Live streaming life: The ancients begged not to stop

Chapter 309

"The system will pick someone up."

"Shang Dynasty Xin."

Qi Cheng looked at the sky outside. The sun didn't rise from the west. How could the system choose someone from the Shang Dynasty? He looked at the system's introduction.

This person lived during the Xiaoyi period of the Shang Dynasty, the generation before Wu Ding. As can be seen from his name, he was not a particularly noble, and certainly not a slave.

The people outside the sky were a little surprised. This person lived so long ago, and it might be their ancestor.

"Host, you mentioned a lot of good things before, but we don't have many of the raw materials. Can you tell me something or technology that's suitable for us at this time?"

Qi Cheng was not actually very familiar with the Shang Dynasty. He just knew that their bronze technology was quite advanced at that time and they were able to produce many complex things.

So it takes some thought to come up with something they can make.

The first thing Qi Cheng thought of was the bronze cannon, but for the Shang Dynasty, they didn't need such complicated weapons at all. With their level of military strength, various sharp weapons were more suitable.

Iron smelting wasn't particularly suitable. Given their sphere of influence and manpower, building a blast furnace would likely take years. After much deliberation, Qi Cheng suddenly came up with an idea.

He saw some information showing that the wild beasts were quite powerful in the past. Even after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were still tigers and wolves in some places.

Thanks to the militia for having guns.

The situation was probably even worse during the Shang Dynasty. It is very likely that many people who lived close to the mountains were taken away by tigers or something like that.

"During the Shang Dynasty, there were probably a lot of tigers, leopards, jackals, and wolves. They probably had some impact on human life, so I'm going to see if I can find some technology to protect against wild animals."

"Tigers are ferocious beasts. You can only outwit them, not outmaneuver them."

Qi Cheng found two short videos on his tablet. One was the video of Wandashan No. 1 smashing the car's glass, and the other was the video of a tiger in Northeast China this year that bent the railing.

It’s really fierce!

"Let's start with a simple one. You can use realgar powder to prevent various snakes. Realgar is a yellow stone that is produced in large quantities in Hunan Province."

Qi Cheng thought about it and felt that the Shang Dynasty’s sphere of influence might not have reached there yet, but other provinces should also have this thing, so he put all the detailed information on the sky curtain.

"Realgar should be very effective. After all, even a multi-year-old snake can't stand it." Qi Cheng thought of Bai Suzhen, who revealed her true form after drinking realgar wine. "You should be able to find it."

Then Qi Cheng found a simple animal-driving mechanism. This thing was actually very simple, somewhat similar to a water-lifting tool, with a bamboo tube placed horizontally on a bamboo.

When the water is full, the bamboo tube tilts to one side.

This mechanism has a metal object placed on the side where it falls. When it falls, it will make a loud noise and drive away some wild animals around it.

"My personal advice is to replace the metal object every once in a while, because after a long time, the beasts will get used to the noise."

Tang Dynasty

Li Shimin's eyes lit up. He felt that the Tang Dynasty could also use this method. It was a pity that he didn't think of it. That way, Yutian's work should be much easier.

This thing should be about as difficult to make as a scarecrow.

At most, the metal basin is a little more expensive now.

But the craftsmen should be able to come up with a solution.

Without the disturbance of wild beasts, the grain yield should be better.

We will recuperate for the next few years, and once we have accumulated enough food, we will wipe out all the surrounding forces.

Qing Dynasty

Emperor Qianlong laughed heartily, thinking that the method the anchor described would definitely not work. He should just do as he did, riding a horse and drawing a bow to hunt tigers and cheetahs.

"These people in later generations seem to be not very good at fighting. If I were there, I would definitely use a knife to fight the tiger. When the emperor grandfather went hunting, I often went on horseback."

Heshen bowed his head to express that the emperor was invincible in riding and shooting.

But he was silently complaining in his heart, he knew how they caught the tiger. Besides, he was talking to the people of the Shang Dynasty, they didn't have such sharp swords and arrows.

Maybe they are all bronze things.

"Not to mention tigers, I've killed countless of the most formidable black bears in the mountains..."

When talking about hunting, Emperor Qianlong began to talk incessantly.

........

Xin of the Shang Dynasty quickly drew what was displayed on the sky curtain on the ground in front of him. In his heart, he was actually more envious of the iron fences in later generations that could actually block tigers.

If only they had it now, he would like to surround his house with this iron fence.

Qi Cheng finally found the blueprints of the animal trap, but he was not very optimistic about using bronze to make it, especially the spring inside, which had to be quite strong.

But the ancients were not fools, they should be able to find some useful parts from it.

Just when Qi Cheng felt that the time was about right, Xin took out a small piece of gold nugget and placed it in front of him, and a golden light flashed on the sky.

The gold on the ground disappeared in an instant.

"Host, this trap is indeed quite difficult to set. We will give it a try. We have already sent people to look for iron ore, so we should be able to find it soon."

"Yes, you can indeed give it a try. Iron is more suitable for making weapons than bronze."

"When we kill the prey, we will definitely give you a portion."

Qi Cheng looked carefully at the image of the system in front of him and felt that it was a little different from what he saw in the movie. Although it looked quite strong, it didn't look particularly outrageous.

……

After Xin finished talking to the anchor, he was drawing a diagram of a trap on the ground.

When he had almost finished the painting, the bigwigs of his country finally showed up. They felt that Xin's question was not a good one.

Just knowing these feelings is not very useful, not to mention that there is something that we don’t know whether we can make.

"You should ask what will happen to us later or whether there will be a major disaster."

"Do you think these things are very useful?"

"Of course." Xin nodded firmly. "If we can refine iron, our military force will be very powerful!"

"Do you think you can succeed?"

"It will definitely succeed. Tianmu has already explained the steps. How can we be sure that it won't succeed if we don't give it a try?"

……

After Qi Cheng finished interacting, he went to the window to look at the weather outside. The sun was shining brightly today and the wind was not too strong.

Suitable for a walk outside.
