Chapter 268: Founding the Academy of Innovations
To encourage creativity, Lin Yuer establishes the Academy of Innovations, a place where inventors and artisans can gather, collaborate, and experiment. She invites people with ideas for new devices, tools, and methods, fostering a culture of innovation. The academy becomes a hub for inventors, attracting talented individuals from across the empire and beyond.
The inventions that emerge from the academy—such as water wheels, improved farming tools, and even early forms of windmills—have a profound impact on the empire. The academy helps advance agriculture, construction, and other industries, and Lin Yuer's empire becomes known for its ingenuity and progress.
