Chapter 86 Current Situation of Shahe

Before they could feel the hard-won maternal love at home, Wen Chou and Yan Liang embarked on a journey again.

It was already late August. In just a few days, September was about to begin. The people of Guizhou in Shahe Township have all started to harvest corn and sow wheat. Because there were neither natural disasters nor man-made disasters have occurred during this period. In recent years, there have been a rare season of harvest. Whether it is the original Shahe villagers, the refugee Xin'an Guizhou people, or the two or three thousand prisoners, they all showed excited expressions and smiled happily.

The villagers are getting more and more committed to the tasks they are in their hands! The Shahe Township ditches, which took three or four months and used the power of more than 10,000 people, have reached the final stage and are about to be fully connected! I believe that in the near winter wheat season, it will be useful, which will give Shahe villagers another strong guarantee!

Recently, the food has become a little more abundant, and the food of these refugees has also increased from one portion of porridge to two portions of porridge. Although they cannot eat enough, everything is developing in a positive direction. The refugees are all glad that they chose Shahe Township and Wen Chou. Otherwise, they might have been trampled on the wilderness! Wen Chou's series of actions also made them believe that they will live a better life in the future! The current Shahe Township has long since disappeared from the depression of the dusk, replaced by vitality and hope.

However, Shahe Township is not perfect and impeccable. On the contrary, it has various problems and loopholes.

The first thing to be affected is that the economic foundation of Shahe villagers is extremely low. The indigenous people are better. Not to mention that each family can take out more than 10,000 yuan, but more than 1,000 yuan is more than enough. But those refugees are not able to do it. Their money is either snatched away by the bandits or lost or consumed on the way to wander! When they come to Shahe Township, they are often alone, and perhaps even count them, and the rags and clothes that record their hardships all the way.

And this group of people is exactly the vast majority of Qianshou in Shahe Township! This suddenly reveals many problems! Many ideas in Wen Chou cannot be realized, and some good policies cannot be implemented smoothly. For example, the problem of children's enrollment, most people do not have the extra money to let their children go to school! The food and clothing have not been solved yet, so what are the futures to consider?!

The other is the accommodation problem of villagers. Originally, these refugees only lived in thatched huts, and some built thatched huts, but they were only slightly better than sleeping in the wilderness. Now, August is coming and September is approaching, and the weather is about to turn cold. You can no longer just live in thatched huts. Housing construction needs to be put on the agenda.

There is also the issue of the integration of villagers. Although the original villagers are willing to help these refugees and make them settle down here, they are not a group after all, and there are obvious barriers. If this barrier is not removed as soon as possible, chaos will occur sooner or later!

Then there was the problem of scholars in the village. Although there were not many scholars, they were often lukewarm about Wen Chou due to their appearance, identity, or other reasons. This made Wen Chou very troubled! His current reputation is enough for these poor scholars who are confined to the countryside, but the reality is not the case. I don’t know what went wrong. Wen Chou often asked himself and did not do anything to offend these scholars! On the contrary, he often fought for them to please them.

Wait and wait.

At the moment, Wen Chou hurried to the Guan Temple to deal with a matter he thought was more important - the issue of farm tools. Now that the rural people are about to harvest food, they cannot drag the villagers back on the farm tools. That is, the sins of heaven can still be forgiven, and people cannot survive! Three kowtows and nine bows are all about to be completed, and only the last tremor is left. If you don’t tremble, wouldn’t you commit your own sin? Now, the harvest is about to be about to be withdrawn and the farm tools are not able to be harvested. Then aren’t everything in the past done in vain? Therefore, Wen Chou believes that this is the top priority at the moment.

Of course, because the previous season, the farm tools had been stored in the warehouse of Guansi, Wen Chou only needed to count the number, and then took out the damaged farm tools for repair. Then, the blacksmiths and carpenters in the village created a batch of them so that the farm tools were fully utilized and would not delay the harvest of villagers.

Of course, if there are any agricultural tools, they can be transformed within the current technical allowance, making them more practical and able to increase the labor efficiency of villagers! Wen Chou will not be stingy, this is his advantage as a time traveler! Besides, he is a college student who came from the countryside, who is too advanced, but ordinary agricultural tools have been touched since childhood! He is so familiar that he cannot be familiar with them anymore.

