Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

He was shocked by Xiao Yun's boldness.    

"This must be a good sum of money!"    

He stared at Xiao Yun, not knowing what this guy was trying to do.    

Xiao Yun touched his nose and said, "My father is fighting in front of us. I don't know how he is doing. I naturally have to do what I can do in the back. Besides... When he was in South City, he had befriended an old friend. It seems like I still owe him a favor, which is why I have always had such a plan. Today is the perfect day. "    

"Perfect?"    

"[That's right, if the grasslanders don't want anything after getting the potatoes...] Sigh, there will always be the suspicion of being stubborn and buying people's hearts. It's better for the peasant to be more shameless."    

Only he dared to say such words out loud.    

Although everyone understood.    

But none of them said it.    

This couldn't be said!    

Xiao Yun coughed twice and continued, "Your Majesty, I hope that Your Majesty can help the peasants with this matter."    

His Majesty waved his hand and said, "This was originally a good thing, but... even if you took the West City, you would have to spend money to build it, and you would still have to give the house to the people in the West City. Are you sure you want to do this? Won't you compensate me? "    

Xiao Yun laughed and said, "Your Majesty, the peasants naturally have their ways."    

" Fine. "    

His majesty looked at Xiao Yun.    

He couldn't help but mutter in his heart.    

This fellow had done a lot of strange things.    

But he had never suffered a loss!    

He was worried about him, that was definitely worrying too much.    

After thinking for a while, His Majesty nodded and said, "Then I will agree to this matter. As for this potato..."    

"The commoner wants to keep a cart for himself."    

"Dream on!"    

"The king said this before. "    

"Then why must you force me to say it a second time? "    

Xiao Yun touched his nose and said, "His Majesty feels that the matter of planting it is done by the people in the court to be more reliable. Or is it more reliable for the peasants to do it? Of course, His Majesty had to supervise it, and the peasants had to do it at the same time. It can be considered to be holding back."    

"Hmm..."    

His Majesty seriously thought for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Fine, we'll do as you say."    

He heard what Xiao Yun said.    

He was also a bit scared.    

The people of the royal family were handling matters...    

Thinking about it carefully, there was indeed nothing reassuring about the pile after pile.    

Furthermore, he looked at the performance of the officials.    

He thought that everyone would be shocked by this auspicious sign's greatness.    

However, there wasn't even a single person singing.    

This caused the Emperor to feel a bit bored.    

He pursed his lips. He could only end this court session early and let it go.    

Xiao Yun headed home right away.    

Behind him was naturally the horse carriage filled with potatoes.    

However, he did not go home straight away. Instead, he went to the Gold Hidden Pavilion and found Wu Xi. He told Wu Xi that he was safe and then asked him to arrange some people.    

Wait. After returning home, he asked his men to flatten the entire backyard of the Xiao family.    

He also got some soil.    

He naturally couldn't plant potatoes in winter.    

The temperature of the sprouting was at least 20 degrees Celsius.    

If it was cold, the potatoes would not have any reaction at all, just like hibernation, which would stop all growth.    

This was also what made Xiao Yun a little distressed.    

The development of any industry actually required the support of other industries' technological innovation.    

For example, agriculture, which seemed to have nothing to do with other industries, also needed the support of other industries' technology in order to develop.    

Plowing land needed plow.    

If they used manpower, it would be strenuous.    

If he wanted to use cattle?    

They would need the support of animal husbandry.    

If you use wood ploughing to do it, the speed would naturally be very slow, and it would always be bad.    

The iron plow would be much better.    

But this required the development of the metallurgy industry.    

If one wanted to exorcise insects, remove weeds, fertilize, other than those soil methods, one also needed the support of the chemical industry.    

If one wanted to plant vegetables and fruits in the winter.    

In his previous life, it was a very common thing.    

People were already used to eating fresh fruits and vegetables in the winter.    

But in fact, in Xiao Yun's era, this kind of thing only happened less than a hundred years ago. Even when he was young, he had never enjoyed this kind of emperor treatment.    

Because if one wanted to plant food in winter, they had to build a greenhouse and a greenhouse.    

To put it bluntly, it was the temperature and light.    

On one hand, he had to keep it warm and on the other, he had to ensure light.    

The greenhouse was a good choice.    

