After the backyard was stable, Yu Kun devoted all his body and mind to the production of perfume. Liu Qing planted bamboo and some lawns in the yard, and chose a place in the backyard to plant vegetables. Yu Kun was very happy to see everyone carrying water to water the vegetables.
After a lot of hard work, I decided to design a pond and a waterwheel.
Yu Kun asked his valet to dig deep into the pool at home, pump the water in the pool to the highest level through the siphon principle, and then use wooden waterwheels and water channels to deliver the water to any part of the home.
Although they are all waterwheels, Yu Kun used modern physics knowledge to make the waterwheel play a greater role. Yu Kun added an artificial power system to the ordinary waterwheel, using two people to hold two long wooden poles.
The handle rotates to continuously draw water from the pond.
The completion of the waterwheel has greatly reduced the labor intensity of servants. In the past, six or seven people carried water, watered vegetables and planted trees, but now one or two people can easily complete the task. If the male servant does not have time to turn the handle of the waterwheel, two female servants can still complete the task.
When the waterwheel was first built, everyone felt it was very novel. Ying'er, Hanlian and Feixiang also competed to rotate the waterwheel. The waterwheel did not use much force, and the three children pushed the waterwheel quickly.
Get moving.
Li Pingting, Xiaocui and Cuiwei also pushed the water wheel to test it when no one was around. In less than an hour, the entire vegetable field was irrigated by the three people. For a long time, the three people
Contracted the business of water wheel irrigation. Li Pingting regarded pushing the water wheel as a physical exercise. Watching the water in the pool being brought up by the rotating water wheel, the three of them were very happy.
After the waterwheel was completed, it immediately attracted many people to visit. Many wealthy families rushed to imitate it. Suddenly, waterwheels were rampant throughout the areas under the jurisdiction of the county and government offices. Yu Kun became the most sought-after technician. Every time he built a waterwheel,
Yu Kun would receive dozens of taels of consulting fees for the water wheel. Every time the water wheel broke down, Yu Kun helped solve technical problems. Some received technical fees, and some received valuable gifts.
When the county magistrate saw the waterwheel at Yu Kun's home, he asked Yu Kun to design one for his home. Naturally, Yu Kun would not charge the county magistrate Li Xiaoya's fee, but the county magistrate invited Yu Kun to drink.
After giving jewelry to Yu Kun's three wives, the relationship between the two of them even surpassed the original relationship between Yu Kun and Wu Bing.
With the county magistrate Li Xiaoya standing over him, Yu Kun handed over all the minor cases in the county government to the deputy catcher Fu Changjie. Fu Changjie, a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, was not the same person as Yu Kun at all. But although Yu Kun
Although he had no personal relationship with him, Fu Changjie still handled the small case in an orderly manner when he handed it over to him.
Yu Kun has his own definition of colleagues. Colleagues are people who work together. Some people can turn from colleagues into friends, just like Lu Wang; while some people have a lifelong relationship with colleagues and never interact with each other in private. The so-called Tao
Different people don't work together.
Just when Yu Kun was immersed in his inventions and perfume production, he received a letter asking for help from Fu Changjie. It turned out that Fu Changjie, while handling a case of smuggled goods, accidentally exposed Hu Kui, the Minister of Household Affairs.
His nephew Liu Yue was arrested. By the time someone reported to him, Liu Yue had already been imprisoned, and Fu Changjie's memorial had already arrived at the government office.
Li Xiaoya knew that Liu Yue was Hu Kui's nephew, but at this moment he did not dare to bend the law for personal gain, so he immediately wrote a letter and informed Hu Kui of the situation. Hu Kui wanted to save his nephew, but the law did not allow it. Once his nephew's case entered the Ministry of Criminal Justice, he would have to save his nephew.