For example, the long straight plow is improved to a more advanced curved plow. When the long straight plow is cultivated, it is not flexible enough to turn around, and it is laborious to lift soil, and the efficiency is not high. However, the curved plow is different. Compared with the long-value shaft plow, it has several major modifications.

First, change the straight shaft and long shaft to curved shaft and short shaft, and secretly install freely rotating plow plates on the shaft. This not only makes the plow frame smaller and lighter, but also makes it easier to turn and turn, operate flexible, save manpower and livestock.

Secondly, plow review and plow construction are added. If the plow review is promoted, the plow arrow can be pushed downward, and the plowshare can be deep when it is penetrated into the soil. If the plow review is raised, the plow arrow can be pushed upward, and the plowshare can be shallow when it is penetrated into the soil. The plow review, plow arrow and plow construction are organically combined to adapt to the different requirements of deep plowing or shallow tillage, and can standardize the depth of the plow land, which is convenient for intensive cultivation. The plow wall can not only crush the soil, but also push the plowing soil to one side, reducing the resistance to the plough forward.

Quyuan plow first appeared in the Tang Dynasty, but its structure is complete, light and labor-saving. After dynasties of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, the structure of the plow did not change much.

Furthermore, the harvesting tools, including the knife that harvests the ears, the sickle that harvests the stems, and the short-cutting, etc., have changed slightly. Although it is not big, it also makes it more ergonomic and more convenient and comfortable to use.

In addition, based on the experiences and experiences of later generations, some simple and practical farm tools, which have not appeared at the moment, are designed and designed and designed by craftsmen, such as rakes, used to level the land.

In each case, Wen Chou did not make too many craftsmen, but only three or four. After all, the actual use effect is still unknown, because Wen Chou could not bring the farm tools from later generations one by one and let these craftsmen follow them. Instead, based on their own impression, they roughly describe the structure and functions of the farm tools one by one, and then combine the current farm tools and the craftsmen's own experience to transform them. If the results are ideal, they will be manufactured on a large scale, and if they are not ideal, they will be improved, this is a long-term attempt process.

Of course, these were all things that Wen Chou took a lot of trouble to make these craftsmen willing to try. However, these modified farm tools cannot play any major role at present, and they are just an auxiliary experiment. What can really come in handy are the thousands of farm tools stored in the official temple and the more than a thousand farm tools ordered by Wen Chou to make. There are only four or five thousand of them in total, which is enough to use.

When Wen Chou and these craftsmen completely determined the plan for new agricultural tools and the specific number of old agricultural tools that should be created, four or five days have passed, and they are one step closer to the busy farming industry.

When Wen Chou revealed the composition ideas and the strange ideas of agricultural tools, he really surprised many people's attention. Wang Chong, the town of Zuo, was one of them. He never thought that his immediate boss was actually an agricultural genius, and he had never heard of any great achievements in agricultural tools before! He also talked about martial arts and weapons, but this agricultural tools were also good, and Wang Chong could only be depressed.

During this period, Wen Chou also went to Taolinshu to comfort and comfort many trained soldiers.

The soldiers who had a real war were more dedicated and serious than before. This was closely linked to their own wealth and life! The entire Taolinshu was operating normally under the care of the army's Sima Jiang Xuan, Shu Zuo Chen Ning and Yiying Qutun commander.

There are only 700 soldiers left now, and there are 300 cavalrymen! They also benefited from the previous encounter with Qiu Liju, making a meal of meat every day and become stronger. This kind of meat-eating life will last until the next year, including the new soldiers to be recruited, and the same treatment will be given.

Compared with those scholars who hold their own identities and don’t give any chance to Wen Chou, these literate men who literate soldiers in the military camp are much better. The salary paid on time every month, the three meals and three meals of full meals like military soldiers, and sometimes there will be teachings from the master Chen Ning, or borrowing some books and bamboo slips from Sima Jiangxuan. All of these things make them very satisfied.

This is undoubtedly a good start for Wen Chou. In Wen Chou's conception, these three or five scholars were his tricks to open up other scholars in the village. As long as they were given enough benefits, they would not be allowed to benefit the villagers according to Wen Chou's conception.
