Da Mao dragged the plow and galloped through the field, while a group of people stood at the stalks and watched stupidly.

The person holding the plow now is Liu Dezhu. This boy has a lot of energy in him. He holds the plow and runs at full speed. He laughs while running, and he is in perfect harmony with the two big-haired lads who are running ahead.

"Slow down, slow down!"

Although Liu Fulin hoped that the work in the field would be finished quickly, he threw his grandson again. Unfortunately, Liu Fulin didn't care about anything at all, and the child ran away as he ran away.

"How can a bear be so strong?" Tao Yisheng found it a bit unbelievable. According to his understanding, the strength of a bear is strong, but it is not much stronger than an ox. However, the strength of this bear is a bit beyond his imagination.

He pulled the plow and ran away as if he was not pulling anything. This made him doubt his previous knowledge for a moment.

"Who knows, have you ever seen a bear pull something?" Zheng Youcai turned his head and looked at Tao Yisheng and asked curiously.

Tao Yisheng waved his hand: "I've never seen that before, but...".

"It's just nothing. I haven't seen it before, so what can I say? Oh, people who see this skill really like it. The only pity is that it can only be used here. It would be great if it could be brought back to our team."

Everyone understands that Zheng Youcai wants to ask Da Mao to pull the plow for his nephew's house. Regarding Zheng Youcai's love for his nephew, everyone can also understand that the bottom line in Zheng Youcai's heart, who is childless, is to wait until he is old and unable to move.

His nephew and his wife take care of him, so if he has some good things, he goes to his nephew's house.

But after all the confusion, Zheng Youcai still had the basic skills. He got his own things back, but he didn't touch other people's things at all, including the things belonging to his apprentice Liu Dezhu.

With this bottom line, Zheng Youcai is not annoying.

"I can take it back but you can't afford to hire one. Let alone two days, how much meat can you feed to Da Mao for one meal? I guess your nephew's whole family would rather pull the plow themselves than let Da Mao pull the plow."

"Tao Yisheng said with a smile.

This is a bit heartbreaking, but Zheng Youcai has no way to refute it, because what he said is true. A meal of meat for a bear weighs more than ten or twenty kilograms. This is still the least. It is enough for the whole family of these people.

It's been a month, why would you save half a day's time?

"Yes!" Zheng Youcai said with a smile.

Everyone continued to look at the man and the bear in the field, and when they turned back twice more, Da Mao dropped his arrogance and ran to Gu Siwei's side happily.

Gu Siwei picked up two pieces of peach cake, threw it into Da Mao's mouth, and stroked its brain shell at the same time. Gu Siwei liked Da Mao very much when he touched the brain shell.

They all had smiles on their faces, and their faces were full of indescribable spring breeze.

"Hey, this is for work. One acre of land only yields half a bag of peach cakes. It's really suitable." Liu Fulin smiled and stretched out his hand, stroking the back of Da Mao's head.

Da Mao was eating very gracefully now, taking small bites and then clicking his mouth non-stop, as if he wanted to squeeze out the last trace of sweetness in the peach cake in his mouth.

Gu Siwei had a new plan in mind, and after thinking about it, he asked the old people nearby: "What do you think I would like to do to double the size of this plow mirror?"

"Not very good," Liu Fuzhou quickly concluded.

Gu Siwei was a little confused and turned to look at Liu Fulin curiously.

Just when I was about to ask a question, Liu Fulin opened his mouth first.

"I know you want to plow deeper and the ridges can be bigger, but have you ever thought about why the plowshare is so big? To be honest, if it is bigger, the plow body will not be able to bear the force, and the big hair can pull,

But the plow can't stand it. If you want to change the plow mirror to twice the size, it's best to use an iron plow. This way it has more weight and won't break. Nowadays, the wooden plow, especially the curved shaft head in the front

"Have you noticed, it's getting a little louder now..."

As an old farmer, Liu Fulin still knows these basic things even though he worked as a small shop outside most of the time.

"Iron cast?" Gu Siwei asked.

Making a plow made of iron is a problem for others, but it is not a big deal for him. He also has cheap apprentices here, and his apprentice, his father. Getting a plow is not a problem, the key is whether it is necessary or not.

"It would be better if it was made of stainless steel," Liu Fulin said with a smile.

Tao Yisheng said at this time: "What kind of plow can we make out of fine steel? Just use a three-head plow with iron rollers on the left and right sides. In this way, you can use your hands to support it, and people can stand on it and rely on the weight to hold it down."

As long as the plow can be dragged by big hair, it will be at least three times faster than the current one, and people don't need to run with it."

"What plow?"

When Gu Siwei heard that he no longer needed to run, he immediately became energetic. He had no choice but to run with Da Mao for more than half an hour. Even if he had to run and take a break, Gu Siwei couldn't bear it. In terms of physical strength, this person is really different from Da Mao.

There is no comparison between a bear and a dog.

Tao Yisheng said: "I can't explain it in vain, I will draw it for you later."

"Let's draw it now. I'm also very curious. A three-headed plow?" Liu Fulin thought this thing was a bit advanced and he had never heard of it.

Tao Yisheng said: "This is a plow pulled by three oxen. I think Da Mao is very strong, so I guess it can be pulled by just one. It's actually quite simple."

