Chapter 307: Shasha has something to do (2)

Dong Qi was holding the plow and driving the cattle and ploughing in the fields.

The plows in the Han Dynasty were mostly dominated by long straight plows. They were not flexible enough when turning back and turning, and it was a bit inconvenient to lift soil.

However, for the entire era, the long straight plow is an excellent farming tool.

Since the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, plowing oxen appeared, which played a very important role in plowing. However, not every household can afford to raise plowing oxen, and it is only gathered in the hands of a few people. If there is a plowing ox, it is a great thing in the countryside. In some places, some people can even accumulate a lot of wealth by plowing oxen.

There are few plowing cattle in the Central Plains, but for Zhangye, it seems that it is no longer a big problem.

Large areas of pastures, large numbers of nomadic Qiang people...

After Dong Qi moved to the Han people from the Central Plains, it was not very difficult to buy plowing ox from the Qiang people.

Speaking of which, Huang Shao has made great contributions.

In the early days, in order to attract the influx of Han people, a family was given a measure to plow a ox for a while.

As the Han people increased, the area continued to expand to the west, resulting in a large number of fertile land, which further encouraged Huang Shao to vigorously develop animal husbandry. Anyway, the land occupied was all Dong Qi's property. Huang Shao planned several fertile pastures to absorb displaced Qiang people to come to shepherd cattle and horses, which further promoted the sinicization of the Qiang people and the Di people.

Horses with pure blood are used as war horses.

The second-class horse is sold as a commodity.

Now there are tens of thousands of good horses under Dong Qi's name, which is enough to equip an elite cavalry.

Shamoko was shocked when he saw Dong Qi.

He never expected that his second brother would come to farm. Moreover, around the fields, Pu Yuan, Ma Jun, Feiwo and others gathered as generals, and a group of secretaries kept recording the various problems described by the three people.

Ren Hongchang and Dong Lu sat in the warm tent where they were temporarily raising arrows by the ridge.

The two children were lying on the warm tiger-skin blanket and pinched me, and I pushed you and giggled, having fun.

One of them was Dong Shuo, and the other child was almost the same as Dong Shuo, with dark skin. He was just arched down by Dong Shuo and was sitting on the mat. He didn't know what he wanted to express, but after a moment he got up and was with Dong Shuo. His posture seemed to be saying: I don't believe it, I will not be able to beat you guy.

This little guy is named Dong You (you, four tones), and he is the son of Dong Qi and Ren Hongchang.

Yu, there is an explanation in "Guangya", which means forgiveness and forgiveness. This name is not given by Dong Qi. According to Dong Qi's temperament, if someone punches me, I will return it sooner or later. Forgiveness? It is for friends, not for everyone.

Speaking of Dong You, this birth is really bumpy.

After the Linjing Rebellion, Dian Wei covered Cai Yan and others to retreat to Shuofang. As the military general among the female family members, the former chief general of the Luanwei Camp, when Li Xin was killed and panic, he not only took over the Luanwei Camp, but also took on the heavy responsibility of guarding him.

If you want to fight, Ren Hongchang did not have the tragic battle as fierce as Dian Weishamoke.

But along the way, he had a big belly, and on the one hand, he had to appease Cai Yan and others' panic, and on the other hand, he had to be alert to the things around him. The task was really not light. After passing the big city blockade, children in the belly were born in a crisis on all sides.

In addition, Dong Qi is unclear about his life and death, and Ren Hongchang's hatred can be imagined.

Lu Zhi named the child Dong You, hoping that the child would learn to forgive, and Ren Hongchang would also learn to forgive.

Later, Dong Qi came back and could not do anything about it. He had already thought of a name for his son, Dong Ping.

pity……

The word "ping" is cheaper for Dian Wei's youngest son, and also named Shamoke's son Qiu (chou, second tone). There is an enemy in "Records of the Grand Historian - Family of Jin", which is also Qiu. It means to remind the child not to forget the hatred today.

Shamoke jumped off Danxi, and as soon as he walked over, he saw Liu Bin, carrying Xiao Wenji and Dong Ji, running over from the side with sweat.

"So smelly, so smelly!"

Liu Bin covered his nose and said loudly: "Dong Qing made such a cesspool, which is so stinking. He will pour it in the fields in the future. Can the food that comes out really be eaten? Anyway, I don't eat it, so I feel disgusting when I think about it."

"Uncle San, Uncle San..."

When Xiao Wenji saw Shamoko, she ran over and opened her little hand.

Shamoke grinned, squatted down and picked up Wen Ji with one hand and Dong Ji with the other, "What were you talking about just now?"

"Dad and Uncle Fei told me that I would make a piece of land in spring and say that I would pour some fertilizer. We went to see it just now, but the fertilizer my father mentioned was... so disgusting. Can such things be eaten when poured into the fields?"

Shamoko said in surprise: "What kind of fertilizer did the second brother make?"

The Dong family lay in Shamoke's ear and whispered: "Uncle San, it's just feces!"

Shamoko couldn't help but be stunned...

To be honest, Shamoko really doesn't understand Dong Qi's idea. Sometimes, this second brother always likes to make some weird things, and the effect is often very good. For example, the stirrups and horseshoes he made earlier have increased by at least 30% after the entire army became popular.

Mo underestimates these 30%. On the battlefield, 30% represents the chance of survival.

