When I arrived at the uncle's house, the uncle was not at home and was working in the workshop. The couple just stood up slightly, said a few words to the eldest aunt, and hurriedly went to the water workshop.

Both workshops are running, and those who seem to be able to do things are busy, and there is no one at the door who is idle. The two of them heard the roar of the rumbling machinery inside, but they did not immediately go in, but first went to the dam specially made for the construction of a hydroelectric workshop.

The dam that has been completely successful allows Erya and Xiaohu to see clearly. The dam is connected to both sides of the river in a positive triangle, and when the two waists of the triangle are lowered by the railings, the river water is divided into two streams from the triangular tip of the dam and flows to the power of the hydraulic workshops on both sides.

There are two iron cast water fan blades, one large and one small, and when the water fan blades are pushed up by the flowing water, the various machinery connected to its shaft will also run. The small fan impeller is at the top, and the large fan impeller is at the bottom, so that when the water flows through the small fan blade, it falls to the bottom and becomes a vertical fall, so that the water potential energy is greatly enhanced.

After reading Master Cha's design, Er Ya thought about it, and it can be said that it is the most scientific and reasonable plan that Er Ya can imagine. Originally, the water potential of the river was not large, but the potential energy of the water flow made by this design can reach a potential energy of three to four meters vertically, which is enough for a workshop like Erya's family, which is not too small.

"Admire it?" Erya smiled and asked Xiaohu, who was looking very seriously, and Xiaohu nodded and replied, "I admire it so much!" How did Master Cha's brain grow? Can you think of such a solution? At that time, I thought that the water-powered workshop you were going to do might be a lot of grinding wheat and rice. I didn't expect the end result of what he did to be like this. Totally beyond what I could have imagined. ”

Erya pulled Xiaohu and said: "Never underestimate the wisdom of people, there is only what you can't think of, and there is nothing that humans can't do." Walk. Let's take a look at the workshop on the other side first, and then come back to see the workshop here. ”

The workshops on both sides were completely started by Master Cha, after all, he had been doing this with his master since he was young. For others, it may be difficult to get into the sky, but for them it is like a daily routine. Even the strange planing knives, circular saws, and fixed carving knives that Er Ya wanted, he only listened to them. You'll know what's going on. When I heard that the master I was looking for had not been able to really get these special tools, I ran to say a few words to the master, and the master immediately opened up. It was done in a few days.

When Erya left, the hydraulic workshop had not yet been completely completed, because he knew that Master Cha was better able to preside over this matter than his own experts, so he dared to throw it to Master Cha. Run out and sell the wagon yourself. Now the workshops on both sides are operating. It seems that this trust adventure has been successful.

The two of them entered the workshop, and there were seven or eight people walking around busily, and four people were working seriously on the machine in front of them. The two of them came out of the exit end of the machine and saw their respective work products. The two innermost machines are rice milling machines that specialize in processing rice, which is different from the way of scooping rice, and the husking method uses vibration and rolling. Before rolling, the vibration is to remove slag and gravel. After rolling, it vibrates to separate the rice from the husk. Er Ya grabbed a handful of rice and took a look, it's good! Even the oily skin of the rice is still there. This rice should be the most nutritious.

The person who came to process rice didn't know Er Ya and Xiaohu, and when he saw Er Ya actually entering the workshop, he didn't know how to grab his own rice, and scolded: "What are you doing? Who let you in! Get out of here, no one is allowed here. ”

Feng Dazhuang, who was stacking the bag, heard the scolding, so he turned his head to look, and when he saw that it was the two of the owner, he hurriedly ran over: "The owner, the lady of the owner, you are back!" Don't blame you! Master Cha said that it was dangerous here, and no one was allowed to come and touch it. This fellow does not know you, and thinks you are human. Don't be angry! ”

Erya was thinking about introducing herself and Xiaohu, and Da Zhuang solved it. She smiled and nodded without speaking, and Xiaohu replied with a smile: "Don't be angry!" Little brother did the right thing! How did you get here? ”

"The autumn harvest is over, it's still early to order rape, and there is nothing to do during this time, so I'll come over to help."

As they spoke, Er Ya took a closer look at the driving principle of the hydraulic machine. At the beginning, Erya saw a few large iron discs, and thought they were made of occlusal gears, but now they know that it was just a round wheel. None of the occlusal gears are used to drive here, all of them are driven by belts. This belt is not a rubber belt, but made of several layers of cowhide, which is strong and not easy to deform.

The large fan blades that play a power role in the water do not have to turn off the water flow to stop moving. Instead, there is a handle on top of it, and whenever power is not needed, the handle is pulled back, and the fan blades in the water will leave the water, and the fan blades will no longer be able to drive the wheel. In this way, it will be in place in a very timely manner when dealing with urgent matters.

