When I arrived at the threshing ground, I put down the windmill and turned around to see a large group of people.

Uncle Wang looked at everyone in confusion, "What are you doing?"

"Hey, we all want to come over and see what kind of car you have."

"Yes, we are all very curious about what this thing is. It looks very different."

The villagers also responded.

Su Dingguo said to the crowd: "This thing is called a grain windmill, which can blow away the chaff and empty grains of grain."

The villagers were immediately curious when they heard this. "Can we really blow away impurities from the grains? That would be great."

"Who knows if that thing is useful! They just use these fancy things to cheat. We farmers still have to keep our feet on the ground." Another villager retorted disdainfully.

"No matter whether it's useful or not, it's not yours and I didn't ask you to pay for it. Why are you causing trouble here?" Another villager spoke up directly.

"I think you are just jealous of others."

The man was suddenly speechless.

"Okay, let's start the trial."

In fact, I tried it at home when I first made it, and found it to be very useful. But because the amount of grain used was not much, I thought of trying it with a large amount of grain in the drying yard.

The second brother Su Zhiwu directly picked up a large basket of wheat and poured it into the funnel, while starting to shake the handle.

The wheat fell down in large flakes, impurities began to float out on the left, and clean wheat fell into the basket below.

Seeing this scene, people were shocked. The crowd was in an uproar and started talking.

"Oh my god, this is so awesome!"

“It’s very fast!”

A villager bumped into the person next to him and said, "Look carefully at the wheat underneath, it's been plucked so cleanly!"

"If we had this thing, wouldn't it be much easier, faster and cleaner? We wouldn't have to winnow the wheat with a shovel any more!"

Grandpa and Uncle Wang were also very shocked. After all, they had only experimented with a small amount of wheat. They didn't expect that so much wheat could be processed so quickly and smoothly.

What follows is joy!

"It worked! We succeeded!"

The two elderly people, both in their fifties, hugged each other excitedly, patted each other on the back and laughed.

In less than an hour, the wheat of the Su family had been cleaned up. Of course, the second brother also contributed to this. The second brother was the strongest in the family and had been shaking the grain windmill.

Although the valley windmill is very convenient, it is very tiring and difficult to do any exercise continuously. We cannot ignore the efforts of the people behind the scenes because of some things.

"This thing is amazing! It took less than an hour to process all the wheat from the Su family!"

"Who says it's not true? If I could own a car like this, I would wake up laughing in my dreams."

"With this car, we can easily finish several days' work in just a few hours." The villagers looked envious.

Moreover, this grain windmill can not only blow wheat, but also rice, sesame and other grains.

The grain yield in this era was not high. One acre of land could only produce about three stones of grain, which is about three hundred kilograms.

But who has only one acre of land? Adding up several acres would be a considerable sum.

The crowd began to have some different ideas.

"Old man Su, can we borrow your car?"

Other villagers also chimed in and wanted to borrow the car.

Su Dingguo looked at the various expressions of the villagers and said, "This is not something that belongs to me alone. I can't make a decision by myself. Let's go home and discuss it and then give you an answer."

"Okay, okay, then go back and discuss it." The crowd dispersed again.

When we got home, a group of people sat around the table.

Su Dingguo wanted to hear everyone's opinions: "What do you think?"

Uncle Wang didn't care, "Just lend it to me."

Su Mu couldn't help but think more. Although they were all from the same village, there was only one thing, and it was also a problem as to who should go first and who to lend it to.

There is no guarantee that some people may have some bad intentions. It would be troublesome if someone comes to cause damage before it is their turn.

Although I'm not afraid of people causing trouble, wouldn't it be better to have no troubles?

Su Mu thought about this and said, "Who should we lend it to? There is only one of this thing, and some people might feel disappointed if they don't get it."

Su Dingguo nodded with satisfaction, "The man is innocent but guilty of possessing a treasure."

Although this is just a small windmill, it can bring great convenience to farmers.

It even saved ten days or half a month, and the time and manpower and material resources saved in even more places are immeasurable.

At this time, the village chief came over. He looked quite old, with a white beard. "I heard that you made a valley windmill?"

Qingshan Village has had this village chief for many years. Whenever there is something happening in the village, he is the one running around and he is very responsible.

The village chief is old now, but everyone in the village still respects him very much.

"I'm here to discuss it with you. I've also mentioned it to the villagers in general. How about the village pay to buy this windmill?" the village chief asked tentatively.

"I know you're in a difficult situation. It's hard for you to refuse the villagers who asked you to borrow money. There are so many people in the village, and it's impossible to take care of everyone."

"It would be better if the village paid to buy it directly and make it a public property of the villagers. This would also eliminate some people's petty ideas."

"And this is a good thing. It is very convenient to have this machine in the village. It saves a lot of time and manpower. It can also be used for a long time."

So considering that they were all from the same village, they gave it a lower price, and the village chief spent one or two taels of silver to buy the windmill.

Su Dingguo looked at everyone and said, "We can actually sell it or not, but since the village chief has asked, it's hard to refuse."

"It's a problem if you don't sell it or lend it to anyone, and not every family will cherish their things and use them."

"Those with bad intentions who can't get it themselves and come to cause trouble are small fry. If they reveal it to the landlords or something like that, they can just snatch it away and you won't get a penny. Now that it's public property, we don't have to worry so much."

After listening to these things, Uncle Wang also realized that he had thought too simply, thinking that since they were all villagers, it didn't matter.

Su Mu also knows that people's hearts are unpredictable, and people may be grateful for a favor or resentful for a debt. You lend it to someone for free, but they may not necessarily appreciate your kindness. Isn't this a rare case?

What's more, Xiandai Sumu is an orphan who grew up in an orphanage. He has seen a lot of such things. Although there are pure and kind people, they can't just block other people's humanity. It's best to put an end to such things directly.

And in this era, power can influence many things to a great extent.

Su Mu was thinking wildly in his mind: "Grandpa is right. This will save us a lot of trouble. There is more than one Gu windmill. We have the blueprints, so we can have as many as we want. It's not a bad idea to make money from it."

Su Mu smiled and said, "Come on, let's talk about happy things and divide the money!"

Su Dingguo took the silver and said, "Your uncle Wang will get 30%, I will get 30%, and Mumu will get 40%. After all, the blueprint belongs to Mumu."

Uncle Wang refused, "If you hadn't asked me to do it, I wouldn't have been able to make it. It's great to be able to participate in it. It has given me a lot of experience. How can I ask for your money?"

Su Mu watched the two people pushing the silver back and forth with a smile on his face.

"If you don't want it, then give it to me." Su Mu joked.

Su Dingguo also stuffed the money directly into his hands, "Just take it!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Uncle Wang quickly took the silver.

The two of them laughed out loud.
