Chapter 143 The Mojia Ink Worker
After not returning to Qingping County for two months, the Dragon King found that Qingping County had changed a lot.
The most obvious change is that Pingfeng Road has been opened, and a six-meter-wide cement road connects the two counties, allowing the two counties to communicate more and more closely.
In addition, the rebuilt county seat of Qingping after the demolition has been quite large-scale, overlooking the county seat from a high altitude, you can see that the county seat centered on peach trees is surrounded by clean and neat new houses, and everyone has moved into the new house, but the houses are still being repaired, and finally a complete closed loop will be formed.
Outside the county, there are several new schools that are bright and atmospheric, but they are not yet in use because there are no teachers, but some children can already go to play inside.
"Quan Gang, you've done a good job." The Dragon King praised Quan Gang, who was patrolling beside him.
Quan Gang nodded, and took the praise of the Dragon King, although these are the plans of the Dragon King, but Quan Gang is the executor, watching Qingping County slowly form such a scale from nothing, Quan Gang also has a huge sense of accomplishment in his heart.
"It's almost the New Year."
"yes, the new year is coming again."
This year's harvest is good, the tax is low, and every household has a lot of surplus grain, and many families are even so extravagant that they use grain to make wine.
The dragon king was happy to see this happen, because it meant that his people had begun to rise from mere food and drink to the level of spiritual enjoyment.
Seeing a herd of cattle and sheep running in the wilderness outside the city, the dragon king suddenly thought of the matter of the biogas digester: "What happened to the biogas digester?" ”
Quan Gang said happily: "The student almost forgot, Dragon King, this matter has been completed." ”
"Oh? Is it done? ”
The biogas digester is better to say, but it is more difficult to build a pipe for biogas, and there is almost no such technology among blacksmiths nowadays, so has the technology improved?
"Does the Dragon King know the Mo family?"
"The Mo family? Is it the Mo family founded by Mo Zhai? ”
"Yes, it is said that the Mo family was a scholar in the world in the pre-Qin period, but because of unknown reasons, the Mo family declined, and now, the only remaining Mo family in the world are some ink workers, and the success of the biogas digester depends on these ink workers."
What do you mean because of unknown reasons? The Dragon King knew very well in his heart, but because of the Western Han Dynasty's proposal of 'deposing the hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone', in addition to the great prosperity of Confucianism, all the sons and hundreds of schools were suppressed by Confucianism, either to change the skin to hug the thighs of Confucianism, or simply inherit and extinct it.
"Is there still an inkman alive? That's good, let's go meet these inkmen. ”
Ink workers, that is, Mo craftsmen, legend has it that the Mo family will do tricks, these are all made by Mo craftsmen, some of the ideas of the Mo family may be cut off, but as long as there are craftsmen, the ink workers will always exist.
On the way to meet the inkmen, Quan Gang told the dragon king about the deeds of these inkmen, and he was very suspicious of these inkmen, because these inkmen actually thought of using rubber to make biogas pipes, and they really made them successful.
"Where did they come from?"
"They claimed to be from Yangzhou, and King Mulong was famous, and they came to serve on purpose."
"Haha, that's good." The dragon king was even happier.
Mo Gong also lived in the city, and when he came to the front of a few houses, Quan Gang shouted: "Brother Mo Liang, are you at home?" ”
A black man walked out of the house, and when he saw the Dragon King, he was shocked and quickly knelt down: "It turned out to be the Dragon King in person, and the little Mo Liang has seen the Dragon King." ”
"Get up, no need to be polite." The Dragon King asked him to get up first, and said to this Mo Liang: "Quan just told this king, you thought of making a biogas pipe out of rubber, why do you think so?" ”
"Yulong King, the small one just thinks that the rubber is quite strong, and the elasticity is excellent, and it is easier to process, so I tried it, and I didn't think it would really be."
"Brother Mo Liang, don't be modest, you have made so many things, why don't you take them out and let the Dragon King take a look? lest they be buried in the world? ”
"Mo Liang, do you have anything else? Take them all out for the king to see, and see how good the craftsmanship of the Mo family ink workers is. ”
Mo Liang's face was happy, "Then please wait for a while, and the little one will come." ”
When talking to Mo Liang, some people also came out of several rooms around, and Quan Gang hurriedly introduced, it turned out that these people were all surnamed Mo, and they were all ink workers, and their skills were quite good. And Mo Liang is the chief of this generation of ink workers.
These ink workers came thousands of miles to serve the Dragon King, they lived in Qingping County for a period of time, and already had a sense of belonging to Qingping County, and now they saw the Dragon King again, the Dragon King had a peaceful attitude towards these people, and the faces of these people were overjoyed, and they felt that they really didn't come wrong.
Mo Liang quickly came out, holding two things in his hands, and the dragon king saw that these two things were a wooden bird, a small wooden horse, and a thing that looked like a wooden ox, but only half of his body was pushed out by him.
The Dragon King had some vague guesses, but asked, "Mo Liang, what are these three things?" What is it for? Carefully to this king. ”
"Whoa."
Mo Liang took the wooden bird, turned it around and let the dragon king look at it, this wooden bird looks extremely realistic, there is something like a wrench under the abdomen, Mo Liang turned a few times, threw it into the sky, only to see the wooden bird flapping its wings in the air, and it actually flew up like this, and it didn't land for a long time.
It's obviously not the first time Quan Gang has seen it, but he's still amazed.
"Mo Liang, this wooden bird has the same ingenuity as the Gong-like trap bird."
Mo Liang replied respectfully: "Yes, the Mo family ink workers have a long heritage, the predecessors of the public loss have had exchanges with the first giant, and later the first giant founded the ink workers, the predecessors of the public loss used to be the master of the ink workers, and the small wooden bird is also emulating the predecessors of the public loss, but it is far from the organ bird of the predecessors of the public loss." ”
"You don't have to be presumptuous, you can make this kind of strange thing, your craftsmanship is obvious, what is the use of this Trojan horse?"
"My inkman has always wanted to use mechanical skills instead of animal power, and this Trojan horse was created with this concept in mind." There is also a wrench under the belly of the Trojan horse, Mo Liang turned it a few times, put the Trojan horse on the ground, and the Trojan horse ran up with a bang, and ran quite fast: "This small thing has been tried, only once, you can walk more than a mile, if you can make a big horse, it is not a lie to travel thousands of miles a day." ”
"Chirito? Are you sure? ”
"Small certainty." Mo Liang said in a deep voice.
If a Trojan horse can run a thousand miles a day and only needs to turn a few wrenches, then this Trojan horse is too good, but looking at Mo Liang's appearance, it seems that he is really not bragging.
"What about this half-cut wooden ox? What is the effect? ”
"Dragon King, this half of the wooden ox is called a siege cow by the small one!!" Mo Liang said, sat in directly, controlled the mechanism, and the wooden cow moved slowly, "People can sit in the abdomen, this is covered with a board, control the mechanism, and the wooden cow can attack the city." ”
"That's too slow, isn't it?" Quan Gang said a little puzzled.
"It can be speeded up."
After that, I saw the wooden cow swish and sped up, and it ran like a cow, it can be imagined that if the size is increased, and some ramming horns are added in front, I am afraid that it can really attack the city.
"This kind of strange thing, if you dedicate it to any county lord or taishou, you should pay attention to it, right?" The Dragon King was a little puzzled.
When he mentioned this, Mo Liang looked bitter: "The craftsmen are all lowly, where can the small ones see the county or the Taishou?" ”
The Dragon King was speechless for a moment, Shi Nong Gong and Gong, this ancient class concept is really killing people.
