Wolf King

When the planting work was completed, the Snow Wolf people thought that they had finally finished their work. As a result, Ayun said that he had nothing to do, and he had to repair the basic water conservancy of the farmland.

It was easy to dig for more than a month to dig a ditch around the wheat field. The snow wolves thought that they had finally finished their work. As a result, Ayun waved his hand and told them to think too much. Build waterwheels together to repair the sluice gates, while others, continue to dig the ditch into soybean fields and vegetable fields until the entire field is connected...

Including the patriarch, the snow wolves who understood the meaning of Xiao Yun showed dull faces.

At first glance, Xiao Yun swallowed the words like digging a pond to store water, repairing a river, and so on. He actually said these projects early in the morning. Obviously, these stupid guys have no memory at all.

Qing Cao and A Yue, the young couple, watched the clan who walked away with the **** on their heads, looked at each other for a moment, and looked at A Yun synchronously and gratefully. It's so good to dig a ditch in the same way!

The sluice at the inlet and outlet of the canal is not difficult. The excess red bricks burned when building the house, a small amount of neat stones and earth and cement mixed with a large number of reed rods plug the mouth, leaving a few active red bricks necessary. You can move it away when you are done.

If you build a waterwheel, it's really a skill. You can't rely on the Snow Werewolf's own home. You have to call the adult rabbits who are talented by handicraftsmen.

A log was broken into two halves, half of which was hollowed out and stuck diagonally above the water inlet to make a diversion tool for diversion of the water brought by the waterwheel into the ditch, which was handed to Asan.

Then there is the main body of the waterwheel, which is technically plain and not too high.

Waterwheel, the simplest and most primitive farming irrigation tool that primary school students will do. The whole is wheel-shaped. The side wheel is made of cut wood chips to form a triangular trough on the side. When the water wheel drives the water wheel to rotate, the water tank at the side wheel can automatically bring the water in the low channel to the high place.

Whether it is the oldest Lanzhou waterwheel or the southern keel waterwheel, the principle is the same, but the waterwheels made by people in different regions will differ in size, shape, and water sink For example, the sink is not a triangular shape but a barrel shape, or a blade shape.

There is a difference in height between the inlet bank and the river by about one meter. Considering the different heights of the river surface in spring, summer and autumn, Xiao Yun decided to make a smaller waterwheel that can be raised or lowered if necessary. The small waterwheel of about three and five meters, of course, such a small waterwheel will have a slight shortage in water intake efficiency, so pay special attention to the design of the water tank-the side triangular water tank at the side wheel position can be made larger, Relatively deep.

It is said that the technical content is not high. Elementary school students understand the principle, but if you want to make a qualified waterwheel, you still need a size standard... Without a standard ruler, how to make parts that can be assembled?

There are no nails for you to use in this place. To assemble the waterwheel, you must rely on the tenon and mortise structure. If the sinks made are not equal in size, how can they be put together?

Before starting to build a waterwheel, Xiao Yun summoned a tribe (including Qingyan) and seven adult rabbits. Whether they understand it or not, they first talked about the importance of the standard ruler. N face.

"In short, whether we can create a waterwheel that automatically draws water from the river is related to our harvest this year." Xiao Yun solemnly said, "It has not rained for ten consecutive days before. Everyone can only use human water to irrigate. forget?"

Everyone was shivering one by one, and it was strange to forget it. After spending two days and nights pouring the fields, they didn't want to deal with so much water in this life.

Xiao Yun clenched his fist hard: "So we must build a waterwheel! And the first step in building a waterwheel is to establish our standard measurement, and everyone must resolutely execute it! Uncle Ashan, you come forward. "

"Ah?" Ah Shan scratched his scalp and got up and walked to Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun also stood up, revealing a smooth ground leg of a beast, which was opened horizontally towards everyone: "First, we have to determine the standard length measurement, such as how long is one meter, one hundredth of a meter. , How long is one centimeter." Then patted Uncle Ashan's shoulder, "Based on my uncle Ashan's standard, suppose Ashan's height is one meter eight... Well, the decimal point is not easy to calculate, change the integer, one meter eight two is good Assuming that the height of Ah Shan is one meter eight two, then we all know that the length of the foot sole is one-seventh of the height. In other words, the height of Ah Shan is one meter eighty-two centimeters, then the length of the sole of Ah Shan is twenty Six centimeters."

