"Pulley." Meng Yuqing straightened out the tangled vines and began to assemble. "This is a model I made myself out of wood. It's used to hoist things into the sky. It saves half the effort."
He explained and demonstrated how to use the pulley system.
"Once the wall is higher, it won't be so difficult and laborious to carry the stones up. We can use a pulley system to lift the stones up."
After he assembled the pulley system, he picked up a fist-sized stone and handed it to Xuan.
"Feel how heavy this stone is, and remember it."
Xuan took the stone, weighed it, and said, "I remember it. What next?"
Meng Yuqing asked him to weigh the small wooden frame again, and Xuan did so.
Then Meng Yuqing placed the stone into the small wooden frame and hung the frame on the circle with a hook. Then he handed the vine wrapped around the two circles to Xuan and said with a smile, "Try pulling the vine gently and then slowly increase the strength."
Xuan pinched the vine and pulled it gently, and the small wooden frame slowly moved up. As the wooden frame moved, Xuan gradually became serious.
When the small wooden frame reached the top, Xuan stopped and looked at Meng Yuqing seriously and said, "This is much easier than just lifting the small wooden frame."
Meng Yuqing smiled. It was good to save effort. Otherwise, why would he spend so much effort to make a pulley system model himself.
"We'll enlarge this thing and use it to lift stones onto the city wall. It saves time and effort. The material must be durable, preferably good animal bones. Then I'll teach you how to carve, cut, and assemble it. We'll braid the rope together with strong vines to make it stronger and more durable."
Because this was something he already knew, he didn't need to find the system to exchange it. He took out the design drawing he had drawn and explained it carefully to Xuan.
Xuan looked at his stick figure drawing and compared it with the model, and finally he understood it.
"And there's also a cart." Meng Yuqing pulled out a design he'd drawn. "We've basically figured out the route we're going to use. If we can get this out, it'll save us some effort moving the stones."
After looking at the design drawings of the pulley system, Xuan returned the drawings to Meng Yuqing and began to study the design drawings of the cart.
Having previously made giant skis to haul game in the winter, he quickly understood the principles of the skid.
He pointed at the cart's wheels and said, "It's the same plank they use in winter with two logs dragged along the ground, right?"
"Yes, but this thing is called a wheel." Meng Yuqing took out a small cart model from the space, "Look, the wheels are round, so it won't bump up and down when rolling."
He took the cart from Meng Yuqing, placed it on a flatter place, and pulled it by holding the handle.
The cart began to move with his force.
Xuan opened his eyes slightly, seemed to be very interested in this thing, and started playing with it.
Meng Yuqing squatted aside and looked at Xuan who was in a playful mood, laughing in her heart, thinking that he was still a child after all.
After Xuan had enough fun, he put away all the small models and took Meng Yuqing to find Xia.
After seeing these two little gadgets, Xia was also very curious.
He pulled Meng Yuqing over and demonstrated to him how to play.
Meng Yuqing: “…”
It's understandable that Xuan is sometimes like a little kid at the age of nineteen, but how come Xia also has this side? You're already the father of a nineteen-year-old orc!
Does Qiuye know that you are so childish?
No matter how much he complained in his heart, he still had to demonstrate it, but this time it was Xuan Dong who did it, and Meng Yuqing was directing from the side.
Seeing that Xuan completed the demonstration without any mistakes, Meng Yuqing nodded. Xuan's learning ability is really strong.
If he were born in the modern world, he would definitely be a very powerful person.
After Xia understood the functions and usage of these two things, Xuan put the model back into the bag and handed it to Meng Yuqing, saying.
"Put it away and put it at home after our house is built."
Just as Meng Yuqing was about to take the bag, Xia said, "Put it here for now. If we want to make this thing, we may need to do more research."
Xuan opened the bag and rummaged through it, then pulled out the two designs Meng Yuqing had drawn. "Here's this."
Meng Yuqing subconsciously wanted to snatch back the simple sketch he had drawn.
This was not drawn according to the drawings provided by the system.
This is a painting entirely based on my own imagination, and it is really soulful.
It’s not enough to show it to Xuan, but also to Xia. When it comes time to make it, I’ll have to show it to many orcs.
Just thinking about that scene is enough to make me die!
Just as Xia was about to take the blueprint from Xuan's hand, he discovered that Meng Yuqing had thrown herself on Xuan's hand holding the blueprint.
"Let's put the model here. We'll take it back after it's built. This thing is so delicate that you can't understand it just by looking at the blueprint."
Meng Yuqing looked at Xuan and spoke with a righteous expression.
The main thing is to look at the drawings he drew, which may not be clear to you. Even he himself may not understand what he drew just by looking at the drawings without looking at the model.
I was able to make a pulley system thanks to the patient teaching of my junior high school physics teacher!
I don’t know how Xuan understood his own picture.
Xuan didn't quite understand why Meng Yuqing suddenly reacted so strongly, but he still obediently took the drawings back, and then said stubbornly, "After you're done, you have to take these two models back."
After hearing what Xuan said, Meng Yuqing understood everything. Xuan just liked these two models, and Xia seemed to like them too. He was afraid that if he left them here, he would not be able to get them back.
At this time, Xia laughed happily, "Okay, I will definitely let you take it back."
Meng Yuqing also held his forehead and said, "You are definitely one of the people who will be making the pulleys. You can watch over it every day."
"Yeah." Xuan turned his head away, his earlobes slightly red. He also felt that his behavior just now was a bit childish.
On that day, Xia prepared the materials, found a few orcs, and started making this simple version of the crane under the command of Meng Yuqing.
Their plan to go to the Stonehorn tribe was postponed for a few days in order to make a crane and a cart.
After the production was completed and the trial was successful, Meng Yuqing and Xuan entrusted the medicine garden to the tribe members, and took the Shengfu grass and those heat-clearing and detoxifying herbs on the backs of the flying orcs and went to the Shijiao tribe.
The person who led them was an old acquaintance, Xun.
When he heard that Xuan and Meng Yuqing were going out again this time, he volunteered to go out with them.
Meng Yuqing was quite happy when he saw that it was a gathering of acquaintances.
This time, the takeoff was not as sudden as last time, and Meng Yuqing sat steadily.
They also met the flying beastmen in the sky who were responsible for supervising Shirakuramon.
Yang was sitting on the back of a flying orc, looking at the Baicang beast below.
He has been observing this Baicang beast for several days.
