The important thing is that the water wheel has started to rotate under the impact of the water flow.
It doesn't matter if the waterwheel starts turning, what's important is that it brings up tubes of water as it turns.
Then tubes of water were poured into the wooden ditch that stretched next to it... and the water flow was led into the ditch with a "swishing" sound.
The originally dry and cracked ditch greedily sucked the river water, and after a while it gradually came back to life as if it was alive.
Everyone was stunned, everyone stared at the waterwheel, even Xu Ying was no exception.
After a while, Xu Ying finally regained his breath. He stared at Shen Bing as if he was frightened and asked:
"Engineer, then... what is that?"
"Did you make that?"
Shen Bing cupped his hands and replied:
"Internal history, this object is called a waterwheel. It was made by my subordinates."
Xu Ying asked again:
"Can it really scoop water up to a high place on its own?"
As soon as Xu Ying asked this question, he immediately knew that he was asking the wrong question.
Isn't it obvious that this has been done?
So Xu Ying immediately changed the question:
"How did you do it? Why is it so..."
Shen Bing replied:
"It's actually quite simple."
"It's nothing more than using the impact of the water flow to make the waterwheel rotate."
"When the water wheel turns, it can bring up the bamboo tube."
"Then……"
Shen Bing spread his hands towards the water tanker, meaning that this is what happened.
The principle is actually very simple, the key lies in whether you can imagine it or not.
Shen Bing said it easily, but Xu Ying was shocked beyond measure.
He looked at Shen Bing and then at the waterwheel.
The next second, he took off his shoes and went down to the river to observe the waterwheel up close, regardless of the disciples' obstruction.
Wang Jian hurriedly called his soldiers to go down to the river to protect him. At the same time, he glared at Shen Bing:
"Why didn't you say something like this earlier?"
"Let us worry about the drought out of thin air."
What Wang Jian didn't say was:
You guy also made Xu Ying stumble, look how embarrassed you are for everyone?
Shen Bing looked aggrieved:
"General, I don't know how important this waterwheel is!"
"So..."
These words almost made Wang Jian cry.
This guy can do it.
Don’t you know the importance of waterwheels?
This thing can move water to high places without manpower.
The drought in the three counties depends on it, the life and death of the people in the three counties depends on it, and next year's battle depends on it!
Don’t you know that waterwheels are important?
Isn’t this a shabby person?
Yang Duanhe held back his laughter and whispered to Shen Bing:
"Later, be more humble in your words, so as not to cause the internal historian to lose face."
Shen Bing quickly replied:
"My subordinate understands."
Xu Ying, who was in the river, watched the waterwheel rushing by, feeling unable to calm down for a long time.
Good stuff, good stuff!
It can actually use the momentum of water flow to rotate and lift the bamboo tube.
Look at the many bamboo tubes scattered around, all at an inverted angle.
This allows them to enter the water with their openings facing down when they go down, and when they go up and out of the water, they will fill the tubes with river water.
Then it gradually rises and pours water outward due to the inclination angle.
The river water then poured into the wooden ditch below.
This cycle continues over and over again, and the river water will continue to enter the ditch.
Xu Ying was stunned.
This waterwheel can divert water and is also interesting and fun. Look at the oranges I made...it's still thousands of miles away from this waterwheel.
Zhang Geze, who was waiting on the side, had his entire face darkened.
Only then did he understand what his expression and eyes meant when he taught Shen Bing Jue just now...
That is not ignorance, but helplessness against ignorance.
And that ignorant person is precisely Zhang Ge.
After a while, Xu Ying finally went ashore under the persuasion of his disciples.
At that time, Xu Ying's brown clothes were soaked and dripping with water everywhere, but Xu Ying was very happy.
As soon as he landed on the shore, he happily grabbed Shen Bing's hand, looked at Shen Bing up and down, and said:
"The engineers are so talented that they can make such an exquisite waterwheel."
"With this waterwheel, why worry about the drought not being cured? Why worry about not being able to farm? Why worry about the harvest next year?"
"Master Engineer, please pay me your respects..."
After saying that, he really wanted to bow down and salute. Shen Bing hurried forward and helped Xu Ying up:
"The internal history has defeated Shen Bing. How can Shen Bing afford such a great gift?"
Xu Ying raised his hand firmly and replied:
"You can take it, you can take it!"
"With this waterwheel, not only the victims of the three counties, but all the people in the world will benefit from it."
"Xu Ying thanked the engineers on behalf of the people..."
As he was about to bow down again, he was naturally stopped by Shen Bing, Wang Jian and his entourage.
At this time, the bosses were still following Xu Ying, remembering his words, and Yang Duanhe waved them away angrily.
Then Xu Ying changed the topic and looked at Shen Bing with a smile:
"I wonder where the engineer is from and where he lives?"
Shen Bing replied:
"My subordinate is from Nanzheng, Hanzhong. Master Xun is the previous engineer."
Xu Ying said "Oh":
"No wonder the craftsman is so good at woodcraft."
"I wonder if an engineer would like to join a farmer's family?"
Shen Bing couldn't help but say "Ah" in surprise.
Is there such a thing as pulling people in?
Shen Bing had some knowledge of this farmhouse in modern times.
I know that this farmer belongs to a school of conscience.
Although most of its members were intellectuals, that is, the "official" class, they took the initiative to join the countryside.
Because they feel that if they don’t know how to farm, how can they develop agriculture?
Even the lifestyle is based on farmers:
Wear straw sandals, weave mats, and live in mud houses.
He does not seek high-ranking officials or generous salaries, but only seeks a house and a piece of land to farm and benefit the people. He has an extraordinary and refined style.
Just like the promise in front of him, even though he was appointed as the governor, he still wore brown clothes and straw sandals.
You must know that the official rank of Zhi Su Neishi is not small. His rank of two thousand stones is the same as that of county guard and county lieutenant. This dress is inconsistent with his status.
Shen Bing respects farmers, but he really wants to join a farmer to farm...
forget it!
Shen Bing's goal is the stars and the sea. Although farming is independent of the world, in this troubled world, he cannot even control his own life.
"Engineer, if you devote your skills to farming, you will definitely shine and benefit all people!"
"The army is a place of killing. Why should we use our skills to create a career?"
"Please think twice about where to go..."
Wang Jian saw that this style of painting was wrong. If Xu Ying really deceived Shen Bing into joining the peasant family, wouldn't it be a great loss to the Qin army?
Immediately, they asked the soldiers and disciples to help Xu Ying go down and change clothes, because they were worried that Xu Ying would catch a cold.
But Xu Ying was still unwilling to give in. He still shouted to Shen Bing from a distance:
"Engineer, I'll discuss it in detail later."
"Why don't I prepare a small amount of wine and invite the craftsman to come and talk to me next to the house?"
…
The sound gradually faded away, and finally disappeared.
I thought Wang Jian would find excuses to hold Xu Ying back so he wouldn't let him brainwash Shen Bing again.
Yang Duanhe looked at the direction Xu Ying left, shook his head and smiled:
"This farm has been adhering to the principle of 'come and go as you please' since its establishment."
"Now, you have made an exception because of you, and you still promised..."
However, Yang Duanhe finally added in a low voice:
"Don't listen to his nonsense. There is no such thing as 'making a career through skills'."
