Chapter 225: Silent
Perhaps because they were racing against the heavens, or because they saw the great significance of this new farming tool to countless farmers all over the world, several craftsmen in Linbian Village showed the greatest enthusiasm and speed in making rice harvesters.
The fact is that farmers are the ones who really deal with the crops, and when they see the rice harvester, they even think about the multiple uses of this instrument.
It can be used not only to thresh rice, but also to thresh wheat, sorghum is not impossible, and millet is not impossible......
For farmers, time is the least important, often only one or two crops a year, and at the same time, time is the most precious for them, because a year's hard work is likely to be lost due to a rainstorm and a strong wind.
The rice thresher that Liu Xiu took out, this new type of agricultural tool is of great significance, and it can reduce the risks borne by the majority of farmers in a certain sense.
Food is always the main theme, and the most in the world is also a group of farmers, the grain can make people sit back and relax, rice threshing machine can speed up the harvesting of grain, reduce the risk of farmers, for farmers, this is the real treasure, because it can live countless people!
After the craftsmen figured out the structure and principle of the instrument, the rice threshing machine brought by Liu Xiu was immediately taken to the field.
The villagers were amazed by this efficiency, which was something they had never dared to think of, and at the same time they were surprised and curious, they all looked in the direction of the village, hoping that they could have one such device at home, and if there were, they would be able to take the food home as soon as possible.
The sky is getting more and more gloomy, so dull that it is depressing, and the rain will come down at any time, maybe the next moment, maybe the night, maybe tomorrow, no one can tell, no one can figure out God's thoughts.
The first thresher was built in less than an hour with the cooperation of several craftsmen, it was crude, but it worked normally, which gave the craftsmen great enthusiasm and confidence to devote themselves to the subsequent construction.
Liu Xiu is not a professional craftsman, but the skills shown by several craftsmen really surprised him, perhaps inspired by the original production of mosquito coils, they automatically divided labor to build in an assembly line way, especially under the premise of no unified size, the parts they each created can be tightly combined, if you don't see it with your own eyes, Liu Xiu won't believe it at all.
The main gear problem of the threshing machine, after Liu Xiu provided the mold idea, the blacksmiths built it quickly, they used unique mud and sand to make molds, melted molten iron poured into it and quickly formed, and after cooling, it was polished with a hand-cranked round whetstone, and the gears were created one by one, and there was no mistake in docking.
In this way, the rice thresher, a new type of farm tool brought by Liu Xiu, was made one by one, and Liu Xiu conservatively estimated that they could make at least thirty units for the rest of the day!
The old village chief has lived for decades and has almost become a fine, and when he saw this situation, he quickly ran to mobilize the villagers to make the next grain harvest arrangements.
One-third of the people in the village will cut down the rice and put it in the field one by one, and then use one-third of the people to specialize in the threshing of the rice, and the remaining one-third will be transported, so that with the cooperation of everyone, as long as the number of rice threshers can keep up, it is estimated that the grain of the whole village can be harvested in one or two days.
With a wave of the old man's hand, the old village chief said that everyone should not sleep tonight, harvest grain overnight, and have to do it for me with torches!
Tired is tired, but can take back all the crops, as for whether it can be done, it depends on God's will......
Seeing that things were on the right track, Liu Xiu did not bother the busy villagers, and quietly stepped aside, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he knew that even if he left this world after a hundred and ten years, rice harvesting must have spread to all parts of the world, that was the trace of his existence, and that was meaningful.
The sky is overcast, and the rainstorm will come down at any time but it just won't come, depressing and dull, making people feel irritable and anxious.
Liu Xiu rose to the sky silently, came to the top of the clouds and looked around.
Above the clouds he could see the sun and the blue sky, but beneath his feet, the rolling clouds stretched to the end of the horizon, and he flew in one direction for tens of thousands of miles without reaching the edge of the clouds, and finally he gave up and returned to the village of Linbian.
He didn't know how far the dark clouds had covered the land, but he had a hunch that once the rain fell, countless people would be affected, the grain in the fields would be washed away by the torrential rain, and the swollen river would wash away the fields and houses......
To be honest, when he thinks of the desperate picture of countless people, Liu Xiu's heart is not a taste, after all, he is a human being, not a cold-blooded animal, and he also has compassion, but he is also just a person, his strength is limited, and he can't be born by the people, and it would be good to even be able to manage the one-third of an acre around him.
