Forbidden City.

In the Fengxian Hall.

Liu Bowen was summoned, a little embarrassed.

Just because Zhu Yuanzhang's order was issued quite urgently.

As soon as Liu Bowen came over, he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's solemn face.

Something happened again!

Liu Bowen's heart skipped a beat. As Zhu Yuanzhang's biggest adviser in conquering the world, he knew very well what Zhu Yuanzhang's expressions meant.

Something happened, and it was something big!

Could it be the prince?

Did Su Jing do something to the prince?

Liu Bowen was guessing in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm.

"Bowen, come here and take a look at this."

Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, but didn't mention anything.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Liu Bowen looked up, came to Zhu Yuanzhang's desk, and saw a copied copy.

He bowed slightly and studied it carefully.

At first, he was just a little weird.

Because he couldn't understand much, some of the messy terms were all Liu Bowen's first to hear.

However, as he looked deeper and deeper, Liu Bowen's frown gradually relaxed.

When he understood the concept of the noun and combined it with the entire context, Liu Bowen couldn't help but nod his head.

It makes so much sense!

There was even joy on his face, just because he saw scenery he had never seen before.

but.

As Liu Bowen continued to read, sweat appeared on his forehead.

Big beads of sweat kept dripping down, and Liu Bowen didn't even have time to wipe them away, and his instinctive heart was shocked.

"How's it going, Bowen, have you finished reading?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked Liu Bowen.

Liu Bowen lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have finished reading."

While speaking, Liu Bowen raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, but the shock in his heart could not calm down.

Just because that last sentence is so amazing.

"Now that you've finished reading it, let's talk about it."

Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was calm, as if it was not an important matter.

Liu Bowen knew that this kind of Zhu Yuanzhang was the most terrifying Zhu Yuanzhang.

He can't say the wrong thing!

After briefly sorting out his thoughts, Liu Bowen replied: "I think there is some truth to it, but it is not necessarily completely correct."

Zhu Yuanzhang continued to ask: "Where is the truth? And what is wrong?"

Tick ​​tock!

Tick ​​tock!

Sweat dripped from Liu Bowen's head again, and he replied: "I believe that what I said in the past is that the economic base determines the superstructure is correct."

"The transformation from Xia, Shang and Zhou to Qin perfectly confirms this sentence."

"However, there are certain flaws in the future."

"The emergence of new productivity tools will inevitably bring about social changes, which will lead to the improvement of the economic base and then affect the superstructure."

"This seems right at first glance, but there is a big problem."

"Zhou Zhou went to Qin, and experienced the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was only after Qin wiped out the six kingdoms with strong soldiers and sharp arrows and established its dominance that private ownership of land was established."

"Now that our Ming Dynasty has strong troops and horses, it is the time to be strong. If we can master new productivity tools when they appear, the world will still belong to our Ming Dynasty!"

To say that Liu Bowen can still talk.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well what he liked to hear.

This answer cannot be said to be watertight, but at least it made Zhu Yuanzhang feel less uncomfortable.

What has happened in the past is a foregone conclusion, and from the perspective of those who come after, it must be correct.

Because there are results first and then conclusions.

The future has not happened yet, at least from the current perspective, everything is subject to change.

Unfortunately.

This future matter is only for Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen.

For Su Jing, that is all in the past.

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen did not know.

Listening to Liu Bowen's answer, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and said: "So Bowen, do you think how Ming Dynasty can master new productivity tools?"

For the sake of the Ming Dynasty for generations to come, Zhu Yuanzhang left no stone unturned.

Liu Bowen was stunned, but he reacted quickly and said immediately:

"I have few talents and little knowledge. Perhaps Your Majesty can ask Su Jing for advice."

In fact, after reading this earth-shattering text, Liu Bowen had already guessed that he was inseparable from Su Jing.

Only Su Jing has the courage to say that the Ming Dynasty will be destroyed at every turn.

Although Liu Bowen raised questions, he was only responding to Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry.

"Is Su Jing the only one?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "I have countless capable ministers, but none of them can compare with Su Jing?"

Liu Bowen remained silent and did not answer this question.

Because he knew that these were Zhu Yuanzhang's angry words.

If anyone could really compare with him, Zhu Yuanzhang would not be so angry.

...........

Lishui County.

Zhu Biao returned to his happy look.

Zhu Yuanzhang's words enlightened him, and now he just wanted to find an opportunity to ask Su Jing for advice.

"Niu Yi, continue to increase the firepower."

In the distillation room, Su Jing was carefully observing the process of alcohol distillation.

Zhu Biao is his best assistant.

"Okay, Master Su."

Niu Yi immediately accelerated the speed of pushing the blast box, a large amount of air entered the stove, and the flames immediately became fierce.

The wine continues to boil in the pot, and then steam rises.

The water vapor hits the cold iron pot lid above, undergoes a liquefaction reaction, condenses into water droplets and falls along the groove into the next pot.

Then repeat the same process until the final container is inside.

"Okay, another bottle is ready!"

Su Jing looked at the small bottle of high-strength alcohol in front of her very happily, feeling quite excited.

"Niu Yi, do you know why I put several pots on it?"

The excited Su Jing also took the initiative to ask Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao looked at the three pots in front of him, shook his head and said, "Students don't know."

Although distillation is an ancient method of making wine, the ancients only knew that it could be done, but did not understand the principle of doing so.

Zhu Biao has never studied this in his daily life.

Su Jing smiled and said: "It's actually very simple, because the temperatures required for boiling wine and water are different."

"The three pots in front of you are used to operate the stove in sequence. As the firepower gradually weakens, the amount of heat it can provide also decreases. The two pots in front are used to purify the wine."

"And the last pot is not hot enough for the water to boil, only the wine will rise."

In fact, it is a very simple knowledge point about the different boiling points of different liquids in physics.

For Su Jing, it's just common sense.

But for Zhu Biao, it was quite novel knowledge.

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "The students have been taught."

Time passed quickly, and Su Jing drank more than a dozen bottles before stopping.

At this time, Zhu Biao was already sweating profusely.

"Niu Yi, let's go, let's take you to take a bath."

Su Jing waved her hand and took Zhu Biao directly to the bathhouse.

Because Su Jing is the boss, there are only two people in the bath pool between him and Zhu Biao. This is Su Jing's exclusive private pool.

Su Jing's face was filled with enjoyment as her whole body was submerged in the pool.

Zhu Biao was a little cautious. After all, he was being honest with his teacher.

"Master Su, I would like to ask for advice."

Zhu Biao thought about it for a moment and said.

Su Jing closed her eyes and said calmly: "Let's talk, it's just a bath anyway, just be casual."

Zhu Biao paused and asked: "Master Su, before you mentioned new production tools to improve productivity, what exactly should they be?"

Su Jing replied without thinking: "Science and technology are the primary productive forces."
