"This thing is amazing!"

The movement here attracted the curiosity of the craftsmen, and many people were shocked when they looked at the large turntable.

Although he knew that the water flow and wind flow could be turned into a power source, he never thought that boiling water could also be driven to make this large turntable work.

As the saying goes, "the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway", some craftsmen showed a solemn look at the "merry-go-round" and began to think subversively.

In fact, many revolutionary things are not difficult to create, but what is missing is often the "apple that smashes the head", which makes their thinking change.

Like Jenny's spinning machine, it's just the idea that it can turn a horizontal spindle into an upright one. The next day he built a new spinning machine that used one spinning wheel to drive eight vertical spindles, and the production efficiency increased eightfold at once.

Lin Haoran rode the dog and asked the tiger girl, "Tiger girl, do you like it?" ”

"I like it! Brother, you're so good at making such a fun thing! The tiger girl's face was red, her eyes were bright, and she sincerely admired.

Lin Haoran is not surprised by this answer, in later generations, many children are obsessed with the merry-go-round, according to the playful nature of the tiger girl, how can they not like it?

"Dumb, second gear!"

Lin Haoran snapped his fingers and commanded a wooden middle-aged man who was in charge of control.

This middle-aged man from Mu Ne was originally a Lang Zhong of the Ministry of Works, but he was too upright and offended Yan Shifan during the construction of the project, so he was exiled to the border of this Leizhou Mansion.

It's just that with his exquisite skills, he was recommended by the health office, and now he has become an ordinary craftsman in the Leizhou Craftsman Academy, and this "merry-go-round" was built by him.

However, when he pulled hard, the sound of the steam-powered equipment became significantly louder, and the turntable was also accelerated.

Cluck......

The tiger girl felt the speed increase, and couldn't help but laugh heartily, and her beautiful big eyes were bright. It was only a moment, and she said loudly to Lin Haoran: "Brother, can you hurry up?" I still want to hurry!"

"It's already the fastest!" Lin Haoran looked at this wild girl who was not afraid of heaven and earth, but she was quite speechless.

Tiger Girl was not too disappointed, she opened her arms happily, felt the sound of the wind blowing in her ears, liked the feeling of galloping, and hoped that it would spin forever.

Under the influence of the tiger girl, the children who were previously afraid also changed their stance and chose to try, and soon became obsessed with this magical "big toy" and experienced the "big spin" that they had never experienced before.

This "merry-go-round" completely captured the hearts of these children, but unfortunately, the winter sky was dark early, and they could only reluctantly leave.

However, the happiness of the tiger girl did not end, and the troupe of the City God Temple did their best, attracting a large number of fans to watch. The official lanterns and fireworks have become a major attraction, which not only feasts the eyes of the tiger girl, but also adds endless joy to the people of the entire Leizhou City.

The sixth day of December is an ordinary day, but this year it seems extraordinary, as if it was a small festival.

Another consequence of the Tiger Girl's birthday banquet is that the Tiger Girl directly became a little rich girl.

The gold and silver hairpins that were reluctant to buy before, now hold a large handful in their hands, those jewels can be used as marbles, and all kinds of ornaments stuff the home with nowhere to stuff, and those antique calligraphy and paintings can only be pressed to the bottom of the box.

In particular, Mrs. Jiang gave Hu Niu a special carriage, which was quite average on the outside, but it was very luxuriously furnished inside, and it was said that it was worth thousands of taels.

As we entered December, it seemed that the day had been added to the steam motive device, and in the blink of an eye it was time to deliver to Mr. Simon.

50,000 horses of Leizhou cloth were delivered at the newly built Leizhou wharf port, but Mr. Simon had to pay taxes to the Guangdong City Shipping Division in addition to paying off the final payment, and his depression at that time can be imagined.

It's just that no matter what, Leizhou's opening of the sea can be regarded as an extremely important step.

Influenced by the best-selling overseas of Leizhou cloth, it also led to the export of porcelain, lacquerware, iron pots, tea, silk and other commodities in Leizhou City, and a large number of goods were sold from Leizhou Wharf to Nanyang countries.

It is worth mentioning that under the influence of the wars of the past dynasties, many Chinese people fled to the Nanyang countries. Now looking at the opening of the Leizhou wharf, those expatriates who have gained a foothold in the Nanyang countries are also sending ships one after another.

At the same time, the previously failed workshops in Leizhou City are now sought after by many merchants, and the prices of these workshops are rising again and again.

More and more businessmen choose to do business in Leizhou City, or even stay at home here. In the same way, the housing prices in Leizhou City have doubled, and the land prices have also risen.

This is not entirely a bad thing, the outer city, which was previously unappreciated, has been affected by the appreciation of the land, and now it has entered a period of accelerated construction, with workshops and private houses quietly erecting.

Lin Haoran, the prefect of Leizhou, is also very busy, but with the continuous influx of foreign population, it has bred a lot of problems.

For example, the case of Deng Feilong enslaving children and begging is not an isolated case, some lawbreakers poured into Leizhou City, seeking personal interests through various means, resulting in an increase in illegal cases.

It is in this kind of busy work that the 37th year of Jiajing has come to an end, and the Spring Festival with Chinese characteristics has quietly arrived.

According to the holiday system of Ming officials, there are five days off on New Year's Day, that is, from the first day of the first month to the fifth day of the first month. It's just that the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve happens to be Mu Mu Day, so they can take six days off together.

For the vast majority of officials, the six-day holiday is not allowed to go home for the New Year. Especially in this era of underdeveloped transportation, it takes several months to go to the capital from Guangdong to take the exam, and this holiday is not enough for them to go out of Beijing.

It's just that Lin Haoran is a special case, his hometown is in Shicheng County, which is adjacent to Leizhou Capital, and the distance between the two is less than 100 miles. If you ride a fast horse, you can return home in one day.

Lin Haoran, as the official of the seal, while enjoying supreme power, was also put on an invisible shackle and could not easily leave Leizhou Mansion. And now, he can finally open the shackles and return to Changlin Village generously, which can be regarded as a return to his hometown.

On the afternoon of the twenty-ninth day of the year, after dealing with the official affairs of the government, Lin Haoran left the Leizhou government with the tiger girl who was like an arrow and many items. The group walked out of the Chaotian Gate of Leizhou City and embarked on a journey back to their hometown.

In order to rush back to worship his ancestors and have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, he also had to leave for Suixi County overnight, striving to return to Changlin Village tomorrow afternoon.
