After placing the water wheel on the stand and installing it, the water wheel did not rotate in circles. It still stayed there steadily without any movement.
This is because the water flowing down from the top does not fall on the leaves of the water wheel.
If it cannot fall on the leaves, it cannot provide kinetic energy, and the water wheel will naturally not rotate.
Of course, this is not because Mao Er made a big mistake after holding the ruler to measure for a long time and determined the position of the water wheel wrongly, resulting in the current embarrassing situation.
It's because there are still some devices that are not installed.
At Mao Er's signal, many people continued to dig and build pillars in this pool.
From the water wheel, go to where the water flows down.
The pillars were erected very high, almost level with the shore where the water flows down.
After the pillars were erected, someone came over carrying something.
This thing is a large tree trunk cut vertically from the middle with a saw.
The diameter of the cross-section is nearly one meter, and the overall length is nearly two meters.
The wood in the middle of the trunk has been chiselled and hollowed out, somewhat like a primitive canoe made by a tribe.
But unlike the canoe, both ends of this piece of wood have been completely chiseled away.
If this description is not vivid enough and is not easy to understand, you can also think of it as half of a hollow cylinder split from the middle.
After this thing was carried over, Mao Er asked people to carry it to a row of piles that had just been erected. One end of it was placed on the bank where the water was flowing downward, just facing the water outlet.
Of course, in order to facilitate the installation, before doing these things, Maoer first asked people to use a copper shovel and other tools to cut off the water flow upstream, and used a temporarily excavated ditch to lead it to the side.
After doing this for a while, the channel made of tree trunks was fixed to the tree stump, and the interface was well sealed with stones, mud and other things.
"Okay, let's shovel the soil away!"
After finishing this thing, Mao Er conducted a careful inspection.
After seeing that there was no problem, he opened his mouth and said this.
So someone went up to seal the opening of the side channel, and shoveled away the soil blocking the main road.
After the hole was shoveled open, water flowed out along the hole, and then followed the wooden channel supported by it to the top of the pool. After the flow reached the end, it fell down.
The heavy water column carried the force of the fall and crashed down, landing on the leaves of the water wheel.
Such force directly smashed the leaves of the water wheel downwards.
While rotating downward, it also drives the water wheel to rotate along with it.
Then the water falling down fell on a new leaf.
The water wheel rotates one leaf after another, and the entire water wheel rotates accordingly.
Seeing the water wheel spinning continuously under the influence of the water flow, and the square wooden sticks mounted horizontally rotating on the horizontal axis of the water wheel, the people of the Qingque tribe who gathered around the edge of the water pool to witness the miracle couldn't help but exclaim.
A round of cheers.
Some minors squatted on the side, eyes wide open, looking at the water wheel that was constantly rotating driven by the water flow in great amazement.
At this moment, their surprise and love were no less than that of a particularly famous scientist when he saw a windmill as a child!
"Install the water buckets too! Install all three water buckets!"
Looking at the water wheel that was constantly rotating driven by the water flow, Han Cheng also looked extremely happy.
After a while, he said loudly to Mao Er and others.
At this time, he couldn't wait to see the water wheel drive three water buckets to work at once!
He is not the only one who has this wish, Mao Er and other people from the Qingque tribe also have this idea.
So after hearing Han Cheng's greeting, Mao Er and the others, who were looking at the water wheel spinning rapidly driven by the current with joyful expressions on their faces, immediately took action.
In order to facilitate the installation of the next things, some people were asked to shovel the opening on the side of the water channel with copper shovels at the first time, and then used stones, soil and other things to open the main channel.
Seal it and divert the water to one side.
However, what happened next made everyone, including Han Cheng, dumbfounded.
The water wheel is running normally, and the three supporting water drums are also normal and can be used.
However, these two things cannot fit together at this time!
Because the place where the water dam will be installed is a water pool...
The height difference between the water surface of the pool and the axis of the water bucket is almost two meters.
With such a big gap, the two cannot be put together anyway.
Moreover, even if they can be installed together, it still won't work.
Because the place where the water bucket is installed is a pond, the person responsible for pounding the rice cannot be allowed to take off his bare feet all the time and stand directly in the pond while soaking in the pounded rice, right?
Let’s not talk about whether people can bear it or not. If this operation is not done well and the rice is thrown into the water, the matter will become very serious and you will not be able to get it back even if you rub it!
Beside the pool, it became very quiet for a while. Everyone who was very excited just now and wanted to see the fruits of victory immediately was speechless at this time.
He bent down and held the cat ears of a water bucket, his eyes kept looking up and down at the surface of the water and the rotating axis of the water bucket in mid-air, and he felt a little confused for a moment.
He never expected that things would go so wrong at this time.
How can I pretend to be this?
"God, Son of God, this, this..."
After a while, Mao Er turned to look at Han Cheng, pointed at the water of the pool, and spoke in a daze, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Han Cheng also put his hand on his forehead. Who would have thought that at this time, he would actually do something like this!
Sure enough, there are many things that cannot be forgotten at all. If one area is not considered thoroughly, things will go wrong and things will not be completed!
"Build a platform from here, build it directly from the pool, and connect it to the shore here. After the construction is completed, the water dam will be supported on this platform."
Han Cheng pointed to the water pool and said to Mao Er, who was completely confused by this unexpected problem, and gave his own solution.
After building a platform here, the problems encountered in the installation of water dams can be perfectly solved.
