There were really not enough blacksmiths in the county, so I went to Fucheng again a few days after the winter warmer.
Because many people in the county and Fucheng are paying attention to Dongnuan and Hanjianglou. When they heard that she came to Fucheng, they were quite curious and couldn't help but guess why she came.
The women gathered together and discussed nothing more than the backyard.
"Is it possible that we finally have time to prepare a banquet?"
"It's just that the day is getting hotter and hotter. I really don't want to move, but I have to."
"Who says it's not the case? If it weren't for our good relationship, I really wouldn't want to go out today."
"It's just, it's just, it's so uncomfortable to go out on a hot day."
…
The women were discussing and the men were quietly speculating.
"Are we finally ready to hold a banquet?"
"I haven't heard of it. Isn't that guy still building roads?"
"Speaking of road construction, do you know what his carts are pulling? Then why after the repairs are done... I can't tell."
"I've heard it too, I've heard it too. The road construction is extraordinary. It's said that it's not damaged by wind or rain."
…
After discussing and discussing, the discussion naturally came to the cement road.
Hanjiang Tower has just begun, but those who have been paying attention to them have naturally noticed the difference in the cement road.
In addition, none of the villagers working on the road have issued a hush-hush order. You can find out this matter just by asking.
Therefore, you know that after the cement road is built, it needs to be protected overnight or during the day. It must be guarded and cannot be touched randomly.
But once it solidifies, it will be extremely hard.
Anyway, someone quietly jumped up and found that nothing happened.
If this is a bluestone road, then the bluestone will have to shake. If it is a dirt road, the dirt should not fly or make a hole.
But, not at all.
This is amazing.
But they have only heard about this thing, but have no access to it. It is said that Hanjiang Tower and the others created it in Huiguang Village.
Some people have thought about it and want to take a look at Guangguang Village, but they are afraid of getting too close and being discovered and dealt with.
After all, Hanjiang Tower is said to be the county magistrate, and he also has the status of a heir apparent, or worse, a princess' wife.
If you really offend them, then your own fate will be miserable just thinking about it.
If you can’t observe secretly, what should you do?
Some quick-thinking people have discovered the difference and are preparing to quietly prepare some gifts and then pay a visit.
Dong Nuan didn't care about this. After she went to Fucheng, she first went to see Magistrate Xu.
After all, the connections introduced by Mr. Xu in the capital are not in vain.
The other party must know more about the city than I, an outsider, know.
After being introduced by Magistrate Xu, Dong Nuan quickly met many blacksmiths.
The requirements for warmth in winter are high, and the drawings are complicated.
Therefore, the blacksmiths needed must have strong understanding and understanding.
Of course, winter warmth is not in vain, and the money that should be paid must be given.
This research lasted from August to mid-September.
It's warm every day in winter, either in Fucheng, county town, or Huiguang Village.
Sometimes, I rode horseback to all three places in one day just to work on the steam engine.
She prepared the early drawings very well and understood various principles and so on.
Therefore, now we only need to build the fuselage and then assemble the internal parts.
Even so, the process was not particularly smooth.
Because she is the only one who understands.
Dong Nuan was quite helpless about this.
Fortunately, after a long period of hard work, by mid-September, after several experiments and improvements, the steam engine was finally successfully researched!
Not only was it successful, Dong Nuan also simply assembled the modified fuselage for them.
At this time, all the grass on the more than 300 acres of land that I planned has been removed, and now I am preparing to plow the land to open up wasteland.
Therefore, the lawnmower is not in use for the time being, and the parts for mowing the grass ahead can wait a little longer.
Now that steam engines have come out, there is no reason why manpower is needed to plow the ground.
So, let’s turn over the ground machine first.
However, at this time, Dongnuan is not too anxious.
Because mid-September to mid-October is the harvest season in Lizhou.
The people have to go back to harvest, so they are seriously short of manpower. Once the research is done, the progress will not be too fast.
You don’t have to rush too much, you can slowly carve out the final details in the warm winter.
In late September, six tillers had been successfully developed.
Whether it is coal or firewood, if the kinetic energy is sufficient, the machine can work bang bang bang.
Except for the loud noise and the overheating of the body when working, the rest is pretty good.
At this time, the road construction work was suspended. There were still people from the mountaineering team. After all, Dong Nuan had brought some people over. If there were some people from the county town who had nothing to do, they could also be hired.
On Dong Nuan's side, he led a group of women's troops to officially start digging the ground.
The villagers went back to harvest, and Dong Nuan sent all the men he brought over to the mountain group. It was harder there and required more strength, so the maids moved to their side.
Although operating a steam engine is a technical job, it is easy to do and can be done by both men and women without being picky.
Therefore, girls with relatively weak strength can also participate.
At the beginning, everyone was quite nervous.
After all, some of them don't even know how to ride a horse, so they just get on the steam engine...
Afraid, uneasy.
However, as Shi Zhu was the first to get on the machine and learn from Dong Nuan, the others slowly began to calm down.
There is not much time to study. By the end of September, Dong Nuan will lead this group of women's soldiers. After all of them have learned the skills, they can go straight into battle.
There are not many of them, only seven including the warmth in winter.
There are six machines in total, and there is one person left.
Under normal circumstances, Dong Nuan could take command, but I was worried that they would be inexperienced.
Therefore, Dong Nuan asked Shi Zhu to stay and give command, and then she set off with her people.
The six machines worked together, and the roaring sound resounded throughout most of the village.
The villagers were harvesting from a distance and could still hear the movements over there and were talking quietly, but the movements of their hands did not stop and they even swung faster.
If you finish harvesting early, you can go to work early. It only costs 20 cents a day!
Machine-based land reclamation is fast and labor-saving.
As long as there is enough fuel, it doesn't matter if the machine runs for a day.
It’s just the wear and tear of parts. Compared with cows and people who need rest, it doesn’t need it at all!
Therefore, Dong Nuan and his five maids worked together from dawn in the morning until dusk. They stopped when they couldn't see clearly.
"Princess, this thing is so fast!" After another day of work, Shi Zhu sighed softly while helping to pack up the machine.
How could it be unhappy?
In the past, when land was cleared, not even many people and cattle could be cleared in a day.
After all, mountainous areas are difficult to drive, otherwise, everyone would have done it long ago.
But now, as soon as the six machines are started, thirty acres of land are opened in one day!
Thirty acres, this is a figure that Dianthus never dared to imagine before!
