When Shen Ao heard this, he glared and was about to speak out, but was stopped by Yang Ke's eyes.
Then Yang Ke ordered people to find Shen Xiyao without any nonsense.
Not long after, the monarch and his ministers watched Shen Xiyao walk into the imperial study room.
After seeing the ceremony, Yang Ke spoke first.
"Xiyao, this is Tang Yi, the supervisor of the Shaofu."
Shen Ao frowned as he watched his granddaughter look at Tang Yi unscrupulously.
Women shouldn't stare at someone so rudely.
That's right. Mu Jianming is not offline yet.
He was not like Shen Xiyao who followed the etiquette of walking with his head lowered and his eyes fixed. He had long seen Shen Ao and a man who looked like an old farmer standing in the imperial study room.
"I've met Tang Jianzheng."
Tang Yi returned the greeting and said: "Chang Shi Shen, I have heard of his name for a long time but have never had the opportunity to meet him. I am lucky today. I have a few questions to ask."
Without waiting for Mu Jianming's consent, he raised the manual in his hand and continued.
"The person who recorded the smelting process of fine iron..."
"People from the Wei Dynasty are young and powerful."
As if he knew what Tang Yi wanted to ask, Mu Jianming answered the question Tang Yi wanted to ask before Tang Yi finished speaking.
Tang Yi was obviously relieved.
"Changshi Shen presented the sand casting method, and I was greatly shocked after seeing it. Changshi Shen has a lot of experience in blacksmithing. Will you be willing to come to my young master's house to supervise it?"
Shen Ao was a little anxious and was about to speak, but when he saw the emperor's glance, his words were blocked in his throat. He could only stare at his granddaughter nervously.
Yang Ke, Chu Rupeng, and Cheng Kangmin also looked at Shen Xiyao, but they saw Shen Xiyao shaking her head.
"I don't want to!"
"Why?"
Tang Yi asked anxiously.
However, Shen Ao felt relieved and smiled proudly.
"I don't know how to blacksmith, so why did I go there? Besides..."
Mu Jianming raised his arms, stretched out his sides, and turned around again. He felt a little ashamed and said, "Is it appropriate for a woman like me to walk into a smelting place?"
Tang Yi waved his hand quickly.
"Chang Shi Shen has misunderstood. I came to the Shaofu Supervisor just to ask for some advice from Chang Shi. I will not go to the smelting plant."
"I won't go there either. But..."
Mu Jianming turned to Yang Ke.
"If Your Majesty establishes another yamen, I would be willing to give it a try."
Yang Ke was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Shen Xiyao would suddenly change the topic to him.
"Oh? What Yamen is it?"
"I call it the Institute."
The monarch and his ministers all looked at each other.
"Study what?"
Yang Ke asked.
He did not answer the emperor's question directly and turned to Tang Yi.
"Tang Jianzheng, is the iron smelted in Shaofu Jian sure to be successful every time?"
Tang Yi shook his head.
"No.
The quality of the refined iron smelted by mines in various places is different and cannot be controlled. Masters with good craftsmanship can make judgments and adjustments during the iron smelting process based on their experience. The quality of the refined iron they smelt is not much different. But if it is ordinary The craftsmen will always refining a few furnaces, and then under the guidance of the master craftsmen, they will slowly accumulate experience and know how to make adjustments."
"Then, has Tang Jianzheng ever thought about why this is happening?"
"this……"
Tang Yi paused awkwardly.
"I also asked the master craftsmen, but they couldn't tell. They just thought that this was how it was passed down from the ancestors."
Shen Xiyao looked at Yang Ke and reached out to take the manual out of Tang Yi's hand.
"Your Majesty, this manual records some characteristics of the ore, as well as the control of the furnace fire during the iron smelting process, the use of carbon materials and some later processing methods.
It can be said that even an apprentice who has never wielded a hammer can become a master craftsman as long as he learns the things in this book.
But why do we need to control the fire? Can only charcoal be used as the carbon material? Can coal be used?
No one can answer these questions.
The research institute is to study these issues to find the most cost-effective method in smelting. In addition, it also needs to study how to obtain refined iron with other characteristics. For example, harder refined iron, or refined iron with higher toughness.
Not only that, the institute can also study other things, as long as it can increase production and reduce costs."
Science and technology are primary productive forces.
What great men say is always correct.
In the imperial study room, the monarch and his ministers were a little confused.
"Changshi Shen, the imperial court also issued a decree to praise the new methods, tools, skills, etc. provided by craftsmen in various departments. Is it necessary to establish this Yamen?"
Shen Xiyao did not answer Cheng Kangming's question and turned around to face Tang Yi.
"Tang Jianzheng, why don't you consider that this book is dedicated to me? Then what do you think of the person who compiled this book?"
Tang Yi pondered briefly.
"This kind of practice is very valuable. Skills like this can be passed down from generation to generation as family heirlooms. If it is compiled into a book, it is willing to make it public, which is rare in the world."
Shen Xiyao also said: "The current progress of various technologies only relies on the passive promotion of craftsmen, and never takes the initiative to research.
