Chapter 279 This is called a curved plow
A group of people who went out to investigate the land came back, and the villagers gathered around them and asked about the soil conditions.
Yun Duo looked at Zhou who was also in the crowd and asked: "Second Grandma, has my second grandfather come back? When he comes back, notify everyone to come to the meeting. Uncle Feng also called the old soldiers to come together."
Zhou nodded in agreement.
"Yun Teng, go and invite my uncle over. I have something to talk to him about."
When Zhang Sigui came over, Yun Duo was sitting in the temporary awning that the guards had built for her, looking at the drawings in her hands.
Zhang Sigui's legs are now able to walk, but he walks a little slower than usual.
"Duo'er, do you have something to ask me?"
"Uncle, come and do it. Can you see if you can make this picture?"
This is a blueprint of a curved plow, which Yun Duo found on the computer. It is suitable for oxen, horses, and mules to pull the plow. In the 23rd century when Yun Duo lived, farming was mechanized. This kind of object has been put into the museum. When she was in school, the school took students to visit it, so she had an impression of it.
When they fled the famine, he put an iron plow from his second grandfather's house into the space. The plow was called an iron plow because in fact only the plowshare was made of iron, and the rest was made of wood. It was the old-fashioned straight plow.
She searched on the computer and found that compared with the curved plow, the straight plow is not only not flexible and convenient to operate, but also requires more manpower and physical strength to complete the same amount of work when plowing the fields.
So she found the blueprints and called Zhang Sigui to ask him if he could make it.
When Zhang Sigui took the blueprint, his eyes suddenly lit up. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that such a plow would not only save effort for the animals, but would also make life much easier for the people holding the plow.
"Duo'er, this blueprint is so exquisite and detailed. Every component is clearly shown. As long as we have the tools and wood, we can make it quickly."
"Uncle, this is called a curved plow. My father accidentally saw it in a book. My father and I discussed and drew the picture. I don't know if it is suitable for practical use, so I made one first to give it a try."
Yun Qingsong and Yun Duo discussed it. This place is closer to the capital than the northern border. Yun Duo should not expose herself in any matter. She is a little girl with too much edge. If someone with ulterior motives finds out that she is unusual, it will bring her trouble. So in the future, he can say that everything he says is what he read in a book. In this way, no one will care about a little girl.
After that, Zhang Sigui said a little embarrassedly: "Duo'er, can you lend me some money first so that I can buy a set of carpentry tools? I will pay you back when I make money."
When Yun Duo heard that he could make it, she said happily, "Okay, I will go to the county town tomorrow and buy you the tools, the iron plowshare, and the wood you need."
She had a lot of carpenter tools in her space, all from the two grocery stores she bought in Zhongzhou Prefecture. She had to find a blacksmith to make the plowshare. Although there was wood on the mountain, the newly cut wood could not be used without being naturally dried.
She didn't say that she didn't have to pay back the money. Although Zhang Sigui was a good person, she didn't know if her aunt would do something weird in the future. Recently, she seemed to be behaving well. She rushed to do work with her aunts every day, and she cared more about Qiao'er and her two sisters than before.
Zhang Sigui stared intently at the exquisitely designed curved plow drawing in front of him. He was deeply fascinated by the smooth lines and ingenious design, and he was completely immersed in it and couldn't extricate himself.
Yun Duo sat quietly by the side, holding a pen and paper, carefully writing down a series of ideas that would be announced to everyone at the meeting. She was thinking about how to make more effective use of the existing manpower and how to do more things in a timely manner.
Just as Zhang Sigui was immersed in the wonderful world of the curved plow drawings, Zhou's familiar voice suddenly rang out: "Duo'er, your second grandfather is back from town!" This shout instantly pulled Zhang Sigui's consciousness back to reality from the drawings.
Zhou was followed by Yunhe. She saw Zhang Sigui here and continued, "Is Sigui here too?"
Zhang Sigui nodded and called out, "Second Uncle, Second Aunt."
"Second Grandfather, you are back? Come and sit down." Yun Duo looked at Jinsheng who came back with Yunhe and ordered: "Ring the gong to call all the villagers to the meeting. Kungang, go and invite the old soldiers as well. Let everyone bring their own chairs."
The word "meeting" is no longer unfamiliar to the villagers of Xiangyun Village. They all know that it means to come together in a hurry to discuss matters.
