Soul swap tyrant always wants to have a baby
Chapter 102 Two Big Buddhas
Upon hearing this, Dajin immediately retracted his claws that were about to fall on the crops and sat there obediently waiting.
Seeing that the big brother he had just recognized did not catch up with him, Xiong Da sat obediently half a step behind his big brother.
Leng Qingyi used his lightness skills to walk to the discarded farm tools without stepping on any crops.
He bent down and squatted to study this unusual farm tool.
From the angular and burred wood and the relatively clean and bright blade, it can be judged that this is newly made.
A gleam of light flashed through Leng Qingyi's mind, and he looked up to check the surrounding environment.
This seems to be an imperial farm under Zhongli Yuan's command.
And it seemed that he had recently driven a man from the Ministry of Works who had provoked her to the imperial farm to do farm work.
As for whether it was what she thought, it would depend on the outcome brought about by Zhongli Yuan.
Sure enough, not long after, Zhongli Yuan and a young man in a coarse cloth shirt came running towards her in a hurry. Behind them was a group of farmers who were trembling with fear and holding various farm tools.
Seeing the emperor squatting next to the farm tools and the beast the farmers talked about sitting obediently by the official road, the people following Zhongli Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"I see you, Your Majesty."
Leng Qing looked up when she heard the voice and saw that it was indeed the Left Vice Minister of Works who had been driven by her to the imperial farm to do farm work.
At this time, he was wearing the coarse cloth shorts that ordinary people usually wore, and his arrogance had faded a lot.
"Get up, you made this?"
"Yes."
"Do you still think that farm tools are useless and not worth your research?"
Lin Yangye felt complicated when he recalled the more than one month he had spent in the imperial farm. At first, he was unwilling to accept the emperor's order and did not work with the farmers.
He was an official in the court and no one dared to say anything to him even if he lay down all day.
But lying down all the time was not a good thing after all. After three days, he could not lie down any more. When he went out for a walk, he saw farmers in their fifties and sixties who were bent over but still got up early to work in the fields.
For a young man like him who grew up in a honeypot, let alone doing farm work, he had never even washed his own clothes.
As if possessed, he followed the old man to the fields and watched them hoeing and weeding, devoutly tending to the crops.
After observing for a few days, I also saw the farm tools that farmers already had.
Although he had never done farm work, he was smart and knew what each farm tool was used for after just a few observations.
After watching for a few days, he felt that these farm tools were pretty good and much more convenient than using them with bare hands.
Gradually, he became familiar with the farmers and tried his hand at it.
Unlike what he had imagined, hoeing and cultivating the land was very strenuous work.
He is a young and strong man in his twenties, but his physical strength is not as good as that of an old man in his fifties or sixties.
After asking carefully, I learned that ordinary people have been dealing with fields and crops all their lives, and they have to work hard if they want their families to have enough to eat.
Over time, his strength naturally increased. Lin Yangye, who didn't believe in evil, followed the farmers in the imperial farm and did farm work for a few days.
Even though he was taken care of by the farmers and was doing the easiest work, he was still exhausted and his back ached after a few days.
Looking at the endless fields and the wasteland that needed to be reclaimed, he felt for the first time that the people's lives were difficult.
Elderly people in their fifties and sixties have to work in the fields, as do women who have just given birth. Even toddlers who are just learning to speak do what they can in the fields.
And they work so hard just to have enough food to eat next year.
When I look back at those farm tools now, countless plans for modifying them come to my mind.
So he stopped going to the fields to work with them and started studying the farm tools that farmers used on a daily basis.
From how big and heavy the hoe should be, and at what angle to save effort, to whether agricultural tools can be used instead of sowing several ridges at a time to save effort during sowing.
He studied all the farm tools and began to modify them one by one.
After the transformation, it was given to farmers for experimentation. At first, the farmers naturally did not dare to say anything bad.
Even if it was awkward and laborious to use, he wouldn't dare to say it for the sake of the senior official's face, but Lin Yangye would observe for himself and he could tell whether it saved effort or not.
Later, I could only try it out myself, and then give it to farmers after it was successful.
He hadn't noticed that he had been staying in the imperial farm for more than a month, and the emperor didn't send anyone to summon him back to the capital.
Today, the emperor happened to come here and he realized that he had been here for nearly two months. At the same time, he also understood the emperor's intention.
If agricultural tools were improved and made more efficient, people would be able to reclaim more wasteland and grow more food every year.
It can also save a lot of energy and time. Young and strong people can find a job in town or city to earn some money to supplement their family income.
In the long run, the people will be able to have enough food to eat.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Yangye bowed deeply to the emperor and said sincerely, "I am a foolish official. It is only now that I understand the emperor's intention."
"Now that you understand, go back to court tomorrow."
"Your Majesty, I want to stay here and continue researching farm tools. I still have a lot of work to do."
"I didn't ask you to go back, but I didn't stop you from researching. If you go back to the Ministry of Industry, you'll need more comprehensive tools. The Ministry of Industry has a lot of talented people, so you can discuss it together."
"We also have professional craftsmen, so it's more convenient for you to build anything you want."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yangye just wanted to punch himself. He had embarrassed himself in front of the emperor again today.
"The minister obeys the order."
"Is there any progress now?"
"We have created a few farm tools that are faster and less labor-intensive than before, but I feel this is far from enough."
The farmers following Lin Yangye kept their farm tools in hand and kept a vigilant eye on the two giant Buddha statues on the roadside.
Seeing that he was quiet and well-behaved and had no intention of hurting anyone, they felt relieved and naturally heard the conversation between the emperor and Lord Lin.
At this time, an elderly man stood up.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Your Majesty, Lord Lin has made us many better farm tools than before."
"Look at this hoe. It's much lighter than what we used before, but it doesn't make hoeing any harder and it saves a lot of effort."
"Your Majesty, there's this shovel. I don't know how Lord Lin came up with the idea of making it with a round head. It saves a lot of effort when digging the ground."
"Yes, Your Majesty, Lord Lin is amazing. He even made toys for us."
"Your Majesty, look, this is the toy that Lord Lin made for us. It's really fun."
Leng Qingyi looked at those simple faces with a sincere smile on his face, and when he looked at Lin Yangye, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes.
He is not an incurably arrogant person, and looking at the farmers' farm tools, one can tell that Lin Yangye has some skills.
"Yes, so many people praised you, obviously you did an excellent job. Tomorrow I will reward you in front of all the officials at court."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. This is just my job. In the past, I was narrow-minded and didn't understand Your Majesty's deeper meaning. I am honored that Your Majesty doesn't hold it against me."
"Okay, don't refuse. There's another talented person in your Ministry of Industry who is quite good."
