Da Qin: Give Ancestral Dragon the elixir of death at the beginning!

was reminded by Meng Tian like this, Ying Zheng also glanced at the farmers in the field

There was a look of doubt in his eyes.

Although he is not a farmer, he has governed the country for so many years

Naturally, I know the farming situation of farmers in Daqin.

Now the farmers of the whole Great Qin are cultivating the fields

Basically, the fields are cultivated by means of two oxen lifting the bar.

Because the Quyuan plough had not yet been invented at this time

At this time, the straight plough is used, and two oxen are required to pull it.

In this era, when a farmer ploughed the field, he had to drive two oxen

A crossbar is erected around the necks of two oxen, and a rake is then laid on the crossbar.

When plowing the field, let a person sit on a crossbar and control the rake

One man drives two cows to control the direction

It is also necessary to hold the rake alone to prevent it from missing the target.

So set down,

When the people of Daqin were plowing the fields, they needed at least three people and two oxen to complete the ploughing.

And the villagers of this cottage only need one person and one cow

You will be able to complete the ploughing with a comfortable stomach.

And looking at the scene of the scene, the farmer uses this method of plowing the field

The efficiency of ploughing has also been greatly improved.

"Master He, I didn't expect that a farmer like you could plough the field alone with only one person and one ox

It's amazing!".

Suddenly, a look of shock appeared on Ying Zheng's face, and he exclaimed loudly.

The sharp-eyed Ying Zheng saw the difference between these rakes and other places, and asked in wonder

"What is the name of the plough and rake used by these farmers?"

He Chao didn't expect that the Quyuan plough he invented shocked the two of them again

Immediately said triumphantly

"Haha, that's the zigzag plough I invented. "

"Quyuan plow?".

"He Chao invented it again?".

When Ying Zheng heard this, his sharp eyes swept a glance at the farmer's plow and rake not far away

Instantly lost in thought.

The straight plough used in this era, because of the straight shape,

When the rake is advancing in the soil, no matter how deep the person who controls the rake is

If the rake encounters an obstacle in the soil, it will immediately pop out of the soil.

The efficiency of ploughing can be described as extremely low

And after a short investigation just now, Ying Zheng discovered the advantages of this Quyuan plow.

That is the reason why this curved plough is bent in shape

Not only can the soil be easily turned over

And hooking into the soil is like an iron hook, and it will not be easily popped out of the soil

The efficiency is a world of difference compared to the straight plow.

In this way, the use of curved ploughs to plough the field not only greatly saves manpower

And the efficiency and time of ploughing have been greatly improved.

This is a great advantage when it comes to farming.

Thinking of this, a look of excitement appeared on Ying Zheng's face

looked at He Chao with burning eyes and said:

"Master Hezhai, your zigzag plough is really amazing!".

"If it is popularized in Daqin, it will be another great achievement!"

Meng Tian also thought deeply when he heard this, and looked at He Chao with an appreciative look and nodded.

When Winsman heard this, he was a little confused, he didn't understand this thing

However, when she saw her father praising He Chao again, she was also very happy.

Hearing Ying Zheng's praise, He Chao was not fluttering, and waved his hand again:

"Haha, it's not as exaggerated as you say

Compared to the sweet potato and potato I mentioned, this qu yuan plow is nothing compared to the comparison. "

"Let's go, I'll take you to see sweet potatoes and potatoes. "

After speaking, He Chao beckoned to Ying Zheng and the others again and continued to walk forward.

When Ying Zheng and the others heard this, they were agitated again, and immediately followed.

Soon, several people came to the side of a huge field

He Chao stood on the ridge and pointed to the green sweet potato field not far away and said

"Lao Qin, Lao Meng, look, this is the sweet potato I told you!"

Ying Zheng and Meng Tian immediately looked in the direction of He Chao's finger.

As a result of the two of them, they were all endless green sweet potato vines.

Sweet potato vines grow excellently

But the vines swayed in the wind, but they did not bear any fruit.

Meng Tian's smooth sweet potato seedlings were a little shocked in his eyes

Then he showed a puzzled look, looked at He Chao suspiciously, and asked

"Master Hezhai, you said that this sweet potato yields at least sixty stones per mu, why can't I see a single sweet potato?"

"That's right, Lord He

You just said that this sweet potato can yield at least 60 stone per mu, you won't be fooling us, right?"

Ying Zheng originally came in with excitement

However, after seeing this smooth sweet potato seedling, my heart suddenly cooled by half.

Hearing the questioning of the two, He Chao sneered:

"Hehe, you two don't understand, don't talk nonsense. "

"The fruit of my sweet potato is not on the vine at all, but in the ground. "

When Ying Zheng and Meng Tian heard this, they were immediately speechless, and their faces were even more embarrassed.

They didn't expect the fruit of this sweet potato to grow in the ground

They also said that they couldn't see the fruit, which was really embarrassing.

Although Ying Zheng's face was embarrassed,

But on the surface, he still pretended to be incredulous and asked

"Really?".

"I have lived for decades, and I have never heard of the fruit of grain growing in the ground!".

Meng Tian and Ying Shiman also thought deeply and nodded.
