A storm was coming.
Luo Yong stood on the second floor of Xu's guest house and looked at the billowing dark clouds coming from the other side of the mountain.
He also felt that a storm was coming. :3w The weather has been getting warmer day by day recently.
After all, the lighting in the hall on the first floor of Xu's guest house is still not as bright as the second floor, so they moved their classes to the second floor.
The second floor is just a big earthen platform with no walls on all sides.
It just has railings half a person's height and a straw shed built on top.
It can provide some protection from the wind and rain.
It's too cold in winter and the second floor can't.
Basically no one goes here to burn the kang, but in summer, everyone prefers to do activities here.
That afternoon, halfway through Luo Yong's class, a large dark cloud suddenly came over the sky.
The air was filled with moisture, and the wind was filled with the smell of rain.
Luo Yong suddenly felt something in his heart, a storm was coming.
He can avoid the storm in front of him in this thatched shed, but how can he avoid the storm that is brewing in Chang'an City?
If you just rely on hiding, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape.
You might as well face the difficulties and meet those people face to face for a while.
Even if the chance of winning is not high, it is better than sitting back and waiting for death.
It’s late April on the lunar calendar.
This year’s spring sowing in Lishi County has come to an end, and the summer harvest has not yet begun.
Heng Yu and his son finally made the first foot-operated threshing machine.
Although it was mainly made of wood and bamboo and only used a few iron parts, this threshing machine was not easy to pedal at all.
It was no worse than the one used by Luo Yong in the 21st century.
The machine ran very smoothly.
The roller whirred as it rotated.
I folded a few branches and tried it on it.
The leaves on the branches were beaten to pieces in just a few seconds. fall.
Luo Yong was very satisfied with the threshing machine and personally sent it to the county seat and to Governor Hao, asking him to help present it to the emperor.
Governor Hao was naturally more than willing to do such a favor.
He had previously heard that Luo Sanlang was tinkering with something again this time, and even invited a blacksmith from the city.
He thought it was another one like Yan Erfei.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a threshing machine.
In Hao's opinion, the significance of the threshing machine was a hundred times greater than that of Yan Erfei.
He was very excited and said that he would go to Chang'an City in person to dedicate this to the emperor, and asked Luo Yong to go with him.
Luo Yong didn't want to go.
He still had things to arrange.
Besides, many people in Chang'an City were worried about not being able to find others at this time.
To send someone to their doorstep at this time would not be like beating a dog with a meat bun.
In the end, Governor Hao went to Chang'an City by himself, and the whole group drove a carriage.
The carriage was not for Governor Hao to ride in, but was equipped with the threshing machine.
Governor Hao himself rode a horse and ran all the way to Chang'an City with his men.
As for Luo Yong, at this time, he had asked some merchants and hawkers who often come and go to help him spread the news, saying that Xipo Village is recruiting blacksmiths and carpenters, with favorable wages, food, accommodation and classes.
Not only can they learn to recognize He can read Chinese characters and learn arithmetic.
For a time, many craftsmen flocked to Xipo Village, many of whom were educated like Heng Yu and Yin Gai.
On the one hand, Luo Yong placed the people in the courtyard that his disciples had built before, and on the other hand, he built the workhouse.
The place was chosen in an open space between the Xu family's guest house and the Luo family's sheepfold.
Work sheds were also set up in that area.

These craftsmen worked under the thatched sheds there during the day and went back to the village to sleep at night.
In the evening, they were taught three meals a day, and their food was better than that in the cement workshop.
Slightly better.
The workhouse was built not far from the thatched hut, and the people responsible for repairing the house were all villagers hired by Luo Yong from nearby villages.
Those craftsmen would occasionally run over to take a look, and from time to time they would give some advice, as if They all look like they plan to stay there for a long time.
With the previous successful experience of Hengyu and his son, and the knowledge of these craftsmen themselves, the production of the first batch of threshing machines went very smoothly.
When the first batch of threshing machines were made, Luo Yong first sent one to the village, and then asked Xiaohe Village and other surrounding villages to move one to each village.
The villagers in those villages are quite embarrassed.
This threshing machine looks so sophisticated.
