By the Qingshui River, the automatic water wheel had become a spectacle in Qing'an County.
Every day, a large number of city residents, young and old, braved the scorching sun to come and watch the excitement, marveling at the automatic water-drawing "big wheel".
Whether they were farmers outside the city or citizens within, no one wished to see the rice fields fail.
Especially with the current surging rice prices, everyone hoped for the drought to end and for a bountiful rice harvest.
Otherwise, forget about rice, even mixed grains would be unaffordable!
Because the effect of the first automatic water wheel was excellent, the Government Office officially tasked the Official Manufacture Workshop to swiftly build ten water wheels of the same kind.
Ensuring irrigation for the farmlands along both banks of the Qingshui River!
After this news spread, rice prices in the county town saw a slight drop.
