Chapter 119
Boom, boom, boom...

In the east square of the county magistrate's mansion, Zhang Buji was a little dumbfounded.

In front of him, three women were holding on to the railing, and they were stepping on a long horizontal wooden cylinder with wood chips inserted in it. During the rotation, the five sledgehammers at the front were driven to swing up and down.

Solid, powerful, rhythmic voices come and go.

Zhang Buyi asked weakly, "Are they...thundering rice?"

Liu Ying pretended to be very surprised and said: "Wow, you even know this... It's amazing, it's really amazing!"

Zhang Buyi's face was full of black lines, and he turned his head away silently, and then turned his head back silently, looking at the sledgehammer flying up and down without blinking.

"How about it, let's have fun!" Liu Ying raised her chest:
"This is my inspiration, and then the equipment made by the Mohist children is stepped on with feet and connected to multiple points. Compared with the previous single manual pounding of rice, it saves ten times the manpower and improves the work efficiency by a hundred times!"

"Yeah!" Zhang Buyi nodded perfunctorily, intending to step forward for a while, but considering his identity, he hesitated.

After all, in this day and age, the work of pounding rice is mostly done by criminals.

The most effective way to preserve rice millet is to put it in the warehouse together with the shell, and take it as you eat it.

However, humans cannot digest chaff, so further processing is required before eating.

This is the song "Daya·Shengmin" in the Book of Songs: pounding or smashing, winnowing or trampling.The old man of release, the floating of steam.

In translation, it is to dehull the grain, then sift out foreign matter such as stones, rinse with water, and finally cook.

Very troublesome.

Therefore, pounding became a kind of punishment.

"Go, my sister and Liu Fei will come over to pound rice later..." Liu Ying saw that Zhang Buyi was about to move, so she urged her.

Zhang Buyi was a little surprised: "Does the prince of Marquis Wu'an also have to work? Why have I never seen it in Wanxian or Yangdi?"

Liu Ying explained with a smile: "My elder father said that although we can't replace him in this catastrophe, we still have to help if we can."

"So early in the morning, he went up the mountain with a pole to collect firewood. As for my sister, she mainly wanted to avoid homework by working..."

Zhang Buyi nodded. In the past few months, he has often seen little Lolita go crazy for various reasons.

"Smelly brother, you're talking ill of me behind my back again!"

Hearing the voice from behind, Liu Ying immediately squatted down to avoid Liu Le's slap.

"Good skill!" Zhang Buji quietly gave a thumbs up.

"There is no one else, but you are familiar with it." Liu Ying raised her eyebrows.

"Stop messing around and go to work!"

Lu Pheasant came from a distance. Today, she changed into a short linen skirt and a handkerchief wrapped around her head. To be precise, this is called a female scarf, and this word is gradually used to refer to women in later generations.

She walked up to Liu Ying, looked at Liu Le and said, "Whether our family can have dinner tomorrow is up to you!"

Little Loli collapsed immediately, feeling extremely regretful in her heart, she would have known better if she had stayed at home and learned to do needlework...

Liu Ying stepped forward, bowed and saluted: "Mother."

Lu Zhi patted his head: "Well, let's go play."

"It's not fair! Why can my younger brother go to play!" Little Lolita yelled with her hands on her hips, trying to run away as if.

Lu Zhiyun said calmly: "It's fine, let my brother give you the math problem for your debut. If you can solve it, you can play for a day today."

Niuwa... Liu Ying highly praised Lu Zhi's one-hit kill in her heart, and said immediately: "Why don't you let my sister push the stone to grind the noodles? In the morning, the father said that he wanted to eat a slice at night. Soup."

"Push a stone mill? Brother, wait for me..."

The little loli on the opposite side roared, turned silently and walked onto the drum, imitating the appearance of the people around her and began to pound rice.

Liu Ying heard the sound of the sledgehammer hitting the ground rhythmically, and shook her head slightly. This kind of rice pounding instrument with five hammer heads, which uses human power, is a very delicate artifact in the eyes of Lv Zhipangong and others.

It's just that in Liu Ying's view, this is still too labor-intensive.

He intends to take out a hydraulic rice pounder directly, but considering that the time is not yet ripe, he gives up.

After all, in the historical line that he is unable to change, the land of Guanzhong will be divided into three parts, divided among Zhang Han, Dong Yi and others.

Improving productivity here is tantamount to capitalizing on the enemy.

The most important thing is that the hydraulic rice pounder is too time-consuming to build. It is very likely that he followed Liu Bang to Guanzhong, and the hydraulic rice pounder has not yet been built.

Liu Ying thought about it, anyway, he had nothing to do today, so he went to the little girl who was working hard, and started to be a cheerleader...

"Mother! Look at brother!" Little Loli protested loudly, puffing her cheeks.

Lu Zhi, who was helping to move the rice in the distance, just smiled, as if nothing happened.

After Liu Ying estimated that the anger value of the little loli was about to explode, she immediately turned and ran away. He was going to wait for the little loli to calm down, and then come again!

Guanzhong, Xixian, Hongmen.

In early spring and February, the spring is cold and cold, but the peach buds on the branches have spit out, and the grass on the ground has sprouted light green new shoots.

