Great Ming: Old Zhu, Take a Good Look, This Is Science

In the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, foreign envoys bring glass to the capital. The wealthy and cultured become obsessed with it, offering extravagant sums to get their hands on it.

Seeing so much wealth flow beyond the borders, Emperor Hongwu grows uneasy!

Just then... a young man scoffs loudly: "You call yourselves refined and noble, yet you treat trash like treasure. I can make as much of this stuff as you want."

The capital erupts in an uproar, and Emperor Hongwu is stunned. Before long, one astonishing sight follows another.

"A riverbank that's been collapsing for a century? I'll fix it with one move!"

"Even frozen wasteland can yield a thousand jin per mu!"

"A single sheet of paper can be worth more than mountains of gold and silver!"

"Move mountains, fill seas, make a thousand miles feel like a stone's throw, pluck stars and seize the moon. There's nothing I can't do!"

The nations tremble with terror, convinced that an immortal has descended!

Until one day, an old man humbly asks him for guidance.

Zheng Huai Ying smiles. "Watch closely, Old Zhu. This is science!"
