Chapter 779: Scientific power, driving development

~4 min read 717 words

After Ying Ying Zi Ye rolled up his sleeves.

His right foot stepped on the pedal outside the threshing machine.

Then a magical scene occurred.

Stepping on the pedal outside the threshing machine,

the large rotating shaft inside the threshing machine was driven by gears and began to move.

Between stepping up and down, the large rotating shaft inside rotated rapidly.

Immediately afterward, bursts of sound from breaking through the air came from inside.

Someone immediately exclaimed.

Because they truly didn't know that the iron-bearing thing inside would move.

And it moved just by stepping on the pedal outside.

They felt it was very magical.

Ying Ying Zi Ye grabbed a handful of golden yellow rice and stuffed the end with the rice grains into the threshing machine.

The iron wires embedded on the large rotating shaft inside played their role at this time.

Before long, after the rice stalks were taken out, all the grains on them had fallen off.

The threshing was so clean and neat.

The onlookers watched this scene and were immediately greatly surprised.

Is rice threshing really this simple?

Their previous methods were not like this.

Instead, it required people to beat it hard to knock the grains off the rice stalks.

Before, when they saw so much rice, although they were very excited, they were also quite worried.

Because using the previous methods for threshing, it would take an unknown amount of time.

Also, the harvesting was different, and it was far from what the Prince was doing now.

Ying Zheng became interested and also stepped forward to experiment.

Grabbing a handful of rice, he learned from Ying Ying Zi Ye's appearance, doing it just like him.

In and out, all the rice grains on the stalks were threshed.

"Haha, this thing called a threshing machine is indeed interesting!"

"Ye'er, where did this thing come from?"

Ying Zheng took over Ying Ying Zi Ye's position.

He started stepping on it himself.

Bending down, he grabbed a handful of rice and stuffed it into the threshing machine again.

"These are all small gadgets I tinkered with in my spare time, not worth mentioning."

"These are the power of science, which can drive development; simple, convenient, and fast."

Ying Ying Zi Ye stood to the side, watching Brother Zheng threshing the rice.

Watching it was quite interesting.

Ying Zheng, the Emperor through the ages, actually had a day of personally threshing rice.

If this were seen by future generations, they would probably be shocked.

Ying Zheng rolled his eyes; it was this sentence again.

He didn't know how many times he had heard this.

After Ying Zheng played with it, he clapped his hands.

Seeing the eager-to-try appearance of the civil and military officials, he couldn't help but feel a bit amused.

"Looking at your appearance, you also want to try it, right?"

Everyone present nodded.

"Then come and try it."

Ying Zheng stepped back a distance, and the officials swarmed up.

Ying Ying Zi Ye was also instructing Wang Ben, Li Xin, and others on the side.

The two of them nodded continuously.

Afterward, they began to direct the soldiers to start working.

Some people took sickles and rushed into the field.

Others lifted the threshing machines off the ox carts.

The rice field instantly became lively.

Because there were not many sickles and threshing machines,

many people could only act as porters.

Constantly running back and forth in the field.

Some people harvested the rice in the field, and immediately others took it outside.

Afterward, the threshing machines started operating with a whirring sound.

The scene of intense activity was full of vitality.

Full of the joy of harvest.

Looking down at the field from the air, yellow and green were the main colors of the field, the mature rice began to be harvested, and busy figures were scattered in the field.

Bags and bags of golden rice were packed and loaded onto transportation tools such as ox carts and horse carts.

These rice grains needed to find a flatter place to dry out the moisture.

Afterward, it would reach the final hulling stage.

Then it could be put into the pot.

However, most of it would certainly have to be taken out as seeds for planting. ===== CHAPTER 781 =====
