Fengshenzhi, I didn't want to fall in love with Nuwa

"Shi Ji, go and help me find Wen Zhong." Zi Shou, who seemed to have found a way, called Wen Zhong over, planning to arrange for the old guy first.

And he must be arranged as soon as possible, otherwise, when Ji Fa makes a comeback, this old guy will probably lead troops to fight again.

Even if he wants to arrange it at that time, the old guy can say that the old minister wants to go to Xiqi to seek rebellion.

"Old minister, see Your Majesty!"

When the Grand Master heard that Zi Shou was summoned to see him, he hurried to the deer platform. At this time, he admired Zi Shou Nai very much.

Whether it is the control of the battle situation or the application of formations, they are far superior to themselves, and I don't know where the king has learned them all these years.

"You don't have to be polite, old master." Zishou nodded to signal him to sit aside, and then gave Wen Zhong the two blueprints on the table.

Wen Zhong turned it over and saw a blueprint depicting a machine with an ingenious structure. On it were written three words in oracle bone script: textile machine.

Another drawing, also of machines, says steam engine.

After a while, Wen Zhong raised his head with a dazed look: "My lord, what is this?"

Although he is proficient in everything from literary to martial arts, the machines on these two blueprints are quite complicated, and he couldn't see what it was or what it was useful for.

"Master, let me ask you a question. What do we Dashang people wear?" Zishou tapped his fingers on the table and spoke slowly.

Wen Zhong said without thinking: "Clothes made of silk."

"Where did the silk come from?" Zishou asked the second question.

"Planting mulberry and raising silkworms, reeling and weaving silk. Naturally, it was woven by the common people." Wen Taishi raised his head and asked with a surprised look: "Your Majesty, why do you ask this?"

"Old master, let me ask you another question, is there a lot of silk production?" Zishou continued to ask.

Grand Master Wen was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "This old minister doesn't know, there should be quite a lot."

"How many people died of freezing in Dashang? If there is a lot of silk produced, how could people freeze to death?" Zishou asked Grand Master Wen with this question.

Zishou shook his head and continued: "Although our Great Shang Dynasty had a silk weaving industry, and complicated looms and weaving techniques also appeared, the supply was in short supply, and most of the woven cloth was used to pay taxes. So far, our Great Shang Dynasty has no Countless people were frozen to death wearing clothes!"

Zishou didn't care whether Wen Zhong believed it or not, he could believe it anyway, he asked with a compassionate look, "Grand Master Wen, let me ask you again, is our great Shang dynasty strong?"

"Eight hundred princes came to congratulate, of course it is strong." Wen Zhong said without thinking.

"Wrong! Not strong! If it is strong, why would civilians be frozen to death? The people are strong and the country is strong, but if the people are not strong, how can the country be strong?" Zi Shou asked rhetorically.

Wen Zhong was stunned, his eyes widened, and he muttered a sentence: "If the people are strong, the country is strong, but if the people are not strong, how can the country be strong?"

"I have an important task for you." Seeing that he was almost bluffed, Zishou waved his hand, picked up the two blueprints from the table, and said in a low voice: "I want you to find a craftsman and take the blueprints Create these two things! Don't underestimate these two things, these are blueprints that can make the people stronger and the country truly stronger!"

Wen Zhong narrowed his eyes, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

Before Wen Zhong could ask, Zishou pointed to the drawing of the loom and said, "The first drawing is to solve the problem that the people have no clothes to wear and are frozen to death. This thing is called Jenny... Zishou loom. It is used to weave Cloth."

Zishou had the cheek to change the Jenny Weaving Machine into his own name, "As long as this machine is built, the weaving of cloth will be at least three times faster!"

Although Wen Zhong didn't have any concept of more than three times, he also thought it was amazing.

"This blueprint contains a tool called a steam engine. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it, just make it. This is a tool to make the common people stronger, and it is also a tool to make the country stronger." Zishou said in a low tone: "The old lady Teacher, I only want you to manufacture these two things, and find ways to mass produce these two things and promote their use."

"Gu not only wants eight hundred princes to come to congratulate, but also saints from all directions to congratulate! This is an important task, only you can do it!"

……

When Wen Taishi came out of Lutai, he was still in a daze.

"Your Majesty makes weaving machines and steam engines?"

He never thought that the king would ask him to make this kind of thing. Although it showed that the king attached great importance to himself, how could he make it as a general?

But according to what the king said, this is a tool for the great merchants to become stronger—even though Wen Taishi doesn't believe it.

In his opinion, the big merchants do not rely on just two tools to become strong.

"Forget it, show the two blueprints to Empress Sanxiao!"

It just so happened that Sanxiao and Zhao Gongming hadn't returned to the island yet, so Grand Master Wen could only ask them for help.

When he was about to find Zhao Gongming, a black man walked towards him excitedly and almost bumped into him.

Wen Zhong frowned and was about to reprimand him, but when he saw the man clearly, his face turned pale with shock: "King Wu Cheng?! How did you become like this?"

That person is not Huang Feihu, who is it?

It's just that Huang Feihu was tanned at this time, and he was wearing Xiatian clothes. The left and right corners were covered with mud, his feet were not wearing shoes, and he could still smell a muddy smell.

"Haha, Grand Master Wen, look, what is this?" Huang Feihu happily waved the ears of rice on his hand.

Wen Zhong frowned: "What is this?"

Huang Feihu laughed and said: "Hybrid rice, hybrid rice! I have successfully bred it! Thanks to Dragon King, haha, Feihu finally lived up to the king's expectations!"

Wen Zhong had a question mark on his face: "King Wu Cheng, are you... crazy?"

"You're crazy! Old master, I won't tell you anymore, I'll go find the king." Huang Feihu said.

"Wait, Huang Feihu, I have something to ask you." Grand Master Wen grabbed Huang Feihu's hand and said, "Your Majesty gave me a task, asking me to make some kind of textile machine or steam engine."

Huang Feihu froze for a moment, scratched his head and said, "What is that?"

"I don't know what it is, but Your Majesty said it is a powerful weapon." Wen Zhong shook his head.

"A powerful weapon? Let me see!" Huang Feihu's eyes lit up.

"Go, go to my house to see."

"it is good."

……

"Hiss! If what the king said is true, I'm afraid these two things are really powerful weapons!"

Arriving at the Grand Master's Mansion, after hearing what the Grand Master said, Huang Feihu stood up from his chair and looked at the drawings with a shocked expression on his face.

Mistress Sanxiao, Zhao Gongming and others next to her also had question marks on their faces.

"I don't know if it's true or not. It's not difficult to make a textile machine. I still don't have a clue about this so-called steam engine." Wen Zhong shook his head and sighed.

"I'll take the blueprint of the steam engine back to have a look first." Huang Feihu said: "Master, please make the textile machine according to what the king said first! I will find a craftsman to build this one. I believe that the king will not lie to us. "

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you." Grand Master Wen nodded.
