Farmers of Shu Han

Chapter 241 Transportation Efficiency
The spring plowing is over, and the summer grain has not been harvested. For the heads of Guizhou, they have already begun to count the rice grains and put them into the pot, and be ready to eat bran grains at any time, which is what the saying goes.

In fact, Feng Yong didn't want to buy grain at the time when the price of grain was the highest throughout the year, but the time Zhuge Old Demon left him was only one year.

What can he do?
So I can only grit my teeth and spit out some profits.

During this year, the dignitaries were busy cultivating wasteland, and the old demon Zhuge was busy collecting wool.

No one has the time and enough preparation to spin wool into cloth, so Feng Yong took advantage of such a gap and did his own business.

This thing makes so much money, and the life of the court is so tight, how could the old monster Zhuge let it go?

Feng Yongbu took this opportunity to make the textile workshop bigger. Could it be that he was waiting for the old demon Zhuge to come out and grab the business?
To make the workshop bigger, it needs more people.

More people means more food consumption.

The old demon Zhuge has promised that he can take in 1000 women in Nanzhong, and sell him another [-] strong Hu people.

Including the original people, there will be nearly 3000 more people in Nanxiang County in the future.

At this time, Feng Yong had to admire his own foresight. Zhao Guang and Wang Xun went to various places to survey and cultivate. On the way, they met some barbarians who didn't have long eyes.
The rich and powerful can secretly arrest barbarians and serve as coolies, so why can't I?

So it's not natural to send the Hu people who were captured by hand to Nanxiang to work as coolies?
Although Huang Wudie is the richest man in Hanzhong, where is the richest place in Hanzhong?Even with her family background, she can't afford thousands of mouthfuls of food.

It's almost the same for a middle-class family in Jincheng.

Feng Yong thought about it, and felt that he really had to go to Jincheng to collect food.

Fortunately, I harvested a batch of wool before winter last year. Although the cloth we wove was half as much as Hanzhong Mansion, at least half of it was for myself.

In addition, even though He Wang is a mad dog, he always wants to bite his clan house, but he is still very loyal to those who can help him avenge him.

Besides, Feng Yong also gave him Huang Hao's head to brush his official voice, so Ju County sent some wool from time to time throughout the winter.

Although it looks fragmented, it is not too small to accumulate throughout the winter.

Anyway, at that time, the imperial court did not say that it was not allowed to collect wool privately. As a strong order of the new generation, it explored the way for the imperial court to introduce a wool collection policy in the coming year and accumulated experience. What's wrong?

Hello, hello, hello everyone, how cool is it?

It's not like that Ma Di, who is [-]-[-]% when he speaks, I am!
If you like Panax notoginseng so much, why don’t you go to Nanzhong?

There is a lot of Panax notoginseng in Nanzhong, and it can also dissipate blood stasis and stop bleeding, reduce swelling and relieve pain, how good is it?

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Apart from Guan Ji, besides Feng Yong, Li Qiu is the only one beside Feng Yong.

Guan Ji seldom appeared these days, but Li Qiu followed Feng Yong's ass every day.

As for Li Qiu, the county magistrate, he was really leisurely, and he had nothing to do with football all day long.

I knew to run to the textile workshop, a pillar enterprise in the county.

"The wheel should be rounded, so that people can't push it when the time comes."

Feng Yong yelled at the craftsman, then turned his head and replied, "Trolley."

"trolley?"

Li Qiu approached it with interest, took a closer look, and said, "It looks unique, it looks somewhat similar to a deer cart."

"It's an improved deer cart."

Feng Yong admitted generously.

The deer cart has been around for a long time, and it can be regarded as the predecessor of the trolley, but because of the design, the carrying capacity is not very large, and generally it can only carry the weight of one or two people.

The trolley that Feng Yongsuo is preparing to make is the most mature appearance after more than 1000 years of use by later generations, and it can carry the weight of at least six people.

If it is made bigger, and a puller is added in front to allow people to pull it forward and push it back, the carrying capacity can be increased.

Two-wheeled vehicles pulled by livestock are good, but they generally can only be driven on good road conditions.

This kind of trolley can pass through narrow roads, alleys, ridges, and wooden bridges, especially in textile workshops. The trolley is used to transport goods to wool carders, spinners, and weavers, which is very convenient!

With this gadget, the efficiency of transportation in the textile workshop will be increased by at least several times.

Coupled with mine transportation, one word, cool!

As a conscientious capitalist in feudal society, Feng Tubie said that if work efficiency is not improved, can he be called a qualified capitalist?

Still the same sentence, don't you take advantage of the year Zhuge Old Demon left for you to work hard to lay the foundation, and wait to cry in the coming year?

In this era when there is no electricity and no gasoline, this is the best solution Feng Yong can think of to solve the transportation of workshops and mines.

Don't underestimate this car powered by manpower. Before the popularization of modern transportation tools in later generations, this kind of light transport and people-carrying tool, especially in the north, almost played the same role as a donkey.

Marshal Chen of the later generations once said that the Battle of Huaihai was launched by the people of Shandong with small carts, referring to this kind of cart.

"Used in the same way as a deer cart?"

Li Qiu turned around the car and asked.

Feng Yong nodded, "Yes. But it can hold more things than a deer cart, and it is more convenient."

After hearing this, Li Qiu was even more eager to give it a try. He lifted his robe and said, "Let's try it, little brother."

"This one won't work, it hasn't been finished yet, there's one, just finished, it's just a little flawed, but it's barely usable."

Feng Yong saw this thing in the corner of his farm tool room when he was a child, and he heard that it was used by his grandfather.

But this thing has not even been used by my father, how can he restore it all at once, that is, ask the carpenter to polish it bit by bit.

If you are not satisfied with what you have done, ask someone to redo it. Anyway, there are a lot of people at hand.

"It works if it can be used."

Li Qiu picked up the handlebar and tried to take two steps. He was amazed, "It looks similar to that deer cart, but once you get started, it really feels different, and it's much more convenient."

After thinking about it, he asked Feng Yong again, "I want to push it out for a try, can you allow me?"

"Anything. Just drop by and see what's wrong."

When Feng Yong heard it, there happened to be a free trial operator, so there was no disagreement.

"That little brother is being rude."

Li Qiu heard this, and immediately pushed it out. Feng Yong looked from behind and saw that he directly pushed the car to the side of the road, walked a few steps, and then pushed it back to the middle of the road. I don't know if it's inexperienced or on purpose.

Seeing that the craftsmen would not be able to make the next one for a while, Feng Yong walked to the door and watched Li Qiu pushing the cart outside in irregular curves.

Unexpectedly, just after a while, Feng Tubie suddenly opened his eyes wide, watching in disbelief as Li Qiu put the car on the side of the road and stopped, then put a big stone on the car, pushed two more steps, and Put another piece on it, and then gradually disappear at the other end of the road...

You can, young man, the operation is very professional, and you know to test the load capacity of the car?
