Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 69: Question
Qiqu Pavilion Workshop.
"Xiao Xuan, old man, I speak straightforwardly. Don’t be surprised. Although your scooter is creative and novel, but in the end this thing is just a child’s joke, and it is useless for the people’s livelihood. You roller Bearings are extremely useful. Since you have the talent in this area, you should study more things that are beneficial to the people."
After seeing a few people sitting down, Uncle Fu began to preach to Li Zexuan with earnestness. Li Zexuan was very speechless, this old man's temperament was really straightforward, and if he were replaced by someone with a small belly, he would definitely hate him for it.
But fortunately, Li Zexuan is not such a person, he still agrees with Fu Bo's words.
"Fubber taught that this scooter is just a plaything that I wanted to coax her sister at the beginning. Of course, I will not only do this in the future."
Fu Bo nodded in relief and said: "Well, a child can teach."
Li Zexuan remembered another purpose of coming to the workshop, and said: “I went to my village yesterday and found that this year’s fields were particularly difficult to cultivate due to the lack of rain. It is estimated that some farmers will miss spring ploughing. Brother Shaoning and Can Fu Bo know this?"
Yan Shaoning's expression was serious, and he said solemnly:
"This situation does not only happen in your Zhuangzi, but also in various counties around Chang'an. According to my father, this incident has alarmed the court, and your Majesty has already learned about it and is making People transferred a batch of cattle from several northern states and counties to Chang'an, and then distributed them to farmers, trying not to let farmers miss spring plowing."
Fubo also nodded and said: "The old man has also heard about this, but what is your purpose, Xiaoxuan? We can't help with this kind of thing, we can only rely on the court."
Li Zexuan stood up and disagreed: "Fu Bo’s words are not correct. As the saying goes, if you want to do good things, you must first sharpen your tools. As a craftsman, you must also have the craftsmanship spirit. Research some things that are beneficial to people's livelihood, then why can't we make more useful farming tools for the people?"
Fu Bo raised his eyebrows. He has been in this field for so many years, but today he is preached by this little doll. He is a little displeased with arrogance and frowns:
"You kid said it was light and handy. The straight-wheel plow I used in the Tang Dynasty originated in the Han Dynasty. After several improvements, it is already the most advanced tillage tool. How can there be a better tool than this. "
" As Fubo said, the kid can't agree, how can craftsmen not seek innovation, how can they do the things that predecessors planted trees and future generations can enjoy the shade, how can they know that they can't make better farming tools without trying? ?"
Fu Bo was dissatisfied and said: "So, can you make a better tillage tool?"
Li Zexuan can also see that this old man is a stubborn temper, not to say how bad his heart is, but that he does not allow others to question him in his best field. This kind of person Li Zexuan has seen a lot in his previous life. Big cows in all fields have such stinking problems.
Li Zexuan is not talking nonsense at the moment, he directly took out the already drawn plot of the plough from his sleeve, spread it out on the table, and said to both of them:
"This is a kind of more labor-saving plough that I saw in Hanjiazhuang yesterday when I saw a farmer using a straight shaft to plow the land. I was thinking of finding a workshop to produce a batch as soon as possible. Brother Shaoning, Bo Fu, you guys Come and have a look."
Yan Shaoning and Fu Bo can't wait to get together to look at the drawing. For the first time seeing this kind of drawing technique, Uncle Fu frowned and wanted to ask Li Zexuan, but he was a little embarrassed to ask. He had just quarreled with Li Zexuan, and he really couldn't hold back his face.
Yan Shaoning is very familiar with this painting method. He carefully read the content of the drawing, then closed his eyes and meditated, imagining the structure of the plough in his mind, but after a few breaths, he opened it. eye.
"Xiaoxuan, your type of plough should have evolved from a straight shaft plow, right? I saw that you made changes to the length and shape of the shaft, and installed a roulette on the shaft. This I have never seen such a structure, and I can’t say whether your plough or the straight-wheel plow we use is more labor-saving."
