Chapter 70 The shock caused by the drawings
The next morning.
Qin An walked out of the room and saw Ying Zheng and others already sitting in the yard chatting.
So I walked over and said hello to everyone: "Good morning, everyone."
The four Fusu people immediately saluted respectfully and said, "Good morning, sir."
The four Ying Zhengs said casually: "Good morning, sir."
One is a student, one is a parent, one is a generation younger, and the other is a peer, so the attitudes are different.
Especially in Qin An's mind, Ying Zheng and others are still state cadres, so being so friendly to him means they think highly of Qin An.
Ying Zheng waited until Qin An came to the side and asked, "Sir, have you written down the method of training soldiers?"
Qin An smiled and said: "Of course it has been written, please wait a moment."
Immediately, Qin An hurried back to the house, and then hurriedly walked out, but he had a few more things in his hands, which were the military training methods, farm tool drawings, and test papers that he had written last night.
There are also lantern drawings, which he drew through memories of his childhood.
The school did not teach how to make lanterns. When I was a child, I made small lanterns with my grandparents during the Lantern Festival.
This kind of lantern is still the simplest lantern, but it is enough.
He picked out a piece of paper with dense words on it from a pile of paper, handed it to Meng Tian, and said: "This is what I did during military training, and combined it with the training methods I saw on TV, and reorganized it a little.
When you burn this to General Meng Tian, you must tell him to use some ghost soldiers to test whether they can be used, otherwise I am afraid that the underground Qin army will be defeated. "
Qin An had no idea that his training manual was for the Qin Army, and it was also the Meng Family Army, the tiger and wolf division of Great Qin.
He thought that after Meng Tian got the manual, he would burn it to his ancestor, General Meng Tian.
Everyone wanted to laugh, but they didn't dare to laugh, for fear that Qin An would get suspicious.
"Thank you sir. I will definitely explain the situation." Meng Tian said smoothly.
Then Lao Xiang Handbook, who couldn't put it down, became confused. These were all simplified characters, not Qin Zhuan at all, and he couldn't understand them.
He turned to Qin An dejectedly and said, "Sir, I don't know these simplified Chinese characters."
Li Si walked over, took a few glances, and said, "I only recognize a small part of it. Sir, this military training method is useless even if you give it to Lao Meng."
Qin An was immediately embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, "I'm really sorry, I don't recognize this Qin Zhuan."
"No, no, no, this is not sir's fault." Meng Tian said immediately, "Please tell me word for word, sir, and let me write it out in Qin Zhuan."
"It seems that this is the only way." Qin An said helplessly, "Let's talk about this later. Let's finish the things at hand first.
Yesterday, I asked Lao Meng to make sickles, and I don’t know how many he made. "
"Ten of them." Meng Tian said, "We have built ten of them in total. Let's try them out first. If they work well, we will increase our efforts to build them."
"This is the best. Although I made a drawing, it is only a drawing after all, and it will always be different from the real thing." Qin An said.
He understood the mentality of Meng Tian and the others, so he was not angry.
Meng Tian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you for your understanding, sir."
Qin An waved his hand and said, "You're welcome."
Then he took out another drawing and said: "Village chief, this is a threshing machine. Because there is no gasoline or electricity, we can only rely on manpower, so I designed the simplest, manual threshing machine.
This threshing machine can quickly separate the grains and stalks. "
Before Ying Zheng and others could be surprised, Qin An changed another drawing and said: "This is a shelling machine, which shells brown rice and turns it into polished rice.
There is also this called the curved shaft plow, which can increase the speed of plowing the land, at least by 30%.
And this is..."
Qin An introduced the drawings he drew one by one, just like presenting a treasure.
Ying Zheng and the others had not yet recovered from the shock of the first drawing, and were shocked again by the second drawing.
Until the last drawing of the lantern was introduced, Ying Zheng and the others did not come back to their senses.
"Village chief? Village chief? Lao Li, Lao Meng, Lao Zhang? What's wrong with you?" Qin An asked.
Ying Zheng was the first to come to his senses, and then he looked ecstatic. He grabbed Qin An's arms with both hands and said, "Really? Are these drawings you drew real? Do they really have miraculous effects?"
"Of course it is true, but it is a pity that these tools are too backward. As long as there is water, electricity and convenient transportation here.
You can apply to the government for a few tractors, so that the vast majority of the labor force in the village can be liberated. "Qin An said.
"It's really good, it's really good." Ying Zheng said excitedly.
He only listened to the first half of Qin An's words, and didn't listen to the next few sentences at all. His whole mind was filled with the drawings drawn by Qin An.
Li Si and others came to their senses one after another and congratulated Ying Zheng: "Congratulations to the village chief, congratulations to the village chief. With this tool, Zhaojia Village will be more prosperous and stronger."
They specifically called Daqin Zhaojiacun.
Ying Zheng understood in his heart and burst into a heroic laugh.
"Haha...haha...Okay, great, sir, you are really the lucky general of my Zhaojia Village, here to help my Zhaojia Village prosper and be strong."
Qin An suddenly felt embarrassed, waved his hands repeatedly and said: "The words of the village chief are serious. The country sent me here, which shows that the country has not forgotten Zhaojia Village, and it has not forgotten the villagers of Zhaojia Village.
If you want to thank, thank the country. "
"Hey, the country wants to thank you, and you, Qin An, want to thank you even more. Without your arrival, we would never have had such tools, as well as those pens, inks, paper and inkstones." Ying Zheng said.
In his mind, although pen, ink, paper and inkstone were important, farm tools such as plows, threshing machines, and sickles were even more important.
Food is the most important thing for the people. If the people want not to rebel against the Qin Dynasty, the best way is to keep him full.
"It's nothing, it's just a piece of cake." Qin An said sheepishly.
"Sir, you are humble," Ying Zheng said.
He only thought that Qin An was being modest. How could such good farm tools be obtained with a simple effort.
A Black Dragon Guard walked into the courtyard, saluted Ying Zheng and said, "Village Chief, the villagers have been brought here."
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Qin An asked Li Si to arrange this villager.
"Sir, will you teach everyone how to make lanterns now?"
"Eat first. You haven't had breakfast when you got up in the morning?" Qin An touched his belly and said, "Ask the villagers if they have eaten. If not, come in and eat with us."
"They have already eaten." Ying Zheng replied, "They got up early."
"That's right, you don't have any other entertainment here. You go to bed when it gets dark, so you wake up early.
There is an opportunity to provide some entertainment projects for the village, so that everyone's spiritual life can be enriched. "Qin An said.
