When Qin Yun followed Hou Junji to the foot of White Cloud Monastery's mountain, he saw many soldiers attempting to bring up the grain carts.
"How is it?"
Hou Junji asked.
"It fell to the bottom of the valley. It's very difficult to get it up.”
Hou Junji glanced down the cliff."I don't care what method you use, but you must get the food that fell down. The army is already short of food. If we lose a few more carts of food, how am I going to explain it to His Majesty?”
Zhangsun Wuji walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at the bottom of the valley. He shook his head and said,"It's basically impossible to get food up such a high cliff.”
Qin Yun stared at the bottom of the valley and said,""Although the cliff is high, it's not impossible to get food up.”
"What is it?"
Zhangsun Wuji and Hou Junji looked at Qin Yun at the same time.
Qin Yun said," Wait for me here. I'll be right back."”
Seeing Qin Yun leave, Hou Junji continued commanding his soldiers. He was prepared to use ropes to drag people down and bring up the food.
However, because the cliff was too high, no matter what they did, it would not work.
Soon, Qin Yun returned.
A bundle of iron chains and an iron wheel appeared in his hand.
"What is this?"
Hou Junji asked in confusion.
Qin Yun said," This thing is called a roller. It has the ability to shift a thousand pounds with just a few taels of silver. Now, find a support point to hold the iron wheels in place. Then, get someone to bring the chains down and tie up the grain cart. Then, pull it up. We will definitely be able to pull the grain cart up.”
Looking at the chains in Qin Yun's hand, Hou Junji began to wonder if Qin Yun's method would work.
"Alright, I'll try."
Since there was no other way, Hou Junji decided to give it a try. He began to follow Qin Yun's method.
Soon, soldiers came down into the valley with iron chains, tied up the grain carts, and pulled them up.
Originally, if he had to rely on manpower, he would need a lot of strength.
However, with the help of the wheels, a single person could lift up a grain cart that weighed hundreds of kilograms.
When all the carriages were loaded, one of the soldiers came up to Hou Junji and clasped his hands."General, this thing is too useful. We didn't use much strength to lift all the food up.”
Hou Junji asked doubtfully.
Seeing that there was still a cart of food that had not been unloaded, he walked over and grabbed the chain, pulling it hard.
He easily lifted up the several hundred jin grain cart.
"This…"
Hou Junji was shocked to see that he could actually lift a carriage that weighed several hundred jin with one hand.
"If this thing is used to hang stones when building the city wall, I'm afraid it will save a lot of effort.”
Zhangsun Wuji walked over to pull the chain.
A cart of food was easily pulled up by him.
"Why is it so light?"
Normally, he wouldn't even be able to move a grain cart that weighed a few hundred catties.
But now, he only needed one hand to hang it up.
"Little Abbey Dean, this thing of yours is really magical. It weighs a few hundred pounds, but I can actually lift it with one hand.”
Qin Yun said with a smile," That's nothing. Let alone a few hundred pounds, even a few thousand pounds would be enough for a person to easily lift.”
"Is that true?"
Hou Junji's eyes widened.
If what Qin Yun said was true, it would be a great invention.
Qin Yun smiled." General Hou, if you don't believe me, you can test it now.”
Hou Junji muttered to himself for a moment, then went to find a boulder weighing several thousand jin to test.
The result was obvious. He was easily lifted up by the rollers.
"Amazing, this is amazing. Little Abbey Dean, did you invent this thing?”
Qin Yun said," That's right. After I forged it, I rarely used it. If it wasn't for the fact that your food had fallen, I wouldn't have taken it out.”
Zhangsun Wuji said," Little Abbey Dean, you're too good at hiding your skills. If such a good thing were to be promoted in the Great Tang, it would definitely benefit the people. Why didn't you take it out earlier?"”
"Right." Hou Junji nodded."This is the most suitable tool for transporting heavy objects."”
Qin Yun said," Actually, there are many ways to use this thing. For example, if you install a roller on the well, you can use it to get water. This saves energy compared to using your hands.”
Zhangsun Wuji nodded." That's right. Why didn't I think of that? Do you have the blueprint? Give it to me. After I return to the palace, I'll present this invention to His Majesty and let His Majesty promote it in the Great Tang."”
Qin Yun smiled." Of course I do. If you want it, I can give it to you now.”
Most of the things Qin Yun created had blueprints.
"Very good. If His Majesty uses it and rewards you, I will definitely not forget you.”
Zhangsun Wuji said excitedly after receiving the blueprint.
Qin Yun said," Since the rations have been hoisted up, it's time for me to return.”
" Qin Yun."
At that moment, Zhangsun Wanting called out to Qin Yun.
"What's the matter?"
"Can I come and find you when I'm free in the future?" Zhangsun Wanting paused and said.”
"Don't misunderstand. I just want to see if your cooking is really as good as my father said.”
Qin Yun said with a smile," Of course. Alright, I'm leaving.”
With that said, Qin Yun turned and left.
As Zhangsun Wanting watched Qin Yun leave, Hou Junji whispered into Zhangsun Wuji's ear,""Lord Zhangsun, look, the souls of your children have been stolen by the young abbey dean.”
Zhangsun Wuji looked at Zhangsun Wanting, who was in a daze, and smiled.""Isn't that good? If they really developed feelings for each other, it would save me trouble.”
"Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to quickly report this great invention to His Majesty.”
With that, he pulled Zhangsun Wanting and turned to leave.
