Lu Bu nodded, "Yes, the Quyuan plow is an improvement on the original basis to make the land cultivated faster."
Zhang Miao frowned and said, "Marquis Wen, we just changed some shapes. How can we increase the speed?"
Lu Bu waved his hand, "The Quyuan plow is ready, why don't we give it a try?"
Zhang Miao frowned and asked, "How to try?"
Lu Bu smiled slightly and said, "Of course we will cultivate it in the fields and conduct field tests."
After hearing Lu Bu's order, several craftsmen immediately found a carriage, loaded it with a curved shaft plow, and the group rushed out of the city.
Everyone walked westward along the official road. After walking for a few miles, the original wasteland on both sides of the road had been reclaimed. Not long after walking, they saw the refugee camp to the west in the distance.
When Wang Kai heard that Lu Bu was coming, he hurriedly brought people out to greet him.
Lu Bu didn't plan to go to the camp, but asked Wang Kai to find two oxen to test the effect of the Quyuan plow.
In the past, two oxen were needed to run the plow smoothly.
Therefore, Lu Bu asked Wang Kai to find two cows for experiments.
Not long after, several refugees led two cows and drove over from a distance.
Later, Lu Bu ordered the craftsmen to put the bent plow on the ground and start experimenting.
The refugee who was responsible for using the Quyuan plow had never used this object before and was a little curious for a while.
Lu Bu told him how to use it again, and then he understood.
The other two refugees hung two oxen on the plow and began to pull the plow to plow the land.
The refugee who was holding the plow was still a bit unwieldy at first and didn't know how to use it, but after a while, he became proficient in it.
Two oxen pulled a curved-turn plow and made a circle on the ground. After returning, Zhang Miao hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about the effect.
"How about it? Compared with the previous ones, which one is better?"
The refugee scratched his head and said, "I don't know if it is useful or not, but if you use the old plow to plow the land, after pulling it for a while, the two cows should be very tired, but it seems to be no big deal now."
Lu Bu suddenly said, "Untie a cow and try it with only one cow?"
The refugee shook his head, "Marquis Wen, I'm afraid a cow can't pull it."
Zhang Hu took a step forward and said, "Stop talking nonsense and untie a cow quickly."
The two refugees who were holding the ox hurriedly untied one of the oxen, used one oxen to pull the curved shaft plow, and began to plow the land.
Before they had gone far, the refugee holding the plow exclaimed, "Oh my god, it can really be pulled. How is this possible?"
In the past, two oxen pulled the plow, which was very tiring, but now only one plow can plow the land easily.
How is this possible?
When the two refugees came back from plowing the land, they came to Lu Bu and repeatedly said, "Marquis Wen, what a miracle. I never thought that a cow can cultivate the land."
Lu Bu looked at Quyuanli and suddenly said, "Untie the oxen and test it?"
Uh!
Everyone looked at Lu Bu in astonishment, and Zhang Miao couldn't help but ask, "Marquis Wen, how can we experiment by untying the cow?"
Lu Bu waved his hand and pointed at the two refugees, "You two pull the plow."
"We?"
When the two refugees heard this sentence, they almost couldn't believe their ears, "Can we pull the curved shaft plow?"
Soon, the cattle plowing the field were untied, and then tied with two ropes and placed in the hands of the two refugees.
The two refugees put the rope on their shoulders. When they heard the people behind them shouting, they immediately gritted their teeth and moved forward with all their strength.
As the two of them pulled, Quyuli actually started to move forward.
Moreover, the two refugees pulling in front suddenly discovered that although it was very difficult, it was not as difficult as they imagined.
The two men pulled the plow and went around the field. When they returned to Lu Bu, they were sweating profusely, but their faces were filled with ecstasy.
Zhang Miao hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it? Is it sinking?"
The two refugees wiped the sweat from their foreheads, raised their hands and said, "Although it's a little heavy, it can still be pulled."
Chen Gong asked with a smile, "With such a long distance, if you two pull each other, how many turns can you plow?"
A refugee raised his hand and said, "I think three or four laps shouldn't be a problem."
When everyone around them heard these words, they were immediately overjoyed.
If it were the old plow, not to mention two of them, even four of them would not be able to pull it.
Chen Gong looked at Qu Yuli and suddenly laughed, "I didn't expect that the two of them could actually pull Qu Yuli. It's great."
Zhang Miao also reacted and laughed and said, "If two people are struggling, we can use three people. In this way, even if there are no cattle, we can farm smoothly. It's great."
Chen Gong turned around, cupped his hands to Lu Bu, and said solemnly, "Marquis Wen can invent this object to reduce the intensity of farming. Although it cannot go into battle to kill the enemy, its effect is very powerful, even more powerful than weapons that can kill the enemy."
Be big."
Zhang Miao laughed and said, "In this way, we don't have to wait for more talents. As long as there are people, we can cultivate the land smoothly. It is a miracle."
Several refugees fell to their knees with a plop and held their hands in their hands, "Marquis Wen, a great talent, we are so blessed."
Hearing what everyone said, Lu Bu was immediately overjoyed and waved his hand, "As long as you think it's appropriate, immediately order the craftsmen to make more and distribute it to everyone. You must not delay farming."
When everyone heard this, they all held their hands and said, "I obey."
After receiving Lu Bu's order, the craftsmen immediately worked overtime to make Quyuan plows and then distributed them to the refugees.
A large area of wasteland has begun to grow in the Puyang area, and together with the former unclaimed land, a large area of land that can be cultivated has been formed.
Originally, everyone had to worry about not having enough oxen, but with the curved shaft plow, even if there are no oxen, as long as there are a few more people pulling it, the speed is still very fast.
With the curved shaft plow, the speed of farming has been accelerated and more land has been cultivated.
As more and more refugees join, more and more people open up wasteland.
As the population increased, various kinds of vitality naturally emerged. The refugees did not have time to go to the city. There were also many small vendors outside the city, and they began to sell goods there.
There were more and more small vendors in various places where people gathered, and gradually many markets were formed, creating a prosperous scene.
……
Xu Du.
Snap!
Liu Xie slammed the tea cup on the table to the ground, his handsome face full of anger.
"What a shame, Lu Fengxian knew that the two thieves Li and Guo were staying in Luoyang, why didn't he drive them away quickly? Could it be that he wanted to imitate Cao Mengde?"
Yang Biao, who was standing with his hands behind his back, was stunned and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, what happened to Cao Mengde?"
After hearing this, Liu Xie reacted and snorted coldly, "Zhang Aiqing, tell me why Lu Fengxian didn't drive away the two thieves Li Guo from Luoyang. Is there an ulterior motive?"
