The Ma family's selection of civil and military scholars was the first of its kind in this era, so Cao Cao issued an order to seek talents at the same time, recruited talents on a large scale, built schools, and honored scribes, fearing to follow in the footsteps of the Ma family.
However, as the Ma family, which is far ahead of the trend of this era, even in the same matter, it is still more than superficial.
In this imperial examination, in addition to civil and military examinations, very remarkable results were also achieved in this examination based on materials and materials in miscellaneous subjects.
Driven by the Ma family's commercial carriage, many innovative handicraft industries have obtained rich returns that they never dreamed of in this round of miscellaneous studies.
For example, Pu Yuan, who smelted iron and forged steel at the Majia Arsenal, made technical improvements based on the standardized assembly line operation proposed by Ma Chao.
Ma Chao immediately promoted Pu Yuan to the position of General Craftsman.
This move completely broke the custom in the late Han Dynasty that handicraftsmen were not allowed to serve as officials.
And Zheng Hun, a guy who loves to sneak into the camp, came up with the method of signing and sealing the weapons, so that every Bailiansu iron weapon can be documented.
Regarding Zheng Hun's behavior, which risked offending the entire industry but only benefited the Ma Jiajun, Ma Chaozhou was not stingy with rewards and gave Zheng Hun the power to supervise the quality of the weapons used by the Ma Jiajun.
There is also the somewhat crazy Zhou Maitian.
In addition to his water conservancy facilities, this guy has turned the Guanzhong Plain into thousands of miles of fertile land.
It also solved the problem of excessive manpower consumption in iron smelting and invented a blower mechanical water drainage.
The emergence of water drains immediately made the bellows invented by Ma Chao useless, and all the chickens in Chang'an were grateful to Zhou Maitian.
They no longer have to worry about being stripped of their feathers by the Ma family craftsmen and then boiled into chicken soup.
This improvement reduced the price of eggs on Chang'an Avenue by three cents.
It is no exaggeration to describe it as a big success.
The water drain still continues Zhou Maitian's old business, that is, using water as power, through rolling machinery, the leather airbags are continuously opened and closed, and the air is sent into the iron smelting furnace.
This kind of machinery uses less force but is more effective, and is known as People in Chang'an call it "wheat field water drainage".
The invention of the hydraulic blast furnace is another major advancement in the history of Majia's smelting technology, and the efficiency of smelting and forging has been increased to a new level.
However, on top of such good fortune, there was another thing that gave Ma Chao a slight headache.
The protagonist of the incident is none other than Huang Chengyan's daughter, Huang Yueying.
Huang Chengyan is Cai Yan's brother-in-law, and his living standard is very good after coming to Chang'an.
Although Huang Yueying is close to Cai Yan, unlike Cai Yan, a liberal arts student, she seems to be more interested in the technological creation of the Ma family's arsenal.
After being unable to access the secrets inside and hitting the wall many times, she somehow got into the Ma family's textile factory and became very interested in the spinning industry of military women.
Cai Yan followed the Ma family's idea of education without distinction, and originally didn't care much about Huang Yueying's lack of love for books and love for female celebrities.
Unexpectedly, one day suddenly, the fifteen-year-old Huang Yueying invited Cai Yan into the house, saying that she wanted to show Cai Yan something interesting.
After Cai Yan entered, he discovered that Huang Yueying had actually improved the spinning machine of the Ma family and created a brand new spinning machine.
This machine is suitable for spinning cotton, wool, and hemp fibers, and has greatly improved the efficiency of spinning.
Labor efficiency.
Cai Yan, who had a keen mind, immediately saw the value of this improved spinning machine.
After operating it himself, he immediately went back and informed Ma Chao.
When Ma Chao came to Huang Mansion and saw the spinning machine, he immediately said: "Isn't this the three-spindle spinning wheel invented by Huang Daopo in the late Southern Song Dynasty?"
However, after Ma Chao called Huang Yueying for questioning, he realized that this was somewhat different from the three-spindle spinning wheel in the late Southern Song Dynasty.
Although the spinning wheel invented by Huang Yueying can also use three types of gauze at the same time, it still needs to be operated by hand.
However, the three-spindle spinning machine of Huang Daopo in the Southern Song Dynasty was powered by pedals, completely freeing the hands, and its labor efficiency was more than double that of this spinning machine.
But even so, Huang Yueying's invention can be said to have completely changed the style of Majia's textile industry.
The ecstatic Ma Chao first smiled brighter than flowers, but then he couldn't help but feel a touch of sadness.
