Chapter 44 If a worker wants to do a good job, he must sharpen his tools
As a result of hand-sowing, Fan Jingjing felt that it was best to get out the agricultural auxiliary tools and start planting again.
With and without tools, the efficiency is really much worse.
Yesterday I was busy all day, but I only turned over a small piece of field, less than half an acre, and planted seeds, and then watered them.
Water also has to be brought from afar, which is really inefficient.
Fan Jingjing asked Niu Shijin, the nearby trees can be cut if they want to, as long as they don't cut a large area at a time, so that the trees can sprout and grow again in the place, it doesn't matter.
The people of the Tang Dynasty still had a strong concept of the environment, but as the number of people gradually increased, it was inevitable that they would fish with all their might.
The problem is wooden tools, and if there are enough tools, she can do it herself.
But if she buys a ready-made iron tool on the street, I don't know if she has enough money on her.
Iron tools were still a kind of handicraft industry in the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, iron is a tube product, and it is not easy for blacksmiths to get iron, and it needs to be approved.
Iron tools are bought on the street and are estimated to be very expensive.
So she thought of the Niu family and the ginger blacksmith.
She wanted to have an exchange of interests with the ginger blacksmith.
Fan Jingjing knew that Blacksmith Jiang was interested in her suitcase, and when he followed behind, his eyes were not on her at all, but on the suitcase.
Even Jiang Blacksmith was more interested in the inside of the suitcase, but Fan Jingjing could make Jiang Blacksmith's suitcase internal structure, but would not let him see the contents of the luggage.
Blacksmith Jiang is undoubtedly interested in creating new, practical utensils, and if she helps him draw a few designs and let him build them, it will probably haunt him.
Of course, Fan Jingjing will not give it to him for nothing, she will work with him to make the finished product, as well as the profit of creating the finished product. In fact, it is okay for the blacksmith to not give her profits, as long as she can give her the finished product for free.
In this era when there is no principle of secrecy and wisdom belongs to the whole people, it is too simple for these simple objects to be learned.
She knew that Blacksmith Jiang didn't talk about intellectual property rights.
Fan Jingjing is not prepared to make money with objects that are easy to imitate, not to mention that these simple farm tools, if they can be widely distributed in the fields of Guanzhong, will make the farmers in the fields of Guanzhong less laborious.
Fan Jingjing guessed that the farmers could not afford to buy these farm tools, and that they had to be tenant farmers in the families of the wealthy to get the distribution from the master.
If you want to make it available to ordinary people, you can only persuade the emperor to come forward to organize a peasant association, let the peasant association buy it, let the peasants use it for free, or pay some millet to use.
In fact, when he went to the farmland to cultivate, Fan Jingjing knew that as he said later, the Tang Dynasty already had waterwheels everywhere, and it was in a relatively late period.
Also, the curved plough has not yet been finalized.
Serfs may have used similar products of curved ploughs, but most of the peasants only used plows to turn the soil.
Animal power has not yet prevailed. Or people from relatively good families can raise farm animals.
It is necessary for the Tang Dynasty to stabilize and be in a prosperous situation in order to be able to widely develop agricultural tools among the people!
At this point in time, the people who use the curved plow, just like the Maserati in the automobile world, not everyone can drive.
The potato incident made Fan Jingjing insecure about the royal family, or in other words, broke her fantasy of crossing over.
In the few novels she read, it was clear that it was very simple for a woman to have a relationship with the palace.
With the times, there is no soaring, and because you can eat a chicken leg and lose a chicken leg.
When you sacrifice the potatoes, you end up tied to the potatoes, and you can't find a place to reclaim the wasteland and return to your ideal farming career.
There are no special benefits, and she doesn't get the household registration of her dreams, which makes her feel very depressed.
In this era, is it so difficult to get a household registration? Could it be that she crossed the wrong place and shouldn't have come to Chang'an.
Chang'an is Kyoto, and in the future, it seems that it will be difficult to obtain a household registration in the capital.
Fan Jingjing would rather exchange benefits with Jiang Blacksmith.
"If you want to see him, you can come to my house, and the Niu family will not stop you from entering.
What's more, the blacksmith Jiang is very welcome for you to find him.
He would have wanted to see if there was anything more magical in your suitcase.
But he thought that people should not be too greedy, first study the structure of the suitcase, maybe they can invent something that can be used, and it is estimated that he has inspiration, so he hurried back, and now he is probably busy. ”