The witty Dahe, the clever Qingyan and Qiu could not understand what Xiao Yun was talking about, and all looked at him blankly.

Xiao Yun squatted down, let Ashan take off his shoes, lifted his feet, pressed the animal bones to the bottom of his feet, and scratched the animal bones with claws to make a score on the animal bones, and then took the animal that made the marks Bone showed to everyone: "This length is the length of Ah Shan's foot base, twenty-six centimeters!"

"..." Everyone looked at him blankly.

Xiao Yun took out a reed rod and straightened it to correspond with the score on the animal's bone: "It can be seen from the comparison of the score on the animal's bone that the total length of this section of this reed rod is 26 centimeters." He used his paw Pinch off the head and tail of the reed rod, and then fold the reed rod of the length in half and cut off from the middle. "Half the length is 13 centimeters."

Carve a 13-centimeter scratch on the animal's bone, then fold the reed rod in half to obtain a 6.5-centimeter scratch, and then use the existing values ​​to calculate where the one-centimeter scratch is and where the two-centimeter scratch is... After the aboriginals were helpless and trembling, Xiao Yun lifted the scratched beast bone: "This is our standard length! Whether we build waterwheels now, or we will build something more in the future We must strictly follow this length standard for many things!"

...Including A Shan, who is regarded as a standard length reference, everyone opened his mouth halfway and looked at A Yun with excitement.

In fact, Xiao Yun doesn't really care if everyone understands, as long as everyone can come as he wants, if he doesn't understand it, he doesn't understand it. But now looking at this humiliating cold scene, Xiao Yun, who has worked out a super cheeky face in the modern workplace, still feels a bit embarrassed.

"It seems necessary to catch up on literacy work...well, I'm busy with this when I'm on a farm." Xiao Yun pondered his chin.

"...Ayun, your eyes look terrible." Qiu felt the hair on the back of his neck exploded and swallowed carefully.

"Are you wrong? It's okay. Come to the ball. Since we already have a ruler, let's take a look at how tall you are. I have been curious for a long time."

Grabbing Qiu to take off his shoes and measure the soles of his feet, and then do a multiplication operation at the elementary school level, Xiao Yun burst into laughter and couldn't help laughing: "The lying trough is one meter and five four...ball, if you go to the world of giants You can find someone who is nicknamed the commander of the army to make friends. The two of you will form a group of exquisite boys to make them red."

autumn:"??"

After drawing the calabash to make a dozen bone scales, Xiao Yun began to explain to everyone how to make the parts of the waterwheel and what standards are used-the axle of the waterwheel is directly made of off-the-shelf logs. To process; the large wheel pages allow the Snow Wolf tribe to slowly grind with a sickle; the exquisite sink blades allow Tu Hao to exert their manual ability.

Processing wood according to the prescribed length has not been touched by everyone. At the beginning, it is inevitable that a 10 cm part is longer than 15 cm. Fortunately, Xiao Yun helped Xiao Yun to make a hand-operated spinning machine before, and Tu Hao had been dealing with this hand-operated spinning machine since he came to the tribe. Sex.

After five days, the waterwheel with a diameter of 3.5 meters, which was built with the simplest card-and-mortise structure, was finally completed.

The side of the inlet of the canal is made of red bricks, and the platform where the bearing logs are inserted is built. The other end of the bearing is supported by a wooden pile driven into the bottom of the river. The platform on the river bank can be filled with bricks to raise the bearing. The multi-channel support bearing height can be adjusted according to the change of the river water surface, and two snow werewolves can adjust the height of the waterwheel.

After the water wheel enters the water, the wheels of the water wheel are driven by the blades of the flowing river, and the deep triangular water tank on the side wheel is filled with water as the water wheel rubs against the log bearing and squeaks. The rotation of the river brings the river to a high place and flows into the diversion trough that connects the drainage water...

