Chapter 21 Huang Yuanwai
The next morning, a rooster crowed from nowhere, and the follower Aqiang had already gotten up in the early morning.
"Master, the sweet potatoes in one acre of the field are all mature. Do you want to harvest them?"
"Harvest!"
Yang Yun jumped up directly, opened the bed board and took out the crop yield increasing agent.
Xiao Ma was still sleeping soundly, and Yang Yun took A Qiang to the fields alone.
Yang Yun decided that Aqiang would harvest all this acre of land.
Because Aqiang's innate skill is forging, for Yang Yun, it is now necessary to forge various practical tools as soon as possible.
Tools can speed up work efficiency, such as the worn-out iron hoe I used before, which is already close to being scrapped.
In one acre of field, there are about three to four hundred mature sweet potato seedlings. Yang Yun puts a drop of crop yield-increasing agent on this acre of field.
With a bang, the field seemed to burst into flames in the daytime, and then a prompt sounded to inform Yang Yun.
The effect of the yield increase agent is achieved!
"Okay, let's dig!"
Aqiang nodded vigorously and quickly started working.
Seeing that the days are getting higher and higher, the increase in farmland and the output of crops have greatly improved, Yang Yun predicts that Aqiang will definitely earn a lot of iron from digging this entire acre of land.
Moreover, even if no iron is dug out of the pit, other things will explode.
White, iron block.
White, iron block.
White, strawberry.
Green, land reclamation agent.
White, iron block.
White, pork.
……
In less than an hour, Aqiang went back and forth from the thatched house to the farmland several times.
Because there are so many items harvested, we can only transport them back and forth.
Although this is very troublesome, there is no other way.
Bang!
While Aqiang was excavating, a sound that did not often occur suddenly sounded.
Blue light!
[Storage bag: It looks dry on the outside, but it actually has a lot of things inside, including a cubic storage space.]
Ah Qiang carefully took out a pouch from the pit that was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.
Like a shriveled gourd.
Yang Yun tried to put his hand in, and instantly the bag seemed to absorb water, swallowing Yang Yun's hand, and he could not even touch the end of the bag.
"Is there such a good thing?"
Yang Yun immediately tried to put in the few kilograms of iron that had just been exploded. It went smoothly and worked!
But the disadvantage is still obvious, that is, although the bag has a large space, it cannot change the weight.
The more stuff you put in, the heavier it will be.
"Aqiang, you can take this with you, be careful not to lose it!"
"As you command, master!" Aqiang lowered his head and said.
After having the storage bag, it becomes much more convenient to explode items. There is no need to run back and forth before.
It didn't take long before various items appeared in the bag.
About one-third of the items are iron blocks, weighing an astonishing 16 kilograms!
Including what was revealed before, the total may be about 26 pounds.
There are also a variety of fruits, wood resources, stones (which can be used to build buildings), and some common meats, such as pork, chicken, etc.
What comes out of just one acre of land is likely to be worth hundreds of copper coins!
This is a very astonishing number.
Of course, there is still a lot of moisture in it. Let’s not talk about whether the iron block can be sold at a specific price, but who is the seller?
Yang Yun came up with the idea of popularizing iron tools so that every villager in the village can use tools that are not easy to break. He can also make money and accumulate wealth.
However, the technology and processes are not very mature now. If you want to manufacture in batches, you must use casting to reduce costs.
It's too early to say this now.
After finishing the scene in the sweet potato field, Yang Yun called to Pony, who had just woken up, and ordered him to plant all the last 300 sweet potato seedlings in stock.
Yang Yun and Aqiang arrived a few meters away from the thatched house.
He doesn't want to run all the way to the hillside again. It shouldn't cause any danger if he uses it carefully.
This time, the two stopped scribbling and spent more than an hour building the earthen kiln and fixing it into shape.
To this end, Yang Yun also spent a lot of tiles and bricks in his collection.
These are all bursting from the fields.
A decent earth-fired kiln has made its new debut.
The iron blocks piled up into a small mountain weigh about 26 kilograms.
It doesn't sound like much, but making an iron tool doesn't cost more than dozens of copper plates.
"Master, Aqiang is at your service. What do you need me to do now?"
"Aqiang, based on your forging experience, if these iron blocks are used in the most cost-effective manner, how many tools can be forged?"
After thinking about it, Aqiang gave the answer: "Master, I can probably make a set of hammers, hoes, iron pots, shovels, iron bowls... and even use the leftover scraps to make an iron bucket."
p>
"The original wooden barrel was leaking, and the iron barrel is indeed needed."
"Okay, let's get started."
The clanging sounds come and go, full of rhythm.
The village is very transparent. In less than half a day, the villagers learned that Yang Yun had a relative who knew how to blacksmith.
One or two people came to Yang Yun's house one after another out of curiosity.
"Xiaoyun, your distant relative is quite capable. He knows how to forge iron."
"Yes, this is my cousin. He went to the city to learn blacksmithing before and his skills are quite good."
"Oh, it's really good!"
Before he finished speaking, Aqiang took out a hoe from the oil barrel, stuck the round wooden stick in and clamped it firmly, and then a strong quenched iron hoe was completed.
The villagers praised him repeatedly.
"It looks pretty good, much sharper than the hoe made by Huang Yuanwai's blacksmith shop!"
A villager picked up the hoe, tried the feel, and tried hoeing the ground in the distance a few times. He gave a thumbs up: "It's pretty solid!"
The villagers hesitated, but finally tried to ask what they were thinking: "Brother, how much does it cost to make a hoe?"
In fact, Aqiang has just arrived, and many processes are not too mature and standardized. Now he should get the things he needs for his family first. As for doing business with the villagers, Yang Yun may not have such plans yet.
p>
Just when Yang Yun was about to decline, a harsh and abrupt sound appeared behind everyone.
"What are you talking about? Can the iron tools made by the Three-Legged Cat Kung Fu compare with those in my blacksmith shop? Let me see."
When I heard the sound, I saw that the person who came was wearing a brocade robe, which contrasted sharply with the loess everywhere in the village. He had a big belly, a fat head and big ears. He was none other than the famous landlord and squire Huang Jinlong and Huang Yuanwai in the village.
He grabbed Yang Yun's hoe from the villager's hand and looked at it with disdain: "But still, you haven't mastered your blacksmith skills yet, so you dare to challenge me?"
"Yes, yes..."
Huang Yuanwai is right.
The villagers did not dare to say anything.
Huang Yuanwai is right, can he be wrong?
His farmland is dozens of acres!
Chapter completed!
