Chapter 156: Increasing the efficiency of the pulley system

Su Baiya leaned against the door of the office, listening to the village chief's passionate speech outside the company.

No wonder the village chief took the initiative to come to her today to discuss the construction of the dam, it turned out that he had made all preparations a long time ago, and it seemed that the village chief was not as easy to deal with as she believed.

However, this time it is not without gains, at least let the village chief understand that she is not so easy to handle, and she will always be a little more restrained in the future.

After such a delay, half of February had passed, and the construction of the dam had to be put on the agenda.

The villagers were highly motivated and waited outside the company early.

Su Baiya divided the villagers who worked with Wu Xian and Ou Jian.

Wu Xian was responsible for bringing more than 20 people to dig the ditch, and Ou Jian took 10 people to dig the collecting pool.

Su Baiya took ten people to the mouth of the river that had been surveyed in advance and used a weighing instrument to mark the excavation range.

"This is the location, let's start digging."

Zhou Daniu spit twice on the palm of his hand, picked up the hoe and dug it and said, "Mr. Su, look at it, if we can't do anything else, we will have great strength, and we will be able to dig out this land soon." ”

Su Baiya found a piece of bluestone and sat down, looking at the villagers who were working hard, and observed that there was really no one who was lazy for a while.

Another benefit of the shutdown was that the villagers understood that it was in their own interests to repair the canal, not to mention that they could receive their wages.

Since it is for himself, how can he be lazy.

Excavation work is in full swing.

At the same time, Boss Su returned to Zhuwo Village and brought news that the Niu family had pleaded guilty and sentenced him to one of the five sentences in prison and five years in prison.

The villagers did not pay attention to the Niu family, and they did not know what the Niu family had done until this time, and they sighed for a while.

Some people felt that the Niu family should be severely punished for their boldness, and some people felt that although the Niu family harbored evil intentions, it did not cause any trouble in the end, so they were sentenced to five years in prison by the government for a family of three.

If it is really the person who is in charge, he cannot be offended.

Of course, the Niu family was sentenced so severely, and it did have something to do with Boss Su.

However, in Boss Su's opinion, it is not too much to dare to hit his daughter's attention, even if he kills him.

The Niu family has not had a good time in prison these days, and they have been tortured.

And the maid bought by the Niu family had nowhere to go, Su Baiya thought that the Li family had always felt that dealing with housework was troublesome, and the taste of cooking was indeed too ordinary, so she stayed.

...

After three days, the excavation of the river was completed smoothly according to the requirements, and the excavated soil was piled up in a small forest not far away, and most of the long stones had been transported to the side of the river dam and piled up.

According to the plan, the height of the dam gate lifting wall should be at least three meters above, and the weight of a piece of stone is about 100 catties, and it is really difficult to carry the stone to a height of three meters by manpower.

In addition, the bottom of the dam is about three meters high from the river bank, and the soil around the river bank is extremely soft, and it is not safe to use ordinary lifting methods.

If you open a road and go down manually, it is not safe to step on the soft soil with a hundred-pound stone on your back.

The problem was how to transport the stone to a height of three meters and a low place three meters down.

Su Baiya adheres to the principle of safety first and people-oriented, and any possibility of danger must be eliminated.

"Mr. Su, why don't we try it, although this stone is heavy, the two of us can just carry it."

The villagers were eager to try, and it was not a big problem for them to pick up about fifty catties of goods by one person.

"When I'm thinking about it, I've probably already thought of a way, stop for two days, wait for me to prepare everything I need before I start work, and you can go dig the ditch for the time being." Su Baiya shook her head and vetoed.

Putting a rope on a stone and then putting a rope on a flat pole seems to be a good method.

But if one of them has an accident on the soft soil, the person walking in front is in danger.

However, if four people carry a piece of bluestone, there is no such problem, but in this way, the efficiency is very low, and the villagers can work for a day and receive a day's wages.

Su Baiya's idea is to use the wheel change system, which can be used not only when placing the stone at present, but also when the dam gate is placed in the future.

The composition of the pulley is that the fixed pulley has been moved, and due to the current level of technology, it can only be made of hardwood.

The effect is much worse than the mechanical mixed wheel set made by industrial machines in later generations, but there is no need to lift a behemoth that is easy to lift a few times, and it is more than enough to deal with a hundred pounds of stones or dam gates.

Su Baiya returned to Qulan Town, drew a rough sketch and handed it to the carpenter, and then explained the principle of work.

After several modifications, the pulley came out, and after a simple trial, the results were not bad.

Then he returned to the dam and instructed the villagers to erect two four-meter-long wooden stakes on both sides of the dam and drive them into the soil, and four logs were fixed around the stakes for support.

Then he put a stick on top of the two stakes, hung the pulley on top of the stick, and strung the rope to start work again.

With the help of pulleys, the project progressed quickly, and it took only one day to complete the construction of the stones under the river bank and the lifting wall.

At the same time, the excavation of the collection pond has also come to an end, and more than 20 villagers have joined the team to dig the ditch.

With the joint efforts of many people and the high enthusiasm of the villagers, it took less than ten days to complete all the work.

All that's left is to wait for the dam gate to be made and put in place.

It's almost March.

The security department, down jackets, and mask departments resumed work.

Because the market response of down jackets is not bad, Su Baiya plans to continue the production of down jackets until next year's winter.

When it comes to the winter of the next year, the surrounding cities will be full of down jacket branches.

She is confident that once the mask is listed in the store, the sales will not be bad, so when the three types of masks reach a certain stock, she will launch them in the store at the same time.

In order to avoid running out of stock as much as possible, the mask department is speeding up the production process.

And Su Baiya took a break for a while, so she returned to the down jacket shop in Qulan Town to sell goods to pass the time, perhaps because the temperature gradually warmed up, and the sales were not good.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Su Baiya received an invitation.

The invitation was sent by Ruan Chengyun to his buddy, and the content was that he was going to celebrate his twentieth birthday, and the day was just three days later, and he invited her to participate.
