Chapter 214 Quyuanli
Chapter 214
The next day, the Qin family found Mo Lianfeng.
Mo Lianfeng thought to himself, just come to him to do something, but he was afraid that the other party would never come, and then he would do something big and violent, which he couldn't bear.
"Master Mo, can you lend us a cow for two or three days?"
"What do you want a cow for?"
"Help us plow the ground."
Mo Lianfeng pondered, the task he was recently assigned was to plow the land, which was quite a heavy task. Because if the land was not plowed, there would be no way to sow seeds, and spring plowing would be delayed.
Their current farming tools are tillers and plows. To use a plow, they need to be equipped with an ox. The oxen in their military camp are not idle. However, considering the generous gift given by the Qin family, their family needs to use an ox.
It's not impossible...
"We will use this cow for three days. We will not use it in vain. How about plowing two more acres of land for the military camp every day?" Lu Songli made a condition.
Mo Lianfeng raised his eyebrows. In other words, a cow, let out to work, is about the same as a strong laborer? This is equivalent to blocking the mouths of others. He really likes this family so much. He will not give it to him at all.
Cause trouble.
"Okay, I'll have someone take you to fetch the cows later." He immediately agreed. Who would use the cow anyway? Mainly because he was curious about what they wanted to do. As for whether they could complete the task of plowing the ground? We'll talk about it then.
Bar.
Under Mo Lianfeng's instructions, his people took them to pick out a buffalo that was in its prime and had a docile temperament.
Lu Songli probably knew that the current plows were straight-shaft plows. It was easier for people to plow the land with them, but the speed was actually not much faster than manual plowing.
The buffalo stood in the field very docilely and allowed them to manipulate it. It was obviously quite adapted to the work of plowing. Anyway, it started to stop and go after a while.
After putting on a set of Quyuanli, Qin Zhao took it and said, "I'll give it a try."
"Okay, you try."
Qin Zhao raised his whip and cracked it, and the buffaloes began to pull the plow. Then, the entire curved shaft plow began to move and dig, turning the soil continuously. Wherever the curved shaft plow passed, the task of turning the soil was completed.
The Qin family discovered that this thing plowed the fields too fast. The key was that people were not tired at all!
"Sixth brother and sister, this thing is called a Quyuuli? Can you get a few more?" With this Quyuuli, wouldn't their mission be easily accomplished?
Lu Songli didn't say anything, so Qin Heng said, "Don't be busy yet. This buckle plow needs to be paired with an ox. Without the cattle, it's useless for us to get a buckle plow."
Everyone heard this and thought about it.
So, on the land designated for the Qin family, Qin Zhao made the oxen work, while the others still dug the ground with hoes.
Because Lu Songli asked the blacksmith to make a curved shaft plow from fine iron, it plowed the land very quickly. In addition, the land had been moistened with water before, so Qin Zhao plowed nearly four acres of land in half a day.
After plowing four acres of land, Qin Zhao wanted to work more, but the buffalo refused to cooperate, even the green grass hanging in front was useless.
Qin Zhao had no choice but to lead the cow to the steward who was in charge of the cow and asked for a replacement cow, "Can you give us a new cow? This cow refuses to work."
"If it doesn't work, you can whip it with a whip."
"If you smoke it, it won't go away."
The cow was so tired that he rolled his eyes and his limbs were trembling. No, as soon as Qin Zhao stopped, the cow immediately fell down.
This movement startled the little steward, "What did you do to the cow?"
"We didn't do anything, we just let it plow some ground."
The little steward wondered, "If we were just plowing the land, wouldn't it be so tired?"
Qin Zhao's words seemed a little harsh.
Niu: Is that one point? It must be 100 million points!
The steward who was responsible for looking after the cattle inspected the cattle and found nothing wrong with the cattle. It might just be that they were tired, so he waved his hand and asked the Qin family to go in and pick another cow.
But the next day, the cows used by the Qin family were lying lazily on their stomachs, unable to be pulled out no matter how hard they tried.
This incident shocked the steward, and he stood up. No, he had to go and see what this family had done to the cattle?!
The soil is turned over so quickly!
The little steward took a look and realized that the speed was wrong. After another calculation, he was shocked.
The young steward immediately jumped to the field and scolded Qin Zhao, who was using the ox, "If my ox plows one or two acres a day, he is a hard-working ox. If he plows three acres, he is one of the best oxen."
ox!"
"You actually let the cows turn over seven or eight acres of land in one day. You really don't hesitate to use the cows at all! You are not tired, but the cows are tired! Don't your consciences hurt?"
To put it bluntly, he just feels sorry for the cow!
No wonder, the cows used by the Qin family refused to work the next day! They must have felt aggrieved!
This incident finally alarmed Mo Lianfeng.
Mo Lianfeng came to the Qin family's mission field and saw the convenience and speed of the Quyuan plow. He stopped caring about the tired cows and asked about the Quyuan plow. He even tried it out.
, found that it is indeed more convenient, easier to use and faster than the straight shaft plow.
He immediately thought of the tasks assigned for spring plowing. If he had this plow, he would surely come out on top...
Lu Songli presented the drawings with interest and introduced Mo Lianfeng to the previous blacksmith shop without hiding any secrets.
As for business, it's about being experienced rather than doing it raw, and besides, she's quite optimistic about the blacksmith's shop.
Mo Lianfeng was very satisfied with the Qin family's knowledge. When he saw Lu Songjiang helping her mother-in-law to rest, and he couldn't help but beat his arms, he waved his hand and arranged a new task for them - pulling weeds.
, this is also the lightest and most economical job in the military camp, and the amount of tasks is not specified, which shows that they can work hard.
When Mo Lianfeng went to order the Quyuan plow, he brought Lu Songli and Qin Sheng with him. Originally, he only wanted to take Lu Songli with him, but she proposed to take her little husband Qin Sheng with him.
He has great skills and can protect them even if he encounters an accident.
He thought it would not be good to just take her as a young woman, so he took her along with him.
Seeing Lu Songli come to the door again, the young blacksmith wanted to turn his head and pretend that he hadn't seen him. The main reason was to take this job. He made more money, but he was also really tired.
Lu Songli was smiling all over, "Master Zhou, what are you busy with? Is old Master Zhou here? There's a big deal."
Before the young blacksmith, whom she called Master Xiao Zhou, had time to speak, he saw his father lift the door curtain and come out from the backyard, "What's the big deal?"
