Villager of Daming

Chapter 23 Act generously and take a lot of money (fifth change)
Xiaqiu Village drank sheep soup at noon and killed [-] sheep. They went out to buy them last night.

More than 300 people came to help, and the village owns 550 people, some of whom are too young to eat meat.

When it was replaced by Zhu Wentian, thirty adult sheep could not be eaten by the same number of people.

Now the appetite of the common people, and then see the meat...

Even with so many sheep, the village still cooks other dishes.

Smooth tofu, fried tofu with leeks, sliced ​​scallions and eggs, green bean sprouts mixed with thousands of shreds, roasted bamboo rats with bamboo shoots, fried shredded bamboo rats with amaranth, sliced ​​salted duck eggs, fried bacon with shallots.

There are eight dishes, mutton soup is counted as soup, and the staple food is pancakes.

We don't bake pies, and we don't make steamed buns, steamed buns, flower rolls, stuffed and leavened things.

People from other villages have never seen such a waiting seat!You have to attend a wedding banquet to get it, right?The atmosphere of Xiaqiu Village!

Zhu Wentian was still sitting at the main table, and on the main table were fried mutton with green onions, lamb chops grilled by hand, belly fried in water, and lamb face grilled.

He directly grabbed a lamb chop and ate it with sticky salt and pepper noodles.

The officials didn't say anything, and they understood after the last time.

"Drink!" The head of the village poured wine for everyone: "Today, we prepared smoked bamboo rats. You will eat them if you are hungry on the way back."

He asked first, can you eat bamboo rats?If it doesn’t work, give me a reminder and change it.

"The bamboo rat is good. I saw it last time. It is so big and fat that it can be raised." Li Zhixian said that he loves to eat it.

"I came here a few days ago. Actually, I wanted to ask for one to go back to eat. I really can't save face." The county magistrate followed up.

"It's more fragrant than pork." The master book just said a word.

"I'll eat." Dian Shi came today, surnamed Wang.

The other three thought it would be beneficial to bring him along, for fear that he would report them.

The last time Zhixian went back, he gave him both trotters.

Seeing that all four officials eat, the chief is relieved. As for the yamen servants, he has no right to choose.

"Yi Chang! You made our mouths tricky. I don't know, but I thought the dishes on the table were made by which Xuancheng restaurant!"

Li Zhixian praised that there are many dishes, but the most important thing is that they are delicious.

"Incomparable, incomparable!" The head of the village was modest, but he thought in his heart, Xuancheng Restaurant would do?snort!

Zhu Wentian still left the table early, and he didn't drink alcohol.

Others ate equally quickly and had to go to work after eating. Only people at this table drank slowly.

Zhu Wentian didn't dream, he went to observe the four wells.

The drought continued, and it was time to plant rice, and the river level dropped significantly.

Beside the four wells, orange bars have been set up, a vertical stick, and a horizontal stick on top of the vertical stick.

A large stone is tied to the other end of the horizontal stick, and this end is a bucket, which is connected with a rope.

People use their body weight to drop the bucket, and as soon as they let go, the bucket filled with water comes up.

The dug well is the most convenient.

There is also a water fetching tool called thirsty bird, which cannot be used. It uses a siphon to fetch water, and the other side must be lower than the water level.

The field is lower than the water level, so if you dig a hole, if the hole is so low, won't the water come out directly?Another well?

As for the potter's wheel, it's too slow.

"Many, matching, pieces, ah! Hehehe!" Zhu Wentian said to the villagers in charge of crafts.

"One well has ten sets. When the first one fails, I will lead people to continue to work or repair it." The villagers speak with data.

"Yeah!" Zhu Wentian was satisfied, and went to look at the plowed livestock.

The harvest over there is almost done, and before the end, the animals will go to the fields, and then they have to irrigate, soak the ground, transplant seedlings, and transplant rice seedlings.

Because of the interplanting of jute, a line must be used for transplanting rice seedlings, and it will not work if it is crooked.

Last year, it was adjusted manually. This year, the hemp thread was pulled out one by one and inserted along the line.

There are knots on the line, one knot is one seedling, and the transplanting speed is faster.

Yangma Village has always had them for pulling and transporting seedlings.

Zhu Wentian observed, trying to avoid loopholes in every step.

Drought is very harmful, and if you are prepared, it is beneficial to avoid heavy rain that knocks down the rice seedlings.

In rice cultivation, when the rain is too heavy, the water cannot be released. In the end, all the intervals between the fields are washed away, and the rice seedlings fall down.

But planted together with jute, jute can play a stabilizing role, reduce weeds and pests, and increase rice production.

Turned around and found that there was no problem. He went up the mountain, and his friends were all taking a nap at the mountain temple.

He lay down, didn't wait to dream, got up again, and found a paper and pen to draw another tool for fetching water.

***
"Li Zhixian, Guanxian Cheng, Zheng Zhubo, Wang Dianshi, brothers, come and see them if you have time!"

The head of the village said goodbye to the officials at the entrance of the village, and the bamboo rat was sent out.

Ten officials, five yamen servants, and the county magistrate packed an extra portion of mutton liver in sauce.

"Yichang, we will come in two days to watch you plant rice.

After harvesting rice, planting ramie and rapeseed must be reported, and the rice covered with jute you mentioned must also be reported after we have seen it.

Remember to prepare more food, we come with an empty stomach, and we count on you for this meal.Hahaha……"

Li Zhixian responded with a smile, not afraid of poor Xiaqiu Village.

In the future, if you choose all the villages in the county to benefit one village, you must choose Xiaqiu Village.

Because in Xiaqiu Village, worrying about the country and sacrificing oneself, cherishing the people and offering utensils, being harmonious with neighbors, being kind and orderly, doing no crimes, and agreeing with words and deeds.

After seeing off the officials, the village head rubbed his hands together, showing a happy smile: "Why did our village become like this? We can eat whatever meat we want, and we dare not even dream about it. It's too scary. Where did Hanhan go?"

He was anxious to find the village guards. Hanhan always ran around when he was a child, and he was afraid when he couldn't see him.

There was such a big thunderstorm in the rainy day last year, and I had to brave the rain to find it.

Right now, Hanhan can't lose it.

Ask people, the head of the village came to the mountain temple.

"Hanhan, you haven't slept yet?" Li Zhang asked in a low voice, the other children were sleeping soundly!
"Buy, donkey, look. Hehehe!" Zhu Wentian pushed the drawings he had drawn over the small table.

"Buy, buy, buy, what is this?" The chief agreed first, and then looked at the picture.

"Well...the well car has a large horizontal gear on the top and a vertical gear on the bottom. A chain is hung on the vertical gear shaft, and water buckets are placed on the chain.

The entire chain with water buckets goes into the well, the top rotates horizontally, and the bottom rotates vertically. The water bucket is filled with water and brought out. When it reaches the top, due to the design angle, the water comes out.

This is the same as the big water wheel outside, it needs a donkey to turn it, like pulling a mill.

If you want to get out of the water quickly, put the big gear on the small gear, and a few more sets of height will do.

So day and night, unless there is not enough water in the well, but the well we dug is deep.

Use oranges in the daytime and use them at night, or use oranges for two wells and well trucks for two wells, for comparison. "

Zhu Wentian couldn't express it in one word, really not.

"Good stuff, don't you have any?" The village chief understood.

"It has been there for a long time, and it can be seen in the Tang Dynasty. Most villages can't afford it, so no one passes it on."

Zhu Wentian gave the answer, Sichuan Yanjing, there is such a thing.

It's just two mouths, one for the entrance and one for the brine to exit.

"It's too late today. Tomorrow morning, I'll go buy a donkey. The donkey pulls the mill. I'm looking for someone to do it now."

The village chief said and patted Hanhan's head: "Whatever you want to eat, ask someone to make it, or you can make it yourself."

"Hmm! Hehehehe..." Zhu Wentian nodded his head.

　The fifth update is over, please support me with monthly tickets and recommended tickets, hehehehe!
