Chapter 390 The Threshing Machine and Language Conjecture

As one of the ten most representative inventions of the 18th century, the role of the threshing machine goes without saying. It has greatly improved arduous agricultural labor, improved production efficiency, and also helped many farmers save some hard work.

.

It is a very good agricultural tool.

After inventing this tool, Wang Yang finally felt a bit like returning to the civilized atmosphere of modern rural areas.

When nothing happened, he would ride on it and exercise, making everyone envious. Is this a toy?

Everyone really wanted to go for a ride, but unfortunately Wang Yang himself hadn't had enough fun yet. He rode all day long and didn't know where the enthusiasm came from.

After two days, a considerable amount of wheat was harvested and piled up into mountains, of course, with the ears of wheat and the straw attached.

Usually at this time, a bunch of friends start to help separate the wheat kernels, crush the wheat husks, and separate the wheat kernels.

There is no division of labor among the friends. In the past, the workload was not heavy at all. Sometimes when they got tired, they still had time to run aside and play.

Anyway, no one is supervising them, and no one is asking for anything.

The leader of the kids used to work for Shoukura. He would pick on the ears of other kids and pull them back. His dedicated attitude can be called the conscience of the industry.

Other children wanted to fight with him, but the adults helped defend the position. There was no other way. Such dedicated children are rare. Everyone loves them, flowers bloom, and cars have flat tires.

As a result, the guy who guarded the warehouse became the Wang Yang of that year, and his lust and power could be described as overwhelming.

Now that Shoukang no longer cares about them, Wang Yang is wondering whether he should choose another small leader to supervise them?

"Forget it, stop talking nonsense."

Wang Yang called everyone and asked an adult who had wanted to ride a bicycle to ride on it.

"Whoosh~" The hob rolled rapidly. Wang Yang picked up a handful of wheat ears and approached the hob wheel.

Suddenly, those metal rings hit the wheat ears one after another, knocking the wheat grains off one after another. The straw and wheat grains were separated very lightly.

Not only that, wheat is different from rice in that the husks fall off very easily. In this way, the wheat husks are quickly separated from the wheat kernels, eliminating the need to spend time kneading the wheat husks.

The wheat grains fell to the bottom of the barrel one after another, slid down an opening, and fell into the animal skin bag.

Wang Yang picked up a handful of wheat grains and blew hard, and the fluffy wheat husks flew away quickly, leaving behind the plump wheat kernels.

"Do you understand? This thing is a tool, not a toy. Of course you can use it as a toy and ride it instead." Wang Yang explained very seriously.

Everyone was amazed and admired Wang Yang so much that he could think of all these things.

The osteologist directly took Wang Yang away and asked him frantically what other tools he had, so that he could make them all to save him all kinds of worries.

Wang Yang was speechless. This was already a product of the 18th century. Even in rural areas today, many families still own it.

If you ask me to invent again, I can only invent mechanical and electrical energy. Was this invented by humans? Can we still be good friends?

The osteologist looked unbelieving and asked Wang Yang to continue his invention. Wang Yang stared with big eyes: "How dare you force the palace?!" He covered his face and walked away in defeat.



For the manufacture of such tools, Wang Yang handed over all the design drawings to Zhang San. Wang Yingying carved them on the template and burned them for him to see.

Wang Yang paid attention to the whole process. It was not until he and his men were familiar with each other and the work was done in a very standardized manner that he felt relieved.

However, there are still some aspects that Wang Yang needs to do personally, such as gears and chains.

There was no way. Although there was currently a mountain of copper available for mining, it would take time. In a short period of time, copper resources were still limited, and he did not dare to let others waste it.

The life of the tribe has returned to an orderly and joyful state, and the improvements in tools are directly reflected in efficiency.

Some people harvest the wheat, and some people separate the wheat. The teams are divided very neatly.

Wang Yang made four more threshing machines and let several older children take turns riding them. They really liked playing with them.

The younger children, under the leadership of others, kept blowing off the wheat husks without getting tired.

Wang Yang took the kiln fan to blow away the wheat husks. With the cooperation of someone, he was able to do it very quickly.

He began to think about it again, wondering whether to make another kind of threshing machine, another one with a fan system, which seemed... pretty good. Should it be used as a fan?

Or, find some bark and make a sieve? It seems that the sieve is not very easy to use.

Wang Yang calculated their speed and redistributed the manpower to ensure that the harvested wheat could be threshed with the threshing machine.

In the evening, everyone helped to load the goods into the warehouse quickly.

Seeing that everything was in order, manpower was freed, and everything was taken care of clearly, Wang Yang couldn't be more proud. He climbed to the roof, majestic and high-spirited, and recited the great man's masterpiece "Qinyuan" in his ups and downs tone.

