Chapter 519: A wooden plough that primitive people can't stand it
Han Cheng found the first carpenter of the Qingque tribe, Lame, and began to tell Lame about his idea of the Quyuan plow.
Of course, the so-called Quyuan plough in Han Cheng's mouth is not the kind of Quyuan plough that was common in later generations.
Not to mention the rest, the mere fact that the ploughshare and the wall of the ploughshare, made of iron, were enough to discourage him.
What he called the 'curved plow' was an outrageous object.
In short, the rough structure is a Y-shaped branch that has been put down.
The upper branch is long, the lower branch is short, the long branch is used to hang a rope for the deer to pull, and the short branch below is as sharp as possible to rest into a more sharp shape, becoming a strong existence that integrates ploughshares and ploughshares.
The latter handle is used to hold and control the plow.
Such a plough made of all wood can be said to be very simple.
Limp looked at the object on the ground, and couldn't help but learn from the Son of God, and sniffled.
Miko hadn't asked him to create new objects for a long time, and today it finally came, which made the more and more mature carpenter very excited, and he felt a little itchy for not creating new things for a long time.
The product of the Son of God must be a fine product, which is a truth that is widely spread in the Qingque tribe and is extremely approved by everyone.
As the carpenter with the highest skill in the Qingque tribe, and a character who has made a variety of cross-era tools under the guidance of Miko, Lame agrees with this sentence far more deeply than ordinary people.
And Miko's introduction of this new appliance also confirmed the conjecture in the lame heart.
Animal power can be used to plough the field, greatly improve the efficiency of farming, make people become labor-saving, and the cultivated area can also be greatly expanded.
As soon as I heard this introduction, I knew that this precious tool was extremely precious, at least at the same level as the car.
The limp suddenly came to his senses, rolled up his sleeves, brought his tools, and was ready to fight continuously to overcome many difficulties, and then make the plow when he was exhausted.
However, the results ......
The result is nothing short of eye-popping.
From Miko finding him, to explaining construction, finding materials, and making tools...... All of this adds up to a day of uselessness.
And this divine tool that the Son of God said was completely beyond his imagination......
This...... That's too basic, isn't it?
Looking at the ground this is completely after cutting off a branch, the thing that has been made after resting, and the sleeves have not been put down yet, and I don't know how to express my feelings for a while.
"What's the matter, it's just a red light, give me the whole blood boiling!"
I don't know how many years later, in a movie, the taxi driver who has watched too many police movies said what he was lame at this time.
You don't have to make such a fuss about such a thing, right?
Spit is complaining, but the tools made cannot but experiment.
So under the leadership of the great Han Shenzi, he limped the plow, which was so simple that primitive people couldn't stand it, followed Shenzi to the deer pen, and brought the head deer that was going to be used as a coolie, and walked towards the outside of the tribe.
In the fields surrounding the tribe, there are many people who are busy with the land.
Most of the slaves were responsible for the more laborious clearing of the wasteland, and the old men of the Qingque tribe mostly toiled on the land that had been reclaimed.
Compared with clearing the land, ploughing the land that has already been planted with grain is much lighter.
The Qingque tribe now has more than 1,000 acres of land, and even if the number of people has increased, it is not easy to complete the reclamation of these lands in a short period of time.
Up to now, there is only one-eighth of the land that has been plowed down.
Han Cheng and Lame came to the field very close to the tribe,
How to plough the field with a plow, such a thing lame does not know, so the matter of plowing the land with such a simple and outrageous wooden plow can only fall to Han Cheng, a well-informed divine son.
Because deer have been used to sow seeds and harrow the ground before, there is no shortage of things like 'deer traps' in the Qingque tribe.
The deer sheath made of rope and leather was fastened to the deer uncle, and the wooden hook behind the deer cover was hooked in front of the wooden plough and on the rope loop that had been worn after the drilling.
Han Cheng hunched his back slightly, his hands firmly gripping the handle of the wooden plow.
"Hah!"
After an order was issued, after a long period of work, Uncle Lu, who had formed a conditioned reflex for this, stepped forward with his hooves.
The plough followed, but not to good effect.
Because the wooden plough was too light and the plough made of pure wood was not sharp enough, the plough only entered the shallow layer of the earth.
After walking a distance, Han Cheng's arms had to press the handle of the plough hard, and finally the weight of his entire body was pressed on the handle of the plow.
With such strength, the plough with an oblique mouth below, under the traction of Uncle Deer, finally fell into the deeper ground, and the depth of the plough was similar to that dug out by a person with a bone shovel.
The limp who followed behind looked at the ditch that had been reclaimed and the soil that had been turned up, his eyes widened, such a tool could really be used to turn the ground?
And it seems that the speed is really much faster than that of a person turning over with a bone shovel.
Unlike the lame surprise, Han Cheng, who had been pressing the wooden plow forward for a while, gradually frowned.
Ploughing the land with such a wooden plough is too laborious.
You have to press the handle of the plough almost all the time.
Moreover, this kind of wooden plough without an arc-shaped plough wall is turned up, and the soil is turned up in both directions.
Unlike the ploughs of later generations, when the plough passed, the soil that was turned up ran to the side, and most of it was still buckled.
In this way, the turned soil is not conducive to receiving the sun.
At the same time, the soil will also cover the land that has not been plowed, which is not conducive to the operation of the next plow, and it is easy to miss the land.
Ploughing the ground with this kind of plough is not only tired of people, but also of the deer pulling the wooden plow.
It didn't take long to plow, and Uncle Deer's slender legs, who were pulling the plow in front, trembled a little.
And Uncle Deer is still the strongest and most powerful of all the deer.
If you come with another deer, you are afraid that the plough will go a little deeper into the earth, and you will walk on the spot.
Such a wooden plough, if it is pulled by a large man such as an ox, a horse, or a mule, it is almost the same, and it is really difficult for a deer to let the deer master pull it.
After plowing like this for a while, looking at the deer uncle who was trembling with four legs in front of him, Han Cheng, who was also tired, finally stopped farming.
It seems that at this time, ploughing the land is still not possible.
Judging from the current conditions, there are basically only two ways out if you want to plow with animal power.
One is to find metal ores, smelt a large amount of metal, and use metal to make ploughshares and plough walls to create a true sense of the curved plow.
Or find large animals such as oxen, horses, and donkeys, and use them to pull plows.
If one of these two conditions is met, ploughing can be realized.
Of course, it would be great if both could be satisfied.
But for now, these two things feel distant when you think about it.
If only the rhinoceros of the Teng Snake tribe hadn't been killed, such a giant existence would be more than enough to pull a wooden plow.
No matter how blunt the plow is, with such a large animal, it can be pulled to the air.
It's just a pity that the guy is dead......
It doesn't seem that it is impossible to plough the land with a deer pulling a wooden plow!
Han Cheng, who was sitting there and worried for a while, suddenly stood up......
