After listening to Zhao Xu's question, this talented passer-by, not only did not reflect on his own serious shortcomings, but complained about Zhao Xu, and said to Zhao Xu with an unhappy face: "Your Majesty, aren't you embarrassed by Weichen, this kind of rural farmer will only care about things, Weichen, a person who is familiar with the teachings of the sage's books, how can he know this, Weichen's poetry and songs, and the subset of scriptures and history are all refined, Your Majesty, why don't you teach Weichen these, but test Weichen's messy and vulgar things, Didn't you say that you were deliberately embarrassing Weichen! ”

As soon as Zhao Xu heard the unreasonable words of this Xiucai passer-by, an evil fire came out of his heart, but for the sake of the emperor's demeanor, he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said to this Xiucai passer-by: "Xiucai passer-by A, you said that I am deliberately embarrassing you, so I will ask you one last question, if you become a household secretary in the future, how should you manage the people's livelihood and people's livelihood?" ”

"Needless to say, it is natural to collect taxes in two quarters every year, and there is also to manage the treasury for His Majesty, so why is it difficult. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Xiucai passerby A looked at Zhao Xu with great confusion, he really didn't know why this emperor was such a simple question for him

"It's over?!" Zhao Xu asked directly in confusion

"It's over!" Xiucai passerby A completely took it for granted

"Lao Liu, do you want this person." Zhao Xu turned his head and looked at Liu Shihai with a demented look and asked, and this Xiucai actually thought that he had passed the emperor's exam, and his face began to turn red with excitement

"Your Majesty, if you are like this, then you should kill Weichen directly." Liu Shihai also looked at Zhao Xu with the same demented face and replied

"Your Majesty, has Weichen passed your assessment? What kind of official are you going to be a good minister, haha. ”

You're a stupid x, you said your ma gave birth to such a thing as you, chicken feathers. Zhao Xu swallowed this scolding sentence that was about to break out of his mouth and put it back into his stomach, and then said expressionlessly to the Xiucai passerby in front of him: "If you are a scholar of the household department, but you don't know the agricultural time, how can you guide the people of the world to farm and produce?" You don't know the amount of yield per mu, how do you organize agricultural taxes? You don't know how to dry and store grain after harvesting, and how you can hoard grain and grass for war and disaster? If you become an official in the future, how can you be worthy of the black veil on your head, and how can you be worthy of the toiling people who pay taxes to support you? Officials, this person's fame is removed, and he will not be admitted forever, where is the imperial guard, and I will throw this person off the stage. ”

Zhao Xu didn't even look at the person who was set up by the two imperial guards and threw off the stage to show off the passerby, but instead greeted an old farmer who came up with a smile: "Hello old man." ”

"Oh, Your Majesty, this is unacceptable, how can you be courteous to me, a pariah." The old farmer saw Zhao Xu greeting him, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly said to Zhao Xu who knelt on the ground and said in a panic

Zhao Xu stretched out his hand to the old farmer and said, "The old man, please get up quickly, I don't know what the old man is going to say to me when he comes to the stage?" ”

"Your Majesty, my lords, the old man has no knowledge and has been farming all his life, but the old man made a wheat-harvesting thing by himself a few years ago, and I don't know if the court can use it, so I will show it to Your Majesty and all the great masters today." The old farmer said a little nervously

"Don't be nervous, old man, you can bring what you said to me and I will take a look at it with all the adults, if you do it well, I will be rewarded."

"The old man doesn't dare to ask for His Majesty's reward, so I'll take that guy's business." As he spoke, the old farmer beckoned his sons and grandsons to carry up the larger creature he had invented

After Zhao Xu saw this machine, he instantly felt that his eyes were bright, this is a wooden structure machine similar to the head of a single harvester in later generations, the rectangular thick wooden board is made into a jagged shape, which is inlaid with two layers of cutters that are sharpened like blades, the rear of the two layers of cutters are inlaid with gears, and the two layers of cutters are connected together by fixed iron bolts, and the person who operates the machine pushes the tools slowly forward, and keeps pulling the rope to drive the gears, so that the two layers of cutters that are tightly attached to each other continue to shrink. In this way, it plays the role of cutting, so that the farmers can harvest the wheat and rice at a very fast speed, and the people behind only need to collect the wheat and rice that have been cut to the ground and bundle them into bundles

And this wooden structure machinery with simple workmanship, but contains great wisdom, also deeply attracted the eyes of Liu Shihai and Xu Liang, even Chu Luli, who was standing under the stage to watch the excitement, ran to the stage regardless of his identity, and began to study this harvesting machinery with Zhao Xu, Liu Shihai, and Xu Liang

"If this machine is connected to the ploughing bicycle invented by Han Qing, I am afraid that the speed of harvesting crops will be greatly improved again." Liu Shihai took the lead in saying

"But the winch used to advance the plough bike is used to break the soil, and the plough that is just erected behind it is good to say that it can be raised, but if the winch used to break the soil is not improved, then the front head will be harvested, and then the winch will follow, then the crops that have been cut will be all crushed and buried in the ground, what is the point of such a harvest." Chu Luli and Liu Shihai argued

"Xu Liang, what do you think?" Zhao Xu turned his head and asked his Ministry of Works

"This farm tool is very simple to make, and the connection is relatively simple, and the problem you are talking about, as long as the forward winching wheel is canceled and other wheels are installed on both sides, there will be no such thing as you say." Xu Liang said

"It's true, but round wheels are easy to slip in the ridges." Chu Luli said

"The wheels are clad in iron, and the wheel nails are added." Zhao Xu looked at the harvesting tools in front of him and said

"But the spike is a weapon used in the chariot, and if it is added to this agricultural implement, it may injure the innocent." Liu Shihai said with some concern

"Make the wheel nails shorter, thicker, and dull the head, Xu Liang, can you do it?" Zhao Xu said

"Feasible." It's just these two simple words, but it contains Xu Liang's strong confidence in himself
