Chapter 5 These are all fetishes
As soon as the chai door opened, Ye Mo changed into one-piece overalls, the backpack was carried on his shoulders with a strap, and the other strap hung down very casually, a roll of white linen leaned out of the backpack, and the straps of the labor protection shoes were not fastened, so Shi Shiran stepped out of the house.
With his left hand, he took the door of the firewood room, walked to the face of Shi Zheng, who was about to go out to collect firewood, and said word by word: "Thanks to Uncle Shi for half a month, I am grateful for my late life, and I know that I can't help Uncle Shi, and it is not appropriate to continue to bother, so I will go to Lizheng to ask for a place to stay." ”
As he spoke, he took out a light blue finger-thick object with the length of a palm from his jacket pocket, and said: "There is nothing to repay, there is no long thing, only this marker, as a token, it will be redeemed with a lot of money in the future, please don't dislike it, I hope to accept it." ”
Shi Zheng didn't know what this "marker" was, but as long as he hadn't seen it, he thought it was a good thing, and his hand stretched out halfway and stopped, and he didn't pick it up immediately, looking at Ye Mo with a puzzled expression.
When Ye Mo in this costume first met, he seemed to have a slight change that he couldn't explain, this change was very peculiar and couldn't be expressed, which made him hesitate again.
Looking at the mother-in-law, the mother-in-law was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but take a step back, and the baby's eyes seemed to be a little hesitant and reluctant to look at him, which made him hesitate even more.
Ye Mo handed the marker pen in his hand forward, almost put it in Shi Zheng's hand, smiled faintly, and said: "Please rest assured, this pen is the only one, there is no other one in this world, please put it away, don't lose it, so as not to lose the certificate in the future." ”
Shi Zheng hesitated to take it, looked left and right, gritted his teeth, put his heart into his arms, pressed it again, and didn't say much, with an embarrassed smile on his face.
Ye Mo didn't look at them anymore, turned around and walked out.
The road is potholed, the water has not completely dissipated after the rain, it looks muddy, and with every step, the soles of the feet make that strange sound with the mud.
The village is not big, and there is no need to cross the river, so Shi Lizheng's house is not far away, and it takes two turns to reach Shi Lizheng's house.
Shi Lizheng's house is the largest in the whole village, and it also looks the most intact, but even such a house is considered the oldest in the poor villages of later generations, and the houses of other villagers are even more dilapidated.
Before he arrived at the gate of the hospital, he heard the conversation between Shi Laohan and Shi Lizheng inside, and from the content of the conversation, it was heard that Shi Lizheng was discussing his residence with Shi Laohan, and Shi Laohan was also very willing to let him live in his home.
Although I was very grateful, I was still faintly uneasy, and I didn't know if it would bring unnecessary trouble to this honest old man in the future.
His fears were justified.
coughed heavily, made a noise to the people in the yard, and then said loudly: "Is the elder Lizheng at home?" The junior Ye Mo asked to see. ”
As soon as the words fell, Shi Lizheng's deep voice came out: "At home, at home, come in quickly." ”
Ye Mo pushed the door in, and saw Shi Laohan's full smile, and saw Shi Li's hands stretched out to him, and hurriedly bowed down, but Shi Lizheng took his hand and laughed heartily: "The vulgar people in the mountains and wilderness are not rude, Xiao Langjun has seen the outside, and he just talked about you." ”
Shi Li paused for a moment, looked embarrassed, and said, "Xiao Langjun is still used to living?" If you are not used to living, it is good to change the environment, the female baby of Shi Laohan's family is famous for her handsomeness, and her meals are also famous. ”
Where didn't Ye Mo understand what was going on?
Besides, I came here for this matter, so it's better, I don't need to open my mouth, and Shi Laohan also wants to let himself live in the past, and the government is satisfied, which is the result of everyone's happiness.
Absolutely.
He bowed down to Shi Laohan and said, "Then I will disturb Uncle Shi, and thank Uncle Shi for saving his life." ”
Shi Laohan hurriedly returned the salute and said: "I can't afford it, it's just a bowl of rice soup, I can't afford it, Xiao Langjun can not dislike living in the old man's leaky house, and the old man dares to ensure that Xiao Langjun's food and clothing are well fed." ”
"Thank you, Uncle Shi, there are some things that I still need to discuss with Shi Lizheng in detail."
"Then the old man won't bother, go back to clean up the room first, and prepare some application things." As he spoke, he withdrew from the courtyard.
Shi Li said: "What is Xiao Langjun looking for me?" Enter the house and talk about it. ”
Ye Mo said: "Elder first, please." As he spoke, the two men entered the room one after another.
The room is very clean and tidy, although it is dim, you can still see the simple furnishings.
On a square table, the top has lost its paint, revealing the original color of the wood, and in the middle of the edge, a black clay pot and three black pottery bowls stacked together have lost their patterns.
Ye Mo sighed, Shi Lizheng's family of the clan is still like this, and those people can be imagined.
During the half month of the administration's residence, although he did not enter the main house, most of the utensils used in the firewood house where he lived were carved out of wood, which is enough to show the barrenness of the village.
War, no matter what era or country, as long as there is a war, it is not only your spirit, your body, but also your homeland that suffers and suffers.
Originally, in the war 100 years ago, the main source of soldiers was the children of the nobility, and civilians and serfs were generally not allowed to go to the battlefield, and most of them were involved in logistics work, such as cooking, chores, feeding horses, transportation, etc.
It can be said that it is an honor to be a soldier to fight on the front line.