Moreover, with this platform, people do not need to soak in water when pounding rice.
Even if you accidentally spill the rice, with this platform, you don’t have to worry about it falling into the water and not being able to get it out!
Mao Er was stunned by this unexpected situation. After hearing what Han Cheng said, his eyes suddenly lit up!
The more he thought about it, the brighter his eyes became, and the confusion just now disappeared.
yes!
This place is too low and is full of water, so there is no way to install a water dam. You can also build a platform directly from here!
By building this platform, wouldn’t all the problems be solved?!
The Son of God is the Son of God! The brain reacts quickly!
To be able to come up with such a good solution in such a short period of time is something that makes people feel extremely admirable!
Mao Er was filled with wonder and admiration.
Mao Er, who was originally a die-hard fan of Shenzi, became even more die-hard now and admired Han Cheng even more. His outpouring of admiration was like a river!
After expressing his deep admiration, Maoer, Han Cheng and others quickly finalized the plan to build the platform.
At the beginning, someone proposed to use stones and soil to build the platform, but this plan was rejected by Han Cheng.
Building it this way is too cumbersome and requires too much manpower and material resources, making it uneconomical.
It is better to just use wood or planks to build something convenient and easy to use.
After the construction plan was determined, many people were busy working on these things non-stop.
Some people selected and processed the wood, while others went down to the pool to clean the foundation.
Amid the hustle and bustle, thick tree stumps were transported one by one and erected firmly in the pond.
The beams one after another firmly connect the tree stumps erected here, making them into a whole and extremely strong.
After these were completed, someone began to lay the thick wooden boards on top.
The wooden boards were spread out one by one, completely covering all the gaps.
Bronze nails are used to connect the wooden boards to the wooden beams.
When the last copper nail was smashed in with a hammer, the platform built in the air, mostly above the water pool, was declared complete.
One end of the platform is connected to the shore, and people can come up directly from the shore.
The entire platform is three meters wide and four meters long, totaling twelve square meters, which is considered very spacious.
Install at least three water buckets on it for pounding rice, and there won't be any problem if people operate on it.
After the platform was built, the impatient Qingque tribe members immediately moved the three water buckets that had been built before and transported them to the edge.
After finding their corresponding positions, adjusting the distance between them and the crossbars on the wooden beams, they fixed them on the platform.
"Put the water over here!"
After fixing the water bucket and carefully checking that there was no problem, Mao Er, who had already shouldered the beam, shouted loudly to the people who were holding copper shovels and guarding the upstream ditch.
After receiving the news, these people who were guarding there with copper shovels immediately began to take action. With copper shovels, they shoveled the main channel and blocked the secondary channel.
As soon as the channel was unblocked, the rushing water immediately flowed along the wooden water tank set up, and finally fell into the water wheel below.
The water wheel installed there immediately began to rotate.
The water wheel rotates, and the wooden shaft also rotates.
The three short horizontal logs mounted on the wooden shaft also rotated and were struck in a row, with their tail ends raised high above the water barrier.
"Bang~"
"Bang~"
"Bang~"
Continuous sounds sounded, and the three water buckets lined up in a row, under the control of the crossbar installed on the wooden shaft, rose and fell one after another, making a "bang bang" sound, which looked extremely rhythmic.
Under the impact of the flowing water, the water wheel continues to rotate, driving the crossbar, and continuously moving the three water buckets, causing them to continuously rise and fall.
Seeing the rising and falling water buckets, the people of the Qingque tribe who gathered around to watch all showed excitement in their eyes.
Among them, the Jinguancheng carpenter group headed by Mao Er was the most excited and delighted!
After all, this brand new, more advanced tool for pounding rice was born in their hands!
The circles under Mao Er's eyes were red, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.
What happened this time was even more meaningful to him!
This was the first time that he and Shenzi made a brand new and not simple tool under the guidance of the tribe's number one carpenter and his master Lai!
This is the greatest affirmation of his ability!
It has a milestone significance in his life!
Han Cheng looked at the three water buckets that were continuously moving under the power of the water wheel, and the smile on his face was particularly bright.
With a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment in my heart, my whole heart became much more relaxed.
"Son of God! Son of God!"
"Son of God! Son of God!"
I don’t know who started it, but suddenly there was a voice calling for the Son of God.
At first, there were only one or two sounds, but the sound quickly became louder.
In just a moment, they became one piece, full of enthusiasm.
Everyone shouted loudly and looked at Han Cheng eagerly. Some people even kept waving their arms and jumping.
In this way, we express and express our inner joy and excitement, as well as our admiration for the Son of God.
Han Dashenzi is also a person who has seen big scenes. He has experienced too many similar scenes, so he is not panicked at all.
He did not immediately stop the cheering of everyone in the tribe, but allowed everyone to cheer here.
After doing this for a while, he stretched out his hand and pressed it down to signal everyone to quiet down.
"This is just a small thing, don't do it like this."
Han Dashenzi smiled slightly, shook his head to one side and said in a very relaxed and casual manner.
It was as if this new type of water trap was particularly easy to make, and it was done with just a casual wave of his hand. He was so tired that his hair fell out, as if it had never happened before.
When everyone saw this, the admiration in their hearts became even stronger!
The die-hard female fans, represented by Han Youyue, have stars in their eyes!
This is their divine son!
He has done such a big thing, but he doesn't care at all, who else has such magnanimity!
