If it was an ordinary waterwheel, Chen Zhou didn't think there was anything.

But the waterwheel in front, the shape is different from the general waterwheel, it is to divert water from low to high, and someone also needs to step on the crutch on it, so that the big wheel of the waterwheel rotates, so as to drive the plate and leaf in the trough to scrape the water upward, so that the water is diverted to the higher place for irrigation.

This thing is called a keel waterwheel.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Chen Zhou saw it for the first time, but what made him feel interesting was not just the keel waterwheel, but the person who made or improved the waterwheel, whose name was Ma Jun, was one of the most prestigious mechanical inventors in the history of ancient science and technology.

Dian Wei couldn't understand this thing, but Chen Zhou said it was interesting, so he followed Chen Zhou and went over to take a look.

When the people of this village saw a soldier coming in, many people were a little nervous, and they looked at Chen Zhou and them very curiously, and when they saw Chen Zhou coming to them, the two people who stepped on the water wheel stopped in some fear.

"May I ask this general, is there anything going on?"

At this time, an old man from the village came over, who should be a local official, thinking that Chen Zhou was a certain general, so he called him so.

"I'm just looking at it casually, you tell them not to stop, don't delay farming."

Chen Zhou smiled, walked towards the village, and said, "Who built that waterwheel just now?" ”

The old man hurriedly followed and asked cautiously: "May I ask the general, did the person who built the waterwheel commit any major incidents?" He...... He is actually a good man, and please don't embarrass him. ”

Chen Zhou laughed and explained: "It's not a crime, but I think that he is about to make a great contribution, the manufacture of that waterwheel must be very complicated, this person is so skillful, he should be a skilled craftsman, I am ready to recommend it to Prime Minister Cao Cheng, this person is still in the village?" ”

The old man looked at Chen Zhou's expression, it didn't seem like he was lying, it seemed to be serious, and he hesitated and said, "Niu Er, you go and take Mr. Ma out." ”

Mr. Ma?

When Chen Zhou heard this, he thought that it was really Ma Jun.

By mistake, I actually found out that this inventor of the Three Kingdoms.

Not long after, a man in his early thirties was brought over.

"Will ...... Checkmate. ”

Ma Jun has a stuttering problem, so he bowed and said: "Ma, Ma Jun, the word De, Deheng, meet ...... Checkmate. ”

It's really Ma Jun.

Chen Zhou looked at him for a while and said, "Your waterwheel is very good, your hands are very skillful, and you have a lot of ideas, I appreciate it." ”

Ma Jun lowered his head and said, "Thank you...... Checkmate. ”

Chen Zhou said again: "I'm going to recommend you, but before I recommend you, I want to ask you for help." ”

"General...... Please speak. ”

Ma Jun stammered.

"Help us build ships and weapons."

Chen Zhou said: "I can give you enough money and people, and if you have any ideas, I can help you realize them, how about it?" ”

"Really, really?"

Ma Jun raised his head in surprise.

You must know that what he likes most is to engage in inventions.

However, under the influence of Shinong Industry and Commerce.

The work of a craftsman is not relatively low-level, and it is very expensive, he has no money, no one to help, he can't make anything, and he can't realize his ideas.

Hearing that Chen Zhou could give himself this opportunity, Ma Jun was pleasantly surprised, and at the same time a little hesitant, thinking that the other party was really that good?

"Of course it's true."

Chen Zhou said with certainty: "I'll wait for you here for a while, if you are willing to go with me, go back and pack up, leave now, if you don't want to, I won't force you." ”

As soon as this remark came out, many villagers were envious.

I feel that Ma Jun has stepped on shit luck.

"I ...... I'm not from here, it's just, just passing by, and I'm willing to ...... You can go now. ”

Ma Jun still agreed.

This is a place where he traveled around outside, passing by, and saw that it was difficult to water here, so he made them a keel waterwheel.

"Refreshing!"

Chen Zhou saw that Ma Jun agreed, and said, "Then we'll go back now." ”

"Good!"

Ma Jun said.

He didn't have much luggage on his body, so he could go directly with Chen Zhou, but before leaving, he still said goodbye to the people in the village.

The people in the village got a keel waterwheel, and they were quite grateful to Ma Jun and sent it all the way outside.

Back to the dock.

When Ma Jun arrived at the dock and saw such a large shipyard, he couldn't help but look around, his eyes flashed brightly, and he felt that his future must be here.

"Sir."

Cai Mao saw that Chen Zhou was back again, so he greeted him.

Chen Zhou said: "I will introduce you to a capable person, Ma Jun, the word Deheng, who is proficient in all kinds of strange skills, can build weapons for us, and build warships, he must have a lot of ideas, and you arrange dozens of people to assign him as a team." ”

Cai Mao looked at Ma Jun and felt a little puzzled.

It's just someone recommended by Chen Zhou, so he had to accept it and said, "Okay." ”

"Thank you...... Thank you! ”

Ma Jun stammered again.

Brought Ma Jun back and arranged it in this factory, Chen Zhou hesitated and showed Ma Jun one of his firearms.

Hearing such a shocking sound, as well as a bullet that could easily pierce armor, Ma Jun's eyes widened.

"Sir, this thing is amazing!"

Ma Jun said.

Chen Zhou gave it to Ma Jun, and said, "You think about it and see if there is anything else that can be improved." ”

"This is called a fire gun, and the surface is made of stainless steel, and when the time comes, I will arrange for a few people who are specifically responsible for forging to meet you and teach you how to forge."

"You give it a try, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work."

He sent the fire gun to Ma Jun.

There is such a great inventor here, of course, you have to use it well.

Maybe Ma Jun is okay and can help him toss a real firearm.

"Good!"

Ma Jun took over the task and said that it was no problem at all.

Chen Zhou was here, and there was nothing else to do, so he soon went back to Wancheng.

"Husband."

When Qiao Shuang saw him coming back, she immediately ran over, tired of Chen Zhou, and pouted: "Husband, go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, don't take us?" ”

Qiao Ying came over and said, "Shuang'er, don't mess around, Mr. is going to the barracks, and there are serious things to do." ”

Chen Zhou said: "I did go out to enjoy the mountains and rivers, and Shuang'er was not wrong, but in two days, I will find a time to go out with you for a walk, and I will definitely be bored at home all the time." ”

Qiao Shuang hugged Chen Zhou's hand and said happily: "Husband is so good." ”

Next.

After Chen Zhou got up, he got another piece of information.

"Attack Jiangxia?"

Chen Zhou was not surprised.

Sun's large-scale operation was really for revenge.

Unexpectedly, Cao Gu's movements were a little faster.

"The Sun family chose to attack Jiangxia at this time and kill Huang Zu to take revenge, will there be any reason behind it?"

Chen Zhou couldn't help but think too much.

This possibility seems a bit big.

You must know that next, Sun Liu will cooperate against Cao, which was confirmed by Xu Shu, if Sun Liu cooperates at this time, Huang Zu may become a bargaining chip, and Liu Bei will send it out and give it to Sun's people.

"Interesting!"

Chen Zhou was thinking again.
