Chapter 690 Improved Spinning Wheel

After the matter was finalized, Wang Yangyu simply stopped delaying and went directly to the palace to see Emperor Qianxi again with the agreed results.

Emperor Qianxi did not refuse and directly asked him to enter the imperial study.

After all, the imperial study room was the same as before. Wang Yangyu took out the memorial and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, this is the result of a joint discussion between eight of us. Please take a look at it."

Emperor Qianxi glanced at him and said, "Send it over!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After hearing this, Xiao Lizi immediately walked down and took the memorial from Wang Yangyu's hand.

Emperor Qianxi did not put it down this time, but took it in his hand and opened it directly. His eyes fell on the memorial, and he looked at it again and again without saying a word. Wang Yangyu in the audience seemed calm, but in fact he was panicked. After all, this The reward is truly unsightly.

"Well, adding a military attache would be fine too!"

Emperor Qianxi spoke, but he was not angry. Wang Yangyu felt relieved instantly, and the Wuzhishan on his back disappeared.

"But..." Emperor Qianxi suddenly spoke, and Wang Yangyu was immediately shocked.

Emperor Qianxi said solemnly, "Fifth rank is not bad, so be it! Promote Ling Yun to the post of Nanyi magistrate, change the Xuanfu envoy to Pingnan general, lead 20,000 troops, and guard the Beicang River."

When Wang Yangyu heard this, he was shocked. Did this mean that Ling Yun would lead the army?

As a civil servant, Ling Yun actually has to guard the border. This is... really incredible.

The title of Xuanfu Envoy is just a false position, which is why He Yushan made such a decisive proposal just now.

But General Pingnan is different. He leads 20,000 troops. This is not a fifth-grade military attache. This directly makes him a fourth-grade general. He is not only a real official, but also a serious leader of troops to guard the border.

Wang Yangyu wanted to raise an objection, but when he saw Emperor Qianxi's indifferent gaze, he suddenly became mute. In the end, he could only accept the order and ran back.

When He Yushan learned the news, he walked around the room several times, bowed his head in silence, and finally left in a puff of his sleeves.

Gao Anxiang was unhappy, but he didn't dare to say anything, and finally followed in He Yushan's footsteps and left.

Nanyi Prefecture.

When the imperial messenger arrived in Nanyi Prefecture, twenty days had passed.

During this period, Ling Yun did another big thing.

Daqian's spinning cart is both ancient and laborious. It requires people to shake it hard, and it only has one spindle. This means that when weaving, one hand is needed to shake it and the other hand is used to defend the thread. The whole process is not timely at all.

One day, Zixuan brought back a textile cart, saying that it was used to make clothes, and it was done by hand. Only then did Ling Yun realize how backward Daqian's textile cart was.

One time, he saw Zixuan sweating profusely while spinning. Ling Yun saw this and felt heartbroken, but he couldn't persuade her not to do it.

Ever since, strange thoughts arose in my heart.

An idea struck and I dismantled the textile cart.

Zixuan looked at the textile cart she bought and it was torn apart by Ling Yun. She thought it was because he didn't want her to learn textiles, so she was depressed all morning.

Only half a day later, she suddenly turned from anger to joy.

Because Lingyun dismantled the textile cart, not to stop Zixuan from learning weaving, but to improve the textile cart. Because he didn't know the structure of the textile cart, he dismantled it.

Lingyun's improved textile cart was driven by pedals, that is, instead of hand cranking, it was pedaled. Such textile carts were common in later generations, so Ling Yun probably knew something about it.

He switched to pedal drive, and on a whim, he changed the number of spindles from one to four. This not only freed up his hands, but also increased the speed of spinning.

With the improved textile cart, the efficiency of one person's spinning is equivalent to the efficiency of four people before.

After the improvement, Ling Yun pulled Zixuan over, looked around cautiously, and whispered, "Zixuan, come with me quickly, I have prepared a surprise for you."

Zixuan threw his hand away. Apparently she was still sulking about the textile car and didn't want to talk to Ling Yun.

Ling Yun took a look and knew what she was angry about, so he said happily, "Zixuan, don't be angry yet, listen to me, I didn't dismantle your textile cart just now, but improved your textile cart."

Take a look, now the improved textile car is faster, if you don’t believe it, go and take a look!”

"real?"

Zixuan raised her head and looked at him in surprise.

Ling Yun stared at her clear and aggrieved eyes, feeling a little funny, and at the same time he felt happy in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't persuade her to throw away the textile cart before, otherwise, this little girl would definitely be angry with him.

"That's natural, don't you believe me?"

"Quick, quick...go and see..."
