Chapter 10: The Butterfly Effect
The sky is bright and the day is new.
Early this morning, Zhou Lao Liu knocked on the door of Lu Renjia's room with wooden utensils: "Young General, I have prepared all these things you want, you can see if they meet your requirements." ”
Lu Renjia in his sleep was eating away at the world step by step, killing all directions, Zhou Laoliu's rough voice was really playful, and after a while, Lu Renjia turned over, his star eyes were hazy, he didn't know what to do, he wanted to raise his fist, but he felt uncomfortable and quieted down.
took a few deep breaths and said, "Uncle Zhou, it's so early, you come in directly, the house is unlocked." ”
Zhou Lao Liu walked awkwardly because he took too many things, and when he got to the house, he put down all the guys, looked at Lu Renjia cautiously, and said, "General, how do you see these things doing?" ”
Lu Renjia didn't speak, he looked at these objects carefully, and the more he looked at them, the more comfortable he became, so he couldn't wait to kiss Zhou Lao Liu, and said, "Uncle Zhou, it's done so well." ”
Windmills have existed since ancient times, according to legend, they were made by Jiang Ziya, and the device of the generator is also very simple, it is just a trivial matter for Zhou Laoliu, Zhou Laoliu heard the praise of the young general to himself, and he couldn't help blushing a little and said: "The young general feels satisfied, if there is nothing else, I will go down first!" ”
Lu Renjia was also a little troubled by this upright boy, and said: "Uncle Zhou, don't be busy yet, you and I will build this thing together, if there is anything that can't be done in the back, there will be no problem in finding you to modify it!" ”
The two packed up their belongings, called Zhang Niu again, and went to the river to assemble the water windmill.
Lu Renjia looked at the progress and thought: It seems that we have to put the generator cement thing behind, only when the windmill is built, and then we can make a simple machine using the power of water, and use the machine to make copper into wire, so that we can cut the magnetic inductance line.
Zhang Niu and Zhou Laoliu are worthy of skillful work, and Zhang Niu's objects are all made of mortise and tenon technology, and it is impossible to see that these objects are spelled out.
Zhou Lao Liu saw the continuous flow of water converging from the small river, and he felt a sense of accomplishment: "Young General, this object is completed?" The Major General's move can be regarded as a merit for all generations! ”
Zhang Niu didn't know why, when he saw this water source, he was very shocked, if he had this object a few years ago, he would not have participated in the Yellow Turban Army!
Although the windmill has existed since ancient times, but the water conservancy windmill is also a product of later generations, Lu Renjia did not focus on the water windmill, with Zhou Laoliu's praise, Lu Renjia felt a little fluttering: "Okay, don't make a fool of yourself, I'm still thinking about how to get the five baht money from the silk thread!" ”
When Zhang Niu and Zhou Lao Liu heard that the copper coin was made into silk thread, their expressions instantly became nervous: "Young General, why do you want to make such a good thing as a copper coin?" ”
Lu Renjia knew that these people took copper coins very seriously, so he naturally didn't dare to hurt them: "Well, in order for us to have enough to eat in the future, we really have to make this copper coin into a thread!" ”
Lu Renjia picked the bridge of his nose and looked at the two confused uncles.
Zhang Niu shook his head and muttered, "No, no!" ”
This made Lu Renjia's heart itch very much, and he felt that Zhang Niu might have a way: "Uncle Zhang, why don't you say it?" ”
Zhou Lao Liu also looked at Zhang Niu with Lu Renjia's voice, and was puzzled.
The river water is attracted by the water conservancy windmill, which converges into the river channel and forms a ditch in a low-lying area next to the river.
Seeing that Zhang Niu didn't react, Zhou Laoliu pulled Zhang Niu: "Brother Zhang, the young general asked you!" ”
Zhang Niu suddenly said excitedly: "Young General, uh, I said no, it's a copper coin that can be stretched into a thumb-thick silk thread, but at that time, it can't be connected with other copper coins at all!" ”
Lu Renjia thought for a while: "Manpower can't press the copper coin more finely?" ”
At this time, there was no perfusion method at all, and no matter what kind of iron tools were formed, they could only be shaped by hammering.
Zhang Niu waved a few times and lowered his head: "Well, the young general is right, there is really no way to do it with manpower." ”
When Lu Renjia heard this, he smiled and thought: It seems that Zhang Niu should be able to strike iron, but he didn't expect that there were so many talented craftsmen around him.
In fact, it is also normal, because in ancient times, in order to produce, basically every old peasant had to master the life of a blacksmith, a stonemason, and a carpenter in order to be respected, which is why most of China's ancient inventions were invented by old farmers.
Lu Renjia said: "Uncle Zhang, it's simple, as long as you have enough strength, you can turn copper coins into silk, right?" ”
Zhang Niu patted his chest and said: "This is natural, but if you rely on the efforts of animals, it is not as clever as artificial, and in the end, it may be a disadvantage." ”
Lu Renjia was ecstatic: "Okay, leave this matter to me, and I still need Uncle Zhang's help in the rest of the matter!" ”
When Lu Renjia and the others returned to the room, they hurriedly took out a pen and paper to draw the hammer and gear structure, and then handed it to Zhou Lao Liu.
Pei Yuanshao introduced Huang Endao and was very satisfied, and Pei Yuanshao introduced Lu Renjia to Huang Endao.
Lu Renjia was no longer surprised, and told everyone about the monthly salary system he had set, and the rest of the Huanglong army was also very happy, where would they have the money to get gold before? It's all about survival, and the more you go to the back, the more these officials are not like that.
The senior leaders of the Yellow Turban Army in the later period, like the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, all began to hedonism, which is also the fundamental reason why the Yellow Turban Army, although there are millions of people, is scattered.
Lu Renjia handed over all the power of liaison diplomacy to Pei Yuanshao because of the anxiety about the generator, Pei Yuanshao was also happy, Pei Yuanshao was very hospitable, and attracted many Yellow Turban Relics to vote for a while. In just one month, the population of Mount Sang exceeded 100.
But those who spend money don't know the hardships of being in charge, and Lu Renjia has already robbed more than half of the hundreds of deniers of grain last time.
Lu Fan only felt that the list on his shoulders was getting heavier and heavier, there were more than a dozen people who had nothing to do before, but now there are hundreds of people, not only responsible for their food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also responsible for lecturing to them, Lu Renjia is often pulled in as a lecture assistant and forced to operate.
The gratifying thing is that the first dozen or so people to follow Pei Yuanshao can already know the second and third crosses, and the most powerful one is Lu Meng, who can already write letters.
Huangfu Song chose to withdraw from the army because of the delay in the delivery of food. This made Zhang Liang relieved a lot, and Lu Renjia inadvertently let Zhang Liang live for a few more months. The imperial court ordered the support of the nearby state pastors, and a grain harvest was staged in northern China.
The old farmer, who had not had time to cast the yellow scarf, also picked up a hoe at this time and an uprising broke out. Yuzhou Mu put the intensity of suppressing bandits on dealing with the rebel peasant army.
is the so-called official coercion and civil rebellion, and the butterfly Lu Renjia has set off waves far more than that. After the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang rescued Dong Zhuo in Guangzong, they joined the army of Huangfu Song.
Because Liu Bei is a disciple of Huangfu Song's friend Lu Zhi, he takes great care of Liu Bei, and Liu Bei actually became a miscellaneous general.
