Chapter 105: Three or five times faster

"Siege equipment?"

was asked by Zhao Laosan like this, Yun Yi couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

Is this Zhao Laosan really from the army?

Why didn't he even know a crossbow?

Seeing that the doubts on Zhao Laosan's face didn't seem to be fake, Yun Yi had to explain the role of the bow and crossbow to him in detail.

"I'm not talking about siege equipment, but a weapon for individual combat."

"The shape of the bow is slightly smaller than that of the bow and arrow, not only can it be fired with one hand, but it is also much easier to use than a bow and arrow."

Yun Yi even explained for a long time with a comparison, and saw that Zhao Laosan was still full of doubts.

So he simply took out a pen and paper and drew the shape of the bow and crossbow.

"This is what you call a hand crossbow?"

After staring at the drawings for a long time, Zhao Laosan said to Yunyi with a determined face:

"In the army of our Great Zhou Dynasty, there is no such weaponry."

"I've been in the army for nearly ten years, and I've never seen this kind of weapon."

"I don't know this kind of crossbow, where did you see it?"

The Great Zhou Dynasty didn't have a bow and crossbow?

How is this possible?

You must know that in the Han Dynasty, bows and crossbows in the previous life had already begun to be used in large quantities in wars.

Could it be that the weapon tree in this time and space has not been lit up yet?

Seeing that Yunyi was silent, Zhao Laosan thought that he was just hearsay.

So he rolled up his sleeves and simply showed Yunyi the weapons of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

When Yun Yi learned that the war horses of the Great Zhou Dynasty, although they had saddles, they did not have horseshoes, they were all stunned.

According to his estimates, the current Great Zhou Dynasty should be in the same period as the Tang Dynasty in the previous life.

But now, it seems that the civilization of this time and space does not seem to be very perfect.

Yun Yi sighed silently in his heart, and finally decided to make a bow and crossbow for Zhao Laosan first.

With a bow and crossbow in hand, not only can you hunt, but you can also let Zhao Laosan defend himself in the old forest.

The most important thing is that after his workshop is completed in the future, it is inevitable that Zhao Laosan will need to take care of the family.

With a powerful bow and crossbow in hand, it can also form a powerful deterrent to the young.

After making up his mind, Yun Yi began to draw drawings for the production of the bow and crossbow on paper.

Due to the huge power of this thing, in addition to the firing parts, other parts, Yun Yi decided to personally guide Zhao Laosan to make them.

For breakfast, I had rice porridge, stir-fried wild vegetables, and crucian carp soup.

Because Wan'er's body has not fully recovered.

Yun Yi not only left all the fish soup for her, but also added a spoonful of sugar to her bowl.

When Wan'er drank the sweet rice porridge, tears of excitement were about to flow out.

Yunyi's love for Wan'er, Zhao Laosan saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.

Now he is even more sure that Yunyi does not treat their father and daughter as servants, but sincerely treats them as family members.

At the moment, he only wanted to protect this family in the future and repay Yunyi for his kindness to their father and daughter.

After breakfast, Yun Yi took Zhao Laosan to Carpenter Zhang's house.

Carpenter Zhang's father and son were startled when they saw Zhao Laosan with scars on his face at first glance.

"Yi ...... Brother Yi, this hero is ......"

Seeing Carpenter Zhang staring at Zhao Laosan with a cautious face, Yun Yi couldn't help but sigh for a while.

"Carpenter Zhang, this is a relative of my mother's mother's family."

"Now that my hometown has suffered a disaster, and there is no way out, that's why I came to join my family."

Hearing Yun Yi say this, Carpenter Zhang's son first breathed a sigh of relief, and then said to Yun Yi with a playful face:

"Brother Yi'er, if the strength of the earth dragon's turn over is greater, it is estimated that you will have to find relatives to join you, how can any relatives still find you here?"

Hearing what the other party said, Yun Yi had to laugh twice to deal with it.

Fortunately, Carpenter Zhang did not let Yunyi wait too long.

