Chapter 58: The Waterwheel, the Die Forging, the Rice Transplanter, and the Death of Two Men.

The body of Prince Dugu Thirteen, who had been gnawed beyond recognition by a mouse, was found by a beggar three days later, and the murder shocked the whole city. The magistrate didn't dare to conduct an autopsy. The case was reported to Liu Changping, the state assassin, overnight, and then Liu Tingshi sent a master who used the true qi of ice to come overnight and freeze Dugu Thirteen's body. Then, it took only two days for the people sent by King Yannan, who got the message from the flying falcon, to Pingyang City.

At this time, the death of Prince Yannan had already spread in Pingyang City.

At first, Gao Li was a little worried that the two women would cause them trouble that day. Later, he suddenly figured out that it was good to pretend to be stupid honestly at this time, and suddenly jumping out might not bring any benefit to himself.

However, strangely, there were actually a lot of people who saw Gao Li and them that day, why didn't anyone stand up?

As a result, the vigorous detective drama in Pingyang City has nothing to do with Gao Li for the time being.

The first waterwheel in Lizhuang was five stories high.

Gao Li couldn't help but sigh, thanks to the infinite strength of these bull demons, and they were full of enthusiasm for their work-they were all very curious about what Gao Li wanted to do.

Even though it's only a waterwheel and doesn't have a driveshaft attached, anyone can feel it, and it seems to be interesting.

"Brother, can you do this? It doesn't feel very powerful. "The iron hoof grabbed the waterwheel and didn't let it continue to turn.

Gao Li smiled and said, "Brother, you go and grab the inner circle." ”

The bull demon didn't know why, so he grabbed the inner ring, and as a result, the waterwheel turned steadily and slowly with the bull demon!

"What's going on!"

In fact, the principle of leverage is usually applied and perceived, but no one has really thought about the truth. Gao Li could only explain on the spot, and suddenly a group of cows and cows were having fun.

Gao Li planned to let the bull demons rebuild the workshop by the river, and the propeller shaft would bring the power of the waterwheel, and use a few variable speed gears to achieve high-frequency and low-frequency beating.

But what Gao Li really wanted was not these water hammers.

It's a process that will not be possible until the distant future.

Die forging.

Steel swords need to be forged, and forging them is labor-intensive and time-consuming. Not conducive to the mass production of objects, Gao Li decided to develop a new way to play - die forging.

The tool forges the metal workpiece at one time under high pressure, which has extremely high efficiency, which is the charm of die forging.

The large hammer is lifted to a certain height by a waterwheel, and then the sword embryo is forged by a die. After one rough forging and two fine forging, it can be directly polished and installed on the hilt and shipped. Theoretically, this thing can reduce man-hours to more than a tenth.

The so-called mass production goods must have the appearance of mass production goods, right? If it is all typed by hand, how to increase the price?

The biggest charm of die forging is standardization, as long as the mold is not broken, each steel sword will be exactly the same product!

With the recent large amount of silver income, Li Zhuang bought a large number of iron ingots. The number was so large that it was a little scary, and the officials of the Bing Tie Division came to check a few times and found that Gao Li was doing some inexplicable big iron lumps and had no intention of rebelling. He didn't care, and let him go. After all, it is also a weapon-making workshop designated by the soldiers, and many people have paid for the use of iron.

What's more, that is the person who was personally named by Gu Wuwu of the 'Badao', even if there is a little problem, who would dare to say it? After Gu Wuwu defeated Ye Jia, the emperor Dayue rewarded Gu Wuwu with countless gold and silver, as if he had won a battle, he was popular! Maybe even Gao Li would become popular in the future.

However, I heard that it was the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The son of the king of Yannan, known as the ghost fox, Dugu Thirteen, disappeared in the city, and before that seemed to have a conflict with Gao Li and them, the king of Yannan was furious and ordered a thorough investigation at this time, and he didn't know if it was true or not.

In the blink of an eye, it was the second day of February, the dragon raised his head, and Gao Li trimmed his short hair. I still let Yaya help cut it, not to mention the style, at least it is much more comfortable than long hair.

