Chapter 92 Building a Water Mill Together

Qin Yao clicked his tongue twice, "I'm afraid I can't beat 30 taels!"

"After all, not everyone is like me. One person can afford such a big mill. The people in your village do it by themselves. It takes at least ten people to make such a mill. If it is transported to the right place, it will take a lot of time to install it. effort."

If you want to place a heavy stone mill, it is not as simple as ten people moving it around.

The stone is very brittle, if you are not careful, the millstone is cracked, and the previous efforts will be in vain.

Seeing Wang Yu's troubled expression, Qin Yao smiled helplessly, "Of course, Shunzi and I are also close friends. If the family is not too busy during this time, I can also help you carry it."

"But there's really no way. My husband-in-law is now concentrating on his studies. There are so many things to do at home. I really can't leave."

"Third Brother is studying?" Shunzi suspected that he was hallucinating, "Sister-in-law, you just said that Third Brother is going to study now?"

Qin Yao nodded, "It was just decided a few days ago. You know what your third brother is doing. I just want him to continue studying. Maybe he can gain something else."

Shunzi was stunned. Just like his third brother, he can read a lot of shit!
But he has also seen Qin Yao's ability, seeing that she is so determined, she didn't say anything to spoil the fun, and smiled and asked Qin Yao to tell his third brother, don't forget him as a brother when he becomes prosperous in the future.

Qin Yao smiled at him, "If you forget, no one will forget you, Shunzi."

If it brings her such a big business, she can earn at least five taels of silver.

With the huge price gap, if the people of Xiahe Village were not stupid, they would definitely choose to let her and Carpenter Liu do this job.

Seeing that Wang Yu was still hesitant, Qin Yao suggested that he go to Liu Carpenter's house and ask about technical problems.

If someone in Xiahe Village can conquer them, then it will be enough for her and Carpenter Liu to earn some guidance fees.

Of course, these are polite words, in fact, Carpenter Liu is not stupid, the two of them have cooperated several times, and a tacit understanding has been reached.

Anyway, after listening to what Qin Yao just said about the power, bearings, principles, etc., Wang Yu already felt that this water mill was not a simple thing.

But in order to give an explanation to the villagers, Liu Carpenter's family still has to ask.

Qin Yao deliberately said that he was still busy in the field, and asked Shunzi to take him to see Carpenter Liu.

Half an hour later, Shunzi ran to the field alone to find Qin Yao and told her, "Sister-in-law, Brother Wang and I have to go back to the village to discuss it with everyone, but from the looks of it, we may have to trouble you and Carpenter Liu then. .”

Qin Yao smiled and nodded, "Okay, just come to me if you need it."

"By the way, your third brother is also at home. He has mentioned you several times. Why don't you come with me?"

"No, no, I'm in a hurry to go back, next time I'll sit at my sister-in-law's house." Shunzi waved his hand to refuse, he was really in a hurry to go back.

Moreover, he just said that the third brother was studying at home, how dare he disturb him.

Anyway, my sister-in-law can take charge of things, so why go to see my third brother?
Thinking of the meat buns she had eaten with Qin Yao before, Shunzi left with a smile.

Carpenter Liu also has a strange temper, saying that craftsmen have the rules of craftsmen, and he will never pass on the waterwheel technology to the outside world.

Before coming, Wang Yu didn't think of this matter, so he offended people.

No, the two of them rushed back to Xiahe Village, called the villagers together and talked about it. By the way, they excitedly told the villagers about the convenience and efficiency of the water mill. Grab the water mill from Liujia Village.

Of course, it is impossible to rob, just kidding, people can even drive away horse bandits at the beginning of the year, and they are ruthless one by one, no one dares to provoke them.

"Then ask them to help our village. Each household will pay some money, and it will save us energy." A villager in Xiahe Village suggested.

Shunzi, who was standing in the crowd, immediately shouted, "That's right, there are so many of us, and it's only two cents for a family. You haven't seen the water mill with your own eyes. I think it's worth it!"

As he said that, seeing everyone looking at him, Shunzi added: "If my old lady and mother-in-law don't have to suffer that torture for the rest of their lives, I'll pay you even two taels of silver!"

As soon as this remark came out, someone immediately laughed at him: "If you can pay two taels of silver for Shunzi, I will cut off my head for you!"

Immediately, there was a burst of laughter on the field.

Shunzi glared at the man angrily, "Why can't you afford it? If you sell me, it's still worth two or thirty taels. At worst, I'm selling myself, but I also want to give my wife and my wife some comfort!"

When it comes to being a fool, who can compete with Shunzi? He is shameless, and the villagers are too lazy to continue arguing with him.

If he really took off his clothes and went to the ground to say that he wanted to sell himself, what would this big girl and young wife look like.

Village Chief Wang yelled twice, telling everyone to be quiet, and asked if the big guys were willing to build the water mill together.

"Those who are willing to raise their hands, and those who are not, make a sound. See which side has more people, and listen to which side."

The majority raised their hands, and Shunzi stepped on the stone and raised the highest one. Everyone knew that this was someone who wanted to join in the fun, and there was no doubt for a moment whether he had any selfish motives.

The village head saw that most people agreed to build the water mill, so he finalized the matter.

"Village Chief, let's hurry up, the autumn harvest is coming soon, if the big guy can be built before the autumn harvest, it will be easy this year." Brother Yang urged.

They are hunters, and their family has just prepared a few acres of Susukida and planted rice, but those who are not used to these tasks in the field really can't bear this crime.

Thinking about the pain of grinding, I just hope that the water mill will be built soon, so that I won’t have to suffer this pain.

This speaks out the aspirations of the villagers. After spending money, of course, it is worthwhile to get the same feedback.

Therefore, the village head asked his son Wang Yu to go to Liujia Village again to implement this matter quickly.

Since Carpenter Liu was unwilling to teach his skills to anyone else, they had no choice but to ask him to do it.

"By the way, if you want to make a millstone, do you still have to find the woman from the Liu family?" the village head asked his son.

Wang Yu nodded, "Yes, Carpenter Liu also said that the waterwheel was actually a blueprint drawn by Mrs. Qin, and this thing actually belonged to Mrs. Qin's natal uncle."

The village head was not surprised that the waterwheel came out of Qin Yao's hands.

Because he had heard of the reputation of Mrs. Qin, the village head and patriarch of Liujia Village had mentioned it to him several times.

At the beginning of the year, Liujia Village encountered horse bandits. Thanks to this woman with strong martial arts skills, the horse bandits were driven away. She is a very powerful person.

Therefore, the village head told his son Wang Yu, "Then you can go directly to Mrs. Qin to discuss how to build this comprehensive water mill, how long it will take, and how much it will cost."

Wang Yu took the order, and this time he didn't bring Shunzi with him, but went with a respectable uncle in the village, so that the villagers would not think that he was talking nonsense about the big guy's money.
