"Pillar, pillar, how is your house?"

"Uncle, at first, be careful, I'm busy ......"

"Ergou, Ergou, hurry up, it's going to rain, what are you carrying a bundle of rice ink? Haven't eaten? ”

"Uncle, have you forgotten that my foot was broken the day before yesterday? Isn't it like I'm not going fast, don't rush don't rush, can't I hurry up......"

"Luo Zhang, you said that you have a big belly and go down to something, hurry up and go home and stay for me, is your family murdering you again? It's okay, I'll go to your house to smoke him at night, but it's the other way around, and my daughter-in-law doesn't pity having such a big belly."

"Village chief, it's nothing, I'm not in a hurry, I just went to the field to take a look, it's okay, you see, I didn't take anything, besides, walking around more is also good for the children."

"Those two kids over there, yes, just the two of you, stop playing with the mud, go and help, what do you see, do you think I don't dare to hit you? There is no one in the village who I dare not smoke! ”

"Wow Wow Wow ......"

At the entrance of Linbian Village, the old village chief was in a hurry with a cane, and he had to ask a few words when he met someone.

The weather is not good, it is likely to rain heavily, but the crops in the village have not returned, he is too old to go to the ground, he can only stare dryly, and his mouth is almost blistering.

A villager who walked over carrying a bundle of rice stopped and turned around and asked him, "Uncle, do you want to collect the mosquito coils drying in the village?" If it rains, it'll be all in the soup."

"When are you still thinking about mosquito coils? Now the most important thing is to take back the crops in the field, do you hear? The old village chief glared angrily.

The villager touched a handful of sweat and said: "But mosquito coils are also very important, a lot of money, especially one of the mosquito coils, which is set by the Liu family shop in the town, with mosquito coils with blue and blue flowers, and a plate of forty copper plates!" ”

"Money, money, money, are you in the eye of money? After only a few good days, you forgot your roots? Do you remember the days when you couldn't eat? Mosquito coils can be made at any time, but what about crops? Once the rainstorm comes, the year's work will be in vain, you know, what are you still doing in a daze, go get busy," the old village chief roared as if he was going to beat someone, waving his cane.

The villager didn't dare to answer, so he could only carry the rice ashes and leave.

There was no one around, the old village chief patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the sky with a sad face, and saw a young man out of the corner of his eye, and suddenly said loudly: "Then who is it, what are you wandering around, haven't you been smoked?" Hurry up and help...... Eh, Mr. Liu, why did you come to the village, why didn't you say it in advance......"

After shouting a few words, the old village chief, whose eyes were not too good, saw that it was Liu Xiu, and suddenly changed his tone and smiled gently.

Liu Xiu walked over and hugged him and said, "Old village chief, are you okay?" I'm here to see that the weather is not good, come to see how the crops are harvesting in the village, and now that the farming is busy, how dare I disturb everyone"

"What to bother and not bother, Mr. Liu, you have a great grace to our village, if you come, it is not too much to welcome the whole village, as for the crops, this is no way, see when it rains, how much can be snatched back, our village is okay, although the mosquito coil business has been robbed a lot, but many people have recognized the time-honored mosquito coils in our village, but the impact is not great, how much the crops are recovered does not affect the livelihood, but it is difficult to say in other places, hey, a rainstorm, I don't know how many people will suffer." Facing Liu Xiu, the old village chief said in a different tone, although he was still a little sad, he was not as anxious as before, in short, just one word, and his heart was very stable.

Nodding slightly, Liu Xiu looked at the villagers who were sweating and busy in the fields in the distance and said: "That's fine, but the crops in the field are always the fruits of a year's hard work, and it's not a happy thing to be lost."

"What can be done about this, there are so many people in the village, it will take at least half a month for the crops of previous years to be recovered, and now it will rain heavily at any time, so let everyone obey the fate of heaven" The old village chief smiled bitterly.

Hearing him say this, Liu Xiu said in a timely manner: "Old village chief, I have a tool that can greatly improve the harvesting speed of rice, in terms of efficiency, it is ten times higher than you cut the rice and drop the particles a little bit like you now, but three or five times should still be there, and it is easy to use, I don't know if you want to try it?" ”

Liu Xiu is talking about a human-driven rice harvester, which he made last year, and used it for two years of rice harvesting, and the efficiency is naturally much faster than that of the villagers.

If the weather is bad today, there may be heavy rain at any time, and he proposed it in a timely manner, which can help the villagers harvest rice faster, and secondly, his promotion plan for farm tools and agricultural planting can also be carried out quietly.

Regarding the promotion of these things, Liu Xiu is ready to imperceptibly integrate into the world, not ready to make a big splash, Linbian Village is a point, a little bit of promotion, but as long as it is a good thing, others will naturally learn it when they see the benefits and popularize it, and there is no need for Liu Xiu to spend any effort and leave to promote, just like the mosquito coil that year.

