Chapter 109: Step by step
When Jiang Changan came home, the old man Jiang was lying in the recliner under the eaves, a thin piece, looking very weak, the old man who was not fat in the first place, because too many things had happened at home recently.
Both the body and the mind have been greatly hit, and now the weight has plummeted, and the weight is so thin that only skin and bones are left, which looks heart-wrenching.
Therefore, how could Jiang Changan feel guilty about Patriarch Jiang, the first to pick is cheap, how can he not pay the price for doing bad things? Who, then, will restrain their own behavior to fulfill others?
Of course, it is based on your own force value, how happy and how to come, then the world will be chaotic, so to be a man, you must abide by the rules, otherwise once you cross the line, someone will teach you to be a man, at this time to pay the price, can you afford it?
"Grandpa, I'm back." Jiang Changan carried a bag of sickles into the door, looked for the system and swept it, only the grandfather was at home, and only the uncle was hiding in the house to recuperate and sleep in the big house, or he had no face to see people.
Everyone else was busy, Mrs. Jiang sent the burned pottery to the villagers, and by the way, she collected the final payment, this time she pulled the Li family in the big house to help together, of course, she wanted to give money.
The big house is like this, how can you ignore it, and let the two fools continue to do it, the unlucky ones are the eldest grandson and two granddaughters.
"Chang'an, Shushen is also here." As soon as Old Man Jiang opened his eyes, he saw two little guys who had entered the yard at the same time, and the two of them looked like they were a little unguessed, which made Old Man Jiang laugh for a while.
"Well, the sickle is ready, there are more than a dozen, and we have enough tools for cutting rice." Jiang Changan walked in, took out a brand-new sickle, and brushed it twice in front of Old Man Jiang, bringing up a burst of fierce aura.
Old man Jiang's eyes lit up, and he wanted to pick it up and take a closer look, this was a farm tool made by his own granddaughter, and the thing looked a little thinner, but it was quite sharp when he looked at it.
"It doesn't wear out quickly, does it?" That little iron tooth, Old Man Jiang was afraid that the knife would roll up.
"No, the material is different, the new metal element created is hard, wear-resistant, as long as you don't often take it to cut something as hard as wood, it won't roll."
"That's good, rice and wheat are soft rods, they can't be broken, such a light knife will not be tiring to use for a long time, it must be very easy to use." It's a pity that he is having a hard time raising his hand now, so he can't try it himself.
"Well, grandpa, you have a good rest, I'll go to the backyard and make the wood accessories for the threshing machine." As soon as the farm tools are available, she will be able to build a house properly.
"Let's drink saliva and then go, grandpa can help with a two-day rest." If it weren't for these two blows, Old Man Jiang wouldn't have known that his body was so bad, and now he didn't have any strength in his body.
He is as old as an old man in his seventies and eighties, but he is obviously only in his fifties, and those who are well-maintained can still have babies.
Therefore, he can't be angry in the future, anyway, the anger in this life is over, because his biggest opponent has fallen.
Jiang Changan nodded obediently and agreed, "Okay." He put the sickle into the house, and poured a few glasses of water in the hall to drink by the way, of course, he would not forget Li Shushen's share.
Thinking of the group of people working hard in the backyard, Jiang Changan lifted the kettle on the table, etc., and the two walked to the backyard.
Jiang Lao Er and Yao's are picking soil in the backyard, Jiang Jiarong and Xingtao sisters are helping, of course, a few children are just sensible, in fact, they can't help most, but they still think it's fun to play with soil.
The foundation of the house was dug yesterday, and the excavated soil will be moved next door to the pottery kiln, where it can be used to burn bricks and tiles.
Jiang Lao Er has been used to carry giant wheels, but the actual labor is only husband and wife, and the progress is still very slow.
"Daddy, let's ask some people to help." Moving the soil is secondary, and there are many other things, and they have to do the monkey year to build the house?
The thatched hut that leaks rain, and the food collected in the summer will be stuffed into the narrow house, will there be a place for people to put their feet in the house at that time?
"Chang'an is back." Jiang Lao Er was loading soil, and when he saw Jiang Changan coming, he finally straightened up and wiped the sweat on his forehead, he was really tired to death, in fact, there were still some injuries that were not healed, but it did not affect his work.
You can't let your daughter-in-law compare herself, right? Isn't this embarrassing, a man can't be hypocritical, but it's really hard for him, so if you can ask someone to help, of course it's the best.
"Sister." Jiang Jiarong threw the small shovel in his hand and ran towards Jiang Changan, the school has not been in class for the past few days, Mr. asked him to write big characters, and he came to the backyard to play as soon as he finished writing.
"Sister." Jiang Xing and Jiang Tao were so excited to see Jiang Changan for the first time, because this little sister was a big benefactor who helped them get back to the field.
