Traveling through ancient times.

"What do you want to say?" The other party stuttered for a long time without saying the rest of the sentence. Not only Jiang Yizhou was anxious, but even Yun Xin next to him was anxious for him.

"Let me do it, and I'll give you money..."

Jiang Yizhou was thinking, I asked you to make something, and you pay me? Immediately, she understood what they meant.

Master Zhang Mugui said, "Miss Jiang, I can make this waterwheel. The structure is very simple. I am willing to make it for you for free. I only ask you to give me the blueprint, and I..."

"Will you do it for others in the future?"

Zhang Mugui nodded and looked at Jiang Yizhou eagerly, fearing that the other party would disagree.

Jiang Yizhou said: "In fact, after this waterwheel is made, it will be imitated very quickly, so this blueprint is relatively popular for a period of time. Moreover, this is originally a good thing for everyone, so I am naturally very willing to let everyone use the waterwheel."

"That……"

"How about this, you build three for me first, and within a year, I'll take 10% of the cost of the waterwheels you build for others. How do you think?"

Zhang Mugui thought about it and nodded in agreement.

"no problem."

Verbal words are not enough, written evidence is needed.

Jiang Yizhou wrote a contract with charcoal pencil, Tao Er served as a witness, and both parties signed and sealed it.

Zhang Mugui put the drawings into his underwear like a treasure, his dark face flushed with excitement.

He patted his chest and assured, "We can deliver the goods within three days."

Jiang Yizhou repeated: "Three days?" This is too fast.

Tao Er was also very happy and explained: "Mugui's brother is also a carpenter, and his sons and nephews all do this. The most difficult part is the wheel hub of the waterwheel. As long as you have all the wood, assembly will be much easier."

Jiang Yizhou said, "Oh," and that's it.

Just when both parties had completed the signing, Jiang Yizhou's sea of ​​consciousness was "dinged" again.

[You have successfully promoted the waterwheel and improved the irrigation problem here. You will be rewarded with 200 merits]

[The irrigation technology you promote will automatically reward 1 merit for every ten people it benefits. From now on...]

Two hundred? And there are subsequent rewards?

Jiang Yizhou felt that she was about to burst into laughter, and she wanted to find a place to laugh for three minutes.

Indeed, her world should be this world, not under the eaves.

Just now he was saying that he had drained her merits and was worrying about how to earn merits to exchange for seeds, but the next moment... just because she was willing to spread the blueprint, she received a reward from Xiao Tongzi... um, the supreme rule.

This merit... is too easy to earn.

Xiao Tongzi: You probably don't know the value of the blueprint you provided and its impact on the entire agricultural society. Let me tell you this, with this waterwheel, the original cultivated land area can basically be expanded by nearly half or even more. How many people do you think this data can feed? How many people's lives can be improved?

Jiang Yizhou: ...

At this moment, Jiang Yizhou felt a little dizzy.

Faintly, it seemed as if there were circles of light drawn on my body, and I had an inexplicable feeling of being noble and great.

Jiang Yizhou thought that if possible, she felt that these more than two hundred merits could be exchanged for a few drawings.

Xiao Tongzi: You wish.

The reason why it could be exchanged for dozens of merits before was that you had already figured out the principle and prototype of the waterwheel, and the productivity of this era had already reached the level of producing a waterwheel, so the price was so low.

Jiang Yizhou took a while to adjust his state and sent Tao Er and Zhang Mugui away.

Then he ordered Tao Er, Liao Qi and others to prepare to reclaim the land.

The land here is barren and difficult to irrigate, so basically only oats are grown for one season.

Jiang Yizhou's idea is that unless she finds a more suitable crop, she plans to plant cassava everywhere here.

After all, we are promoting improved varieties, and when this season comes out, more people will surely come to ask for seeds.

At that time, Jiang Yizhou felt that according to the highest rule of kindness, he would definitely reward her for her merits.

The more she promotes, the more she earns. It’s a guaranteed profit.

Everyone looked at Jiang Yizhou and each other.

I didn't expect that the young lady, who used to stay at home all the time, actually understood so many principles.

On the other hand, Jiang Yizhou asked about the stock of pottery on the farm, which would be enough to sell for another year or two.

But we can’t let those workers stop working, because stopping means no income, and basically each of them has a whole family to support.

Jiang Yizhou asked Tao Er to temporarily borrow the workers from Taozhuang to dig the pond.

Since the water is brought to the mountain, we can dig a large reservoir on the mountain.

The wages are the same as in Taozhuang.

Jiang Yizhou still has 500 taels of silver in his pocket, so he can spend as much as he wants.

A few workers would definitely not be enough to prepare for the water truck that would arrive three days later.

So he gathered another thirty or forty farmers from the surrounding areas, paying them ten cents a day as wages, plus two meals.

Two cents were enough for a meal, and ordinary workers earned four or five cents a day. Those with some skills, such as stonemasons and bricklayers, earned about ten cents.

So ten cents may not seem like much, but it is definitely a high salary in that era.

Basically all the labor that could be spared in the family came.

No matter whether it is a man or a woman, as long as he can wield a hoe and carry soil, he can do it.

However, there were only three or four women who came to apply for the job.

On the one hand, people here basically don't allow women to show their faces in public, and on the other hand, people don't believe that she would pay a woman such a high salary.

Jiang Yizhou treated them the same as men, and also found a few women who were good at cooking to prepare two meals a day for these fifty or sixty people.

Building temporary shacks, setting up pots and stoves, buying food, etc., money was pouring out.

Yunxin and Yucui felt like they were dreaming when they saw their young lady turning the farm upside down.

The lady has really changed, she seems a little strange.

But, they prefer such ladies, who are full of energy and vigor, and make everyone who follows her seem to see hope, which is great.

…………

Ever since Miss Jiang slapped her son-in-law Ning Jianren in front of everyone, Ning Jianren felt that everyone's view of him had changed.

That day, everyone left and it took a whole day to clean up the mess in the yard. When he returned to the room, Jiang Yian threw himself towards him coquettishly.

While running, he said childishly: "Dad, wasn't that woman burned to death? Why did I hear them say she was not dead..."

This one sentence completely broke Ning Jianren's defense.

With a slap, he slapped me hard.

The tiny body flew out like a toy doll, and its head hit the corner of the table, immediately causing blood to flow out.

Ning Jianren still couldn't get over his anger, it was all because of this damn evil creature.

Otherwise, he would have used this evil creature to hold the woman back during the day, but he didn't dare, because if this evil creature saw it and told it in front of so many people... he would really be dead.

Not satisfied with just a slap, he rushed forward and kicked him twice.

However, Jiang Yian curled up on the ground like a shrimp, without even struggling.

Oh no, he's going to be beaten to death?!
