Great Qin was not an Iron Nation, but a Bronze Nation.
The bronze craftsmanship of the Great Qin Empire could be said to be at the peak of perfection. Even in the 21st century, it was impossible to imitate it.
There were even records of some extremely high-tech bronze weapons that could cut through hair and iron like mud.
However, Song Yuan had been in Great Qin for five years, and the first time he met his father-in-law, he had seen a bronze sword on Housekeeper Ji.
Although its power wasn't as ridiculous as cutting hair, it was still very sharp, much stronger than the common modern controlled knives.
Steward Ji was just a steward of his father-in-law's family. At most, he was a retired veteran of the Meng Army.
His Bronze equipment was already so powerful; one could imagine how powerful Great Qin's soldiers 'Bronze equipment was.
It was definitely much stronger!
The weapons were sharp and the armor was as solid as a rock. With such a configuration, the Song Army had no chance of winning.
This was the difference in equipment.
He had to upgrade the equipment of the Song Army!
Song Yuan made a decision in his heart. He was going to build the steel factory in the next two days. The ironware of the Qin Dynasty could not beat the bronze, but it did not mean that the modern steel alloy could not beat the bronze.
Thinking about the showdown between modern technology and Great Qin's technology, Song Yuan was filled with anticipation.
"Husband? I'm talking to you. Why are you ignoring me?”Ying Shiman said unhappily.
Feeling the little hand twisting around his waist, Song Yuan's hair stood on end. He immediately came back to his senses and said with a smile,"I'm thinking about giving you an empress.”
A smile appeared on Ying Shiman's face again. She said loudly,"I don't want to be the Empress, I want to be the Princess!”
Song Yuan raised his eyebrows. Why were women in ancient times the same as women in modern times? Why did they have to be a little princess every day?
He could only smile and say,"Alright, alright, you're my Princess Manman!"”
She was Princess Shiman!
Ying Shiman thought to herself, but she still smiled and hugged Song Yuan's waist.
Song Yuan no longer thought about the steel factory. After a busy week, he decided to spend the day with his wife.
...
The next morning.
Brother Zheng brought Meng Tian and a few craftsmen to the Song Manor early in the morning.
But this time, Brother Zheng didn't look for Song Yuan. Instead, he went straight to the river not far from the village and said to the craftsmen,""You guys start researching this waterwheel now, the faster the better!”
"Yes. Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Y-Old Master!"
The few craftsmen had already been greeted. They called out to their master in fear and immediately began to study the waterwheel.
The surrounding villagers saw this and ignored him. They all knew that the fatty in front of them was the father-in-law of the young master, so they did not stop him.
After a while, the craftsmen had seen through most of the principles and techniques of the waterwheel, and they began to marvel at it.
"I really didn't expect that I could actually use the river's own power to move the waterwheel?”
"The person who invented this is really Lu Ban!”
"With this thing, the farmers will be much more relaxed!”
Brother Zheng looked at the intense discussion between the three of them and felt a little proud. His son-in-law was still very powerful.
However, he still urged,"If you understand, go back and invent. Don't stay here!"”
Brother Zheng didn't want Song Yuan to find out that he was here to steal his master. If he was caught later, wouldn't it be very awkward?
The moment the craftsmen were reprimanded, they were all silent out of fear that the Ancestral Dragon would be angry. They hurriedly took a few glances and noted down the main points before leaving.
At this moment, Brother Zheng looked at Meng Tian and said,"Go and take a look at the sweet potatoes and potatoes."”
The two of them followed suit and arrived at the field.
Brother Zheng looked around. Just as Meng Tian had said, he could already see the green in the field.
Brother Zheng was looking forward to seeing how the potatoes and sweet potatoes would mature in a month and a half.
Could it be that there were round potatoes and sweet potatoes growing on the tall poles like rice?
"Father-in-law? Why are you here?"
At this moment, a familiar voice came from afar.
Brother Zheng and Meng Tian were both quick-witted. They looked at Song Yuan who was walking over from afar and were at a loss.
Could he tell Song Yuan that they were here to steal the waterwheel or to observe the potatoes and sweet potatoes?
Before the two of them could speak.
"How is it?" Song Yuan asked with a smile. The sweet potatoes and potatoes had already sprouted. They should have grown a lot in the ground. They could be harvested in a month and a half!”
The potatoes and sweet potatoes here were all super seedlings rewarded by the system. They could ignore time and weather and be cooked in two months.
This was also the reason why Song Yuan didn't do much preparation and planted it directly.
"Is it really as productive as you said?" Brother Zheng nodded. 2000 catties per mu and 6000 catties per mu?”
"As you wish, you will see what a great harvest is in a month and a half!”
Song Yuan said confidently.
Brother Zheng raised his eyebrows and could not help but look forward to it.
This was true; this was Great Qin's treasure!
At the same time, he looked forward to Song Yuan's continued development and the invention that would benefit the country and the people.
Hence, Brother Zheng asked," If this sweet potato is successful, you will have food, money, and soldiers. What are your follow-up plans?"”
