Chapter 107: Flap your wings

It's good to have brainless fans, at least Shi Wei followed behind and laughed: "Brother Xiaoyou, I believe in you!" Although copper basins are better looking than lead screws! ”

Su Youle said: "Forget it, don't talk about that, how about the chickens and ducks?" ”

Shi Wei nodded happily: "It's good, the third sister-in-law has brought people to hatch the second batch, this time there are a lot of hatches, there are hundreds of chickens and ducks." Brother Xiaoyou, you don't like chicks and ducklings? ”

Su You smiled: "I like it, but I can't stand the smell of ducklings, so I have to wait until I invent the pig-nosed mask before going in." ”

In addition to studying, he drew mechanical drawings, marked down the classic mechanical structures in his memory, and wrote a manual of "Fastener Bolts, Screws, Studs and Nut Size Codes and Labels".

As for the steel ball and spring standards, he didn't bother to care, and with a standard writing demonstration, the rest of the Freestone family father and son determined it on their own based on experience.

Just kidding, seeing that the New Year is coming, it's time to rest after being busy for so long.

The fertile fields on the periphery of the swamp have been fenced off, and the county magistrate is very satisfied, three circles of fertile fields, the next circle of thirty acres, the second circle of sixty acres, and the third circle of one hundred and twenty acres!

More than 200 acres, not much, but all the fields, swamp fertilizer mud collected into flat-bottomed boats, and then passed through equidistant spiral cylinders, layer by layer to the upper layer, in the continuation of shallow water, waiting for the next spring to start sowing.

As a result, a number of mud ditches were opened in the swamp to increase the depth, and Su You built the water outlet into a gate, using stone slabs as box gates, and put them down piece by piece to intercept part of the water source.

Next year's plan is to raise fish in the ditch, plant aquatic economic plants on the ditch, and build a duck shed to raise geese and ducks, which will become a three-dimensional small agricultural demonstration site.

Further up the barren mountain, there will be a low ladder to plant tea trees, dipterocarp, which has become an important source of income for the Su family.

Su You is quite rich now, iron mill, porcelain workshop, three percent per month, that is, hundreds of income, their own wine shop is still sporadic shipments, nearly 100 per month, more than 300 catties of red bronze, has become more than 400 catties of exquisite yellow and white copper inlaid bronze, as well as sealed kettles with threaded rings, wine jugs. The first batch of distributions earned more than 300 yuan, which can be called a money grab.

The bronze ware is a test product, and after the test is successful, the eyes of the ancestors and grandchildren of the Shi family are red, and they must make a machine to make copper skin with Su oil.

With lathes and size standards, precision workpieces are possible, and cold rolling mills are actually not difficult.

Three waterwheels act as a power source, and the power is transmitted through a large gearbox to drive a large gadolinium roller to roll.

The lower side is also a large gadolinium roller, which moves tangentially to the upper shaft through the gear, and the gap between the gadolinium rollers can be adjusted by the lead screw.

This thing is very useful, and with a little modification, it can also be made into a plate bending machine, a roller crusher.

The red-hot copper parts are beaten by a forging machine to become sheets, and then rolled again and again with different thicknesses, becoming thinner and thinner, and finally becoming a suitable copper skin.

There are different types of upper and lower rolls, those with hobs, which can slice materials, and those with semicircular notches, which can roll square strips into thin cylinders, which are actually wire rods.

When the wire rod gradually becomes thinner and can be pulled through the round hole steel plate by a large brushed disc with a ratchet, the process of the cold drawing machine is formed accordingly.

This method can be used to obtain cold-drawn wires. In addition to the production of copper wire for inlay, it can also obtain cold-drawn low-carbon iron wire, put it into the carburizing box for carburizing, and the corresponding heat treatment normalizing process, and can also obtain steel wires with different hardness and ductility.

The metal obtained by hot rolling has high strength and poor ductility, while the metal normalized after cold rolling has greatly improved ductility and has different uses.

With iron wire and stamping presses, the production of iron nails is a smooth thing again.

First, the iron wire is clamped with a long iron square with a round groove, leaving only a little margin outside, you can use horizontal stamping to punch out the nail head, cut it out in the release section, send it to grind out the nail tip with a grinding wheel, and two or three people cooperate to form an assembly line, which is called a fast.

Every small technological advancement brings a wide variety of products.

Su You often looks at writing a lot of by-products, but in fact, people just want to make a more accurate mother bed......

Nowadays, the iron material is still very expensive, and every time the processing is completed, Shifu has to recycle the scraps of iron filings and re-smelt them.

Now that the furnace temperature and isolation metallurgy have been solved, the carbon content in the molten iron can be controlled to a precise degree, and the carbon can be oxidized by a simple hot air blow.

In front of the two classrooms, there is an additional playground, and a circle on the side is set up with horizontal bars, parallel bars, stone locks, barbells, rope ladders......

I'm sorry to talk about this, the children of the Land Temple are all working and studying at the same time, not to mention the few big brothers who tied up Zhang Zao, they have begun to grow tendons and meat, and even Su Xiaomei's strength is greater than him, and this circle of equipment is all purchased for himself by being ashamed and brave.

There is also a weapon rack under the eaves, on which are inserted small whistle sticks, small red tassel guns, small bows, small rattan cards, short swords, short knives...... Those are Shi Wei's guys.

Shi Wei was naturally active, she pulled Su You up every morning, and the two went to the playground to practice, but Su You was too lazy and stupid, and there were many things.

