Swan-Neck Hoe A long time ago, the Chinese tried to invent a hoe that would work better than the one they had at the moment. Their goal was to invent a hoe that would allow farmers to hoe while standing in place without hurting the plant itself. They found their answer, the swan-neck hoe. The reason that it’s called the swan-neck hoe is because the hoe above the blade was curved like the neck of a swan. That is also how the swan-neck hoe allows farmers to farm while standing in place.

Iron Plowshare A Plowshare is the main cutting blade of a plow. It digs a shallow furrow, or trench when pulled by an Ox or a Horse. Iron Plowshare was an upgrade, not an invention just like the Swan-Neck Hoe. That is because before the Iron Plowshare was invented there were Stone Plowshares. The Chinese created Iron Plowshares because the stone ones didn’t dig deep enough furrows, or trenches.

Dragon-Spine Water Lift Before the Dragon-Spine Water Lift, fetching water was a backbreaking chore, mainly done by buckets.
