Blacksmith Zhang has never built a waterwheel, but the craftsmen are very close to the touch, and as long as they have drawings, they can roughly estimate the specific appearance of the object they will build, which requires great imagination and a lot of experience.

There is no doubt that Blacksmith Zhang is a qualified craftsman, and the drawings are in hand, and it didn't take long for him to see the key, "My lord, in my opinion, the most important thing about this waterwheel is these long shafts, and the materials must be hard and wear-resistant, otherwise, the shafts will have to be changed in a few days."

Wang Teng smiled: "That's right, what can you do?" ”

Blacksmith Zhang looked at the pipe of the fire gun and said, "I want to try the iron pipe, if it really doesn't work, I will change the wooden shaft."

Wang Teng bowed slightly, "Let it go, what you need, just open your mouth, there are five hundred taels of silver in the treasury for your use."

The craftsmen have a heart of exploration in their bones, and they can build a waterwheel, Zhang Blacksmith is very excited, "Don't worry, my lord, I will customize it, but I am afraid that this fire gun will be delayed."

"It's okay, build a waterwheel first, and don't be in a hurry about the firecracker"

Blacksmith Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, there are only dozens of craftsmen in the craftsman camp, if you take care of both sides, it is very likely that you can't take care of both sides, and now that Wang Teng has spoken, he has also gotten rid of the worries of the craftsman camp.

To build a waterwheel, Wang Teng already had an idea, "I have prepared the wood, it is all the old wood of Dingjiazhuang, whether to make a shaft or a fan blade is at your disposal, as long as you can make a waterwheel, everything is easy to say." ”

It can be seen that Wang Teng attaches great importance to this waterwheel.

Blacksmith Zhang bowed his head heavily, "Don't worry, my lord." Nothing will be wrong".

It is comfortable to talk to smart people, Wang Teng laughed: "That's good."

The location of the waterwheel has been chosen, just three miles down the stone ladder mountain, where there are several dry ditches to facilitate the diversion of water.

Under Wang Teng's orders, Guangling's soldiers soon had one more job. In addition to training, they need to clean up the silt and build dams.

In the past, the soldiers ate and drank spicy food, and they had long wanted to repay Wang Teng, but now they have no complaints after listening to the order.

Without dams, the gentle river water is difficult to provide enough water to drive.

Of course, building a dam is not a difficult task compared to the construction of an aqueduct.

Although there are a few ditches from previous years, it is not easy to renovate them.

First of all, the dry ditches should be deepened and widened. If possible, also lay bluestone on both sides of the aqueduct to ensure that the canal is not clogged with mud.

Most of the soldiers were from common people's backgrounds, and he understood the importance of ditches.

Now that I heard that it was repaired by Lord Wang, the soldiers were full of strength, performing their duties, and full of energy, and some of them were busy transporting stones. Some people were digging the river, and many villagers who had received Wang Teng's favor also joined the ditch digging project with tools.

With hundreds of villagers joining. The dredging project progressed very quickly, which greatly surprised Wang Teng.

The project under the stone ladder mountain is in full swing, and naturally it can't hide from people like Fei Qing and Liu Wenyuan.

"Does Wang Teng want to intercept the dam and store water? If this is the case, it must not succeed, otherwise the thousands of acres of fertile land in Guangling will be finished."

Liu Wenyuan had been to Shiti Mountain, and he was very calm, "It's okay." The barren fields under Shiti Mountain are higher than the Hulu River, and even if Wang Teng builds a dam, it will not help, and the water will flow to a lower place."

Fei Qing was overjoyed, "Oh? Really? ”

"If you don't feel at ease, send someone to see it in a few days."

After all, it is a major event involving thousands of acres of fertile land. Fei Qing didn't dare to slack off, "I should be like this, I should be like this."

In the first month of the eighth year of Chongzhen, after more than ten days of waiting, Blacksmith Zhang finally built a waterwheel.

During this period, the details of the waterwheel were modified several times to ensure that they could be used normally before being put together.

The most critical bearing part of the waterwheel is made of iron pipes, and the heavy iron pipes cost more than 100 catties of fine iron.

On the day of the trial of the waterwheel, many villagers rushed to hear the news, and some time ago Wang Teng dug a ditch, and many villagers secretly speculated.

Now such a big movement under the mountain naturally attracts countless people to watch.

It's just, can something so big really move?

The villagers in Dinghe Fort were excited, if this waterwheel could really turn over the water and irrigate the land, the 600 acres of dry land under Wang Teng's name would be turned into a high-quality paddy field.

After all, it was the first trial, and there was a certain risk, Huang Degong and others did not let Wang Teng take the risk, so the errand of the trial water wheel that opened the gate and released the water still fell to Blacksmith Zhang.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, before the blacksmith Zhang came to the waterwheel, he lifted the gate by the river trough, "boom, boom", and the flowing river water began to hit the wheel blades of the waterwheel.

"It's moving, it's moving, the waterwheel is moving", I don't know who it was, and the anomaly was discovered at the first time.

No one blamed the daredevil, for all eyes were drawn to the watermill that was turning faster and faster.

The three-foot tall waterwheel is getting faster and faster under the impact of the current, and the wooden tubes on the wheel blades pour the river water into the canal, one tube after another.

The clear water of the river is jubilant in the dry aqueduct.

Blacksmith Zhang almost burst into tears, "It's done, it's finally done!" ”

These days, the pressure on the craftsman camp is huge, Wang Teng can provide the convenience within his ability, if the craftsman camp can't succeed, it will become a joke.

Fortunately, the hard work paid off, and the waterwheel could be used.

The villagers of Dinghe Fort cheered, Wang Teng had promised that as long as the barren land became fertile land, it would be rented to them for cultivation, which was a great joy!

The fast-turning waterwheel carries the hope of all!

More than a dozen craftsmen from the craftsman battalion puffed out their chests proudly.

This waterwheel can be said to be a masterpiece of creating wealth and longevity, and they, the group of craftsmen who made the waterwheel, will also go down in history.

In the crowd, the suspicious people were stunned, they did not expect that the stupid-looking wooden cart could actually lead water into the canal, and it did not require human and animal power.

This is the creation of heaven and earth, since ancient times, Guangling has never had such a thing, no, you must quickly pass Bingxian Zun, Wang Teng created a waterwheel, this is terrible news!

At this time, the river water in the canal has flowed far away, according to this scale, when the day of ploughing, the fields on both sides of the canal can use the river water.

The most torturous time has passed, and from this point of view, there is no problem with the waterwheel.

Wang Teng breathed a sigh of relief, he ordered that each craftsman be rewarded consistently, and then specially sent ten soldiers to be stationed here to prevent anyone from stealing and destroying the waterwheel.

The waterwheel is Wang Teng's killer weapon for turning defeat into victory, and he expects this thing to bring benefits, of course, he can't tolerate any degree of accidents.

[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, and it must be better! (To be continued.) )