Liu Bang was sitting on the carriage, wearing black clothes, looking at the ruined city of Xianyang across the water, feeling more and more uneasy.

And this is why he no longer wears the red armor that symbolizes the Red Emperor.

After all, Xiang Yu, who presided over the slaughter of Xianyang City, also held the red Chu army's battle flag.

Beside Liu Bang, Liu Ying looked around with a beaming face.

Today is the time for Xiang Yu to preside over the division of kings.

As a time traveler, although Liu Ying knew that she was about to leave Guanzhong, it was still very exciting to be able to witness this moment.

After a while, the carriage drove into Hongmen.

Under the earthen platform for offering sacrifices to heaven, princes from all walks of life gathered, but there was no trace of Xiang Yu.

Liu Bang curled his lips and said nothing, but just carried Liu Ying off the carriage and led him towards the crowd.

In the distance, a middle-aged man with a chest-length beard hurriedly walked towards them.

Liu Ying instantly felt that there was something wrong with the way this man looked at Liu Bang.

There is adultery... Liu Ying looked at Liu Bang who was hugging each other, and put a jade crown on each of Lu Wan and Zhang Liang in her heart.

After hugging that person for a while, Liu Bang turned his head and said to Liu Ying incoherently: "Quick, hurry up and salute, this is the famous person in the world I often told you, Prime Minister Zhao opened his ears!"

Liu Ying stepped forward, bowed down and said, "I've seen Uncle."

Well, Zhang Er is a few years older than Liu Bang, and in the first half of his life, he briefly followed Wei Wuji, Lord Xinling.

This is another reason why he has a good relationship with Liu Bang.

After all, everyone's idol is the same person.

Zhang Er lowered his head to look at Liu Ying, and said anxiously: "Fortunately, you followed your mother in appearance, if you follow your father, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get married in the future!"

Liu Ying raised her small face innocently: "Does Uncle have a daughter?"

Liu Bang whispered in his heart that something was wrong, but Zhang Er did not suspect him, and shook his head slightly: "I only have one son, no daughter."

Liu Ying crossed her waist: "Uncle is so rude. He doesn't even have a daughter, so he dares to criticize my father's appearance?"

Liu Bang said with a smile: "Tongyan Wuji, Tongyan Wuji..."

Zhang Er laughed loudly: "Father is like son, really like father and son! You have already made a marriage contract with the lady of the Xiang family, aren't you satisfied? How many do you want to marry?"

Liu Ying straightened her chest: "My brother-in-law said that a strong man marries nine wives, and I only have one, and there are still eight more!"

Lu Shizhi, I can't spare you... Liu Bang laughed awkwardly again: "Tongyan Wuji, Tongyan Wuji..."

Zhang Er naturally didn't care about anything with Liu Ying, he just turned his head and said with a smile: "Zhang Ao, come quickly and meet Marquis Wu'an!"

Liu Ying turned her head and looked at a young man who was walking high-spiritedly in the distance.

The young man was about eight feet tall, wearing a martial pen on his head, wearing a black samurai uniform, with bright eyes and sword eyebrows, and a handsome face. His many years of military career made him full of masculinity.

Although you are handsome, my loli will never marry you... Liu Ying secretly made up her mind to mess up this marriage.

After all, this guy is more than 20 years older than his loli!

Zhang Er, Zhang Ao and Liu Bang spoke a few words, and the sound of drums and music was loud in the distance.

Zhang Er said with a smile: "It's finally here! He's quite impressive! Let me wait here for a long time!"

Liu Bang led Liu Ying and walked slowly towards the front of the crowd.

According to his expectation, he will become the king of Guanzhong, so he must be the first one to crack the earth and seal the king!
But when he stood still, he suddenly froze.

Outside the gate in the distance, a carriage slowly drove up. Although the carriage had been painted with a layer of dazzling gold paint, Liu Bang recognized it at a glance. A carriage!
"Bah, shameless, grab Naigong's car!" Liu Bang spat in a low voice.

A moment later, Xiang Yu, who was dressed in a fine attire, got out of the car, and looked around with his double-pupiled eyes. Zhang Er Sima Ang and others suddenly lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.

Liu Ying just looked at him curiously, and then began to scan around him, looking for the figure she wanted to see.

The legendary soldier fairy Han Xin!

"It's not like this, it's a bit too old..."

"It doesn't look like this either, look at his miserable face..."

"Could it be this, the face is clean and the skin is delicate, I'll blanch it, this is a woman!"

He stared blankly at a small man in men's clothes who was following behind Xiang Yu, although the other party purposely drew thick eyebrows and tried his best to tie himself into a flat plate...

It's just that Liu Ying, as an old driver who has read countless movies, and a yuppie with a sharp eye, recognized her daughter at a glance.

This should be Xiang Yu's other mount... Liu Ying nodded secretly, thinking of that famous chapter.

"The horse can't run fast, what should the wife do..."

Liu Ying felt that Yu Ji should have heard Xiang Yu's rambling words and felt that she couldn't take it anymore, so she drew her sword and killed herself!

On the earth platform, the trembling ceremony officials immediately shouted in unison after seeing Xiang Yu's arrival:
"The Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, begin!"
