In the crown prince's residence, Gongshu Yue was studying the roller block without eating or sleeping. She was completely immersed in the joy of her harvest.
With the help of the Crown Prince's Palace's craftsmen, in less than two days, after dozens of failures, Gongshu Yue was able to complete Great Qin's first moving wheel.
Then, he personally conducted the test.
He was surprised to find that Fu Su was right again.
Even though he could only save half of his strength and the distance needed was longer, it was already a huge improvement.
Gongshu Yue excitedly threw herself into the more complicated challenge of the roller block.
Then, he realized gloomily that although the principle had been verified, it was not complicated.
However, it was not easy to combine multiple moving and fixed sheaves to form a sheaves that could save energy and flexibly change the direction of the force.
In particular, to meet Fusu's requirements, it would require many tests to be able to easily lift coal weighing thousands of kilograms from the depths of the coal cave that was dozens of meters underground.
Every test was a new experience and comprehension for Gongshu Yue.
She was completely enjoying the process of being constantly broadened and improved.
Towards Fu Su, his initial curiosity and dissatisfaction had turned into true worship.
As the successor of Gongshu, Gongshu Yue knew very well that even if it was a simple solution, the first person to discover it was a genius.
For someone like Fu Su, who was clearly not a craftsman, to be able to make so many inventions based on craftsmen, and all of them were so exquisite and practical, he could only be a god descending to the mortal world.
Once he completely mastered the combination of the wheels and applied them on a large scale, it would definitely be a god-like existence.
This was especially true for all kinds of large-scale projects that involved the national economy and the people's livelihood, but were extremely difficult.
For example, roads, canals, and defensive structures like the Great Wall.
Before this, they could only carry the materials for large-scale construction projects to their destination.
Countless people were injured or even crushed to death by the heavy materials in the complicated terrain.
With the help of the pulleys, as long as the conditions were right, they could easily lift objects weighing thousands or even tens of thousands of kilograms from the ground to the mountainside.
If she succeeded, anyone who used the roller block would know of her ability.
The entire Gongshu family would also benefit and completely suppress their old enemy, the Mo family.
Fu Su was also very happy.
Through this period of experience, he was certain that Gongshu Yue was not only very good-looking, but she was also a skilled craftsman.
He had gained another capable assistant, so he could save a lot of time and energy.
Fu Su was very satisfied with Gongshu Yue.
After resting, Fu Su started to think about the problem he had with Ying Zheng when he visited the official academy.
With the large-scale promotion of commerce in Xianyang and Hanzhong Prefecture, the business tax had skyrocketed on a large scale. Ying Zheng and the courtiers had already seen the real benefits of the lack of money.
Even Li Si and the other Legalism disciples were flabbergasted, and their rebuttals were getting weaker and weaker.
Once the wineries and other industries were fully developed, the commercial taxes would completely suppress the agricultural taxes, and the new high-yield crops would be harvested, Great Qin would be able to say goodbye to Great Qin.
Fu Su was not in a hurry.
As the Crown Prince's Residence recruited more and more talents, the problem of the lack of teachers was solved to a certain extent.
The remaining problem was the lack of teaching materials.
According to Fu Su's opinion, the current official school should be called a primary school or an elementary school.
As the name suggested, it was to educate children who had just received education.
Although the Analects of Confucius and the other four books and five classics had basically taken shape except for the Book of Rites and were beginning to be used in the school, Fu Su was not satisfied with it.
Other than the limitations of the Four Books and Five Classics, many of the contents of these books were not something that students who had just come into contact with learning could digest.
He had to do the same as in the later generations and compile and publish some special teaching materials suitable for children.
Fu Su searched his mind and soon came up with an idea.
When it came to enlightenment, in the thousands of years of history, the most famous one was none other than that one.
Although many of them had yet to appear, they only needed to be replaced.
Moreover, he could also remove some of the areas that did not conform to Great Qin, making it more in line with his own intentions.
At this moment, a guard walked in.
"Your Highness, there's an old man outside the Crown Prince's Residence requesting an audience!”
"Who is it?"
Fu Su asked casually.
During this period of time, he had already interviewed thousands of people and was almost numb to it.
"The old man didn't say his name, but regardless of his attire, he looks like a Taoist priest.”
"Right, he said that he is very good at geomancy and divination, and he wants to discuss the Dao with Your Highness.”
The guard recalled.
"Qi Ren is also good at divination. Could it be him?”
A famous person's name suddenly appeared in Fu Su's mind. He immediately waved his hand and said,""Invite him in!"
Soon, an old man with white hair and beard, dressed in simple clothes, was brought in by the guards.
When he saw Fu Su, his face could not help but reveal a trace of surprise.
"Your Highness, do you know that there will be a calamity in the near future?”
After a long while, the old man nodded and smiled.
"Old mister, why don't you say that bengong's glabella is black and there will definitely be a bloody disaster?”
"You're spouting nonsense in bengong residence, aren't you afraid that bengong will take you down and punish you?”
Fu Su could not help but laugh.
Why did these Taoist priests like to play tricks these days?
Even that person was no exception.
"His Majesty might, but His Highness won't.”
"Oh, could it be that Old Mister has seen Imperial Father?”
Fu Su asked in surprise.
"When His Majesty was out on a tour, this old man once saw him from afar.”
"Although Your Majesty has great luck, being too tyrannical is not a long-term solution.”
"But now that Your Highness is here, there will be many more variables in this world. Interesting, interesting!”
The old man stroked his beard and laughed.
"May I know how I should address you, old sir?”
Fu Su was even more certain, but he still asked.
"I'm a country bumpkin, I don't have a name. If you want to address me, just call me Duke Huang Shi!”
It was indeed him!
