Chapter Twenty-Three: Acting Boldly and Slightly Spending a Donkey (Fifth Update)

Xiaqiu Village drank sheep soup at noon, killed 30 sheep, went out to buy it last night, the village's own sheep could not be killed, and there was goat's milk to drink when the lambs were born.

More than 300 people came to help, and the village itself had 551 mouthfuls, some of which were too small to eat meat.

When Zhu Wentian was replaced, thirty adult sheep could not be eaten by the same number at all.

Now the amount of food of the people, and then see the meat......

Even with so many sheep, the village still cooks other dishes.

Slip tofu, fried leeks with dried tofu, eggs with green onions, mung bean sprouts mixed with thousands of shreds, roasted bamboo rats with bamboo shoots, fried shredded bamboo rat meat with amaranth, salted duck eggs cut up, fried green onions with bacon.

Eight dishes, mutton soup is soup, and the staple food is baked bread.

I don't make pies, steamed buns, or rolls, and I don't make stuffing and dough.

No one from another village has ever seen such a waiting! You have to go to a wedding banquet to eat it, right? Xiaqiu Village Atmosphere!

Zhu Wentian is still sitting at the main table, and there are more scallion fried mutton, hand-grilled lamb chops, water-fried belly, and grilled lamb face on the main table.

He grabbed a lamb chop and ate it with salt and peppercorns.

The officials didn't say anything, they understood after the last time.

"Drink!" The lieutenant poured wine for everyone: "I prepared smoked bamboo rats today, and you are hungry to eat on the way back." ”

He asked first, can you eat bamboo rats? No, you prompt and change.

"The bamboo rat is good, I saw it last time, it is big and fat, and it can be raised." Li Zhixian said that he loves to eat.

"I came here a few days ago, and I actually wanted to ask for one to eat back, but I really couldn't save face." The county Cheng followed suit.

"It's more fragrant than pork." The main book is just one sentence.

"I'll eat." Today's classic history is here, surnamed Wang.

The other three thought it was good to take him with them, for fear that he would report it.

The last time Zhixian went back, he gave him two pig's trotters.

Seeing that the four officials were all eating, the chief was relieved, and as for the officials, he had no choice.

"It's a long time! You've gotten our mouths dirty. I don't know, I thought the dishes on the table were made by which Xuancheng Restaurant! ”

Li Zhixian praised that there are many kinds of dishes, and the key is delicious.

"Incomparable, incomparable!" The lieutenant is modest, but he thinks in his heart, Xuancheng Restaurant is fine? Hum!

Zhu Wentian still got off the table early, and he didn't drink.

The others ate just as fast, and had to go to work when they were done, only the people at this table drank slowly.

Zhu Wentian didn't dream, he ran to the location of the four wells to observe.

The drought continues, and rice is about to be planted, and the river level is significantly lowered.

An orange tree has been erected next to the four wells, a vertical stick, and a horizontal stick on top of the vertical stick.

A large stone is tied to the other end of the stick, and this end is a bucket, connected by a rope.

The man used his weight to drop the bucket, and as soon as he let go, the bucket filled with water came up.

Dig out the well, this one is the most convenient.

There is also a water tool called thirsty wu, this one cannot be used, it uses a siphon to get water, and the other side must be lower than the water level.

The field is lower than the water level, digging a pit, digging a pit is so low, then it doesn't come out of the water directly? Another well?

As for the wheel, it's too slow.

"Many, matching, pieces, ah! Hey, hey, hey! Zhu Wentian said to the villagers in charge of the craft.

"There are ten sets of wells, and when the first one is broken, I will take someone to continue to do or repair it." Villagers speak with data.

"Uh-huh!" Zhu Wentian was satisfied, and went to see the ploughed livestock.

The harvest over there is almost over, and before it is over, the livestock go to the field, and then they have to irrigate, soak the ground, move seedlings, and plant seedlings.

Because it is necessary to interplant jute, the rice transplanting must be a line, and it is not possible to do it crookedly.

Last year, it was still manually adjusted, and this year the twine was pulled, pulled out one by one, and inserted along the line.

