This kind of saw was invented by Chen Xu, but Chen Xu is just a boy under the age of fifteen in the most remote mountain village under the rule of Pheasant County, and the blacksmith feels that as long as he and his apprentice don't tell it, no one will know, and the young man is ignorant, even if he knows it in the future, it is nothing, at most give him a little benefit to shut up, not to mention that the young man is not a craftsman, and no one will believe that the improved copper saw was invented by him.

Jiangbei Ting, the county magistrate, and the county lieutenant all put their minds on the saw, and they didn't have the leisure to observe the blacksmith's thoughts and small movements.

"Gushan, you don't have to go back to Qinghe Town today, hurry up with the two apprentices to process two or three of the same copper saws overnight, and after you finish, go to Wancheng with me to report to the county guard, as long as you confirm that the process and production are okay, there will be a reward for you at that time!"

"Lord Xie County!" Gu Shan knelt on the ground excitedly and kowtowed heavily.

"Liu Xiancheng, you take Gushan to the craftsman's workshop in the city now, all the things and manpower you need are ready quickly, and the sooner you build, the better!"

"Yes, sir!" Liu Tong agreed and left with Gu Shan and his two apprentices.

"Lord Jiang, this is really good news falling from the sky, I didn't expect such a thorny problem to be solved by a small hand saw!" County Lieutenant Fang Kuan said with emotion.

"The ancients said: If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, and the appearance of such sharp weapons will greatly speed up the construction of the galloping road, and will also greatly reduce the number of people who are recruited, which is really great news!"

Jiang Beiting nodded excitedly, couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart and continued: "We are waiting for Your Majesty to defend the country, for the people to set up a life, of course, we must carefully discover these seemingly inconspicuous improvements and creations, what we eat, wear, and live, are all the experience and results of countless ancestors in the continuous exploration, now the six countries are unified, all the people are one, coupled with the great talent of His Majesty the First Emperor, Prime Minister Li Si's laws and regulations are strict, the car is on the same track, the book is the same text, the degree is the same system, the chaotic regulations that were common in the six countries in the past are slowly unified, and craftsmen from all countries are constantly improving various toolsIf the people are the foundation of Daqin, then these craftsmen are a huge boost to the development of our Daqin, so in the future, we must treat the craftsmen under the rule well, don't be too domineering! ”

"Master Jiang's words, my subordinates have remembered them!" Fang Kuan couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, but he still pretended to be very sincere, and nodded hurriedly.

"Well, you hurry up and get ready, arrange the carriages and horses, and tomorrow I will go to Wancheng to see Lord Junshou! Let's go down! ”

"Yes!" Fang Kuan strode back.

"Such a sharp weapon, it turned out to be made by a craftsman in a remote mountain, I don't know if it's true or not!"

Jiang Beiting was alone, and after carefully turning the saw over and over a few times, he shook his head and left the thoughts in his heart behind.

Regardless of whether this saw is innovated and improved by Gushan, it is no longer important, the important thing is that its appearance may completely change the time and scale of the construction of the Chi Road, as long as a large number of this copper saw can be built for the people to use, the laying of the Chi Road wooden rail This most headache will be solved.

"Puff puff~"

On a whim, Jiangbei Pavilion picked up a copper saw and began to saw a piece of wood placed in the lobby.

"Daddy~" With a clear and pleasant voice, a girl wearing a light blue cloth skirt, suede boots, and a short sword hanging from her waist outside the lobby ran in in a hurry.

Thirteen or fourteen years old, with a figure of about one meter three or four, willow eyebrows and starry eyes, delicate facial features, although the skin is slightly dark, but with a very healthy wheat complexion, the skirt corners are flying during the run, slightly thin, but it already has a bit of a beauty billet appearance.

Jiang Beiting couldn't help but stop and said: "What is it like to shout, if you run outside all day long, I will send you back to Xianyang!" ”

The girl was frightened and stuck out her tongue around Jiang Beiting's arm and said: "Daddy, just now I heard the county lieutenant say that I will go down to recruit people to build a gallop road in the past few days, and I also want to go down to see, there is nothing in this county except for the tattered thatched houses, and I am almost suffocated!" ”

Jiang Beiting glared at the girl and said: "What are you doing with a girl, this is Pheasant County, not Xianyang, there are homeless people and bandits everywhere in the mountains and wilderness, not to mention that now is the time when beasts, insects and snakes are rampant, Daddy has been very busy recently, don't make trouble for me!" ”

"Dad~ You just let me go, I'll let Uncle Liu accompany me, there will be absolutely no problems, Dad~~"

Under the girl's coquettish offensive, Jiang Beiting felt that if he didn't agree, he would definitely not be able to eat and sleep well in the next few days, so he could only agree with a straight face.

So the girl happily hummed the Qin dialect song and jumped out, but after she rode on the back of a jujube red horse tied to the door, a strange look appeared on her little face, and she pulled out a golden short sword at her waist and hummed: "You can kill the four-zhang python, I can also kill the three-zhang tiger, and I am a young hero, I bah!" ”

Well, in fact, Chen Xu didn't know that a beautiful girl from Xianyang City had already smacked him, and he didn't know that the copyright of the improved copper saw he invented had been appropriated by a shameless craftsman.

At this time he was also building his thatched hut.

After four or five days of construction, the foundation of the house was completely laid.

In order to dry the room, Chen Xu adopted the practice of raising the foundation in later generations, the wasteland has been filled with a half-meter-high foundation, the foundation built by stone, filled with soil and tamped with a wooden pestle, it should have been mixed with lime in the soil to kill insects, but there is no condition at the moment, so it can only be settled.

Nine three- or even four-meter-high logs have been erected on the foundation as the main support columns.

More than a dozen people are using twisted green rattan ropes to lift wooden beams and put them on the pillars, and then tie them together with the sawn tenons, and then tie them together with the fumigated green vines.

Half a day passed in a flash, and when the sun set in the west, the frame of the house had been hoisted, crisscrossing more than 20 thigh-thick pieces of wood to form the main structure of the house, and the surface of the wood smoked in the fire was slightly carbonized, looking like a layer of black paint.

Originally, according to the normal procedure, the wood that had just been cut down could not be used to build a house, and it had to be placed in a cool place to dry naturally, but Chen Xu was worried that the thatched hut he lived in would collapse one night, so he didn't care about the deformation in the future, and the new house was much stronger than the house that was about to collapse, even if it only lasted for three or five years, and when he earned enough money, he would build a brick house.
