Chapter 636: Lifting the water ashore

This night, Wang Ping'an really didn't leave, and waited in the riverside village. However, there was no place to live in the village, so he could only chat with Jiang Shuiqing in the courtyard.

Jiang Shuiqing is very old-fashioned, belongs to people who don't care about anything else in the world except for professional knowledge, Wang Ping'an talked to him about the customs of Chang'an, he and Wang Ping'an stared at each other, without saying a word, Wang Ping'an had to chat with him about the waterwheel, but Jiang Shuiqing went to see Boss Du and they built a waterwheel, but chatted with Boss Du and them, but ignored Wang Ping'an.

Wang Ping'an couldn't, so he had to send someone to find other officials from the Ministry of Industry, assembling the waterwheel is a big deal, the more professionals, the better, even if he can't put forward suggestions for improvement, he can do a favor or something.

But after the officials of the Ministry of Industry came, they didn't even chat with him to relieve his boredom, but all ran to look at the drawings and see Boss Du and the waterwheel they built.

There was no way, the night was long, and he had no intention of sleeping, Wang Ping'an had to go out of the yard and walk slowly, but there were too many dogs in the village, and they barked endlessly as soon as it was dark, which made people very upset, Wang Ping'an had to go back to Du's house, and simply asked someone to light a torch and go into the house to see a doctor for Du's sister-in-law.

The sister-in-law of the Du family has seen her condition well, not only can she sit up, but also walk around on the ground, she saw Wang Ping'an coming in, and even wanted to boil water for Wang Ping'an to drink. Wang Ping'an told her not to be busy, she had tuberculosis, the disease was contagious, he was embarrassed to say it clearly, but implicitly told the sister-in-law of the Du family, don't be tired, it's best not to cook and do manual work, and when you are well, it's not too late to work to take care of your family.

The sister-in-law of the Du family sat on the edge of the bed, and Wang Ping'an sat on a newly typed mazar and checked her pulse. After doing a good examination, Wang Ping'an said: "Sister-in-law Du, your condition has improved, much faster than I originally thought." ”

The sister-in-law of the Du family said: "Yes, the little woman also feels that her body is recovering quite quickly. Seeing that the head of the house was busy, with a smile on his face, and the family had food for the night, the little woman's illness healed faster, and she had hope in her heart, and she no longer thought of dying quickly. ”

Wang Ping'an nodded, he had done psychological counseling for her when he used to see her sister-in-law, for tuberculosis, psychological auxiliary treatment is very important, it can give the patient confidence, so that she has the courage to live, otherwise the mood is always bad, then you have to be depressed if you are not sick, not to mention that you have to be seriously ill!

Wang Ping'an said: "You are not a serious illness in the first place, as long as you take the medicine on time, you will be fine, at most you can rest for a while and recuperate." Are your hot flashes and night sweats getting better? ”

The sister-in-law of the Du family nodded hurriedly and said, "See, although it is not completely better, it is much better than before." The little woman estimated that with a few more doses of medicine, she would be all right. ”

Wang Ping'an thought to himself: "All good? It wasn't easy. It can only be gradually improved, especially when it comes to the subsequent conditioning, which really has to be calculated on a year-by-year basis. ”

He said, "Take five more doses." When your hot flashes and night sweats are gone, I'll prescribe you a new prescription. ”

The sister-in-law of the Du family nodded again and again, since she "knew" that her serious illness was not so terrible, and it was not tuberculosis, her mood began to improve, and now Wang Ping'an said that after taking five more doses, the symptoms would disappear, and she was in a better mood.

There were many torches outside the house, and the whole courtyard was full of people's voices and noise, and everyone was busy. Wang Ping'an looked at the scene outside through the window, and thought: "I will be very busy for a period of time in the future, if I forget Sister-in-law Du, and they won't remind me, wouldn't it be to delay her condition." ”

Wang Ping'an said: "Sister-in-law Du, I'll show you again to see if there are any symptoms that haven't been seen before." ”

The sister-in-law of the Du family stretched out her wrist again, and Wang Ping'an examined her again, more carefully than just now, and there were many items. After a while, he finished the examination and said with a smile: "It's okay, there is no hidden disease." Depending on your condition, after taking another five doses, the symptoms of hot flashes and night sweats will disappear, and other symptoms will be relieved, but it will still take a long time to recover completely. ”

He shouted outside, and the official of the Ministry of Plumbing asked for a pen and paper to prescribe medicine to the sister-in-law of the Du family. In fact, it is still the same prescription that was prescribed earlier, but it has been adjusted again, tuberculosis is a stubborn disease, and if you want to cure it without modifying it, it is really too difficult. This time, he removed the peony skin and the earth bone skin, and added another hundred.

Wang Ping'an handed over the new recipe to the sister-in-law of the Du family and said, "You take it, this recipe is not something to be taken now, I'm afraid that I will be busy and I won't be able to take care of you when the time comes, which will delay your condition." After you have taken the medicine you are taking now and have taken five doses, you can take this medicine again, and you will have to take this medicine for half a month, and your cough and asthma symptoms can be relieved. ”

The sister-in-law of the Du family took the prescription and muttered: "Then I have to take the medicine for more than half a month, my disease is very difficult to treat!" ”

Wang Ping'an hurriedly comforted: "It's not difficult to treat, isn't it because it's been delayed for too long!" You have been sick for two years, and now you have been cured, it has not been two months, this is fast enough, what do you still want? As he spoke, he said, "You're too dissatisfied."

