Danzhu studied for a day and a night without eating.
This made Yuyu a little worried.
"Clan leader, we all saw that A Hong was so hungry that he ate dirt..."
The old patriarch is much more perceptive. The envoys from the Central Plains definitely did not come all the way to eat dirt.
It’s just that during this period of time, he has been being dragged by Qiao Song and others to nag the family’s shortcomings. Now that he is free, he does not go to the wizard, but wanders around the Akafang clan. In view of his sensitive identity, the old patriarch not only has to give Qiao Song, who greatly promoted their face, also wanted to give face to A Hong, the envoy from the Central Plains.
However, it has been many days since contact was stopped. The rice in the south has been dried, and the autumn harvest in the north is about to begin. The harvest time in the south is dozens of days earlier than in the north. Of course, this number will not exceed a month and a half, mainly because The climate in the south is warm and crops grow quickly.
After drying, the tools that Wu got before can come in handy.
Flail, stone mill, and most importantly, the treadmill.
"Don't bother with his affairs. If others eat dirt, you also eat dirt? Don't imitate it. You may not be sure what they are tasting. You may also see that the composition of the soil is different. You kid, you are very clever, and you are spreading rumors here. Did you learn from Yu Pan?"
Yuyu chuckled: "I just think it's weird that he comes here and looks at this and that."
The old patriarch shook his head: "That is the envoy from the Central Plains. When we were in the Central Plains, we never saw anyone from the Imperial Court, right?"
The so-called imperial court is the center.
————
Danzhu naturally kept his promise and the grains were returned on time, but his "battlefield" was not facing Sanmiao for the time being.
The bullock cart obviously interested him more, but in fact, with this thing, the bullock cart in his hand was useless at all. Compared with the practicality, maneuverability, and the ability of the front and rear wheels to turn, In terms of smoothness, the car in his hand was far inferior to this thing.
Danzhu's kind of primitive vehicle, which is between a log cart and a real carriage, the wheel without spokes is called "quan"
辁, the 庳 (bei) wheel under the vassal chariot.
When Danzhu saw Ta Qi, the blazing craftsman's fire burned in his eyes.
“So much new equipment!”
At this time, he suddenly felt a little resonance with Yuzai, whom he had never met before.
I see! This is also a wizard who believes that equipment is productivity!
In addition to the previous windlass, canals, waterwheels, straight and curved plows, as well as the water control concepts popularized by Dayi, some of the water control concepts of Yuzai all reflect the importance of tools.
Stop talking, I understand you! You like woodworking equipment, and I also like woodworking equipment. The woodworking equipment is the best in the world. We are half-brothers!
Danzhu appeared like a ghost and startled everyone. Of course, Danzhu immediately said, please use this device for yourself.
"That's it... step with your feet, one, two, one, two... Hey, you ask me what this slogan means? Hmm... I don't know, it doesn't mean anything, it's just counting, I memorized Wu’s oral habits after listening to them last time, but they sound quite rhythmic..."
When the rice is recovered from the field, the grains and stalks are mixed together. After being blown by the wind, bulged, and threshed with a bamboo sieve, it is pounded in a stone mortar, and then bumped and sieved several times to remove the chaff and husk. This is A very tiring process.
But Danzhu felt very relaxed when he stepped on it. His body moved up and down as if dancing, and the huge wooden pestle head in front of him also kept hitting the round pit as he stepped on it. .
The rice begins to be shelled.
As for the flail, that hammer thing will do. I use the nunchaku, dong dong dong dong...
Of course, after using Danzhu, I felt it was good, but I always felt like something was missing.
His eyes looked at the second heavy weapon.
Stone mill and mill! These two things look very similar, but their work content is slightly different.
So as soon as Danzhu got started, his eyes immediately started to shine!
Oh, good guy, hefty! This is the aesthetics of men!
"No, no, no, that one was pulled by a cow, not a human...!"
However, a group of soldiers could not stop Danzhu from trying his hand. Danzhu pushed the millstone, trotted all the way, and spun around!
The big millstone is spinning creakingly. The millstone here is spinning bad!
Click!
"Ah, it's broken."
Everyone: "......"
Danzhu took the broken wooden stick and said to everyone: "It's nothing. I have probably figured out the principle of this thing. It's not that I sound harsh, but the principle of this thing is actually very simple and easy to copy. ....”
However, after saying this, Danzhu left quickly, saying that he would get them a better one the next day!
Yes, better!
This stone mill just has a broken handle....
"This, Ah Hong, just change this to one..."
However, by the time Ruyu spoke, Danzhu had already run away in a flash, leaving behind only the figure of a young man running at full strength under the setting sun.
"It's great to be young..."
The old clan leader said with emotion, and the elders in the clan also nodded.
The envoy from the Central Plains is really energetic.
However, Danzhu's words were overheard by Juzai, and the next day, Danzhu stayed up most of the night. When he went out half asleep, he found five slips at the door.
"A shaman from the Akakata clan?"
Danzhu raised his eyebrows. There were five different "vessels", or structures, painted on the five slips.
"Pulleys, wedges, axles, threads, levers..."
Danzhu looked at these five things and suddenly felt a flash of inspiration in his head. He raised his head and saw Yu Zai standing not far away, waving to him from a distance.
Danzhu was silent for a while and said: "Let's not talk about the river repair for now. Tell me, what does this mean?"
Danzhu was holding five wooden slips. He always felt like he was trying to catch something, but he just couldn't. This feeling was very irritating.
"These are the five basic accessories of the equipment, or methods. The changes in the sharp split can be regarded as the mortise and tenon joints of the Central Plains..."
Yuzai brought a small thing.
It was an exquisite, small stone hand grinding disc that could be held in one's arms.
Danzhu's craftsmanship is very good, and he has deep knowledge of carpentry. The ships he built can be pushed and walked on land. Although many people think that it is Danzhu's absurd performance, saying that he can sail on land. , but it also affirmed his carpentry ability from the side.
Danzhu is a famous shipbuilder and a famous Go master, but he has not learned the relevant skills for politics.
Ruan Zai didn't know that A Hong was Danzhu, but Qiao Song told Ruan Zai that A Hong's carpentry skills were very good. As long as you like carpentry, you can be friends with him, and although he likes to talk and have fun, He's being arrogant, but he's really a good person at heart.
"What's this?"
A design board that Yu Zai took out was taken over by Danzhu.
"This is... an idea of mine."
Yu Zai said: "This thing is called a fan car. I want you to make it. This is the internal structure. It's not difficult in fact. It can't be made this year, but it can be used next year..."
"next year?"
Danzhu suddenly stared at Sun Zai, and then sneered.
You, Party A, are incompetent! Who do you look down on? Is it that I, Danzhu, can't hold the chisel, or is it that you, Akafang, raised your eyes too high?
It's not that I'm bad at speaking...that's it?
That's it!
He slapped the wooden board with his palm!
"Give me the board. I'll give this to you tomorrow!"