The tribes who worked hard and sweat stood on the bank of the river, watching the water slowly brought into the canal by the waterwheel, and their expressions were novel and exciting... After watching for a while, the dazed Qingyan turned to look at Xiao Yun:" Ayun, doesn't this water seem to **** up quickly?"

"It's not as good as a few people grabbing a clay pot to scoop water." Xiao Yun nodded, the waterwheel is so big, the sink can be so deep, and the efficiency of water absorption is naturally not high, "but this thing is not You will not rest if you are tired. It absorbs water when we do other tasks. It also absorbs water when we sleep. Except when the river is frozen in winter, it cannot work. In other times, it will be here every day, every year. Never stop bringing the river water into the ditches we dug so that we can irrigate the fields nearby."

"Oh..." Everyone understood, and all expressed a shocked little expression.

Xiao Yun smiled and looked at everyone: "This is the convenience of the tool. The wood we cut down is processed by our hands to make a tool. This tool can always bring us convenience. With the waterwheel, With the ditch we dug, as long as there is still water flowing in the river, we can irrigate the fields, take water to take a bath and cook food, so we don’t have to go to the river to scoop water. So, everyone said, why don’t we What about digging aqueducts and making waterwheels?"

"Uh huh!" The people nodded together, A Shan was particularly happy, "Tools are really good."

"Nature is a good thing. Our intelligent race is more powerful than those of beasts, beasts, and even Warcraft, that is, we can make tools to use. For example, uncle, when you and Hongye hunt, your bow and arrow are more powerful than the most fierce beasts. The claws and teeth are also lethal. For example, the house we built, the repaired ondol and the floor warmer are more suitable for life than the most extensive cave occupied by the dragon tribe...the best cave is also cold when it snows, right?"

Xiao Yun and all the others nodded and continued to fool around, "So if we want to live better and happier, we can't do without a variety of convenient tools. Well, since everyone agrees so, then let's make another The waterwheel, everyone has experience, and this time it will be easier to build than the first one."

"..." The people who hadn't slowed down from their happy and excited energy looked at Ayun stiffly.

Irrigation of 3,000 acres of land, vegetable fields with a lot of draughts, and one ditch is not enough. How could a waterwheel be enough to solve the problem of water absorption... It is still summer when it is just entering the summer. Energy saving can see rainwater. When the watering is insufficient, then wait for the reduction of production-this is for the tribal farming industry, it is not Xiao Yun who wants to toss people!

Well, Xiao Yun did not participate in the whole process of this time. It was not that he wanted to be lazy, but that he had more important things to do-sixty fields and a total of 600 acres of wheat fields entered an important tillering period.

Winter is too long and it’s casually on the prairie at minus twenty or thirty degrees. Winter wheat is impossible to exist. At least don’t think about it until you don’t have the ability to produce frost-resistant wheat seeds. Yuan Longping, the grassland, did not go. Toss about it blindly.

Compared with winter wheat that has a longer growth period and better taste, although spring wheat tastes a bit worse, it is better than a short growth period... Just sixty days after sowing, the wheat seedlings in the wheat field have entered the tillering period.

The importance of tillering of wheat is self-evident. The number of tillers of wheat seedlings directly determines the number of ears. The most powerful tiller of wheat seedlings is that some people have cultivated hundreds of tillers and extracted more than one hundred wheat with a grain of wheat. Sui--Well, just listen to this myth, and Xiao Yun will not have this dream.

In the wheat field where verdant wheat seedlings grow into ridges, Xiao Yun walked in and checked the results of the weeding... Uh, no herbicides, and it was the first year of the wasteland. Although there was no embarrassment of the sparse grass seedlings, but The weeds coming out are still so disgusting-this is still the case when Xiao Yun sprayed soapy water and weeded before fertilizing and sowing. If the soapy water was not sprinkled at that time, the problem would be worse.