As he spoke, Tao Yisheng stretched out his hand, found a hard twig on the stem next to him, and started to draw lightly on the ground.

"First of all, to keep the plow stable, that is, it can stand without anyone's support, it must have three wheels. The wheel layout is triangular, with two horizontal frames in the middle. If there is no horizontal frame, you can just install the plow on a triangular frame.

It’s okay to go up. Pay attention to the fact that the plow must be able to be raised and lowered, so that the depth of the plow inserted into the soil can be adjusted..."

Gu Siwei was playing with machines. He understood what Tao Yisheng said. It was very similar to the plows used by large tractors decades later.

Of course, no matter how powerful the tractor is, it cannot be larger than a tractor, so even a three-head plow is smaller than a plow pulled by a large tractor.

"How do you adjust the height of this thing?" Liu Fulin didn't understand.

Tao Yisheng glanced at Gu Siwei and asked, "Do you understand?"

Gu Siwei nodded. Seeing that Tao Yisheng obviously wanted to test himself, he opened his mouth and said, "You can use a hydraulic device...".

When talking about it, Tao Yisheng was dumbfounded. He didn't know what a hydraulic device was. The most primitive method he saw for this kind of plow was the lock adjustment. It was very simple, that is, there were many holes in the plow column.

, just insert the pin into the hole as high as you want. The advantage is that it is convenient, but the disadvantage is that the height cannot be adjusted at will.

If you want to adjust it to 1, 2, 3, it's okay, but if you want to adjust it to 1, 5 or something, it won't work, because there is no hole between 1 and 2, so you can't adjust it to this height.

But Gu Siwei's method is that you can adjust the height to whatever height you want. Of course, it is unrealistic to make this thing now, and Gu Siwei has no way to get a hydraulic device.

Lao Gu knew what it was, but at the current level of Qiao Qisheng's factory, it was impossible to produce a hydraulic press device that Gu Siwei thought was qualified.

It's not that it's unimaginable, but the manufacturing level is not good enough. Don't underestimate a simple little thing decades from now. It will be a technical difficulty in this time period.

Although Gu Siwei was a part-time worker, this little thing couldn't trouble him. After knowing what Tao Yisheng was talking about, Gu Siwei began to design it in his mind.

Now I just think that if he really wants to do it, Gu Siwei will have to pick up a pen and paper and draw a more accurate picture. Although the things are simple, Gu Siwei is still very serious when doing things. This is what his previous master taught him.

habit.

"How about it?"

Liu Fulin asked his grandson Liu Dezhu.

Liu Dezhu grinned widely and said with a silly smile: "It's so fun, I will play again later."

"...".

Liu Fulin was a little speechless looking at his grandson, who was still running around and sweating profusely but still wanted to play.

Gu Siwei came back to his senses at this time, heard Liu Dezhu's words, and said with a smile: "You have a rest, I will help you play twice later, and then I will let you play."

Gu Siwei really didn't dare to let Liu Dezhu keep running like this. The weather is not cold now and the temperature has risen. If he keeps running like this under the sun, heatstroke will be mild. If something happens, it will be serious.

It won't be beautiful.

At this time, Tao Yisheng said: "Actually, it's enough to plow up to here today. We may not be able to plant these tonight. Let's plant what we plowed first and wait until tomorrow to plow again. Da Mao is too

It’s powerful, but we people can’t keep up with it.”

Tao Yisheng is telling the truth. Now, there are only two people who can lift Mao La's plow. One is Liu Dezhu and the other is Gu Siwei. Guo Shengshou is not very old, but his physical strength is not good. He cannot match Mao Guang's speed.

Guo Shengshou is lazy, but his health has never been very good. He can do some physical work, but running under the sun is really not good.

Gu Siwei didn't want to do it anymore, because he really couldn't bear it. As for Liu Dezhu, he wanted to do it, but no one would let him do it anymore, so he stopped working on the plowing today.

The work on the land has been harvested, and there are other tasks. The sweet potato seedlings collected from the village need to be planted. Without machines, people have to plant them one by one. Fortunately, the holes left here are relatively large, and almost all the villagers

Generally leave more than half the distance.

One is that Gu Siwei wants to keep it, and the other is that if the seedlings are planted too densely, there won’t be that many seedlings. After all, it was Gu Siwei who took over the seedlings when no one else was planting them. Every family has to guard against the ones that are not enough, so it is impossible for the family to just keep them.

It would be unrealistic to leave half of it, so when Gu Siwei collected it, it was not enough as originally planned.

The rice seedlings were planted until dark and everyone finished eating.

Today Gu Siwei had to send Liu Fulin and his grandson Wu Meiling and Guo Shengshou home. They had not been home for a few days and they were going back to stay for one night.

Of course, things had to be brought home, so Gu Siwei gave each family a pack of snacks and a bag of rice.

Tao Yisheng and Zheng Youcai, who had no relatives or friends, stayed here directly. Now they live in the house that Gu Siwei planned to use as a utility room.

There was nothing unfamiliar to the two of them. The utility room in Gu Siwei's house was much more spacious and bright than theirs.

The next day we picked up two families and continued working.

Just like this, over and over again, gradually there are more and more seedlings in the ground, and dots of green appear on the originally gray-yellow land.
