Xiao Zhen took Xiao Yitai to the Fenglan Courtyard, the courtyard where the guests were received, "Lord Xuan, the next person has prepared hot water, you take a bath and rest, and my prince will set up a banquet for you to catch the wind in the evening." ”

King Xuan waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go, I'll take a rest." I'll be there for the reception."

Xiao Zhen left, and Xiao Yitai summoned the two imperial doctors to him, "You have also diagnosed King Jing's pulse, how is his body?" ”

A imperial physician said: "Lord Jing's pulse is weak and messy, although it has not yet reached the point of terminal illness, it is not much better. ”

Another imperial physician said, "Lord Jing's body is already in tatters. There is a danger of death at any time. ”

Hearing this, the corners of Xiao Yitai's mouth were raised high, and a hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, "It's best if you will die at any time." He has been suffering so much, it is better to find a way to help him get rid of it as soon as possible. ”

Xiao Yitai couldn't wait for Xiao Yilin to die immediately, so that he could be completely relieved. He already had an idea in his heart, maybe he could make the fourth child die faster.

Jing Yi didn't know Xiao Yilin's deception. Her watermill is ready to be installed. Wang Xuhuai couldn't wait for the various parts of the waterwheel to be transported to the river by ox cart.

The foundation has been laid according to Jingyi's requirements before the riverside, and it is waiting to be installed.

Many villagers volunteered to help with the installation, after all, it was a great thing for their village. If the waterwheel really worked, they wouldn't have to dive into the water to irrigate their fields with river water in the future. That's a lot of effort.

Under the guidance of Jingyi, the waterwheel was gradually erected and installed little by little. A huge waterwheel was erected by the river.

Jing Yi asked the two young men to go up and press the pedals of the waterwheel with their feet to make it start to turn, and then the bucket filled with water on the waterwheel entered the river, and after being filled with water, it was taken out of the water and turned to the other side, and the water was poured into the aqueduct on the other side.

Then the water flowed down the canal into the distance, and gradually flowed along the canal into the farmland that had been laid off.

Everyone saw a burst of cheers here, this waterwheel is really amazing, in the future, you can irrigate the fields without carrying water, and this speed is much faster than manpower to carry water.

Lin Xiuhan also heard that Yunxi Village was engaged in large-scale land reclamation, and he also dug canals. He was very curious to take a look, but he didn't expect it to be just in time for Jingyi to install the water wheel.

He was amazed to see a huge waterwheel erected by the river, and the water was transferred to the aqueduct under the control of two people.

He knew at a glance that the waterwheel was the work of the young man, and that he had come up with it, if not by him. I didn't see him still explaining some things that need to be paid attention to on the spot to the two carpenters, so that they could write them down and pay special attention to them when building them in the future.

The two master carpenters looked at the boy with great admiration.

The first waterwheel was successfully installed, and the second one was installed even faster. The two water wheels are installed together, so that more water is brought to the canal and flows faster.

Jingyi is ready to install two waterwheels in one place, so that not only is the speed fast, but if one is broken, the other will not be cut off.

Jing Yi asked Wang Dalin and his son to continue to build the waterwheel according to her improved drawings.

Wang Xuhuai said to Wang Dalin and his son in private: "You have to work hard, you have also seen the benefits of this waterwheel, and many places will definitely need this waterwheel in the future." Have you mastered the craft of making waterwheels, are you afraid that you won't be able to make money in the future? You follow Master Chu well, he will definitely not treat you badly. ”

Through this period of understanding, Wang Dalin also saw that this Chu Gongzi was not a simple person, and he could distinguish the important from the important.

The canals that Jingyi had the villagers dig before were interspersed between her fields, but now they are basically dug and can store water in the fields.

Jing Yi selected a few strong young men to be responsible for treading water wheels, and everyone took turns.

Wait for a watermill to be set up by the river, and at the same time fill the fields with water, then soak to dissolve the salinity in the soil in the water, and then put the water back into the river from the drain, and the saline water will flow down the river.

It is estimated that the salinity of this field can be reduced a lot after washing twice.

Jing Yi saw that the workers who were clearing the wasteland today had gathered together, so he wanted to take this opportunity to announce some news.

Thinking of this, Jing Yi stood on a high ground and clapped his hands and shouted, "Everyone be quiet and listen to me." ”

The workers fell silent when they heard this.

Jing Yi said loudly: "Everyone has also seen that this large field has more than 1,000 acres, and a few people in my family can't plant it at all." I'd like to hire some long-term workers.

A long-term worker is a worker who has worked for me for a long time and will sign a long-term contract. I will pay the monthly money on a monthly basis.

If you are interested, you can sign up with me. The number of places is limited, and I will also screen long-term workers. ”

As soon as Jing Yi finished speaking, the people around him started talking.

Wang Xuhuai found Lin Xiuhan in the crowd and hurriedly went over to pay a visit, "Lord Lin, why are you here, the villain doesn't know that you are coming, and he is not welcome." ”

Lin Xiuhan waved his hand, "I also heard that you are cultivating wasteland and repairing canals here, so I came to take a look, but I didn't expect to see such a good object as a waterwheel." It's very practical to look at. ”

Wang Xuhuai said with a smile: "This is all a good method that Chu Gongzi came up with. ”

Wang Xuhuai hurriedly asked Jing Yi to come over, "Master Chu, Lord Lin happened to come here to inspect today, and he was very interested in the waterwheel you made. ”

Jing Yi stepped forward to salute, "Lord Lin, this waterwheel is very helpful for irrigating farmland. It is especially suitable for places with water sources nearby.

When we dig more canals, the farmland in Yunxi Village can be irrigated, which will be helpful for planting paddy fields or dry fields. It can also save a lot of manpower and material resources. ”

Lin Xiuhan nodded, "This is indeed a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, I want to report to the court and reward Prince Chu." ”

Jing Yi didn't want to be in the limelight, so he quickly refused, "Lord Lin, I can't hide it, this waterwheel was researched by me and Wang Dalin Wang Carpenter, Wang Carpenter contributed the most, if you want to be rewarded, you should also reward him." ”

Lin Xiuhan was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that the young man in front of him would be so high-spirited and bright, and he would give such a big credit to others, it seems that this is also a person who is not greedy for merit.

Lin Xiuhan asked Wang Dalin to call him over again, and Wang Dalin hurriedly waved his hand when he heard that he was going to be rewarded, "This can't be done, this can't be done, this is completely an object that Gongzi Chu came up with, and I can't take credit." ”

Jing Yi said: "Uncle Wang, don't shirk it, I don't know anything about carpenter's work, this waterwheel is made little by little by you and Brother Wang." In the future, the promotion of this waterwheel will also depend on you to teach others, and I can't help at all. There's nothing wrong with commending you. ”

Wang Dalin didn't know what to say, but he said, "This can't be helped, this can't be helped." ”
