Li Longji and the other two looked at the drawing and didn't know what to say.
Empress Wang casually said something and Brother Yi gave her the method. Sure enough, there was an answer to every question.
"Spinning isn't easy, right?" Li Chengqi tried to find something he could show off.
"Make one first. It'll take some effort. I'll measure and calculate.
Then turn the mold over and insert the wooden feather into the mold. There will be traces. Carve according to the traces.
This needs to be calculated. Otherwise, it won't be stable enough. I'll do the first one. "
Li Yi was ready to calculate the arc of the spiral, draw it, carve, and turn the sand.
He turned out a metal shell and inserted the wooden feather into it. He could paint the protruding parts of the shell with ink.
If it wasn't convenient to insert the feather, he could divide the shell into two and put it against the wooden feather to leave traces.
The wooden feather was then taken out and manually carved according to the lines.
It was difficult. Making an arrow, even a feather, was difficult. The requirements were very high. It wasn't as simple as just taking a feather.
Li Longji looked at the drawing and listened to Li Yi's explanation. He couldn't help but have goosebumps.
Just as Li Chengqi said, the front part of the arrow would be left in the body.
He could only cut a hole, find the tail, clamp it with pliers, and pull it out.
Li Longji looked at his Brother Yi again.
What kind of person was he?
When someone offended him and fell ill, he knelt on the ground to save them. How magnanimous was he?
Yet, when it came to war, he took things out. There were even such deceptive arrows.
Li Yi continued, "The front part of the arrow doesn't need to be polished so well. Put some water on the back of the arrowhead and let it rust.
If the wound is deep and rusty, it's easy to get tetanus. Currently, only I can treat tetanus. There's still a price to pay.
I know the production process of tetanus vaccine, but I … need more equipment. I can't do it now. "
Li Yi was helpless. If he couldn't do it, then he couldn't do it.
Then he said, "But I will provide medical alcohol to the frontline soldiers. Don't drink it, although it can be drunk.
If you encounter the same wound, endure the pain and wash it repeatedly … Bring soap and wash the wound first. This is better than alcohol. It won't hurt as much.
After repeatedly washing with soap and water, and then washing with alcohol, it can save a person's life to a large extent. "
"Then the soap can't be sold outside, and the soap can't be sold either. I know that soap is made from soap, right, uncle?"
When Empress Wang heard that the soap could save lives, she didn't want the enemy to use it.
"Okay, we won't export it. Yes, we won't sell it to outsiders." Li Yi also agreed.
The newspaper said that soap could protect the wound to a certain extent.
At the same time, if you eat something poisonous, you can drink it with soap water and spit it out, but remember not to choke yourself.
In fact, it was still alcohol. Soap could only solve part of the problem.
Most importantly, soap was not sold in large quantities, and oil was needed.
If you don't use oil, then use rosin, which is pine tree oil.
"Have you guys blown bubbles before? Use soapy water and a little glycerin to make bubbles. "
When Li Yi was thinking about making soap, he did not know why he thought of bubbles. It was fun.
When making soap, glycerin would be separated. Adding glycerin to soap water would make the bubbles more stable.
Because it was alkaline, if it was acidic, there would be no bubbles.
Just like shampoo, it was better to use acidic shampoo to wash your hair every day. Alkaline shampoo was more irritating than acidic shampoo and had more bubbles.
The three of them shook their heads blankly.
"Tomorrow night, I will make it for the children to play with. It will be interesting." Li Yi decided to add a new toy for the children in Zhuangzi.
As soon as he spoke, the three of them were separated from the atmosphere of war.
Li Chengqi drank a mouthful of wine and thought of Yao Chong.
"Brother Yi, is there a way to make the mats and curtains faster?"
He casually asked. Yao Chong's words had reached his ears.
"Weaving. Enlarge the loom. Weave the bamboo silk and straw on it. Remember to wear gloves to avoid scratching the bamboo."
Li Yi didn't even need to think before giving the answer. How simple was that?
Li Chengqi wanted to laugh. Was this the problem that Prime Minister Yao came up with to make things difficult for Brother Yi?
"I plan to wait for the migrant workers' houses to be built. After they move in, I will increase the labor-intensive industries.
This is also one of them. Mass production will reduce the cost and the price will be low.
In this way, other people will find it more cost-effective to buy it. They will buy it and save time to use it in other areas. "
Li Yi had already thought about it. He wanted to transform technology into productivity and increase the number of jobs, especially for those who did not have land.
"Uncle, when will we pay the taxes?" Empress Wang thought of the financial income of her family in the Tang dynasty.
"Yes, after paying the taxes, they will not be a hidden household anymore. They will be registered again.
In fact, they are willing to be registered again. Otherwise, their children will not be able to take the imperial examinations.
When there is no hope in life, they do not care. They will live one day at a time.
When they find out that they can live a good life and their children can learn knowledge, their thoughts will change. "
Li Yi talked about the household registration issue. In the past, he did not pay the rent for those people.
In the future, when everyone has a stable job, they will still pay the rent.
Then, they will enter Chang 'an. No matter how many people there are, they will go to the other side of the river to build houses. It will not take up much land. The handicraft industry cluster.
The things they make are more cost-effective than the things the people make themselves. The people buy them and use them. They save time to farm and raise silkworms.
This is the division of industries. They will even help the people who farm harvest and threshing for a fee.
The finer the division of industries, the better the social and economic development. Everyone will concentrate on their own things.
Li Yi told these ideas to the three of them. The three of them did not care about the taste of the food.
Li Longji even wanted to cry. He wanted to cry.
He was so lucky to have a Brother Yi. He directly gave the direction of the development of the Tang dynasty.
Everything was so stable. He was not in a hurry. He was always pushing forward.
When the internal stability was stable, he also provided external policies and strategies and weapons replacement.
His family's ancestral grave was buried in the right place. He must have done a lot of good things in his previous life.
His Brother Yi could fight political battles, increase the production of farmland, make a lot of money by doing business, and do research for fortifications.
He could train soldiers and provide weapons and good military rations such as dried meat floss and compressed biscuits for the soldiers.
He could also talk about poetry with you, write lyrics and music, and enlighten and educate the people.
He was also a good cook. If you were sick, he would treat you.
That was close. Elder Brother was not bad. He helped me find it.
If this was in Tubo, the Turks, or even the Khitans, the result would be different.
The Khitans were weak, but with Brother Yi, they were not weak.
Not to mention other things, just gunpowder and hot air balloons, he alone could fight against a million soldiers.
Of course, a million soldiers could not catch him. He had something that could fly, so he could just run away.
Li Longji was glad. He no longer cared about Li Yi taking the imperial examinations and becoming the Prime Minister.
Being the Prime Minister was not just about a lot of things. He was busy.
Brother Yi was living a good life now. Why did he have to deal with trivial matters?
It's just a small matter, what if I tire Brother Yi out?
Li Longji now felt that what Yao Chong and the others did was not a big deal.
He wondered how the three Prime Ministers would feel if they knew.
