So when will Xue Jian be able to produce cheap paper? Although paper exists now, it is expensive and ordinary people cannot afford it.
She discovered this when she was working on "Dream of the Red Chamber". At that time, she had a preliminary idea, but due to lack of manpower, she could only put it aside temporarily.
Now that Black Earth School people are pouring in, many of her plans can be prepared.
As for Jiao Ping, they chose Curved Shaft Plow.
They had been researching a more convenient agricultural tool before, and after seeing the drawings of Jiang Nuan, they chose it without hesitation.
Now is the Chinese New Year. After the New Year and the beginning of spring, it is the busy farming season.
They have to work overtime to get Curved Shaft Plow out before farming, so that they can become famous Great Xia in one fell swoop!
There are other Black Earth School people, please come quickly!
Just after Jiang Nuan cleared his mind, the palace banquet gradually came to an end.
The unscathed minister quietly breathed a sigh of relief and spent another day safely.
After the palace banquet, Jiang Nuan came to Xiao Xiao and held her hand.
Jiang Yunsheng and Jiang Chengze also came over.
"Imperial Father Empress Mother, come on, I'll show you a good thing."
Jiang Nuan thought of the surprise she had prepared for today and said to them in a mysterious manner.
[Hey hey hey, although those Alchemistss haven't come up with the powerful enough Gunpowder yet, they have come up with a less powerful one, improved it, and it became Fireworks. How can there be no Fireworks on New Year's Eve?]
The surprise she had prepared in advance had already spread through her heart.
Gunpowder? Fireworks?
What do these two have in common?
The former Jiang Yunsheng knows that it is the weapon of the country that Jiang Nuan originally said. The latter sounds like a gadget.
So it was difficult for him to connect the two.
Soon, a few people walked into the imperial garden and saw several large boxes in an empty space.
"Brother Imperial Father, Empress Mother, Crown Prince, please watch carefully!"
As Jiang Nuan's words fell, Qiuyue took a torch and lit the fuse.
After the fuse burned out, something in the box shot straight into the sky, reached an altitude of more than 20 meters, and exploded instantly.
I saw colorful sparks running around with their long tails, and then disappeared.
Then, the next Fireworks rushed into the sky.
After hearing the sound, everyone in the Imperial Palace came out and looked up, and were amazed by the fleeting but dazzling beauty of Fireworks.
Jiang Nuan stood under Fireworks, looking at her relatives and smiling sweetly.
"How about it? Isn't this pretty?"
After Fireworks finished, Jiang Nuan immediately came to their side and said.
"Yes, Nuannuan is really amazing."
Jiang Chengze gave Jiang Nuan a thumbs up.
Jiang Yunsheng nodded in agreement.
Xiao Xiao kissed her cheek and said, "Nuan Nuan is the best."
"No, I have a surprise for you!"
Tonight is New Year's Eve, and there is a tradition of staying up late at Great Xia, so Jiang Nuan has prepared novel toys to spend this New Year's Eve.
Jiang Nuan took out her lucky money, spread it out on the table, and said to them:
"I'm going to kill everyone tonight!"
[Hey, they have never played this Playing Cards and Mahjong. Aren't I crushing them in minutes? I want to add bricks and tiles to my little treasury tonight!]
Jiang Nuan is very confident. She is an experienced person after all. Playing with a few novices, she has the advantage!
However, she obviously overestimated her brain and underestimated the brains of Jiang Yunsheng and the three of them.
Jiang Yunsheng is the emperor of Great Xia, and his brain is naturally very good. Jiang Chengze, as the prince, is not much different. And Xiao Xiao, although she looks gentle now, she was the commander of the army before, and she could make enemies spin around.
In the first game, the three of them were not familiar with the rules, but Jiang Nuan really won the game.
But then, the situation took a turn for the worse. Jiang Nuan watched helplessly as the New Year's money in front of her became less and less.
His expression was visibly aggrieved.
[Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu>
Jiang Nuan thought so.
But Jiang Nuan doesn't know that even if you don't play with them, the outcome will be the same if you play with others.
After all, Jiang Nuan was thinking in his mind while playing.
[I still have a pair of tens in my hand, but don't throw out one bigger than ten!]
[Hey, the cards this time are really good, there are a pair of kings, three 2s, and...]
It's probably hard to lose with this kind of direct play.
[No, I must have opened it the wrong way!]
Jiang Nuan Some people don't believe in evil.
"Next, let's change the game and play Mahjong."
This time she wants to avenge her shame!
Seeing Jiang Nuan's fighting spirit, the three of them looked at each other and thought they could give her some slack and make her happy.
So under the deliberate intrusion of a few people, Jiang Nuan had a great time.
"Empress Mother, it's a bit boring in the palace, I'll leave these to you to relieve your boredom."
Jiang Nuan left both Playing Cards and Mahjong to Xiao Xiao.
These were originally prepared by her for Xiao Xiao, but the carving of Mahjong was too troublesome, and there is no template now, so she only made them now with a little extra woodworking.
"There are other gadgets, but they are still being made. When they are ready, I will send them to Empress Mother to relieve his boredom."
Jiang Nuan continued.
Xiao Xiao nodded excitedly.
"Nuan Nuan, do you only remember you Empress Mother? There is also Imperial Father!"
Jiang Yunsheng said with some amusement.
"Of course there is Imperial Father, but it's not ready yet. It will take some time."
Jiang Nuan said to Jiang Yunsheng.
As soon as he finished speaking, he met Jiang Chengze's accusing eyes, as if asking why he wasn't there.
"Brother Chengze also has it, but it will be later."
She said immediately.
After watching the New Year's Eve, Jiang Nuan went back to rest.
She gave herself a holiday and had a good day's rest in the palace.
Then it's time to prepare for the prayers.
Every year on the third day of the first lunar month, the emperor would lead some people from the harem to the temple to pray for blessings.
In previous years, this kind of event did not involve people as transparent as Jiang Nuan, so she didn't react at first. She only knew she was going when Imperial Father sent someone to notify her.
"Which temple are we going to?"
Jiang Nuan asked casually.
In Capital City, there are three famous temples, and she doesn't know which one she wants to go to.
"Go back to Princess, we are going to Stillness Temple."
The palace maid replied.
[Stillness Temple? Isn't this the temple where my aunt is?]
[Yes, and now your uncle is also in Stillness Temple! Host, let's go and eat!]
Guagua said excitedly to Jiang Nuan.
After hearing that there was a melon to eat, Jiang Nuan couldn't help but speed up his movements.
[Let's go, let's go eat melon!]
