Chapter 642 Ugly is not ugly
"What Mr. Huang said is true, but Yueying is not suitable to be a giant of the Mohist family." Facing the two men, Yuan Shu didn't bother to hide it and said directly.
"I don't understand what your majesty said, but the inheritance of our Mohist family is too obscure and difficult to understand. I have only scratched the surface of it after studying it for decades. Without geniuses like Yueying, when would we be able to reproduce the Mohist legacy of the past?
What a glory!" Mo Shen sighed.
As a giant of the Mohist family, he did not have many apprentices, only six. These six people were quite skilled in their crafts and could work alone, but they were far behind him. How could they shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Mohist family today?
It should be noted that now is a critical time for the rise of hundreds of schools, and he is nearly fifty years old, and his energy and physical strength cannot keep up. He urgently needs a young hero who can take the lead to lead the rise of the Mohist family. It does not require skill, but he must
Only by gaining superb ability and controlling the craftsmen all over the world can the authority of Momen be established and the craftsmen united.
Yuan Shu did not care at all about this loose academic faction, because it did not pose any threat at all. It was good to unite together. Not only could they pool their wisdom and promote the development of technology, but they could also check and balance Confucianism to prevent one family from becoming dominant.
"Speaking of this prodigy, I do have a good candidate here." Yuan Shu suddenly said as if he remembered something.
"Please give me your Majesty's words!" Mo Shen heard the words and quickly bowed his hands respectfully and said solemnly.
Yuan Shu's vision is well-known in the world. The people who can be valued by him are all outstanding figures of the world, and the people who can be mentioned by him are definitely not easy people. Being evaluated by Yuan Shu as good shows the ability of this person. It is necessary to
You know, even he, a Mohist giant, is just okay in Yuan Shu's words. Of course, this is mainly because the gap between him and the Mohist giant Yuan Shu expected in his heart is too big.
"There was a son named Ma Jun in Fufeng, Liangzhou, with the courtesy name Deheng, who was a local county magistrate. However, he made many inventions in the past six months. He not only invented and improved the keel waterwheel, but also improved the loom and trebuchet.
, invented a wheel-type stone-shooting cart." Speaking of this, Yuan Shu himself couldn't help but sigh. This gap in talent is really disappointing.
Ma Jun was not a craftsman, and studying machinery was just his hobby. His family was poor and he stuttered, but he was smart and wanted to be an official. He only studied machinery when he had nothing to do, and he had no inheritance.
The result is that this wild guy, by relying on his talent in machinery, has abilities that are beyond the reach of 99% of the craftsmen in the world. Without even knowing it, he has become a man who can rank among the best in the world.
The top ten master craftsmen are just like catapults. They just heard about some of the situations in the battle between Yuan Shu and Cao Cao. Then they glanced at the catapult and immediately thought of ways to improve it.
The wheel-type stone-throwing cart he invented greatly improved the stone-throwing efficiency of the stone-throwing cart. It can continuously throw several boulders at the same time. The power is several times greater than that of ordinary stone-throwing carts. It can be called an attack weapon.
The city and the weapons used to defend it.
This kind of talent actually became a small county magistrate in Liangzhou, which made Yuan Shu speechless. There are so many talents buried in the world. Ma Jun in history just didn't meet a good opportunity and a good master, otherwise his achievements may not have been possible.
He can stand shoulder to shoulder with Gongshu Ban and Mo Zhai.
"Sometimes talent is really disappointing. The abilities that you have worked hard for half a life to possess, others can possess in just a few years through interest." Looking at Mo Shen's dull face, Yuan Shu sighed softly: "
This boy's talent should not be inferior to Yueying's, and he should be more than enough to be a giant of the Mohist family. He just stutters a little, so if you find two disciples who are good at communication to help him, there should be no problem."
"Your Majesty, I don't know when Deheng will arrive?" Mo Shen came back from the shock and the beautiful fantasy of the future, and said excitedly.
"It should be in the next few days. When the time comes, I will transfer him to you as your assistant. As for whether you can take him under your sect, it depends on you." Yuan Shu said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Mo Shen quickly bowed and expressed gratitude.
"Don't be too happy. I have requirements for bringing him here. Within half a year, the problem of hand crossbows must be solved. Otherwise, don't blame me for demoting you. I will provide you with manpower and supplies if you need them.
I can try my best to be satisfied with everything, and other research can also be slowed down. No matter what the process is, I only want the results, understand?" Yuan Shu then said.
"I will do my best and never fail His Majesty's trust." Although he was a little worried, Mo Shen gritted his teeth and said.
"Well, your Mohism is as important to me as Confucianism and Legalism. I am willing to support it, but you must also try your best. Now that you can't even reproduce all the skills inherited in the past, how can you talk about innovation? We always
We cannot continue to follow the old path of our ancestors, we must surpass our ancestors and innovate."
Huang Chengyan heard this, hesitated for a moment and then said in a deep voice: "Although Yueying, as a woman, cannot join the Mohist family, if you need help, I can help you. However, this has nothing to do with the Mohist family, and is purely for you as an elder.
Personal personal assistance.”
When Yuan Shu heard this, he smiled and said: "Huang Lao, what's the matter? The Mohist family is not a scourge, so why should we be so careful?"
"When a talented son-in-law with a bright future is presented to us, I have to be so cautious! I don't know how many pairs of eyes are looking at me and Yueying inside and outside. We can't cause trouble for this good son-in-law without help."
Huang Chengyan sighed.
"Kong Ming is so lucky to have a father-in-law like you and a wife like you." Yuan Shu said softly.
"Your Majesty, you are saying the opposite. Chengyan is lucky to have such an outstanding son-in-law as Kong Ming. I don't know how many heads of aristocratic families in Dachu have tried so hard to calculate but never had the chance!" Mo Shen said with a smile: "It's a pity that my family is a
Boy, otherwise it wouldn’t be bad to be Kong Ming’s concubine!”
"What a wonderful idea you have. My son-in-law can only have one of my daughters by his side in this life, and the others can't even be concubines." Upon hearing this, Huang Chengyan snorted coldly.
"By the way, Mr. Huang, is your daughter really not good-looking?" Yuan Shu asked curiously. It is said that because of the excellent genes of children from aristocratic families, even if they are not handsome, they should not be any worse. Is it possible?
A genetic mutation has occurred.
"Your Majesty, don't listen to old man Chengyan's nonsense. Not only is Yueying's appearance not ugly, but she can also be said to be a beautiful woman. The outside world is just spreading rumors." Mo Shen said.
"In that case, Mr. Huang, why don't you defend your daughter?" Yuan Shu asked in confusion.
"Beauty is a disaster, and good looks are not necessarily a good thing. Moreover, they are just rumors. They are insignificant. There is nothing to defend." Huang Chengyan sighed deeply, his eyes seemed to see through everything, and he obviously loved his daughter very much. (To be completed.)
