Chapter 398: More flexible, less effort, and less time
Seeing that there were so many people here, and there were also curious people who gathered around, and there were no oxen to plough the fields, everyone was waiting. They were very surprised to see that the oxen ploughed the field so fast, they were all old farmers who had been plowing the fields all their lives, and they quickly understood the benefits of this new plow, where they were discussed, and some of them had itchy hands and couldn't bear to go down and try it for themselves. When he came up, he said loudly, "This new plow is more labor-saving, and it is good to turn!" β
ββ"Yes, you see that ox is carrying a plow on its back, and it is not at all difficult."
ββ"Really, if it's all at this speed, I'll have to plough a lot of fields in one day!"
ββ"Wow, ploughing more than a dozen acres a day, won't it be my family's turn soon?"
ββSeeing this prospect, everyone became excited. Li Dongsheng saw that many people had tried it, so he shouted, "I brought dozens of new plows today, everyone take them and try them to see how the effect is?" β
ββAfter saying that, it was a pity that a group of people gathered around to watch, and no one came up to collect it. Daniel Zhang was at a loss for where to stand holding a plow. Li Chunfeng is an old Jianghu, and he smiled when he saw it, "You guys go up and get it, you don't need money!" β
ββ"Don't want money?"
ββ"Give me one!"
ββ"Don't rob, leave one for me."
ββ"I want it too!"
ββA circle of people immediately surrounded Daniel Zhang, and the one who grabbed it happily carried the new plow back to his home field to try it, and his heart was happy to make a lot of money today, a new plow, it is still so good-looking, and it is easy to use.
ββThe heart that didn't grab it is dripping blood, don't look at it as a plow, how many people don't have this, it's still given away for nothing, and it's a loss! I originally wanted to make trouble, but seeing Daniel Zhang's figure, I wisely dismissed this year.
ββLi Dongsheng smiled and watched the villagers grab things and scatter, Li Chunfeng also smiled and said, "The villagers are simple, and this matter will be a beautiful talk in the future." β
ββ"There is simplicity, and there is a lot of cunning! I didn't even thank you for grabbing something, for fear that I would have to go back! Li Dongsheng replied, "You can't run away if you love to be greedy and cheap!" β
ββ"You're always a lover of telling the truth. Ha ha! β
ββTwo people spent half a day in the village to observe the effect of this new plough. With this, the speed of cultivating the land in the whole village has increased by more than two times. This hot scene attracted the local Lizheng capital. After seeing the effect, he begged Li Dongsheng to sell them a few more.
ββThe climax of the scene appeared on a teenager with an impatient temperament. He grabbed the new plough but did not plough the ox, he couldn't wait, he hung the rope of the curved plough on his shoulder, leaned forward, pulled one end of the rope hard, and then let the family hold the plow, and shouted, he actually used people to plow the field.
ββEveryone was stunned by his approach, since ancient times, only people hoe the fields, where are people plowing the fields. Today it seems to be all about the effect of this new plow. Li Zheng burst into tears with excitement, "It's really a godsend, my life as a farmer in Datang is guaranteed." β
ββMany people surrounded Li Dongsheng and Li Chunfeng and thanked them. At this time, someone remembered, "This lord has sent us such a treasure, and I don't know your name yet?" β
ββLi Chunfeng said with a smile, "This is the famous Xiao Li Tanhua in Chang'an, I passed here a few days ago and saw that your cultivation is difficult, so."

I made this new plough to solve your urgent needs. β
ββWhen everyone heard that it was Xiao Li Tanhua, they were all excited and couldn't help themselves, such a famous person actually made a new plow for us and helped us do farm work, which was so valuable. Li Dongsheng looked at their heartfelt smiles, and returned the salute again and again, and then returned to Chang'an.
ββ"Why is there so little rain this year?" Li Shimin and his eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling were worried in the political hall.
ββ"This weather matter is arranged by God, and we can't help it?" The eldest grandson Wuji twisted his beard, "Why don't we go and ask for rain?" β
ββ"Lord Eldest Sun, this is not right. We are readers, how can we believe in those things that are gods and ghosts. Fang Xuanling doesn't like to listen to it, "Your Majesty, don't, there will be impeachment in the imperial history at that time." β
ββLi Shimin nodded: "What should I do then?" All localities have handed over the concerts, and there is little rain in all parts of the country, and the progress of spring plowing has slowed down a lot. Sad! β
ββAt this time, Wang De walked in with a happy face, "Your Majesty, I am very happy." Master Li Chunfeng said that he had a way to solve the matter of spring ploughing. β
ββ"Really?" All three of them stood up, "Please!" β
ββLi Chunfeng also walked in with a spring breeze, "Your Majesty, Weichen has congratulated you." β
ββHurry up and let Li Chunfeng sit down, Fang Xuanling is also in a hurry, "Li Taishi, how to solve the matter of spring ploughing?" β
ββLi Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji were also waiting for his answer. Li Chunfeng said, "The day before yesterday, after going to the ceremony with His Majesty, when Weichen and Li Dongsheng returned to the city, they found that the villagers were worried about spring ploughing. The ploughing cattle of the government couldn't keep up, and then Li Dongsheng went back to make a new plow, and went to the village to use it today, and the effect was extraordinary, so he came to report the good news to His Majesty! β
ββSeveral people are the top people in the world, of course, they will not be excited by Li Chunfeng's words, the eldest grandson Wuji hates to hear the name Li Dongsheng the most, squints his eyes and says, "The effect is extraordinary, isn't this word a bit too much?" β
ββLi Shimin was also suspicious: "You said he made a new plow in two days?" This plough has been used for hundreds of thousands of years, and he said to change it? β
ββBut Fang Xuanling is really "How big is this plow?" Multiple? What is better than the straight plough used now, and how many fields can be ploughed in a day? β
ββLi Chunfeng was also excited, he was nervous, where did he have time to talk to them here, and said directly, "Your Majesty, there is no basis for what you say, seeing is believing, it's not dark yet, let's just go out of the city together to have a look!" β
ββSeveral people glanced at each other, and Li Shimin said loudly, "Wang De, hurry up and organize people and prepare to leave the palace!" β
ββIt didn't take long for a crack team to leave the city, and it was not so bells and whistles to obey the authorities, and not so bells and whistles of honor guards. When I arrived at the field, I saw that the field was surrounded by onlookers, and I let out exclamations from time to time.
ββAfter the sergeant pushed away the villagers, Li Shimin and the others found that the villagers were plowing the fields with new plows. A few people looked at it for a while, and found that it was really like what Li Chunfeng said, it was extremely easy and the efficiency was doubled.
ββFang Xuanling didn't even take off his official robe when he saw it, he directly led the ox over, walked down for a while, and said excitedly, "Your Majesty, this curved plow can be turned very easily, unlike the previous straight plow, you have to use a lot of strength." Obviously, this new plow is more flexible, less labor-intensive, and more time-saving. β