Because craftsmen pay the most attention to manufacturing in actual production, but very little to research.
Previous dynasties have not paid much attention to the progress and development of technology from the imperial level. If one or two talented craftsmen are lucky enough to appear, they will promote the progress of the corresponding technology, and the national power will increase significantly. But if this does not happen, Without people, the development of technology is extremely slow.
In addition, the craftsmen cherish their respective skills very much and do not tell others about them. They will even reveal some of the most critical skills before they die.
In addition, most of the craftsmen are illiterate, so even if they want to record some unique skills, they simply cannot do it.
All of this means that technology can only be passed down through word of mouth. Once the spread is interrupted, technological progress has to start all over again.
And those who have the ability to record these cannot record according to the actual situation, and they will more or less show off their writing skills.
But this showing off will create a situation where the craftsmen cannot understand, and other literati do not know the specific situation and cannot understand it.”
These words made the imperial study room become more audible.
Chu Rupeng and Tang Yi fell into deep thought.
Cheng Kangming shook his head and seemed to disagree with this statement.
Shen Ao's performance was the most complicated, with confusion in his eyes.
As the person closest to Shen Xiyao in the Imperial Study Room, Shen Xiyao sensed something was wrong the moment she stepped into the Imperial Study Room.
After all, as a woman, she would not stare at Tang Yi so rudely.
This was also the first time he saw what his granddaughter said was the appearance of another soul in his body.
Mu Jianming lowered his eyes and didn't look at anyone.
These ideas were the direction he set after constant exploration during the nearly two years since he came to this world.
Since God allowed him to come to this world, Mu Jianming must leave his mark in this world.
Mu Jianming also thought a lot about how to do it specifically.
When Mu Jianming first came to this world, he tried various methods and determined that he had no system or other cheats at all, which are standard items for time-travelers.
Since he didn't have these things, Mu Jianming had to find a way on his own.
Let him take charge?
Not to mention that in the previous life, various departments had a clear division of labor, but now the chief official is in charge of agricultural production, water conservancy construction, public security cases, population growth, etc. He does not have that experience.
Even if he has experience in governing, he is a woman and will be looked down upon by others. In addition, he has no trustworthy subordinates and relies only on subordinates. That's not how he fooled him. If something goes wrong, that's not the case. Kidding.
To expand territory?
Shen Xiyao might be able to do it. After all, he is a martial artist and his skills are pretty good. But him? Well, no more joking.
Promote the development of certain technologies?
Mu Jianming did not study science and engineering in his previous life. It would be a fool's dream to expect him to do it by himself. Therefore, he can only be paired with various craftsmen and rely on some insights from later generations to give the craftsmen some guidance. Only in this way can it be possible. .
"Your Majesty, what Shen said seems to make sense."
After coming over for a while, Chu Rupeng spoke.
"Oh? What should I say?"
"The Huanshou Sword of the Han Dynasty also shined in the war between Han and Hungary. After the chaos of the late Han Dynasty, the Huanshou Sword gradually disappeared. To this day, even if our swords are beneficial to the world, we can't create another Huanshou Sword. It can be seen that what Shen Geishi said is true."
Cheng Kangming also spoke out.
"Your Majesty, I agree with this matter, but the matter is serious and requires long-term consideration."
Yang Ke adjusted his posture, frowning and thinking.
As an emperor, he knew the value of what Shen Xiyao said.
"Tang Yi."
Yang Ke suddenly spoke.
"Wei Chen is here."
Tang Yi quickly agreed.
"You will copy the book yourself. The original copy was given to the palace for safekeeping. You can take the copy and check what is recorded in the book."
"promise."
Tang Yi agreed, took the manual from Shen Xiyao, turned and left the imperial study.
"Changshi Shen, you should go down first."
"The old minister also resigned."
Seeing the opportunity, Shen Ao also took the initiative to resign, and the grandfather and grandson left the imperial study.
After following Shen Ao for dozens of steps, Shen Ao suddenly turned around and said, "You are not Yao'er."
Mu Jianming stood still and his eyes suddenly opened wide.
"No matter who you are, no matter how you took over Yao'er's body, you must not harm her, otherwise I will definitely find a way to find you out."
The old general squinted his eyes and looked at the person in front of him, and the murderous aura that he had been fighting for half his life was instantly released.
Mu Jianming felt nervous and broke out in a cold sweat.
It turns out that the so-called murderous intention really exists.
Shen Ao snorted, regained all his momentum, turned around and continued walking out of the palace.
After standing still for a moment, Shen Xiyao looked around doubtfully, then looked up at the familiar figure of her grandfather not far ahead.
I sighed slightly in my heart, what happened during the time when Mu Jianming appeared? I haven't left any information for myself, and I am trapped in a situation where I am neither good nor bad.
In Hong Hotel.
Wang Weirensheng sat helplessly on the steps in front of the hall, leaning against a pillar and in a daze. Others passing by looked at him with pity.
as well as……
behind him.
A small team of twelve Wei Yulin Guards with distinctive armor and majesty.
