Walking from the head of the field to the end of the field, the pockets were filled and the harvester stopped.
Zhang Daniu jumped down impatiently before the harvester stopped, urging Fang Xiaoyue to open the wooden box.
At this time, the wooden box was filled with cut rice. Although it was a little messy, it still made Zhang Daniu smile.
"Wealth! You have made great achievements! This thing is much more convenient than harvesting crops one by one."
"Fugui, can I go up and try?"
"Fugui, I'm your fifth grandfather, no matter what, it's my turn."
........
The villagers rushed to climb onto the harvester to experience the greatness of industrial power.
They are very satisfied with this human harvester.
But Fang Xiaoyue discovered many problems during this test.
For example, due to some unevenness in the paddy field, the cut rice poles are of different lengths, which will undoubtedly cause some trouble for subsequent threshing.
Of course, these problems are not big problems compared to the convenience and speed of the harvester itself.
After half a day, many villagers learned how to operate the machine cooperatively, and Fang Xiaoyue also taught Zhang Daniu how to deal with some simple problems, such as how to reinstall the transmission part if it accidentally fell off, etc.
At this point, version 1.0 of the human harvester he created has been officially put into use.
Fang Xiaoyue then worked hard to create version 1.1 of the human harvester.
This version 1.1 is more refined in the transmission system, and it has improved the wheels to make them more suitable for paddy fields and alleviate the problem of rice pole length.
However, with the release of version 1.1 of this human harvester, the vigorous summer harvest has begun.
There is no doubt that the investment of two human harvesters, although it cannot completely replace manual harvesting, has greatly accelerated the speed of harvesting summer grain.
As for Fang Xiaoyue, who still did not join in the work of harvesting summer grain, he retreated to the thatched cottage yard and started making a threshing machine.
In the past, Forsythia Village had two manual threshing machines, but in Fang Xiaoyue's opinion, these two manual threshing machines were relatively inefficient.
The most important thing is that the threshing is not complete and needs to be threshed repeatedly, which invisibly delays the time for turning and drying the summer grain later.
Besides, just two manual threshers are not enough. In the past, part of the summer grain was threshed by manual threshers, and part of it was threshed by villagers on the field dam.
In Fang Xiaoyue's world, things like manual threshing machines were basically eliminated, and all those used were electric ones.
But this thing never changes from its roots, and its threshing principle is the same.
Therefore, Fang Xiaoyue quickly designed a new threshing machine based on those two manual threshing machines.
As he used it more and more frequently, Fang Xiaoyue found that not only his ability to make items seemed to be slightly improved, but also the effect of achieving dexterity was also revealed.
The effect of achieving dexterity is: all non-combat effects related to hands +2, and all combat effects related to hands +1.
Creating items is undoubtedly a non-combat effect related to hands.
Fang Xiaoyue made the new threshing machine in just one day.
Of course, this is not only due to the acceleration of the ingenuity, but also because the thresher is basically a wooden structure, which does not require Fang Xiaoyue to spend a lot of time making metal parts.
After making five new threshing machines in succession, he stopped.
The reason was that the superiors came to inspect the summer harvest work. Zhang Daniu gained face in front of the leaders, but he did not forget Fang Xiaoyue, so he sent someone to call him over.
The superior leader is the county leader in charge of agriculture. He wears a military green shirt and glasses, and has a relatively gentle appearance.
He was very surprised when he saw the two human harvesters before.
A leader like this is not an ignorant guy like Zhang Daniu. He has visited advanced agricultural production in other provinces.
I have seen all kinds of tractors and automatic harvesters.
But this was the first time he had seen a harvester made of wood and driven by humans like this.
"Your Bencao Town is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger."
The county leader was a little shocked when he saw that Fang Xiaoyue was only a young man. After communicating with Fang Xiaoyue for a while, he patted the leader of Bencao Town on the shoulder and said with some sigh.
The faces of several leaders of Bencao Town glowed red, feeling very proud.
When the leaders left, Zhang Daniu even walked and jumped like a child.
The reason is very simple. The Eighth Brigade has done a good job in the summer harvest this time, and has caught the leadership's eye. In the future, when purchasing agricultural materials, fertilizers, etc., it will be one step ahead of other brigades.
Before the summer harvest was over, Zhang Daniu gave Fang Xiaoyue a task.
Make a batch of wheelbarrows!
Why make a wheelbarrow? This is entirely to prepare for the delivery of public grain after the summer harvest.
In the past, when the Eighth Brigade delivered public rations, villagers would carry them to the town on their shoulders.
After discovering Fang Xiaoyue's power, Zhang Daniu, as the captain, must consider the hard work of the villagers and let him contribute.
The wheelbarrow was the former glory of Forsythia Village.