People in this world are not stupid, but they are limited by their vision and cognition, of course good things can be seen, and manpower-driven rice harvesters can greatly improve efficiency, and people will quickly spread the benefits all over the world when they see them.

Hearing Liu Xiu say that there was something that could improve harvesting efficiency, the old village chief was stunned for a moment, not that he didn't believe it, after all, Liu Xiu brought them too many surprises, but some couldn't react.

Taking a deep breath, the old village chief looked at Liu Xiu and asked seriously, "Does Mr. Liu really have such a thing?" ”

"Well, there is, but there is only one finished product, of course, it is not difficult to make, with the cooperation of skilled carpenters and blacksmiths, a lot can be built in a day, the most critical of which is two sets of gears, it is difficult to build, after all, it needs to be finely run-in, but I already have a solution, that is, casting mold pouring, after this problem is solved, the others are not a problem" Liu Xiu thought about it and replied.

If you want to promote the rice harvester, Liu Xiu has of course thought about the key to it, and has thought of the solution.

When the old village chief heard Liu Xiu say this, the surprise and excitement in his heart were overflowing, he looked at Liu Xiu with burning eyes, and his voice trembled a little: "There is such a thing, of course we are willing to try, this is a great thing, for many years, the crops have been ripe, a rainstorm and a hail have fallen into nothing, I don't know how many people have starved to death, and there are not a few people who hang themselves in despair, if there is such a thing earlier......"

Liu Xiu interrupted the incoherent old village chief and said, "Since everyone is willing to try, then I will go and bring the finished product, and you can find a few blacksmiths and carpenters in the village, and then quickly make it and put it into use, what do you think?" ”

"Well, there are carpenters and blacksmiths in the village, I'm going to find them, we have to make them as soon as possible, and I can leave everything else alone!" Although he was interrupted, the old village chief was not annoyed at all, but left in a hurry with a word, and his actions did not match his age at all.

Liu Xiu also immediately started to go back to the mountain, ordinary people need about half a month to go back and forth, he came back in less than ten minutes, this is still on the premise of carrying the rice harvester, after all, no matter how fast the speed is, the harvester will have to fall apart halfway.

When Liu Xiu came to the village with the rice harvester, the old village chief was already waiting with a few blacksmiths and carpenters, not only did they bring all the things, but also the materials were ready, and they didn't know how the old village chief urged them in such a short time.

In front of the big guy, Liu Xiu said to the rice harvester: "This is this thing, it's very simple to use, you see ......"

Saying that, Liu Xiu demonstrated again, using the pedal to teach to step on the pedal, the pedal drives the gear to rotate, the wheel drives the drum to rotate, and the N-shaped iron nails on the drum can stir off the particles on the rice.

It didn't take much effort, a few feet down, and the grains on the paddy were clean, and all the grains fell into the bucket of the harvester.

During the demonstration, the old village chief and several craftsmen widened their eyes, and they were all excited after watching it, the efficiency of this harvester was ten times faster than before, and Liu Xiu had conservatively estimated it before.

"This thing...... This thing is simply a gift from God to the farmers of the world, no, it is Mr. Liu's gift to the farmers of the world, with this thing, the future food can be quickly taken back home, act quickly, and are not afraid of a rainstorm that will make a year's work go to waste......" The old village chief finally said with excitement in his eyes, and reached out to touch the harvester, the action was so gentle, for fear that it would be broken.

Interrupting him with a slight cough, Liu Xiu said: "Old village chief, now is not the time to be excited, but how to make it and distribute it to the villagers, the situation is urgent, after all, the rainstorm will come down at any time."

"Oh yes, make it, what, iron pillars, bolts, come here, see if you can make it? Mr. Liu is here, so if you don't understand, ask him" The old village chief was startled, and immediately shouted anxiously at a few craftsmen on the side.

Several craftsmen came up, all of them were years of craftsmanship, and with the finished product in front of them, you can understand it after a little pondering.

One of the blacksmiths hesitated: "The others are okay, but these two gears are not easy to get, one tool needs two pairs, and if I make it myself, I can only get two pairs a day."

"I have already considered this problem, using a mold, pouring the molten iron into the mold to pour and form, and then a little grinding is almost the same, so that it can also be standard, and the subsequent replacement is also simple," Liu Xiu explained with a smile.

After his reminder, the blacksmith understood in seconds, and immediately promised: "In this way, it will not be a problem for me to build ten pairs of gears in a day, and it will be faster after I am familiar with it!" ”

"Then it's no problem, let's start next" Liu Xiu nodded.

Looking at the busy craftsmen, Liu Xiuxin said that this is just the beginning, and there will be agricultural tools to improve agricultural production in the future, and even planting methods to increase yield......
