The next day, at four in the morning.
The sun was already high up in the sky, and many farmers had already started to pack up and prepare to go home to prepare lunch.
At this moment, a large group of carriages slowly arrived outside the Song Manor.
It was Li Si and the others.
Li Si lifted the curtain and looked at the smoky manor in front of him. He muttered,""It's been half a year since I last came!”
Meng Yi, who was standing at the side, peeked his head out to take a look. When he realized that there was no change, he said,"The last time I was here was a year ago. There hasn't been much change!”
"If you can see that there's a huge change from this look, wouldn't it be great?”
Wang Jian ridiculed.
"That's true. After all, it's only been 20 days." Meng Yi nodded.”
Li Si continued," Alright, stop looking. It's not too late to go in and observe later. Remember our alias. Don't expose yourself!"”
The Wang Jian duo nodded.
As they spoke, the convoy had already arrived at the entrance of the village.
At the entrance of the village stood three people. They were Song Yuan, Brother Zheng, and Meng Tian.
They had been waiting for a long time.
When he saw Li Si and the other two come down, Brother Zheng said,""Song Yuan, do you still remember these three? They are all my good friends and will live here in the future.”
Song Yuan narrowed his eyes as he looked at Li Si and the other two. Memories of them gradually appeared in his mind.
The leader of the group was a tough old man named Wang. He was called Elder Wang.
Song Yuan had only met him once, four years ago when he came to pick up his father-in-law after his treatment.
The muscular young man beside him was Butler Ji's younger brother, Ji Qing.
Ji Qing's martial arts were strong, and he seemed to be a guard of his father-in-law's family.
The last one was a middle-aged man with a serious expression. His name was Li Qi.
In the past five years, Song Yuan and Li Qi had met the most, especially when his father-in-law was being treated. They often came to the Song Manor to discuss matters with his father-in-law. They should be strategists.
Among the three, other than Elder Wang, one was skilled in martial arts, and the other was resourceful. If they joined his rebellion team, they would also be very good helpers.
Since Elder Wang could become the leader of the three, he must not be simple.
"Of course I remember. The three of them should be father-in-law's retainers, right?" Song Yuan put away his memories and said.”
Ever since he confirmed that his father-in-law was a noble of the State of Zhao, Song Yuan's words had become bolder.
Brother Zheng raised his eyebrows.”
At that moment, Li Si and the other two walked over. After some small talk, Brother Zheng asked,""How many craftsmen did you bring?"
"Master, there are fifty craftsmen in total!" Li Si quickly replied.”
Brother Zheng nodded. Fifty craftsmen should be enough.
He couldn't even learn how to smelt iron, forge, and make salt and wine with fifty people.
However, he still had to pave the way. Brother Zheng looked at Song Yuan and said,""How is it? Do you have enough manpower? I'm afraid it's more than enough to help you make salt and wine!”
Unexpectedly, Song Yuan said," It's probably not enough. From today onwards, I'm going to build a steel factory. The Song Army needs to forge weapons, and this requires a large amount of steel! These fifty people were enough to make iron.”
Brother Zheng raised his eyebrows and stopped hinting. At least he could learn how to smelt iron and forge.
As for the other things, he would learn them slowly in the future.
On the other hand, Li Si and the other two were restless. They looked into the village from time to time, wanting to see the drill ground and private soldiers that the Emperor had mentioned, as well as the saltworks and ironsmiths that were mentioned in the secret order yesterday.
"Father-in-law, why don't you take Elder Wang and the other two to see the village?" Song Yuan asked.”
Li Si and the other two immediately looked at Brother Zheng with anticipation in their eyes.
"Of course. Lead the way!" Brother Zheng nodded.”
Song Yuan nodded and walked into the village.
Brother Zheng walked with him while Meng Tian trailed behind, walking side by side with Li Si and the other two.
"Brother, why did Old Master suddenly want to stay here?" Meng Yi whispered.”
Meng Tian smiled mysteriously." Wipe your eyes properly later. You'll know what it means to be better than others."”
Meng Yi opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.
He was so unfamiliar with his brother!
Li Si and Wang Jian exchanged glances when they saw this. Commander Meng's behavior caused them to be slightly surprised.
Meng Tian, who was usually extremely meticulous and did not reveal her thoughts, actually revealed such a strange smile?
It seemed that in these 20 days, the Song Manor had undergone great changes.
The three of them were looking forward to it even more. After all, they had only heard Meng Tian's narration every time. They did not have much of an idea. Now, they had to take a good look.
At this moment, the three of them had already arrived at the field.
Song Yuan stopped in his tracks and turned to Li Si and the others.""The three of you, this is the village's farmland. That is the curved shaft plow, which can increase the efficiency of reclamation.”
"That vertical disc in the distance is called the waterwheel. It can free up manpower and water the plants.”
"The seedlings in the fields are all planted with sweet potatoes and potatoes. Both of them are high-yield food crops!”
When Li Si and the other two saw this, they lost interest.
They had already seen Qu Yuanli and the waterwheel in the Imperial Field.
As for sweet potatoes and potatoes, he didn't know what to say. One yield of 2000 catties per mu and the other yield of 6000 catties per mu were too ridiculous.
Although they had already made their mark, it was still unknown if the production rate was real or fake.
When Song Yuan saw this, he was also a little puzzled. Why were they all so calm?
It looked like he had to give them some shocking news!