Similarly, Liu Xiu is just a normal person, he will sigh and sigh for those who have suffered from disasters, but he will not blame himself in his heart like a saint, and he will die or live......
In Linbian Village, once the rice thresher was made, it was quickly taken to the field, and the rice was cut down by countless people, and the grains were sent home in bags and baskets, although the villagers were sweating like rain, but their faces were full of smiles.
It doesn't seem like there's going to be a wasted effort this year, if God gives me another night......
I don't know if it's really God moved with compassion, the rain just doesn't come down, the forest village at night is brightly lit, torches are everywhere, and people are stepping up to harvest food.
Such a movement naturally alarmed all parties, and some surrounding villagers came to inquire about the situation, and then learned that they had a new type of agricultural tool that could speed up the harvest of grain, so they rushed to harvest grain overnight.
So the villagers who came were excited, and their original despair ignited hope, and they begged the old village chief to help save them, and they also needed this kind of farming tool to harvest grain, so the farmers wept bitterly and prayed that the chief could not kneel.
If you are not a farmer, you can't understand the feeling that a peasant has no way to live without food, and the old village chief of Linbian Village is an out-and-out farmer, so he naturally understands everyone, so he asks Liu Xiu everywhere.
After all, the rice thresher is not his, he can't be the master, although he understands the villagers of various villages, he doesn't want to offend Liu Xiu because of this.
Liu Xiu did not leave, he had been silently observing on the side, and when the old village chief was looking for him, he appeared directly and told the village chief that everything was up to him.
After getting Liu Xiu's reply, the old village chief quickly replied to those people from other villages that they could not give them new agricultural tools, after all, their village still had to use them, and the crops in the field were confiscated, but each village could send craftsmen to learn how to build, and when the grain in the village was harvested, their threshers could still be lent to all parties.
Then all parties were excited, and after a thousand thanks, they went back overnight to call people to learn how to build new agricultural tools, and it was supposed to be a peaceful night, and a forest village was centered on the surrounding area, and the farther and farther places were no longer peaceful.
This is exactly what Liu Xiu wants to see, in fact, he wishes that the rice thresher would be popularized to every corner of the world immediately, he doesn't want anything in return, he can help countless simple farmers in the world, he will feel happy when he sees their smiles, and that's enough.
Wealth Liu Xiu once had, and there was a lot, so much so that countless people couldn't earn so much in ten lifetimes and hundreds of lifetimes, but so what, wealth to a certain point is just a cold number, he feels that it is very good now, and he can help people in need when he can, and he can also harvest happiness from it.
Of course, while reaping this happiness, Liu Xiu also gained many other things, but he didn't think about it deeply at the moment.
God is very face-saving, it didn't rain one night, and it didn't rain the next day.
At noon, the villagers of Linbian Village, who had worked for two days and one night, were almost paralyzed, but they were very happy, because all the food was recovered, although there was no sun exposure at the moment and the food could not be quickly dehydrated, but don't forget, Linbian Village is the source of making mosquito coils, and the original production of mosquito coils also encountered rainy days, so they built some baking houses, which can now be used to bake grain......
The production method of the rice thresher has spread, radiating to the surrounding area, and more and more villagers have benefited, using the thresher to quickly grab the grain, and at the same time they also remember a person in their hearts, the person who brought the new agricultural tool of the thresher.
Maybe the people behind haven't seen who brought this kind of farm tool, but they know that the person's name is Liu Xiu!
In three days, Liu Xiu walked a lot of places, the fields were full of busy farmers, and at the same time, there were rice threshers he brought, and the fields were harvested, sweat and smiles outlined the most simple and beautiful scenery in this season.
How far the thresher radiated and how many people it brought benefits, Liu Xiu didn't know, he was just an unknown little doctor in Qingliu Town.
After a few days of gloomy weather, a thunderclap resounded through the sky, lightning pierced the sky, and torrential rain poured down, covering the sky and the earth.
Standing at the door of the corner medical hall in Qingliu Town, Liu Xiu held a book in his hand and looked at the wind and rain outside, sighed slightly, and secretly said that this was all he could do.
At the same time, when the torrential rain poured down, countless families secretly rejoiced at the food in the house, looked at the thresher in the corner and were full of gratitude, while at the same time, more peasant families were crying in despair as they watched the torrential rain in the sky.
There are all kinds of living beings, and this is the ...... of the world
