Chapter seven hundred and eighteen two or three times
Everyone stood between the two teams and watched them dig, and found that although Team B, who used a hoe to dig the ground, did not get much soil after being hoeed. Even if a man who could work, had to straighten up and rest after digging for two or three quarters of an hour, otherwise his waist would not be able to stand it.
Team A is obviously much more useful. The digging of one hoe brings a lot of soil, and it progresses very quickly. When the person holding the nail hoe is tired, he will change the tool with the person holding the nail shovel next to him. After changing the tool, he is full of energy and full of energy. He does not feel tired at all. He will be distanced from both sides in less than a quarter of an hour.
When the people from Team B saw that they were anxious, they were worried that they would be punished if they lost, so they did not dare to rest. They quickly bent down and worked hard. However, their tools were not as good as Team A. Not only did they not catch up, but they were dumped further and further.
Half an hour has arrived, and the officials of the Ministry of Works issued an order. The two teams stopped the tools in their hands under the shouts of the yamen runners. They didn't need to measure them at all. Just by looking at them, you can know that the people of Team A have reclaimed two or three times more wasteland than Team B.
Liu Hongyu and others and the men who were in labor service were shocked.
The new tools developed by Lord Zhao are so good, right?
Team B was afraid of being punished, so he didn't dare to tell the adults, and found the yamen runner who took care of him and said, "You guys, you can see that it's not that the villains are lazy, but that the tools in their hands are not as good as others, but that the villains are no wonder."
The yamen runner said, "Don't worry, the adults know what they think."
Only then did those people feel relieved.
The officials of the Ministry of Works from the capital were not surprised. Zhao Ruxi asked someone to send the tools to the capital, but the emperor had someone to compete with him. They also studied it and had a clear understanding of the new tools.
This time, I came to Nanyang to have someone special competition. It was just to use facts and data to prove the effect of the new tool again, so as not to avoid the emperor's recitation of Lord Zhao, those court officials were foolish and thought that Zhao Zhiwei was benefiting from King Qi.
It is not certain who can benefit from whom.
The technical ottomans in the Ministry of Industry have always admired those who are truly capable, not the powerful.
They measured the areas on both sides, carefully recorded the data, and then said: "Re-draw a starting line? Two sets of interchange tools? Do it again."
When the people from Group B heard this, they quickly took the tools and exchanged them with the people from Group A.
The yamen runners in Group A are determined to compete for their own Lord Zhao? They also know that the new tools are easy to use? They must have lost the old tools in their own group, so they didn't even have any selfishness? They said to the yamen runners in Group B: "You ask the adults to wait and start, so that your people can first familiarize themselves with the use of the new tools before competing."
The yamen runners from Group B quickly raised them.
Zhao Ruxi made these farm tools? Because they were all improved on the existing basis? The nail hoe and the nail shovel both changed the whole piece of iron of the hoe or shovel into nails. After the beating was made, she used it for the servants at home. After the servants looked at it, they knew how to use it. They really didn't think that they needed to teach these corvee workers to use new tools.
Only then did she remember this question after hearing the yamen runners of Group B.
Officials from the Ministry of Works asked Xiao Lingyan and Gong Chenghou, and said, "Come on? Let them be familiar with each other."
The tools are simple. After two team members came out to demonstrate how to use them for Team B, everyone understood that there was no need to practice.
So the second game began quickly. Needless to say, Team B, who used the new tool, was naturally two or three times faster than Team A.
The new tool has a significant effect.
All the officials of the Ministry of Industry are technical talents? They are not very good at flattering, but now they have become flatterers? They praise Zhao Ruxi very much.
Dajin is an agricultural power based on agriculture, focusing on agriculture and suppressing commerce. The emphasis on agriculture is above everything else. As an official of the Ministry of Industry, he has always been committed to transforming agricultural tools. I hope to make new agricultural tools to increase agricultural productivity. But due to limited knowledge and ability, they really cannot come up with real and practical improvement measures.
Some time ago, King Qi also wanted to improve the farm tools? He asked for leave from the emperor and ran out for a walk around, but he didn't think of a way to improve the farm tools.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Ruxi went to Renzhou Tongzhi in Nanyang for half a year and took out two tools to greatly improve agricultural productivity. Why didn’t this convince the officials of the Ministry of Works be convinced?
As for the idea that King Qi secretly used the farm tools he had come up with to make a name for Zhao Ruxi, not only the officials of the Ministry of Works, but even the court officials would not think so.
Zhao Ruxi created a new painting method, and also tinkered with a safe that no one could open, and made dozens or hundreds of textile machines with automatic weaving of shuttles. Her flexibility and intelligence were recognized by the entire Jin Dynasty.
Now she has been in Nanyang as an official in charge of agriculture for half a year and has developed new agricultural tools. Isn’t this what it should be? It’s completely natural, and everyone doesn’t find it strange at all.
However, His Highness, King Qi, was not diligent in all his limbs and grains. Although he had been in the Ministry of Works for two or three years, he did not make any useful things. Wood was so beautiful that it would be destroyed by the wind of the forest. Xiao Lingyan did not need to show off or gain reputation, and attracted the attention and targeting of other princes. So he had to make trouble for anything he wanted to make trouble in private, or borrowed from Zhao Ruxi's hands, so he did not make any reputation in this regard.
Seeing that Liu Hongyu, Cai Yaozong and others were also planning to join the ranks of flattery, Zhao Ruxi quickly interrupted the officials of the Ministry of Works and said: "Master Shi, do you think there is any improvement in this tool? If not, it can be promoted on a large scale."
"No, it can be promoted nationwide."
Lord Shi is an old man in his fifties who has been studying farm tools all his life and wants to improve them. This time, he saw that the farm tools improved by Zhao Ruxi did not have much complex design. He only changed the focus point, but more than doubled the efficiency. He was shocked. This time he came to Nanyang, he volunteered to follow him, just to express his admiration to Zhao Ruxi.
"It is the season for land reclamation. With the farm tools improved by Lord Zhao, the wasteland we have reclaimed this year is at least twice as much as in previous years. Lord Zhao's move is in the present and the future." He said.
Gong Cheng knew that the junior sister didn't like to listen to these things. He said, "Today, the emperor sent me to wait. In addition to seeing the actual effect of the new farm tools, he also wanted to discuss with Lord Zhao how to promote the new farm tools. It's getting late, so why don't we go back to the yamen and sit and talk slowly?"
"Yes, Your Highness King Qi and you all came from afar. Let's go back to the yamen to rest." Liu Hongyu said quickly.
So the group took the car and rode the horse and returned to the state yamen together.
