Rose Town.

Blacksmith Morse's home.

"Butler Ryan, can the heavy plow you designed like this really plow the land?" Morse, a strong blacksmith, stared at the farm tool pattern on the design drawings and said in confusion.

"No need to ask so much. You just need to change the heavy plow to this way as required. I will have someone take it to the field to try it."

"...Okay, I will make one for you in three days."

Morse nodded, took out an iron ingot, and started to beat the scorching blacksmith's stove.

Zhou Ming went to the homes of several carpenters in the town and guided them to make some farm tools he designed step by step.

Three days later, the new heavy plow of the blacksmith Morse was also ready. The biggest change in this heavy plow was that two concave and upward plow walls were installed on the original conical plowshare, which was very strange in shape.

In addition, Zhou Ming also moved the two hard birch ox yokes that the carpenters had made in the past few days to a farmland, and asked someone to bring two strong ox yokes, put the ox yokes around the neck, and tied the two thick hemp ropes that extended the tail of the ox yoke to the pull handle of his newly designed heavy plow head.

"Lian, this heavy plow requires at least four strong cows to pull it. How can two cows move it?"

Donnie, who came to watch the new farm tool plowing experiment, stood on the ground and really didn't believe that the new plow designed by Zhou Ming could turn over this farmland with very large soil stickiness shortly after it thawed.

"Let's get started."

Zhou Ming did not answer, asking the farmer who was controlling the new heavy plow to wave his whip, drive the strong cow and move forward.

"This...how is this possible?"

Donnie's eyes suddenly widened, his face full of shock. The heavy plow actually moved. Driven by two strong oxen, he pulled the new heavy plow and quickly plowed the soil in the farmland. The two strong oxen walked vigorously, as if it was very relaxed. The ditches plowed under the plowhead were even deeper and better.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Ming, who was standing by, nodded and said, "It is similar to what I expected. After adding a wall to the heavy plow, it saves at least 50% of the pulling force for the ox. After putting a more powerful ox yoke on the neck of the ox, it saves 30%-40% of the physical strength for the ox. Together, the heavy plow that originally required six oxes to pull, but now there are only two oxes..."

After hearing this, Donnie was still shocked, but he heard Zhou Ming say, "Spring is approaching, and there is no extra time to develop light plows. If you develop light plows, you may only need a strong cow to move. There is also a horse-pulling plow. Although the strength of the horse is not as strong as a cow, the plow speed of the two horses can reach twice the speed of the ox."

Donnie quickly interrupted him and said, "Lian, have you ever thought about these terrible things you invented are to cultivate all the land you have obtained from Glen, which is not enough to plow these oxen oxen. What kind of horse-drawn plows do you have to create? I probably won't use it."

Donnie felt that his heart could not bear it anymore. Ryan made improvements and inventions on heavy plows and ox yokes, and he tripled the efficiency of using Glen's oxen. But he said there was still more room for improvement?

However, these stimulation alone is far from enough. Ryan asked the farmer beside him to push a strange-shaped farm tool and explain to him:

"The improvements made only in land tilling efficiency are not enough. Donny, look at this thing. This is the cart I invented. It can replace the seed sowing method used by farmers to sow seeds. Just adjust the seed outlet below and push the cart, and you can automatically complete the sowing work. Not only that, there are two moving wood chips on both sides of the cart, which can complete the soil covering after sowing... With this cart, a farmer can complete the sowing of 100 acres of land in a day."

"This...this..."

Looking at the car in front of him, Donnie's body trembled and pointed at Zhou Ming and said, "Lian, you want all the farmers in Gran to be lazy, you..."

He no longer knows what to say.

Zhou Ming shook his head with dissatisfaction and said, "Those are not enough. When it comes to the autumn harvest, I have to invent the horse-pulled harvester as soon as possible. This kind of harvester can be driven by horses and can complete hundreds of acres of harvest work in a day. There are still many horses that Glen has. Just prepare ten harvesters, and all the wheat fields Glen has basically no need for manpower to harvest."

There are also threshing machines that replace human power, windmill mills that drive wind power... Zhou Ming plans to take the path of agricultural mechanization from sowing to harvesting, which completely replaces human power with one-stop animal power wind.

In addition, he has been allocated and improved for more than ten years, and the "pesticide" prepared by using a pyrethrin contained in the chrysanthemum - an unprecedented agricultural revolution will take place in this small territory.

Now Zhou Ming just wants to do a good job on the small stage of Glen Leader!

"You, no wonder you were so confident before. You had already prepared for any agricultural reform. Now, the farmers in Glen can lie down at home after a few days of farm work, waiting for the big harvest in the fields. In the future, those farmers will probably be even more relaxed than me, the lord."

Donnie complained, thinking that Ryan was really good to the farmers in the territory.

Zhou Ming smiled without saying anything, and did not explain anything. Anyway, the spring season is coming soon, so you can see what kind of performance the farmers will do.

...

Twenty days later.

Standing on the spire of the castle and looking at the scene of the busy farmland around the castle, Donnie's eyes were almost protruding.

Crazy, absolutely crazy!

The farmers in the fields were like crazy and were working hard all day long.

No supervisor was urging with a whip or forced by anyone, all of these farmers came to the fields they rented and worked in the morning and late.

These farmers seemed to not feel tired at all. During the work, they even sang cheerful folk songs, laughing and laughing everywhere in the fields.

Zhou Ming was also very surprised. Although he predicted in his heart that the enthusiasm of the farmers in the territory should increase a little, he did not expect that they would increase so much at once, and even subverted some of his impressions of the farmers in his mind, such as being lazy, cowardly, cheating, etc.

It was not until several years later, when he reexamined the nine items in the "Agricultural Reform Ordinance" that he suddenly realized that he had seriously underestimated the great power of the last "protecting private property". It can be said that if there was no such vital ninth in the "Agricultural Reform Ordinance" in this set of "Agricultural Reform Ordinance", no matter how well the other eight items were designed, the farmers might not have bought them.

because.

Only when private property is secured, farmers raise chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep in the backyard, without worrying about being taken away by the tax officials at any time.

It is also only when private property is recognized that farmers dare to take their property and trade, exchange and consume publicly in the market without worrying about being confiscated by the tax officials.

Only when private property is protected can farmers dare to save their savings and pass on their descendants without worrying about being levied by the lord.
