Chapter 783 Shocking rice yield per mu

The next thing everyone pays attention to is the threshing speed of the five pedal rice threshers and the five mixing buckets.

Then everyone was stunned by the speed of the pedal rice thresher again, because it took only a quarter of an hour for the five pedal rice threshers to thresh out the whole acre of rice!
You must know that it usually takes nearly a day for five such strong laborers to thresh so much rice with a mixing bucket!
At this time, you can also see another group of threshing using a mixing bucket. At this moment, they are sweating profusely and only threshing a small area of ​​rice. Nearly [-]% of the rice in this mu of field is It was the pedal rice thresher that did the threshing, and the five normal laborers who used the pedal rice thresher seemed to be much more relaxed than the five people who used the mixing bucket to thresh the rice. No gasps.

Seeing this result, the people on the scene were all dumbfounded. It is said that there is no harm without comparison. They have witnessed the difference between threshing with a pedal rice thresher and threshing with a mixing bucket. The big guys love this pedal rice thresher The speed is amazing.

At this time, Dong Yuwen also took people to see the effect of the two groups of threshing again. Sure enough, the paddy threshing with the pedal rice thresher was dozens of times as much as the paddy threshing with the mixing bucket.

Seeing the huge difference in the number of threshing grains this time, Master Liao, who is proficient in farming and has always been calm, was brought by Dong Yuwen this time.

In front of Dong Yuwen, he couldn't help but yelled excitedly and asked Shen Jianwan and the others to quickly weigh the rice that the two groups had threshed. After that, they will be able to know the yield of this acre of paddy field, and this is what they value most!
And Master Liao's words can be regarded as expressing the aspirations of the big guys at this time, even Dong Yuwen did not object to Master Liao's words, so after Dong Yuwen's order, Shen Jianwan and the others began to criticize the rice. Weigh it.

The first thing to be weighed is the weight of the rice that has been crushed by the mixing bucket, because the few strong laborers in more than two quarters of an hour have only crushed dozens of rice, so the rice will come out as soon as we weigh it.

However, the rice threshed by the pedal rice thresher was not weighed so quickly. I saw that five loads of [-] catties of rice had been weighed, and there was still a pedal rice thresher that did not weigh the rice. Quantity, everyone's breathing became heavy.

Especially Master Liao, he had estimated that Shen Jianwan and the others' rice output would be around [-] catties, but now that the [-] catties of rice have been weighed, there is still an entire rice thresher left that has not been weighed. He was so excited that he couldn't breathe!

So under the attention of the audience, Dong Yuwen's hands were trembling and he waved to the weighers again, and then they finally began to weigh the weight of the last box of rice, and when the number came out, they would know the weight of the acre. The yield per mu of rice has increased!

After finally weighing the last basket of rice, and following the weigher all the way with a notebook to record the weight of the rice, Master Gao calculated the total weight of the rice, and the notebook in his hand was in his hand. He was so excited that he almost fell into the field, but fortunately, he was rescued in time by a yamen servant next to him, which saved the book from falling into the field.

"My... my lord, this... this mu of land actually has a yield of seven... 790 catties, and... there are still... nine catties less, so it's [-] catties!" Mr. Gao was trembling when he replied.

Except for Shen Jianwan and the others who can multiply and divide quickly and mentally calculate this amount, they have already calculated it. Dong Yuwen and the others only knew the definite yield after listening to Master Gao's calculations. Nearly [-] catties, not only Dong Yuwen was too excited to speak, but Liu Xiancheng and others beside him were already trembling with excitement.

Then the onlookers were completely shocked when they heard these yields. They had never heard of the rice yield of 790 kilograms per mu, which was nearly [-] kilograms, after living for so long!

For a while, after Master Gao's words fell, the scene was completely silent, and everyone couldn't recover from the shocking rice yield for a long time.

In the end, Dong Yuwen was the first to react and said to Master Gao: "Master Gao, are you sure you did not make a mistake in your calculation?"

Master Gao tremblingly said: "My... my lord, I have used the abacus three times, and I can't be wrong."

Hearing this answer, Dong Yuwen finally had to believe that Shen Jianwan's rice output per acre was really 790 catties, which was nearly [-] catties, because they weighed just now. I will weigh it again later, this weight must be prepared, and if Master Gao has not made a mistake in the calculation, then the output will not be bad!

"Could it be that some of us misremembered the number when recording the weight?" Liu Xiancheng couldn't help but suggested that it wasn't that he wanted to dismantle the stage, but that the rice yield of [-] catties to nearly [-] catties per mu was really unbelievable Well, it's okay if the news is accurate, but if it's wrong, they and the others will suffer.

As for Liu Xiancheng's worry, Dong Yuwen naturally thought of it a long time ago, so he organized another weighing again under the watchful eyes of everyone.

This time they weighed each basket three times, of which Shen Jianwan and the others weighed once, and the official government servants weighed twice, and the recorded numbers were only written under the witness of the big guy after repeated confirmation by the chief secretary. Down this number.

So once again more accurate and careful weighing and calculation, Dong Yuwen even calculated the final number himself, and the result was that Master Gao's first calculation did not make a mistake, and the yield per mu of rice in this mu It is indeed 790 a catty!
After confirming the yield per mu, the people present became even more excited. Then, in order to confirm that the yield of this mu of rice was not an accident, Dong Yuwen then asked Shen Jianwan for permission and they continued to harvest the rice of the five mu field.

Because Dong Yuwen brought a lot of yamen servants, and even the mayor of the town, Lu, asked for more than a dozen yamen servants from the town's yamen to come to help, and then countless people who were onlookers also volunteered to help, so again In addition to the part-time labor that Shen Jianwan and the others hired, the rice in the five-acre field was harvested in less than an hour.

During the period, Shen Jian saw that there were many harvesters in the evening, so she asked Shen Jie and the others to take people to bring ten more pedal rice threshers to the field without Dong Yuwen's orders.

So while harvesting and threshing, the five acres of rice were harvested and the threshing work was completed at the same time!
