Early the next morning, Wei Renshi got up and shouted Xi'er, ran out of the house together, and ran along the road not fast or slow.

Running, doing exercises, Wei Renshi is exercising, Xi'er is purely interesting to watch, and Wei Renshi asks for it, so he follows the unhurried learning.

But Wei Renshi is not too demanding, just at the beginning, whether it is imitation or playing, after forming a habit, stick to it, and achieve the goal.

Changgu has no carpenters and no blacksmiths, and if you want to build a Quyuan plow, you have to go to Fuchang.

After another bowl of corn, Wei Renshi went out of the house and went to Fuchang along the road.

Although Fuchang is only a small county, it is also under the rule of Luozhou, and it is on the way to Luoyang City, which is not too far from Luoyang City, so there are many people. Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.

There are more than ten parts of the Quyuan plow, and Wei Renshi successively found five carpenters and three blacksmiths in Fuchang County, and each of them gave a part, or a pattern of several parts that could not be directly put together. Because the parts made by each craftsman are different, in order to be able to assemble them smoothly at that time, the accuracy of the interface is relatively high.

Explaining the size of different parts to different craftsmen took Wei Renshi a lot of time.

Wei Renshi's mother wiped her face under the lamp, and Xi'er yawned beside her with a wooden basin.

"My son has been out all day today, but what have you done?" Mrs. Tai asked softly.

Wei Renshi knew that Mrs. Tai wanted him to study and gain fame in the future.

So he lied: "I thought about it for a few days, and I felt that reading should not be done behind closed doors." I used to hear a Taoist priest who said that 'if you don't enter the red dust, you can see through the red dust', and now that the child wants to come, reading is the same. Since you have the heart to join the government and benefit the people, you must know the people and understand the people. If you don't go to contact the people and stay in the study, how can you benefit the people in the future? Therefore, the child decided to go out and walk more in the future, to see, to understand all sentient beings, so that he could be mindful of sentient beings. ”

Mrs. Tai looked at Wei Renshi in some surprise, and was stunned for a moment before she said: "My son's words are quite insightful, and your father also said this in his early years. Reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles, my son should go out for a walk. However, it is important to remember that you must not abandon your studies. ”

"Yes, the child remembers his mother's teachings." Wei Renshi nodded and replied.

At this time, there is no entertainment, and the lamp can be used as little as possible, otherwise it will be an expense. Therefore, as soon as Wei Renshi came back, he turned off the lights early.

Wei Renshi went back to the room early to lie down, but he couldn't sleep after tossing and turning.

It seems to wake up but not wake up, it seems to sleep but not sleep, all kinds of memories come and go in the brain, even what has been forgotten, or only a little memory, or even inadvertently see and hear...... It's all clearly emerging.

The night passed, and the mind was full of prosperity. When I opened my eyes, I was going to work in the fields again.

The farm work in the field is not easy to do, Wei Renshi has empty thoughts, but this body is not strong, and it can't play much role after all.

After a while, I was dizzy and sweaty, and I wanted to lie down on the ground.

Mrs. Tai was also sweaty, gritting her teeth and insisting, as miserable as Xi'er, still struggling. One pulls hard in the front, and the other pushes hard in the back, which is sad to look at.

Wei Renshi sighed.

"Mrs. Wei, Wei Xiaolangjun!" There were shouts from the ridges.

And when they looked back, they saw that the earth was coming down from above.

When she arrived, Mrs. Tai was very respectful and polite, and said, "Wei has seen Lizheng." ”

Li Zheng turned out to be not an old man, but a sturdy man in his forties, so he first took a step to the side and said, "This can torment me." Then he said: "Mrs. Wei's house is full of women and children, and it is not easy to come to cultivate the land. Don't worry, almost all other families can plough it out in the past few days, and when the time comes, a few young people will be called and the land will be plowed for your family. ”

"After ploughing, we still have to water, and there is no canal in Changgu, so we all rely on the young and strong to carry water to the fields. How can my family delay other people's farming time? Mrs. Tai shook her head and said, "Thank you for the good intentions, although my family is slow to cultivate, it is only a few more days." ”

Li Zheng looked down, pulled a few times with his foot, and said, "No, Mrs. Wei, this is a white plough - it's too shallow, and the stone hasn't been picked up yet." There are a few other widows and orphans in the local area, and every year they bring a group of young people to help with farming, but it is just a piggyback, and Mrs. Wei does not have to be polite. ”

Wei Ren saw that Li Zheng was so enthusiastic, and he was curious, looking at Li Zheng's somewhat nervous expression, and looking at Mrs. Tai's deliberate distance, he seemed to understand something in an instant.

I can't help but laugh.

However, he smiled and smiled, but he also heard a question, so he asked: "Ask Zheng Lizheng, I see that there is a cylinder car on the river, why do you need to carry water to water the ground?" ”

"Wei Xiaolangjun doesn't know, there is a Daoyuan River near the local area, and there are Luoshui and Yishui in the distance, although there is no shortage of water, the land of Changgu is mostly on the hills, although there are cylinder cars to draw water, but they can't come up to us." Li Zheng replied: "Thank you to the young people here, so I took the young people of each family to form a team to carry water, and each family took turns to water the ground." ”

Wei Renshi frowned slightly, he thought that there should already be a high drum car at this time. But he couldn't be sure, so he asked, "I know that there is a kind of cart that is very powerful and can carry the river to the top of the mountain, but we don't have it here?" ”

Li Zheng smiled: "I've seen this kind of tube car, but I'm afraid we won't be able to use it here." Luoshui and Yishui are too far away, and the water of Daoyuan River is too slow, and the momentum is insufficient. The kind of cylinder car that Xiao Langjun said must have a very fast flow of water before it can be powerful. ”

In general, Fuchang should be regarded as a plain. So the water flows gently. The high-drum cart had to rely on the rushing river rush to lift the bucket and pour it into the wooden trough.

The terrain of Changgu is slightly higher than the rest of Fuchang, but it is not too high. The high drum car cannot be used, but there is another kind of water wheel, but it is better to need a smooth water flow.

These wheels need to be placed in slower-flowing water, but still able to carry a steady stream of water higher up the shore.

And Changgu has a back slope, which is actually a very low mound, but it is also higher than the fields of Changgu.

If the two are combined, they may be able to play a significant role.

Therefore, Wei Renshi looked at his own few acres of land, and looked at his tired family, thought about it, and said to Li Zheng: "Uncle Zheng, I have a method that can save the young people in the village from the labor of carrying water and watering the land in the future." In the future, the fields of Changgu may basically no longer need to be watered by manpower. I use this method to exchange for other young people to cultivate the fields for my family, okay? ”
