Xingnong stepped on the pedal of the thresher and pushed hard. The threshing drum inside began to turn. A rumbling sound was heard, and the drum inside turned faster and faster.
Xingnong grabbed the rice stalks with both hands and stuffed the end with the rice ears in, and a "crackling" sound was heard.
Grains of rice splashed up, hit the cover, and fell into the rectangular wooden frame below.
While stepping on the pedal, she turned the rice in her hand. With just a few movements, all the rice grains on a small bundle fell off easily!
Chu Tiankuo narrowed his eyes.
Songbai was pleasantly surprised: "Miss Xingnong, let me try!"
Ren Zilin's eyes lit up: "This thing is so useful, I want to try it too!"
The two of them rushed to stand up, pushing each other, neither giving in.
"Master Ren, I was the first one to come up!"
"Me first!" Ren Zilin pushed him away with his butt raised.
…
Seeing this, Xing Nong said, "Two people can fight together, one on the left and one on the right. Be sure to hold on to the rice stalks tightly and be careful not to get sucked in. The suction is quite strong."
Upon hearing this, the two of them immediately took a position on the left and right and grabbed a handful of rice and stuffed it in.
In the blink of an eye, two large bundles of rice were beaten clean.
Ren Zilin said excitedly: "Junior Sister, this thing is so useful! You have done something big again! It's a huge thing!"
This will benefit the people even more than energy-saving lamps!
It’s going to be posted!
As a county magistrate, he can get promoted and make a fortune!
Songbai nodded vigorously.
This thing is so useful!
During this dynasty, rice was threshed in a rice barrel, which was a round or oval wooden barrel surrounded by a bamboo fence. The rice was threshed by hitting it against the barrel wall. It was very laborious and even a grown man would be exhausted after a day.
With this pedal thresher, threshing will be quick and easy, and even teenagers at home can do it. How much time, manpower and material resources will be saved
Mr. Kong was so excited that he couldn't speak.
He understood even more clearly how much significance this pedal thresher had to the people of Chu and to the Chu State.
After a long while, he suppressed his excitement, stroked his trembling beard, and said calmly: "Try this manual harvester again."
Manual harvester, designed by Xingnong himself, does not require electricity or gasoline.
It was beginning to get dark when the group arrived in the fields.
Songbai moved the manual harvester to the field.
Xingnong pushed the manual harvester forward with one hand and turned the handle with the other hand. The iron plate was clamped, and the sharp rotary knife turned. About half a meter wide, two or three rows of rice were cut off in an instant. The crossbar swept, and the cut rice ears were pushed aside and fell to the ground.
All these actions were done in one go.
Xingnong pushed the manual harvester forward, harvesting as he went, leaving a row of rice beside him.
She frowned slightly: The speed is not fast, only slightly faster than human power.
Moreover, the person operating the machine needs to be coordinated and skilled in order to do it quickly.
The biggest advantage is that you don’t need to bend over to harvest, so it’s not that tiring.
Not very good. Xingnong tried it and felt that it needs improvement.
Master Kong was watching excitedly from the sidelines, "Let me try!"
Rise up!
The State of Chu is about to rise!
"Mr. Kong, please try it. I want to try it too." Ren Zilin was also eager to try.
It’s going to be posted!
You’re going to get promoted and make a fortune!
This foot-operated thresher and manual harvester are definitely magical tools among farm tools!
Xingnong stepped aside and let Kong Lao try.
When Kong Lao tried, he was not as skilled or fast as Xing Nong.
"This thing is not good." Xingnong looked at Mr. Kong's unskilled operation, holding his chin in thought.
After all, it’s not powered by electricity, so it’s not efficient enough.
Well, is there any way to improve it
The blade rotation needs to be accelerated. The faster the blade rotates, the faster the harvesting speed will be increased.
Ren Zilin's heart skipped a beat: "What's wrong with that?"
He still wants to get promoted and make a fortune, don't scare him!
Songbai didn't understand what was wrong with it, "This looks very convenient and easy!"
Ren Zilin nodded: "Yes, I think children can catch up with adults' harvesting speed with this thing. What do you think is wrong with it, little apprentice sister?"
Xing Nong: "The harvesting speed is not fast enough, the workmanship is not simple, and the price will definitely not be cheap. After all, it will not be a popular agricultural tool. Many people can't afford it."
Ren Zilin breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, as he thought she had said something wrong!
He said, "Ordinary people usually only have one or two acres of land, and they have many laborers at home, so they can harvest the land in one or two days. They even have time to help the rich to harvest the land. Of course, they won't buy it. Most of the land is in the hands of landlords and rich people. They don't lack money. After getting this thing, it can at least replace two or three laborers, so they will definitely buy it."
The most important thing is that these agricultural tools can be sold to other countries at high prices.
sky!
High-yield grain variety.
Winnowing Windmill
Pedal thresher
Manual harvester
These are super farm tools.
Every one of them is an achievement, a huge achievement!
God, God, God... ..
How many levels does he want to skip
From county magistrate to prefect
No, more than that!
From county magistrate to minister of finance
Just push that old man from the Ministry of Revenue out!
Ha ha... ...
No, for such a great achievement, the emperor will directly confer a title of nobility, right
By then, his official position will be higher than his father’s.
What if that little girl Ren Zishan shows off in front of me and says "I'm going to tell daddy"!
He put on his official hat and stood in front of his father to see if he dared to beat him!
Wow hahaha... .
Ren Zilin was happy whenever he thought of his father's frustrated look. He hugged Xing Nong excitedly and said, "Little Junior Sister, thank you so much!"
From then on, his status in the family changed...
Chu Tiankuo narrowed his eyes and grabbed his clothes.
"Ah~" a scream sounded.
Ren Zilin flew up and turned over in mid-air...
Xing Nong: "..."
... ...
It was late at night, and if it wasn't for the fact that he really couldn't see anything, Mr. Kong would have been reluctant to stop!
That night, Confucius excitedly wrote a letter and sent it out by a carrier eagle.
As he watched the black eagle disappear into the night sky, his eyes sparkled.
Blinking, he sat back at the desk and picked up a homework handed in by Xingnong from a basket.
Don't think he doesn't know that this girl completed the homework assigned by Bald Donkey long ago.
The homework he assigned me was not due until tonight.
Seeing that she made three farm tools, he forgave her.
Mr. Kong looked down at the contents of a page, and his mouth twitched. The words were so ugly...
This question is about how to observe the sun, moon and stars and move forward when you lose your way on a long voyage.
Hey, why did he give this question to that girl
He himself is still calculating and researching.
Once the research is completed, the Chu State can lift the maritime ban and send ships out to sea.
What the hell is that girl writing
How do you recognize this word
I'll punish her by making her copy books and practice calligraphy!
He opened his old eyes wide to recognize the words, and then his eyes opened wider and wider... ..
Can it still be calculated this way
Eh…
Is this the star-pulling technique of the Zhao State that shocked the other four countries
Mr. Kong stood up excitedly and ran out to find the craftsman.
So, the craftsmen who had not slept much for several days and nights thought they could sleep until dawn, but they were woken up again!
