You became an emperor by letting me AFK.

Amidst the rustling sound, Feng Tianyin felt a slight jolt.

Since the instruction to "install shock absorbers" was given, there has indeed been a significant improvement, especially with the addition of more stable and reliable iron parts. With the addition of more stable rubber and spring components, even long journeys are not too uncomfortable.

The first landmark in the college district is the library.

After continuous repairs and renovations, it has become almost a spectacle.

To prevent fire, the building was primarily constructed of stone, and naturally designed by Feng Tianyin, it was modeled after the Library of Alexandria. The imposing pillars and the exterior walls are engraved with various inscriptions, formulas, and reliefs, profound yet beautiful, showcasing wisdom.

The top is designed like a temple, with red-tiled eaves, towering and majestic, occupying a huge area.

There are 5 levels above ground and 2 levels underground, all following a single theme:

Big.

Special emphasis is placed on floor area ratio, aiming to collect as many books as possible and ensure their proper storage.

Its predecessor was a collection of ancient books containing "Heavenly Bestowed Myths," which formed the profound and extensive "foundation of Chinese studies" for the Great Qian Dynasty.

It still serves as an archive today.

Because it has a large collection of books, it is neighbors with the college.

In Feng Tianyin's view, having one side responsible for storage and the other for analysis is just like the solid-state drive and central processing unit on a computer motherboard. Naturally, this layout is very comfortable.

Me too.

It conforms to the structure of one's own brain, highlighting a scientific approach.

As the carriage passed by, people would greet him, saying, "Greetings, teacher. Greetings to the High Priest."

Here she is more often referred to as her teacher.

Because Feng Tianyin would occasionally come to the academy to give lectures, she could talk about whatever she wanted, from geometry and mathematics to astronomy and geography, from the Hundred Schools of Thought to the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, from strange skills and ingenuity to chemistry and alchemy... No wonder everyone in the academy admired her.

The teacher may seem to speak haphazardly, but in reality, he is knowledgeable about everything and knows nothing.

Those from academic backgrounds all held a deep sense of awe.

Many clerks who had passed the assessment and were awaiting their positions also got used to the administrative work of the Great Qian Dynasty here, so that they wouldn't be completely clueless when they started.

Knowledge gained from books is ultimately superficial.

This is an excellent training platform, and it offers a continuous high-level allowance, along with tax exemptions and exemption from corvée labor, making it extremely attractive.

This is also why Feng Tianyin strictly controls the number.

After her carriage had traveled some distance, she finally encountered Dean Xue, who quickly greeted her:

"My lord, you look so well after returning from that wild land of the grasslands."

"Come on up, I have something to ask you."

He immediately scurried onto the carriage. Although he seemed obsequious, he was actually a breeding genius. He was the first to understand the concept of hybridization and grafting that Feng Tianyin had explained. He had both high intelligence and emotional intelligence.

"How is the experimental field going? Have all the seeds from the Northwest and the grasslands been used?"

"The momentum is good; the effects of volcanic ash on their cultivation are another matter..."

Feng Tianyin nodded upon hearing the report.

"very good."

"In addition, continue to search for the potatoes and corn I mentioned. Perhaps there are clues overseas, even if they are across the ocean."

It's unclear whether the Heavenly Dao planted that kind of crop on this continent, but it's never a bad thing to look for it.

Finding maritime tribes later would also be a viable option.

Although there are different opinions on whether to call them the "Four Kings" or "Five Kings" of American crops, this series is all top-tier, with a complete range of delicious, addictive, and energizing options that are not to be missed. I've been eyeing them for a while now.

Then Feng Tianyin instructed Dean Xue to pay attention to supporting agriculture in the northern desert.

She believes in volcanic ash soil.

However, we may not necessarily believe in the agricultural talent of nomadic peoples and treat them with the same care as a student who is not naturally gifted.

The carriage passed through the massive colonnades of the Great Library, whose exquisitely carved beams and painted rafters seemed to be looking down upon the group as they arrived at the college on the other side—a huge, temple-like building.

One of the oldest buildings in Xiayi.

It developed almost simultaneously with the temple, the political center of the city, and served as the capital's research center.

If a grand library evokes an impression of solemnity and grandeur, then this place counterintuitively highlights a completely different style:

diversification.

There were places with blast furnaces, places where crossbows were assembled, and places mixed with various clay slurries... It even gave people a sense of chaos, with constant noise and a cacophony of voices.

During this time, the scholars continued to discuss, but the impression was not of someone dressed impeccably, but rather of someone with a strong physique.

The body is the capital of the revolution.

Ancient technologies were often primarily practical, while theories were developed through extensive research and exploration. This area is responsible for practical research findings.

