"Lao Fang, hydraulic machinery still needs to be vigorously developed."
"In a short period of time, hydraulic power is the main method to solve the shortage of manpower."
"This creek can be trimmed to make the water flow more concentrated."
"By the way, the following counties will also implement hydraulic facilities if they have the conditions."
After inspecting the hydraulic workshop, on the way back, Song Yang said to Fang Zhe.
"Yes, Xiaguan will definitely focus on developing water conservancy facilities recently."
"We've had people explore it a few days ago. We can build a short dam on the Jing Lake side, and we can also build a small hydraulic workshop."
"If we run out of space on this side of the creek, we'll build another one on that side."
"Accommodating five waterwheels is not a big problem."
Fang Zhehui reported that he already had an idea in mind.
According to the current situation on the other side of the creek, at most three more waterwheels can be installed.
Even if the water channel is renovated to concentrate the water flow, at most two more waterwheels can be added.
There will be many places that will use water power in the future, and five water trucks will definitely not be enough.
So Fang Zhe had already thought of a response plan.
Song Yang nodded with satisfaction. After a month of training, Fang Zhe's work ability has also improved significantly.
And in the past month, Jiangzhou Fucheng has cultivated many talents.
Fang Zhe selected ten literate people to help him handle various government affairs.
After a month of running in, all the work in Fucheng can be carried out smoothly.
…
On July 19, Wang Jinshi came to invite Song Yang again.
The new and upgraded mower is completed.
Song Yang immediately followed and took a look. The blade had been widened and the iron ring had been enlarged.
It is basically the same as a modern hand-cranked mower.
Even though he traveled through that period, this thing was still widely used in Batie.
It has to be said that with advanced machinery, the work efficiency of livestock workers has indeed improved a lot.
It originally took ten people to cut grass, but now only four are needed.
With just two machines and two workers operating each machine, the efficiency is faster than ten guillotines.
This is still a first-generation phone, a modified phone.
If there are two modified machines, the cutting speed can be improved a lot.
"Your Majesty, with these two machines, we can save six workers at once."
"This will make it easier to take care of the livestock, and you can focus more on breeding the animals."
The foreman, Lao Bao, had a smile on his face.
Li Laoniu is old and has an injury on his leg, so he cannot go to the barn once a day.
Today the new mower was put into production for the first time, and the old man came with a crutch.
"My lord! This mower is so useful."
"In the past, we were busy feeding cattle and cutting hay in our yamen from dawn to dusk. I was so tired that I couldn't stand up straight every day."
"It's great now. With this thing, four people can do the work of ten, and it's not that tiring."
Li Lao Niu touched his gray beard and sighed.
Song Yang said with a smile: "Tiejiang Wang and the others are studying hydraulic machinery. If it succeeds, we can install this mower on the water truck and it will not take much effort to run it for a whole day!"
"Your Majesty cares about people's livelihood and it is really a blessing to the people!" Lao Bao and Li Lao Niu both sighed.
"Okay, we have the manpower this time. You have to do a good job in animal husbandry and breed as many animals as possible."
"This is the most important place to ensure our meat supply in Jiangzhou."
After looking at the grass for a while, Song Yang solemnly gave instructions.
The livestock workers agreed one after another and promised to complete the prince's instructions.
"By the way. We need to change the breeding method in the pig pen."
"Separate the boars and sows in the pig pen as soon as possible."
"Then castrate all the boars except for the breeding stock."
Song Yang planned to push back the matter of castrating the pigs.
I wanted to push this back last time, but the workers were so busy that they had no time to castrate the pigs.
Now that the weeding problem has been solved, six workers are now free, and the work of castrating pigs can be started.
"A castrated pig? How to castrate it?"
Li Lao Niu and Lao Bao looked at each other, not understanding what Song Yang meant.
The eunuchs have heard of what a eunuch is.
Recently, I have been following Lord Fang every day to hang out with that little rich man who is an eunuch...
As for the castrated pigs, they have never castrated them before, so they don’t know how to operate them!
"Follow what I want, the castrated pork will not smell fishy, and it will grow much faster, and it will be easier to manage. There are really many benefits."
"As for the specific method of castrating pigs and how to ensure the survival rate of pigs, I don't understand this. You can study it yourself."
"If you need herbal medicine, you can ask Doctor Fang for it."
Song Yang waved his hand and handed over the job to the livestock workers.
The main reason is that the encyclopedia only writes that the ancients had to castrate pigs when raising pigs, but did not tell them how to castrate them...
After Song Yang left, Lao Bao immediately went to find Lu Jimin.
When Lu Jimin heard that the pig was going to be castrated, he was also confused.
"This...maybe we need to use hemostatic drugs?" Dr. Lu was not sure how to use the drugs.
"Doctor Lu, the prince said that castrating pigs like this can increase pork production, and the pork does not smell fishy, grows quickly, and is easy to manage."
"We can only ask for your help in this matter."
Lao Bao is now relying on Lu Jimin.
It's okay to ask him to kill cows and sheep, but he can't do anything about castrating pigs.
After all, when the knife goes down, I will feel my anus tighten.
Just thinking about it is a thrill.
It's so exciting that your heart may not be able to bear it.
Lu Jimin was speechless, he didn't understand this either.
Looking at Li Rui on the side, it's even more nonsense.
This guy studied the big and small square pulses, which is not as good as him who plays bone setting.
"Okay then. How about we give it a try and find another way if it doesn't work?"
Lu Jimin reluctantly agreed.
"Okay, okay! Doctor Lu, let's go and try it now!" Lao Bao nodded sharply.
In order to do this job well, Lu Jimin specially prepared all the hemostatic drugs.
And almost all existing hemostatic drugs come with some.
After all, he didn’t know whether these medicines would be effective on pigs...
After getting everything ready, I went out with my medicine box on my back. I happened to see Fang Zhe and Xiao Fugui going off duty at noon.
"Master Fang."
"Rich father-in-law."
Several people met and said hello.
"Doctor Lu, where are you going? Are the workers at the livestock farm sick?"
When Fang Zhe saw Lao Bao and Lu Jimin together, he thought Lao Bao came to see Lu Jimin to treat the livestock workers.
Lao Bao Gong cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Fang, none of us are sick. Let's castrate the pigs now."
The little rich man who was looking at the scenery immediately changed his expression when he heard about the castrated pig.
These two words reminded him of the tragic past.
Lao Bao didn't notice it yet, and even suddenly thought of something.
He looked towards Xiao Fugui and asked:
"Rich father-in-law, do you know how to castrate a pig?"
Xiao Fugui turned pale and screamed:
"I know nothing! Get out! You bastard! Get away!"
"Shameless! Hooligan!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Lao Bao was confused and didn't move away, but Xiao Fugui ran away crying.
Fang Zhe had a strange look on his face, and Lu Jimin had a grimace on his face. They looked at each other and looked at Lao Bao together.