Today is like this again, Su You practiced and practiced, so he touched the stone lock by the sand pit in the playground, not to practice, but to sit on it and rest for a while.

Shi Wei kicked the stone lock away with one leg, Su You said "ouch", and sat down in the sand: "Wei'er, you dare to kick the stone, don't use your toes!" ”

Shi Wei crossed her hands on her hips: "This is a kick, not a kick!" Brother Xiaoyou! You want to be lazy again! ”

Su You waved his hand: "No, no, no, if you don't take a breath, Brother Xiaoyou will be finished......"

Bagong came out, saw Su You's lazy appearance, and beckoned to Shi Wei: "Wei'er come here." ”

Shi Wei walked over: "Eight mornings!" ”

Bagong turned around and took down the shiny yellow wattle stick from the front of the ancestral hall: "Hehehe, this kid is too lazy, this is for you, if he dares to be disobedient, you will enforce the law on behalf of Bagong!" ”

Su You jumped up and ran: "You don't want to be the eighth prince!" You're eccentric! ”

Hachiko scolded: "You are lazy in the dragon!" Wei'er practices martial arts every day, rain or shine, I see you are touching the fish when you turn a book, so if you go on like this, you have to go! ”

Su You turned around far from the opposite side of the playground: "I am making reasonable use of fragmented time!" My homework and sister-in-law are all boastful! Forget it, I won't tell you, I'll go to the third sister-in-law and fifth sister-in-law to teach them how to make sprouts and mustard! ”

Later sprouts, mustard, and kohlrabi are all famous side dishes and condiments in the southern Sichuan generation.

They are all made of mustard greens, but the mustard that makes sprouts is called Erping pile, the mustard that makes mustard is called goose public bag, and the mustard that makes kohlrabi, uh, is called kohlrabi.

In the past, the practice of Kelongli was to wind the mustard greens to a half-dry and keep them to eat slowly, but now Su You can take care of things, and the first thing is to guide the villagers to do this.

Depending on how old and tender the dish is, the most tender method is mustard, followed by sprouts, and finally kohlrabi.

Now is a good season to make these things, the tender stems of the two flat piles are divided into silk as wide as chopsticks, dried to 13 catties per 100 catties, and placed in the barrel to sprinkle salt and tighten the pickling; In addition, boil the brown sugar sugar solution to the extent of provoking into silk, which is called leaky sugar. Mix the leaky sugar with the pickled vegetable strips while shaking, add spice powder, and then put it in a jar and tie it tightly with salted vegetable leaves, and seal it tightly with grass petals.

Mustard should be hung with less fiber, crisp and tender meat, peel off the old skin at the base, and tear off the hard tendons. Cut the head of the cabbage into two or three pieces, so that the size of the pieces is almost even. Then wear it on a skewer and dry it, which is called "wind dehydration".

After dehydration, it is salted twice, the first time the air-dried vegetable pieces are added with salt, mixed well, kneaded, and layered into the pool and pressed. When a large amount of vegetable juice seeps out, wash the vegetable cubes with vegetable juice and drain them. Add table salt and salte a second time.

After that, the vegetable pieces are put into a sack, pressed on a stone slab, tied with a wooden pole, and the water is squeezed out, from which the name of the mustard comes from.

With the lead screw, Su You went directly to the press, and the third and fifth sisters-in-law pushed the long pole to rotate in circles, and the threads slowly sent the iron pieces downward, resisting the pressure generated by the wooden board, and the vegetable juice in the burlap bag under the wooden board soon seeped out from the surroundings.

The fifth sister-in-law shouted while pushing: "This thing is so easy to use!" What else do you need a man to do with it?! ”

The third sister-in-law snickered at this answer: "The man keeps it for his own use!" ”

After squeezing the vegetable pieces, add salt, pepper and spice powder, mix well and then put it into the jar, compact, fill it layer by layer, sprinkle a layer of salt and spice mixture on the mouth of the altar, seal the mouth of the altar tightly, and keep it in a dry place.

Kohlrabi is generally processed by the processes of material selection, initial drying, mixing, re-drying, feeding, sealing and pickling, and the processed kohlrabi is only about 40% of the original weight. The longer you store it, the better it tastes.

The three pickles are almost the same, but they are all shelf-stable and have unique and different flavors.

can be eaten raw, among which the sprouts can also be made into roasted white and filling; mustard to make soup and stir-fry; In addition to stir-frying, cold salad, kohlrabi can also be made into braised pork, which are very famous dishes.

There are actually many deep meanings behind the large-scale production of these dishes, and it is the same as copperware.

The development of the imperial court for a hundred years has actually formed a certain obstacle to commercial circulation, and people of insight have realized this, but there is no better way to change it—or it is conservative and inflexible, or because of the great interests, there are many resistances.

Su You wants to use soy sauce, pickles, imported copperware, and fine wine, to take advantage of the current special zone of the four roads, and test it first, to see if there is a better way to impact the salt administration, copper administration, and cupbearery, at least to improve the economic environment in a small area.

Little by little, the ants gnawed on the elephants, and finally forced fiscal and tax reform with a rich supply of goods, a huge demand for money, and high tax revenues.

This is the fundamental purpose of so many things that he is so anxious to do!

Of course, the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, the wind rises at the end of Qingping, and everything must be carefully tried.

Now he is like a little fly, hiding in the small pond of Meishan City, hiding under the protection of several major families, while reading poetry and books, he does not prevent him from pondering this seemingly well-thought-out net, and secretly flapping his tender and small wings when he has nothing to do.
