Chapter 1203: The First Meeting of the Officials with the Machine

Translator: Lonelytree

The appearance of the thrashing machine made everyone dumbfounded.

“This… What the hell is this?” Someone immediately asked in confusion. Guo Bing ordered the people who carried the thrashing machine to place them at the places where the machines were to be used.

Then, he smiled and said,” My lords, is your memory that bad? The general told us to carry the thrashing machines over. Have you forgotten so soon?

The Crown Prince was stunned at first, then he immediately asked in surprise,” Lieutenant Guo, you mean that these things are the thrashing machine?”

As the Crown Prince, he had been taught from a young age that he had to understand the lives of the people and their farming situation.

However, he had never heard of a farming tool like a ” thrashing machine before. He heard that farmers used their hands to rub the grains off the ears of rice.

Guo Bing nodded.” Yes, Your Highness! This is a thrasher!”

The Third Prince seemed to be unwilling to accept the Crown Princes performance in front of the Emperor alone. He immediately asked enthusiastically,” Lieutenant Guo, why haven’t I heard of this thing before?

Guo Bing looked at the Third Prince with a faint smile and said indifferently,” Third Prince, just because there was no such thing in the past doesn’t mean that there is no such thing now!” It meant that he was really too ignorant!

The Third Prince’s face darkened, but he couldn’t get angry. He could only grit his teeth and ask,” Then how do I use this thing? Since it’s called a thrashing machine, then based on my understanding, it should be used for thrashing grains, right? In the past, I have heard that farmers could only use their hands to rub the grain.”

Guo Bing said,” Third Prince, everyone will know how to use this thing in a while! However, don’t be too surprised!”

Then, he shouted,” Little Three, let’s get to work!”

“Yes, Lieutenant Guo!” Those who received the order immediately began to install the so-called thrashing machine.

After that, the whole thrashing machine was displayed in front of everyone. It looked like a small house.

Yuwen Longyan cut the rice and handed the small sickle to the person beside him. Then, he walked to the front of the thrashing machine and stepped on the pedal. The thruster immediately buzzed. This sound gave everyone a fright.

What is this?” Some people did not react. They looked around in panic! The sounds were a little unpleasant and terrifying, so they were a little afraid. Yuwen Longyan’s actions made Guo Bing and the other subordinates who had been working on the Nanyuan Farm feel puzzled.

Guo Bing asked in a daze,” Your Majesty, how did you know to step on it like this?”

The Emperor only glanced at Guo Bing but did not answer him directly. Instead, he said,” Guo Bing, the gears are a little tight and consume a lot of strength. I need to work harder!”

He had learned this from harvesting rice in Taoyuan Village. Guo Bing was still confused about His Majesty.

After listening to His Majesty’s words, he looked at the two gears of the machine and nodded,” Your Majesty, we haven’t oiled the machine yet. Of course, it’s tight!”

Then, he took the kerosene from Little Six and poured it on the gears. After a while, Yuwen Longyan immediately felt that it was much easier to step on the pedal.

Moreover, the sound of the machine immediately became louder.

His Majesty’s familiar tone and skillful movements stunned him even more! “Does the Majesty know this machine?” Lord Li said in a flabbergasted manner.

“No. Not only did His Majesty recognize it, but he was also very familiar with it and could use it skillfully!” Lord Zhang immediately said.

“Yes, you’re right!”

While everyone was discussing, Jiang Zhennan put the small sickle back into the basket and walked up to the Emperor.

He stepped on the pedal of the thrashing machine and cooperated with the Emperor very tacitly. Seeing that everyone was in a daze, Jiang Zhennan immediately said to Guo Bing,” Lieutenant Guo, what are you daydreaming about? Send the grain over!”

Guo Bing immediately reacted, then turned around and said to the others,”

Stop daydreaming. Get to work!”

Then, he and Little Twelve each handed the harvested rice to Yuwen Longyan and Jiang Zhennan!

Yuwen Longyan and Jiang Zhennan skillfully took a bunch of rice.

Then, they skillfully stirred it with the roller coreo In just two strokes, the grain on the ear of rice was picked clean.

Everyone looked and saw that all the grain had fallen into the big bucket. “This… This is amazing!’

After Prime Minister Chen saw this, he was so excited that he praised it repeatedly. “This is much more time-saving and energy-saving than the farmers rubbing the rice with their hands after cutting it. This is really a miraculous invention!”

The other officials echoed! Unknowingly, everyone gathered around the machine and started to study it, forgetting that they were actually working.

Yuwen Longyan and Jiang Zhennan stopped after they finished a bucket of grain. Then, Yuwen Longyan immediately smiled and asked,” My dear ministers, how is this thrashing machine?”

“Good, good, this is great!” All the officials praised him.

Yuwen Longyan nodded.” Well, in that case, you have to learn how to use this thing!’

Then, Yuwen Longyan assigned tasks to the officials and descendants of the royal family!

However, many officials were inclined to step on the machine pedal because it looked fun and they did not have to bend over all the time. It was not so tiring.

Therefore, the officials who were assigned to continue harvesting the rice smiled bitterly. However, since the order had been given, they could not disobey it.

Therefore, they could only pick up their small sickles and bend down to harvest the rice. The officials who had been assigned to the thrashing machine secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Their expressions immediately became excited, and they seemed very happy.

Yuwen Longyan, who was watching from the side, sneered in his heart.

‘Hmph, you can laugh now, but let’s see how you can laugh in a moment!’

Guo Bing and the others had ambiguous smiles on their faces when they asked these officials to work the thrashing machines. They seemed to be mocking these people for overestimating themselves, but they also seemed to be gloating.

Lord Li noticed Guo Bing’s smile and felt a little scared. He asked in confusion,” Lieutenant Guo, what are you laughing at?”

Guo Bing smiled and said,” It’s nothing. I just thought of something funny. Lord Li, you should step on the thrashing machine properly! One had to know that His Majesty had ordered that no one could rest until everyone finished thrashing half a bucket of grain!’

These civil officials could barely get through twenty bundles of rice, much less half a bucket.

And they thought they got an easier job….
