Chapter 82: The third uncle has made a decision
The straight plough is a little larger than the wooden plow, of course, as the biggest difference is that the plow has become an iron guy, although everyone has seen it for the first time, but out of the understanding of the farm tool, everyone still recognizes its purpose at the first time.

"Plow?" The third uncle walked over tremblingly, looked carefully and looked at Liu Laohan suspiciously.
"Huh! The third uncle is the plowshare! Liu Laohan was very proud, he was one of the first people to experiment with this plow, and immediately gushed out: "Don't look at this guy is different from our previous wooden plow, but it's amazing!" I tried it with them just now, and it was slippery on the ground! I estimate that if the cow's injury is healed, I can plough at least ten acres of land a day! ”
"You... How much do you say? The third uncle didn't seem to hear clearly, and asked again.
Not only him, but all the villagers, men and women, young and old, could not believe their ears at this moment, so the whole clearing became unusually quiet, except for the sound of heavy breathing filling the surroundings.
"Ten acres! Nothing more, no less! Liu Laohan repeated it loudly again.
"What?" The third uncle's whole body immediately let out a more intense tremor, and the crutches in his hand 'clicked!' Then he fell to the ground, bounced twice along the grass, and came to a stop under the stone roots beside him.
The two young men who were holding him couldn't help but tighten their hands, if something happened to the third uncle, the two of them would not have a good life.
"Get out of the way!" The third uncle waved his hands, broke free from the support of the young man, spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, and the whole person immediately became energetic, his legs were not sore, his waist was not painful, and he strode to the straight plow, as if he was playing with a work of art, and kept stroking the smooth plow body of the plowshare.
"Good stuff! Sure enough, it's a good thing! The third uncle stroked it for a while, and then said to himself: "There is pig iron on the wooden tip, um! Don't be afraid of the general dirt! And the handle is longer, and the pedal is easy to put on the foot......"
Although the third uncle is very old, judging from the few words he heard, Zhang Yi felt that this old man, who was estimated to not live long, should be a crop veteran who was quite good at farming, and he also had a high attainment in the use of farm tools.
Just like Liu Laohan, he is a person who uses a straight plow as a person, but in addition to knowing that it is easy to use, you ask him to say what is good, but he can't say. The third uncle not only commented on the straight plow one by one from the change in the material of the wooden plow, but also from the design and ergonomics.
"So didn't I ask you to come and see it?" Liu Laohan hurriedly stepped forward to help the third uncle, and then said with a straight face: "The little nephew thinks that this plow is a treasure, so I hope that the third uncle will set up a rule here to prevent it from spreading!" ”
"What the hell is a spiritual baby!" Hearing Liu Laohan's words, the third uncle was very satisfied, and after patting Liu Laohan, he said loudly: "What Liu Tiedan said is reasonable, this plow will be our Zhangjiazhuang's unique treasure in the future, and it cannot be passed on!" As he spoke, he wanted to knock on the ground with his crutches to show his authority, but then he found that the crutches were still lying on the ground.
So someone immediately sent the crutches to the third uncle, and the third uncle continued: "I don't worry about the men on the Zhuangzi, it's those women, one by one, who are idle and panicked, and control your open mouth!" Relatives, mother's family, the village next door.... As long as I know who said it, don't blame me for driving his family out of Zhangjiazhuang! ”
This is the prestige of a village elder.
No one dared to question the words of the third uncle, and even the most pungent woman couldn't help but stick out her tongue, secretly warning herself in her heart that she must not tell this secret.
It is conceivable that from today onwards, if there are no irresistible factors, Zhangjiazhuang does not plan to tell the secret of the straight plough, even if it is impossible to share. Originally, I just watched the excitement, but I didn't want to really witness the degree of secrecy of the ancients for secrets.
Zhang Yi believes that if there is really a daughter-in-law or aunt or god of that family, this third uncle will definitely drive the family out of Zhangjiazhuang without hesitation, and no one will stop it!
After the meeting, as the current owner of Zhangjiazhuang, Zhang Yi naturally needs to speak. Of course, Zhang Yi didn't feel that he had anything worth saying here, but looking at the big guy's warm eyes, he had no choice but to say: "Since the third uncle has spoken, then Zhuangzi will follow the words of the third uncle!" In addition, spring ploughing is coming, and we originally planned to plant all herbs in Zhuangzi, but the news we got from Steward Zhong a year ago said that I am afraid that there are not enough seeds, so we estimate that we can only plant half of them this year, and the other half can only grow grain.
I said before, our future input is in the medicinal materials, so every family must carefully think about how to grow the medicinal materials this time, and all kinds of medicinal materials have those habits! ”
In fact, everyone in Zhuangzi knows about the cultivation of medicinal materials in Zhangjiazhuang, and the reason why it is brought up here is nothing more than to sound another alarm bell for the door of the villager. For the new thing of planting medicinal herbs, in the final analysis, for the villagers, it is still the first time that the big girl has been in the sedan chair.
This not only involves whether the medicinal materials grown can be harvested, but even if they are harvested, they can be turned into copper coins or grain....
In short, it would be absolutely foolish for everyone to say that they are not worried about such a new agricultural model. If it weren't for the support of Zhang Yi, a wealthy lord, they wouldn't dare to do it even if they were given a hundred dares.
"Sir.. Do you think you can really make money growing medicinal herbs? The third uncle looked at the somewhat silent Zhuang around him, carefully looked at Zhang Yi's face again, and asked softly.
As the most respected old man in Zhuangzi, he can be said to have absolute authority in front of Zhuanghu, but in front of Zhang Yi, even if he can be Zhang Yi's grandfather with his age, he does not dare to grow up in front of Zhang Yi.
"The third uncle thinks that I, Zhang Yi, am it okay to be idle and have nothing to do to tease everyone?" Zhang Yi said with a smile: "I dare not say that it is more than that, planting medicinal herbs for a year is definitely more cost-effective than growing grain." I'll put the words here today, if that family thinks it's cost-effective to grow grain, they can go to the Viscount's Mansion after the autumn harvest to receive double the grain of last year, how about it? ”
PS: The New Year's bell is about to ring, we have gone from 2016 to 2017 together, and we have experienced a lot while being one year older, bitterness, pain, joy, happiness.... It's all in plain sight! For the sake of home, for the people we love the most, let all of us be proud and proud of ourselves, good! Here, change your face to greet everyone! In addition, look at the face change in the middle of the night and code words to come up with a little reward, how much at will, as long as you are happy!
