Conferred Gods: Master Tongtian is my master
Chapter 60: National Fortune Soars
A few days later, Luo Shu invented the curved plow of later generations.
That day, Luo Shu, holding a newly made curved plow, brought Wen Zhong and others to an open space.
"Brother, is this the curved plow you asked the carpenter to make in recent days?"
Luo Shu showed a look of joy and said with a smile:
"Yes, this is the real curved plow that I drew earlier. I brought you here today to show you the effect of the curved plow!"
"Senior brother, what is the use of the curved plow?" Wen Zhong asked curiously.
"I'll show you first, and then you'll understand what this thing is for!"
Then, Luo Shu looked at Xiao Bai and said meaningfully:
"Xiaobai, change back to your original form. I need your help in using this curved plow!"
"Oh! Yes, Master!"
Upon hearing this, although Xiaobai was confused about how he could help, he still followed Luoshu's instructions and revealed his true form as the White Tiger.
Luo Shu looked at Xiaobai in front of him, then fixed the bracket of the curved plow on the white tiger's body, installed the plowshare under the bracket, and adjusted the depth and angle.
Seeing this, Xiaobai said aggrievedly:
"Master, you are treating me like an ordinary ox plowing the fields!"
Luo Shu fixed the curved plow and said with a smile:
"Xiao Bai, we don't have any cows. Besides, this is not an ordinary thing. If it succeeds, it will be a good thing for the people!"
"Alright! Xiaobai, pull hard along the side of this farmland. I will hold the curved plow from behind and control the depth and angle of the plowing!"
"Yes, Master!"
After saying that, Xiaobai walked forward along the side of the farmland, dragging the curved plow without using any spiritual power.
Luo Shu was holding the curved plow from behind, and soon, a piece of farmland was renovated!
Wen Zhong and others were amazed when they saw this scene. If this was produced in batches and allowed the people to use it when farming, it would definitely save animal power, reduce physical exertion, and at the same time improve farming efficiency.
Luo Shu untied the rope that was fixed on Xiao Bai, allowing Xiao Bai to restore his innate Taoist body. He looked at Wen Zhong and said:
"Junior brother, how are you?"
"Brother, you can present this item to the king, and have the workshop produce it in batches and distribute it to the people for use in production!"
Luo Shu heard this and said:
"In that case, Junior Brother will present this item to the King of Shang!"
After saying that, he gave the curved plow to Wen Zhong.
"Yes, Brother, I will enter the palace right away!"
Wen Zhong took the curved plow, rode on the black unicorn, walked into the palace with a happy face, and presented the curved plow to King Zhou.
Within the main hall.
Wen Zhong: "Your Majesty, this is a curved plow. I am offering it to you, my brother. I hope that the people of the Shang Dynasty will have easier farming and a better harvest."
King Zhou sat upright on the dragon throne, his eyes sweeping over the curved plow in Wen Zhong's hand, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.
King Zhou: "Oh? Made by Luo Guoshi? What's so special about it?"
Wen Zhong: "Your Majesty, this plow is ingeniously designed. It is lighter than traditional plows and twice as efficient."
"The use of this plow by the people will greatly reduce the pain of labor, increase the speed of farming, and bring innovation to Dashang agriculture."
When King Zhou heard this, his face showed joy and he nodded. He was surprised at what Wen Zhong said about the curved plow.
King Zhou: "Since it was made by Luo Guoshi, it must be a good thing that benefits the country and the people. Then order a large number of them to be produced and distributed to the people, so that they can try out the practicality of this curved plow."
Upon hearing this, Wen Zhong nodded in agreement with King Zhou.
Wen Zhong: "Thank you, Your Majesty! I will live up to your trust and ensure that the curved plows are distributed to the people as soon as possible, so that they can feel the Your Majesty's grace."
King Zhou smiled and waved his hand, signaling Wen Zhong to leave.
Wen Zhong left the palace with joy, went back and talked to Luo Shu, and then began to arrange the production and distribution of the curved plow.
Soon after, the curved plow became widely used in the Shang Dynasty.
When people used this new plow, work became much easier and the speed of farming was greatly improved.
The agriculture of the Shang Dynasty was thus revitalized with new vitality, and the people were extremely grateful to Luoshu.
……
A few months later, the first wave of harvest came from crops such as potatoes and sweet potatoes that were commonly grown in Chaoge City.
With the bumper harvest of the first wave of crops, the entire Chaoge City and its surrounding areas were immersed in an atmosphere of joy.
Shining in the sun, people's faces are filled with happy smiles, which is their yearning for future life.
"Oh, look at this potato, how big it has grown! And look at this sweet potato, it's also very pleasing to the eye!"
Aunt Wang held potatoes in one hand and sweet potatoes in the other, her eyes sparkling with excitement, and exclaimed:
"Thank you, Master Luo! We have a great harvest this year!"
"Yeah yeah!"
Uncle Li took over the conversation with a satisfied smile on his face.
"This is all thanks to the crops provided by our Luo Guoshi and the curved plow. This curved plow is really useful and has greatly improved our farming efficiency."
"That's right, that's right!"
Xiao Liu also excitedly interrupted:
"I still remember this time last year, we were still worried about the harvest."
"Now, with crops like potatoes and the curved plow, we no longer have to worry about running out of food."
"Haha, you're right!"
The people around echoed in response, with laughter and cheers rising one after another.
Such scenes were played out in every corner of Chaoge City, and the air of the entire city was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
At this time, the officials were kneeling in the magnificent palace, holding the report of the harvest in their hands, with solemn and excited expressions.
He knew very well that the good news contained in this report was enough to make the entire dynasty rejoice.
"Your Majesty, the crops in Chaoge City have a good harvest, and the people are cheering and rejoicing. This is due to the blessing of God and the wise rule of Your Majesty!"
The official's voice was sonorous and powerful, and every word was filled with admiration and loyalty to King Zhou.
King Zhou was sitting on the dragon throne. When he heard the news, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He took the report, read it carefully, and a satisfied smile gradually appeared on his face.
"Okay! Okay! That's great!"
King Zhou put down the report, stood up, and walked around the hall excitedly.
"The bumper harvest in Chaoge City is only the first step. We will then fully promote it throughout the territory of Dashang. We will make sure that the people will no longer be hungry and will have clothes to wear and food to eat!"
"These are all the credit of Master Luo. It is a blessing for the Shang Dynasty to have him here, and it is also an honor for me as the king!"
Upon seeing this, the official quickly agreed:
"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and you govern the country well. The people will naturally live and work in peace and contentment."
"This bumper harvest is the result of the king's benevolent rule. It is truly a blessing for all the people!"
King Zhou was overjoyed when he heard this. He laughed out loud with a loud and pleasant voice.
He turned to the officer and said:
"Pass the order on to start planting crops in Dashan! We must ensure that the people of Dashan have enough food and clothing!"
The official took the order and left, while King Zhou stood in the palace, gazing at the distant sky.
His heart was filled with joy and pride. He knew that all these achievements were made with the help of Luo Shu, so he was grateful.
He looked forward to the days ahead, expecting more harvests and joy to come to his dynasty.
Grand Master's Mansion.
Luo Shu felt the joy of the people in the city and felt quite accomplished. Although it was all the credit of his ancestors, it was also his own fault.
Looking at the black bird totem emerging in Chaoge City and its flourishing fortune, Luo Shu was satisfied. He knew that the country was only a stone's throw away from improving its fortune by two hundred years.
