A while ago, she won a lucky draw on the system and won a gift pack of reference books! It included ten books, including "Five Thousand Years of Agricultural Tool Development History," "Tableware Styles," "Pottery Crafts," "How Iron is Tempered into Steel," and so on.

She hasn't had time to read the rest of the books, but she has read the first one.

Speaking of the curved plow, it is said that it can turn directly, save more effort, and plow the ground deeper.

Upon hearing this, Fang Tong reached out and touched his daughter's forehead: "Are you stupid? Have you been playing with your second uncle too much?"

Fang Nanzhi: ...

Fang Yin pouted: "Brother, you said I was stupid!"

Fang Tong argued: "I didn't!"

He didn't say it out loud, but his brother had really grown up and could understand even the roundabout words.

Qian Fengping also clapped Xia Tong's hand and scolded him: "Don't talk about your daughter and second brother like that!"

Fang Tong was unwilling to accept this: "Now that the seeds have been sown, why should we plow the fields? This kid is absolutely stupid and talking nonsense."

If you don't plow the land, why buy plowing tools? Isn't that a waste of money?

"Dad, it's okay. The plow can be used next year, or even for planting winter wheat." Qin Yan tried to smooth things over: "But, Zhizhi, if you want a plow, you'd better go back to the county town to buy it. It's too heavy for us to carry back."

Fang Nanzhi just thought of this, she nodded, and felt that her brother spoke better than her father!

She will ignore her father for a quarter of an hour!

"But what is the new plow you are talking about?" Qin Yan was even more curious about this.

Fang Nanzhi immediately winked at him: "Brother, I'm here, ahem! Ten books were picked out there, including one about farm tools."

Qin Yan became interested and knew what coughing meant.

He looked at the people in the lobby and smiled: "Come on, let's go upstairs and talk."

Fang Tong scratched his head and followed suit.

After the family entered the house, they closed the door and asked Fang Yin to sit at the door with a handful of melon seeds in his pocket to guard it.

Doing this is not a form of discrimination, the main thing is that Fang Yin won't understand, it's better to eat melon seeds.

Fang Nanzhi took out all ten books from the space.

Things produced by the system can be directly put into the space without being included by Qin Yan.

Just reading the "Five Thousand Years of Agricultural Tools Development History" made Qin Yan's heart beat wildly after flipping through a few pages!

Let’s take a look at the book “How Iron Was Tempered into Steel”. Just read the very beginning, which briefly explains what steel is and its many advantages over iron.

Qin Yan felt a little cold sweat all over his body!

Their court didn't have much iron ore, so some of the iron they refined was used to make farm tools, but more was used in weapons! It was used by the army!

Iron has always been controlled by the imperial court.

If steel could really appear, then...

I can’t imagine how much trouble this book would cause if it got out.

He did not doubt the authenticity of the book. After all, the system was so magical that it could make his legs stand up and have portable space. It was not difficult for the system to have steel.

Qin Yan forced himself to calm down.

"Zhizhi, other books are fine, but you must never take this book out, and you must not read it in front of others!"

He pointed to "How Iron Was Tempered into Steel" and said.

Fang Nanzhi nodded, not quite understanding.

Qin Yan emphasized: "If this book is taken out now and someone finds it, it will bring disaster to the whole family!"

The family is still too weak and cannot withstand the storm.

After hearing this, Fang Nanzhi became much more cautious and responded seriously: "I will listen to my brother!"

Qin Yan immediately put the book into his space.

Fang Tong was completely confused, but he didn't ask what the book was.

Children read a lot and know a lot. If he doesn't understand, he just listens to them.

"Zhizhi, what does the new plow you mentioned look like?" Fang Tong asked curiously.

Fang Nanzhi raised her eyebrows proudly and crossed her arms: "Dad, don't you want it?"

Fang Tong saw that his daughter was holding a grudge.

He chuckled: "Dad was wrong. My daughter is very smart. Dad will compensate you with a string of candied haws tomorrow!"

There were two "bang bang" sounds outside the door!

Fang Tong understood immediately: "Two skewers, one for each of my second brother and Zhizhi!"

It became quiet outside the door again.

Qian Fengping found it funny.

Fang Nanzhi still generously forgave her father. She turned the page to the plow and introduced the benefits of this thing to them.

Fang Tong's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Let's make one! Let's try making one!"

"I see there are quite a few farm tools in this book. Zhizhi, you should read it carefully and learn more."

Fang Nanzhi scratched his head: "My brother and I will watch it together."

What she was thinking was that her brother was a fast reader, so if he read more, she would have to read less.

Qin Yan had no objection.

Since he chose the path of imperial examination as his official career, it would be helpful for him to know more about farming.

Even regarding the plow, Qin Yan had thought about the future path.

"Okay, with so many books, you two brothers and sisters shouldn't go out to play for the next few days. Instead, read more."

Qian Fengping also spoke, mainly because after listening to those people talking tonight, she felt that the capital city was very chaotic.

It’s better to just wait patiently for the results to be announced.

Both brother and sister agreed.

The next day, I stayed in the inn and read books honestly. When I felt tired, I sat in the lobby and listened to music!

That’s right, a grandfather and grandson who were playing music and singing passed by the inn and were invited in by the guests.

They can take advantage of it.

Fang Nanzhi took a bite of the candied haws and said vaguely: "Brother, is that Pipa that the sister is holding?"

Qin Yan nodded without saying anything. He also held up a candied haws.

Fang Yin paid for this string of his! It was agreed upon before the exam. Although the results have not been announced yet, everyone in the family thinks Qin Yan will pass, it's just a matter of ranking.

Fang Yin wolfed down his own skewer and now stared at his niece eagerly: "Do you like it, Zhizhi?"

Fang Nanzhi still softened her heart and gave one to her second uncle.

Then he nodded, then shook his head: "I don't know if I like it or not, but that sister is amazing and sings very well."

Qin Yan seemed to be thinking about something. Since his sister was a girl, she should learn some music.

In fact, he is also, among the literati, the exchanges are playing chess, poetry, ritual music. Music is one of the six arts of a gentleman.

I can arrange it after I get back.

However, Qin Yan stared at the girl playing the pipa and felt that the pipa was a bit heavy. It would be tiring for his sister, who had such a small body, to hold it like that.

You can consider arranging a guqin.

When the time comes, they will all ask Mr. Zheng for advice.

"Mr. Qin, do you like this girl?" Suddenly, a loud voice sounded, and many people looked over.

A thin but elegantly dressed young man walked towards their table!

He Fugui was born into a family of merchants. The He family business was well-known in the city.

Although this dynasty does not prohibit the sons of merchants from taking the imperial examinations, once they really enter officialdom, their merchant identities will still lead to discrimination.