Fubo saw Yan Shaoning’s headlines at this time. Obviously he could understand this kind of drawings. Fubo couldn’t help but feel very depressed. He has been a craftsman for a lifetime. He also has his own pride in this field. , Seems to be inferior to these two little dolls.
In fact, after Yan Shaoning finished speaking, he noticed that Fu Bo was still staring at the drawing, and after a little thought, he understood what was going on. He patted his head and said embarrassedly:
"Uh, Fu Bo, I forgot to tell you that this drawing method was created by Xiaoxuan. These three pictures represent the shape of the object seen from three directions..."
Yan Shaoning began to popularize the knowledge of the three views to Fober again. Forber has been studying this field for so many years, and he will understand it with a little dialling. Even though he did not agree with Li Zexuan's point of view before, he also agreed with Li Zexuan's drawing method.
He nodded, then looked at the picture again.
Li Zexuan also explained to the side at this time: "Fu Bo, brother Shaoning, I call this plough a Quyuan plough. It consists of eleven parts, namely the ploughshare, plough wall, plough bottom, and pressure plough. Plow, plow, plow arrow, plow shaft, plow review, plow construction, plow tip, plow plow."
Li Zexuan explained to them one by one while pointing to the drawing. Both of them listened to him seriously. Even if they could understand the drawing, they would not be able to keep up with their understanding Li Zexuan's.
Li Zexuan continued: "I changed the long straight shaft to a short curved shaft, and installed a freely rotating plough disk on the shaft. This not only makes the plough frame smaller and lighter, but also facilitates turning and turning. Flexible operation, saving manpower and animal power."
"In addition, I also added the plow review and the plow arrow. If you use the push plow review, you can make the plow arrow down and the plowshare will penetrate deeper into the soil. If you lift the plow review and make the plow arrow go up, the plowshare will enter the soil slightly. In shallow, the combination of plow review, plow arrow and plow arrow can meet the different requirements of deep ploughing and signing ploughing."
"The plough wall can not only crush the soil, but also push the plowed soil to one side, reducing the resistance of the plough forward. Combining these improvements, the curved plow can save at least 50% more effort than the straight one."
Li Zexuan talked freely to the drawing, and the two of them nodded frequently~IndoMTL.com~Finally, Fu Bo couldn't help saying:
"Your design is quite new, and it sounds reasonable to hear you say that, but we are just talking on paper now, and no one knows if it is more labor-saving and better to use."
Li Zexuan wanted to tell him that these are theoretically based, draw a force analysis diagram, and calculate according to the formula, you can know which is more labor-saving, but if you tell them this, you have to popularize the project with them. Knowledge of mechanics, this thing cannot be explained clearly in a few words.
Li Zexuan can only say: "Fu Bo, what you said is not unreasonable, but practice is the only criterion for testing the truth. Instead of arguing here, it is better to create a batch to test it. You will not know the kind of farming. Is plowing more labor-saving?"
Fu Bo muttered: "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Xiaoxuan, what you said is very reasonable, so let's try it out first."
Li Zexuan handed over and smiled: "Then Lao Fubo will first build twenty curved ploughs, and my Zhuangzi is in a hurry to use them. I will take this batch of curved ploughs to Zhuangzi the day after tomorrow for an experiment." /
Fu Bo frowned and said: "Xiao Xuan, how much do you want to build for the first time?"
Li Zexuan smiled confidently: "Fu Bo, I am very confident in Quyuanli. The farmers of Hanjiazhuang are waiting for spring ploughing. I don’t have time to try them one by one. I believe Quyuanli can solve the immediate urgency."
Fubo hesitated for a moment, nodded and agreed: "Okay, since Xiaoxuan said that, then the workshop will work overtime in these two days to rush out 20 quyuan ploughs. The day after tomorrow, I will go to Hanjiazhuang with you. How effective is it."
"I want to go too."
Yan Shaoning added quickly. If this Qu Yuan Plow is really as magical as Li Zexuan said, then this will definitely be a big event that will shake the ruling party and the opposition, and he must see it in person.
