Chapter 16 Golden Wind Jade Dew
At the beginning of the experiment, Yang Goudan pulled the plow in front, and Yue Shan held the plow behind.

However, Yue Shan didn't know that just the first step made Changsun Wuji's eyes widen.

Changsun Wuji is not a person who does not distinguish between grains and grains. As a person with ideals and ambitions, he took the initiative to experience the hardships of the people.

In the past, with a straight shaft plow, not only the person pulling in front exerted force, but also the person supporting behind had to push hard on the plowshare, so that the plow could be plowed deeply.If the man holding the plow is not strong enough, he can only plow one layer of land.

But now, Yue Shan barely exerted any strength, just holding the plow lightly to prevent it from tipping over.When Yang Goudan pulled hard, the plowshare sank deeply into the ground, even deeper than a plow with a straight shaft.

What does this mean?The weak or the elderly and children can also help the plow.This saves a lot of labor.

If one family saves one strong manpower, how much power can be saved by millions of households across the country.

And how many more fields can be reclaimed and cultivated by these manpower, and how much more grain will be produced every year.

With this understanding, Changsun Wuji observed more carefully.

Soon he made a new discovery, that is, there was an extra wooden stick on Qu Yuanli's armrest.When Yue Shan lifted the stick lightly, the plow would be shallower, and if he pressed lightly, the plow would be deeper.

This shows that the person who supports the plow can grasp the depth more flexibly.

Then he couldn't see any more.After all, he also came from aristocratic background in Luoluo, and he only knew about farming, but never worked in it himself.

But based on the fact that it can save a strong man's labor, it is well deserved to say that this thing is a god.

Not only Changsun Wuji was surprised, but Yang Goudan who was pulling the plow was even more surprised. As a farmer, he saw more things and had many questions to ask.Just looking at Changsun Wuji and the others, the question was scared back.

After running back and forth to Yueshan twice, I stopped. After all, it was just an experiment, and I didn't really want to cultivate the land. I just made two trips to confirm that there was no problem.If you drag it down, it will open up wasteland for other people's homes.

Originally he wanted to show off to Zhangsun Wuji, but before he opened his mouth, Zhangsun Wuji asked eagerly: "This..."

"Qu Yuanli." Seeing that he couldn't remember his name, Yue Shan reminded him friendly.

"You really made Quyuanli?"

"No." Yue Shan shook his head and said, "My master told me, I just built it according to the method he taught me."

"Did he teach anyone else besides you?"

"I don't know." Yue Shan knew why he asked such a question, but because of his relationship with the 'old Taoist', he could only answer that he didn't know.

"Oh." Changsun Wuji was very disappointed, but felt that this was a normal situation.

It was just a coincidence that Yue Shan saved the old Taoist priest and was taught something, not a successor, so it is normal to know limited knowledge.

It's just that if you want to dedicate the treasure to the court in this way, I'm afraid it will be a waste of time.I'm afraid it will be miserable if the righteous master comes to the door just after offering it here.

Afterwards, Changsun Wuji asked some more about Qu Yuanli.However, Yue Shan was not much better than him. Apart from knowing how to change the straight shaft into a curved shaft, he didn't know anything else.

After all, farming in the countryside has been semi-mechanized since he was sensible, and he has never personally pulled a plow to plow the land.

Of course, he still knows some mechanical principles involved in changing the straight shaft to the curved shaft.But there is no way to tell this group of indigenous people about these things, so they can only ask questions.

His ignorance made Changsun Wuji even more sure of the existence of the 'old Taoist'.

Seeing that he couldn't ask more questions, Changsun Wuji stopped asking, and instead said: "I want to dedicate Quyuanli to the king, what do you think?"

"That's exactly what I wanted to do. I was still worrying about how to deliver it to the King of Qin just now. Since the eldest grandson Langjun is willing to help, I am very grateful." Yue Shan said happily.

Changsun Wuji nodded, asked his subordinates to take Qu Yuanli, and said to Yue Shan: "Since that's the case, then I won't stay any longer, and I will send this thing to the king."

"Then I won't keep the eldest grandson Langjun. Yue Shan has recorded this feeling, and there will be rewards in the future." Yue Shan cupped his hands.

He didn't say anything about the future, but he didn't refuse to refuse if he had an order.This is the eldest grandson, the old fox, and it would be too long to say such things to him.

As for generous rewards... how generous it is depends on his mood.

Obviously, Changsun Wuji didn't see this.One is the advantage of Yue Shan's age, which made him subconsciously relax his vigilance.The second is that it has only been six years since Wude, and he is not the eldest grandson prime minister who later ruled the world.

Letting Yue Shan, Li Shimin and others get to know each other when their lives were at a low point is Yue Shan's luck, and it is also the luck of Li Shimin and others.

Fortunately for Yue Shan, Li Shimin and others were not the rulers of the later Tang Empire, and they did not develop the mentality of looking down on the world.Let him enter the opponent's sight as a country boy.

In a few years, it is unlikely that such an encounter will happen today.

Fortunately for Li Shimin and others, it was precisely because they were willing to look directly at this country boy that they gained the favor of a traveler.

One of the two sides is about to take charge of the huge central empire, and the other is in charge of the historical trend of the next millennium.Combined together, it corresponds to Qin Guan's phrase: once the golden wind and the jade dew meet, they will win the countless people in the world.

Closer to home, after the two parties bid farewell, Changsun Wuji hurried back to Chang'an City, while Yue Shan was preparing to return home.

However, Yang Goudan, who had been timid before, immediately returned to normal when he saw Changsun Wuji and others leave.He grabbed Yue Shan's hand and said excitedly, "Then...then...then...the plow, the plow is..."

Too excited, he stuttered for a long time without saying anything.But Yue Shan had already guessed what he meant, and said with a smile, "You mean the plow, right?"

Yang Goudan nodded sharply.

"It's called Quyuanli, and it was taught to me by my master."

"Can you let me build one too." Yang Goudan asked expectantly. After speaking, he also felt that his request was too much, and immediately said: "I can build you a new one... that fish I will No more."

Yue Shan shook his head and said: "No, you saw those people just now, they are my friends. The leader is Qin Wang's uncle."

"That's the...second prince, King Qin?" Yang Goudan asked in surprise.

As a native of Longxi, Yang Goudan knew about Li Yuan's family.After all, that is the pride of their Longxi people.

"It's the second son Li Shimin." Yue Shan said bluntly.

This name is called one less time, and if he calls it again after he becomes the emperor, he will be exiled for a crime.So Yue Shan decided to take this opportunity to call more times.

"How do you know King Qin's... uncle?" Yang Goudan asked in disbelief.

Seeing the county magistrate from a distance can show off for a long time, and being in close contact with people in Prince Qin's mansion, and being the uncle of Prince Qin... This has exceeded the limit of Yang Goudan's imagination.

Before today, I didn't know King Qin's uncle, but I knew King Qin.His brother-in-law came to see me on the order of King Qin.

Of course, Yue Shan just thought about it in his heart and didn't say it out loud.

Because getting to know Changsun Wuji was already a great stimulus for Yang Goudan, telling him that he knew King Qin... probably he would think that Yue Shan was bragging.

"King Qin's uncle took Qu Yuanli away and said that he wanted to give it to King Qin. It already belongs to King Qin. We can't build Quyuanli without his consent," Yue Shan said.