Also, the Sinan crafted by Dong Qi has simplified the process much, and the volume has also become very small.

It is said that the thing was made by my second brother in Nanshan, and under the improvement of Ma Jun and Pu Yuan, it has started mass production. Shamoke lived in the mountains since he was a child, so he naturally knew how much use such a gadget could produce.

But water it into the fields...

What else do you want to tinker with?

Liu Bian is already sixteen years old and looks much more steady than before.

After a disaster in Linjing, Liu Bian changed a lot. He still had a hint of cowardice in his temperament, or explained with magnanimity, which might be more appropriate. However, he had more decisiveness in handling things. He learned one thing, that is, unconditional trust in Dong Qi. In his heart, Liu Bian believed that as long as Dong Qing was there, all problems would not be a problem.

After arriving in Zhangye, Empress Dowager He had a serious conversation with Liu Bian.

"Wang'er, what do you think of Dong Qing?"

"Dong Qing...is a good person."

"Wang'er, the Ai family wants you to remember that no matter when and where, you must unconditionally believe Dong Qing. Dong Qing looks vicious, but he is extremely loyal in his heart. Do you still remember what you said back then? If you don't let him down, he will not let you down for life... The world's chaos has begun, and the Han Dynasty is in name only. One day, Dong Qing will help you ascend the throne again. At that time, a large number of people will gather around you, and there will be no treacherous villains here, slandering him for the sake of power and profit... What should you do?"

Liu Bin was stunned, "I..."

"You are gentle but your ears are soft. In the future, Dong Qing will always take the opportunity to slander... Wang'er, you must remember and believe Dong Qing. Only in this way, my Han Dynasty may have a day of revival, so don't be blinded by villains."

"Boy has written it down!"

Liu Bian started studying harder from that day on.

At the same time, he believed even more that as long as Dong Chu was there, the Han Dynasty would be able to be restored.

It is precisely because of this reason that he often follows Dong Qi. But this time, Liu Bian couldn't accept it.

After seeing Liu Bian, Shamoke walked into the warm tent.

"Sister-in-law!"

After Ren Hongchang gave birth to a child, he did not appear to be bloated because of this. On the contrary, after Keats's order, he became more beautiful.

Seeing Shamoke come in, Ren Hongchang smiled and said, "Why are the third uncle interested?"

"What are the second brother doing?"

"Oh, he found that the plow used for the cultivated land was not very proud a few days ago, so he transformed it with Deheng and others. Now, as soon as the first part was created, he hurriedly called us over to watch it and had to operate it myself."

As he spoke, Ren Hongchang seemed to remember something, "Sister, my husband seems to be very skilled in this trick... Could it be that he had cultivated land before?"

Dong Lu shook his head in surprise, "When he was in the ranch, he had only practiced martial arts and studied every day, but he had never seen him do such farm work. Hehe, but sometimes my husband is quite strange. Maybe he had done this job in his previous life."

This was originally a joke, but it was revealed the truth.

Although Dong Qi was a forest ranger in his previous life, he was not unfamiliar with crops.

He had no idea before, but when he came to Zhangye and calmed down to observe the scenery here, he discovered something.

In my memory of the previous life, the mountain village still maintained a relatively traditional farming habit due to various factors such as roads.

For example, this plow, the plow in Dong Qi's memory, is completely different from the plow he saw.

In this regard, Fewer can be regarded as an expert. After explaining the structure of the plow, Dong Qi drew a sketch of plowing plows in later generations according to his memory. The biggest change was to adapt the straight shaft and long shaft that had the plow first into curved shafts and short shafts. At the same time, an automatic rotating plow plate was installed on the head of the shaft, making the plow frame smaller and lighter, and also facilitate turning and turning. It is flexible, convenient to operate, and save a lot of manpower and animal power, which is very practical.

Of course, most of this was studied by Ma Junfeiwo and Gan Xin, and Dong Qi was just an idea.

But this idea made the Quyuan Plough, which should have appeared in the Tang Dynasty, appear in advance in the Jiangdong Plough.

This first part of the curved plow was named Xiping plow by Gan Xin.

As Dong Qi, who had operated the curved plow in his previous life, he naturally had a lot of say about the emergence of the Xiping plow.

After doing it personally, Dong Qi walked up the ridge of the field with a smile on his body.

"Zaicheng, it seems that it's still a little uncomfortable."

When Favor Majun Puyuan and the other two heard this, they asked quickly: "Master, what's wrong with it?"

"It seems that something is missing... For example, the plowshare is hard to control and control direction. In addition, there are also requirements for deep and shallow ploughing. If you can mediate it, you can plough it carefully."

"this……"

The concept proposed by Dong Qi is really beyond the understanding of the three.

No wonder, from the appearance of this curved plow until Dong Qi's previous life, it has been more than a thousand years, and the subtle improvements to the curved plow have never been interrupted. However, the shape of this curved plow has not changed significantly.

According to the memory of the previous life, Dong Qi asked for the newly developed new objects, which was naturally not satisfied.

But for Ma Jun and the other two, this has done its best. If you want to make any changes, further practice is required.

Dong Qi also didn't understand the principle.

It's like driving a car. If you can drive, you may not be able to repair a car.

But he also knew that it was unlikely to perfect the Xiping plow at once.
