Chapter 178: Court officials: Phew... Fortunately their eyes flashed quickly enough!
Emperor Jin Yuan suppressed his surging emotions and said in a low but firm voice: "The waterwheel test begins now!"
"Yes, sir!" The people gathered around answered in unison. Their expressions were extremely solemn and their attitudes were extremely respectful.
Qin Yue was equally excited, she secretly shouted in her heart: [Oh yeah, the test has finally started! Yo hoo! ]
Then, a figure as light as a swallow and nimble as a bird climbed to the center of the waterwheel quickly.
The man was agile and stood steadily on the axle, holding tightly in his hand a kinetic crystal that shone with mysterious light.
He carefully embedded the kinetic crystal into the depression in the middle of the waterwheel with incredible precision. The moment the kinetic crystal was embedded, the waterwheel seemed to be given life, and the entire waterwheel seemed to flash with brilliance for a moment.
After completing this crucial step, the man jumped without hesitation and landed on the ground as fast as a ghost.
At the same time, another person below quickly removed the stone slab where the water wheel started the water inlet with lightning speed.
When both sides were ready, a deafening "boom" sound suddenly rang out.
The huge waterwheel began to turn slowly and steadily. Each rotation carried a sense of heavy power, and everyone seemed to feel the ground shaking.
As the waterwheel turned, the lake water was gradually driven up, flowing slowly along the blades of the waterwheel and into different canals.
The clear water makes a crisp and pleasant "splashing" sound, rushing forward happily, continuously moistening the fertile fields.
Gradually, the soil in some farmland has become moist, obviously having been sufficiently nourished by water.
At this moment, something magical happened! The waterwheel seemed to see that the farmland had "drunk" and automatically stopped pumping water into the canal!
This astonishing scene left everyone present dumbfounded.
They originally thought that the functions described in the instruction manual were just an exaggeration, but now after seeing it with their own eyes, they realized that this water truck can really automatically control the amount of water injected according to the conditions of the farmland, without any human intervention.
Emperor Jin Yuan witnessed all this and felt a surge of heroic spirit in his heart. He could not suppress his inner joy and couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahahahahahahahahahaha!"
Emperor Yuan of Jin's laughter resounded like thunder, causing the people around him to laugh as well!
They seemed to see through the scene before their eyes the prosperous and green farmland of the future; further away, they even saw the beautiful scene of the booming and thriving development of the entire Southern Dynasty!
Qin Yue was also infected by everyone's joyful atmosphere. She couldn't help but excitedly said in her heart: [Hahahaha! Sister, this waterwheel is really amazing! ]
System: [Hehe! Host, I told you a long time ago that the goods in our points mall are definitely good things with great value for money! Look at this waterwheel, it can bring great convenience to the people of our Southern Dynasty! ]
Qin Yue was also convinced at this moment, and said happily: "Sister, you are so right! The things in the points mall are really worth it! I will continue to eat melons and accumulate points, and then go shopping!"
System: [Okay! Let’s continue to work hard to eat melons! ]
When Emperor Yuan of Jin heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up again and again: Xiao Fuguan is really the lucky star of the Southern Dynasty! Please continue to eat melons, accumulate points, and shop happily! He was very happy to be the "scapegoat", hahahaha!
Lord Qin: Your Majesty, you are not pretending at all now, right?
The Qin family members who followed along were even more excited. It was a great honor for them to witness the first test of such an agricultural tool that would benefit the people!
All this is thanks to Sister Yue!!
Lord Qin: Hey, hey, hey! Why doesn't anyone praise him? If he hadn't taken the initiative to recommend himself to Your Majesty and chosen his own manor as the testing site, you would probably have to wait until the waterwheel is fully promoted before you have a chance to see it!
I really don't know how to be grateful, huh! !
So far, the first test of the waterwheel has been a complete success, but the follow-up work still requires the Ministry of Industry to continue its efforts.
They need to manufacture the water truck themselves based on the data and experience from this test and ensure that its quality and performance meet the requirements.
I believe that it won’t be long before such efficient and practical water wheels can be seen everywhere in the vast fields of the entire Southern Dynasty.
As for what will happen next, that is not something Qin Yue needs to worry about. After all, she is just a child!
After the initial excitement, the little guy soon fell into a sweet sleep again.
The system naturally also digested the melon field energy collected this time.
Minister Lin, who had just finished visiting the waterwheel test, originally thought that he could finally stop working overtime and have a good rest. However, he was stopped by the old steward of the Lin family who had been waiting for a long time and was directly captured.
In the following days, although Minister Lin did not work overtime as usual, he was forced to work overtime in a different way, which made him physically and mentally exhausted...
The next morning, Qin Yue finally had the rare opportunity to stay in bed a little longer than usual.
Qin Yue completed a series of actions such as changing diapers and putting on official uniforms in a daze and then was carefully carried into the carriage by Lord Qin.
Of course, for Qin Yue, the essential daily rations had naturally been prepared long ago, and a half-full bottle of milk was hung steadily on Qin Yue's shoulder.
As long as Qin Yue returned to the Qin Mansion, Lu would fill the bottle with milk from time to time.
Although the water level in the bottle is still about half full, enough milk has actually been stored in it.
So Qin Yue skipped the step of breastfeeding in the morning and could naturally sleep a little longer.
Anyway, no matter when she is hungry, she can just open her little mouth and drink her rations.
The carriage moved slowly forward towards the palace, while Qin Yue continued to indulge in a sweet dream in the swaying.
At this moment in the court, the ministers who had been excited all day yesterday seemed a little listless. After all, what happened yesterday was really too exciting.
After they returned to their mansion, they showed off to their families for a long time, making their family members extremely envious.
However, after such excitement, it is naturally difficult to fall asleep...
However, the moment Qin Yue appeared in front of everyone, everyone's eyes suddenly brightened again, and the whole person seemed to be radiant and energetic again.
When Qin Yue woke up and opened her eyes, she once again felt as if countless bright stars were twinkling in front of her eyes, but these stars disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Court officials: Phew... Fortunately their eyes were quick enough!
Qin Yue looked around the court until he saw a person. He paused and wondered in his heart: [Huh?]
