When the farm was not busy, there were more idlers.

It is said that it is idle, but in fact there is less work in the fields, including silkworm raising.

Many men came out to find work, and some were requisitioned to build water conservancy and roads.

Li Yi and Li Longji said that Li Longji knew about the cancellation of the adjustment and the levy of business taxes, but he did not dare to move.

Li Longji was waiting, waiting for his own army to be trained.

Otherwise, if the interests of various families are touched, and there will be a rebellion or something, Li Longji feels that he can't bear it.

Li Yi took the other 20 people who had learned a few suturing operations in the morning to practice their fingers again, and then ran to the river to watch the team of silt fishing.

On the surface of the Bashui River, there are people standing on boats, and there is a large wooden shelf on the boat.

On the wooden shelf is a simple hand hoist designed and manufactured by Li Yi, which is the tool of the pulley block.

Then a large iron spoon like an excavator was thrown into the river and chained.

As soon as the boat moved, a large spoon of silt was hooked, and the people on the boat tugged at the chain of the gourd, and the iron spoon was slowly lifted up.

If you don't have this hand gourd, you can use a long rod to clean up the mud, and the position of the rod head is a spoon, which is similar to a large dung spoon.

Fish slowly little by little.

Li Yi obviously has a good method and money, how can he operate like that?

He hired people to do the work, so that others could earn more money, so that they could survive the winter.

One is to increase longevity, and the other is to be in a good mood.

When doctors want every patient they handle to be healthy, when the rich also want to help others and gain the gratitude of others.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were many wealthy families who paid for the repair of bridges and roads, and those who died and had no money to bury them had to come up with money to help.

Especially for people in the same village, if the rich people don't have a good reputation, and the villagers don't support them, something will happen.

Li Yi's Zhuangzi didn't need to say whether he had money or not, so he found someone to pay more wages and scoop up the mud for several purposes.

The silt fertilizes the fields, the river is less silt, and it is convenient for boats, and he plans to take advantage of this river convenience.

Now he is too busy to spare his hands, otherwise he would have used the water long ago.

"Proprietor Lee." As soon as Li Yi came over, someone dressed as an official greeted him.

Li Yi recalled that he had the impression that Zheng Guang, a member of the Ministry of Water of the Ministry of Industry.

Zheng Guang also brought a few people, don't look at him as a seven-rank official, that is not comparable to the prime ministers.

The staff of the Ministry of Water has real power and has people under him.

"Zheng Yuanwai is not harmed?" Li Yi gave up.

"Lao Li is worried, what is this thing that can make the big iron spoon rise a little after a lot of dragging?" Zheng Guang asked, pointing to the gourd.

The iron spoon is heavy, pulls directly, and requires many people.

If it is a counterweight, using the principle of leverage, there is a big stone in the back, and the boat needs to be larger, otherwise the stone and the iron spoon that scoops up the silt will not be able to withstand it.

Those who followed Zheng Guang were curious, Zheng Yuanwailang was still so polite to the people of Yi Zhuangzi? Although this Zhuangzi has some money.

Zheng Guang didn't know what people thought, but he knew what Li Yi was capable of, and His Majesty, the Prime Minister, and the Queen Wang all laughed at him.

"If proprietor Li is willing to help, this official, oh, I can show proprietor Li ......"

"Zheng Yuanwai is polite, just a hand gourd, I have drawings, Zheng Yuanwai will use it, not only dredging, but also loading and unloading at the wharf."

Li Yi didn't wait for Zheng Guang to finish speaking, waved his hand, and agreed.

He doesn't need anyone to help him put on the table, the things he took out have increased his life expectancy a lot, obviously promoted by the imperial court, how could Li Longji not know?

What's more, it is useless to send a seven-grade petty official watch to help train the troops.

"Green pine, the drawings of the hand gourd, in which craftsman's hand? Take a copy. Li Yi turned his head to the eunuch and said.

Qing Song turned his head and ran away, Zheng Guang's followers were stunned, did the eunuch and the palace maid listen to this?

I thought it was sent by the palace to see the water conservancy.

"Hello Li Dongzhu."

"Hello proprietor!"

The people on the nearby mud boat saw Li Yi one after another and shouted hello loudly.

Li Yi waved his hand, and this moment was full of a sense of accomplishment.

It's like curing a sick person and the other party sends a pennant.

So he shouted: "When I go back in the evening, one person brings two salted duck eggs, you know, there are too many ducks on the Zhuangzi, there is no place to put the eggs, right?" Help me eat. ”

Voices of thanks and laughter were heard on the river.

The farmer in charge of carrying the silt on the Zhuangzi has a smile on his face.

The silt is good, and there are loaches in the key silt.

The person who fishes the mud is just working, and everything he catches belongs to Zhuangzi.

Loaches are naturally Zhuangzi and can be eaten.

Waiting for Qingsong to bring the drawings, Li Yi handed them to Zheng Guang casually.

Zheng Guang carefully put it into his arms, and his eyes continued to stare at the hand gourd, and the more he looked at it, the more amazing he felt.

One person can pull more than a dozen people's weights without any effort, but the time is a bit long.

After looking at it for a while, he led people to leave in a hurry, to report back to the Ministry of Works, and tell Shangshu.

It was not only the drawings that were taken away, but also the physical object.

Wei Zhigu, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, didn't know that his fate had been changed, he was in a good mood, and His Majesty called himself for dinner.

It's very motivating to get to work.

Then I saw Zheng Guang, who had reported to the next level, and at the same time knew that Li Yiyou had invented a new thing.

"In the future, if there is anything about Li Yi Zhuangzi, you will come to me directly." Wei Zhigu knew the consequences of Zheng Guang's overstepping the report.

He understands that if he doesn't skip the ranks, if Zheng Guang doesn't pay attention to it, he will lose the time to discover good things quickly.

When the time comes, you have to clean up Zheng Guang's Shangguan, Zheng Guang bought himself time, and at the same time protected Shangguan, okay.

Zheng Guang almost cried, that's what he thought.

I even thought about making meritorious contributions and being promoted.

When he left, Wei Zhigu dragged his gourd to Xingqing Hall with great difficulty, and theoretically he should go to the political hall to find the prime minister.

He knew where the government hall was, and he could walk through it with his eyes closed.

But he just didn't go, holding his breath.

When I arrived at Xingqing Palace to ask for an audience, I saw three prime ministers when I went in.

He dragged the gourd in with difficulty: "Your Majesty, Zheng Guang, a member of the Ministry of Ministers and the Ministry of Water, learned about an artifact in Li Yi Zhuangzi. ”

"Another artifact?" Yao Chong asked, looking at the thing with the chain.

"Your Majesty, with this thing, one person can make ten people." Wei Zhigu ignored Yao Chong and said directly to Li Longji.

Li Longji personally stepped forward, took the drawings, read the instructions, and instructed someone to arrange them.

After a while, a large shelf was erected outside the hall, and the hand gourd was hoisted up.

A large stone lock was brought by a few wrestlers below.

Wei Zhigu moved his hand, put on the stone lock, and hung it on one end of the hand gourd.

Then he stood on the other side, clattering and tugging at the chains.

Dragged and dragged, there were enough catties of stone locks off the ground and raised, Wei Zhigu continued to pull, and the stone locks rose higher and higher.

Li Longji looked at it, took a deep breath, and said, "If it is used with the orange tree, it will be easy to carry heavy objects." ”

He was right, cranes, or tower cranes, were more accurate.

The three prime ministers were amazed when they saw Wei Zhigu's weak old body and bones rattling and hanging such a big and heavy stone lock.

Li Yi ...... Alas......" Yao Chong couldn't say a complete sentence.

Zhang Shuo shrugged his shoulders like Li Yi he had seen before, he didn't want to speak, he was not afraid of comparing himself with others, but Li Yi was not a human being at all.