Weeding in the wheat field, if you pull the grass, it is likely to damage the root system of the wheat seedlings, so before the tillering period, Xiao Yun dragged the rabbits again and again sprayed soapy water for weeding...

The situation of weeds under weeding has been controlled a lot, but there are still scattered ones. In this case, Xiao Yun has nothing to do. I can only hope that after the harvest, there will be an iron plow that can be used and plowing him more. Several times the field turned the grass seeds out to freeze the snow.

Squatted down to check the wheat seedlings. Sure enough, some of the seedlings had a tiller bud that was slightly shorter than the finger in the base of the leaves. With their eyes widened on the floor, they counted carefully. Tillering buds—Fertilization before sowing and topdressing after emergence are still very effective. Xiao Yun pulled the tribes and rabbits and the sweat (and tears) sprinkled in the wheat field so that these wheats domesticated by tauren grow very well gratifying.

"Remember that Uncle said that the number of tillers should be controlled during the tillering period... This is probably not needed. This wheat seed is not a wheat seed that has been tuned by agronomists on the earth. There is no gene for crazy tillering, about 30 tillers. If the bud is not good, it is the limit." Looking at the wheat seedling with joy, Xiao Yun tried hard to recall the knowledge of wheat growing. "What else should be paid attention to... The tillering stage is an important period for root growth, light I’m not afraid of the temperature. The weather is warm and the sunshine is still long. The climate on the grassland is still quite suitable for wheat growth. If water is used, the wheat field with the priority of the canal, don’t worry, just pay more attention to irrigation... Well, it’s just a poor topdressing. "

At the time of emergence, a wave of bone meal compound fertilizer was used to replace a wave. Afterwards, Xiao Yun urged the tribes to do the work and did not forget the matter of fertilizer... What is the length of the crop? With one water, two fertilizers and three pesticides, without these three items, half of the population on the planet is starved to death.

Now that there are only 32 people in the main ethnic group, it is more beautiful to dream of a flower fertilizer industry than to dream. Only natural fertilizer can be expected. Fortunately, the weather is getting warmer at this time. It doesn’t take months to ferment like winter. The humus in the jungle, bird droppings, bone powder smashed from the bones in the old nest of the scorpion tail lion, human and animal feces The black mud dug in the swamp has been piled and fermented on the open field near the wheat field for more than forty days, and can be used for shoveling.

It should be noted that the top dressing in this period can not be carried out in the early stage of tillering. After the peak of tillering, the standard name is "joint top dressing". The purpose is to promote the formation of large tillers and increase the rate of ears. The output at the time.

In the process of top dressing, it can not be applied evenly as before. You must pay attention to the details. Wheat seedlings with more tillers (more than 30 buds) should slightly reduce the amount of fertilization and control watering; medium tillers (about 30) Apply it evenly. If there are fewer tillers (less than 20), apply more fertilizer and water more.

The fermented and mature soil is mixed with water and spoiled. Depending on the tillering of the wheat seedlings, the fertilizer water is carefully applied to the soil near the roots of the wheat seedlings... This kind of thing is to let the snow werewolves last year do it than to embroider them. Difficult, what is now... well, the potential of people is forced out, this is an absolute truth.

After five days of suspension, all the staff fertilized, and the work was done. Although the snow wolves who were not tired but were too tired to describe it all lay silently on the edge of the fields and missed the sky, remembering the previous days of carefree grazing and hunting...Results I haven’t missed any tears yet, and the devil Ayun shouted them again and announced a very important event:

"Our cabbage should be harvested!"

"Huh?" The patriarch who beat the old waist just didn't understand.

"I mean, we should harvest the Chinese cabbage." Xiao Yun wiped the sweat on his forehead. "Well... I have to apologize to you first. The three vegetables that the Tauren gave were the best. It’s usually grown in about 50 days...but I’m not busy and dizzy, things happen one by one...but it doesn’t matter if the harvest is made ten to ten days later, at most it is a little bit older. In short, The Chinese cabbage in our field has to be harvested quickly. If you harvest it, you can continue planting it!"