The sister-in-law of the Du family smiled embarrassedly and said, "Yes, what the adults said is that the little woman is indeed a little anxious. ”

Wang Ping'an said again: "After you finish taking the new prescription, ask your head to find me, if I am too busy to remember this, I must let him remind me, no matter how busy I am, I can squeeze out time to see you." Then I will prescribe a prescription for you, and we will cure this disease, but we can't delay it any longer. ”

The sister-in-law of the Du family nodded again and again, she couldn't delay it any longer, she really couldn't delay it any longer. But she couldn't help asking, "But the money for this medicine?" The medicine that the little woman is taking now is very expensive, and it takes a long time, and she really can't afford it......"

Wang Ping'an stood up, pointed out the window, and said: "Sister-in-law Du, you see, as long as the new waterwheel is built, Boss Du will no longer be a poor man, I will not only double his salary, but also give him dividends, just this year's effort, you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and even your children's future life can be guaranteed." ”

After speaking, he comforted the Du family's sister-in-law a few more words, and then went out of the yard to see Boss Du and they build a waterwheel.

In fact, Du Boss and they use assembly line operations, one person is responsible for creating a thing, the method of assembly line operations, no one needs to teach them, the wisdom of working people is unlimited, this is not a big truth, it is really practice to know the truth. Many of the parts of the waterwheel are repetitive, like the bucket and the skeleton are exactly the same, so the division of labor and cooperation is more efficient.

After midnight, all the parts have been built, and Boss Du and they can't wait for the dawn, so they call the people of the whole village, carry the parts together, and rush to the river. Wang Ping'an called in the guards and servants to help, and he himself carried a skeleton and transported it to the river with the villagers.

There are many people who are easy to do, and all the parts and components were transported to the river in just two trips, and the weir has already been made by the river, and all kinds of preparations have been done in advance, just waiting for the waterwheel to come.

Boss Du They are enthusiastic about their work, as soon as the things arrive, they immediately start to assemble, and the officials of the Ministry of Industry also go up to help, they are all experienced people, even if they have not seen this kind of wheeled waterwheel, but the keel waterwheel in the south has all been seen, everyone works together, assembled.

At dawn, everyone rested a little, and then worked again until the afternoon, when the sun was shining, the Ping'an waterwheel was assembled and stood on the trough frame.

At this time, thousands of people came from near and far to see the excitement, and almost all the people from nearby villages came, helping the old and the young, to see the new waterwheel. The people are the most concerned about this kind of thing, this is related to their lives, more than anything that interests them, the riverside village to build a waterwheel, the news has long spread all over the four towns and eight villages, the people all know, if it weren't for Du Boss repeatedly said that they don't need help, they would have come in batches to help build the waterwheel.

Boss Du held a wooden hammer, the wooden hammer was wrapped with a layer of leather, he knocked on the last slot, and after dozens of clicks, the slot was fixed. He cried out, "It is finished! Then he jumped away, far away from the big waterwheel.

The eyes of the people widened, looking at this huge waterwheel, it was like looking at a monster, and the expressions on everyone's faces were very nervous, and they were very anxious, afraid that this waterwheel would not turn!

Just heard a few creaky sounds, the safe waterwheel first shook slightly, and then stabilized!

Wang Ping'an's heart was beating wildly, and he thought: "No, it won't fail, right?" Don't fail, it's too time-consuming to build! ”

The people thought to themselves, "What is going to happen to this thing, by the wind?" There's no wind right now! Some people even puff out their cheeks, like blowing on the stove, to give this windmill some wind!

Boss Du thought to himself: "Almost, there is a door, it is no problem to listen to the sound assembly, the squeak is because there are still slots that are not completely fixed, as long as it is rotated, it will naturally be tight, and there will be no more squeaks!" ”

The officials of the Ministry of Industry thought to themselves: "It's done, this waterwheel will definitely be able to spin, and it will definitely not be wrong!" "They've seen so many waterwheels that if they hear the sound, they know if they can do it!

The Ping'an waterwheel stopped for a moment, turned up gently, followed the flow of the river, turned faster and faster, and finally stabilized the speed, and the river was lifted up from the river, the bucket scooped up the river water, lifted the river water, turned to the headspace and poured into the trough, endlessly, flowing into the small canal!

"It's done, it's done!" The people shouted together, applause erupted, and many people ran to the canal, picked up the water, and shouted loudly.

Boss Du and the carpenters sat down on the ground together, their whole bodies collapsed, but everyone was so happy that they couldn't speak.

The officials of the Ministry of Industry all ran to the river and looked down to see the water wheels carrying water. Only Jiang Shuiqing, after being stunned for a moment, strode up to Wang Ping'an, and said: "Prince, you are stronger than Xiaguan, Xiaguan pretended to be the first person in the Ministry of Water, but in fact, compared to you, it is far worse!" Admire, admire! ”
