"Lang Jun is different from the children of the big clan I have seen in the past!"

Zhou Changming held a bowl of steaming haggis soup, sipping on the oil flowers on the surface of the soup, and looked at Li Tai, who was sitting in a bunch with the same people and munching on the leg of mutton, and couldn't help but say.

Li Tai smiled after hearing this: "I really don't look good when I eat, but every time I eat, the crowd is hungry like tigers, and I am afraid that there is no soup when I pay attention to manners!" ”

When the surrounding troops heard this, they each smirked their eyebrows and laughed, but their chewing of food accelerated.

"It's not just about eating appearance, just take the plow for example, there is no such new thing in Kansai, but Lang Jun doesn't hide his selfishness."

Zhou Changming took a sip of soup, and his expression turned to reminiscence: "I did three things at home, the eldest brother died at a few years old, and the second brother barely grew up." When I was a child, I was greedy for food, and I liked to wander outside the wall of the big house next door, hoping that he would fall apricots in the wall, pick up and eat a bite, and I felt that it was a delicacy in the world. One day, when the second brother saw it, he couldn't bear to eat only rotten apricots, so he climbed the wall to pick them but fell into the courtyard of someone's house......"

"When I see my second brother again, he will be a corpse, and his belly will be dissected!"

While speaking, Zhou Changming lowered his head and gestured on his belly, and his eyes were already red: "Since then, I have learned that good things hurt people!" The family was rich in food and clothing, and it was not reluctant to give up a few apricots, but they were afraid that my second brother would swallow the apricots into his stomach and bring them out, so he opened them for inspection. It turned out that the ripe apricots I picked up outside the wall had been chiseled through by his family......

When Li Tai heard such a story, he was so shocked for a while that he didn't know what to say, just because he was afraid that people would swallow the apricot kernel and spread it, he would arrest someone and disembowel?

He opened his mouth and said astringently, "That, after that......"

"After that, Shangyuan no longer has Hexi apricots. The strongest old plant was cut down by me and beaten into a coffin for my brother! ”

Zhou Changming wiped the moist corners of his eyes, smiled at Li Tai, and then said: "Don't ask Lang Jun where you come from and where you go, just because you are willing to give me a good weapon, although Wednesday is only a material in the countryside, but I will keep this kindness in my heart for the rest of my life!" ”

When Li Tai heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. Originally, he also thought that if he directly dedicated Quyuan Plough to Daxing Taiyu Wentai, he might be able to change his official title, but when he saw Zhou Changming's dark and sincere face, he suddenly felt that this was not a loss.

"Romance is dangerous, and I am not a good person who is as good as I seem. The more people use it, the more they see it, so they don't dare to hide it. But if there are other private professions that refuse to teach the villagers, Lord Zhou Shu should not complain about my unrighteousness! ”

Feeling the heavy atmosphere, Li Tai said with a smile again.

Zhou Changming also laughed when he heard this: "Of course, of course." Exquisite governance, should be rich! ”

After dinner, it was not early, and all the tribes went into their own tents to rest, and Li Tai also returned to his small tent where he lived alone and lit an oil lamp.

Back in ancient society, the hardest thing to endure was the boredom of nightlife.

If you are in the Chengping world, you can still chase the fragrance of Qinhuai, and the fragrance of the red sleeves can also kill the long night. But now he has to cut through the thorns and thorns, and he really has no conditions and mood, directing construction during the day and drawing big plans at night.

Holding the bamboo ruler made during the day in one hand and the sharpened charcoal strip in the other, Li Tai followed his memory to draw out the structure of the large spinning wheel, and began to write and mark the shape and proportion of those components next to him.

Writing stops and writes, and occasionally you have to think about it for a long time when your thoughts get stuck. It is true that he has a deep memory of the structure of the large spinning wheel, but the specific component scale is gradually blurred over time, and he can only fill in the first half-guess and half-ignorance, and then make adjustments in reality.

The oil lamp was smoky, and after boiling for a few years, Li Tai's eyes were red from the smoke, and his vision was a little blurry and photophobic during the day, but he finally restored the structural sketch.

After a few days, the open field has been plowed and the millet has been planted, and during the time when the seedlings are growing, it is still necessary to weed diligently, so as not to compete for nutrients by weeds.

Li Tai saw all the tedious labor in his eyes, and couldn't help but feel that it was not easy for the ancients to survive, even if there was no persecution of war and chaos, he stopped talking.

After the sowing was completed, the warlord Zhou Changming led the crowd to leave, leaving only a dozen villager carpenters here. Li Tai also fulfilled the agreement and disassembled the functions of each component of the Quyuan plough and explained them in detail.

In addition to the necessary personnel for hoeing in the field, the other tribes were not idle, cutting wood and erecting piles, erecting sheds, and in a few days rows of sheds were erected in the fence walls, although the shape was still rough, but it also temporarily met the needs of living.

There were many people in the camp, so Li Tai set up a valley pass in the valley, built a wall with newly fired green bricks, and did not allow idle people to enter at will.

As he said to Zhou Changming, he is not a good person who is consistent on the outside, and there is also no lack of self-cherishing calculations, Quyuan Plough is willing to share with the masses, and the big spinning wheel, a tool that directly improves textile efficiency, is not very willing.

"Quyuan plough can be used by small households, but the big spinning wheel has many people to cooperate with the work, and it will only be cheaper for those big households with many private songs, so Lao Tzu is not stupid!"

