Aegon had read kingdom-building novels before, and they often described constructing things based on historical designs or modern innovations, but they never went into much detail.
It was understandable since too much explanation would become boring, but those books still gave him ideas to use.
The second method he thought of using was something he had read about in one of the books in his grandpa's library. It had been used by farmers for a long time, so he thought it would be practical for them here as well.
And making it was very easy.
In no time, a sweep arm made of wood was placed at the midsection where the steps ended. It would have been better at the bottom, but it would be quite problematic to transfer it elsewhere whenever the water level changed.
A gear connected it with the turning wheel, so when the arm was rotated horizontally by bulls or some other animal, it rotated the vertical gears of the turning wheel and pushed the water-filled bamboos upwards.
