Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

"How is it possible? Heaven and earth!"

Ma Zhou was a bachelor, and he grinned and swore.

It is impossible to admit it, not even in this life!
A huge balloon rose up in the backyard of Li's mansion, and this scene was soon noticed by the people nearby.

Most people were also quite excited, especially when they saw those figures in the air, they were extremely excited.

"It's Master Guo!"

"And there is the talented Martha!"

"them.…"

These people were very excited and waved and shouted loudly in that direction.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Guo Shoujing must have been proud of his status and would not make a fool of himself no matter what...
He stood in the hanging basket with a faint smile on his face. He waved at the common people with a nonchalant look.

However, Ma Zhou noticed that this guy's body was still shaking slightly. It was obvious that he was smiling on the surface, but he was cursing in his heart!
When the hot air balloon rose to halfway above Yanyun City, they were finally able to overlook the entire ancient city. Guo Shoujing and the other two all took a deep breath.

"I never thought that there would be such a beautiful scenery in Yanyun City!" Guo Shoujing said with a smile.

"Hahaha! This trip was not in vain!" Yue Fei also smiled.

After that, he could just hold a banquet and brag about it to those shameless guys…
Let them envy you, it’s exciting just thinking about it!
"He....Fuck him..."

Eunuch Cao was trembling with fear, curled up in a corner, his face a little pale. He looked like this after secretly glancing down a few times.

Weak, pitiful and helpless!
A gust of wind blew, causing the hot air balloon to shake a bit. Eunuch Cao trembled even more violently, and he muttered something to himself, but no one knew what he was saying.

"This father-in-law is afraid of heights? Hehe! Interesting..."

Ma Zhou squinted his eyes, smiled, and muttered something.

Since the establishment of the Hundred Cavalry Division, Eunuch Cao has held great power and has become a popular figure in Yanyun City.

And Ma Zhou is even more aware of the role of the Hundred Riders!
If one day he is bullied, he will just throw Eunuch Cao into the air. He will be scared to death!

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Why don't you get up and take a look at this beautiful scenery?"

Yue Fei was also a jerk. He walked over with a grin and tried to "help" Eunuch Cao up.

"roll roll roll!"

Eunuch Cao was like an angry daughter-in-law. He kept kicking his feet and holding on to the edge of the hanging basket with one hand to avoid being dragged over.

"Hey, don't worry..."

Yue Fei smiled slyly and started playing around.

"call!"

Another gust of wind blows by!

In early spring, the wind was quite strong and frequent, and the hanging basket was shaking violently. Eunuch Cao held on to the rope tightly and was about to cry...
"All right!"

Guo Shoujing spoke.

"What are you doing in the sky? What if you fall from such a high place? "Bang~', there's no body left! Just a bloody mess, just like..."

Ma Zhou is painting.

You shut up too!

Guo Shoujing was also frightened and said viciously.

"Forehead…."

Ma Zhou stuck out his tongue and stood aside obediently.

Yue Fei didn't dare to make any more noise. Not long after, he picked up a strange thing and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"A telescope, or a clairvoyance. To play it like this..." he explained.

"So magical?"

Yue Fei was surprised!
Guo Shoujing was also very interested. He and Yue Fei each held one and started playing according to Ma Zhou's teachings.

After seeing that he could even read the words on the shop signs on Zhuque Street clearly, Guo Shoujing's breathing became rapid:

"nice one!"

A telescope and a hot air balloon...

Isn't this what is called clairvoyance? It is completely capable of foreseeing opportunities on the battlefield! .
This further strengthened Guo Shoujing's determination to tinker with the Academy of Gewu. In fact, the establishment of the Baiqi Division was also to recruit talents in this area from all over the world.

"Is the production process of these two things complicated?" he asked with a sharp look in his eyes.

"The hot air balloon cannot be made yet! As for the telescope, the Ministry of Industry can also make it, but it requires crystal pieces and colored glass, which is more expensive. However..."

"We can make those things ourselves in the future! As long as we solve the problem of firing temperature, we can make a lot of colored glaze."

