Chapter 77 Metrics

Qin Feng looked at the human race who was on the right track, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

As the human race becomes more and more prosperous, every household has enough food and clothing, and no longer has to worry about food.

Although the human race is getting better and better, there is still one difficult matter that has not been resolved.

It turns out that since Shen Nong brought back grains and promoted the method of growing grains to the entire human race, the entire human race began to grow grains.

The prehistoric land is vast and boundless, but although the human race has slowly become prosperous, it is still very weak to all the creatures in the prehistoric land, so the land owned by the human race is very limited.

However, the human race has a huge population. After planting grains, the only land is simply not enough to distribute. The more land there is, the more grains can be planted, and more livestock can be fed.

Everyone wants to get more land, and there have been a lot of disputes and conflicts over land. The most fundamental reason for these conflicts is that there is no measurement standard.

Without measurement standards, there is no fairness. Thinking of these Shennong gives me a splitting headache.

"Deputy Master Qin, how can we measure land and value and achieve fairness and justice?"

Shennong asked melancholy.

Hearing Shennong's words, Guangchengzi also felt very helpless. Measuring land and value is not easy. Although the human race has begun to trade with copper coins, and Shennong and Guangchengzi have also formulated a trading system, the standard for measuring value has never been resolved.

Guangchengzi was the head of the twelve golden immortals of the Tang Dynasty, but he had no choice. When he thought that he could not help as a master, Guangchengzi felt a little ashamed.

Just when they were helpless, Guang Chengzi and Shennong immediately turned their attention to Qin Feng, their eyes full of hope.

"I do have a solution here!"

Qin Feng saw the two people's gazes, and responded with a meaningful arc at the corner of his mouth.

Hearing this, Guangchengzi and Shennong were shocked, and their hearts were filled with shock!

"Please give me some advice, fellow Taoist!"

Guangchengzi bowed respectfully to Qin Feng.

"Please ask Deputy Cult Leader Qin to clarify your doubts!"

Shennong also bowed and said respectfully.

Qin Feng saw the respectful look of the two people and couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction, and then the measuring ruler appeared in Qin Feng's hand.

"The doubts you two have are just trivial matters. This thing is called the Measurement Ruler. It is a treasure of acquired merit. It can solve your confusions for you."

Qin Feng said.

Hearing Qin Feng's words, Guangchengzi and Shennong were filled with disbelief. Their master and apprentice had nothing to do about this matter, but to Qin Feng, it was just a trivial matter.

From this point alone, Guangchengzi felt ashamed, and Shennong was even more shocked and respectful!

Shen Nong took the ruler from Qin Feng's hand and looked at it carefully. He found that the ruler was less than the length of his arm. It looked very simple and there was nothing outstanding about it.

However, since Qin Feng handed over the measuring ruler to himself, there must be a reason for it.

Shen Nong calmed down, and after a while, he discovered that there were small grids carved on the edge of the ruler. These small grids were the same size and looked very strange.

Qin Feng smiled slightly when he saw Shen Nong discovering the grid on the ruler.

After a long time, two rays of light burst out from Shen Nong's eyes. He discovered that the distances between the small grids were the same length. There would naturally be no errors in measuring the land with a ruler.

Thinking of this, Shen Nong looked happy, but the measuring ruler was only as long as an arm, so it was too difficult to measure the land.

Just when Shennong didn't know what to do, Qin Feng stretched out his finger and the measuring ruler instantly grew bigger.

Upon seeing this, Shen Nong suddenly showed a hint of joy, and quickly ran to a farmland where grains were planted, and used a measuring ruler to measure the length of the farmland.

Shennong was surprised to find that if you want to know the length of farmland, you only need to remember how many small grids the farmland occupies on the sky ruler. The small grids are all of normal size. One less grid or one more grid means that the land is not of normal size.

In this way, there was a measuring standard. Without saying anything, Shen Nong immediately summoned many tribesmen, used the measuring ruler as the measuring standard, measured and divided the land.

Soon, the land division was completed, and the divided land was basically equal, which also filled the entire Lieshan clan with shock and surprise.

No one thought that there would be such an exquisite thing. In the past, human hands and feet were used as the standard for dividing land. However, people's heights are different, and the lengths of their arms and legs are naturally different.

The land divided in this way cannot be uniform at all, which also makes it difficult to maintain fairness.

Looking at the measuring ruler in his hand, Shennong frowned again.

"Deputy Master Qin, this measuring ruler is really magical, but if there is no measuring ruler, how can I measure the land?"

Shennong expressed his doubts.

Hearing this, Qin Feng smiled slightly and locked his eyes on Shennong.

"Why can't you make some copies based on the ruler like before?"

Qin Feng said.

Hearing Qin Feng's words, Shen Nong's eyes lit up and he suddenly became enlightened. Shen Nong immediately summoned his tribe members to use trees to imitate the measuring ruler. Some were long and some were short, which was very convenient to use.

"Thank you, Deputy Cult Leader Qin. Shennong and the human race are grateful!"

At this moment, Shennong's respect for Qin Feng was beyond words, and he could only express his gratitude by bowing respectfully.

"no."

Qin Feng also responded very politely.

In order to facilitate unification, Shennong divided the rulers of different lengths into inches, feet, and feet. With the help of Qin Feng, Shennong also stipulated that ten inches equal one foot and ten feet equal one foot.

At the same time, in order to perfect the currency, Shennong invented the weighing units, namely dou and stone, and stipulated that ten dou were equal to one stone.

After Shen Nong's improvement, the measurement standard quickly spread among the human race. With the measurement unit, the human race's transactions became more and more fair.

"Vice-leader Qin's kindness will never be forgotten by Shennong!"

Shennong returned the measuring ruler to Qin Feng and bowed respectfully to Qin Feng.

"You're welcome, I just put in a little effort and it's not worth mentioning."

Qin Feng said very politely.

After hearing Qin Feng's words, Shennong was even more grateful and admired for Qin Feng. He knew very well that without Qin Feng's help, he would not have been able to create a trading system and measurement standards.

"Thank you for your hard work, fellow Taoist, you are indeed extraordinary!"

Seeing this, Guangchengzi also bowed respectfully to Qin Feng.

For him, extremely difficult things were easily solved with a single gesture in front of Qin Feng. This filled Guangchengzi's heart with shock!

Although he knew that Qin Feng was extraordinary, he only knew how powerful Qin Feng was when he saw it with his own eyes. Guangchengzi sincerely respected Qin Feng!

"Fellow Taoist, you don't have to be polite. You and I are from the same religion, and this is what we should do."

Qin Feng responded with a slight smile.

Hearing what Qin Feng said, Guangchengzi was even more grateful and admired Qin Feng in his heart.

"Now that the matter is settled, I will take the first step."

Qin Feng looked at Shennong and Guangchengzi, nodded slightly and said.

"Congratulations to my fellow Taoist, Deputy Hierarch Qin!"

After hearing this, Shennong and Guangchengzi bowed respectfully to Qin Feng.

In the respectful gazes of the two people, Qin Feng disappeared into the sky!
