None of us carpenters have developed anything more advanced.
You, a young man, can do that?
So when Liu Zheng said hello, all the carpenters in Cao's carpentry workshop volunteered.
There was a crash again, and everyone followed Liu Zheng back to the carpenter's workshop. Liu Zheng thought for a moment and asked Cao Zhen to help prepare paper and pen. It was still a bit difficult to draw pictures with this ancient brush. So Liu Zheng had already been in the carpenter's workshop.
Made a pencil all of my own...
Rub rub rub.
An exquisite drawing was drawn by him. He has been working hard to search the memories of later generations, and after several revisions, the drawing was completed.
Everyone was shocked.
"Master Liu, is this a pen?"
"This painting skill is quite impressive!"
"What kind of painting is this?"
A group of people exclaimed in surprise.
Liu Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He called some carpenters and asked, "Can you understand?"
The carpenters nodded in confusion.
Liu Zheng had already drawn more intuitively, trying to be as detailed as possible. He described every part of the new farm tool in detail, and in a graphic way. Even the carpenters who had never read a book nodded.
"Very good, let's make it separately!"
The thing has not been assembled, and no one knows what it is.
But when the carpenters saw this figure, their eyes lit up. Because the thing Liu Zheng wanted to build was actually similar to a straight-column plow! But it was a super-improved version of the straight-column plow.
That is Quyuanli!
The curved-column plow was originally invented by the Chinese working people in the Tang Dynasty. The biggest difference between the curved-column plow and the straight-column plow, which had been the dominant farming tool for a long time, is that first of all, the straight-column and long-column plows were changed to curved-column
, short shaft, and a plow disc that can rotate freely is installed on the shaft head, which not only makes the plow frame smaller and lighter, but also facilitates U-turns and turns, flexible operation, and saves manpower and animal power.
It can be said that in the history of Chinese farming, the emergence of the curved shaft plow represents the true maturity of farming tools.
Therefore, this is Liu Zheng’s first step in transforming farming tools!
To use a simple analogy, the application efficiency of a curved shaft plow is even three times higher than that of a straight shaft plow!
This is quite scary.
Click click click.
People were also watching and talking about it from time to time.
Everyone is guessing what Mr. Liu is going to come up with? Many people are actually waiting to see a joke, and among them, Cao Zhen is naturally included.
A full half hour passed.
It took several carpenters to make the parts in their hands.
"Ready to assemble!"
Liu Zheng said excitedly.
The carpenter quickly assembled the curved shaft plow. At this time, Liu Zheng had to admire the ancient carpenters for their exquisite craftsmanship and their uncanny craftsmanship. This craftsmanship was much better than that of the carpenters of later generations.
"alright!"
Thus, the world's first curved shaft plow appeared in front of people.
The crowd buzzed and gathered around.
"Mr. Liu, what is this?"
"It looks so different!"
"But, is this possible?"
It looks like a thing, but because it is much lighter than a straight-shaft plow, people are suspicious of it. According to the old man's understanding, this kind of plowing tool must be very heavy to be able to plow the land.
That's right.
"Is that possible?"
Liu Zheng laughed loudly: "You'll know if you try it, right?"