It must cost a lot of labor to make one.
Besides, there are several iron parts on it.
Just those few iron lumps. , it’s worth a lot of money.
Sorry, I'm sorry, but these people happily took the machine to their own villages after all.
This is a threshing machine.
It is very useful for farmers like them.
If you step on it, the roller on it will whir around.
If you want to thresh a handful of millet, you can finish it in a few or two times.
With this thing , everyone doesn’t know how much effort they will save during harvesting this summer.
"Zou Lizheng, how much does this threshing machine cost?"
In Xiaohe Village, after the villagers carried the threshing machine back, they began to think about the price.
They brought back such a large and sophisticated machine without paying a penny.
Thinking about it, they felt a little strange. .
"You definitely can't make it without Sanguan money.
Then you have to find a reliable craftsman to do it."
After all, Zou Lizheng had been working as a liar for so many years, and he worried about tax collection every year.
After looking at a machine like this for a few times, he could probably figure it out in his mind.
"Ouch!"
Immediately, some people started to groan in pain.
They had previously thought that if this threshing machine was not too expensive and could fly as fast as a swallow, they would pool a few dollars from each household and try to get rid of it.
Luo Sanlang couldn't even get his capital back.
But when I heard the price, it was three guans.
Although the population of their Xiaohe Village was a little larger than that of Xipo Village, it was not much more.
The three guans, if divided equally among each household, would cost hundreds of dollars.
Although the people in their village earned some money by making straw paper and linen paper, how much paper would they have to make to earn back nearly a hundred cash?
"Since Luo Sanlang said he doesn't want money, then don't worry about it."
Zou Lizheng said again.
"How can this make me feel sad", but they feel that the money should still be given.
There are so many villages, and Luo Sanlang's family fortune will not be emptied by then.
"It doesn't matter.
He didn't ask you to tell your relatives and friends in other villages and ask them to go to Xipo Village to carry the threshing machine.
Just go ahead and tell them."
Zou Lizheng said.
According to what Zou Lizheng thought, Luo Sanlang must have some plans this time, otherwise he would not give away things so generously for nothing.
Although Luo Sanlang is not a stingy person, but giving things to people for free like this is really Just the first time.
Everyone was happy but felt that something was wrong, but they still informed all other villages where their relatives lived as Luo Yong had explained before.

In addition, Luo Yong also asked the merchants and hawkers who often come and go to spread the news along the road, asking those villages closer to Xipo Village to come and move the threshing machine themselves, and let them wait at home with peace of mind for those who are far away.
Then Luo Sanlang will ask his disciples to send them to various villages along the way.
Which direction do most of these merchants and hawkers go to Chang'an City?
So soon, many villages on both sides of the official road leading to Chang'an City got the news that Luo Sanlang was going to send them a threshing machine.
Each village had one, and many people even ran to those who had been divided.
When I went to the threshing machine to see what was going on, no one who saw it said that it was not easy to use.
At the same time, Governor Hao and others had arrived in Chang'an City and presented the threshing machine to His Majesty the Emperor.
Li Shimin was very happy to get this threshing machine.
First there was the sixth grain, and then there was the threshing machine.
It was God's blessing to the Tang Dynasty.
He seemed to be able to see a prosperous country in front of him, and the people were no longer poor.
The treasury is no longer empty, the troops and horses are strong, and foreigners dare not invade The next day happened to be a great dynasty.
After discussing the government affairs, the emperor had the threshing machine brought up and asked Governor Hao, who entered the hall with the threshing machine, to explain to everyone the function of the threshing machine. usage.
His Majesty the Emperor was originally full of confidence, and Hao Jianping was also full of expectations.
Unexpectedly, the reaction of those in the court was not what they expected.
Li Shimin has seen this kind of thing a lot.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
Today should be a happy event, but these people's reactions are so weird, and their attitudes are so unified.
Needless to say, they must have been angry behind their backs. , this is to rectify the moth.
"Your Majesty, I have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not."
At this time, a minister raised his hand and spoke. "" Li Shimin's eyes swept over indifferently, and he didn't say anything to him, whether he should say it or not.
