Ignoring those craftsmen who can invent and create is a traditional drawback of the feudal dynasty. Lu Xuan has been trying to reverse this concept, but with little success. All he can do is to change some situations around him.

All the craftsmen who participated in improving the printing technology each received at least ten coins as a reward. The leader even received fifty coins. For these craftsmen, this was a huge sum of money that could only be imagined. In this way

, they are naturally enthusiastic and work more attentively.

Lu Xuan was able to provide a lot of ideas for movable type printing, but not for papermaking. He really had no experience in this matter. In fact, the papermaking technology of the Tang Dynasty was already very good. Due to the development of calligraphy, painting and other arts,

The papermaking technology of the Tang Dynasty also developed accordingly. When Lu Xuan traveled through time, he found that the paper made by others was beyond his imagination.

The only thing he can provide is that bamboo can also be used to make paper. There are also some concepts such as bleaching. The rest is up to the craftsmen to experiment on their own. In a sense, these people should actually be regarded as scientists of the Tang Dynasty.

.What they lack is only a kind of ideological liberation.

To this day, in fact, there is one most important item in people's livelihood that Lu Xuan has not touched upon. That is food. This does not only refer to food, but to food. In terms of increasing food production, Lu Xuan can

There's really not much to do.

He didn't know any of the various fertilizer formulas of later generations. Moreover, the cultivation of crops also took a long time. Or it would require a Yuan Longping. However, he did not have any of these.

Fortunately, Lu Xuan still knows a lot of useful information. For example, he knows that rice in Nanyang can even be harvested three times a year. Those yellow-skinned monkeys don't even have to work. They lie in the woods and sleep every day.

Eat some wild fruits and you'll be full. The land and climate in that area are like heaven-sent soil for the farming culture. It's a pity that it fell into the hands of a group of monkeys.

There is another big killer, sweet potato. This thing should come from the Philippines, which is now Luzon. Sweet potato has high yield and strong adaptability. It can be used as both rice and fruit. There is no shortage of sugar and starch.

It is a perfect anti-hunger food. The stalks can also be used to feed livestock, and can even be eaten by humans.

In his previous life, when Lu Xuan was a child, he heard stories from his family members. During the early famine years, his village was the only village in the surrounding generation where no one had starved to death. This was because a large number of sweet potatoes were grown in the village and sliced ​​and dried into sweet potatoes.

They dried it and stored it as food. Later, they even ate the sweet potato leaves and sweet potato stalks. By doing so, they successfully survived the famine.

Lu Xuan's family also has a deep affection for sweet potatoes. Even after Lu Xuan became an adult, most of the land in the family has been donated to others. However, a few small mountain plots will still be retained for growing millet and sweet potatoes. (This is

The real situation of my family is that I don’t have to do other farm work. But I have to go harvest sweet potatoes and millet. These are what I love to eat. And they are pure natural, true green food without any fertilizer.)

The significance of the exploration in Nanyang goes far beyond that. There is also the most important thing there, rubber. In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, if you want to go further, rubber is indispensable. This thing is almost one of the cores of modern industry.

Lu Xuan naturally doesn't know how to refine rubber. But it doesn't matter, it's still the same sentence. As long as a concept is proposed, people will naturally try it over and over again until the result is achieved.

The only thing that worries him is that the Tang Dynasty's navigation technology is not mature enough. Forming such an exploratory fleet is risky.

As for Chang'an, which is located inland, the technology of ocean navigation is naturally not much better. According to his wishes, the Prince's Mansion sent a team of people to the coast to collect sailors and craftsmen to prepare for future exploration activities.

The stall is getting bigger and bigger, and Lu Xuan has begun to feel that he can't take care of it. In this era, there are too many things he wants to copy, but the productivity of this era and his personal knowledge reserve have severely limited him.

. This gave him a special idea. He needed to find some people to sort out the things in his mind and then pass them on systematically.

Knowledge is meaningful only when it is passed down. Only when ideas are liberated can innovation appear. With continuous inheritance and innovation, society will continue to progress.

To achieve this goal, Lu Xuan himself cannot do it. Even if he becomes the emperor, he cannot do it. He needs a group to complete this thing together. In other words, he needs a group of students. Not one, but

group.

Naturally, the method of inheritance from master to apprentice cannot do this kind of thing. What he needs is a school.

Lu Xuan thought further and further, but finally came back. To realize all of this, the first thing he needed was to continue the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty.

In August, a piece of news that made Lu Xuan unhappy came. King Yong’s injury was healed...

"How come such a big horse didn't trample him to death?"

Zhang Xiaojing responded with his head slightly lowered.

"I heard that a horse trampled on his thigh, and now King Yong became a lame. After recovering from the injury, his temper became more and more violent. He often punished the servants severely. In the past half month, at least four servants were beaten to death by him.

Yes. Also, it is said that he wants a woman every night now, and the next day..." At this point, Zhang Xiaojing paused slightly.

"How about the next day? Tell me!" Lu Xuan looked directly at Zhang Xiaojing. There was already a hint of chill in his tone.

"The next day, that woman will be thrown into a mass grave."

With a bang, Zhang Xiaojing's body flew out like a rag doll. He smashed a chair on the way, and his whole body flew directly to the wall. Before his body landed, Lu Xuan had already appeared in front of him, with his right hand

He directly grabbed his throat and lifted him up in the air, pressing him against the wall.

"Don't tell me you only found out about this news today." At this point, Lu Xuan felt a sense of self-blame in his heart. He always felt that those servants and women who were harmed by King Yong had their own responsibilities.

"Sir... I... have been collecting evidence... ah..." Lu Xuan exerted force with his right hand and Zhang Xiaojing felt as if his throat was about to be broken.

"Evidence? Did the evidence save those who died?"

"Sir... I just don't want you to be distracted. After all, you are now..."

Hearing this, Lu Xuan became even more angry. With a flick of his right hand, Zhang Xiaojing was thrown four or five meters away.

"Those people died because of our revenge. You thought I would be indifferent to this."

"No, on the contrary. I know that you must blame yourself for this. That's why I delayed it until today to tell all this. They died because of us, so we must be responsible to the end. Sir, I will make you a promise. Forever