"The raw material is just a pile of sand. You can get as much as you want. It's worthless!"

Ma Zhou said.

Crystal pieces and colored glaze are actually what we call glass. There is not much difference between them and they are very common things in later generations.

However, productivity was extremely low these days, and making glass was a...
A very rare and precious technical job!
Things are rare and valuable!

Those Hu merchants like to sell these things to Dayan the most. The prices are extremely high, and often there is no demand for them.

In fact, Dayan’s production level is definitely one of the best in today’s era!
Take the Mo Dao and Tang Dao for example. Even in the future with the information explosion, there is no way to reproduce them, and there are many types of armor.

Mingguang, Suozi, Shanwen, Xilin…
There are all kinds of them, all of which embody the craftsmanship spirit of this era!

Yue Fei narrowed his eyes.

He always felt as if he had grasped something, but he couldn't figure out why. His intuition was that this kid
It’s definitely not as simple as it seems!
Where exactly is the flaw?
"Glass? Not valuable? Interesting..." Guo Shoujing smiled.

The matter of the Yan League has been put on the agenda, and each family has been informed long ago. It is estimated that everyone will meet in the next two days to discuss the specific matters.

Colored glaze is a hot-selling commodity among various countries and can still be sold at a good price!
The two did not talk any more. Guo Shoujing absolutely trusted this kid Ma Zhou.

With the telescope, Yue Fei became much more obedient. He stuck his butt out, looked around, and exclaimed from time to time.

That old face was even more delighted!
Guo Shoujing was also having a lot of fun playing nearby!
This trip was not in vain, at least I saw these two magical objects, and according to Ma Zhou, the potential of "Gewuyuan" is very large and can play a huge role in the future.

The Academy of Gewu was actually a very broad concept, similar to the Academy of Sciences in later generations. It was also a pioneer, a simple attempt.

When the time is right, we will also separate out weapons research institutes, 'agriculture institutes', etc. By subdividing the things used in different industries, we can be more targeted. After all, every profession has its own specialization.…

It took the weakling eunuch Cao more than half an hour to finally recover and be able to look down through the telescope.

But his face still looks ugly!

It was not until dusk that Ma Zhou lowered the hot air balloon; during this period, of course, it attracted a lot of onlookers.

down to earth!

Eunuch Cao then breathed a sigh of relief, and his pale face improved somewhat, but his legs were still shaking a little.

Yue Fei was quite excited, and he patted Cao Gonggong on the shoulder and made some jokes, with a lot of…
A description of the scene I just saw in the air!
What good intentions could this old man have?
It's nothing more than a threat!
Eunuch Cao's expression became even uglier, especially when he heard that there was a high possibility that he would fall from such a high place and leave no body left, he felt even more frightened.

I will never go there again. There is no way I can go to heaven no matter what!

As these two geeks walked aside, Guo Shoujing chatted with Ma Zhou, mostly talking about the Jixia Academy.

Time is still moving slowly, and in the blink of an eye, it is already mid-May.

The weather is extremely hot and there is a severe drought in the Gyeonggi area!
Ordinary people depend on the weather for their livelihood. They only hope for good weather all year round. If they encounter severe drought or flood, it is very likely that they will suffer from drought for the whole year.
Nothing gained!

When people were in panic, the palace also distributed the extra potato mushrooms to

The common people also told them to bury them in the ground and plant them well.

Most people are still taking a wait-and-see attitude towards this thing called "potato"!
But with the help of Ma Zhou, Guo Shoujing, Li Kuan and others, they all followed the instructions and planted the potato seedlings into the soil.

The population is relatively sparse nowadays, but there are still many farmlands. It is impossible to cultivate all the land with such a small number of people, so it is normal to have idle land.

Fengle Village, on the outskirts of Chang'an.

A thin, white-haired old man sat on the edge of the field, staring at the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, sighing.

He has been dealing with crops all his life, and his ancestors for more than ten generations were also farmers. With this profound experience, he understands one thing:
After a long drought, there will be locusts!
locust
How long has it been since we last saw these man-eating creatures?
I don't know how long it took, but a group of people came back from the village happily.

