I fought back after reselling my engagement
Chapter 238 Encouraging Innovation
Fox Erlang used magic and chased closely behind.
Su Zhen arrived at the Fairy Lake in Beiliao. Over a year had passed, and the entire lake was surrounded by salt fields and water wheels. In the distance there were salt-making factories with rows of large pots stacked with firewood. Further away, a steady stream of civilians were moving firewood, and soldiers were escorting carts of official salt away.
A mountain villa was built five miles away from the salt fields. It was filled with rows of tents and a watchtower, and was guarded by soldiers.
Su Zhen came from the air, and some people saw him. The guards in the watchtower sounded the horn repeatedly.
The horn blew, "Fairy Shuzhen has arrived! Fairy Shuzhen has arrived!"
As soon as one of them made a discovery, the guards in the other three watchtowers also began to shout.
Soon, all the officials, craftsmen, and nobles in the tents came out, knelt on the ground and shouted, "We respectfully welcome the Fairy Shu Zhen!"
Su Zhen fell to the ground, "Where is the weaver?"
Two green-robed officials stood there, leading a line of craftsmen, and said, "Here."
"Okay, go to the loom group. I've been very busy lately and need to catch up."
After entering the loom group, Su Zhen took out two looms with a flick of his finger. "These two are the third-generation looms that I developed and improved with the craftsmen of Da Qi when I was reincarnated as Princess Jiaxing of Da Qi. After awakening my memory, I brought Da Qi's craftsmen to develop and improve them."
She pointed at the void and a dam appeared, which could be impacted by water force. "A skilled weaver can take care of twelve looms like this at the same time, which means that the efficiency of manpower and weaving is increased by twelve times..."
She stood here and began to explain the benefits and convenience of this loom. After a moment, the loom was on the ground. She continued, "What you have to do now is to convert this loom that can weave silk into a loom that can weave woolen cloth.
All machines serve the development of mankind and should be adapted to local conditions. Daqi grows mulberry trees and raises silkworms, producing a lot of silk, while the most common material in the north is wool. Wool is spun into yarn, and then the wool yarn is woven into woolen cloth. "
She then drew a spinning machine, which was a machine for spinning cotton thread.
While explaining the principles, she also talked about her ideas for transformation.
"To facilitate your research, I will give you one more. You can disassemble this one, and the other two will be used as references."
Su Zhen looked up at the sky. "The current temperature and climate make it a good time to plant cotton. I brought some cotton to plant. You can ask the farmers to plant it. If it is successful, the North Country can weave it into cotton cloth. This is a thin cloth that absorbs sweat and is easier to promote."
She used magic images to show everyone on the spot, and combined with her explanation, she told the whole process of cotton planting. She also drew the cotton spinning machines, looms, and all the processes of making winter clothes and quilts with cotton in her memory.
The book is illustrated with pictures and texts, so even people who don't understand Da Qi dialect can understand 70% of it.
She brought three pounds of cotton seeds and handed them over to the officials.
Su Zhen raised his hand and said, "We need to pool our wisdom and be innovative. We can make cotton, linen, wool, and silk and linen cloth together. This way, the cloth will be more durable. Pure wool is warm, but it is not durable and cannot withstand wear and tear. Planting linen is imperative."
The official said to the people behind him: "Remember the fairy's words, let the people grow hemp, and then collect a lot of hemp for the craftsmen to study."
A purple-robed official who led the group clasped his fists and said, "Fairy, the Queen Mother and the Emperor have prepared a gift for you. It has been placed in the storehouse. Please accept it."
She loves gifts the most.
Su Zhen said: "If I need it, I will not refuse."
It would be too fake to pretend not to accept it. She is just a straightforward person.
She followed the purple-robed official into a large tent, which turned out to be filled with boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, and gems. The silver was real, the gold was brass, and the jewelry was mostly vulgar items. However, 20% of the gems were various spiritual crystals and elemental crystals. She took these away and found a piece of dog-head gold among them. It weighed five pounds, was a huge piece, and shone with golden light.
Su Zhen took it in his hand and asked, "Where did this come from?"
"This is natural gold, which was discovered in the West Mountain of the Northern Liao Holy Capital."
Su Zhen was silent for a moment: "The gold in the world is not real gold, but brass, which is used to make utensils. The gold in my hand is the real gold. Give me the specific address and go there. If there is a gold mine there, I will teach you the alchemy of Northern Liao."
The gold in the past was not gold, but brass...
So now this is the real gold.
Su Zhen said: "There is no pure gold, and no one is perfect. This gold refers to real gold. No matter how good the color of brass is, it is not real gold. Real gold has a dazzling light like the sun, and real gold is least afraid of being forged in fire, so there is a saying that 'real gold is not afraid of fire'. Only after thousands of hammers and tempers can the most perfect gold be produced. Gold is a symbol of royalty, nobility, and noble status. It is the greatest wealth bestowed by God on mankind..."
The purple-robed official clasped his fists and said, "The place where the real gold and iron were found is in a valley 128 miles northwest of the Holy City."
Su Zhen nodded, "Okay, I'll go take a look. If there really is a gold mine, I'll teach you alchemy and help you build an alchemy workshop."
She stepped out of the big tent and said, "I have no use for the other things. I will return them to the court. Take from the people and give back to the people."
"I will obey the immortal's order!"
This is a true fairy, who only takes useful things, but she only took the gems. There were obviously more beautiful ones but she didn't touch them. Some people don't understand how she chose. Maybe she rejected them all because she thought it would be embarrassing for them?
The purple-robed official pondered and was somewhat confused.
Just as Fox Erlang chased here, the man left again, so he continued to chase.
Su Zhen arrived at the place mentioned by the important minister. It was a valley with strong golden spiritual energy.
Fox Erlang stopped and sniffed hard with his nose: "This place is suitable for big brother to practice."
"There is a gold mine here. The gold in this world is brass, and this is the real gold mine."
Su Zhen confirmed it and found no mistake. She picked out two storage bags of gold ore and took them away. They were all stones with the highest gold content.
Fox Erlang was still selecting and was about to catch up when Su Zhen said, "I'm going to go talk to the official and I'll be back in a while."
Su Zhen returned to the camp outside the snowy mountain and saw the purple-robed official. He drew a picture with his hands, which showed the construction of the alchemy workshop. "This is the alchemy workshop. You ask people to build it according to this. When it is completed, I will go to the alchemy workshop."
No need to ask, there is a gold mine in that place. According to the fairy, real gold is much more valuable than brass.
When Su Zhen returned to the valley, Fox Erlang was still picking up stones there.
"Why did you pick so many?"
"Here you go. When you refine real gold, I can give you a share."
Su Zhen was speechless.
Hu Erlang filled a storage bag and said, "There should be places like this in Da Qi. My eldest brother has been to the most places, so he might know some places." He took out another storage bag.
It’s not over yet. Pick up as many as you want. I’m sure there will be some in Da Qi too. You can just pick up some stones somewhere else when the time comes.
Su Zhen said: "It's time for us to set off."
Fox Erlang seems to be looking for something.
Su Zhen stood aside and didn't urge him any further.
