Actually, I was on the boat last night and fished this thing out of the river.

Cao Ang had already flipped through the contents of it.

But at this moment, he put the box in front of him again, but he still felt a little bit excited.

Guy is so important.

Lifting the lid, lying in the box was a drawing made from several thick sheets of paper.

Carefully remove it from the box with both hands and unfold it on the table.

It can be seen that what is depicted on the drawing is a strangely shaped utensil, with a handle on the front side, a cone on the back side, and the part that connects the front and back in the middle takes on an upward curved shape.

Except for the main part.

It also includes an upper and lower pressure lever, as well as a few other ancillary devices, which can be a little more complicated.

If you don't know anything about this aspect, it's hard to tell what it is at first sight.

But say the name of this set.

I'm sure many people have heard of it.

"Item Name: Diagram of the Quyuan Plow

Function: Describes and records the overall situation of the plough in detail, as well as the method of building each part after the split.

Notes: Improved crops, fertile land, incomparably advanced agricultural tools, Trinity, now fasten your seatbelts and get ready for takeoff! ”

Recalling the words he saw on the stone tablet last night, Cao Ang couldn't help but smile.

It was exactly as stated in the remarks.

Now it's time to take off fiercely!

……

Farming tools are indispensable tools in the farming activities of the current era.

Depending on the species, there are also different functions, among which the role of the plough is to turn the soil, first turn over the soil, and then sow the seeds.

Ordinary poor people may not use this kind of farming tools when ploughing, after all, they lack the cooperation of ploughing oxen, but mostly use their own wood and stone to make their own ploughing and ploughing.

But for the large-scale collectivized work, the plough is extremely powerful, and plays a decisive role in the whole process of agricultural production.

At present, the father and son of the Cao family are vigorously implementing the military cantonment system in the territory under their control.

Under the establishment of the army, there are as many as more than 100,000 peasants, which is precisely in line with the characteristics of large-scale collectivized labor.

Therefore, the plough is an indispensable and important agricultural tool for the Cao family!

On this basis, the more advanced the plough and other agricultural tools used, the higher the efficiency of the military tun, thus greatly increasing the income of grain production.

The curved plough marked on this drawing is a more advanced agricultural tool than the plough used in this era.

In this era, large households generally use straight plows to turn the soil.

And this thing is very long.

The plough wheel alone can be nine feet long, and the overall frame is very large and heavy.

When changing direction or cultivating soil, it requires more force and is extremely difficult to maneuver.

It often takes two cows to pull the left and right at the same time, as if lifting a bar, in order to barely grasp it freely.

The Quyuan plough has been innovated on this basis and many shortcomings have been removed.

……

The so-called curved wheel means that the plough wheel, which is the main part, is in a state of bending upward.

The plough part is only about six feet, and the frame is smaller and lighter.

When performing operations such as turning and turning the soil, it is quite flexible compared to before.

And it is precisely because it is more flexible, so it greatly saves animal power, no longer needs two oxen to lift the bar, only one cow needs to be pulled in front.

This is a milestone improvement for an era when farming cattle are scarce, or even so scarce that corresponding laws need to be issued for protection.

And it is precisely because of the small frame of the curved plow.

So in some irregular, small areas of arable land, it can still play a role.

This means that more arable land can be excavated in a limited geographical area.

This is another far-reaching improvement!

In short, compared with the straight plow, the former is simply a comprehensive explosion of the latter, which is a kind of essential crushing, rather than a bit of improvement.

……

Cao Ang flipped through the drawings.

My heart couldn't help but be full of sighs and sighs.

It is worthy of being a powerful product that has been used for more than 1,000 years since it was invented, and has not been eliminated, which is really extraordinary.

Look at the split diagram on the next few pages, and the oval plough wall alone is another innovative improvement.

I don't have to say.

After he went to Dongjun, he immediately arranged people and organized people to carry out large-scale production.

At the very least, it is necessary to let the military tun under his command be equipped with a set of curved ploughs every certain unit.

As long as the basic package can be realized.