There are knots on the line, and one knot is a seedling, and the transplanting speed is faster.

There has always been one in Yangma Village, which is used to pull seedlings and transport seedlings.

Zhu Wentian observed, trying not to make loopholes in each step.

Drought is harmful, and on the premise of preparation, drought is beneficial, so as to avoid heavy rain knocking down rice seedlings.

When the rain is too heavy, the water cannot be released, and finally the interval between the fields is washed away, and the rice seedlings are lodging.

However, when planted with jute, jute can have some stabilizing effect, while reducing weeds and pests and diseases, and increasing rice yields.

After turning around, he found that there was no problem, he went up the mountain, and his friends were taking a nap on the side of the mountain temple.

He lay down, and without waiting to dream, he got up again, and found another tool for drawing water with pen and paper, which was a bit expensive for a donkey, and he had to buy a donkey.

***

"Li Zhixian, Guan Xiancheng, Zheng Zhuji, Wang Dianshi, brothers, have time to take a look!"

The lieutenant said goodbye to the officials at the entrance of the village, and the bamboo rat was sent out.

Ten of the officials, five of the officials, and the magistrate gave them more sauce lamb liver.

"Yichang, we will come in two days to see you grow rice.

After harvesting rice, ramie and rape should be reported, and the rice set of jute you mentioned should also be reported after we have seen it.

Remember to prepare more food, we come on an empty stomach, and we are counting on you for this meal. Hahaha......"

Li Zhixian responded with a smile, not afraid of eating poor Xiaqiu Village.

In the future, if all the villages in the county are selected to give a village benefits, it is guaranteed to choose Xiaqiu Village.

Because of Xiaqiu Village, worrying about the country and sacrificing oneself, cherishing the people, making sacrifices to the people, being in harmony with neighbors, being kind and virtuous, doing nothing guilty, and agreeing in words and deeds.

Seeing off the officials, the lieutenant rubbed his hands together and smiled happily: "Why has our village become like this?" The meat is eaten casually, and I don't dare to dream of it, it's too scary. Where is Hanhan? ”

He was in a hurry to find the village guard, Hanhan always ran around when he was a child, and he was afraid when he couldn't see it.

Last year, when there was such a big thunder on a rainy day, I had to brave the rain to find it.

At the moment, Han Han can't be lost.

Ask people, the chief came to the mountain temple.

"Hanhan, you didn't sleep?" The lieutenant asked in a low voice, the other children slept soundly!

"Buy, donkey, look. Hey, hey, hey! Zhu Wentian pushed the drawings he had drawn over from the small table.

"Buy, buy, buy, what is this?" The lieutenant agreed first, and then looked at the picture.

"Hmm...... The well car, a large horizontal gear on the top, a vertical gear below, a chain is hung on the vertical gear shaft, and a bucket is placed on the chain.

The whole chain with a bucket enters the well, the top rotates horizontally, the bottom rotates longitudinally, the bucket is filled with water and is brought out, and the water comes out because of the design angle at the top.

This is the same as the big waterwheel outside, and it needs to be rotated by a donkey, like a grinding mill.

If you want to get out of the water quickly, the big gear is set with a small gear, and a few more sets of elevation can be used.

This is going on day and night, unless the water in the well is not enough, but the well we dig is deep.

The orange tree is used during the day and this night, or the orange tree is used for two wells, and the well car is used for two wells, and the comparison is compared. ”

Zhu Wentian can't express it in a single word, it's really not good.

"Good thing, isn't this yet?" The lieutenant understood.

"It has been there for a long time, and it can be seen in the Tang Dynasty, and the average village can't afford to use it, so no one will pass it on."

Zhu Wentian gave the answer, Sichuan Yanjing, there is such a thing.

It's just two mouths, one into the mouth and one out of the brine.

"It's too late today, go buy a donkey tomorrow morning, donkey pulling is the most suitable. I'm looking for someone to do this now. ”

The lieutenant said and touched Hanhan's head: "Find someone to cook what you want to eat, or you can make it yourself." ”

"Uh-huh! Hey, hey, hey, hey......" Zhu Wentian nodded suddenly.