Everyone was holding a lot of things in their hands.

These people have just returned from the market in Yanyun City!

"Uncle Tong, what are you looking at? Why are you so absorbed in it?"

A villager, carrying a few bags of things, also passed by the field and shouted.

The old man didn't give a direct answer, but just glanced at him, shook his head and sighed: "This winter is not going to be easy..."

If there is a locust plague, we can use the stored food to replace it in the short term, but how will we live in the future?
Especially in winter!
I’m afraid there will be no harvest this year. Without food, we won’t be able to survive the winter!

"father?"

A yellow-faced man came over, holding a bunch of things in his hands, and smiled innocently:
"I brought back those potato seedlings. His Majesty also said that we must take good care of them! Which field should we plant them in?"

"His Majesty?"

Tong Bo frowned, and Li Kuan's face appeared in his mind. His eyes became deep and he murmured:
"He is a man of great ability!"

The old man raised his head and said solemnly:
"Erniu, plant all these potato seedlings in the two acres of land next to our pond! You and your wife don't have to work on other fields anymore, just take good care of the new crops!"

"South of the village? Dad, those two acres are all excellent farmland! Don't we have to keep them to grow spinach, coriander, etc.?"

Erniu curled his lips, still somewhat reluctantly, and muttered:

"I have already promised Xiaoru that I will buy her a new set of clothes before the New Year."

He originally planned to grow some vegetables and fruits on the two acres of land, which he could then sell in the city for money. When he had some spare money saved during the New Year, he could use it to make new clothes for his wife.

Even though life is very difficult, at least there is still some hope!

Now that my father has made arrangements like that, isn't that just causing trouble?

"Dad! These potato sprouts..."

He seemed very unhappy, looked around again, and whispered:
"Your Majesty, you have never worked in the fields, so how can you know anything? Everyone is just thinking about planting casually, and has no intention of managing it. Let's..."

Or we can plant them together in the fields in the north of the village to save trouble!
In the entire Fengle Village, the land in the north of the village is the most barren and has not been cultivated much. Most villagers are content with the status quo and are unwilling to work hard on potato seedlings.

When they returned from Yanyun City, the group discussed planting all the potato seedlings in the north of the village, leaving it to fate as to what would grow.

To put it bluntly, many people don't take it seriously at all. After all, even those people who live in luxury know how to dig for food in the fields.
"Your Majesty would never make a move without a purpose! How can a coward like you guess his ability?" Tong Bo shook his head.

"But, Dad..." Erniu still wanted to fight for it.

"Shut up!"

The old man seemed angry and glared at them fiercely: "Just do as I tell you! This year is not peaceful, they must have noticed something..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a thoughtful look: "Don't think you know much. The one who can sit in that position is definitely not an ordinary person."

After a moment of silence, Erniu was honest to begin with. Seeing that his father had made up his mind, he could not say much and could only nod:

“I understand…”

Seeing him like this, Tong Bo sighed, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Erniu, this matter is not that simple. Maybe..."

The old man looked at the blazing sun in the sky, his eyes became even more cloudy, and his face became gloomy:

"A great disaster is about to come."

There were tens of thousands of potato seedlings distributed this time, most of which were surplus. After all, the power of the palace was limited.
Thousands of acres of fertile land were reclaimed, and taking care of them kept Empress Chang Sun busy!
Although there was not much response from the public, there were still people like Tong Bo, an old farmer who had been dealing with the loess earth all his life and noticed something.

Generally speaking, two to three percent of the people take it seriously, and each of them plans to plant the crops well, hoping for a good harvest.

But most of them didn't care much about it and just threw it into the ground without putting much effort into it.

Time is still passing, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and some land has been cracked by the sun.
……

Du family.

Because of Yue Fei’s extensive propaganda, people said that going to heaven was so much fun and exciting, and that it was worth the life on earth.

He looks so awesome!

Thus…..
How could others not be stimulated?

Everyone was clamoring to go up and take a look!
