After entering Shanglin Garden, Liu Che first went to Mo Garden for inspection.∈↗
Nowadays, Liu Che entrusts the Mohists in Mo Yuan with three main requirements.
The first is the mass production and process improvement of soil fertilizers.
The second is the research and development of new plows and agricultural tools in cooperation with Shaofu agricultural officials.
The third is the hydraulic forging system.
The most important thing is the hydraulic forging system.
Therefore, as soon as Liu Che arrived at Moyuan, he asked Yang Yi to take him to inspect the development department of hydraulic forging technology and learn about the current progress.
Now, the technical reserves of hydraulic forging are basically complete.
After the invention of the wheel axle, the difficulty of hydraulic forging technology has actually become how to maximize its power.
Liu Che was very satisfied after seeing the latest hydraulic forging press manufactured by the Mohists.
This water conservancy forging press is probably similar to the water forge of later generations.
Different from the waterwheel, it changes the horizontal type of the waterwheel into a vertical row of wheels. A large waterwheel drives several other small waterwheels, supplemented by a certain amount of human power pedals, and uses the rotational motion to drive the up and down swing output power.
.
Now this primitive hydraulic forging press can already perform simple tasks such as pounding rice.
But there is still a long way to go before forging heavy armor.
However, Liu Che knew that this was a huge improvement.
This means that the hydraulic forging system of the Han Dynasty suddenly reached the level of the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
If we continue to develop continuously, within two or three years, we will be able to realize the idea of using water conservancy to forge plate armor and weapons.
Even today's primitive water mill machine has broad application prospects in people's livelihood. The function of pounding rice alone can make people flock to it.
Slightly improved, it can grind flour and rice better.
This is a great blessing to my big foodie empire!
"What is the cost of this thing now?" Liu Che asked.
"Reporting to Your Majesty..." Yang Yi next to him reported with some pain: "Just to make this thing, I have been groping for several months and spending more than 100,000 yuan in materials..."
After speaking, Yang Yi pointed to the countless discarded wood and parts piled in an open space in Moyuan.
Liu Che looked at it and was shocked by the technical houses of the Mo family - it was a site as big as a football field, but now it was filled with countless discarded wood, parts and debris.
It is conceivable that the writers must be working day and night on the research and development of their favorite technology.
Looking at the waste materials, Liu Che told Wang Dao: "Tell the young master to increase the dietary support for Mo Yuan and ensure that all Mo Yuan's Mo practitioners can drink chicken soup, eat beef and vegetables every day.
Don’t cut off seasonal fruits, and in winter, send more hot soup and minced meat to Mo Yuan!”
Liu Che has always cared about and paid great attention to the nutrition of the Mohists. As of today, Liu Che has ordered for the seventh time to increase the level of food supply to the Mohists.
Of course, Liu Che also intended to do this, gradually increasing the level of food supply to the Mohists.
Only in this way can the Mohists in Moyuan know that the emperor cares about and values them very much.
Although various schools of thought have different positions and political views, they all share the sentiment that a scholar will die for his bosom friend.
Liu Che is playing this way now, although he has lost some moral integrity, but the effect is outstanding!
Hearing this, both Yang Yi and other Mohists at work bowed their heads and said: "Your Majesty has treated you so kindly. I am so grateful that I will die in repayment!"
For a Mohist who values his promises more than his life, such an oath will almost certainly be carried out.
Among hundreds of scholars, there is no school that pays more attention to credibility and keeping promises than the Mohist school.
This is true even for the rangers and farmers who separated from the Mo family.
However, Liu Che quickly helped everyone up and said: "You are all my countrymen, you can't do this. What you have done today will be of great benefit to the present day and will benefit the future. When this hydraulic forging press is completed, I will set up ink in Shanglin Garden."
The statue of the sage Zhai is used to hinder the achievements of ministers and others, and to rectify the name of the Mohist family!"
As soon as these words came out, all the Mohists were excited and shouted long live.
For Mohists, is there anything more worthy of striving for than to rectify what they have learned and return Mohism to its prominent scholarly status during the Warring States Period?
No!
But they would never know that Liu Che not only wanted to erect a statue for Mo Zhai, but also for Zhou Gong, Confucius, Guan Zhong, Han Feizi, and Shang Yang!
Finally, Liu Che wants to build a statue for himself!
Is there anything that can stabilize a rule more than cultivating oneself and deifying oneself?
By erecting statues for the sages and himself, Liu Che not only placed himself in a position equal to or even higher than the sages, but also strengthened the resistance of the Han nation and culture to foreign religions, especially Buddhism.
The three major religions of the future.
In the Buddhist dynasty, tigers without teeth were naturally domesticated into pets and mascots.
Even the reincarnation of a living Buddha requires approval from the people's government.
But in its long history in China, Buddhism was not about good men and women, let alone a compassionate Bodhisattva.
Otherwise, there would not be activities to exterminate Buddha again and again.
As for the Quaker Cult and other Green Cults, although they have not yet been born.
However, as a time traveler, Liu Che is well aware of their power and poisonous nature.
In order to prevent it before it happens, we still need to cut off all the ways and channels that may be penetrated by them as soon as possible to eliminate their poison to future generations!
If Liu Che could hold his nose and approve of Buddhism, but the other two...
"All monotheistic religions are cults!" This is Liu Che's attitude, which is even more radical. In Liu Che's eyes, all religions are cults!
It’s just that people cannot live without the spiritual comfort of religion.
Therefore, Liu Che is now beginning to establish Chinese religion on the basis of ancient myths and legends.
Of course, Liu Che only planned to give this local religion a little support and then let it fend for itself.
China has already separated politics and religion since Emperor Shun established the link between heaven and earth.
After the Yin and Shang Dynasties, the importance of gods and heaven and earth gave way to ancestral temples and ancestors.
Liu Che would not be so foolish as to reverse the course of history.
After inspecting Moyuan, Liu Che drove to various farms in Shanglinyuan to inspect the installation and promotion of waterwheels and the trial planting of winter wheat.
Naturally, waterwheels were first installed in estates belonging to the royal family.
Liu Che looked around and saw that waterwheels were being installed in more than a dozen imperial villages in the Shanglinyuan area near Chang'an.
The agricultural officials of the Shaofu drove and guided the prisoners to sow winter wheat on the vast land.
This is also the greatest effort Liu Che can make to promote winter wheat so far!
The public is currently opposed to this type of wheat.
There are only estates belonging to the royal family, because there is no need to worry about harvests and feeding the family. As long as Liu Che gives an order, not to mention winter wheat, even rice can be replanted for you!
Because there were prisoners, Liu Che did not get out of the car, but asked Wang Dao to go over and ask.
Generally speaking, the situation is pretty good, and winter wheat is being sown steadily as planned.
However, Liu Che believes that this situation will change soon!
Because the first batch of water-milled flour and the steamed buns, dumplings and other products derived from it will soon be launched on the market.
Liu Che believes that my big foodie empire will definitely fall in love with those delicacies.
Therefore, winter wheat will definitely become a staple food on par with corn in the future.
As for replacing corn?
Liu Che never thought about this matter.
The history of corn as a staple food lasted until the Sui and Tang Dynasties.
Habits and traditions are not easy to change! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
ps: Note: In the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty, the most primitive water hammer that used hydraulic forging technology and the lever principle to pound rice had already appeared in China.