Anyway, since this guy has stood up, he must say it.
Let's see what he plans to say later, but he also As you can guess, most of today's matter will be directed at Na Luo Sanlang.
"That Luo Sanlang is really weird."
The guy opened his mouth and beat Luo Yong into a non-human being: "Don't you think it's weird that he, a teenage country boy, can actually create such exquisite things?
" "" There were whispers in the hall.
These ministers had all kinds of reactions, but at this sensitive moment, they had better not get out of their way, otherwise they would offend others for nothing, and they might even be punished in the end.
Get involved.
Hao Jianping was still unable to react at this time.
He had come to Beijing to deliver the threshing machine with great enthusiasm, but now it was like someone poured a bucket of cold water on him.
"It's just nonsense."
The speaker was Ershu Bai and his father, who are officials in the government.
They have seen this kind of thing a lot, so they can react quickly after all.
"Huh, who knows, your Bai family has a close relationship with Naluo Sanlang."
Someone immediately said loudly over there.
"Are we, the Bai family, going to be burned as monsters?"
The father and son went into battle.
At this time, Uncle Bai's eldest brother also stood up and spoke.
"I see that Luo Sanlang is obviously a blessed man, how could he become a monster?"
At this time, other people began to take sides.
In the court, few people fought alone, and most of them had their own factions.
See When someone on your side suffers a loss, you have to step forward.
Otherwise, no one will help you next time you are unlucky.
"You see he can do a lot of arithmetic and write some weird words.
It's obvious that there is something wrong with him."

“What’s the problem?”
"I think he is basically a lich from another country, but he just borrowed Narasaburo's body."
"Didn't I let a certain Taoist priest see it before?"
"After all, the Taoist Master is a human being, not an immortal.
He must be a man of Taoism who is not as advanced as that monster."
"You are obviously just talking out of thin air, it is simply shameless."
"You are shameless" As soon as the war started, more and more people were soon involved.
Many people who originally planned to be neutral spectators unknowingly joined the war.
There was no way.
The atmosphere was so hot that I accidentally got aroused.
Not to mention, there are many people who want to kill Luo Yong, but there are also many people who stand up to defend him.
After all, even the Bai family is said to have a close friendship with Luo Sanlang.
There are young people who went to Xipo Village to learn arithmetic.
Don't let them be dragged into it for no reason.
Even if they don't suffer a loss, they have to stand up and defend Luo Sanlang now.
Besides, many people are grateful to Luo Sanlang for teaching them arithmetic.
They usually don’t want to be enemies with those who oppose Luo Sanlang.
Now it seems that Luo Sanlang is about to be slandered as a monster.
Naturally, it is no longer easy to just sit back and ignore it.
There was a lot of noise in the hall, but His Majesty the Emperor on the high seat seemed a little tepid.
Li Shimin just sat there and watched these people bickering.
When the fight was over, it was over.
He didn't express any opinions, let alone make any conclusion.
Then the morning meeting ended in a hazy way.
The emperor did not express his position, and everyone felt a little unsure, especially those who had jumped the most before.
And now that this matter has begun, we must not let it go easily.
Na Luo Coffin Board is not easy to mess with.
If we can't kill him immediately this time, there will be endless troubles in the future.
Among them, the one who jumped the most and had the most positive attitude was Wu Yushi.
Anyway, he had already offended Luo Yong severely before.
If this hidden danger cannot be eliminated this time, when he gets up one day in the future, he will It’s difficult to get started.
In the days that followed, there was no rest in the court.
Even among the people, many people knew about this matter, and some businessmen took the news to other places.
"Some senior officials in Chang'an City said that Luo Sanlang was a monster and wanted to capture him and beat him to death."
On the official road leading to Lishi County, the news was also spreading quietly.
The news spread further and further, further and further north.
Even before it entered the boundaries of Shizhou, many places had already started to explode.
Why should Luo Sanlang be captured and beaten as a monster?
What's the matter?
The threshing machine in our village hasn't been allocated yet.
The author has something to say: There are still nutritional solutions that haven’t been delivered, so hurry up, there will be a big sale in the last hour. gd1806102:
