Chapter 108 Step by Step(1/2)

Author: light purple astringency

When Jiang Changan returned home, Old Jiang was lying on the couch under the eaves. He was thin and looked very weak. The old man was not fat in the first place because too many things had happened at home recently.

Both physically and mentally, I have suffered a huge blow. Now my weight has plummeted, and I am so thin that only skin and bones are left, which makes people feel heartbroken.

Therefore, how could Jiang Changan feel guilty towards Patriarch Jiang, who was the first to pick the bad guy, and how could he not have to pay the price for doing bad things? Then who would restrain his own behavior to help others?

Of course, it depends on your own force value. If you are happy, then the world will be in chaos. Therefore, as a human being, you must abide by the rules. Otherwise, once you cross the line, someone will teach you how to be a human being. You will bear the price you have to pay at this time.

Can you afford it?

"Grandpa, I'm back." Jiang Changan entered the door carrying a bag of sickles, looked for the system and scanned it. Only grandpa was at home, and only the uncle was hiding in the room to recuperate and sleep, or he was too embarrassed to see anyone anymore.

.

Everyone else was busy with their work. Mrs. Jiang sent the cooked pottery to the villagers and paid the final payment. This time she asked Mrs. Li from the big house to help, of course for money.

The big house is like this, how can we ignore it and let the two idiots continue to do what they do? The eldest grandson and two granddaughters will be the unlucky ones.

"Chang'an, Shushen is here too." As soon as Old Man Jiang opened his eyes, he saw two little guys entering the yard at the same time. They looked like childhood sweethearts, which made Old Man Jiang laugh for a while.

"Well, the sickles are ready. There are more than a dozen of them. We have enough tools for cutting rice." Jiang Changan walked in, took out a brand new sickle, played it twice in front of Old Man Jiang, and then brought it up.

There were bursts of fierce energy.

Old Man Jiang's eyes lit up, and he wanted to pick it up and take a closer look. This was a farm tool made by his own granddaughter. It looked a little thin, but it looked quite sharp in appearance.

"It won't wear out very quickly, right?" Old Man Jiang was afraid that the small iron teeth would curl up.

"No, the material is different. The new metal element created is hard and wear-resistant. As long as it is not used to cut something as hard as wood, it will not curl."

"That's good. Rice and wheat are all soft poles and can't be cut. Such a lightweight tool won't be tiring after being used for a long time. It must be very useful." Unfortunately, he couldn't even lift his hands, so he couldn't try it himself.

one time.

"Well, grandpa, you have a good rest, and I will go to the backyard to make the wooden accessories for the threshing machine." Once the farm tools are out, she will be able to build a house properly.

"Let's drink some water before we go. Grandpa will be able to help if he rests for two days." If it hadn't been for these two blows, Old Man Jiang wouldn't have known that his health was so bad, and now he didn't have any strength in his body.

He is as old as an old man in his seventies or eighties, but he is obviously only in his fifties, and those who take good care of themselves can still have children.

Therefore, he can never be angry again. Anyway, he will be done with all his anger in this life, because his biggest opponent has fallen.

Jiang Changan nodded obediently and agreed, "Okay." He put the sickle into the room and poured a few glasses of water in the hall to drink. Of course, he would not forget Li Shushen's share.

Thinking of the group of people working hard in the backyard, Jiang Changan picked up the kettle on the table, and then the two of them walked to the backyard.

Jiang Laoer and Yao were picking soil in the backyard, and sisters Jiang Jiarong and Xingtao were helping. Of course, the children were just sensible and couldn't actually help most of them, but they still found it fun to play with the soil.

The foundation of the house was dug yesterday, and the excavated soil will be moved next door to the pottery kiln, where it can be used to bake bricks and tiles.

Jiang Laoer has used giant trucks for transportation, but the actual labor force is only the husband and wife, and the progress is still very slow.

"Mom and Dad, let's ask some people to help." Moving the soil is the next best thing. There are many other things. They have to work hard for years and months to complete the house?

In a leaky thatched house, the food collected in the summer will have to be stuffed into the small home. Will there be room for people to put their feet in the house at that time?

"Chang'an is back." Jiang Laoer was pretending to be stupid. When he saw Jiang Changan coming, he finally straightened up and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was really exhausted. In fact, he still had some injuries that were not fully healed, but he still had some injuries.

It doesn't affect his work.

You can’t let your daughter-in-law compare you to yourself, right? Isn’t this embarrassing? Men can’t be pretentious, but being tough really hurts him, so it would be best if you can ask someone to help.

"Sister." Jiang Jiarong threw the small shovel in his hand and ran towards Jiang Changan. There were no classes in school these days. The teacher asked him to write big characters. As soon as he finished writing, he ran to the backyard to play.

"Sister." Jiang Xing and Jiang Tao were so excited for the first time when they saw Jiang Changan, because this little sister was a great benefactor who helped their family get back their property.

They no longer have to go hungry in the future. Oh no, in fact, they were separated from each other and had been hungry these past few days. The feeling was really uncomfortable, so they knew how to appreciate Jiang Changan even more.

The property is now in my mother's hands, and will be handed over to my brother's hands in the future. It's great. Finally, I no longer have to listen to my father anymore. They also had a full meal at home in the morning, and their father didn't dare to talk about them anymore.

All these changes are because of Jiang Changan. Their little sister is really powerful, so they must also learn to read and become as powerful as her sister in the future.

Now there is no need to learn to read and write secretly. The sisters are studying openly with their elder brother and younger brother. Just now they were busy while letting Jiang Jiarong teach them.

But in fact, Jiarong had just started school and didn't know much about it before they did. The two sisters were very happy.

"Let's all drink some water and take a rest." Jiang Changan came with a water cup and quickly called a few people to drink water.

Li Shushen held half a bucket of water in his hand, specifically for everyone to wash their hands.

On a hot day, even if they wore straw hats, several people's faces were still red from the sun and they were sweating profusely.

This look of hard work made Jiang Changan even more determined to hire someone.

Jiang Laoer clapped his hands and walked over, "We really should hire someone. What we are building is not a thatched house. People usually hire master craftsmen to build blue brick and tile houses.

But a master craftsman is different from a small craftsman, and the price is very expensive."

But the Jiang family has more professional masters. They bake bricks and tiles by themselves, and carve doors and windows by themselves. What can others do when they come? Do they just stare?

“We don’t hire master craftsmen, we can hire people to make bricks and tiles, we can hire people to build walls, and we can hire people to build beams and eaves.

Isn’t there someone who also wants bricks and tiles? If you have time, you can come directly and use the work to pay for it.” Wouldn’t this way no one have to pay?

After seeing Lao Jiang's furnace blasting, Jiang Changan felt that no one would dare to imitate them in making pottery in the short term, right? It was even more impossible to make bricks and tiles.

"The eaves have a shape and structure, right? Can ordinary people do it?" That is a mortise and tenon craft, almost one step at a time. Not ordinary people can learn it, unless they have a foundation in carpentry, like Jiang Laoer himself.

"No technical skills are required. I have separated the drawings and each person only makes one component. No assembly is required. This makes it much simpler and ordinary people can do it."

Developing an assembly line, with one person per workstation, and repeating the same simple structure, anyone can do it, right?

"Hey, that's good, so what are you waiting for? I'll invite someone over right now. While there's no summer harvest yet and everyone still has time, let's do it first."

I believe there will be many people willing to do it, after all, you can buy good bricks and tiles without spending any money. Jiang Laoer drank the water in the cup and ran away as fast as he could.

Yao hid her lips and snickered, "Your father is exhausted and has wanted to invite someone for a long time, but he doesn't know the craft and can't ask for help.

It will be like getting amnesty and running faster than anyone else."

Jiang Changan also smiled, this father is still good, at least he is willing to do it, "My parents are both tired, just survive this period of time."

