Chapter 95: Tech Tree, Him! (Ask for recommendation votes)
"Day Farming...... Ten acres?! ”
"One cow and one person, ten acres a day?"
Wang Jian's eyes were full of amazement.
This is also Bai Ji, he doesn't believe it at all if he changes people!
This area of Pinyang belongs to his fiefdom, and the head of Qiantou needs to hand over grain to him. He is equivalent to the main family, but he has no management power, only food.
When he has nothing to do, Wang Jian occasionally goes to see the crops.
Great Qin fought with agriculture, and as a general, he also knew a little about farming.
When he first returned to Pinyang, the people were barren. Ten households in a mile can only get one cow. Later, after his development, now three cows in one mile are enough, as long as it is not a busy agricultural period.
Pinyang is originally the county seat of Gyeonggi, and its development is naturally not bad.
With oxen pulling the plow, the day is about one and a half acres.
This is a fine bull, with thick and powerful hooves, and its food is more precious than a man! Raising cattle is more tiring than raising babies, it's okay if people are hungry and thin, but if they lose weight, they will be flogged!
Listening to what Bai Ji said, Wang Jian almost pulled off two beards, and he grinned in pain.
Now a household is about 30 acres of land. According to Bai Ji, this plough ploughs ten acres a day, and a family can finish plowing it in three days. There are two cows in oneness, and it only takes fifteen days for ten families to plough them all!
If there are more cows, the speed will be faster.
Li Si's face turned red, and he didn't say a word for a long time with his mouth open.
Kui Lin and Wang Juan were both a little unsteady, and their faces were full of astonishment.
"Is this plow difficult to do?"
"It's not that hard."
The plough is composed of about 11 parts, and the ploughshare and wall are made of iron. In the land of old Chu, the iron-smelting technology is quite mature, and it is even equipped with copper-handled iron swords. It is not difficult to produce curved plows on a large-scale assembly line. As long as the money is in place, anything can be said.
The most labor-intensive work is the curved plow, and most of the overall structure is made of wood. Therefore, as long as Qin Shi Huang is really willing to promote, an edict will be issued to order the craftsmen of all counties to make every effort to build it.
Timber is easy, and the counties can just sacrifice the old ploughs and spend time going up the hill to cut down the trees. In order to protect the water and soil environment, it must not be cut down casually.
Bai Ji took out the drawings he had drawn earlier, which he had drawn after researching.
It is different from the history books, and it is more like a zigzag plough that has been improved in later generations. Retain the plough evaluation and plough construction, and promote the plough evaluation, so that the plough arrow can be downward, and the ploughshare will be deep into the soil, and vice versa. The structure is more perfect, less material is used, and more labor-saving.
The difference is not big, just more material and more labor-saving.
It's not as good as Wang Jian and they thought, not to mention whether it can be done with ten acres of land a day, even if it can, the cow will have to rest. It is normal for the cattle to plough for one day and rest for two or three days.
Even Qin Shi Huang, including him, came over to study. This makes Bai Ji look at it differently, Qin Shi Huang still understands agricultural tools?
"Fatty, fatty......" Bai Ji patted him on the shoulder and asked in a low voice, "Do you understand?" ”
"Probably all of them."
The drawings were drawn by Bai Ji after research, and the structure of each part was marked by Bai Ji. There are notes on what to do and what materials to use.
Hearing Qin Shi Huang's words, Bai Ji suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Since he understands everything, the craftsman must understand it too.
"This plough is indeed very unique, but it is a little more complicated."
"Produced by the immortal master, it must be a high-quality product!"
Li Xin also thinks it is very unique, and the specific role is not clear for the time being, but what Bai Ji has done must be a good thing! This was the last time he heard Bai Ji say it, and he wrote it down. It is used to praise people for being very learned.
"In terms of materials, it seems to be less?" Kui Lin frowned and spoke, "According to the picture, this thing still needs a blacksmith to make iron?" ”
"Well, it's good to cast a mold."
There are molds in this period, otherwise where would Daqin get the standard equipment?
"Casting molds? Take copper? ”
"With iron."
"How do you cast iron molds?"
White Grass: ......
Say it well, forget about this stubble!
During this period, iron smelting was mainly block iron, and charcoal was used as fuel, and the temperature could not meet the demand. In the end, what you get is a lump of iron, which can only be forged and cannot be cast.
"That forging is also feasible, it takes some effort."
Bai Ji was slightly embarrassed. The rice should be eaten one bite at a time, and if it is not possible, it can be slowly forged first, and the forging can be rough and practical.
Subsequently, the mining of iron ore can be intensified, and then the steel filling method can be implemented. Then you have to mine the coal and find a way to make coking coal.
Not...... Very good idea! The specific operation process still has to spend merit points, and Bai Ji probably knows this. If you want to upgrade the tech tree, it is still very difficult.
"By the way, I happened to make a sample last night, why don't you take a look?"
Got samples?!
Qin Shi Huang's eyes lit up.
Say it early!
After studying for most of the day, they couldn't figure out why.
Just by looking at the picture, can you see a flower?
Don't ask how such a product came about, ask is the fairy law hanging.
……
A ticket came to the white grass room.
He is short and can only look on tiptoe.
Meng Changshan ordered 100 people to guard the surroundings firmly to prevent spies.
How can the heavy weapons of agriculture fall into the hands of others?
The drawings have been put away by Qin Shi Huang.
If it really works, go back and discuss it with the internal history of the cure.
Even if you are frugal and use it sparingly, you have to promote this agricultural tool!
Quyuan plough was nearly a thousand years in advance, and it was casually thrown in the middle of the room by Bai Ji. Fa Cai also jumped up and down on it like a martial artist, as if he used it as a toy.
The plough wall and ploughshare are made of white grass smelted by fire, and a little carbon powder is added, which is no longer iron but steel. The plow is five feet six inches long, and it is one stone, and Li Xin can easily carry it.
Qin Shi Huang couldn't put it down, the wood was very smooth, there were no wooden thorns, and it was more comfortable than a woman to touch. If you pour tung oil again, tsk...... Meidi is very!
"Why don't you go to the fields?"
Wang Jian proposed on the side. Qu Yuan plough is in front of him, if he doesn't test it on the spot, can Qin Shi Huang fall asleep?
"Yes!"
Qin Shi Huang readily agreed, and he waited for others to say this.
This time there was not even a carriage, and a large number of people went out with a bang. It's not blown, just a brick can knock down two Shangqing.
Meng Changshan is bitter and can't be said, pay attention to safety!
With so many big guys, he has more than 800 people, what should I do if he is not well protected?
Even if you dodge your waist and fall, it's not a good thing.
Walking along the road, Bai Ji and Qin Shi Huang walked in front.
Li Xin showed his strong muscles, carried the zigzag plow, and walked behind with a hum. Wang Li still wanted to help, but he was almost spat on by Li Xin.
How? Want to steal credit?!
This is a heavy weapon for rejuvenating agriculture built by the immortal master himself!
"Fatty, in fact, this quyuan plow is nothing, I have a lot of good things here." Bai Ji said quietly: "For example, the cocoon car, the keel waterwheel, the water wheel and so on." How's that, are you interested in having a vote for it?! ”
Qin Shi Huang stumbled and almost planted in the field......