But by this period, wars were frequent, and the nobles could no longer replenish the number of soldiers, and civilians had to go to war, and they were getting younger and younger.
This is the beginning of a national disaster.
Fortunately, the battle of Wuyue has stopped in the past five or six years, and Gou Jian should be tasting bitter gall at this time.
Ye Mo sighed secretly, took out a roll of linen from his backpack with his backhand and put it on the table, and stretched it out.
Shi Lizheng couldn't understand what it meant, and he couldn't understand what was written and painted on it, so he couldn't help asking: "Xiao Langjun is literate?" Or is it a painter? After saying this, he felt very inappropriate, his face was embarrassed, and he said: "Xiao Langjun writes well and draws well." ”
Ye Mo saw it in his eyes, smiled and explained to Shi Lizheng: "The younger generation has traveled all over the village and outside the village, cultivated the land in the mountains, and found that the reason for the poverty in our village is that our farming methods and planting crops are wrong.
The land of Wuyue is mainly agricultural rice, but our ramie village is located at the foot of the mountain, although there is a water source, but we can only see the rivers flowing in vain, can not cultivate rice, can only cultivate some millet, so that the yield is very low, so ah, in order to plant and produce rice in the future, enough for our whole village to eat, late thought of improving the method of arable land sowing, you see this big circle, called the waterwheel, the advantage is that it does not need manpower, the use of the natural flow of water, through the reservoir, you can transport the water from the lower place to the high, that is to say, The waterwheel can flow the stream water to the top of the mountain step by step, and this is an exploded diagram of the waterwheel's structure, and the carpenter can make it according to this decomposition figure. ”
Shi Lizheng was stunned, he had worked hard for most of his life, and he had never seen this kind of thing, without manpower, he could transport water to a high place, this method, isn't it only that only immortals can do it?
Ye Mo unfolded a linen cloth diagram again and said: "This is a curved plow, which is pulled by a ploughing ox, and it can be used by a child.
In fact, as early as a few decades ago, ploughing cattle have been introduced from the distant Tianzhu country to the north, and now the Chu State and Qi State in the north have already used ploughing cattle.
The Chu State and the Qi State in the north, although they used ploughing cattle, but the efficiency was not very high, because they had not been able to come up with a better way to control ploughing cattle, you see, this small object, as long as this ring is put into the nose of the ploughing ox, and it can be solved by holding it to make it painful, and it only takes one child.
This curved plow, compared with the previous plough, there are several major improvements, first of all, the straight wheel, the long wheel is changed to the curved wheel, the short wheel, and the plow disc that can be rotated freely is installed at the head of the wheel, so that not only the plow frame becomes smaller and lighter, but also easy to turn around and turn, the operation is flexible, and the manpower and ploughing cattle are greatly saved.
This is a tool for rice transplanting and pulling seedlings, called the seedling horse, its shape is like a small boat, the head and tail are cocked, the back is like a tile, people sit on its belly, when planting seedlings, insert the seedlings placed on the bow of the boat with the right hand into the field, and then gradually move the seedling horse backwards with both feet, when pulling the seedlings, then pull up the seedlings with both hands, tie them into turns, and place them in the rear warehouse of the boat, which can improve the efficacy and reduce the intensity of operation.
The younger generation dares to guarantee that with these few things, they can produce no less than rice cultivated in other villages, and even surplus. ”
Shi Lizheng seemed to be stunned, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was also wide open, his beard was windless, his hands trembled slightly, and after a while, he swallowed his saliva and moistened his throat, and asked very carefully: "So what is the yield per mu?" ”
Ye Mo thought about it, according to the historical records, according to the yield per mu in the early Warring States period, and the standard of balance, he made a simple conversion, and hesitated: "The yield per mu is 3 stones, and the yield per mu of rice and soybean is 3 and a half stones,...... More than. ”
"Hiss......" Shi Lizheng's pupils narrowed sharply, his five fingers were closed one by one, and he asked urgently, "Really?" ”
"How dare you deceive Shi Lizheng in the late life." Lan Yun sighed helplessly.
"Okay, good posterity, this is a merit to save the whole clan, if this method is promoted in the future, it will be a great merit to save Zhuji County, and even the Yue Kingdom, if my Yue King knows, I'm afraid a splash of wealth and wealth, waiting for it."
"Rich or not, the younger generation really hasn't thought about it, the younger generation just wants to live well in the clan, dress warm in winter, and eat enough on weekdays, it's enough."
"Haha... Good boy, good boy, it's a pity that you have this fairy-like ability, at such a young age, thinking about enjoying happiness in the village, it is inevitably a little early, that is, my old guy has the selfish intention to keep you by his side, and in the future, the county lord and even the king of Yue will not allow it, I thought that you boasted about Haikou, saying that you could give food and clothing to the people in the village, but in order to settle here, I didn't expect Ye Shaolang to really have such ability, don't talk about these first, and then talk about what kind of treasure is this? ”
Ye Mo unfolded another roll of linen cloth and said: "This is a pedal loom, different from the original machine with a simple structure, it is a complete loom equipped with a loom, a warp beam, a reel, a heald, a pedal and a frame, and the foot pedal is used to control the lifting of the heald, so that the warp is divided into two layers, forming a triangular opening to weave plain weave fabric.
The two pedals of the loom are connected with a central shaft with a rope or wooden rod, and then the central axis controls the heald opening, and the bias loom adopts the foot pedal lifting heald opening device, which frees the weaver's hands, and specializes in the work of weft insertion and beating, which greatly improves the production efficiency......"