That is enough to ensure that the number of people cultivated and the means of production such as cattle are the same, and more land is cultivated, so that more food can be produced.

If the younger brother Cao Shuo's grain improvement work has achieved certain results and progress, and the yield per mu and the ability to adapt to the environment have been improved.

Under the cooperation of the two.

The agricultural machinery of the entire Yanzhou will be increased several times more efficient in an instant, and other forces will organize the people to work hard to produce for three or five years, which may not be enough for their own grain output for one or two years.

And so it goes.

How can other forces fight?

Unless they fight to destroy themselves, as long as they fight and consume, they will only have a dead end!

And if it is after the unification of the world in the future.

In the process of developing the south, the quyuan plough can also play a very positive role.

After all, most of the fields in the south are fragmented, not contiguous like in the north.

And the small size of the Quyuan plough is just to deal with this problem, under this careful thought, isn't it beautiful?

……

Considering that he is still in Dingtao County at the moment.

There really wasn't much anyone around.

Therefore, Cao Ang could only put the drawings back in the box for the time being, and wait until he returned to Dongjun to make plans.

After waiting for a few days in Dingtao County.

Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, Xun You and others finally arrived in Dingtao County with thousands of soldiers and horses under Cao Ang.

Expect the arrival of a large army.

Cao Ang, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly assigned tasks to everyone.

Among them, Zhang Liao continued to take his soldiers and horses to protect Xun's uncles and nephews, and went towards Puyang County, Dongjun, and in the next period of time, he fully cooperated with Xun Yu and Xun You's various measures in Dongjun.

And with the big troops.

There are also younger brother Cao Shuo and sister Cao Rui, as well as other subordinate officials who need to follow to Dongjun, including Zao Qi, who has been assigned to be in charge of Tuntian.

As for Dian Wei himself.

Cao Ang allocated more than 100 men and horses for him alone, and ordered him to go to Puyang County in Xunyu and Zhang Liao and others, and then guard in Dingtao County and take care of his family.

After going back and forth to Changyi County.

Then go with your own devices.

After arranging all this, Cao Ang did not waste much time, and took more than 100 guards to Changyi County.

But in the ranks of peers.

also took his mother Mrs. Ding, as well as the concubines of his father such as Bian, after all, for a long time in the future, Daddy Cao Cao may not return to Dingtao County.

…………

Because there are a lot of female dependents in the team.

Therefore, the speed of travel is not fast.

It's just that Cao Ang is not in a hurry, anyway, he estimates that his father has not returned to Changyi County from Jinxiang County at the moment, and he has a lot of time for him to hurry.

Therefore, it can be regarded as quite leisurely.

It's just that after entering the boundary of Shanyang County, less than five days away from Changyi County, Cao Ang accidentally bumped into a person.

Xu Jing Xu Wenxiu.

It was night, the sun had already set for a long time, and the sky had already become dark.

The soldiers lit bonfires around the camp and, under the arrangement of the generals, divided into groups of people to make sentry patrols around the perimeter.

And at this moment, Cao Ang is in the camp tent.

Two people sat opposite each other at the front of the table.

One of them is Xu Jing, who took over Cao Ang's task and has long since disappeared.

Previously, Cao Ang sent him to Qingzhou Plain County to find a person, and now that he appeared in front of Cao Ang, he must have completed the task.

"Wenxiu, it's really hard for you to travel all the way!"

Looking at the dust in front of him, his face was full of exhaustion, and there was a sense of fatigue in his eyes that could not be hidden, and the whole person looked full of embarrassed men.

Cao Ang couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder.

There was a reassuring tone of concern.

And Xu Jing after hearing Cao Ang's words.

First, he rubbed his cheeks vigorously with both hands, sighed, and then squeezed out a little smile on his face, and said to Cao Ang.

"As long as I can do the things that you entrusted to me, General, it will be worth the hard work!"

……

After a few pleasantries.

Don't wait for Cao Ang to ask.

Xu Jing took the initiative to introduce the situation.

"General, fortunately, my subordinates successfully found the person you were looking for, and successfully brought him back, and he is now placed in the camp of his subordinates."

