Chapter 36: The Fight (2)
At the invitation of Yan Gong, a senior on the road of opportunity announced the beginning of the competition. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
At this moment, the crowd around them knew that what was going to happen here was a competition to bet on status and dignity!
The people who were excited in an instant forgot even the warnings of the city guards, shouting, coaxing, and supporting voices one after another, if it weren't for Liu Chan's command, the city guards grabbed a few people who took the lead in "enlivening the atmosphere", but I am afraid that the scene is at risk of getting out of control.
In the eyes of these people, there is no such thing as a strange skill, on the contrary, the craftsmen who can make all kinds of convenient equipment for their lives are really popular.
When several thorns were caught, the harsh laws imposed by Liu Bei since he entered Sichuan made people wake up and calm down. And these people, it is estimated that they will not be pleased, and they may be convicted of a felony of gathering a crowd to make trouble, and they will suffer a lot in prison.
Yan Gong stood up first, and there were several apprentices standing behind him, and he felt like a famous family.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to invite you all this time, firstly, for this competition, and for the second point," he paused for a moment, taking in the doubts on the faces of some of those people, "but he wants to take this opportunity to establish an orthodox reputation for my Yan family!" ”
Sure of Orthodoxy? Liu Chan was a little puzzled, Ma Jun was in the partition at the moment, and no one could ask, so he had to quietly continue his next sentence with this Yan Gong who had a lot of flowers and intestines.
But he doesn't understand, it doesn't mean that the celebrities in the venue don't understand.
Before Yan Gong's words fell, an old man who was old but had a very tough body stood up, "Yan Gong's nephew, I have been friends with your father for many years, how can I not know that it has always been your father's wish to be sure of orthodoxy, but if you don't like it, your Yan family's craftsmanship is really not enough." ”
Yan Gong's age is about his early forties, and the old man in front of him is actually calling his nephew, it seems that he is estimated to be seventy or eighty, but from the outside, Liu Chan only sees forty or fifty years old.
"It's not just a health regimen but also a ......"
Soon, many people echoed the words of this old-timer, obviously, they all complained about Yan Gong's non-conformist approach.
For these so-called old-timers of the same way, Yan Gong sneered disdainfully in his heart. What craftsmanship is not enough, in fact, it is the business of this Yizhou machine, most of which are concentrated in these hands, once there is a new door to the top, I am afraid that their interests will be diluted a lot.
However, he had expected this.
In the next second, another person from the famous house stood up.
"Senior Guo's words are wrong, Yan Gong can be invited into the house by Mr. Zhuge as a room manager, and the kung fu in his hands must not be bad, if such a character can't have an orthodox name, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous."
Liu Chan followed the voice and looked over, this person was still kind-faced, and he should be about the same age as Yan Gong, but if he looked closely, he had a sense of a falcon.
The old man who was called Guo's predecessor was stunned, he knew this talker, and he could be regarded as a master of this way, but it was rumored that this family had always been at odds with the Yan family, so why did he talk about it today?
Although he was puzzled, he didn't refute it after all, now the lord of Yizhou is the emperor's uncle Liu Bei, and Mr. Zhuge is his military advisor who can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person, even if he only borrows a name, they don't dare to offend.
However, for Yan's senses, he and the few people around him have all dropped to the freezing point, cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents, and it is not so easy to snatch money from them and buy and sell.
Seeing that no one objected anymore, Yan Gong nodded with satisfaction. However, he simply ignored the other side of the battle today, and in his opinion, winning was a matter of no suspense.
With a move of his hand, the apprentices behind him sank their waists at the same time, and the small high platform that originally seemed to be fixed in the field moved in front of everyone's eyes, and there was no noise of rubbing the ground.
Liu Chan saw that under the high platform, it was the same as a modern suitcase, equipped with a few rollers, although the skills were simple, but unexpectedly, it still ushered in the onlookers to applaud.
When it pushed the high platform to the middle position, the bracket above was clearly reflected in the eyes of all the celebrities.
If what you saw before was not very real, at this moment, it is spread out in front of you.
"This instrument is called the Ploughing Ox."
Farm cattle? Everyone present couldn't help but prick up their ears, even Guo Lao, who was unhappy, also calmed down.
seemed to be very satisfied with people's reactions, Yan Gong's voice unconsciously carried a trace of arrogance, but the things he took out could indeed give him arrogant capital.
"Ploughing cattle, as the name suggests, is like an old ox ploughing the land, driven by manpower, it can achieve the same effect as oxen ploughing without too much effort." After speaking, Yan Gong twisted a certain joint of the high platform, and under the lifting of the apprentices, the side of the high platform spread out and tiled, and the "ploughing cow" also fell smoothly on the ground.
A few other apprentices pushed a cart from the side, and dirt was piled up on it. When the soil was dumped on the ground and paved and compacted, Yan Gong personally pushed the "ploughing ox" equipment to the side of the artificially created "ploughing field".
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the "ploughing ox" did not take much effort to operate on the compacted solid soil under the impetus of Yan Gong, and through the control of several mechanisms, it was possible to repeatedly turn over one place.
The onlookers basically have a few acres of land in their homes, although they are tenanted to outsiders, but they are still very clear about these farm work, and when they see the effect of ploughing cattle, their eyes are about to glow.
Even Liu Chan was a little surprised by this instrument!
"Why have I never heard of such a ploughing tool at this time in the world?" There was a thoughtful look in his eyes, but it didn't take long for him to figure it out.
This device seems to be extremely powerful, but in fact it is not very practical.
Because, first, it is too expensive to build, and countless places need to be carefully constructed manually; The second is that many of the organs are extremely exquisite, if it is just a demonstration or viewing, it is fine, if it is really taken out to do farm work, it is estimated that it will become a pile of waste in a few days due to shocks and other reasons.
What is the most basic farming equipment?
is solid and durable. And the savings in terms of strength, although attractive, are not in the first consideration of those professional farmers!
The manpower and material resources to make such a machine, plus the maintenance of two heads in three days in the later stage, are estimated to be much more expensive than a cow!
