Crossing over reveals a waste's difficult journey home

You know, in this ancient time when information was blocked, learning any skill was not an easy thing.

Now that the government can teach, Liu Qinghe feels that it would be foolish for them not to hurry up and learn.

The most important thing is that their Dashan Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides. There are plenty of big rocks on the mountains, so there is no shortage of materials for making stone mills. Making it themselves can save a lot of money.

After thinking it over, Liu Qinghe and his party followed the clerk to the Shaofu's government office.

Shaofu was one of the Nine Ministers of Daxia, mainly responsible for managing the emperor’s private property and some handicrafts.

The stone mills now placed at the city gate and used in the grain-controlling office of the Internal Affairs Bureau were all made here.

The clerk took Liu Qinghe and others into the government office, handed them over to another clerk and left.

Then, Liu Qinghe and others were brought to a middle-aged man who was busy.

"Master Yu, the person who is learning the stone mill has arrived."

Yu Yuan, who was called Master Yu Yu, didn't even raise his head. He studied the pile of wood under his hands and said, "Go study over there, don't disturb me."

Yu Yuan's tone was very bad, but the clerk did not show any dissatisfaction. He led his men through a door and into a large courtyard.

The courtyard of the Shaofu was much larger than the office of the Neishi Prefecture.

There were a lot of wood and stones piled up on the edge of the yard, some tools placed in the middle, and many people were busy with their own work.

This time, Liu Qinghe and others followed the clerk to a young man.

"Master Xiao Yu, Master Yu asked me to bring these people over."

Yu Chong, who was called Little Master Yu, looked up and asked, "Are there any stonemasons or carpenters among you?"

As the leader, Liu Qinghe stood up and responded.

"Your Excellency, there are no professional stonemasons or carpenters in this village, but these two men know a little bit about carpentry."

Hearing that someone knew something, Yu Chong was obviously happier.

"As long as you know how to do it, don't delay, start learning now!"

In this way, the villagers of Dashan Village began to learn how to make stone mills and stone rollers.

While studying, they heard some things they didn't know from the clerks and craftsmen present.

For example, when they first arrived, the Lord Yu they met was the Shaofu, and the one who arranged for them to learn how to make stone mills was the Shaofu's son.

For example, the Shaofu made something called a fire bed?

It is said that in winter, the kang only needs a little firewood to warm up the house, and there is no need to worry about being frozen.

However, this was not the most exciting news they had heard. The most exciting news was that His Majesty the Emperor had recently been visited by a dragon in his dream!

The dragon of Daxia told Your Majesty in a dream that the Huns used vicious means to rob Daxia of its fortune, causing continuous disasters to Daxia.

Because the dragon was fighting against the evil god of the Huns, he was unable to take care of the people of Daxia.

Therefore, in order to prevent the people from having no protection and freezing to death in the winter, the emperor specially allowed the people to use the black stone used to refine auspicious gold to keep warm.

As for whether using the black stone would cause death, the dragon also said that as long as you follow its instructions, you will not die.

If you don't follow the dragon's instructions, you will be courting death and no one can save you.

Like the emperor of their own dynasty, the people of Daxia are also quite divided.

On the one hand, they listened to the emperor and were full of doubts about sorcerers and demons, but on the other hand, it did not stop them from believing that dragons really existed in their world.

Why has no one ever seen a dragon?

Everyone would answer that the dragon is a god, how could it be possible for everyone to see it? At the very least, only the emperor, who is called the Son of Heaven, could see it.

Someone else asked, why haven’t we heard of anyone seeing a dragon before?

More people spoke up. During the hundred years of war, who could be called a true emperor?

The previous Chen Dynasty? Haha, how could the dragon be willing to see an emperor who died from taking elixirs?

What about the emperors before the Chen Dynasty?

I’m sorry, but for the common people whose average life expectancy is less than 40 years old, who have no education and don’t read history books, I really don’t know.

It can only be said that one bad rot spoils the whole barrel, and Emperor Wei You affected the entire emperor of the Chen Dynasty.

This made all the emperors of the Chen Dynasty leave a bad impression in the hearts of the people.

Now, His Majesty the Emperor of Daxia can be called a good emperor.

Look, didn’t the dragon appear in your majesty’s dream?

Their Majesty is indeed the Son of Destiny, and it is their duty to believe in and protect Him.

It can be said that under Jiang Tuan's enlightenment, Jiang Qi's propaganda of the dream theory to the people directly achieved three goals with one stone.

First, let the people accept and use Black Stone psychologically.

Second, arouse the people's hatred towards the Huns.

The Central Plains has been in turmoil for too long, and the people are longing for peace more than ever before, but the Huns are there, and they have no choice but to fight them.

If we rashly go to war with the Huns, the people will definitely not be in a good mood to fight, which will greatly affect morale.

Jiang Qi said that the Huns were plotting and scheming to absorb Daxia's luck, which led to the dynasty's constant disasters.

The people of Daxia had long been fed up with a small disaster every three days and a major disaster every five days, and they hoped every day that God would bring good weather and good harvests.

Now, they are praying here, but the Huns over there actually want to bring them more natural disasters. Their vital interests are involved, so how can they not be angry?

Before the emperor could say anything, many of them were already thinking about how they could directly kill the Huns and their evil god.

Third, Jiang Qi's method made the people like him even more.

An emperor who can be blessed by the dragon must be a good person, and there is a high probability that he will live a good life.

In addition to the above three benefits, Jiang Qi can also use this method to blur the existence of Jiang Tuan.

In the future, if the other party does something that is difficult to explain clearly, just give the credit to the dragon, and the people will be able to accept it more quickly.

When Jiang Qi proposed this to his ministers and publicized it to the people, the ministers all thought there was no problem.

Because in their opinion, Your Majesty's method is very good, and Your Majesty did not lie completely.

For example, aren’t dreams about gods real?

When the superior is convinced of something and publicizes it to the inferiors, it is easier for the inferiors to accept it.

The emperor and his ministers all believed in the existence of gods. When they used the name of gods to promote their ideas, the information the people received was accurate and firm, making it easier for them to understand and agree.

Just like now, Jiang Qi told his ministers about the gods’ dreams, and most of the people believed it. When they actually use the black stone, they will probably believe it completely.

The villagers of Dashan Village are basically all supporters of Jiang Qi, and they believe his words more than other people.

After hearing the widely spread news, they were cursing the Huns while asking how to get the black stone and how to build a kang.
