Mohist Tang

Mohist Family test Tanaka.

Four Mohist Family Son brothers form a circle, the middle one is about one foot long iron rod, the bottom of the iron rod is a cylinder one and a half feet long and half a foot in diameter, the bottom of the cylinder It seems to have been cut in half by a sharp tool, leaving a pointed head.

This is a common tool for digging wells and soil in the 80 years of later generations in the countryside. Mo Dun drew the drawings, and the skilled craftsmen of Mohist Village easily created it.

Mo Da holds two thick wooden sticks in his arms, and the thick hemp rope is tied between the two sticks. The hemp rope entangled the iron rod over and over again, until it withstood the wooden rod, and divided the wooden rod into four halves just right, each moved towards one direction, a Mohist Family Son brother held one head, and this one is simple The well drilling tool has been completed.

“Hey!”

Under the command of Mo Da, the four Mohist Family Son brothers used the tip of the cylinder with the power of a wooden stick, and the Xiang Xiang was already soaked. On the ground, with force again and again, the moist soil is filled into the cylinder, and every time the cylinder is lifted out, a cylinder of soil can always be brought out.

Soon, the iron rod of ten feet long sinks into the ground at a speed visible to naked eye. When the iron rod has been submerged until the chest is high, Mo Da picks up another iron rod of ten feet long The steps of connecting up, pressing down, and lifting soil are repeated again.

“Water is coming out!”

The groundwater level in ancient times was very high, even if it is now extremely dry, when the first iron rod was completely submerged in the soil, the soil was raised again There is already a state of thin mud, which is a sign of water.

After the water comes out, it has a certain impact on the soil lifting, and the hardness of the soil is correspondingly softer. Soon the second iron rod is also submerged in the ground, and the third iron rod is connected again.

It wasn’t until the third iron rod was mostly submerged in the ground that the well-drilling work gradually came to an end, and a deep well 30 feet deep was completed in just one hour.

Fang Xuanling and Li Shimin were also dumbfounded at the speed of drilling wells in Mohist Village. Drilling a well in ancient times was not an easy task.

A good well needs to be excavated first, and then a slope channel is digged from the side, leading to the underground, and it should not be too deep. If it is too deep, it is prone to lack of oxygen. Secondly, the water level in this era is very Its so high that its impossible to dig under water.

After the water is discharged, the well wall will be reinforced to cautiously fill in the channel of the well dug. When a well was down, there was no impossible to finish it in three or five days, but the well in front of me was dug in one hour.

“Is this dug?” Li Shimin didn’t care about the mud, walked up to the well head and looked at the well head which was only half a foot wide. He couldn’t help being frowned. The well was really small. It is basically impossible to put the bucket in.

Mo Dun looked at the newly drilled well head, satisfied nodded and said: “Replying to his Majesty, this is only the 1st Step, and the well needs to be cleaned next.”

“Wash the well?” Fang Jun and Fang Xuanling looked at Mo Dun dumbfounded. They had heard of washing hands, bathing, and washing clothes, but how to wash the underground well? As for Li Shimin, he is already used to the new words that Mo Dun pops out of his mouth from time to time.

“Uncle Fang did not know that there is a lot of mud in the water now. If the mud is not cleaned out in time, it will block the water hole in the well, which is not conducive to water flow.” Under Mo Dun’s explanation The three of them suddenly realized.

“Then how can I get the muddy water out, such a small wellhead, I can’t put a wooden barrel at all.” Fang Jun asked Li Shimin who had been in the heart for a long time.

Mo Dun mysterious said with a smile: “This is the top priority of this experiment. Mohist Village will use a new type of tool to continuously draw water from this well head to the inside of this well The water became clear.”

In the curious eyes of the three, Mo Da quickly built the well head with blue bricks. Two Mohist Family Son brothers carried two zhang half-length iron pipes. , The other two are carrying a strange-looking Tie Family guy with a long handle.

If someone in later generations is here, they will definitely recognize it. This is the most common water extraction tool of the eighty-90s generation that has been eliminated in later generations-Fluid Pressure.

Put two zhang long iron pipes into the well, connect the upper end to the bottom of Fluid Pressure, simply seal it with mud, and then use wooden wedges to fix it firmly on the ground. One Fluid Pressure is already it is done.

“Is this the water?” Fang Xuanling couldn’t understand what Mo Dun did.

“The last step is needed.” Mo Dun took a bottle gourd from Mo Da and poured the prepared water into the Fluid Pressure port.

Fang Jun stroked his sleeves, grabbed the Fluid Pressure handle, and pressed it down one by one. This guy is very powerful, and this job is suitable for him.

No more than two or three times, under Fang Juns regular pressure, large stocks of muddy water drained from the fluid pressure outlet, along the pre-arranged gully of Mohist Village, gushing away , Flows to the thirsty land.

“It’s done!” Mo Dun smiled satisfied.

Looking at the water mixed with yellow mud, Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling did not have the slightest dislike, reached out and took a handful of yellow mud water, watching the cold water in the water, the ecstasy in their hearts could no longer be suppressed. live.

Feasible, this method is absolutely feasible!

All the steps of Mo Dun are unreservedly displayed in front of the two people. It is convenient to drill wells. The material used in Fluid Pressure is iron, which is nothing more than the cost of iron material that’s all.

Moreover, it uses manpower. For farmers, the most indispensable thing is strength. As long as they can eat enough, it is worth the effort.

“A Fluid Pressure can irrigate about one acre of land. If you add water diversion tools such as bamboo and copper pipes, as long as it can meet the water needs of two acres. If you drill a few more wells , As long as a family is not lazy, as long as it can guarantee a harvest of five or six acres every year. Mo Dun said confidently.

“Six acres!” Li Shimin laughed heartily, feeling extremely happy. The first priority for drilling wells must be fertile land. If a family member can have six acres of land to ensure income from drought and flood, that means saving food and frugality in a disaster year. Can live on.

The scariest thing about the disaster year is that there is no harvest and people can’t survive.

“In a few years, when the Mohist Village experimental field develops a good variety with a yield of six dans per mu, the family can survive prosperously by relying on six acres of fertile fields.” Mo Dun pointed to the Mohist Family Experiment Tian said proudly.

“Okay!”

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling were so excited that they couldnt help themselves. If each household could be self-sufficient, they would pay 34,000 jin of food every year, unless they encountered a force majeure disaster. , The arrival of the Great Tang period of prosperity can be expected.

Fang Xuanling looked at Mo Dun with admiration, and then looked at his son who was struggling to press the water, he couldn’t help but lament, it is precisely comparing oneself to others will only make one angry.

Fang Er was also speechless for a while. There are indeed many surprises following Mo Dun, but the biggest disadvantage is that a child from another family is in front of him, and his sense of existence is almost zero.
