Chapter 150 (1/2)
After Randy went down with excitement, Li De inspected another circle of farms, but when the workers were working, he suddenly found a big problem.
All the water in the farm needs to be picked up by the workers themselves from the stream 300 blade away. The whole process is very inefficient.
Just at this time, several workers came back with a bucket full of water, ready to continue cleaning the pigsty.
Under the gaze of Li De, two barrels of water can not be washed, and half of the pigsty will be gone. Several workers are not satisfied with it, and continue to carry the empty bucket to fetch water.
Li De, who is used to modern production efficiency, can't accept this kind of low work efficiency.
It's a waste of time. How much time does it take to carry water every day??
”Harrison, do they all work like that now?”
Yeah?
Hearing Li De's question, Harrison looked at the workers cleaning the pigsty and nodded a little puzzled.
”Of course, does the patriarch have any good idea?”
Contact for a long time, Harrison too know Lee's ability, completely unrestrained thinking is far from comparable.
Take this farm as an example, the drawings that the experienced craftsmen in the construction department can admire are beyond his imagination.
Li De nodded, some obsessive-compulsive, he has always been unable to bear this kind of inefficient behavior.
”Have you ever heard of tap water?”
”What is tap water? Can I eat it? ”
Looking at Harrison's puzzled appearance, Li De smiles,

and rings his finger, and the mage's hand appears.
Under the gaze of several people, the translucent mage's hand picked up a bucket full of water, and the bucket was leaking.
The water in the bucket splashed out along the small hole under the bucket.
”See that?”
A group of people look at Li De blankly. What is this? Isn't it just water leakage? What's so rare about this?
Li De smiles.
”Although there is magic in glory, there is something in common about physical properties.
For reasons you don't know, the water always flows to the lower places.
And that's why I'm talking about the principle of running water. ”
He reached out to the mountain not far from the farm, and his tone was firm.
”What would you say if we opened a cistern halfway down the hill and connected it with pipes?”
Harrison nodded suddenly.
”The spring above will flow down the pipe, so that we won't waste time to draw water.” after that, he said excitedly to the blood clan next to him: ”let someone prepare the bamboo pipe immediately”
Li De waved his hand to stop Harrison.
”Water has a weight. The more water is, the higher it is from the ground, the greater the pressure will be. Ordinary bamboo pipes can't bear this pressure.
Even if it can bear the bamboo pipe, it is not durable, and it will be damaged in a few months.
Simply put it in place in one step and let the blacksmith of the blacksmith shop come and customize a set of iron pipes. ”
Tap water is undoubtedly a good thing, and the manufacturing cost of this thing is not high, you just need to pump the water to a high place, and then use the pressure of the water itself to press down to use.
This kind of invention, which has little technical content, is very easy to build, and has a great promoting effect on production and life.
The farm is very close to the water source, and the water is spring water left from the mountain. It is available at the right time, place and people. You only need to dig a reservoir on the hillside to complete the construction of tap water.
It's a huge project on earth to build a reservoir on the hillside of the rock mountain.
But it's a magical world, and the things that are hard to solve in modern times are the fundamental things, the little things.
As natural casters, blood clan will not suggest using magic to blow out a reservoir.
Li De was also a heavy fan of magic, and naturally he was very interested in it.
”Call the people from the construction department, and let's study how to build a reservoir”
the people from the construction department are in the crowd, and the farm they supervise and design has been completed today. Naturally, these people will come.
Although the construction of tap water was a whim, no one dared to question Lee's proposal.
In the dawn City, he is the only big boss, his will is the direction of the city.
A group of people immediately gathered around to discuss, because it was not a big project that was difficult to achieve, so the construction department got the result within a day.
”Patriarch, the Ministry of Construction said that it is better to make this reservoir bigger. In the future, the farm will continue to expand, so as not to be insufficient.
And the reservoir should consider the bearing capacity of the mountain below, and can not be built in the mountain with cracks
Li De is ready to move. He uses magic to blow out a cistern on the hillside. This kind of thing suits his taste very much.”I'll do it myself, and I can't go there in vain.”
”Go ahead and dig for gold. It will take more time for the blacksmith to make water pipes.”
the appearance of tap water is undoubtedly a big step forward in the progress of human civilization.
People save countless time every day because of the convenience of tap water.
The farm is Lee's first experiment. When it is stable, he will spread the tap water to the whole city.
And in the future, if possible, he plans to use tap water for farming, just like a modern farm, where you can turn on the tap and water automatically.
