Chapter 130 There is no need to sacrifice to this extent!Because on the street where the Third Prince’s Palace is located, there are also residences of many important officials in the court. On the way back to the palace, Yun Shu inadvertently saw carriages with obvious logos of other mansions parked in front of the gates of several mansions. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be because of the new commercial tax issue that Emperor Xuanwu has repeatedly mentioned in the court in the past two days, many ministers have begun to discuss countermeasures in private. Unfortunately, their struggles were doomed to be in vain. Emperor Xuanwu was particularly determined to implement the new commercial tax this time. If it weren't for the fact that she was going to be promoted to the position of the Chamber of Commerce president, she would need to make more preparations to better deal with the opposition from the court officials. I'm afraid that in just these two days, he will be able to directly issue an edict to promulgate the new commercial tax! I don't know if Xiao Yuanzi can make what she wants before then... Yunshu had extremely high expectations for Xiao Yuanzi. Fortunately, Xiao Yuanzi did not let her down. First, there was Yunshu's promise to let him leave the palace, and then there was Yunshu's reminder that was almost at his lips. In addition, Xiao Yuanzi himself has an exceptional talent in this area.
A few days later, the successfully improved curved plow was delivered to Yunshu as scheduled. Along with it, Yun Chuhe's very personal letter was also sent in - […Although the curved plow that I finally made was not entirely made by me, it was, after all, an improvement on the spherical plow that I, your third brother, had been working on before. When fifth sister shows it to father, don't forget to give it to your third brother as well to take credit for it. My requirements are not high, just give me half of the credit! Of course, if Fifth Sister really doesn't want to... then forget it. I, your third brother, am very generous. As long as you treat me to a few meals at Tianwaitian, it will be a great contribution. I, your third brother, will give it to you! In addition, Xiao Yuanzi has also been working on the windlass ox, but he has failed many times. It seems that without your third brother like me paving the way ahead, this little Yuanzi’s level is just average. Fifth sister, don’t hold out too much hope...】 What I write from now on is just some meaningless nonsense. "Isn't this a coincidence?" After putting away the letter, Yun Shu raised his eyebrows—— It just so happens that she is not someone who likes to take all the credit. Since the third brother wants to take credit, then give it all to him! It's rare to have such an active scapegoat, she feels very relieved! Yun Shu happily asked someone to bring the curved plow, then turned around and headed towards the imperial study as if he was familiar with the route. Emperor Xuanwu, who had just come to see her an hour ago about the new commercial tax to be promulgated, said: "..." "Why are you here again?" He had been so busy these past few days trying to perfect the new commercial tax, deal with those annoying ministers in the court, and pave the way for Yun Shu that he even had no time to go to the harem. After finally finishing everything early today, Emperor Xuanwu was just planning to go to Concubine Liu's place to relax, but Yun Shu, the troublemaker, came back for some reason. Could something strange have happened again? Emperor Xuanwu narrowed his eyes: "Don't tell me that you regret it now and don't want to be the president of this Chamber of Commerce!" "Am I such an unreliable person?" Yun Shu was wrongly accused just after he entered the room and before he could even open his mouth. He protested in dissatisfaction:
"I came here to give you a great gift!" "Big gift?" Emperor Xuanwu paused for a moment and had some guesses in his mind, but he also felt it was a little unbelievable. After all, only a few days had passed. Perhaps the only thing she would call a great gift at this time is... "Could it be that the plow has been improved successfully?" "Father, you are so wise! You can even guess this!" Yun Shu curved her eyebrows, and as she skillfully slapped out a dragon fart, all the credit was given to her at the same time - "The last time I brought Xiao Yuanzi to Third Brother's house, Third Brother had already figured out the initial form of the improved plow, but the initial form had a lot of drawbacks and was completely unusable. Later, when Xiao Yuanzi listened to his third brother telling his son about his ideas for improvement, he suddenly had an inspiration and started to make improvements that day. These days, Xiao Yuanzi has been staying at the Third Brother's house. He should be working with the Third Brother to make continuous improvements. Until today, the task was finally completed, and I immediately had someone send the improved curved plow to the palace for my son!" "Quyuanli?" Emperor Xuanwu first pondered over these three words several times, and perhaps even imagined in his mind what they should look like. Then he realized that Yunshu had said that this thing had been sent to the palace, and he quickly asked again: "Where is it now? Have you verified that it is better than the previous plow?" "My third brother said that he and Xiao Yuanzi had tried it out yesterday at a farm outside the city, and it was indeed smaller, lighter, and more flexible than a plow. The most important thing is that even if we don’t use the ox, two people can still pull it!" Yun Shu's face showed no less excitement than Emperor Xuanwu's: "I have already had the things brought here. They are outside the Imperial Study now. Father, would you like to try it yourself?" "it is good!" Not only is it smaller, lighter and more flexible, The most important thing is that it can be pulled by manpower without the need for oxen! Although Yunshu also said that it would take two people, But to put it bluntly, human resources are the least valuable thing in this era. For the vast majority of poor people at the bottom of society, if they can save the money of renting a cow by working harder, they will not hesitate at all! Emperor Xuanwu stood up suddenly in excitement: "Li Dehai, prepare the carriage!" "There's no need to prepare a carriage!" My goodness, can the emperor just leave the palace whenever he wants? If something happens outside, and they settle the accounts, they will say that she was the one who instigated the person to go out. She cannot bear such a huge blame! Yun Shu didn't dare to take the blame, and quickly spoke out to stop him: "Father, it's not too early at this time today. It's really unnecessary to travel so far to the farm just to try out the improved plow.
In my opinion, there is not a lot of land in the palace. If it doesn't work, we can try in the Imperial Garden!" Emperor Xuanwu: “……?” Plowing the fields in the imperial garden? ? That was the place where he often went to relax and was occasionally encountered by his concubines! Thinking that he was tired of reviewing memorials, he decided to go to the Imperial Garden to relax and rest for a while. As soon as I got closer, I smelled the scent of fertilizer that had just been applied to the vegetable field. Or maybe a delicate beauty dancing in a vegetable field, her soft skirt dragging all over the muddy ground, or a cold concubine sitting on the field playing the zither and singing... Better say goodbye. It is not easy for him to be an emperor, so there is no need for him to make such sacrifices! (End of this chapter)
