Chapter 72 Your Majesty, Li Yi has something good again (Fifth)

When it is not busy with the farming, there are more idlers.

Said it is idle, but in fact there is less work in the fields, including sericulture.

Many men came out to find work, and some were expropriated to repair water conservancy and roads.

Li Yi and Li Longji talked about canceling the transfer and levying business tax. Li Longji knew about it, but he didn’t dare to move.

Li Longji was waiting, waiting for his own army to be trained.

Otherwise, Li Longji felt that he couldn’t handle the interests of the families, and there would be chaos or something.

In the morning, Li Yi took another twenty people who had learned several stitching operations and practiced finger-pointing, and then ran to the river to watch the team fishing the silt.

On the surface of the Bashui River, there are boats with people standing on them, and a large wooden shelf stands on the boats.

On the wooden shelf is a simple hand Calabash designed and manufactured by Li Yi, which is the tool of the pulley block.

Then a large iron excavator-like spoon was thrown into the river and tied with an iron chain.

When the boat moved, a large spoonful of silt was caught, and the people on the boat clashed on Calabash’s chain, and the iron spoon was slowly lifted up.

If you don’t have this hand Calabash, you would use a long rod to clean up the sludge. The head of the rod is a spoon, similar to a big dung spoon.

Slowly fish a little bit.

Li Yi clearly has a good way, and he has money. How can he do that?



He hired people to do the work and asked others to earn more, so that the winter would pass.

One is to increase longevity, and the other is to be in a good mood.

When a doctor, I hope that every patient he handles is healthy. When a rich person, I also hope to help others and gain gratitude from others.

In the Tang Dynasty, many wealthy households paid money to repair bridges and repair roads. Those who died and did not have money to bury them also had to use money to help.

Especially the people in the same village. If the rich have no good reputation and the villagers don’t support it, something will happen.

Does Li Yi’s Zhuangzi have any money? So, for several purposes, he asked people to pay more and fish for silt.

The muddy fields are fertile, the river channel has less silt, and it is convenient for boats. He also plans to use this river channel for convenience.

He is too busy now to get his hands free, otherwise he would have used the water already.

“Lord Li.” Li Yigang came over, and someone dressed as an official greeted him.

Li Yi recalled that he had the impression of Zheng Guang, a member of the Ministry of Industry and Water Department.

Zheng Guang also brought a few people. Don’t look at him as a seventh-rank official. That’s inferior to the prime ministers.

The members of the Ministry of Water have real power, and there are people under them.

“Member Zheng, don’t come here unharmed?” Li Yi cupped hands.

“The proprietor Lao Li is concerned, what is the thing that can make the big iron spoon rise a little by pulling it a lot?” Zheng Guang pointed to Calabash and asked.

The iron spoon is heavy, it needs a lot of people to pull directly.

If it is a counterweight, using the principle of leverage, there is a big stone behind, and the boat needs to be bigger, otherwise the stone and the iron spoon that lifts the silt will not be able to bear it.

Those who followed Zheng Guang were curious, is Zheng Yuanwailang still so polite to the people of Zhuangzi? Although this villager has some money.

Zheng Guang didn’t know what the people thought, but he knew what Li Yi was capable of. His Majesty, the Prime Minister, and the King and Queen all followed suit and laughed.

“If Proprietor Li is willing to help, my officer, oh, I can commend Proprietor Li…”

“Zheng Yuan is polite, just one hand Calabash, I have drawings, Zheng Yuan will use them outside, not only for dredging, but also for loading and unloading at the terminal.”

Without waiting for Zheng Guang to finish speaking, Li Yi waved his hand and agreed.

He doesn’t need anyone to help him on the watch. The things he took out have increased his lifespan. Obviously it was promoted by the court. How could Li Longji know?

What’s more, he also helped to train soldiers, and it was useless to send a small official watch of the seventh rank.

“Qingsong, which craftsman holds Calabash’s drawings? Get a copy.” Li Yi turned his head and said to the eunuch.

