The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm: Chapter 78 The female matchmaker chooses to farm 27
Chapter 78 As a fine female matchmaker chooses to farm (27)
Xu Yin visited them once halfway, and was very happy to see that they had an orderly division of labor and were highly motivated to work.
The blueprint of the juicer was given to Carpenter Cen early in the morning, and he will arrange everyone's process.
She didn't worry about whether the drawings would be circulated, anyway, the juicer finally worked, relying on the electric motor in her hand.
The same is true for the waterwheel. If the carpenter leaks the drawings and someone with a heart takes them to make a waterwheel with a mortise and tenon structure, it can be used, but there is no motor, and manpower is needed to turn the water.
If someone really built a human-powered water truck because of this, that would be a good thing, at least it would be much more efficient than shoulder-to-shoulder hand-carrying, and it could be regarded as a way of promotion.
However, it's one thing that she doesn't mind, but it's another matter if someone among the carpenters secretly uses her blueprints to sell money and favors.
So she has been investigating these carpenters in private, and they all seem to be good so far, honest and hardworking.
They are serious and responsible for their work, and Xu Yin, the boss, will not be stingy.
After going back, they sent someone to bring over a basket of watermelons, and asked the mother-in-law to soak one in the well water every day, and opened it in the afternoon to cool them off from the heat.
Eating a sweet and juicy watermelon, I heard that it was a melon seed brought in from outside the Great Wall, and only the nobles in Beijing could afford it. The carpenters were very moved:
"When I came to Nanman, I enjoyed a blessing instead."
"Working with the princess, the benefits are great."
Carpenter Cen smiled honestly, and thought to himself that this is so good. When the juicer is built, and there will be a red seal and silver reward, that will be a great benefit.
…
Mines and farms are gradually getting on the right track. The cement road outside Fucheng is said to have reached Yongxian County. The juicer is still a pile of incomplete parts. It takes a while to assemble, and the sugarcane is still young.
The growth period of sugarcane is relatively long, even if the temperature and light are sufficient in Nanban, it takes about seven or eight months. Planted in this season, it will not be harvested until around the new year at the earliest.
Sweet potatoes and potatoes are not in harvest season either.
Xu Yin discussed with Yan Kejin, wanting to take advantage of this relatively free time to go out of Fucheng.
"Let's set off now and come back before autumn, so as not to delay the autumn harvest."
"It's okay to delay, you need to do it yourself for the autumn harvest? What's the use of raising so many people!"
King Jinnan disapproved and said that he was in a hurry, but he was actually ready to go out with the princess at any time.
During this period, he assessed and promoted several confidantes of the Yanzi team, who will be in charge of iron ore development and iron forging in the future.
There is also the production of small parts such as iron nails, screws and nuts, and the transportation and mixing of materials required for cement are also assigned to special personnel.
The large-scale kiln at the kaolin mine has been built, whether it is bricks and tiles for building houses or white and clear fine porcelain, they can be fired at any time.
The confidantes are so busy all day long that their heels hit the back of their heads, and they don’t care if they scold him over and over again as their master. Wouldn’t it be comfortable to be a hands-off shopkeeper and accompany the princess on trips at any time?
The butler thoughtfully packed a carriage of camping supplies.
In addition to tents, rice noodles, grain and oil, and various dry goods, cured meat and other ingredients, they also prepared a batch of hunting bows and arrows.
I was also worried that in case of rainy weather, I could not find dry firewood to make a fire, so I prepared charcoal and a large stove that could support a large iron pot.
Similar to the silver thread smokeless charcoal used in the small red clay stove for boiling tea and water, I have prepared several large bags.
This trip is for Yan Kejin in casual clothes, so it is not as mobilizing as it was when he went south. He only ordered eight guards, and they all wore ordinary clothes.
As for whether or not the dark guards brought them with them, Xu Yin did not know.
As far as these eight bodyguards are concerned, it is said that in order to fight for the opportunity to follow this time, they even fought a group arena.
"But really?" Xu Yin asked Wang Ye curiously, "It can be seen that they love Wang Ye very much."
Yan Kejin: "..."
Do you want to tell the truth? It's not that they love him so much, they obviously feel that the tasks he assigned are too heavy and busy, so they rushed to travel.
"Hmm." He chose to smile without answering.
Xu Yin imitated him and streamlined his entourage, only bringing Dongxue and Caihe.
Several maids and guards wanted to accompany her on a trip, Xu Yin asked them to guess the winner.
"Don't be frustrated if it's not your turn, you guys will go next time. Nanban is so big, maybe we will travel once every six months in the future, there is always a chance."
Xu Yin considered that this could be included in the annual benefits of the servants of the palace.
It is like the recuperation travel arranged by those units with good conditions for employees in later generations.
"What do you think?" She asked Yan Kejin for advice.
Yan Kejin's eyebrows jumped when she heard it.
Those subordinates are only thinking about the good things of being lazy and not working, and they still give them public funds to travel and recuperate?
Good idea!
But it is rare for the princess to make a request to him, and it is impossible to reject it in one sentence. After thinking about it, she said: "Let's see when the time comes, whoever performs well will be brought out."
While speaking, he glanced at the eight guards who were looking at their noses and their hearts.
Xu Yin raised her eyebrows when she heard the words, and said to herself that this guy understands the competition mechanism. In later generations, it would be a pity not to be a leader in the system or open a 996 company as the boss.
Nurse Feng was not brought with her on this trip. She is older and experienced. With her in the backyard, Xu Yin feels that she can feel at ease.
Out of the city, there are green crops on both sides of the concrete road, and the vision can be seen far away. Occasionally, goshawks or seabirds fly by in the blue sky, adding a bit of dynamic beauty to the static nature.
Xu Yin propped her elbows on the edge of the window, supported her cheeks to appreciate the simple natural scenery, and squinted her eyes comfortably.
This is the correct way to start a vacation.
Except for the market day, there are not many horses and carriages on the road, and sometimes the journey is very long. They are just pedestrians, and there is no sense of congestion in the later generations.
Passing by a small village called Sanhua Village—
【Ding! Find Baigui County's special delicacy—Sanhua Wine, reward 100 energy points]
【Ding—Complete the exploration task of the prefecture of Baigui County, the random skills have arrived】
The Sanhua Wine in Sanhua Village helped her complete the task of exploring Fucheng.
Ignoring the rewards, I took Yan Kejin to the village to experience this wine.
According to the village chief, this wine was first brewed by an unknown man who was exiled here. The water from the Lingjiang River was used to stimulate the fragrance of rice, which is particularly strong.
Almost everyone in the older generation in the village knows how to brew, but they have never been out of Nanman, and the farthest they have only been to Fucheng.
In addition to the traffic problem, the main reason is that there is no surplus grain for wine making.
Xu Yin and his team lived in Sanhua Village for two days, and felt that the mountains and rivers here are beautiful and the villagers are very simple.
It doesn’t matter if you are poor. The cement road has already reached the town not far from the village. Sooner or later, this area will become rich.
Then discussed with Yan Kejin: "What do you think of us opening a brewery here?"
Yan Kejin pondered: "You can try it. The workshop workers can hire people from the village, and the salary depends on what they want, money and food."
Being recognized, Xu Yin was overjoyed: "You and I thought of something together! I thought so too. The Sanhua wine brewed will be shipped to the Central Plains with brown sugar and white sugar. It must be more popular than in Nanman."
