warring states careerist

Chapter 29
The child who made Qin Huali and Meng Sheng amazed had six fingers on his hand, which was naturally the six fingers that surpassed the child taught by Gongsun Ze.

He is suitable for teaching, so his understanding of Mohist is the understanding after this modification and tampering.

But these corrections and tampering did not make a character like Qin Huali feel a little unhappy.On the contrary, it is really rare to integrate some concepts that can only be understood by self-enlightenment.

Just a few simple exchanges have already made Qin Huali full of curiosity about Shi, but he doesn't know that Shi is not a real Mohist at all, but a self-proclaimed one.

There are extraordinary disciples, and there must be extraordinary teachers.

Qin Huali is convinced that this fellow student who has not met must be an unusual person.

Looking at the horseshoe pits and tripping ropes near the wheat field, he asked again: "Boy, these horseshoe pits are not used to guard against wild animals."

Liuzhi was already convinced of the identity of the other party's ink master, so he no longer concealed it, and gave a sneaky smile.

"Old man, Brother Shi said that princes and nobles like to hunt with horses in winter, and this method of staying wheat offended some people, so they asked us to dig out the horseshoe pit."

"The aristocrats of the public office, the lackeys, must take a car. Winter is also the season for hunting. These horseshoe pits, even if they break their horseshoes, they dare not come again. If you ask, they say that they are to prevent elk, dogs and mice from harming the wheat seedlings. They It’s hard to say anything.”

"I also bribed some people who perform martial arts in winter, and I don't want to be a school here."

Qin Huali shook his head and laughed, knowing that it is not easy for the peasants to survive at this time, so it is understandable to do so.

Looking at those wheat seedlings again, I was even more surprised.

It is a miracle that the wheat is sown in winter and the wheat is green in the first month, but what is rare is that such wheat is not sown.

At this time, the Central Plains and other places have discovered that drill sowing is better than sowing seeds all over the sky, as the saying goes, "There is no action when you plant, the stems grow but not grow, and the seedlings steal from each other."

But you know, you know, it's still too early to popularize.

At this time, the cultivation of the public land was not good, and the serfs in the well fields were directly held accountable; the serfs' share of the land was not well cultivated, and Tian Zheng was to be held accountable.

Besides, if you want to change one thing, the most difficult thing is to change people's thinking. Even if you want to improve farming technology, you dare not say that you have summed it up by yourself.

For example, all the peasants in the hundred middle schools falsely claimed that it was Shennong's inheritance, and they dare not say that they wrote it themselves.On the one hand, they are worried about being troubled by others, and on the other hand, they pretend to be Shennong's posthumous work, which is also easy to promote. Shunong is more willing to believe in ancient things or ghosts and gods.

Tian Zheng didn't dare to change it, he didn't want to change it, and he wasn't allowed to change it.

After the change, how should the ability passed down by blood be eaten?Therefore, even the members of the peasant family must pretend to be Shennong's work, otherwise Nongzheng will be dissatisfied and go to obstruct it.

This is not the most difficult part. The most difficult part is that ox plowing and plowshares are not popular at this time, and things like columbine carts are still far away. Can't be busy at all.

Qin Huali felt that he had great talent, and believed in his heart that the so-called Sumai must have his reasons, and it is impossible to fail.

It was said before that plants are planted in spring and harvested in autumn. No one thought that they could be planted in autumn and harvested in spring and summer.Now it seems that the wheat color is green, and he was not directly frozen to death as everyone thought.Having survived the winter, you can harvest in spring and summer.

What he was curious about now was how these people planted such a large piece of land in vertical rows.If it is public land, it is still possible for thousands of serfs to work together, but these are obviously private land.

After asking his doubts, Liuzhi stopped and squatted on the ground.

Qin Huali knew that the child was going to explain something to him. He had been in front of Mozi for a long time, and sometimes when Mozi was talking, he would often squat on the ground and outline something with a wooden stick.

For example, he still remembers how Zimozi explained to him what a circle is, drawing a circle on the ground with two sticks sandwiched between them, and telling him: "A circle has the same length as the middle."

In other words, a circle is a set of all points whose radius is the same as the center of the circle.It is difficult for Qin Huali to understand just talking without painting; while talking while painting, Qin Huali wakes up instantly.

He still remembers being mesmerized by looking at the circle on the ground at that time, but he never imagined that in the next few decades, he would squat down to watch what a child was drawing.

The disciples in the back didn't think it different, and some of the families with a lot of land also squatted down and put their six fingers in the middle.

