As a science student, Jin Feng had long understood that heavy crossbow catapults could easily be copied.
Therefore, he has always adhered to the concept of "equipment for one generation, reserve for one generation, and research and development for one generation" for armaments.
In Jin Feng's plan, the heavy catapult was enough for him to conquer Dakang. Hot air balloons and airships were storage weapons that could be used to reverse the situation at critical moments.
Unfortunately, the development of Dakang's situation over the past year far exceeded Jin Feng's expectations and completely disrupted his plan. He had to take out the hot air balloon in advance for emergency response.
Later, he was forced to have no choice but to get out the steam engine that he didn't like.
"It seems that we still need to speed up the upgrade of iron smelting technology and make the gun barrel as soon as possible!"
Jin Feng sighed in his heart and asked: "Are there many casualties on the front line?"
"Compared to before, it's quite big." Zhou Jin nodded.
As the head of military medicine, she knows the most about battlefield casualties.
"In the past, we had an absolute advantage and could achieve zero casualties in many cases, but now the enemy has catapults and heavy crossbows, and has also learned to hide in the dark and shoot cold arrows. The overall casualties on the front line of Qin have increased by three times compared with last month.
Times!"
Zhou Jin said: "Fortunately, we still have airships. We can often detect the opponent's ambush in advance, otherwise the casualties would have doubled at least!"
"When we go back, let Han Feng know and ask him to find out where King Qin made the heavy crossbows as soon as possible no matter what method he uses, and then send an airship to blow it up for me!" Jin Feng turned to look at the hammer.
"Got it!" Tie Shui also knew the seriousness of this matter and nodded quickly.
"Xiao Jin, where is Mr. Wei?" Jin Feng asked.
"Sir should be in the greenhouse!" Zhou Jin said with a smile: "Anyway, every time I go to the greenhouse to look for him, I can basically find him."
"Okay, you can continue your work, I'll go to the greenhouse to take a look."
Jin Feng nodded and led Zhao Yue and others out of the medical room.
After leaving the village and walking northwest for more than a hundred meters, they rounded the corner of a house and saw a row of strange-looking houses in front of them.
Zhao Yue, who came here for the first time, suddenly stopped and his eyes suddenly widened!
The house is generally a row of connected bungalows, about two meters high, and the surrounding walls are made of bricks.
This kind of bungalow is actually very common in Xihewan, almost all dormitories are like this.
What shocked Zhao Yue was that the roofs of this row of houses were not covered with tiles, but with crystal clear glass!
Under the sunlight, the glass shone with a dazzling light, which made Zhao Yue unable to open his eyes!
"Master Imperial Master...then...is that water jade?"
Zhao Yue asked, pointing to the roof.
"Yes!" Jin Feng nodded.
He couldn't make plastic yet, so he couldn't build a plastic greenhouse, so he built this row of greenhouses as a testing ground for Wei Wuya and Lao Tan.
Plants cannot grow without sunlight, and the temperature must be ensured in winter, so using glass as a roof is perfect.
But for Zhao Yue, water jade has always been an unattainable luxury, and now Jin Feng actually uses water jade as a roof...
"Master Imperial Master, aren't you... too extravagant?"
Zhao Yue was a little worried for Jin Feng.
There are many heroes in history who could have done great things, but after gaining power and tasting the sweetness of power and wealth, they lost their way and their lives became extravagant.
The end of these people is often not very good.
Zhao Yue hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and admonished him: "Master Imperial Master, I know that people speak softly, but I still want to say a few words... Now the world is uncertain and the people are still in dire straits... You can use water jade to make the roof.
It’s really…it really shouldn’t be!”
After saying that, he looked at Jin Feng with a tragic face, mentally prepared to be driven away by Jin Feng or even to be questioned.
As a result, I saw Kita Chihiro Iron Hammer, Chen Wenyuan and others all around them laughing.
"Old man, you are overthinking. My husband has found a way to mass-produce jade!"
Chen Wenyuan explained: "Now water jade is no longer valuable here. Paper mills, printing plants and normal colleges all use water jade to make windows!"
Nowadays, glass can no longer be sold to other places to make money, and glass has a wide range of uses. For the development of the village, Jin Feng no longer hides it and lets the glass workshop produce at full capacity.
With the support of Jinfeng, the output of the glass workshop continues to increase, and the quality is getting better and better.
People in the village are also becoming more and more familiar with glass.
"How to mass-produce water jade?"
Zhao Yue was stunned for a moment, then he bowed towards Jin Feng and clasped his fists, his face flushed and he said: "I use the heart of a villain to judge the belly of a gentleman, I hope your Majesty the Imperial Master will forgive me!"
"Old man, you are an outsider when you say that. The fact that you can say what you just said shows that you don't treat me as an outsider and you really think about me! You think about Xindakang! I should thank you!"
Jin Feng said this not to be polite, but he really felt this way just now.
As his status increased, people around him became more and more cautious when seeing him.
Many villagers who used to call him "Brother Feng", "Brother Jin" or "Boy Jin" when meeting him now have to bow first and then call him "Master National Master" or "Mr. Jin".
.
Even the old village chief now calls him sir.
This gave Jin Feng a feeling of loneliness, and it also made him understand that it would be difficult for him to hear the truth again in the future.
Zhao Yue was obviously hesitant just now, but in the end he still advised him.
This made Jin Feng very happy.
Of course, Jin Feng is not a masochist and only feels comfortable when he is scolded.
But he knows that if he only wants to hear good things, he may never hear the truth again.
Jin Feng did not want to become deaf and blind, so when training reporters, Jin Feng emphasized repeatedly that reporters must go through investigations and interviews when writing articles, and reports must be objective and fair! www.八一zw.????m
"It is my great fortune and the common people's fortune that you, sir, have such a big heart and magnanimity at such a young age!"
Zhao Yue saluted Jin Feng again.
"Old man, if you praise me a few more times, I'll be blown away!"
Jin Feng laughed and helped Zhao Yue into the greenhouse.
Since it is called a greenhouse, the temperature inside is naturally not low.
Wei Wuya and Lao Tan were wearing summer singlets and squatting on the ground to loosen the soil for the crops.
"This is...rice?"
Zhao Yue pointed to a row of green seedlings on the ground, a little unsure.
He is not a nerd who knows all kinds of things, but it is precisely because of this that he can't be sure.
Because farmers with common sense know that rice is a food crop in spring and summer, and it needs to be planted in paddy fields.
But although the row of green seedlings in front of me looks the same as rice seedlings, it is winter now, and the green seedlings are not planted in the water, but on the ridges.
This completely subverted Zhao Yue's understanding of rice.
"Mr. Zhao, this is not ordinary rice, but Champa rice brought from the far south!"
Jin Feng explained with a smile: "Champa rice is different from our Dakang rice."
