Everyone enjoyed the delicious food and chatted for a while.
Then everyone went back to their respective houses to sleep.
The conditions on Zhuangzi's side were relatively simple, but no one picked on them.
Everyone simply washed up and then went to bed early.
Aunt Yu is on an early bedtime health plan, and others...
I’m full and I really want to sleep!
The result of consuming too much carbohydrates is that you feel dizzy and can't think about anything except sleeping.
I had a good night's sleep and it was a sunny day the next day.
In the morning, the sun was extremely hot.
Xiao Nianzhi got up early and helped Sister-in-law Guo cook mung bean porridge.
Yesterday I ate mutton and got a little angry. Xiao Nianzhi got up early and his mouth was extremely dry.
So, she was going to cook some mung bean porridge to clear the fire.
By the way, I'll get some lotus seed core tea to drink, which will also remove internal heat and make my body more comfortable.
Aunt Yu never expected that her apprentice would be ready for her before her health plan even started.
Looking at the delicious and nutritious breakfast, Aunt Yu silently thought that she wanted to be a little greedier and live to be ninety years old!
It's a new day, and everyone can't continue to be decadent, everyone has to go back to their own work.
Although Yan Changxia had already thought of finding a few pretty boys in case Lou Shen died in the battle.
However, she still hopes that the other party can live for a long time.
It's not for her, but for Lou Chen himself.
After all, you only have one life, who doesn’t cherish it?
Yan Changxia felt that she could not help with anything else, but she could go to Tai Hospital to see how the prescription ideas she had provided were going.
Tai Hospital has been researching amoxicillin since General Guo was rescued.
But antibiotics...
Not easy!
It involves a lot of chemical knowledge.
In fact, it is not that there are no chemical talents today, but there is no unified organization to assist them, or to cooperate with their research.
The final result was naturally unsatisfactory.
However, if someone can be caught, there might be a chance.
The operation of allicin is relatively simple, but antibiotics involve too many things.
Just the step of strain cultivation...
Xiao Nianzhi immediately gave up temporarily due to a headache.
However, Yan Changxia suddenly became interested and prepared to study it.
The eldest princess and Wei Zhiqiu were preparing to enter the palace to talk about the explosion of the alchemy furnace.
Yan Xingxuan also had to go to the palace to have a look, while Xiao Nianzhi went to the Ministry of Works to see the improvements in farm tools.
Everyone is busy with their own things, but the days seem more fulfilling.
Now that the spring planting has ended early, what is left to plant are various vegetables and the like.
I was busy with cement work before, and I only reminded the agricultural supervisor to improve the seeds, but the improvement of various agricultural tools was not timely.
Therefore, the seeder has not been built yet.
Xiao Nianzhi thought that he should do this by himself.
Growing vegetables and growing grains are not exactly the same, but they remain the same. It’s a matter of exchanging details and parts back and forth.
So, let’s get started!
Half of the people in the Ministry of Works are still repairing roads in the capital. Half of the remaining people go to the Ministry of War to help improve and forge weapons, and the other half maintain the daily routine of the Ministry of Works.
Xiao Nianzhi first went to the Yamen to check in, and then went directly to the outfield of the Ministry of Works.
Because there are so few people, the outfield looks quite desolate now.
At first, Xiao Nianzhi was busy on his own.
Later, several clerks could no longer carry out their work, so they came to see her and asked if they needed help.
Xiao Nianzhi is still sorting out the corresponding information.
She had been to Shanglinyuan before, not many outfields, but she had also seen the experimental fields.
Learn about today's farmland and farming methods.
On this basis, she needs to make one, or even multiple, convenient and applicable seeders.
Considering the cost issue, iron tools are definitely not suitable.
Nowadays, there is a shortage everywhere, especially in the northwest and southwest. Once war breaks out, the country's ironware must be supplied to these two places first.
Moreover, the seeder does not need to be made of iron. After all, the load-bearing issue still needs to be considered.
If it is too heavy, unless you can sow multiple ridges at one time, it will not be appropriate given the labor costs.
Hearing the clerks coming over to ask if they needed help, Xiao Nianzhi thought for a while and said, "Let's wait for the afternoon. The drawings here haven't come out yet. When the drawings come out, let's try to make it."
The people here at the Ministry of Industry must know some carpentry work. Some clerks do this on a daily basis, so what can they do if they don't know how to do it?
Hearing what Xiao Nianzhi said, everyone nodded hurriedly, indicating that they would definitely come in the afternoon.
The big pot of rice we had at lunch was not delicious, it could only be said to be barely full.
Xiao Nianzhi didn't care about this. After sorting out the information, he drew several drawings and prepared for them to make this in the next few days and then go to the fields to try it out.
This involves communicating with Lin Yuan or the Agriculture Supervisor.
Thinking of this, Xiao Nianzhi murmured in a low voice: "Looks like I have to go back to the Yamen."
But that's after the production is completed.
Their seeder has not yet been seen.
After the drawing was completed, Xiao Nianzhi checked it again.
In this way, half the afternoon passed.
There was not much time left, so Xiao Nianzhi decided to start with a seed machine for growing vegetables.
If it is easy to use and is applicable now, although there is no way to promote it nationwide, it should be promoted first inside and outside the capital. After it is proved to be effective, the people below will work harder to promote it.
In the afternoon, Xiao Nianzhi led others to make a vegetable seeder by himself.
This one made by Xiao Nianzhi is suitable for most vegetable cultivation.
Considering the problem of load-bearing, the one made by Xiao Nianzhi is not heavy. One person can push it forward and can plant three ridges of land at a time.
Of course, you can also increase the weight, which requires two people to plant six to seven ridges at a time.
This seeder is mostly based on plain land.
If it is grown in the mountains...
It's not very applicable.
But don’t think so much about it yet, don’t worry about how to use it, the real thing is to create the finished product first.
The frame of the seeder is easy to build. Everyone can get started, take their own size, and just bang it out, and then it can be connected to each other. The mortise and tenon structure can be completed without even using nails.
However, when it comes to the power unit and details, you need to grind carefully and slowly, and keep trying to see if you can match it with the machine itself.
Moreover, these are consumables.
After long-term wear and tear, there will be poor contact and loss of coordination, and you need to replace it with a new one before you can continue.
Therefore, this part of the details needs to be made into a living device that can be easily replaced at any time.
When Xiao Nianzhi drew the drawings, he spent a long time and mostly focused on these details.
Nowadays, it is different from the modern times. You can nail it directly and nail it all the way through.
All kinds of crankshaft bearings are put up and all are solved.
now……
There is nothing, it is all done manually, which requires more time and patience!