On the surface, it seemed that the goods were cheap and the results were very high.    

But in fact, the technical support it needed was plastic!    

It was transparent and thin, able to block wind and rain, isolate temperature, but also maintain a transparent property. It could be said to be a great invention.    

The existence of plastic cloth was the foundation of the greenhouse.    

And a greenhouse?    

The most common way was through transparent glass.    

It was similar to the principle of plastic cloth. They were both insulating and maintaining the light.    

There was another more powerful method, which was to create a greenhouse with artificial light sources.    

To put it bluntly, it was to light up the lights in the house.    

The cost was very high, but the things that were planted were all very good.    

But this required the support of industry.    

So the problem in front of Xiao Yun now was that he could not do anything!    

Without plastic, that thing required too many early stages of craftsmanship. This world could not produce it.    

Glass and the like, there were crystals.    

However, not everyone could take out such a large piece of transparent crystal. Even Xiao Yun, if he wanted to get so many crystals, he would have to carve them into this shape. Even he felt that it was a waste.    

However, there was still a way to solve this problem.    

He first got someone to use a thin wooden board to make a few things that looked like an ancient bag in the yard.    

What he needed to pay special attention to was that the corners of the wooden plank had to be perfectly connected.    

There could not be any gaps.    

He also sent people to the wood market to get a lot of pine trees in the Northern Lands.    

He wanted the whole one.    

He also got people to buy a lot of pine oil from other places.    

He then set up a stove next to the courtyard.    

Wait. Everything is ready, melting the pine oil directly and cutting the pine tree open, whether it's clotted pine oil or freshly baked pine oil, they're all smeared on the wood.    

A thick layer would be poured on it.    

In the cold wind, the natural resin would quickly solidify and turn into the agglomerated pine wood.    

This couldn't even be called amber.    

Amber was a fossil, to put it bluntly, it was a stone.    

Or rather, it was a natural plastic that was close to a stone.    

That required a million years of sediment to form.    

The things Xiao Yun made were just ordinary pine cones.    

Waiting for these pine joss sticks to form. It's thick enough.    

Wait until they are all solid.    

Xiao Yun then ordered his men to carefully remove the wooden board in the middle.    

He then polished and polished the inside of the wooden board.    

There was no need to grind the outer part. In a liquid state, the wood was flowing on its own, and the surface was already extremely smooth.    

As long as the inside of the mirror was polished into a mirror, the mirror would be at least tens of thousands of times more detailed, and the object would become completely transparent.    

Of course, it was not much different from transparent plastic or glass.    

This was very strange.    

Of course, if it was the same, it wouldn't be reliable.    

First of all, he didn't find Ping.    

Secondly, Xiao Yun's melting technique was also not good, so he made more impurities.    

Therefore, the permeability was around 70%.    

But this was already enough!    

After all of this was done.    

The people of Xiao mansion and the craftsmen.    

They looked at the courtyard with crazy eyes!    

"What... what kind of immortal realm is this? My God, a completely transparent house? "    

Every shed here was like a crystal tent.    

In their minds, only a fairyland would have such a scene.    

Of course, in this world, the only one who could do this was Xiao Yun.    

Because only he knew the strength of the pine incense. As long as it was thicker, it would be enough to support such a tent.    

If he was worried that it would not be able to support it, he could actually completely be like a tent and leave a few brackets inside.    

After all, as long as he had a bracket, he could even support a piece of rainproof silk cloth.    

And what was the most important thing?    

It was a parabola!    

On the surface, it could be "smoothened," but what about below? Those that were stuck on the wood?    

It could be said to be quite uneven.    

In order to do this, Xiao Yun first had people grind the wood flat. The surface of the wood could actually be grinded to a glossy level.    

As long as the thing that was polished was fine enough.    

This would save a lot of energy for the later polishing work. Moreover, these pieces of wood could be used again, so it would not be a loss no matter what.    

Then, he would grind the aromatic pine into a mirror.    

In the entire world, only Xiao Yun had this kind of grinding technique!    

Xiao family's workshop treated this as a treasure, and no one else could take a look at it.    

Only when both sides were mirrors and there were few impurities in the middle could it reach such a degree of brightness.    

Therefore, in the entire world, only Xiao Yun could do this!
