Chapter 515 Husband, don't you want to lie to my concubine
On the agricultural development of the Wei Dynasty.
Qin Yu still made quite a lot of achievements. The discovery of the curved shaft plow, the greenhouse, the sweet potato, and the implementation of "Dividing small crops into acres" are all very good examples.
Now this trolley has made Qin Yu famous in the field of agricultural irrigation.
"This...is this the end? With this waterwheel, I don't know how much manpower and material resources will be saved in agricultural irrigation in the Wei Dynasty."
"He is truly worthy of being a prince-consort. You can tell whether he is there or not as soon as you make a move. He is truly unparalleled in the world!"
"The key is that this waterwheel does not use human or animal power at all, it can move by itself!?"
.......
All the humerus looked at the barrel cart, their eyes widened in disbelief.
There is actually a waterwheel in Dawei, but it requires a lot of manpower and animal power.
As for agricultural irrigation, it is definitely better to dig irrigation canals and let the water flow in naturally, which saves effort and can be done once and for all.
But the waterwheel developed by Qin Yu that did not require human or animal power really shocked everyone.
Emperor Wei looked at Qin Yu, his eyes bright, "Good son-in-law, you... what is going on with you? The waterwheel started spinning on its own?"
Qin Yu explained: "This waterwheel is called a barrel wheel. Compared with previous waterwheels, it has two characteristics. One is that the wheel axle has been greatly improved, and the other is that it can use water power as power.
, pick up water by yourself.”
"In fact, it is not only about introducing river water into irrigation canals, but also about introducing water in irrigation canals into fields. You can also build small trolleys. After all, the water in irrigation canals also flows downhill into the fields."
Hear this.
The villagers in Zhaojia Village were stunned for a moment, and then were shocked.
If this is the case, then agricultural irrigation will really not be too convenient in the future.
All of them looked at Qin Yu with even more respect, the plow, the cart...
The prince-in-law's contribution to agriculture saved them a lot of trouble.
Emperor Wei looked at Qin Yu and couldn't help but extend his thumb, "Okay! Damn that's great! The fact that you can improve the waterwheel to this extent is enough to prove your intelligence!"
As he said that, he looked at Lu Liangping and said, "Liangping! It's up to you to handle this matter. Push the barrel cart as soon as possible without delay. This is the key to the rise of agriculture in the Wei Dynasty!"
Lu Liangping hurriedly bowed and said, "I humbly accept my order."
Qin Wenyao looked at Qin Yu, his eyes filled with relief.
This good son really makes him look good. He is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he is proficient in military, government, agriculture and commerce. It’s like smoke is rising from his ancestral graves.
Everyone rushed back to Jinling City happily. Emperor Wei felt that he could gain a lot of reputation this time.
...
At night, the bright moon is in the sky.
Prince Qin's Mansion.
backyard.
Qin Yu, Xiao Rou, Xiao Yuner and Di Qingqing were sitting in the courtyard.
Xiao Rou and Xiao Yun'er now have less time to go to the court because they are pregnant.
The two of them are pregnant, and Duo Jinniang is naturally the happiest.
Duo Jinniang visits her daughters-in-law in person every day.
The weather will be fine tonight.
Qin Yu accompanied the three ladies, admiring the moon and drinking tea.
Xiao Rou looked at Qin Yu and said softly: "Husband, I heard that you made another meritorious service today?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yun'er and Di Qingqing also looked at Qin Yu.
In fact, they were all very numb to the matter of Qin Yu's meritorious service, because Qin Yu had no idea how many great contributions he made that would go down in history.
Qin Yu drank tea and said calmly: "Hey, I just need to raise my hand to help you."
Xiao Yun'er smiled and said: "My husband is still so humble. That is a breakthrough in agricultural irrigation technology, but my husband said it so lightly."
Di Qingqing echoed: "My husband is unparalleled in the world. He is truly an all-round talent."
Qin Yu and Xiao Rou admire each other very much, and they are lucky to be able to marry Qin Yu.
Apart from being unparalleled in the world, they really didn't know how to describe Qin Yu.
Qin Yu picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth, then looked up at the bright starry sky. The most beautiful and colorful thing in the world is the bright starry sky in the sky.
Qin Yu was seen looking at the sky.
Xiao Rou, Xiao Yun'er and Di Qingqing also raised their heads and looked at the night sky.
Di Qingqing looked at the bright moon in the sky and asked: "Husband, do you think there are gods living on the moon?"
Xiao Rou and Xiao Yuner are also very curious about this matter.
Qin Yu said lightly: "Where did the gods come from? The moon is just bumpy ground and a pile of broken stones. It's all dust and it's extremely desolate."
Listen to Qin Yu's words.
Xiao Rou, Xiao Yuner and Di Qingqing were all stunned.
Although Qin Yu's tone was not high, he spoke very firmly, as if Qin Yu had been to the moon.
"You...why are you looking at me like that?"
Qin Yu was stunned when he looked at the three ladies who were staring straight at him.
Xiao Yun'er stared at her big eyes and asked: "Husband, have you been to the moon~"
Qin Yu shook his head, "That's not true."
Xiao Yun'er asked again, "Since you have never been there, how do you know that there is only a desolate patch of land on the moon?"
Qin Yu muttered: "Of course I have seen it with my own eyes."
The words fell into place.
Xiao Yun'er and the other three looked at Qin Yu with suspicious expressions.
Qin Yu continued to explain: "I saw it while standing on the ground."
Xiao Yun'er and the other two listened and looked up again at the bright moon in the sky.
Nothing can be seen except light.
"Husband, please don't lie to me~"
Di Qingqing looked at Qin Yu, her eyebrows furrowed, obviously doubting Qin Yu's words.
But we can't blame them. After all, it's very difficult to see clearly what's on the moon from the ground.
It cannot be said that it is difficult, it is just a fantasy.
Qin Yu thought for a while and said: "Of course you can't see it with your naked eyes, but you need to use tools."
Di Qingqing asked: "What tool?"
Qin Yu responded: "Telescope."
Xiao Rou: "???"
Xiao Yun'er: "???"
Di Qingqing: "???"
telescope?
Apparently this is a word they have never heard of before.
Di Qingqing smiled and said, "Husband, take it out and show it to me. We also want to see what the moon looks like."
For people of this era.
The things in the sky, whether it is the sun, moon, or stars, are all fascinating and elusive.
If you can see the true face of the moon, who wouldn't want to see it with your own eyes?
Qin Yu thought for a while and said: "I don't have it on hand, but I can make one. You wait for me for two days, and then I will make a telescope for you to enjoy the moon."
Now that there is glass, Qin Yu can still make a larger telescope without any problem.
Listen to him.
The three girls were overjoyed and very excited about looking at the moon.
