Chapter 673 Washing clothes has tools
Li Longji looked at Li Yi in wonder and thought to himself, I ask where to find someone to farm, please mention someone to me?
"San brother, when the terraced fields are opened, livestock must be involved. When the water net comes out, the water transportation will increase, and cattle and horses will be sent to the plowing fields."
Li Yi himself returned to what Li Longji asked about.
There are cattle and horses rented out in the farm for pulling carts. When the water net is laid, the cattle and horses will be rented out in winter.
In the three seasons of spring, summer and autumn, as long as there is enough water in the water net, the cattle and horse will be idle.
"There are still many plows and rakes." Li Longji understood farming.
"Water drilling on the mountain to get water, and the water flows downward. A mountain without water must be a barren mountain, stones and some weeds, so there is no need to open terraces."
Li Yi introduced the future terrace arrangements, not to open a large terrace when you see a mountain.
In fact, there were no barren mountains in the place he bought, only small hills were not suitable to open terraces, so it was flattened.
"Can wheat be planted in terraced fields?" Li Longji believes that planting wheat is easier to manage.
"Growing rice, the large amount of seeds harvested from Jiangnan Road this year, in addition to supplying Henan Road, I want to try planting on terraced fields to see if it can be seen two seasons a year."
Li Yi pointed to the direction from Jiangnan, that is, Fujian.
In history, Chameng rice was first grown in Fujian and then promoted. After variants, hundreds of Chameng rice varieties were developed.
The rice planted on Zhuangzi is now ancient rice with low yield and good taste. The varieties were passed to Japan and Bangzi, and by then Li Yi, there were later varieties.
Later, his Northeast rice was no longer delicious and the taste became worse and worse.
If these two types of rice are planted together, they will be blooming, and new varieties are expected to appear.
As for what the new variety is, God knows.
Li Longji felt relieved and did not live in Li's village. He turned around and returned to Xingqing Palace.
Li Yi didn't want to sleep, so he was walking with his hands on his back, and he could hear the sound of rustling water.
He walked over with his voice, and a group of women in the village were washing clothes by the river in the village.
Now we are washing silk clothes. We use the method of washing, soap, rub it, and float it in water.
Hemp clothes need to be beaten with sticks and pound out the dirty things in the fibers.
Cotton clothes are naturally washboards.
Washboards are not suitable for rubbing erectus. They hurt your hands too much and cannot rub silk, which is not good for silk.
The farmers in the village are very hardworking. Now they have finished washing and drying them up and dry them all by noon tomorrow.
Silk is the easiest, and it cannot keep water.
"Owner, the owner is here." A woman discovered the shadow under the light.
A group of women greeted each other, turned their heads and continued to wash.
"I'm so tired. How can I wash my clothes like this? I'm ashamed of my boss." Li Yi threw down a sentence and turned around and ran away.
Back in the study room in the yard, he began to draw pictures.
After drawing the picture, he went to the workshop and found the person on duty and handed it over: "Make it first, there are three kinds in total."
The next day, the sun rose and Li Yi got up late. He went to take a shower first and asked the palace maids and eunuchs: "Do you eat?"
"Wait for the owner to eat together." Taohong replied.
"Push the dining cart, let's go to the river to eat."
Li Yi said several times, don’t wait for him. The palace maids and eunuchs should wait except for being hungry on duty at night.
Nine people took their dining carts to the river where they were washing clothes, and wooden barrels were connected to the water truck by the river.
A pole attached to the lid can be lifted at any time, it rotates with hexagonal snaps.
When pressed down, the snap buckle will be stuck on a snap buckle on the wooden barrel lid after a few turns, causing the pole on the wooden barrel lid to rotate together.
The person who was washing clothes looked at the bucket and lifted the pole when it was almost the same. Press the other pole and the direction of rotation was reversed.
Li Yi looked at it and said, "In fact, you can add a clutch, then turn it around, replace it with a positive belt with a character belt, and manually operate it twice, which is safer and faster than the current one."
One pulley drives the other wheel, and the two wheels are connected by a belt and rotate in the same direction.
If the belt is in a figure-eight shape, the two wheels rotate in the opposite direction.
Just add a clutch device and change the two sets back and forth, and the rotation direction of the washing machine will change accordingly.
This is the washing machine made by Li Yi, water conservancy driver.
The other is hand-rock roll, and the third is foot-pedal.
This was the first manual washing machine, but later it was a steam engine, which was replaced by a steam engine.
"Owner, the night shifter said you came and ran away again. I didn't expect you to find a solution. You are the most powerful."
People who change shifts during the day are full of admiration. Today they use a hydro washing machine, which is fast and effort-saving.
"Things that should have thought of long ago can be sold with hand-crank and foot-pedals. The sealing does not need to be too tight, and you won't be afraid of leaking some water.
As long as you control the speed of shaking and stomping, the damage to silk clothes will be less."
Seeing that there were no problems in the actual operation, Li Yi was satisfied and stayed here for dinner.
After hearing that the merchants had nothing to do, they came over to watch the magical things.
The washing machine has no technical content. According to the various machinery used in the village, the washing machine is nothing more than just a use.
In the afternoon, Lijiazhuangzi connected a large number of buckets by the Bashui River.
People in the freelancers brought out their clothes and lined up to wash.
The notice board at the bridge head is pasted with three types of washing machines design drawings and principles introductions.
The physical objects with hand-crank and foot pedal are placed next to them for people to try.
Yulin Feiqi asked for a set of drawings and two physical objects and ran to the palace.
"Your Majesty, Lord Li has released new things, good things for washing clothes." Yu Linfei rode outside Xingqing Hall and shouted.
Not long after, people from nearby came to watch.
The two palace maids shook and the other stepped on, and the washing machine turned rapidly.
The person who shakes the shaking a few times, shakes in another direction, and the same goes for stepping on it.
"It's hard to shake, but it's better to shake it just by washing a few pieces of clothing."
Yao Chong arrived, and he was not surprised at Li Yixin taking out the things.
What he was afraid of was that Li Yi had not moved for a long time and occasionally threw out a small convenient thing, which was very good.
Zhang said he took over and tried it himself: "It's really good. Making one for someone to wash clothes will make more money."
Bi Gou looked at it carefully: "It's not technically difficult, it's not a luxury, but a skillful person can do it himself."
I regretted it, but he was happy again.
"My Ministry of Revenue has built a water network this year. Can we put a lot of small water trucks on the river of the water network, and we can thaw mills and remove shells. If we change it to a bucket, we can just wash the machine."
"Old Bi, please have some face." Song Jing couldn't stand it anymore. He is such a serious person, and now he learns the style of Li Yi's statement.
"Who is shameless? The Ministry of Revenue will be responsible for the maintenance of the water network in the future." Bi Gou stared at him.
"Didn't your Ministry of Revenue make money in the cooperation between ships?" Lu Huaishen said to Bi Gou.
"Why are you always targeting me?" Bigo turned his head.
"You can arrange it in the Yeting Palace." Li Longji thought of a place where the Yeting Palace was busy working, especially washing clothes.
Many people get up early and start working, working until dark and can’t even have a bite of food.
The longer the sky is, the longer it takes to work.