There is no need to be hungry in the future, oh no, in fact, they are also hungry in the past few days, and the taste is really uncomfortable, so I know how to be grateful to Jiang Changan more.
Tian Chan is now in the hands of his mother, and he will be handed over to his brother in the future, it's good, finally I don't have to listen to my father anymore, they have eaten in their own house in the morning, and my father doesn't dare to say anything about them.
All these changes are because of Jiang Changan, their little sister is really powerful, so they also have to learn to read and write, and they will be as powerful as their sister in the future.
Now there is no need to secretly read and write, the sisters are learning with their brother and brother openly, just now they were busy working while letting Jiang Jiarong teach them.
But in fact, Jia Rong has just started school, and he doesn't know much about them, and the sisters are very happy.
"Let's all drink some water and rest." Jiang Changan came with a water cup and hurriedly beckoned a few people to drink water.
Li Shushen carried half a bucket of water in his hand, which was specially used for everyone to wash their hands.
On a hot day, even if they put on straw hats, several people were still sunburned and sweaty.
This hard work made Jiang Changan even more determined to invite someone.
Jiang Lao Er clapped his hands and walked over, "We really should invite people, we don't build thatched houses, people generally build blue brick houses to invite masters."
But the master is not the same as the small worker, and the price is expensive. ”
But their Jiang family has a more professional master, the bricks and tiles are burned by themselves, the doors and windows are carved by themselves, what can others do when they come? Dry stare?
"We don't invite masters, we can hire people to make bricks and tiles, we can hire people to build walls, and we can invite people to hire beams and eaves.
Isn't there someone who also wants bricks and tiles? If you have time, you can come directly to work for workers. "Wouldn't that make it so that no one has to pay?
After the old Jiang family's fryer, Jiang Changan felt that no one should dare to imitate them in the short term, right? The bricks and tiles are even more impossible.
"Eaves are structured, right? Will the average person do it? "That's a mortise and tenon craft, almost one step at a time, not ordinary people can learn it, unless those who have a carpentry foundation, like Jiang Lao Er himself.
"I don't need technology, I've separated the drawings, one person only makes one part, no assembly, it's much simpler, ordinary people can do it."
Anyone can do the same simple structure by repeating the same simple structure on an assembly line, one workstation per person, right?
"Hey, that's good, then what are you waiting for, I'm going to invite someone to come, while there is no summer harvest yet, everyone still has time, let's do it first."
I believe that there will be many people who are willing to do it, after all, you can buy good bricks and tiles without spending money, Jiang Lao Er took a sip of the water in the cup, and the thief slipped away.
Yao covered his lips and snickered, "Your father is tired, and he has long wanted to invite someone, but he doesn't understand the craft and is not easy to speak."
It's like getting amnesty, running faster than anyone else. ”
Jiang Changan also smiled, this father is still good, at least he is willing to do it, "Father and mother are tired, just survive this world."
Mother, I'm going to do carpentry, make the model first, and wait for the hands to be in place as soon as you can do it directly. ”
Take the template and draw a scoop according to the gourd, so it's always okay, right?
Or do the wooden accessories of the threshing machine first, this is simple, after all, there is no need to carve, according to the size of the drawing, the plate is just planed out, the difficult is the gears and bearings of the iron parts.
The formwork of the wooden parts of the house was also made together, from the pillars and beams to the mortise and tenon structure of the eaves.
In short, it is very complicated, Jiang Chang'an has a thick stack of pictures, but she doesn't need to take the physical picture to see it by herself, who let her have the artifact of the system.
Only by doing a good job of the wooden parts can Jiang Changan concentrate on other things, bricks, cement, sand and gravel, and paint.
There are too many things that are missing, and you have to calculate the time you need, if you don't have a certain logic, you really can't do it.
It would be nice if there was a printer, you can print the things in the system directly, and you don't have to draw by herself, which is quite time-consuming.
It wasn't until the end of school in the afternoon that the ginger blacksmith made all the iron parts of the threshing machine.
Along with Jiang Blacksmith, there were also Song Fuzi and Hong Lizheng and others.
Especially the landlord Shen, like a cat who smells fishy, his family has a lot of fields, and of course he is interested in farm tools.
Landlord Shen ordered ten giant wheeled cars, but Old Man Jiang fell down and didn't have time to make them for him.
Now that the threshing machine is about to be born, Landlord Shen will grab one or two to take home anyway.
For Jiang Chang'an, Landlord Shen is very optimistic, who made her a disciple of Master Song, there is a lot to do.
However, the many accessories mixed together, everyone's eyes were black, and they couldn't see a clue from it at all, just two words, messy, even if it was Song Fuzi.
"Actually, it's very simple, it's the same as playing mecha, together?" Jiang smiled and invited Li Shushen and Shen Shikang, and of course her brothers.
Li Shushen raised his eyebrows, this person really wanted to pull him into the water anytime and anywhere, but he believed that he would be able to keep up with Jiang Changan's pace.