"If you want to see him, your subordinates can order someone to bring him now, and you will see him in less than half an hour!"

Listening to Xu Jing's report.

Cao Ang's eyes suddenly lit up.

Even if he had already guessed about Xu Jing's arrival, he heard tangible news at this moment.

Cao Ang still couldn't help but clench his fist with his right hand, and hammered it the palm of his left hand.

"Smack!"

"Wenxiu, well done!"

"I knew that you were steady, but after this time, I knew that I really didn't see the wrong person!"

Listening to Cao Ang's unsparing praise.

Xu Jing was also a little excited in his heart.

Serving as the official imperial historian in the imperial court controlled by Dong Zhuo is already a thing of the past.

At the moment, his leader is Cao Ang.

General Cao's evaluation and views on him are really related to his future and future.

Therefore, a word of praise from the leader made Xu Jing intuitively feel that many of the efforts he had made before were not in vain, but had been rewarded accordingly.

While I was thinking.

Xu Jing's ears suddenly came to Cao Ang's inquiry.

……

"Wen Xiu, don't be in a hurry to call people first, you can roughly talk about the situation along the way."

Xu Jing arched his hand when he heard this.

Then there was a detailed description: "After getting the general's order, his subordinates took the men and horses all the way to Pingyuan County. ”

"When passing through Dongping Kingdom, in order to avoid the Yellow Turban War, I couldn't help but make a big circle to the east, and went north to enter Jibei Country through Ningyang County, and then successfully arrived at Pingyuan County, which took a lot of time on the way."

"But it's also a blessing and a curse, after entering Pingyuan County, I took a lot of luck, and in Gaotang County, which is located in the south, I found the person you were looking for."

"It is precisely because of this that my subordinates can appear here now, otherwise if we really want to continue to the north to reach Banxian, I am afraid it will take many more days."

Listen to Xu Jing's narration.

Cao Ang nodded from time to time.

I also know the hardships along the way.

However, now is not the time to reward meritorious deeds, so Cao Ang just asked.

"How did you bring him here, did you persuade him verbally, or did you forcibly tie him up?"

……

Hear this question.

Xu Jing's face suddenly showed a wry smile.

Some shook their heads helplessly.

"After the subordinates arrived in Gaotang County, they inquired a lot about the news from all sides, and knew that this person was a person who was arrogant and arrogant, and he had always been arrogant and did not put the world in his eyes."

"So after thinking about it for a while, I'm ready to lower my position and ask for good words, after all, where people are unfamiliar, it is best not to be strong."

"It's just that after I sent the famous thorn and went to his house for a visit, my subordinates know how wrong the decision I made before!"

Hear here.

Before Xu Jing could tell what happened to him.

Cao Ang already showed a playful smile on his face, and asked with a mocking meaning.

"Did you go to visit with kind words, but you were scolded by him in person, and the scolding was very ugly, so people don't know how to reply?"

In a word.

Xu Jing's eyes widened immediately.

looked at Cao Ang a little dumbfounded.

Then he nodded again and again.

"It turns out that the general knows this person's temperament, and his subordinates still think that you have only heard of his name, but they don't know his true face."

"Originally, I was still thinking about it, such a person, the general, you invited him, what effect can that be, most of them were deceived by his name."

"To be honest, if it weren't for the general's designation that you would bring this person, your subordinates would have been hiding as far away as they were, and that guy really doesn't look like a serious person!"

……

Xu Jing's complaint made Cao Ang even more unsurprised.

I really couldn't control the smile on my face.

After forcibly managing his facial expressions, Cao Ang waved his hand at Xu Jing, and then said meaningfully.

"Wen Xiu, you don't understand, what I want is his stinky mouth, the more he scolds, the more he can play a role in my plan."

"If it's just for his name, it's far from making you travel thousands of miles, it's really his temperament, it's hard to find a replacement in the world!"

Xu Jing was stunned when he heard this.

I didn't expect that having a dirty mouth and scolding smelly and ruthless scolding turned out to be a talent.

Incomprehensible!