Mom, I’m going to do carpentry. I’ll make the pattern first, and then I can start working on it as soon as the hands are ready.”

It’s okay to just follow the template and follow the pattern, right?

Let’s make the wooden accessories of the threshing machine first. This is simple. After all, there is no need for carving. Just plan out the board according to the size of the drawing. The difficult part is the iron gears and bearings.

The formwork for the wooden components of the house was also made, ranging from the pillars and beams to the small mortise and tenon structure of the eaves.

All in all, it was very complicated. Jiang Changan had a thick stack of drawings, but she didn't need to look at the actual drawings to do it herself. Who gave her the magic tool of the system?

Only by completing the wooden parts can Jiang Changan concentrate on making other things, such as bricks, cement, sand and gravel, and paint.

There are too many things missing, and the time required must be calculated. If you don't have a certain logic, you really can't do it.

It would be great if there was a printer. She could print out the things in the system directly, so she wouldn't have to draw them, which is quite time-consuming.

It wasn't until after school in the afternoon that Blacksmith Jiang had made all the iron parts of the threshing machine.

Along with Blacksmith Jiang were Master Song, Hong Lizheng and others.

Landlord Shen, in particular, is like a cat that comes after smelling fishy smell. His family has many fields and he is certainly concerned about farm tools.

Landlord Shen ordered ten giant trucks, but Old Man Jiang collapsed and didn't have time to make them for him.

Now that threshing machines are about to be released, Landlord Shen will grab one or two to take home no matter what.

Landlord Shen was very optimistic about Jiang Changan. She was a disciple of Confucius Song, and she had a lot of potential.

However, everyone was blinded by the many accessories mixed together, and they couldn't get a clue from them at all. It was just two words, messy, even Master Song was the same.

"It's actually very simple, just like playing with mechas, let's go together?" Jiang smiled and invited Li Shushen and Shen Shikang, and of course her brothers.

Li Shushen raised his eyebrows. This person really wanted to drag him into trouble anytime and anywhere, but he just had to follow the example. He believed that he would be able to keep up with Jiang Changan.

Shen Shikang is also full of confidence, and he is particularly serious and serious, and he must learn from Jiang Changan, his junior sister.

"Here, let's get started." They couldn't cut wood shavings and carve it by themselves, but couldn't they do simple assembly?

Not only a few children, but also Master Song and Blacksmith Jiang were eager to try it. All the components were piled up in front of them, lined up, waiting to see Jiang Changan's steps and do it themselves.

However, it turns out that carpentry assembly is also very difficult, let alone ordinary people without any basic knowledge.

Jiang Changan was different, "Parts No. 1 and No. 3 are installed like this, No. 2 and No. 4."

The little mouth said yes, yes, but the movements in her hands were not slow at all. As the sound was heard, Jiang Changan completed the assembly of the parts in her hand one by one.

At first, everyone could keep up, but gradually some people fell behind. In the end, only Master Song and Li Shushen kept up with the pace. However, the parts were only half assembled, and Master Song couldn't do it either.

"It's true that I am not as smart as children." No wonder Jiang Changan only invited children to assemble it, because adults couldn't react in time.

Of course, it would be different if there were blueprints. Unable to follow Jiang Changan's steps, Master Song simply brought the blueprints and started exploring slowly.

Because this woodworking assembly is indeed very interesting.

It only took Jiang Changan less than half an hour to assemble a threshing machine. Li Shushen only completed 80% of it.

"This is a threshing machine? How to use it?" It looks like a car and a house, but it also has rows of teeth. It's so weird that everyone can't understand the principle for a while.

"Now, this lever can be controlled with your feet. When you step on it, you can push the lever. The lever drives the gear, and the gear drives the bearing. The bearing has power to make this big drum rotate.

As soon as the barrel rotates, the iron teeth on it can bite off the rice on the rice stalk." Jiang Changan explained verbally before letting everyone disperse.