Qing Song turned his head and ran away. Zheng Guang’s attendants were stunned. The eunuch and the court lady listened to this one?

I thought it was the palace sent to see the water conservancy.

“Hello, Li Dongzhu.”

“Good proprietor!”

People on the nearby silt fishing boat saw Li Yi one after another and shouted hello.

Li Yi waved his hand, feeling full of accomplishment at this moment.

It was as if a patient was cured and the other party sent a pennant.

So he shouted: “When I went back at night, one person brought two salted duck eggs. You know, there are too many ducks on the Zhuangzi, and there is no place to put the eggs, don’t you? Help me eat them.”

There was a sound of thanks and laughter on the river.

The farmer on Zhuangzi who was responsible for moving the silt had a smile on his face.

The silt is good, and there is loach in the key silt.

The people who fished the silt just worked, and all the things they fished belonged to Zhuangzi.

The loach is naturally Zhuangzi’s and can be eaten.

When Qing Song brought the drawing, Li Yi handed it to Zheng Guang.

Zheng Guang cautiously put it in his arms, his eyes continued to stare at the hand Calabash, the more he looked, the more magical he became.

One person can pull something worth more than ten people without any effort, but it takes a long time.

After watching for a while, he led people to leave in a hurry, to report back to the Ministry of Industry and tell Shang Shu.

What was taken away was not only the drawing, but also a physical object.

Wei Zhigu, Shangshu from the Ministry of Industry, didn’t know that he had been changed.

I am very motivated to work.

Then I saw Zheng Guang, who had leapfrogged his report, and learned that Li Yiyou had invented a new thing.

“From now on, whenever there is something about Li Yizhuangzi, you directly contact me.” Wei Zhigu knew the consequences of Zheng Guang’s leapfrog report.

He understood that if he didn’t leapfrog, if Shangguan Zheng Guang didn’t pay attention to it, he would lose the time to discover good things quickly.

At that time, Zheng Guang’s Shangguan had to be cleaned up. Zheng Guang bought time for himself and protected Shangguan at the same time. Okay.

Zheng Guang almost cried, that’s what he wanted to drop.

I even thought about doing meritorious service and getting promoted.

When he left, Wei Zhigu dragged Calabash to Xingqing Hall. In theory, he should go to the political affairs hall to find the prime minister.

He knew where the Zhengshitang was, and he could walk there with his eyes closed.

But he just didn’t go and sighed.

When I arrived at Xingqing Palace, I saw three prime ministers.

He dragged Calabash in with difficulty: “Your Majesty, Zheng Guang, a member of the Water Department of the Ministry of Ministers and Industry, has learned of a magical tool from Li Yi Zhuangzi.”

“Is it an artifact again?” Yao Chong asked when he looked at the chained thing.

“Your Majesty, with this thing, one person can make ten people.” Wei Zhigu ignored Yao Chong and said directly to Li Longji.

Li Longji personally came forward, took the drawing, looked at the instructions for use, and ordered someone to make arrangements.

After a while, a large shelf was erected outside the hall, and Calabash hung it up.

Next, a few powerful men moved a large Stone-lock.

Wei Zhigu started, put the Stone-lock on and hung it on one end of the Calabash.

Then he stood on the other side, clattering on the iron chain.

Tugging, the stone-lock, which weighed a kilogram, lifted off the ground, and Wei Zhigu continued to pull, and the Stone-lock rose higher and higher.

Li Longji looked at it, took a deep breath, and said, “If you use it with Jujube, it will be easier to carry heavy objects.”

What he thought was right, the crane, or the tower crane, was more accurate.

The three prime ministers looked at Wei Zhigu’s weak old body smashing, and they were surprised to hang such a large and heavy Stone-lock.

“Li Yi…Ah…” Yao Chong couldn’t say a whole word.

Zhang Shuo shrugged his shoulders like Li Yi he had seen before, didn’t want to talk, compared with people, he was not afraid, but Li Yi was not a human at all.
