Chapter 567 The Light of Technology
The Leizhou government office had previously summoned a large number of craftsmen, and they followed the craftsmen of Leizhou Guard to form the Leizhou Craftsman Institute, specializing in making some things that would seem strange to outsiders.
The Craftsman's Institute is located in front of the County Academy, only a few dozen feet away from the government office. There is no plaque in front of the door, making it appear to be a very low-key and unconventional institution. Not many people know about it today.
"I've met Mr. Fu Zun!"
The middle-aged man in charge of the craftsman's courtyard is named Chang Shun, who is responsible for taking care of the daily affairs here. When he learned that the master of the house was here, he hurried out of the house, but he obviously smelled of alcohol.
But it wasn't that he neglected his official duties, but that he took advantage of Huniu's birthday. Today, the craftsman's courtyard was on holiday for most of the day, and he received good food and wine from the United Restaurant. He couldn't help but drink a few glasses of wine.
"Lead the way!"
Lin Haoran smelled the smell of alcohol on his body and frowned slightly, but did not have an attack and said very coldly. As he has been in Leizhou magistrate for a long time, his official authority has also grown day by day.
"Master Fu, please!"
Chang Shun made a gesture of invitation and then hurriedly led the way.
This craftsman's courtyard is a house with three entrances, but it is not too small. However, there are no flowers and plants in the courtyard, but some materials are piled up, and there are also various strange things placed there.
Although they have been on vacation for most of the day, many craftsmen are staying in the craftsmen's yard, and some are still working on the work at hand, demonstrating the fine tradition of Chinese diligence.
Huh?
Huniu walked in with Er Gouzi and others carelessly, but after entering here, her big bright eyes were a little surprised, especially when she saw several people in a certain room working on a boat.
The small wooden sailboat looks very delicate.
In fact, she had been here before, but she found it was not fun, so she never came again. She caught a cold a few days ago, and her brother even kept her at home for several days. Then there was the matter of organizing her birthday party, so she almost had to
Forget about this place.
But what she never expected was that the changes here would be so drastic, and it seemed so fun. She immediately made up her mind to play here more often in the future.
The group of people walked through the corridor and came directly to the courtyard in the middle. They saw a large wooden tray in the center of the courtyard. There were tigers, lions, horses and other animals on the large wooden tray, which looked very elegant.
"Brother, is this what it is?"
Huniu watched her brother stamping his feet in front of the big wooden plate, and then his eyes fell on the mount on the big wooden plate. She immediately guessed that this was a birthday gift for her, and asked seriously with her face raised.
There was no surprise in her heart, but she didn't feel disgusted either. To sum it up in one word: OK. She is not a picky person, and she is certainly not picky about her brother's gifts.
If there is anything bad about it, it is that the wooden plate is too big and there are too many mounts on it. In fact, she would be very happy if she was given a wooden mount.
Lin Haoran turned around and pointed at the big turntable, looking very proud and said: "Yes, this is the birthday gift I gave you. It took a lot of effort!"
"Thank you, brother, can I ride up now?" Huniu asked with a sweet smile and hopeful eyes.
Lin Haoran smiled and nodded: "Of course, this is for you to play with!"
"Let's go up, you are not allowed to fight!" Huniu looked back at Ergou and the others, waved her little hand and warned.
These children are all playful in age, and they can play with a pile of sand for most of the day, not to mention these chairs of different shapes. There was originally a wooden ladder to go up, but a few boys jumped on it directly.
There are only eight kinds of mounts on the wooden plate. The second dog corresponds to the dog, the chicken corresponds to the rooster, the cow and the third cow correspond to the buffalo, and the horse face corresponds to the horse. Naturally, Huniu is riding the majestic tiger.
.
As if in the blink of an eye, these children seized the eight mounts. Facing the dispute, Huniu asked them to take turns, and the children followed this instruction.
"Drive! Drive! Drive!"
"Kill! Kill!"
"Look at me, I'm going to fly!"
…
The world of children is so simple. Sitting on the wooden animal, it seems as if it is really riding a beast. It screams loudly and has a great time.
The tiger that Huniu was riding on seemed to be tailor-made for her. Her feet just stepped on the grooves, and she was holding the extra wooden handle in her hand, which could still shake slightly with force.
When she is happy, she does not laugh like a crazy girl, but looks restrained, or a little sullen. Her eyebrows are slightly raised, her eyes are bright, and her face is red.
Huh?
Just when she was feeling proud, she suddenly noticed something strange. The tiger seemed to move. Her brother was clearly standing in front of her on the right, but he didn't seem to move, but slowly appeared on her right side.
But at some point, some children were called down by several craftsmen. In the surprised eyes of these children, the big wooden plate suddenly began to rotate slowly, and the eight mounts also followed suit.
Wow……
The little rabbit sat on top of a male rabbit and cried loudly, frightened by this sudden change.
Wow……
The little cicada was sitting on a goat, and almost following the little rabbit, she also cried loudly on it.
But not only the two timid little girls, but also the two little boys cried loudly. They were all frightened by this sudden change. Especially Ergou, he wet his pants on the spot.
Several craftsmen had already received guidance and hugged the mice one by one, and then they stopped crying.
"It's moving! It's moving! This one can actually move!"
However, Huniu was not afraid. Instead, a flash of excitement flashed across her eyes, and she stared with great joy and said in surprise.
Lin Haoran, who was sitting next to him, looked at the wild girl speechlessly. Originally, he wanted to scare Huniu on purpose. Even if he didn't scare her to tears, it would still be nice to see her trembling.
It's just that the truth is very cruel. His sister is more courageous than he thought, and she is not afraid at all. This undoubtedly hurts him very much.
Huniu didn't realize her brother's bad intentions, so she waved to Lin Haoran and said, "Brother, come up quickly! This one that can rotate is really fun!"
Lin Haoran was speechless. Who knew better than him whether this could be rotated?
But he didn't live up to the girl's kindness. He immediately stepped onto the wooden turntable and sat on the dog's saddle. However, for some reason, his crotch suddenly became wet, but it did not prevent him from feeling the magic of technology.
Combined with the knowledge of later generations, he had no interest in building a steam engine, but it did not prevent him from building a carousel.