Because, he didn't know how he should reward Huang Yueying.
In this era, a tigress camp had to be protected by a fierce man like Lu Bu.
Once he let Huang Yueying become an official, there would probably be a big earthquake in the entire era.
However, this is an opportunity.
Ma Chao, who lived in a world where men and women were equal in his previous life, naturally knew what terrifying power women had.
If he gave up half of the power in this world, then describing his IQ as a pig would be an insult to a pig.
"Yue Ying."
Looking at A Chou, who is sweet and cute, with cute and fashionable yellow hair, Ma Chao was surprised and embarrassed: "How should I reward you?"

"Uncle, you want to make me an official."
Huang Yueying waved her little hand, as if she was not interested at all: "I can't do that, I still like to tinker with some clever tricks that my father said, but my father always scolded me for not doing my job properly. " "If he dares to talk nonsense like that again in the future, tell me and I will ask Pang Tong to deal with him."
Ma Chao blurted out these words, and Huang Chengyan Nuonuo, who came after hearing the news, was so frightened that he stepped back: He had already heard from Cai Yong.
He heard how Ma Chao abused his father-in-law, not to mention the old guy who was kidnapped by Ma Chao and brought to Chang'an as a hostage.
Moreover, he specifically asked Pang Tong, who had long been disdainful of him and full of scheming tricks, to Huang Yueying chuckled.
Ma Chao could see that Huang Yueying really liked to invent things.
She even suggested to Ma Chao that she should invent a wooden horse that could walk on its own.
Ma Chao agreed with her idea, but he couldn't help but think that she and Kong Ming would not have invented the wooden ox and the flowing horse together.
However, would the legendary wooden ox and the flowing horse be so magical?
How could there be a device that provides its own power in this era?
A wheeled cart.
No matter what, Ma Chao will not let go of inventive and creative talents like Huang Yueying.
At that moment, my mind was confused about Huang Daopo's set of cutting, elastic, spinning and weaving tools, such as stirrers, vertebra bows, flying shuttles, etc., as well as weaving techniques such as mismatched yarns, color matching, heddles, and ruffles.
Talked out.
Anyway, he didn't know much about these, but he believed that with this level of guidance, Huang Yueying would soon be able to continuously invent improved machinery.
On the way back, Ma Chao was a little unhappy.
Seeing this, Cai Yan boldly asked: "My husband wants his daughter to join the court as an official."
"That's what I meant, but you also know."
Ma Chao shook his head and said a little lonely: "This matter is difficult to achieve."
"Husband, you learned the art of flexibility from Master Jia, why are you confused again now?"
Cai Yan pursed his lips and chuckled.
Seeing Ma Chao's looking eyes, he couldn't help but continue: "You can pierce stone only at the bottom of the water.
We didn't use the materials for the imperial examination back then."
There are many difficulties, and the whole house is opposed to the husband, but the power is still in his hands, he can wield it as he wishes, and he can advance and retreat freely."
Ma Chao still shook his head, and was about to show that the two things were different in nature, but Cai Yan waved his hand to stop him, and said: "Although women who enter the court and serve as officials are enemies of the world, everything can only be improved by change.
Today, there are heroes who have improved spinning."
Machine, say no tomorrow There will surely be a female poet who becomes famous all over the world.
All her husband needs to do now is to praise the heroes step by step and impress the world.
In less than ten years, when there are already many outstanding women, he still needs to pay attention to them. "?"
Ma Chao's eyes lit up and he suddenly became enlightened.
Yes, women are not ferocious beasts, but they can also be said to be the softest water.
When countless water droplets gather into a big river, it is the day when the water is ready.
At that time, even if you don't bother to guide yourself, the trend will start to change.
By then, all he needs to do is borrow some money to get off the donkey, so why should he be eager for quick success at this moment?
"Yan'er, if you become an official in the dynasty, you will probably also be a talented prime minister."
Ma Chao laughed, with indescribable happiness and pride in his eyes: Isn't it possible to combine a female general, a female strategist, a female spy, and a strong woman?
All kinds of female elites are gathered in the backyard.
Isn’t the man hugging the bed the man in a woman’s heart, the macho man among macho men?
At this moment, Cai Yan looked at the familiar evil smile on the corner of Ma Chao's mouth, and his cheeks couldn't help but be filled with red clouds, which immediately complemented the afterglow in the sky and was extremely beautiful.
Ma Chao laughed again, but then he became a little worried: after a few years, it may be very possible and necessary for him to take more Liuwei Dihuang Pills developed by Hua Tuo:
