Chapter 0036 Tower Crane Great Artifact
"Or an artifact? Good! As long as you are good, I promise to ask Your Majesty for gold! ”
Immediately ordered the blacksmith and carpenter to make it overnight, Yun Xiaoshui was always in command in the construction workshop, and every link and every detail had to be verified and agreed by him. It took several days and nights, and all three artifacts were made according to Yun Xiaoshui's requirements.
In fact, Yun Xiaoshui indirectly taught the craftsmen how to make these tools in this process!
The field test of the tool made the Mengjia brothers happy.
The so-called "divine power crane" is to connect several wooden pulleys with small iron chains, and use the principle of large and small pulleys to achieve the effect of lifting, which can be used to lift heavy objects, such as erecting a shelf, and using it to lift boulders.
The "Wan Jun Arm" is to use logs and iron nails to build a hanging tower first, and then carry a wooden arm horizontally on it. There are wooden pulleys fixed at both ends, and ropes are worn to pull them. Attach a heavy object to one end and slide back and forth to lift the stone from the other end.
It is now the principle of "tower crane" used in the wooden tower and manpower control, which is neither as powerful as the machine nor as flexible as the steel arm. However, at that time, it was already a god-level tool.
As for the "thousand cow dragging", it is manpower to push the large turntable, and the big turntable then drives the small turntable to make the rope wrap around the turntable, so as to drag the heavy object. In this way, one person can push the turntable and drag thousands of pounds of stones to change places, and use a well-trained animal to pull the turntable, you can haul very heavy stones, which is both labor-saving and fast.
The use of these three tools not only shortens the construction period, but also reduces the danger to the lives of the servants from working so hard. At the very least, just doing the work is not so easy to exhaust people.
General Meng Tian did not break his promise, and really reported to the First Emperor in person, praising the miraculous tools invented and created by Yun Xiaoshui, which solved a big problem for him and accelerated the construction of the Great Wall, and the credit is really great!
Qin Shi Huang was overjoyed and never spared heavy rewards. Yun Xiaoshui's wish was fulfilled and he got a huge amount of money.
"The first emperor has an order, and he ordered the prodigy craftsman to return to the capital as soon as possible to direct the design and construction of Afang Palace!" General Meng Tian personally passed on the first emperor's order to Yun Xiaoshui.
"Holy! It's going to tire me out! ”
After coming back from the Great Wall, Yun Xiaoshui slept for a day and a night, and there was no food in between, only Leng Yue and Xiangzhi poured some water into his stomach mouth-to-mouth.
"Old lady! This young master can't be sick, right? Let's go and ask the imperial doctor to help him take a look, shall we? Leng Yue sat restlessly beside Yun Xiaoshui, pacing constantly, and asked Mrs. Yuyao over and over again. Mrs. Yuyao herself will cut the pulse to see a doctor, she patiently persuaded them not to be irritable, the young master is caused by lethargy and fatigue, there is no illness, it is good to rest enough!
The so-called participation in the design, Yun Xiaoshui was unwilling to build the Afang Palace for Qin Shi Huang in his heart, which cost the people and money. Besides, Yun Xiaoshui knew that in less than three years, the Afang Palace, which had still not been built, was burned down by Xiang Yu, and he was a loser!
Yun Xiaoshui just symbolically helped to look at the design drawings, and then guided the manufacture and use of several invention tools for building the Great Wall.
On this day, it was cloudy and rainy, Yun Xiaoshui flipped through the book in his hand, and suddenly had an idea. "Anyway, no one can read the page number, and no one knows the true thickness of the Book of Heaven! I might as well turn one into two! Tricks on book stealers! ”
Just do it when you think of it. He first dismantled the book, then interspersed the pages into two thin books, and then placed the back of the book cover in front of the second book to act as a cover. The backs of both books are served as two pages glued together.
The glue that binds the pages of the book, although there is no chemical synthetic glue now, but Yun Xiaoshui has a certain knowledge of plant medicine, found the gum in the woods, and then mixed it with some poisonous herbal juice, which can not only prevent insects, but also change the smell, the gum has a smell.
Yun Xiaoshui called the original cover "Fake Book" and the other one "Book from Heaven". The pages of the Book of Heaven were still covered with phosphorus powder, and some gunpowder was sprinkled in the cracks of the pages. And all the phosphorus powder on the pages of the fake book was removed.
It's really a coincidence! Just when Yun Xiaoshui went to Tianshi Restaurant to have a glass of wine and meet a few friends, the book of heaven at home was stolen. The fake is in the hands of Frost, unharmed!
Yun Xiaoshui was invited by Ba Ying to the Tianshi Restaurant, where Ba Long, the head of the Ba family, personally set up a banquet and waited for Yun Xiaoshui. Ba Long was introduced by the first emperor, and he must make friends with Yun Xiaoshui, although Yun Xiaoshui is not very happy to associate with Ba Long, but it is not good to refuse.
Ba Long not only set up a banquet, but also invited Li Xian, the grandson of Prime Minister Li Si, and the other three high-ranking officials, Yan Shi, Feng Yi, and Lu Zhong.
Barong is tall and burly, with a bold personality. When he speaks, he has a loud voice and a rich intonation. is particularly good at communication and public relations, and may be born a business giant.
After three rounds of drinking, Yun Xiaoshui deepened his impression with the four officials and three generations one by one at the invitation of Ba Long, that is, he drank wine alone one by one. At this time, Yun Xiaoshui was a little wary in his heart, "Don't you still want to see my drunken stinky appearance and jokes?" ”
Yun Xiaoshui quietly followed Ba Long's arrangement one by one, in fact, he knew it in his heart. As far as the low-alcohol wine of the Great Qin period they drank was similar to modern champagne, when would they be able to get drunk?
Seeing that Yun Xiaoshui was not drunk at all, Barong and the others were in a mess, bragging and flattering each other, and ended hastily.
After this dating banquet, Yun Xiaoshui did not have a good relationship with Ba Long, and only got to know Yan Shi, Feng Yi, etc., but he got along with Li Xianting and formed a good friendship. That Li Xian looks delicate, the man looks like a woman, and he is still a fairy-level woman, gentle and elegant, and it is extremely difficult to judge the gender, however, there is a woman's behavior, and there is no woman's voice. The voice is still rough, extremely incongruous.
After returning home, he learned that the Book of Heaven was lost, although Yun Xiaoshui was not very distressed, he was very shocked! The reason for the shock is that the time was well chosen, and the second is that it was not done by his family, but was stolen directly from the outside.
"Eun Gong! There are spies in the house! The masters of stealing books this time are two Dongying pirates from the Ji Mansion of Bohai County, and they all know how to ghost! I have already sent the book to Zhao's Mansion, do you want to go down and steal it back? "I came to ask for my life, chasing the wind and asking the clouds and small waterways.
Yun Xiaoshui waved his hand and said no, and told Chasing Feng that the book was a fake heavenly book, leave it alone! Yun Xiaoshui was interested in asking Chasing Wind, how did he compare to those two pirates?
Chasing Feng said sincerely, the stealing skills are comparable, light skills and martial arts, he is higher than either of the two of them, and he should barely be able to fight one against two.
"Good! Hurry up and train your men! Don't be afraid to spend money! ”
"Yes!"
After sending away Chasing the Wind, Yun Xiaoshui began to think about a way to find out the traitor.
Even Mrs. Yuyao suggested letting the wind out, saying that the stolen book was fake, and then getting a wooden board as bait to lure the thieves out. This time, Yun Xiaoshui didn't adopt everyone's opinions, and his idea was to conceal the truth, as if it hadn't happened, and wait for the thieves to jump out by themselves.
"How long will that take? Master! Leng Yue asked.
"Don't worry! It won't be long! ”
After that, the entire Craftsman's Mansion remained the same. There are two books from heaven that few people know about in the first place. This is lost, and if it is deliberately concealed, few people will know about it.
Yun Xiaoshui is still in the imperial court every day, on the construction site of Afang Palace, and his shadow is also seen in the Tianshi Restaurant, and these places are shuttling back and forth.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before a thief jumped out on his own.
