The vigorous recruitment of artisans failed at the beginning, and there were not enough suitable people for them to choose.

Li Yuanjing simply suspended recruitment, preferring shortage to abuse.

The other is that there are many people, and as time goes by, the understanding of the family is becoming clearer and clearer, and it is undoubtedly more difficult to build a family.

The power of the family involves politics, military, economy, land, and all aspects of life, and their power exists.

Li Yuanjing is still thinking about how to break this unbalanced circle, but it does not affect him to make the first move.

"Your Highness, this is the plough commonly used by the people, it is difficult to control without a few years of experience, and there is a big difference between wood and iron!" Yang Li pointed to a brand-new straight plough in front of him and explained.

Yang Li was carved by the carpenter personally recruited by Li Yuanjing that day, and after living in the palace, Li Yuanjing's only task for him was to build a plow.

Li Yuanjing seriously explored the straight plow, and asked someone to bring a cow to fix it, and tried it himself.

The cow is very difficult to pull up, and Li Yuanjing in the back is also very difficult to control, not to mention the speed is like a turtle crawling, not to mention, the strength on the body is slightly off, it may be stuck, or crooked, and it is very inconvenient to use.

"Your Highness, there is skill in using this kind of plow, one is to take a good direction, the person in front of the ox is also very important, and the other is to press down hard, the greater the pressure, the less likely it is to deviate ......" Yang Li took the wooden plow and demonstrated it himself.

A deep ravine appeared on the ground, like a straight line, and this was only compared to the ravine operated by Li Yuanjing.

However, the depth is about an ankle deeper than just now.

Ploughing is too shallow, so that the soil under the bottom cannot be relaxed, which is not good for the growth of crops.

"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools!" Li Yuanjing shook his head, although he had already had an idea, he still couldn't help pretending to be forced.

The straight plough has two major characteristics, one is that the stress point is straight, and the whole pear body can see all the places that are straight, even the coulter is straight, but the top is offset backwards and makes a slope.

Is it easy to operate if it's just so straightforward? Can it be efficient?

If you are too lazy to go around too much, there is no need to go around this kind of thing, you can do it if you can, which is also good for yourself.

"The force point is wrong, so the cow is also hard, and the person is also hard, so you have to learn to use skill!"

"I think it's a coincidence, I can't do it anyway!" Cheng Chuliang touched his little head, such a good wooden plow was actually said in Li Yuanjing's mouth.

In fact, whether the plow is good or not, it is easy to use it with an iron head, but iron is a controlled item and cannot be obtained by ordinary people.

However, their family's farm uses iron heads, after all, the national government is not short of such iron.

"Use your brains!" Li Yuanjing knocked on Cheng Chuliang's little head speechlessly, pointed to the front end of the wooden plough and said: "The principle is the same as people pulling the cart, the taller the person, the more difficult it is to pull up the car, if you want to speed up, the best way is to bend down, so that you can make strength, the speed of the car can also be improved, and the same is true for cattle." ”

"That's the truth, but it's not like I haven't tried it before, the fixed point is shifted downward, but it's more difficult to pull up, and I often sink into the ground!" Yang Li smiled bitterly.

"If one method doesn't work, then change the method, for example, work hard from this plough to make a curved type, reduce the height of the front, so that it can reduce the height at the same time, and keep a certain distance from the ground, so that he can't touch the ground, won't the problem be solved?

There is also this coulter, straight up and straight down is very bad, you can fantasize about cutting people, straight up and straight down is difficult to achieve the desired effect, so the soldiers habitually cut off, which can not only cause more serious damage, but also help themselves get out, this coulter also obliquely! Li Yuanjing directly said the shape of the Quyuan plow.

The curved plough was born from the straight plow, adding a few small parts, changing the shape of several main parts, and then the efficiency of plowing was increased several times.

"Your Highness, this will take some time, and if it doesn't take more than a few days, the curvature made will be easy to deform." Yang Li nodded, whether it is okay His Royal Highness has the final say, he is just a part-time worker, he can do whatever he wants, he doesn't want to be smashed because of his mouth in such a comfortable day.

"Well, you do your best, and in addition the coulter is replaced with an iron one, and the bevel angle is tried a few more times." Li Yuanjing turned his head to look at Cheng Chuliang: "The matter of plowing is handed over to you, and after you do it well, you will directly let your father carry it to the palace!" ”

"Does this thing really work?" Cheng Chuliang still can't believe that just such a gadget can make him knighted?

"Hehe......" Li Yuanjing gave Cheng Chuliang a smile like caring for mentally handicapped children.

Although the Tang Dynasty is still martial, it is still based on agriculture at its root, and even in the era of economic take-off in later generations, agriculture does not dare to ignore it.

That is, the level of science and technology can't keep up, and his ability is limited, otherwise he will do it in one step, directly get out the artifact of the tractor, and come to mechanized farming, Li Er is afraid that he will be able to wake up with a smile even from sleep.

Even now, it is estimated that Li Er is secretly having fun.

"Your Highness, catch a few unidentified people!"

"Tell me the details!" Liu Hu frowned and stared at his subordinates who were reporting.

"No, I received a notice from the villagers, saying that there were a few sneaky guys in the village, who didn't look like good people, so my subordinates took people to interrogate, but these people ran away when they saw their subordinates, and they surrounded the villagers before they caught them, and injured a villager ......"

"They have weapons on them?" Li Yuanjing was stunned.

"Each of them has a dagger on them!"

"Take this king over and go to see the injured villagers first!" Li Yuanjing felt that this matter was not simple.

This is Huangzhuang, generally speaking, the little thieves dare not come in, the background here is not something they can provoke, just stealing things is good to say, people will never dare to hurt, otherwise the government will be investigated to the end.

Entering the Huangzhuang to steal something, this is a slap in the face of the emperor.

Huangzhuang, which has never had a public security case, has such a thing today, and Li Yuanjing has a feeling of being targeted.

The injured Zhuangmin is called Niu Da, in his early thirties, and has been a Zhuangmin for generations, after Li Shimin took the throne, he naturally became Li Shimin's Zhuangmin, and now in general terms, he also belongs to Li Yuanjing's Zhuangmin.

Li Yuanjing personally came to offer condolences, which frightened Niu Da and stood there at a loss.

The wound on his arm had been treated, but red blood could still be seen.

"Help him deal with it!" Li Yuanjing waved his hand, the injury was not serious, it was a common injury in the army, there were hemostatic drugs for the army, and he recovered quickly.

A soldier took out a small medicine bottle from his body, untied the rag wrapped around the wound, sprinkled the powder from the medicine bottle on the wound, and then bandaged it with a special bandage.

"Whistleblowers, all those who participate in the siege, the reward is consistent, and then give Niu Da a stone of grain as a reward!" Li Yuanjing was lazy to say those generous words, and directly offered rewards, and sometimes, real money is more acceptable than empty talk.

"Your Highness, you can't do it, this is the duty of the villain, how can you ask for a reward from Your Highness......" Niu Da was a little flustered, and he hadn't reacted yet.

"If you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will be punished, you can take these with peace of mind, and if you have it in the future, don't blame this king for punishing you!" Li Yuanjing smiled and patted Niu Da on the shoulder: "Don't worry, this king won't let you suffer this knife in vain!" ”
