A good helper for work–Wheelbarrow

A wheelbarrow is a small hand-propelled load-bearing vehicle, usually with just one wheel, designed to be pushed and guided by a single person using two handles at the rear.

A wheelbarrow is a garden tool that’s used to transport piles of dirt, weeds, or any other small load.

The wheelbarrow doesn’t appear in the west until the Middle Ages and in fact the earliest evidence suggests that it was first invented by the Chinese nearly 2000 years ago, with the earliest image coming from a carved brick in a tomb dated to 118AD.
