Chapter seven hundred and twenty fifth awakened blacksmith
Looking at the five blacksmiths kneeling on the ground, Di Xin sighed inwardly.
Feudal ideas kill people. If this were a great nation like Blue Star, even if they were facing the leaders of a country, the people would dare to sit down and chat together while respecting them.
The ideological construction of the human race in the Ancient Moon Realm still has a long way to go!
However, this kind of feudal society also has some advantages that are not advantages.
Facing the five blacksmiths who refused to sit down, Di Xin deliberately said with a straight face: "I tell you to sit down, so you sit down. Do you know the consequences of disobeying my order?"
"This... thank you so much, Your Highness."
Several blacksmiths looked bitter. They did not dare to sit with the prince, but they were also afraid of the prince's punishment.
After struggling for a moment, they saw that Di Xin's expression remained unchanged, so they had no choice but to stand up and sit down shakily.
Although they sat down, their bodies remained upright, as if the chair was nailed under their buttocks, and they were ready to jump up at the slightest movement.
However, Di Xin nodded secretly.
Although the method he used was a bit tough, as long as this layer of rules was broken, they would not be so resistant when encountering this kind of situation in the future.
And the benefits of doing this don’t end here.
After these five blacksmiths return, they will definitely tell the people around them about the situation in the General's Mansion, and then the people around them will continue to spread the word.
In this way, the good news that common people and princes can sit together will soon spread throughout Yanque Pass, and then the entire border pass.
As long as this kind of thing happens a few more times, these people will no longer be so submissive when facing officials, but will have more confidence.
Now that the prince can sit with the common people, what do these officials mean?
Therefore, although this is just a small thing today, people's thinking is subtly changed in such small things, and the concept of equality for everyone will become a seed buried in everyone's hearts.
When the seeds completely burst into growth, that's when the world will undergo huge changes.
As for the fact that they feel more uncomfortable sitting than standing, Di Xin doesn't believe how long a few ordinary people without training can persist.
When they relax, that's when their inner defenses are broken.
Sure enough, in less than half a quarter of an hour, one of the blacksmiths could no longer hold on.
He glanced at Di Xin quietly and found that His Royal Highness Prince Yu was not paying attention to him, so he slightly changed his posture to make himself sit more comfortably.
And soon, he glanced at His Royal Highness Prince Yu again, and then moved slightly. Just like this, little by little, he finally changed into a comfortable posture.
It was at this moment that Di Xin's eyes came over.
The blacksmith tensed up and subconsciously wanted to stand up, but found that His Royal Highness Prince Yu seemed to have simply moved his neck and did not notice him.
Later, His Highness Prince Yu's eyes swept over him a few more times, and he gradually became familiar with His Highness Prince Yu's eyes, and slowly relaxed.
When several other blacksmiths saw this, their hearts moved. In fact, they could hardly hold on any longer.
Soon, all the blacksmiths changed into comfortable positions and sat on their chairs.
After several blacksmiths relaxed, some even became drowsy because the study room was too warm.
Then the next moment he woke up with a start.
Therefore, the blacksmith has been working next to a large burning iron furnace all year round, and has become accustomed to the smell of burned gases in the air. However, due to some things, he is more sensitive to the black smoke after burning coal.
However, he now felt that the air in the study was too clean.
Naturally, the study room of the General's Mansion does not have the large iron stove of the blacksmith's shop, but it is winter now, and in order to keep warm, those who can afford it will burn some coal in their rooms.
He had just seen clearly that what Prince Yu put into the "coal stove" was not the legendary anthracite, but normal bituminous coal.
Even if the bituminous coal used by His Highness Prince Yu is relatively high-grade, there is no way there will be no black smoke at all.
The awakened blacksmith quickly set his sights on the coal stove in the center of the room, then moved up the slender iron cylinder, and finally landed at the intersection of the iron cylinder and the house.
No matter what era we are in, people's IQs are actually not low. What they lack is just a little insight, and what they need is just a little touch.
After the blacksmith who knew everything at once withdrew his gaze, he happened to meet His Royal Highness Prince Yu who was looking at him with a smile on his face.
At this time, half an hour had passed since Di Xin put in the coal.
Subconsciously swallowing a sip of saliva, he was shocked by what he discovered. At the same time, he boldly asked Di Xin for confirmation: "Your Highness, could it be..."
Di Xin didn't wait for him to finish speaking before he smiled and said, "You'll know when you go out and take a look."
One word woke everyone up.
Except for the blacksmith who had been battling wits with him for a long time, the others were already a little bored waiting. After hearing Di Xin's words, they quickly stood up and left the study.
Then, they looked up along the line of sight of the first blacksmith who came out of the study, and happened to see half of the iron cylinder protruding from the study.
Black smoke was still rising from the middle of the iron cylinder.
Zeng Hongshen and Xizi quickly figured out the principle, with shock in their eyes; then several blacksmiths followed; and finally, Wang Ruoqing, Laifu and Xiaocui also understood it one by one.
It turns out that this is the surprise His Highness said.
Di Xin was the last one to come out.
Looking at everyone with shocked faces, Di Xin chuckled lightly, attracted everyone's attention, and then spoke.
"With the coal stove, the black smoke can flow along the iron cylinder - by the way, I call it a chimney. The black smoke can be discharged outside along the chimney. People inside the house will no longer be choked by the black smoke. On winter nights
There is no need to worry about whether to close the window when sleeping because of worries about suffocation.”
Xizi has been studying various policies to benefit the people with people in the think tank, and subconsciously thought of the people everywhere: "In other words, if coal stoves can be promoted, no one will ever close the window for sleeping in winter.
And died unexpectedly.”
As soon as her voice fell, the blacksmith, who had almost woken up from falling asleep, suddenly squatted on the ground and cried loudly.
Another blacksmith sighed and explained for him: "Last year, his mother forgot to open the window when she went to bed, and was choked to death in her sleep by the black smoke from the burning charcoal pot."
"If this thing had existed, his mother would not have to die."
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
What the blacksmith said was not an exception. Every winter, many people die from suffocation due to black smoke, especially during the coldest days of the year.
You may suffocate if you don't open the window, but you may freeze to death if you open the window. Rich and powerful people have their own ways to survive safely, but for ordinary people, they can only resign themselves to fate and take a gamble.
But it's different now.
Except for the wailing blacksmith, everyone looked at Di Xin.