After a while, he brought all the parts of the spinning wheel to Yunyi according to the drawings.

"Brother Yi, all the things you ordered are here."

"If there is any problem after going back to assemble, you can come to me at any time, and I will help you modify it for free."

For Zhang Carpenter's enthusiasm, Yunyi did not refuse.

Although I made a spinning wheel according to the drawings in my memory.

However, since it is the first time to make it, it is expected that various problems will arise.

After paying the silver money to Carpenter Zhang, Yunyi and Zhao Laosan picked up the accessories and walked to Uncle Tang's house.

When Yunyi took Zhao Laosan to his uncle's house sweating profusely.

Zhao Chunhua was spinning thread at home while chatting with a group of old ladies.

Seeing Yunyi coming to the door, Zhao Chunhua hurriedly stopped the work in her hand, got up and greeted him warmly:

"Brother Yi'er, what are these things you are carrying?"

Yun Yi first put the accessories on his shoulders on the ground, and then wiped his sweat and explained:

"Sister-in-law, this is the spinning wheel I built for Youwei."

"Since there is no place to put it at home, I thought about placing it in your house for the time being, so that Youwei can study with you for a while."

Hearing Yun Yi say that these were all accessories for the spinning wheel, Zhao Chunhua immediately waved his hand and agreed.

"Don't worry! There is no difficulty in spinning, and my sister-in-law promises to teach it. ”

Seeing that Zhao Chunhua did not object, Yun Yi was also relieved at the moment.

"Sister-in-law, this part of the accessories will be placed here first."

"I'm going to use the wheelbarrow at home, and some of the accessories are in the carpenter's house in the neighboring village, so I have to go and bring them back."

was not polite to Zhao Chunhua, Yun Yi pointed to the wheelbarrow in the yard and spoke directly to Zhao Chunhua.

"The other part of the accessories is in the carpenter's house in the neighboring village?"

"The carpenter's craftsmanship in the village is good, why do you want to go to the neighboring village to build it?"

Hearing Yun Yi say that another part of the accessories was made in a neighboring village, Zhao Chunhua couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

"Don't hide it from my sister-in-law, my spinning wheel is special."

"Since the spinning speed is about three or five times faster than your spinning wheel, I built it from different carpenters for the sake of secrecy."

Because Yunyi made this spinning wheel, it was to lead the villagers to get rich.

So when Zhao Chunhua asked at this moment, he didn't hide it.

"Three or five times faster?"

As soon as Yun Yi's words fell, Zhao Chunhua and the group of old ladies all exclaimed.

In fact, it is no wonder that they are so surprised.

If what Yun Yi said is true, wouldn't it be worth three or five days' work in one day?

In fact, for the improvement of efficiency, Yunyi is still relatively conservative.

After all, the spinning wheels of the Great Zhou Dynasty were too old.

Since there is only one spindle, the spinning speed is extremely slow.

The spinning wheel transformed by Yunyi is driven by pedals.

Not only can you free your hands, but you can also increase the number of spindles.

In this way, the efficiency of work is naturally greatly improved.

Regarding the efficiency of the spinning wheel, Yunyi did not explain too much.

Once the spinning wheel is assembled, all you have to do is give it a try.

It's just that he didn't want to explain, but the old ladies didn't let him go.

After being surprised, the old ladies couldn't help but laugh.

"Brother Yi, haven't you been deceived?"

"The spinning wheels of our Great Zhou Dynasty are basically the same, how can it be possible to increase the efficiency by three or five times!"

"That is, if the efficiency of your spinning wheel can really be increased by three or five times, then won't I earn more than all the men in my family?"

"Three or five times faster spinning threads? Do you think you are the Yunyi who invented the cylinder car and the curved plow? ”

……

For a while, the old ladies in the yard said a word to me, and Yunyi didn't even have a chance to explain.

Just as Yun Yi was looking for an opportunity to explain with a wry smile on his face, suddenly Zhao Laosan's rough voice spread throughout the courtyard.

"Isn't Brother Yi the Yunyi who invented the cylinder car and the curved plow?"