The snow werewolf and the rabbits outside Qingyan looked at each other, and they all cast their sights on Xiao Yun...can't blame them for their slow response. These days, even the cats and paws of the rabbits and cats are called to be busy and sleeping for a day. It’s shorter than a day, and every day I open my eyes, I don’t have time to think about it, so Ayun rushes around, and now Xiao Yun tells them what crops are harvested—no sense of reality!

In the daze, all the staff followed A Yun to the vegetable field where the Chinese cabbage was planted... At a glance, all the ridges covered the cabbage, the adult plant and the head of the tauren were about the size of the head, and some of the outermost old Mature Chinese cabbage whose leaves have turned yellow and rotten in the ground.

Xiao Yun looked back to see everyone's reaction.

No one responded.

Xiao Yun was a little puzzled, and he stretched out his hand before shaking them hard.

Still no response, everyone's previous expression is still the same expression.

"I said...although we only applied the second fertilizer at the beginning and added two waterings at the back to grow this vegetable, we didn't manage it at any other time, but it was also our own vegetable field. No feelings?" Xiao Yun twitched his mouth.

Vegetable fields need a lot of water, so Xiao Yun chose to plant vegetables in fields that are closer to the swamp and the terrain is relatively low. The climate in spring and summer is still relatively strong, and it can be rained next time and encountered once in two months. It's been raining for ten days... Xiao Yun who has to pay attention to everything and pay special attention to the wheat field naturally ignores these Chinese cabbages, which also need human care.

And the tribes... To be honest, I can’t finish my work every day. How can I think about what I want to think about—Isn’t anyone squinting when I have the opportunity to sit down? Unreasonable A Yun dragged people up in the middle of the night to work, not once or twice, and time was not enough.

The patriarch slowly turned his head to meet Xiao Yun's gaze, and slowly raised his finger to the Chinese cabbage. The voice was like sleepwalking: "Ayun? We planted it?"

"Yes, we planted it." Xiao Yun nodded.

"We planted it?"

"We planted it!" Xiao Yun raised his voice and drank.

"Boom", the clan exploded, the sound was noisy, and I couldn't hear it at all...

"Okay!" Xiao Yun hoeed his hand with a sickle and knocked hard. "All stop, don't talk about nonsense, don't talk nonsense, hurry up to collect the vegetables! Let’s let go if Ye is not rotten!"

… Well, the sound of the iron farming tool that caused the wolf of the Snow Werewolf sounded and everyone was honest.

Within the tribe, there is a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.

Fertilization, which requires physical work, Xiao Yun was not cruel enough to use kindergarten classmates and elementary school juniors, and the four rabbit cubs cleverly stayed in the tribe.

The cat family has always been curious, and sneaked near the mushroom room. Thrall scolded them several times. The cubs did not learn well. Seeing that Thrall, who had been busy for a long time, left the mushroom room and took a rest in the chase. The room, sneaking close to the most mysterious and closed enoki mushroom production place in that snow werewolf tribe...

"Aoao Aoao Aoao--!!!"

Suddenly, the howling sounds startled the rabbit cubs who had only touched halfway, and the four people quickly fled back to the activity room holding hands, and after a while, they secretly came out of their heads and looked out curiously.

Then they saw... the horns dragged the trawls made of vines and straws, and the unidentified green leaves on the trawls were rushing towards the tribe with gas.

The horns entered the tribe, untied the trawls, and quickly moved the Chinese cabbages on the trawls down to piles, and put the tow ropes of the vine grass nets on the shoulders. Flying out.

The cubs: "?"

I didn’t wait for these cubs to come out to see what the horns were dragging back, and heard the strange sound of "Oh, oh, oh--" coming from outside the tribe. This time I will watch again, dragging the same object back. It is Qingyan.

The cubs: "?!"

Qingyan Tow had much less weight than horns, and quickly unloaded everything to the ground and ran away again.

Then red leaves...Ashan...Ayue...

The rabbits and cubs looked in horror at the growing number of unidentified leafy objects piled in the tribe, with question marks in their heads.