Shen Shikang is also full of confidence, and he is very serious and serious, and he has to learn from Jiang Changan, a little junior sister.
"Come on, let's get started." They can't do it by chopping wood shavings and carving them themselves, but can't they do it with simple assembly?
Not only a few children, but Song Fuzi and Jiang Blacksmith were all eager to try, and all the parts were piled up in front of them, lined up, waiting to see Jiang Changan's steps and do it themselves.
However, it turns out that the assembly of carpentry is also very difficult, not to mention ordinary people who have no foundation.
Jiang Changan is different, "The first and third parts are installed like this, and the second and fourth parts are installed."
The small mouth has to go, but the movements in his hands are not slow at all, Ka Ka Ka, as the sound sounds, the parts in Jiang Changan's hands are assembled by her.
At first, everyone could keep up, but gradually some people fell behind, and in the end, only Song Fuzi and Li Shushen kept up with the rhythm, but the parts were only half assembled, and Song Fuzi couldn't do it.
"It's really Lao Tzu, and his brain is not as flexible as that of children." No wonder Jiang Changan only invited children to assemble, because they adults couldn't react at all.
Of course, if there are drawings, it will be different, and he can't keep up with Jiang Changan's steps, so Song Fuzi simply took the drawings and slowly groped for them.
Because, this carpentry assembly is really very interesting.
Jiang Changan only took half an hour to assemble a threshing machine, and Li Shushen only completed eighty percent.
"This is a threshing machine, huh? How do you use it? "It's like a car and a house, but there are rows of teeth, it's really weird, and for a while the big guys can't understand the principle.
"Now, this lever can be controlled with the foot, and when you step on the foot, you can push the lever, and the lever pushes the gear, and the gear pushes the bearing, and the bearing has the power to make this big barrel turn.
As soon as the barrel turns, the iron teeth on it can bite off the rice on the top of the rice stalk" Jiang Changan explained verbally, which made everyone disperse.
Then I stepped on it, and I only heard the threshing machine 'buzzing' and turning, which was very labor-saving, but the sudden roar scared the onlookers a lot.
"Is this, this, dangerous?" Hong Lizheng's heart was raised, this machine looks terrible, it won't hurt people, right?
"Of course it's dangerous, when the roller is turning, you can't put your hands and feet on it, or you will be interrupted.
Brother, go get some branches, the kind with leaves, let's try it. Jiang Changan stepped on the pedal, trying to see if there was anything unreasonable about the machine.
When Jiang Jiabao heard this, he didn't care about assembling it, pulled it out and ran, and quickly broke a handful of branches with leaves.
Jiang Changan took the branch and put the end of the leaf on the rolling roller, and then everyone saw that the leaf was 'brushed', and it was twisted away, and then fell into the frame below.
At this time, Jiang Changan's hands were only left with bare branches.
"Hey, it's down! Knocked down! I think the rice can be beaten down as well. Landlord Hong was very excited, "Chang'an, can you give Uncle a try?" ”
"Of course, but you have to steady your heels and hands, the rotation of the rollers has suction, and you can't let your body pounce, otherwise you will get hurt."
Jiang Changan handed over the remaining branches to Landlord Shen, this is a person who bravely tasted crabs, worthy of respect, look at her father, and protect her mother as soon as possible.
"Okay." Landlord Shen was very nervous, and stepped forward cautiously, trying to pedal first, and then sending the branches to the roller little by little after getting used to it.
Suddenly, the sound of the collision of leaves and iron teeth rang out, "Huh? Actually, it's okay, it's so fast, the leaves are gone all of a sudden! ”
"But rice is very fine grains, can it be twisted down?" Seeing that the interval between the iron teeth was quite wide, the old farmer Hongli couldn't help but wonder.
"Yes, but you have to turn it over, and after beating it from the bottom, turn it on the other side until the rice is clean."
"Oh, that's great! This speed is very fast, a hundred times more convenient than manual threshing, with this threshing machine, at least six or seven percent of manpower and time can be saved! ”
Often when harvesting is a race against God, with this threshing machine, how much more grain can they grab back? Hong Lizheng was very excited, and he saw the ground at a glance.
"Chang'an, get ten or eight threshing machines for my uncle, the price is negotiable." Rich people are so tough.
"That shouldn't work, we ran out of iron, so we made eight accessories, I have run out of iron in the past few months, and I can't buy it."
Eight stations were given to the Shen landlord, what do they have for their family? Blacksmith Jiang definitely doesn't want to.
"It's okay, I'll apply for some pieces of iron to come back, this threshing machine should be the most advanced farming tool at the moment, we should make more, Huishi farmers."
In this issue of the summer harvest, you must be able to collect more grain, Song Fuzi stroked his beard, decided to discuss with Jiang Changan, and sent the paper drawings to the capital overnight.