The power of this single fan blade is actually carried by two wheels (that is, two machines), and there are five machines in this large workshop. Two are specially used for processing rice, one is for wheat processing, one is dedicated to oil pressing, and one is for grinding soy milk. When you use it, you can use it with the belt, and when you don't use it, take off the belt and the machine can be empty.

It seems that this workshop here is a water mill in the true sense of the word!

Erya and Xiaohu looked around here and there, and Da Zhuang accompanied and explained: "The owner, the lady of the owner!" Don't look at the fact that this machine doesn't spin very fast, but this machine can shed more than 30 stones a day, which is more than ten times faster than the work of oxen and donkeys! ”

"Are all your husks now our own grain? Are my soybeans oiled? Erya saw that there was no one from the township here to process, so she blurted out and asked.

This matter is not in Da Zhuang's charge, but he knows a little: "Now the processing is our own grain, if other people want to process, we have to say hello in advance." We will arrange time for unified processing, otherwise it will hurt the machine when it stops together. The rice at home had to be husked and ready, as if someone had already come to fetch the rice. When the soybean oil was first tested, it was all pressed. I also heard from the butler that all the oil had already been bought and was waiting for them to come and get it. ”

After saying this, Er Ya remembered that the chief butler had mentioned this matter in the letter he had passed to them. This oil and rice were all asked for by General Qin, and someone from there would come to pull rice and oil back a year ago.

Xiaohu saw that Da Zhuang had been in contact with them all the time when they came here, so he casually asked, "Isn't there anyone who has arranged for management in this workshop?" ”

"Not yet, at present, Master Cha is in charge of the workshops on both sides. Master Cha is busy over there at this moment, and he may come over in a while. Da Zhuang hurriedly answered the owner's question.

Erya was very moved and asked, "What?" After getting it done here, Master Cha hasn't left? Have you been helping my family? ”

Da Zhuang replied with a smile: "Yes! Master Cha said, if you are willing to keep the three of them and apprentices, they will be here to help you work in the future! ”

Erya and Xiaohu both widened their eyes in surprise, and almost said the same thing in unison: "Great! Of course willing to stay! ”

Xiaohu smiled again and said to his daughter-in-law: "Let's go, let's go over there to see Master Cha!" ”

"Hey!" The two happily walked hand in hand across the dam with guardrails on both sides.

Of course they are beautiful in their hearts! There are a lot of unique skills in the hands of Master Cha, and they are all talents urgently needed by the Erya family. One is that with good quality cement, Er Ya wants to build a three-story building for the children to live in when they get married in the future. If it were to follow the current situation of one person and one courtyard, it would really not be possible to carve out so many open spaces. It is given according to the standard of one person and one set of two bedrooms, which can be given based on the current economic situation of Erya. If you build a three-story building, on the one hand, the current technology of Dahong and Xiangzi is absolutely not good, and on the other hand, the anti-drip material of the kitchen and bathroom is only available to Master Cha. If Master Cha is willing to preside over this matter, it will be 100% done.

Another thing is that the water tower that Erya wants, Master Cha has top-secret materials that are not leaky, and it is also essential to build a water tower. Both of these are none other than Master Cha!

Er Ya naturally wanted to stay with the master, but he didn't dare to mention it, mainly because other people's abilities were too big, and he was afraid that if he mentioned it, he would insult others, but he would offend people who couldn't afford to offend.

Just now Da Zhuang said this, the two of them were very excited at first, but then they calmed down again, "Daughter-in-law! Master Cha is such a capable person, how could he want to stay, don't joke with them, they take it seriously, right? ”

"Hey! I was too excited just now, and I don't think it's possible now! If you don't see him in person, ask him what's going on! Maybe people think that we have beautiful mountains and rivers here, and the scenery is very beautiful, so they like these? ”

Xiaohu squeezed his daughter-in-law's hand amusedly, but did not answer.

The two entered the carpentry workshop, and the uncle, the second uncle, and Master Cha were discussing something around a machine, and they also walked over and stretched out their heads to join in the fun.

The three of them were discussing fiercely, and no one noticed that Xiaohu and his wife stretched out their heads to join them.

"You see, although this carving knife is fixed, this mold and chess piece can be moved. Fix the chess piece and this mold, and then push the mold and the chess piece, so that the rotating carving knife walks along the gap of the mold, you see, this word is not carved out like this! What a simple thing, how can you not figure it out after studying it for so long! Your niece and daughter-in-law are really talented! You can think of such an ingenious method, don't look at what I'm doing so lightly, but if I really want to come up with such a way out of thin air, but I don't have that brain! ”

The second uncle was more flexible and bold than the eldest uncle, and he once again took the chess pieces set by the mold and began to operate on a carving knife next to him. may be because he is timid or unfamiliar, but he is not as fluent and smooth as Master Cha. But if he can get started, everything makes perfect, and I believe that if he practices again, he can carve a lot of chess pieces quickly and with high quality. (To be continued......)
