Chapter 52: A New Waterwheel
(Thanks to gxwang for the tip~~)
Meng Da's words were heard by Liu Feng word for word. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lu Bu? What is he alluding to? Say that I will end up with the same fate as those three slaves?
I......
Nothing like this can be allowed!!
Liu Feng's momentum around him increased sharply, making Meng Da's eyes, who were originally squinting, suddenly brighten.
He struck while the iron was hot and said: "Sometimes I think about it, if it weren't for Lu Bu's prestige in this world, how could he bring out the heroism of the two generals of Guan and Zhang, so that he can be regarded as a meritorious hero to our Shu Han." ”
This sentence is no less than oil poured on a blazing fire, and the fire that was originally controllable became a prairie fire in the blink of an eye!
"Phew!"
I saw Liu Feng stand up suddenly, slammed the cup in his hand out, and was so frightened that the guard who came up holding the wine jar loosened his hand, and with a few clanging sounds, the wine jar that he finally picked up fell clean.
The guard looked at Meng Da in panic, and the latter hurriedly waved his hand and motioned for him to go out.
At this time, Liu Feng fell into the abyss of anger in his heart. The tightness that was originally aggrieved in his heart was now transformed into endless anger under Meng Da's deliberate stimulation.
However, after a while, Meng Da's next sentence was like a basin of cold water poured down from the top of Liu Feng's head, making him sober up instantly.
"Lu Bu, in the end, he killed his two fathers-in-law, the lord was a little familiar with him before he rose, I don't know if the lord has asked about this matter."
After being stunned in place for a few breaths, Liu Feng's expression returned to his original drunken state without warning, and he slapped the table and said, "This wine is not good, a few more jars!" After drinking, it's time to go into battle and kill the enemy! ”
Meng Da immediately waved his hand, shouted a wine, waited until the wine was poured, drank it up with Liu Feng, and then said heroically: "Now that the wine has been drunk enough, General Feng, let's go to meet that Shen Tan Lao'er!" ”
"Let him know that our imperial uncle is powerful!"
……
Liu Chan got up early the next morning, not because the waterwheel made him worry more, but because he followed Huo Teng, who got up earlier, to go to the morning exercise.
After the qi and blood were fully mobilized and they felt refreshed, Ma Jun and Li Wei also came out of their other courtyards one after another and concentrated in the hall where they usually deliberated.
By the time we arrived after washing, everyone had already arrived, and there was no sign of being late.
Coughing lightly, Liu Chan stepped forward, looked at everyone and said: "The design of the new waterwheel also took a lot of effort, and after the completion of this work, the people involved in this project will each take a three-day vacation and take a fortune." They were no stranger to the novelty of the young master's words.
On the contrary, when they heard about the vacation, those who participated in the waterwheel project were excited, but they didn't seem to be touched at all. Presumably, this concept of "hard work makes money" has not been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Liu Chan secretly said in his heart: "When I find out that some people can get twice as much as this month, and some people can't even get half of it, these guys will probably really understand this system." ”
He shook his head and waved his hand.
"Let's go!"
Since the performance of the new waterwheel is to be reviewed, it is natural that this waterwheel is built next to the river. In order to ensure the confidentiality of the experiment, Liu Chan specially placed the test site in a remote place where basically no one had set foot in it, and also asked Huo Teng to send some trusted henchmen to guard it day and night.
"I've seen the young master." Huo Teng, who had been waiting here for a long time, stepped forward to salute and then stood aside and resumed his duties as his bodyguard.
When he walked to the waterwheel, Liu Chan broadcast the level to an open state, and then sat on a raised wooden seat, pedaling the pedal with his feet like a bicycle.
And in just a moment, the clear water from the river was washed up by the waterwheel channel with hydraulic power and manpower, and Liu Chan actually did not exert much strength.
Seeing this scene, the Mo family people who did not participate in this matter, their eyes were about to widen, where had they seen such a magical artifact, Bi Lan's waterwheel they had seen it in the classics in the door, but the manpower required was much greater than this, how could the young master be so relaxed and freehand, stretching his waist while beating the water up?!
All of a sudden, these guys all said they wanted to give it a try.
And those involved, except for Ma Jun, who already has a general demeanor and seems to be light-hearted, the others, even Li Wei, are a little excited. After they completed the orders for those textile machines in Chengdu, they rushed to Wuyang, and started the research of the new waterwheel non-stop, and even listened to several lessons from the young master, in order to, isn't it at this moment, the utensils they constructed with their own hands can shine, attract outsiders to applaud, peers are amazed? !
And now, they do!
"Isn't it nice that you have done a good job, and that through your labor and wisdom, you can benefit the world?" Liu Chan, who had withdrawn, looked at the few people around him with proud and excited expressions, and said with a smile, his voice was relaxed and a touch of nostalgia.
Hearing Liu Chan's praise, everyone cheered in unison, and I don't know when it started, compared to the approval of others, getting Liu Chan's praise and recognition has become the thing they most desire in their hearts.
Liu Chan took a deep breath, and the natural fragrance coupled with the world and these people made him feel attached and cherished.
"Waterwheel, this is just the beginning, I want to make the world, under my hands, full of vitality......"
"Perhaps, it is my responsibility to let this society have a shadow of the future."
……
The three-day holiday is only a privilege for some people, while many more need to continue to fight for the matter at hand.
For example, Zhongshu.
At this time, he was walking on the official road outside Wuyang City, and the continuous farmland on both sides of the road was a little invisible.
What he was wearing was no longer a subordinate costume, but a ranger costume that was quite popular at this time, and from time to time he greeted the peasants working in the farmland on the roadside, and the topic was just polite words such as whether to eat or not, whether to be tired.
But if you really think that he is polite, then you are an elephant. You know, with these seemingly ordinary exchanges, I have a familiar relationship with the farmers in this area, not to mention for the time being, but more importantly, I have collected the recent quality of life of these farmers who work hard every day.
In terms of dietary arrangement, we can directly observe the recent income of their families, whether they are tired, reflect their physical state, and the daily farming time, plus the anecdotes of life that come out from the side, we can slightly get the living conditions and quality of life of these farmers around Wuyang City.
The task was given to him by Liu Chan, but the process was set by him after thinking about it himself. It's no wonder that Liu Chan always praised his "furrow in his chest" from time to time in front of Ding Xun, the old housekeeper who had already finished the affairs and finally came to Wuyang City.