They supported the detailed iterations of a series of projects in the Daqian era.

It is at the forefront.

Even without much guidance from Feng Tianyin, she continues to produce intellectual achievements.

She strode through the research area, while the scholars around her merely nodded in greeting, mostly engrossed in their work. No one needed to be bound by formalities; everyone just needed to focus on their tasks.

In the engineering research lab, Gergentana was the one giving orders, and the people around her were cautiously following her commands...

Building blocks?

They reconstructed a church using the simplest wooden sticks, blocks, and other structures, while constantly drawing diagrams, recording data, and keeping up with calculations. As their work accelerated, the church would occasionally collapse.

"Make it sturdy, let's use standing for a thousand years as the standard."

The great prophet was very excited, his eyes shining, while he kept urging the scholars on.

Faced with numerous unexpected demands from Party A, Party B, as a mere employee, had no choice but to accept them one by one, scratching his thinning hair and looking troubled.

I'm destined to be overworked; I've become nothing more than a toy for the client.

"Are you designing a cathedral?"

Feng Tianyin's greeting was met with a nod from Gegentana.

"So you've received my proposal? What do you say? Let's all embark on a project that will last for centuries."

The great prophet approached with a smile, his steps accompanied by a fragrant breeze that enveloped his colleagues.

Feng Tianyin immediately replied:

"Of course, I agree, but it hasn't been signed yet. Because you need a new project that is more scientific, more ambitious, and has more funding, which will be very challenging."

A rare hint of joy appeared on the high priest's face.

When she wasn't giving that terrifying smile, she actually looked quite radiant, and anyone could tell she was happy. Clearly, the cathedral, which was still in its initial design phase, had won the attention of the leader of the Great Qian Dynasty.

To cater to his tastes, it's well known that he has a fondness for religious wonders.

Stable.

Upon hearing this, Gegentana said with great interest, "Actually, I started thinking about it as soon as I arrived in Xiayi. Look at the plan..."

It's no secret that this was all planned in advance. When Feng Tianyin promised to build a private residence, she kept quiet and simply lived in the inner sanctuary of the priests, which was not in line with her usual style.

The former high shaman was the type who liked to make a big show of things.

Of course, they also know how to combine their own interests with the interests of others.

Feng Tianyin, the immediate superior, was naturally the first choice. Since a residence was to be built anyway, it might as well not be too private, to avoid giving others cause for criticism. As a highly emotionally intelligent professional handling religious affairs, he immediately realized that a place of worship for priests should be chosen. The answer was simple:

church.

If I were to build a mansion simply for myself, I would probably face opposition, but if I did it in the name of Heaven, there would be no problem.

As she explained, Feng Tianyin's eyes sparkled.

Those familiar with it know it's being calculated.

The high priest is extremely busy and truly capable of handling a vast amount of affairs. He is skilled in planning and calculation, and for example, he is currently checking the feasibility.

In fact, Feng Tianyin was indeed brainstorming and began working with enormous computing power.

Plop plop!

As her head began to burn, she took a huge design drawing and revised it, marking and planning it again with exquisite strokes. Her slender hands were more precise than a compass, completing the lines with only millimeters in precision.

The surrounding scholars were amazed and frequently glanced at him.

It's incredibly difficult to witness the High Priest's full-fledged calculations. Clearly, he has put in a lot of effort. You can see the intricate drawings being drawn at a speed visible to the naked eye. Pencils are worn down one by one, yet the lines remain strong and decisive, truly a work of art.

A cathedral was quickly sketched out in cross-section, overhead view, and side view... as if I had really seen it before.

"Make way, hurry up and get some ice water from the cellar."

The familiar priests already knew what to do; given Feng Tianyin's current hot-headed state, she needed to be cooled down.

after awhile.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief after using up who knows how many pencils.

The breath was scalding hot, as if exhaling a stream of heat, which was then met with the freshly served ice water, causing ripples to spread across its surface. The next moment, the girl's pretty face reflected in the water magnified rapidly—

Feng Tianyin plunged her head directly into the ice water, instantly bubbling and releasing a burst of steam.

The scene resembled a quenching process, with a large cloud of steam rising from it.

A moment later, she raised her head with a look of joy. The ice water wet her eyelashes, and her large purple eyes sparkled with a touch of mystery, captivating the heart.

I do indeed like to take a cold shower after large-scale computations.

Cool.

The priestesses nearby immediately brought dry towels to wipe the girl's long black and white hair. Unless her spiritual energy caused a change, Feng Tianyin's hair was usually black with white highlights.

To be honest, everyone is also puzzled as to how it turned out this way; it's clearly due to unnatural factors.

The high priest has had white hair since his elevation and resurrection.