At that time, several counties, including the villagers of Forsythia Village, pushed more than 100,000 wheelbarrows to support the front line and transported a large amount of food and materials, which effectively guaranteed the progress of the battle.
That’s why that victory is also called a victory built on a wheelbarrow!
In fact, even in Fang Xiaoyue's world, this thing is still exerting residual heat.
Tricycles are still a special means of transportation on many construction sites. After all, this thing can be operated by one person and is easy to load and unload. It is indeed very convenient to transport bricks, cement, etc.
It's impossible to use a large truck to pull a distance of tens to hundreds of meters, right?
In that case, the cost will be too high.
It's just that the wheelbarrows in Forsythia Village have been abandoned for too long. In addition, there are no carpenters, so most of the wheelbarrows have been scrapped. The only few remaining wheelbarrows are piled in the corner of the brigade headquarters and gathering ashes.
Fang Xiaoyue did not refuse this task.
In fact, he was quite interested in the unicycle, but he had put his interest in other aspects before and didn't know much about it. He only remembered that it was just a wheel with two pushers behind it.
After dragging out a wheelbarrow from the brigade headquarters and observing it for a while, he couldn't help but praise the wisdom of the ancients.
so amazing!
You must know that this thing was invented by the Han Dynasty two thousand years ago.
More than two thousand years ago, the ancients were able to invent such a labor-saving, flexible and convenient human transportation tool, which really amazed modern people.
Overall, the structure of this unicycle is indeed very simple.
A wooden wheel in front is connected to the wooden frame that protects the wooden wheel, just like the handle of a wooden staircase is connected to the wheel. There is a pillar under each handle to support the ground when the unicycle stops, forming a triangular stability with the wheel.
The one that is a bit more complicated is the wheel.
After all, splicing several pieces of wood into a round wheel requires both the wheel to be round enough and its structure to be strong and stable.
This is somewhat difficult for many carpenters.
But for Fang Xiaoyue, this is all simple.
When he was making a human harvester before, the wooden wheels gave him a little trouble, but after solving the problem, this problem was naturally no longer a problem.
What's more, he discovered that the effect of achieving dexterity on carpentry was even more powerful than that on metal objects.
Fang Xiaoyue felt that the structure of this unicycle was already very reasonable and there was no need to make any further improvements or adjustments.
So after asking the logging team to cut down a pile of wood, he devoted himself to the work of making wheelbarrows.
But this time, he wasn't the only one making the wheelbarrow.
There are two more helpers.
The two helpers are both educated youths. One is Li Honggang, who questioned Fang Xiaoyue when he was pumping the water pump. The other is also a carpenter enthusiast named Tian Xinguo.
These two people were not called by Zhang Daniu, but they joined on their own initiative.
The reason is very simple. Although they were slapped in the face by Fang Xiaoyue before, the two people's personalities are not so cold. On the contrary, Fang Xiaoyue has a bit of admiration for them.
Under such circumstances, it is not strange for the two of them to come over and take the initiative to help.
Fang Xiaoyue didn't mind teaching his skills to the two of them. After all, in his opinion, he was just a passerby in this small plane.
Due to the simple structure of the unicycle, Fang Xiaoyue built more than 60 of them in just half a month.
These more than sixty wheelbarrows have been a great help to the villagers of Forsythia Village.
The same two hundred kilograms of grain can be easily pushed to Bencao Town in a wheelbarrow or carried on the shoulders. Anyone who is not a fool can imagine the difference.
After paying the public rations, the Eighth Brigade's finances became richer, and at the same time, rationing was also put on the agenda.
The entire Forsythia Village, young and strong, men, women, old and young, all gathered around the warehouse, with joy on their faces.
Indeed, after working hard for more than half a year, it is harvest time, and at least for the next period of time, everyone will be able to eat a little fuller.
"Lin Dahai!"
Zhang Daniu took the roster and called out names one by one. The villagers who were called hurried over, took out their own grain bags, and handed them to Zhang Jianxin, Zhao Xiangdong and others who distributed the grains. They packed the grains and weighed them.
For the cadres of the Eighth Brigade, grain distribution is carried out twice a year, so they are very good at estimating weight.
Basically, after loading the grain and weighing it, the error will not exceed one or two kilograms.
Watching the food distribution continue, Fang Xiaoyue also became excited at this time.
Although he did not participate much in the summer harvest, the summer harvest was able to end early because of the machine he made.
For him, his heart is filled with a sense of accomplishment and happiness.
"Zhang Fugui!"
Just when Fang Xiaoyue felt a little happy, she heard Zhang Daniu's voice.
He subconsciously shouted: "Here we come!" and then ran over.
But he didn't have a grain bag in his hand. The reason was simple. He was considered the poorest villager in Forsythia Village before. All the grain he had was eaten up in a few days, and the grain bag was already dilapidated.