Spring-Snow》.

"It's all over, let's count the famous people, let's look at the present..." It's called practicing pronunciation, but I don't know what face is anymore...

But to be honest, he has completely mastered the cadences and cadences, and has made considerable breakthroughs in pronunciation.

Even modern people wouldn't think it was a bad word if he said it, which is similar to "woo".

"Hu, Du, Shu, Zhu, Pu, Chu, Lu..." He has a solid foundation in pronunciation, and he has persisted in pronunciation for a long time, which makes people extremely admire him.

It's a pity that what he said is quite accurate. It is true that not many people can understand it. At least people as capable as him are vague about this aspect, while those Homo erectus who have already had the initial ability to recognize language can understand it.

It's subtle.

They were shocked and wanted to communicate with Wang Yang in words.

It's a pity that the Chinese that Wang Yang learned has an extremely perfect language system after countless years of accumulation.

What he said was completely incomprehensible to Homo erectus, but Homo erectus had better innate advantages than Homo habilis. They already knew that Wang Yang was talking in language, but they just felt that Wang Yang was speaking from heaven, and their eyes widened to express their incomprehension.

They drew pictures and asked Wang Yang to explain, but unfortunately their language only had abbreviations such as "you, me, and him".

But not all capable people can't understand, many children can also tell that Wang Yang is talking.

They lived together with Homo erectus, and they were in the blank slate stage. They accepted whatever they wanted, and they seemed to have the ability to understand language.

Wang Yang is really not sure about this. He probably understands it, but because of the different body structure, he can't tell.

If it weren't for trivial matters, Wang Yang would promise to spend ten or twenty years talking about it in front of every newborn child, regardless of whether he understood it or not, but he would talk about it for a few years first.

What if a child with genius talent understands it? And under long-term influence, what if he understands perfect Chinese?!

If you really understand, that would be great, great, Wang Yang would never think that he is a genius, he must be a time traveler like himself!

"Oh, let me go! Do I have to teach them how to speak? If Homo Homo is not good enough, isn't there Homo erectus?"

Wang Yangru was struck by an electric shock, and his whole body was ejected. The people on the side were so frightened that they took four or five steps back, wondering what was happening.

In the light of the fire, Wang Yang could be seen narrowing his eyes, letting out an infectious laugh, and staring at the bonfire with flickering eyes, causing everyone to speculate.

"Are you going to get angry?"

"No, I should be laughing."

"Nonsense, he is already sneering. I have seen this smile before. He must be angry."

"How is that possible! He also smiled like this when he was happy!"

"Wrong! You are all wrong. I saw his expression like this some time ago. Guess what he saw?"

Everyone guessed for a while but none of them got it right.

The man's mysterious drawing said: "He saw the white bodies of women..."

Everyone clapped their thighs and gave the man a thumbs up, which was indeed a thumbs up.

After coming back to his senses, Wang Yang saw that everyone was smiling at him, and he was confused about what they meant. When he asked, his face suddenly became solemn, he waved his big hand, and said righteously: "I am different from you, I am

gentleman……"

Once again, he has refreshed his bottom line of lack of moral integrity.



The idea of ​​teaching people the language came to mind, but Wang Yang did not just do it as usual because he knew how difficult the language was.

It’s not that language is difficult to learn. Language is not difficult to learn. What’s difficult is whether people’s brains have the language function.

In this regard, he remembered which area of ​​the brain was responsible for the language system, ensuring that people could express themselves freely in language.

If you injure this part, you will become mute. This is not a mute with a hoarse voice, but a mute with dysfunction. It is possible to save, but it is difficult to save.

After all, even modern and advanced medicine is helpless when it comes to your own brain and cannot explain or explain it.

Some people have a knock on the head and their throats are clearly intact, but they can't form words and can only babble, just like a child.

There are many examples in this regard, and Wang Yang has heard and seen many of them.

If everyone doesn't have this ability at all, it's a waste of time to teach others.

He estimated that Homo erectus may have the potential in this regard, but the function must be very weak, not enough to carry a complete language system, or even a broken language system, and only have the simplest functions.

This is absolutely certain and there is no need to try.

Because Wang Yang spent a lot of time in contact with Homo erectus, he talked to himself a lot. They often gathered around him and listened a lot.

It's been so long and I still haven't heard any flowers. It's obviously not possible to teach flowers right away.

Is there any way to quickly put it into people's minds like a painting?

He thought about it continuously for half a month, even though he had killed many brain cells, he still couldn't figure it out.

The idea of ​​opening up people's abstract thinking and image functions in the first place was a matter of luck and chance.

Now I am completely focused on this. Either there will be a bright future in the village, or I will fall into a dead end and never get out for the rest of my life.
