Chapter 607

Outside the barracks, the slogan of soldiers' training was flying over Qingzhou.

Xiao Ming said to Niu Zhen: "what Niu Dudu said is very true. In the battle of Wei, the southern expedition army and Dengzhou army captured the city like searching for something. Now the king of Wei has been captured, and Youzhou, Qingzhou and Jinling City are linked together. Now we just need to continue to strengthen our armaments and repair our internal affairs, then we can find opportunities to break the situation and hold the northern rivers and mountains in our hands."

At the beginning of the war, it may be the training and bravery of the two armies, but with the war going on, it is the money, food and equipment.

Now Xiao Ming has the advantage of the army, and he is not short of money and food. After all, he has an extra granary when he takes Wei land.

"The generals are responsible for fighting, and the officials are responsible for assisting his highness in governing the feudalism. With the benefit of the feudalism, his highness can easily obtain the northern land."

Fiji is also very confident now. The king of Wei is very powerful among many vassal kings. Now Xiao Ming has won so easily that he has to treat firearms differently.

Xiao Ming smiles when he hears the words, but Fiji says that he only needs to be responsible for the upgrading of science and technology.

Now that Wei Di is won, he can also confidently devote himself to climbing the science and technology tree. In recent years, Qingzhou has reserved a number of technical talents, which has laid the foundation for the outbreak of science and technology. Now is the time for him to participate. After all, he has mastered the science and technology knowledge, and the students' understanding ability is not what it used to be. He only needs to mention it a little.

After a while, Xiao Ming and Fiji return to Qingzhou City.

It was farming season, and he had something to deliver to the slave manor in Qingzhou, and he was ready to let the government promote it.

In the city, Xiao Ming and Fiji did not go to the yamen, but went to kuiwu's manor. In the manor, he saw Pang Yukun with an excited face.

Originally, Pang Yukun wanted to go to Qingzhou camp with them, but when Lin Wentao sent something over, he couldn't walk any more. He had to take such a machine to field test.

"Your Highness, this 12 row drill is amazing. In one morning, three people sowed seeds on 20 mu of land."

Seeing Xiao Ming and Fiji coming, Pang Yukun trots over from the field.

Xiao Ming looks not far away. At this time, three slaves are sowing seeds in the field. One of them is holding three cows, while the two slaves behind are holding a long strip shaped thing. This is the twelve row drill that Lin Wentao sent.

In modern Europe, the first seeder was made in Greece in 1636. In 1830, the Russians added a sowing device to the animal power multi share plow to make the plow seeder. After 1860, Britain, the United States and other countries began to mass produce the animal power grain drill.

The structure of this kind of planter is not very complicated, but even so, it needs a certain industrial foundation to be able to mass produce. Now Lin Wenyao can produce it because Qingzhou can produce the parts and the drawings provided by Xiao Ming.

Otherwise, with their own estimation, they would not have the idea of producing drill.

In fact, the principle of the drill is very simple, that is, the seed metering wheel is driven by the walking wheel to rotate, the seeds are discharged into the seed conveying pipe from the upper seed box, and fall into the opened groove through the ditcher, and then the seeds are covered and compacted by the soil covering and pressing device.

To put it simply, there is a long strip shaped plow tool below, which is equipped with a round shaped seed box. At the same time, the walking wheel has a structure similar to a connecting rod. Every rotation will open the bottom of the seed box, so that the seeds will fall into the ploughed ditch. On the last side of the drill is an arc-shaped iron plate, and the seeds will be scattered After that, the structure flattens the soil.

"What! Three people planted 20 acres of land in one morning! " Fijian's jaw almost fell off.

"It's true. If you don't believe it, count it yourself." Pang Yukun pointed to the ridge of the field. Now, in order to distinguish the size of each mu of land, a branch will be inserted into each mu of land.

After counting, it's really 20 mu.

Fiji was really shocked. He said: "Your Highness, if this drill is popularized, people will be able to plant more land. Now there are fewer people in Youzhou and more land. Ryukyu is also waiting for development. It's just too timely."

Having said that, Fiji ran to the slaves who were planting seeds regardless of their image.

Xiao Ming and Pang Yukun look at each other, but both of them have no choice but to smile. People living in Qingzhou are used to having new things appear every once in a while.

But it's still a bit of a shock to the people from outside.

Seeing that Fijian was walking in the fields with long clothes, they also followed him.

When they got to the grain drill, the three stopped. At this time, a bad smell suddenly came to the shop. Xiao Ming suddenly realized, "this Lin Wentao, he added the dung trough to it."

"It's true. I was a little surprised when I first came here. This grain drill can plow, sow and fertilize together. According to the people sent by Lin Wentao, everything on this drill can be disassembled." Said Pang.

Fijian wandered around the grain drill, looked at it once, and he probably had a number in his mind. He said, "isn't this a truck?""Yes, it's a new car, but it's an improved one." Xiao Ming laughs.

Fijian nodded. "In the past, people used to use wooden gondolas. This kind of gondola sows seeds very slowly. This thing is made of steel, and the speed is much faster. Moreover, this thing is like twelve gondolas stuck together. No wonder it can sow 20 mu of land in one morning."

"That's natural. How can a truck compare with this kind of large-scale drill? Your highness, let Lin Wentao mass produce it now, and then let each production team buy one." Pang Yukun looked excited.

Xiao Ming shook his head. "Well, we should not only equip the production team, but also use it in slave manors and merchants' big farms, so that the money sold to merchants can be used to subsidize the production team."

Fiji and Pang Yukun look at each other and smile. This idea is wonderful, so that the people can use the drill cheaply.

Xiao Ming is also in a good mood today. He said, "you will be happy in a few days. This grain drill is just the beginning. We will work with Lin Wentao to make the animal harvester before harvesting."

"Harvester." They were surprised again.

Xiao Ming nodded. In 1799, Mala's disc cutter harvester first appeared in Britain. Like the drill, there is no difficulty in manufacturing these machines. What he needs is the structure of the machine. After all, his lathe, steam engine and steel-making technology have reached this level.
