"Wow! The fish really went in by themselves!" Li He, who was still young, didn't have that much thought. He turned his head and stared at the river. He saw that the little fish had indeed crawled in one or two, but could not swim back and forth. He was so playful that he turned around and looked back and forth and looked back and forth and asked for a handful of branches: "Interesting! Interesting! I'll try it too - why can't this fish swim when it comes in?"

"I will tell you when you can catch ten fish in your trap." Wei Renshi smiled, digging a few more earthworms from the wet soil next to him and throwing them into the trap. Seeing the number of fish inside, he didn't stop moving his index finger.

"The fish here are not delicious, they are so fishy." Li He said when he saw Wei Renshi happily went to fish.

Wei Renshi laughed: "You guys won't do that!"

As soon as I finished speaking, I remembered that it was the Tang Dynasty now. Not everyone has oil at home. I guess I wouldn’t fry the fish oil first when making fish soup, right?

Okay, I don’t have a drop of oil at home, but fortunately there is still a star of coarse salt, so I won’t drink white soup anymore.

So working hard to improve the quality of life is the first priority!

The two of them caught fish by the river for a while. Wei Ren weaved a small basket with willow branches, which surprised Li He and asked for one to hold his own fish.

After taking the fish and wild vegetables in a small basket, Wei Renshi was in high spirits and was about to show his skills in the stove. When he walked to the door, Xi'er stopped him and refused to let him in, he had to give up.

The grandmother of the family saw this scene and called Wei Renshi to the house. He said, "You are the descendants of the gentry. Your Taizu, your grandfather, and your father are all scholars. You will only focus on studying in the future and always think about the purpose of repaying the consequences, so that you will not let down your ancestors. Do not be distracted, and you don't have to do this in the future. If you think that corn is not full, just say it, you will never teach you how to make trouble for your mother."

In Wei Renshi's opinion, the wife in the family is a bit rigid. Her idea of ​​living in the present must not make sense to her. Therefore, she wanted to nod and agree casually, just fool her.

But when he reached his mouth, he spoke too much and smiled: "Which gentry child can't even eat enough, and he still wants my mother to borrow food? I am the eldest son, but I can't help but ask my mother to beg for food for myself!"

It was a joke, but I never thought that the wife looked dim and sighed, saying, "Studying and getting fame and fortune in the court, and entering the court to benefit the people. This is the teaching of the Wei family, and we must not forget it. If your grandfather and your father had not died early, our family would have been a local family, and we would not have gone to such an extent. If this were the case, my family still had a few acres of thin land. Unfortunately, the family is now all women and children, and their labor is not enough, resulting in the growing of weeds in the fields and the harvest of millet and wheat. It is a crime for my mother to keep the family!"

Wei Renshi thought to himself that a woman, a child who is underage, a thin and weak maid who is young. If she was born as a peasant woman, she could also do the crops in the fields. However, she was a half-way person and was really a difficult person. However, since she has become Wei Renshi, this responsibility is his own.

Wei Renshi thinks this should not be too difficult. After all, he has lived more than 1,200 more than them.

But the lady said again: "After that being said, the land must not be planted. In the past few days, we need to take advantage of the rain and wet soil to plow the land first."

Wei Renshi has not had land plowing. If there were as convenient farm tools as in later generations, it would not be difficult to plow a few acres of land.

But it's hard to say now.

Therefore, Wei Renshi walked out of the house again and followed the fields.

There were already hardworking farmers who were trying to cultivate the land. When Wei Renshi saw the farm tools in their hands, he felt something was wrong. The farm tools alone could not allow the women and children at home to easily plow out a few acres of land.

Walking past the ridge of the field, Wei Renshi looked at the farmer who was holding the plow hard and struggling to move forward in the field.

"Uncle Zhao, is this plow sinking?" Wei Renshi stood by the field and asked the farmers in the field: "Tell me to give it a try!"

"I'm afraid it's impossible!" Old Man Zhao in the field smiled, wiped his sweat, and said, "Langjun Wei is a scholar, and his hands are holding pens and writing. He will definitely be noble in the future. How can he make the activities in the mud?"

Wei Renshi smiled and said, "The saints have to marry farmers and sericultures every spring. They go to the ground to shovel two handfuls of soil. What am I going to do?" While laughing, he took off his shoes and pulled up his clothes, jumped down, and grabbed the rope from Old Man Zhao.

Pull the rope to your shoulders and pull it hard, and it doesn't move at all.

This body is still small, too thin, and has no strength at all.

Old Man Zhao grinned, took the rope from Wei Renshi's hand, dragged the plow himself, and signaled to the son-in-law who was pushing the plow behind, and the two continued to work.

Wei Ren was standing next to him, looking at the plow carefully.

This plow is also a curved shaft, but the plow shaft is too long, it is a long curved shaft plow. Moreover, there are fewer things on it than the curved shaft plows that Wei Ren had used in later generations.

For example, if there is no plow wall, you cannot directly push the soil in front while arable land. If the plow shovel is too straight, it is not easy to get stuck in the soil and shovel up and smash it.

In addition, there seems to be no structure that can adjust the depth of the plowshare into the soil, and it is impossible to adjust the depth of the cultivated land.

In later generations, in remote mountainous areas, there were no large areas of fields, and they were all small pieces of mountain fields. Modern machinery could not be reached, and in some places, even tractors could not get through. The way of ox plowing and old-fashioned farm tools still exist in large quantities.

As a special post teacher who grew up in the countryside and who stayed in the countryside to engage in rural education after growing up, Wei Renshi, later generations, was no stranger to these old-fashioned farm tools.

Wei Renshi was sure that if the old farm tools he had seen in later generations were built, the efficiency of farming land would be improved more than a little.

Perhaps, even three women and children in the family can complete the farming of the fields.

After taking a few more deep glances, Wei Renshi had already remembered the appearance of the plough under Old Man Zhao's hands in his heart. Then he went up the ridge of the field and hurried home.

Even though there were only a few old houses left in the house, Wei Renshi still made a special study room for Wei Renshi. As soon as he got home, Wei Renshi plunged in, closed the door tightly, and picked up the pen to draw on the paper.

Fortunately, I inherited my memory from the original owner of my body. In addition, due to professional reasons in my later generations, I often practiced calligraphy for a few times, so I quickly adapted to using a brush to draw.

After a whole afternoon, no matter how hard he opened his eyes, he could not see clearly the content on the paper, and after wasting a thick stack of precious paper, Wei Renshi finally got his wish and drew a pattern that satisfies himself - the principle and structure of the curved plow are actually really simple. Even so, Wei Renshi still spent a lot of effort to finally draw the correct pattern that can be understood by the craftsmen.

After lighting the lamp, Wei Renshi had another thought.

After using a few more pieces of paper, he drew out several key structures on the curved plow separately.

In this way, a complete pattern becomes a combination of several parts.

After setting the proportions yourself, write down the specifications of length, depth, and give them to different craftsmen to create different parts. After you come back, you can assemble them together by yourself. At least for a short period of time, you can maintain the secret of the curved plow - although the structure of the curved plow is simple, once it appears, it will inevitably be imitated. But at least before others understand the structure, you can have some time to operate it, earn some capital, and then do other things.

He carefully collected the wasted paper and hid it for the next few days to wipe it off. After that, Wei Renshi left the study.

This kind of thing is probably not known to my grandmother, otherwise she should have said that she was distracted and did not concentrate on studying.

I can only try to get some money first and go to craftsmen to create it privately.
Chapter completed!