Soon all the villagers came over. Some of them held small stools in their hands, while others came empty-handed. When they arrived, they found a stone and sat on it without caring whether it was dirty or not.
The little kids were running around happily, chasing and playing with each other, and their laughter as clear as silver bells was heard one after another.
The villagers nearby also began to talk and chatter. Some gathered in groups of two or three, some stood alone in the corners, each with a look of curiosity and longing. Soon, the open space in the middle of the village was filled with all kinds of noises, and it was really lively!
Division Five also called a few Division Shadow Guards to build a makeshift platform using a cart.
Before everyone arrived, Yunduo gave Jinsheng some brief training and wrote a simple meeting schedule and gave it to Jinsheng.
Seeing that everyone was present, Yun Duo gave Jinsheng a wink.
Jinsheng walked up to the podium with a wooden horn-shaped loudspeaker in his hand. This was not a high-tech product of Yunduo Space, but something Yunduo found on the shelf of the grocery store he acquired.
Jinsheng shouted loudly to the villagers: "Quiet..." With this loudspeaker, Jinsheng didn't even need to use his internal strength, and the sound reached everyone's ears.
The villagers were silent, waiting for the next announcement.
Jinsheng continued: "Everyone be quiet. This is the first collective meeting of villagers in Xiangyun Village. First, please invite the first village chief of Xiangyun Village, Yun Heyun, to come on stage and speak. Everyone welcome." This was all Yun Duo had trained in advance.
Yun Duo took the lead in applauding, and everyone was stunned for a moment before following suit, and there was warm applause from the audience.
Jinsheng helped Yunhe up to the podium and picked up the loudspeaker. Yunhe cleared his throat and said into the loudspeaker: "Fellow villagers, I am a humble man, but I am grateful to you for your kindness and care and serve as the first village chief of Xiangyun Village.
We came from different villages and supported each other all the way through the northern border. When we got here, we met these veteran brothers, and together we established Xiangyun Village.
Xiangyun Village will be our common home in the future, and we must work together to build our home.
Today we hold this collective meeting. On the one hand, I need to explain the court's support policy for refugees, and on the other hand, we will discuss the next steps of building houses and reclaiming wasteland. "The villagers nodded in agreement.
Yunhe finished talking about the free homesteads and subsidy silver for everyone, and then continued, "I have already collected the silver for everyone. After the meeting, come to me and sign and seal your name to collect it. The 50 kilograms of grain subsidy given by the court to each person needs to be collected at the county government office. We can take our household registration and go there to collect it another day."
"Next, let's talk about what kind of houses we will build. Where will each house be built? And how to choose the land for land reclamation? Let's talk about it. Will it be decided by drawing lots or divided by everyone? Let's talk about your opinions."
Chu Liang has come to understand along the way that Yun Duo is not only capable but also generous. As long as no one has any unnecessary thoughts, following her will not make anyone suffer. Besides, when she was looking at the soil, she said that she already had an idea.
So Chu Liang said directly: "My family will follow the arrangements of the village chief and Miss Yun. We will do whatever they ask us to do, no matter where we build our house or where we open up wasteland."
Chief Cui also said: "We in the Cui clan also listen to the village chief and Miss Yun."
Chief of the Yun clan was not to be outdone: "We in the Yunjia Village are even better. Duo girl, you make the decision. We'll all listen to you." Yun Dachuan thought to himself that Duo girl had been to the fairyland and her experience must be better than those of them.
Now, everyone in the Yun family tacitly believes that Yun Duo has been to the fairyland, but the old patriarch has warned them behind their backs that this is a secret of the Yun family and must not be told to anyone else. If anyone dares to disclose it, they will be expelled from the Yun family.
Lin Hao also said: "My life was saved by Miss Yun. My Lin family listens to Miss Yun."
Not to mention the other companies, who had no objections.
Yun Duo walked up to the stage and said, "Since all the grandparents, uncles and aunts have no objections, I will tell you my opinion. Please listen to it and feel free to give us your opinions if there are any areas that are not well considered."
Now no one thought that there was anything wrong with Yun Duo, a little girl, saying this. They believed that Yun Duo should be like this. She was able to lead everyone here alive from so many killers, and could lead everyone to solve all difficulties. Their task was to follow the arrangements. As long as they were obedient and did not betray Xiangyun Village, they could all eat meat with the Yun family.
