Li Er's expression, Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and Duan Lun, saw it, and couldn't help but be stunned.

At this time, Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng also walked into the hall, their faces were red and excited.

The two of them were even more surprised.

What day is so happy today?

Then I heard Li Er say, "Do you know, I have a big thing to hand over to you!"

Duan Lun bowed his head when he heard this, "Your Majesty, I just need to give you an order!"

Duan Lun is actually not a member of the Tiance Mansion team, so he failed to become a big star in the history of legend.

And because this person has always been low-key and was a surrendered minister from the previous dynasty of the Sui Dynasty, historians did not mention it much.

But no one mentioned it, it doesn’t mean that Duan Lun is not good.

As a surrendered person, it is no joke that he can be appreciated by Li Er to be able to reach the position of the Six Ministers of the Secretariat.

Moreover, although Duan Lun was an old minister of the Sui Dynasty, he was not a treacherous minister. Just like Zu Shi, who heard the chicken dance during the Taikang period of the Western Jin Dynasty, Duan Lun did a lot of things about being a hero and a righteous man when he was young.

But after all, he was a surrendered minister, so he was naturally more low-key than ordinary people, so his reputation was not obvious.

However, Duan Lun undoubtedly supported Li Er's political line from the bottom of his heart, otherwise he would not have been gradually promoted to the position of Shangshu because of his ability to do things.

When Duan Lun heard Li Er's words, he looked confused.

On this evening, why did I specifically summon me as the Minister of Works?

I, a minister of the Ministry of Works, are errands clerks. What big things can I do? Besides, the recent grenade dan, divine arm bow, cast iron armor... These are all real big things.

What else can be bigger than this? It's impossible.

"Now I want you to build a batch of tools, which is very large, so you must be careful to handle it."

"Tools? Your Majesty, what tools..."

"That's this thing!"

As he said that, Li Er took out a piece of paper.

The curved plow is not like other things, and has no complicated structure.

Duan Lun understood as soon as he saw it.

I was also stunned.

This is not...

"Your Majesty, isn't this a rake used by farmers to cultivate land? The Ministry of Works has built this thing?"

Duan Lun found it incredible. It can be said that every household has such things. Why did Your Majesty ask the Ministry of Works to build them?

"Of course it was built by the Ministry of Works. Nowadays, wars are stopped in troubled times, and it is the time for the people to recuperate. If they were all allowed to make them by themselves, they would probably delay farming by accident - summer has begun, and every household is using plows and rakes, so they must not be able to make them by themselves at this time."

Duan Lun nodded, but felt even more puzzled.

What kind of confusing behavior is Your Majesty?

"But... Your Majesty, why do you want the people to make plows? Your Majesty also said that this is when the people use plows. Every household has this thing, why do you need to rebuild it for the people?"

"hey-hey……"

Li Er couldn't help but smile proudly.

Du Ruhui and Wei Zheng also looked at each other and smiled.

Only Duan Lun, Changsun Wuji, and Fang Xuanling were confused.

"Your Majesty, this... this rake is not complicated. It does not cost much silver and grain to manufacture, but it requires a lot of manpower... Why do you need to do this?"

After all, Fang Xuanling is a core member of the Tiance Mansion. Of course, he must also ask everything clearly, otherwise he will always feel uneasy.

Du Ruhui patted Fang Xuanling on the shoulder,

"Lao Fang, you've been busy these days. I've been to the outside of Youzhou City today... Do you understand what I mean?"

"Outside Youzhou City? You...you!"

Fang Xuanling suddenly reacted and had a strong premonition in his mind.

"Are you going to meet the palace... to meet the young master?"

"Hahahahahahaha!"

Li Er laughed and directly covered Fang Xuanling's topic, and then patted Duan Lun on the shoulder.

"Zi Ming, you are the Minister of Works. What is the mystery of this plow? Why not take a look at it yourself?"

Duan Lun was stunned and picked up the piece of paper again.

This time, he found that the paper was the new paper sold in Zichengzhai, Chengxi a few days ago. Its texture was white and as strong as a blade.

However, this one has a little wrinkled and looks like sweat.

Let’s take a look at the above content.

Look at it...

After watching for a long time, Duan Lun didn't notice anything special... Could this be some new powerful bow and arrow?

etc.

Why do I think this plow is like a bow and arrow?

"this……"

Duan Lun suddenly opened his eyes wide and he discovered it.

This plow is different from that used by ordinary people. The general people use straight plow, but this is a curved plow!

"Your Majesty, is this a mistake... Why is the plow above a curved plow?"

"Hehe, you don't understand this. This curved plow is more labor-saving than a straight plow!"

"Save effort than straight plows?!"

Duan Lun never expected that the plow rake could save effort!

No matter how you look at it, except for the plough shaft, the other parts of this plow are just ordinary plows.

It's simply incredible.

If it is true, it will allow the people to have some strength left when farming... Duan Lun thinks this is really good.

Whether it is to let the precious ox rest after ploughing, or to save energy and reclaim more parts of the land after ploughing one acre, it can be considered a great merit.

But at this time, Changsun Wuji frowned.

He bowed his hand and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, this matter must not be done!"

"No?"

Li Er was stunned. I'll go, what's the point?

"Auxiliary machine, isn't this a good thing?"

"Your Majesty, this matter is indeed a good thing. But now the treasury has used too much money and grain, and there is only a lot of silver left in the treasury of more than 100,000 yuan."

"We will have to use troops in a while, and there are still many things to spend. Your Majesty, don't ruin big things because of your temporary kindness!"

Changsun Wuji said earnestly.

To put it this way, it sounds a bit cold-blooded, but it is not unreasonable from a realistic perspective.

After Changsun Wuji finished speaking, he felt a little proud in his heart.

Li Er would definitely not be able to refuse this wave of advice, so it would be equivalent to increasing his voice in disguise and increasing his authority.

However, immediately afterwards, Li Er laughed.

"Auxiliary machine, you're right. But..."

"Do you know, how much effort can this thing save?"

Changsun Wuji was stunned, but he didn't expect Li Er to talk about this.

But I think it was nothing special, so I said, "Your Majesty, such strange and lewd things, you can only save one or two points..."

"No. With this curved plow, the plow that could only be used to plow oxen can be pulled by manpower!"

"In other words, it turns out that a commoner can only cultivate one acre of land with a ox. But with this curved plow, it can be directly turned into two acres!"

"Auxiliary machine, do you still remember how many wastelands in my Tang Dynasty have not been cultivated now?"

"The records of the Han Dynasty are over two points!"

"If all these wastelands are cultivated and the tax burden remains unchanged, how much will the annual income of the treasury... increase?"

Changsun Wuji was stunned.

The boss opened his mouth and poked his feet on the spot.

Too exaggerated!
Chapter completed!
