Chapter 21: Ying Zheng: I am also very happy today
"I will go and make the magic plow right away, and it will be finished within two days." Mo Ge tore off half of the cloth and wrapped it around his finger, then put the cloth with the picture on it into his arms like a treasure, and hurriedly bowed and said goodbye.
Of course Ying Zheng supported it and nodded in agreement immediately.
Mo Ge turned and left.
Wei Shengxue:!!!
"etc!"
My merits!
[Ahhh, you little thief who stole my merits! !]
The system was so angry that it wanted to punch him.
All the laws of nature emphasize "being the first". For a good thing like this that has so much merit, the first person who makes it can get a share of the merit.
Wei Shengxue tried hard to suppress her expression and said to the people looking at her, "Judging from your expressions, this thing seems very important. If so, I will lend a hand."
"Bring me some iron and some wood."
The attendant responded and left.
All the necessary items were ready in less than a quarter of an hour.
Green light lingered around Wei Shengxue's fingertips, transforming into a burning flame. "I'm better at alchemy, but I also have some knowledge of casting."
She can't forge iron, but she has a cheat.
With spiritual power in hand, I have expertise.
The iron block that originally needed to be hammered and tempered was directly turned into molten iron in the hot flames, and then stretched into the shape of an iron plow under the control of spiritual power.
She made the simplest drawing, which was called a curved plow in the system's information.
The plow is composed of a set of parts, including the plow wall, plow shovel, plow bottom, plow frame, and plow disc. The main body is made of wood, and only the plow wall and plow shovel need to be made of iron.
Soon, the plow blade and plow shovel were formed, and the iron tools made by the refining technique did not even need annealing.
As for wood, it is even simpler. Wei Shengxue, who specializes in wood, can make it easily.
The curved plow, which originally required the cooperation of several carpenters and blacksmiths working day and night to be completed within two days, appeared before the Qin emperor and his ministers in just half an hour.
"What a great man!" Li Si, who remembered the establishment of the new Qin State, could not help but sigh.
While the others were still marveling at him, Mo Ge had already trotted over to the unassembled curved plow and squatted down, staring eagerly at Wei Shengxue. Even someone like her who couldn't read the air or the expression on someone's face could see what he meant:
Can I touch them now?
"Please assemble them, sir." Wei Shengxue said.
Mo Ge immediately burst into laughter and led a few people from the Mo family to have sex.
"This part is great. It's called a plow, right? Push it in and it goes deep into the soil. Lift it up and it goes shallow. This way, it can be used for both deep and shallow plowing on different types of soil. Brilliant."
"This is the plow board, right? This arc is good. It can push the turned soil aside, saving more effort."
"Oh my, it can even turn. What a great baby." Mo Ge's tone was soft, and his eyes were so gentle that tears could drip out of them as he looked at the curved plow that was gradually taking shape.
Beside him, Ying Zheng also bent down and caressed it lovingly. The smooth wood and the flowing curves made him unable to take his eyes off it.
Further out, there are civil and military officials craning their necks.
Seeing that the immortal plow was about to be finished, Wang Ben was the first to speak: "I wish to transform into an ox and pull the plow into the field."
The general next to him glared at him with angry eyes. Damn, this old guy got there first again!
"Your Majesty, I am young and strong, and more suitable for pulling the plow."
"That's right, that's right. Marquis Tongwu has worked hard for the Qin Dynasty for many years. It's better to leave this rough work to us."
They were talking to each other, almost saying, "You're too old and you can't do it, let me do it!"
Wang Ben pushed his eldest son away with his backhand. "My son is young and reckless, so he should do some heavy work to temper his temper."
Wang Li, who was pushed out, held his head high and chest out, clenched his fists, revealing the strong muscles on his arms.
What a fierce struggle.
This really opened the eyes of the civil servants standing next to them. Why didn't they realize before that these warriors were so cunning?
Finally, Wang Li got a job pulling a plow thanks to the status of his father and grandfather, and the person holding the plow from behind was Li Xin who was accompanying him.
In order to more comprehensively test the effect of the fairy plow, they selected a piece of inferior field and brought in an old cow and a strong cow as comparisons.
First, use people to pull the plow, then use old oxen to plow the land, and finally use strong oxen for comparison.
The fields used for the experiment were of inferior quality. In this way, at least the worst possible number of acres of land that could be cultivated per day after promotion could be determined, so that the ruler and his ministers would have an idea of the bottom line.
----
The former King of Qi was so tyrannical that no farming was allowed within ten miles of the palace. The ground was flattened and compacted so that even grass could not grow.
If you want to experiment, you have to go ten miles away.
The group left in a mighty manner, causing the black-armored guards in charge of the security to break out in a cold sweat.
If someone attempted to assassinate him at this time, throwing a big rock could kill two or three ministers.
When he looked up and saw the immortal accompanying him, his overly violent heart finally calmed down a little.
There is an immortal here, who can get close to him!
…
The fields are crisscrossed and connected by paths.
The hot wind of midsummer blew, and the sparse seedlings swayed in the fields.
Occasionally, you can see two old yellow oxen pulling a plow side by side and moving slowly forward, with one person driving the oxen in front and the other holding the plow from behind, holding a long willow branch in his hand, waving it and shouting.
I dare not hit it because it is the life of my family. Even if I starve to death, I have to leave a bite of food for the cow.
"That's the kind." Wei Shengxue pointed to Ying Zheng. "I looked around for a long time, and all I saw were these plows that require two oxen."
I got a lot of merit for free, hehe.
The team stopped, and the agricultural officer jumped off the cart, squatted, and grabbed a handful of soil. The surface was loose, but hard below the level of a finger, mixed with gravel and weeds. It was a typical example of low-quality farmland, and one that hadn't been planted for a long time.
As soon as he determined the location, Wang Li immediately jumped off the carriage carrying the plow, took off his shoes and socks, and stepped into the field barefoot.
Li Xin followed closely behind, reached out to adjust the depth of the iron plow, and held the plow from behind.
The two men walked around in the field shouting slogans.
The turned soil was automatically pushed aside, leaving a gully-like line where the iron plow had turned over.
"good!"
Zhi Su Nei Shi stood by the edge of the field without blinking.
This obvious gully was actually deep plowing. Deep plowing in a low-quality field covered with gravel and weeds, yet they walked so fast and plowed so well.
This is almost as fast as ox plowing!
The two men stopped and spread the turned-over soft soil on the surface, which formed a sharp contrast with the other half that was deep in the ground and had not been worked.
Ying Zheng asked, "How many acres can be cultivated in a day?"
The Internal Affairs Officer of the Grain Department did a quick mental calculation: "If we use human power to pull the plow, we can harvest one and a half acres."
Human power is far inferior to that of cattle, and this is a low-quality field. If cattle were used instead...
"Quick, come here, Morning Glory!"