It was also on this day that another piece of news shocked Wulin and quickly spread to Pingyang City. Then through the mouths of Dong Mingcheng and Zhao Xiaoliu, it entered Gao Li's ears.

Gao Li was getting a haircut, and the two brothers came humming a little tune, and the brothers first talked about what they had been busy with in their respective hometowns recently. Although their hometown is not as rich as Binh Duong, it is not a small place, and the level of luxury consumption is not low. The initial role model effect has already risen, and then you can use mid-range products to expand your sales channels.

After chatting for a while, Zhao Xiaoliu whispered mysteriously: "Brother Li, do you remember Ye Jia who fought against Gu Wuwu in your village?"

"Remember, someone cut off two hands of the Shura knife. Gao Li said.

"He's dead!" Dong Mingcheng broke Zhao Xiaoliu's mystery and broke it directly.

"Dead?" Gao Li was a little surprised.

The supreme powerhouse of the East China Sea, 'Shura Knife' Ye Jia, died violently, and there are legends that the disciples around him were bribed to make a move when he was cultivating, and there are also legends that a ghost disguised himself as his disciple to make a move. At least one thing is certain, this 'disciple' waited by his side for more than ten days, and finally took advantage of Ye Jia's sudden attack when he was practicing a certain exercise, allowing Ye Jia to die of true qi retrograde and go mad. He died violently on the spot, and it is said that the death was horrific.

This shows that Noroka succeeded?

Sending Dong Mingcheng and Zhao Xiaoliu brothers away, Gao Li was in a very happy mood.

It's good to be successful!

February 2 is also known as the Spring Ploughing Festival, when the spring flowers are in full bloom and farmers have begun to prepare their fields. Of course, Gao Li was not idle, after listening to the sales report of the duo in the morning, he immediately devoted himself to the hot mechanical debugging in the afternoon.

What Gao Li is preparing now is a rice transplanter.

There are no technical difficulties in the rice transplanter itself, and many small agricultural machinery companies have launched similar equipment, and even a skilled carpenter can make one. Growing up in the countryside, Gao Li played with the front wheel as the power source, accompanied by the main wheel in the rice field, and at the same time, the gear-driven planting arm moved up and down to insert the seedlings into the soil. However, the ratio between the gears needs to be carefully calculated, which occupies a lot of Gao Li's time. The muddy rice field is different from the solid road surface, in order to get first-hand information, Gao Li had to go to the field to test it himself, and a group of bull demons watched Chen Yuan as the owner of the village with his feet sticky to the mud, and they rushed into the muddy water one by one.

Of course, in essence, they still find this rice transplanter too fun. Especially watching the rows of planting arms insert the simulated seedlings into the paddy field one by one, without even bending down by themselves, the heads are full of a sense of achievement, and the bull demons are smiling.

According to Gao Li's calculations, a bull demon should be able to drive at least six to eight planting arms to work stably and at the same time, and the speed is extremely fast, and it can complete the transplanting work of one acre of land in about half an hour. With the experience of ready-made predecessors, Gaoli's rice transplanting machine is quite smooth from design to successful trial production.

At present, Gao Li still plans to use this thing himself, but in the future, Gao Li plans to promote this rice transplanter, which can be sold and rented, and the people in the surrounding Zhuangzi will definitely be able to use it. It's a pity that there is no stable power source in this world, otherwise you can get some self-propelled equipment.

Gao Li was in a good mood, except for being covered in mud.

The bull demons dared to jump into the river to wash the dirt, but Gao Li didn't dare. His cultivation is not high, he is unlucky to catch a cold, there is no fast-acting medicine in this world, and it will be troublesome to toss it into pneumonia.

At night, water was boiling in the bathtub, and Gao Li lay in it and hummed comfortably. I have a bright future in my head.

Seeing that the spring has bloomed, the high-end brand clothing produced by Lizhuang should also be launched, and then some affordable sub-brands. Of course, even affordable brands don't come cheap. Taking advantage of the example of luxury, the Li Zhuangzi brand will quickly occupy the market.

It seems that it is time to open a flagship store.