Liuzhi is not very old, but after the last shootout and the last time he stumbled to explain what a paradise is in front of everyone in the village, being surrounded by dozens of people is no longer a big deal.

He knelt down and grabbed a handful of soil. The plain created by the river here is extremely fine. Even if he grasped a handful, it would flow out continuously even if he held it in a tube shape.

"Brother Shi said that everything has a downward heart, which is the will of heaven. So the seeds are the same. But if the bottom is full and the pipe is blocked, then the seeds will not fall."

As he spoke, he dug out some sand with his left hand and connected it with the tube held in his palm.Sure enough, the sand in the hand that had not completely flowed down stopped falling.

"In this case, we carry the wheat seeds on our backs and hold them in our hands with a small groove, so that the flowing wheat will naturally block the wheat seeds from flowing downward. We use a small stone hammer and lightly tap the wheat seeds. It will be shaken down from the gap left in the front and back, and over time, the groove made of wood will reveal a gap again, and the wheat seeds carried on the back will fall to fill the groove."

"Every time a stone hammer hits this small grooved piece of wood, a few seeds will fall from both sides. If it falls a lot, it will fall naturally from the top, but it won't all flow out like water."

"Two cows pulled the simple plowshare made by brother Shi in front, and we followed behind with stone hammers to knock the grooves to drop wheat, just to keep up with the speed of the cows. Doing this can cultivate tens of acres of land a day, unlike sowing Four people can't catch up with the one who hits a block of wood with a stone hammer."

Qin Huali was even more amazed, not just amazed at this simple but effective whimsy, but also amazed that the children in this village could speak so clearly without the slightest timidity.

According to what the child said, he thought about it silently, tried it with two hands, and finally understood.

If it is a wooden tube, the bottom is full of seeds, but the seeds on the top cannot fall?
Tap lightly to shake out the most pointed seeds. After a long time, the wooden tube above will definitely leak out, and the wheat on the back will fall down automatically until the wooden tube is blocked again.

So back and forth, constantly filling.

There is no need to reach out to grab the wheat, nor to bend over to touch the seeds, as long as you knock rhythmically, you just follow the cow.

Those disciples with a lot of land in their families also understood, nodded and said: "This is really a good way. It's very simple. In this way, one person can be used as four people! And both men and women are welcome, no need to bend down And back pain."

Hearing people's praise, Liuzhi showed a smile on his face, and couldn't help but also boasted: "Since it is in line with the will of heaven, it is of course good. Brother Shi said that although this method is fast, it still has some shortcomings. Wait for Mo Di After the master comes back, he will ask Mr. Mo Di to make a big log, the same principle, but it will be pulled by oxen and horses, and it will be able to plow a hundred acres of land in a day."

"The ones that are knocked by hand will be used on hillsides or land with many rocks. The ones that are drawn by oxen will be used on flat land. One man and one ox can cultivate three hundred acres of land. Then use this method of Sumai, two years and three crops, the world will be less famine, this is the way we Mohists save the world, let the world know that as long as you know the will of heaven, you can save a lot of effort, Plant more land and spin more yarn."

Liuzhi stood up and said in a tone that didn't look like a child: "We Mohists, don't we just want to get rid of the disadvantages of the world and promote the benefits of the world? In this world, there are political affairs, state affairs, farming, all kinds of crafts, and military warfare." ... If you want to promote the benefits of the world, you must do your best like building a wall. Since we Mohists are pioneers, we must understand political affairs, state affairs, farming, various crafts, and military warfare! Only this can be called profit The world, is there only political affairs in this world?"

These words were obviously not what he thought of himself, especially the tone and eyebrows when he said it, he was clearly imitating the person who said these words.

He wanted to pretend to be an adult at such a young age, and all the Mohists who watched laughed and patted his head to show their goodwill.

Only Qin Huali asked after laughing, "You said we Mohist... Could it be that you are also Mohist at such a young age?"

　The acres used at this time are all hundreds of acres, which is very small.The principle of knocking wheat seeds, think about the chicken water feeder, but it is not water, and the seeds are shaken to the outside by vibration, causing the "water level" to decrease, so that the seeds in the seed basket can be replaced.This is also the prototype principle of the columbine car.Cracking wheat seeds can be done with a broken stone and a few pieces of wood, but the efficiency is three times higher than that of seed scattering.When there are more people and less land, no one will use it; if there are fewer people and more land, it will soon become popular.

　　Without this thing, it is impossible for winter wheat to spread among the common people. This thing is very important.
