Rose town.

Blacksmith Morse’s house.

“Ryan Butler, can you really plow the land with a heavy plow designed like this?” Morse, a strong blacksmith, stared at the pattern of the farming tools on the blueprint and wondered the authenticity.

“You don’t need to ask so much, you just need to change the heavy plow to this way according to the requirements. If it doesn’t work, I will let people take it to the ground to try it.”

“… Well, I will make one for you in three days.”

Morse nodded, took out an iron ingot, and knocked it on the hot blacksmith furnace.

Zhou Ming went to several carpenters’ houses in the town again, and guided him to make some of the farm tools he designed.

Three days later, the new heavy plow of blacksmith Morse was also completed. The biggest change of this heavy plow is the addition of two concave plow walls on the original conical plow head. The shape is very strange.

In addition, Zhou Ming also moved the two hard birch ox yokes that the carpenters made in the past few days, and moved them to a piece of farmland together, letting people bring two strong cows, and put the yoke on the cow’s neck. , The two thick hemp ropes extending from the tail of the yoke were tied to the traction handle of his newly designed heavy plow head.

“Ryan, this heavy plow requires at least four strong cows to pull it. How can two cows pull it?”

Donny, who came to watch the new farming tool tillage test, stood on the ground. I really don’t believe that this new plow designed by Zhou Ming can turn this farmland with a very viscous soil soon after it thawed.

“let’s start.”

Zhou Ming did not answer, and asked the farmer who controlled the new heavy plow to wave the whip, drive the strong cow, and move forward.

“This … how is this possible?”

Downey’s eyes suddenly widened and his face was shocked. The heavy plow actually moved. Just driven by the two strong cows, he pulled the new heavy plow and quickly ploughed the soil in the farmland. The two strong cows Walking vigorously, as if very relaxed, the ditch plowed under the plow head is deep and good.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Ming nodded and said, “It’s almost what I expected. After adding the plow wall to the heavy plow, it saved at least 50% of the pulling force for the cattle, and it was easier to put force on the neck of the cattle. After the cow yoke, it saves 30% -40% of the physical strength of the cattle. The two improvements add up to the heavy plow that originally required six cows. Now only two cows are needed … “

After listening to this, Downey did not stop the shock in his heart, but he heard Zhou Ming said: “Now it is approaching spring sowing, there is no extra time to develop the light plow. If the light plow is also developed, I am afraid it only needs A strong cow can be pulled, and there is a horse-drawn plough. Although the horse’s strength is not as big as a cow, the two horse-drawn plows can double the speed of plowing. “

Downey quickly interrupted him and said, “Ryan, have you thought about it? The terrible things you invented are to reclaim all the land of the Grand Collar. Pull plow? I don’t think it will be used. “

Downey felt that his heart could not bear it anymore. Ryan only made improvements and inventions on the heavy plow and the yoke, and tripled the use efficiency of the Glen Collar cattle, but he said that there was still more. Room for improvement?

However, these stimuli are not enough. Ryan asked the farmer on the side to push a weird farming tool and explain to him:

“Improvements only in the efficiency of land tillage are not enough. Downey, look at this thing. This is the Aquilegia I invented. It can replace the manual sowing method used by farmers when they sow. Just adjust it. The seed outlet at the bottom, pushing this car can automatically complete the sowing work. Not only that, there are two movable wood chips on both sides of the car, which can complete the soil covering work after sowing … relying on this A planting car, a farmer, can complete the sowing of 100 acres a day. “

“This this……”

Looking at the car in front, Downey’s body shuddered, pointing at Zhou Ming and saying, “Lane, you want to let all the farmers in the Grand Collar lazy to die, you …”

He no longer knew what to say.

Zhou Ming shook his head unsatisfiedly: “It’s not enough. When the autumn harvest arrives, I have to invent the horse-drawn harvester. This harvester is pulled by horses and can complete hundreds in a day. There are still a lot of Glan collar horses for harvesting acres. Probably as long as ten harvesters are prepared, all the wheat fields of Glan collar need basically no manpower to harvest. “

There are also threshing machines to replace manpower, windmills driven by wind … Zhou Ming intends to take the one-stop animal mechanization of agricultural mechanization by replacing wind and manpower from seeding to harvesting.

Coupled with the “strongest manure” that he has formulated and improved for more than ten years, a “pesticide” formulated with a pyrethrin contained in chrysanthemum-an unprecedented agricultural revolution, will happen in this small piece On the territory.

Now Zhou Ming wants to do a good job on the small stage of Grand Collar!

“You, you, no wonder you were so confident before, what agricultural reforms you want to implement, it has been prepared for a long time, and now the farmers of the Grand Collar can lie down at home and wait for the land after only a few days of work The harvest here is great. Those farmers in the future may be easier than my lord. “

Downey complained that Ryan was a bit ridiculous to the farmers in the realm.

Zhou Ming smiled and didn’t say anything. He didn’t explain anything. Anyway, the season of spring sowing is coming. The farmers will be able to see what they will do.

Uh …

Twenty days later.

Standing at the spire of the castle, looking at the scene of the sky in the farmland around the castle, Downey’s eyes almost protruded.

Is crazy, it’s crazy!

Farmers in the field, UU reading www.uukanshu.com are like crazy demon, all day long, working hard in the field.

No supervisors urged with a whip, and no one persecuted them. These farmers all came to their rented fields spontaneously and worked greedily in the early hours.

These farmers did not seem to feel tired at all. In the process of working, they even sang cheerful folk songs, fields, and laughter everywhere.

Zhou Ming was also very surprised. Although he estimated in his heart that the farmer ’s enthusiasm for labor in the territory should be improved, he did not expect to increase so much at once, and even subverted some of the impressions of the farmer in his mind. Cowardice, sneaking and sneaking, etc.

It was not until a few years later, when he re-examined the nine contents of his “Agricultural Reform Ordinance”, he suddenly discovered that he had seriously underestimated the great power of “protecting private property” in the last order of the order. It can be said that If this set of “Agricultural Reform Orders” does not have this vital Article 9, and the remaining eight are arbitrarily designed, farmers will not necessarily buy it.

Because.

Only when private property is secured, farmers are raising chickens, ducks, cows and sheep in the backyard without worrying that the tax officer will take one or two at any time.

Only when private property is recognized, the farmers dare to take their property, openly trade, exchange and consume at the market, without having to worry about being suddenly confiscated by tax officials.

It is only when private property is protected that farmers dare to save their savings and pass on to future generations without worrying about the huge estate tax imposed by the lord.

It was through this agricultural reform decree that the amazing power suddenly released from the farmers. Soon, the small territory of the Grand Domain changed dramatically.
