At this moment.
The battle in Chang 'an had ended.
The main culprit had been captured. .
It was the tyrant of Dragon King Town.
Duke Chen's nephew.
Lv Rui.
When the Imperial Guards went there, they fought with the Imperial Guards and died under their swords.
When the court learned of this, they were shocked.
But at this moment, an even more shocking piece of news came out of the court.
Hou Junji was dead!
And he had died on the way to Chang 'an, falling into the Chan River.
Although many people doubted the accuracy of this news, the truth was right before their eyes. It had happened at the foot of Mount Zhongnan.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and the entire Chang 'an navy had only found Hou Junji's corpse three li below the Chan River Bridge.
This time.
Everyone who had come to watch was stunned.
He was really dead.
And according to the investigation, Hou Junji did not seem to have suffered any external injuries before he died …
But everyone was still hesitant.
Why would Hou Junji fall into the river here? And where did his guards go?
But the Emperor had only issued a decree, so no one could pursue the matter.
Three days later.
Chang 'an City had returned to its former prosperity, and everyone seemed to have forgotten about that incident.
Everyone's eyes were once more fixed on Mount Zhongnan.
Because the autumn planting had already been going on for half a month, but there was still no sign of the phosphate fertilizer?
However, outside the Tonghua Gate, there was an additional team of people digging and clearing a path. This made everyone even more surprised.
After asking around, they learned that they were actually building a phosphate fertilizer factory. Instantly, countless people joined the battlefield in excitement.
All they needed was two full meals.
They could work for you for an entire day.
Why?
Because all the people wanted to get this thing out as soon as possible so that they would not have to go hungry in the coming year.
When the Ministry of Works learned of this matter, Li Xiaogong immediately asked for Li Shimin's permission to allocate countless provisions and silver. Then, the battlefield at the foot of Mount Longshou, which had less than a thousand soldiers and craftsmen at the start, instantly swelled to more than five thousand. Moreover, countless people would come every day and volunteer to join in.
For the first time, White Deer College disappeared from everyone's sight.
It was rare for Zhang Feng to live a comfortable life. Every day, he would take a walk with the two girls, hunt, fish, and sometimes have a barbecue in the wild, which amused the two girls.
On the other side.
Cheng Chumo and the others were having a hard time.
The windmill had already been built once. If it didn't work, they would have to tear it down and build it again.
In the end, he had no choice but to seek help from the carpenters on the mountain. Only then was he freed.
Ma Zhou, Hao Chujun, and the others were the most relaxed.
Every day, other than studying knowledge, they would be running back and forth in the smithy. No one knew what they were tinkering with, but there were many huge bottles and jars in the place where they lived.
This scene …
It made Cheng Chumo and the others want to cry.
But there was no other way.
The matter had already reached this point.
Cheng Chumo and the others were also motivated. Other than the water wheel, almost all the water troughs in the villa area had been set up.
As soon as the water wheel was ready, they could test the water.
Once the water test was completed, this thing would become the only and first water circulation drive system in the entire Tang Dynasty.
How could Cheng Chumo and the others not be excited?
Although they also wanted to go to the battlefield with Li Chengqian, and that was the place they wanted to go the most, the importance of this water wheel was beyond doubt.
This was an important matter that would determine whether the people of the entire Tang Dynasty could use phosphate fertilizer before the New Year.
Once it was completed, then going to the battlefield …
Would be dregs.
This was a magnificent feat.
It was extremely terrifying.
"Boom — boom —!"
Two muffled sounds were heard.
In the villa area, there was a burst of cheers.
Then, Chen Chumo ran to the lake, panting. Pointing at the water wheel in the villa area, he excitedly pulled Zhang Feng and said, "Fengzi, look, the water wheel is ready!"
Zhang Feng was speechless.
It was good that it was ready, right?
Because of his actions, the fish that was about to fall into his hands was gone.
Zhang Feng was so angry that he threw the fishing rod away.
But then he looked at it.
He couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Did you invite the carpenter on the mountain?"
The carpenter on the mountain was invited by Zhang Shan from Tongzhou. He used to work in the Ministry of Works. His craftsmanship, the desks, teaching aids, and so on on the mountain were all made by him.
Cheng Chumo wiped his sweat and grinned. "You didn't say that I couldn't invite him."
Zhang Feng was speechless and gave him a thumbs-up. "Well, then there's no need to look at it. Hurry up and set up the water wheel. But remember, once the water wheel is set up, make sure that it can be used for a long time in the water."
Cheng Chumo patted his chest and said, "Don't worry about this. I've asked around. These people have built the Imperial Garden in the palace and the water wheel in the Daming Palace. There's nothing wrong with their craftsmanship."
Zhang Feng chuckled. "Well, let's see."