He muttered in his heart, whether it was drawings or the creation of parts, it would only be handed over to his own henchman, and he would try to assemble it in this blue brick compound.

The traditional water-to-large spinning wheel is composed of four parts: water wheel, conduction belt, spindle and adding, but Li Tai wants to modify the water wheel, the most important source of power, and replace it with the way of cow grinding, so as to add one or more groups of axle structure.

The part of spinning and adding is basically the expansion of the traditional spinning wheel, although the components are more complicated, but it is not difficult to make and assemble, and it can be completed after a few attempts.

"With so many spindles, how strong does it take to turn them?"

Seeing more than 20 spindles on the spinning wheel, Li Xiaoyong, who was responsible for the assembly, sighed, his widowed mother worked, and was no stranger to the spinning wheel work.

"That's why you don't have to drive it!"

Li Tai replied casually, squatting on the side and fiddling with a few small models, because there was no abundant water power available, and animal power was needed to replace it, these spindles had already been cut.

He envisioned that replacing the water wheel with the form of a cow-drawn grinding disc would require a set of kinetic energy conversion from flat to vertical, which could be done with a bevel gear, and the structure was not difficult, but the material was a bit troublesome.

At present, there is no condition for cast iron and steelmaking, so it needs to be replaced by wood that is delicate and tough and has sufficient oiliness, otherwise no matter how exquisite the structure is, it is also troublesome to replace the parts with wear and tear at both ends in three days.

Although his manor has two hills, because it belonged to the public land earlier, I don't know how many times the good timber on the mountain has been cut down, and there are not many suitable timbers.

When he made this request, Li Yantou, the oldest but also the most lively, raised his hand and said: "The day before yesterday, I hunted fierce beasts in the mountains and forests with a few disciples, and strayed into the original East Garden. ”

"Yabai?"

Li Tai was also happy to hear this term, this is a good thing, in later generations, he gave him a half-meter-long Yabai cane, which is really beautiful when it comes out, and it has been popularized with some relevant knowledge.

As the name suggests, the wild cypress grows mainly in the mountains of high mountains and isolated cliffs, such as the Qinling Mountains and the Taihang Mountains. Li Tai didn't expect that there would also grow in low mountains and hills like Shangyuan, maybe it was because the ancient cypress was not as scarce as in later generations, but why didn't it grow on his own mountain?

"Is it really a blessing that is so wide that the mountain is born and Kamu?"

To the east is the manor of Dugu Xin, the most bullish old man, Li Tai crossed here, and he didn't dare to say that he was not superstitious, thinking that Dugu Xin's family would be so wide in the future, he made up his mind.

"Is the cypress being watched? If not, dig it up at night! ”

Dugu Wangfu's BUFF, he probably couldn't count on it, so he simply dug up his feng shui tree!

Li Yantou smiled after hearing this: "Ah Lang wait, I remember the direction clearly, it is inaccessible, I will cut it back tonight!" ”

Before dawn the next day, Li Tai was sleeping in a daze when he heard Li Yantou shouting in a low voice outside the tent, and hurriedly got up in his clothes and walked out of the tent. ”

I didn't know that the two of them were plotting to assassinate Dugu Xin, Li Tai was happy, so he lost his sleepiness and walked straight to the Nanpo compound.

This cypress does grow for many years, and although the branches are curved, it can still be taken vertically because of its thickness. The wood is not as good as Li Tai imagined, after all, it owes a little bit of polishing compared to the good wood of the mountain cliff, but it is also far better than the ordinary pine and cypress wood.

The subordinates were busy processing accessories, while Li Tai was digging a pit in the yard with a hoe, and inserting the pruned cypress branches into the soil one by one. Even if you can't add the Dugu Xinjia BUFF, stealing some feng shui is better than nothing.

After the chiseling of important power parts was completed, Li Tai began to try to assemble the spinning wheel. His large spinning wheel was mainly for spinning hemp, so the structure was taller, more than several times larger than the ordinary pedal spinning wheel.

With the rotation of the ox and the transmission of power, the more than 20 spindles on the spinning wheel also rotated synchronously, and several subordinates around them suddenly widened their eyes in surprise: "There are so many spindles, no matter how much hemp there is, it is not enough to spin!" ”

"Add hemp and give it a try!"

Li Tai had already asked people to collect dozens of catties of degummed linen, and when he saw the machine turning, he excitedly asked people to add the materials.

As the machine rotates, more than 20 strands of hemp are twisted and closed, and they are gathered at the other end to form a thread. Everyone, including Li Tai, all breathed and concentrated, lest they pant loudly and blow the twine.

But even so, as soon as the twine was pulled out a few meters, it snapped and broke one after another.

Everyone regretted again and again, and Li Tai bent down to pick up the broken thread and carefully inspect it, and observed around the spinning wheel for a long time to see the squeezed and broken gear teeth, and then made a conclusion: "The new wooden wheel is not running-in, the ox force is not uniform enough, and the thickness of the thread is uneven. But this way works, continue to debug, and you can always do it well! ”

Having said that, he was secretly melancholy in his heart, the model and the real thing are different after all, if it is just a large spinning wheel, the current materials are enough. However, due to the need to add a gearing device, the wood material was still defective.

The more than 400,000 waste money at home can be wasted!
