"Virtuous brother, virtuous brother."

I still haven't seen anyone, only heard his voice.

When he entered the Zhuangzi, he called a person, asked where his virtuous brother was, and rushed straight in the direction of the front hall.

Arrived at the front hall, and at this moment their Zhuangzi's butler was reporting to him.

"Young master, this corn is ripe this year.

I'm in the process of arranging manpower, and in a maximum of 15 days, all the corn will be harvested. ”

"Okay, I'll give you full authority to deal with this matter.

Except for this year's new grain, wait until the world's food is stable.

I am arranging for more people to buy some, otherwise we will not have enough to eat in this Zhuangzi. ”

"It's the young master, I'll go and arrange it!"

After the official finished speaking, he got up to leave, Li Er walked into the front hall, glanced at the official family of Zhaojiazhuang, and looked up at Zhao Mu again.

"Brother Xian, look at you like this, this year is another bumper year?"

Zhao Mu nodded.

Although there was a drought and locust plague this year, the impact on Zhaojiazhuang was not particularly great.

"Hahaha, then I'm really congratulating Brother Xian, Brother Xi.

That is, I, Lao Li, followed the advice of my virtuous brother in advance and arranged these things.

Otherwise, my Zhuangzi will also suffer heavy losses this year.

But fortunately, although the loss is not very much.

By the way, Brother Xian, if it is about collecting grain, you can leave it to me.

If I need to collect as much food as I need, I will arrange for someone to collect it.

When the time comes, I will arrange all the grain for you, as long as it is given to you at the market price.

Don't worry, I don't earn your money, I will sell you as much as I collect. ”

"You can discuss this matter with the two butlers."

Hearing this, Li Er nodded heavily.

"Okay, good, then this matter is decided."

The two chatted a few more words, and news came from the blacksmith's shop.

According to the instructions of the young master, the newly created things have been made, and the young master is invited to check them.

"Yo, brother Xian, what did this invent?

Can I let Lao Li go over and take a look? ”

"Some gadgets, it's not a big deal, if you want to come along!"

The two followed behind Zhao Mu, and several people rushed in the direction of the blacksmith shop.

When I arrived at the blacksmith shop, I saw that there was an iron lump on the side of the blacksmith shop while making things.

Li Er stepped forward and looked at it carefully, patting left and right, there was nothing peculiar.

"How's it going, did you experiment?"

"The young master has already experimented according to your requirements, and the speed is very fast.

It's faster than we can arrange people. ”

"Alright, come on, show me how!"

"It's the young master!"

The corn was arranged and poured into the machine, and a donkey began to pull it.

As the donkey moves around the turntable, pulling the gears and chains, the whole machine goes into motion.

To the naked eye, you can see that corn kernels are falling out from underneath.

Some of the people came up and took their pockets, put all the corn kernels in their pockets, and set them aside.

And the corn pulp on the other side came out, and seeing this scene, Zhao Mu laughed.

"Hahahaha, not bad, not bad.

My Zhaojiazhuang semi-automatic corn peeling machine has been successfully manufactured.

When these corn harvests this year, it can be arranged.

At that time, there is no need to arrange manpower, and you can slowly peel it in this way.

That's faster than arranging people. ”

Seeing this operation, Li Er stepped forward and picked up a piece of corn and peeled it himself.

"I said Brother Xian, this is your Zhaojiazhuang's invention, what is this thing called, what is it for?"

Although he Li Er was on the side, he also saw everything in his eyes.

But I wondered in my heart, what the hell is this for?

"Hahahaha, this thing is called a semi-automatic corn kernel peeling machine.

Usually these corn kernels need to be peeled off by hand, but now with this machine, it can free the hands of all my Zhuangzi people, and the speed has not only become faster, but also less manpower.

The rest of the people can arrange for them to do other things. ”

Not bad.

Watching them conduct experiments on the side, Li Er also peeled a corn with his hands.

Finish a corn, this hand still hurts a little.

Then he threw the corn aside and came closer.

"I said, Brother Xian, why do I remember that all these things you arranged, each of them is called semi-automatic?

What does that mean semi-automatic? Could it be that there is also a fully automatic one? ”

"That's right, the so-called semi-automatic means that half of it is a machine, and the other half has to rely on other external forces.

For example, the previous ploughing, or the seeder, had to use oxen.

When the time comes, you don't need to use cattle, and it's all arranged as a machine.

It also means that my Zhaojiazhuang completely implements fully automatic production! ”

When Li Er heard this, he pursed his lips disdainfully.

Brother Xian began to brag again, since ancient times, this cultivated land has been made of cattle, is it possible that there is no need for cattle, and people are used to pull carts?

Seeing his doubts, Zhao Mu smiled.

It just so happens that he has nothing to do, so let's popularize some advanced ideas and concepts for him!

"You, your horizons are small, I told you before, do you know how big Datang is.

How big is the territory outside of this Datang?

With the development of the times, our production and life are constantly improving.

We will also know more and more things.

In the pre-Qin period, all weapons were bronze.

Later, with the development of iron manufacturing, bronze weapons withdrew from the stage of history.

Now that this army is marching and fighting, will anyone still have weapons made of copper? ”

Li Er shook his head.

Both bronze and iron can be used to make weapons, but the strength of the weapons they make is different.

Copper is softer and iron is harder.

So the times are evolving.

Those soldiers and people who were using bronze tools back then, who would have thought that there would be such a thing as iron one day in the future?

Just like us now, who would have thought what the future would be?

For example, I once used a telescope to show you the moon in the sky.

But have you ever thought that one day we too can go for a walk around the moon?

Walk on the moon!

Ah, Brother Xian, are you saying that we are going to fly to the moon?

If that's the case, then wouldn't we be immortals!

Zhao Mu was embarrassed for a while.

"I've told you, there are no gods in this world.

The so-called landing on the moon, that is the development of science and technology, is called science.

Don't say something that doesn't agree with you, and you will expose your own cultural level.

Besides, have you ever thought that one day there will be a tool to replace the horse and travel thousands of miles every day.

From Chang'an City to Liaodong, such a long distance, it only takes a few hours to arrive?

The so-called ocean, the wind and waves on the sea I told you, can also be scattered if you shoot the largest warship in Datang now.

For the warship of the future, it is like walking on the ground.

And you are in Chang'an City, I am calling Zhaojiazhuang.

If I want to contact you, I just need to dial a number and I can call it.

Even if the two of us are thousands of miles away, we can connect together, and the message is synchronized? ”

"Ahh

When Zhao Mu said something to him, Li Er was directly stunned.

"How is this possible, Brother Xian, are you joking again?"

"You, from time to time, come to my Zhuangzi, and listen to me talk about these sciences from time to time.

How is this critical moment that you don't believe in science anymore?

Li Er hurriedly waved his hand, Brother Xian, I believe in science, but the things you said are too unbelievable.

It's not that I don't believe it, but I really don't believe it!

Ay.

Li Er spread his hands helplessly, what the virtuous brother said was not his own, no matter who he was, he didn't believe it.
