Chapter 60 Side Knocking

Ironmaking has not started for the time being, so the manufacture of fire can only start later. Now if you want to increase the defensive strength of the base, you can only start with cold weapons.

Zhang Yang looked at the duck that fell to the ground and picked it up. "The roast duck is gone. If you don't eat it, I'll eat it alone."

"Eat, why don't you eat? I'm a hard-working person!" Shi Xin sighed and then got off the watchtower.

Tang He also followed, and he also moved his index finger.

Soon, the fragrance came to my nose.

"Hey, don't grab it. That fat duck leg is mine."

......

It's time for lunch. Zhang Yang came to the busy construction site. The cauldron had been placed, and Shide was commanding the workers to master the skills.

Next to the construction site, there were also two cauldrons for cooking. The pot was steaming hot, and the fragrance of rice porridge floated out.

Four village women are on fire. They are specializing in cooking for the workers.

"Is the meal ready?" Zhang Yang asked.

"Well, it's almost done." A village woman replied.

Zhang Yang lifted the lid of the pot and saw the rice porridge with bubbles, which was very thick. From time to time, he saw the vegetable leaves rolling in it. This should be regarded as vegetable porridge.

Zhang Yang picked up a blue and white porcelain bowl from the side and filled it himself.

It was steaming, and the rice porridge had been cooked. It was white and thick. After blowing, he took a sip.

Salt has been put in it, which is a little salty. "Well, it's good, delicious!" Zhang Yang said while drinking. After a while, a bowl of porridge came down.

"It's time to eat! Let's take a break first! It's time for dinner!" Zhang Yang shouted at the people who were working.

"Oh, it's time to eat!" Everyone put down their work and ran over happily.

When you eat every day, it is the happiest time.

"Are you satisfied with this meal?" Zhang Yang looked at everyone holding a bowl of porridge and asked.

"It's good. It's much better than outside. You can be full."

"Don't worry, our base has just started, and everyone can only eat rice porridge. However, as long as everyone works hard, they will learn everything they just taught you. Next month, I promise that everyone can not only eat rice porridge, but also eat meat every day!"

"Wow, can you still eat meat? That's great!"

"I only ate half a catty of meat during the Spring Festival, and I can eat meat every day next month?"

Zhang Yang looked at everyone's smiling expressions and was very satisfied. What do people need most? The hope for the future and the desire for a better life will make them have dreams and love for a better life, so that they will cherish everything here, regard this place as their home, work hard and work hard.

The work here has been almost arranged. Zhang Yang remembered what Li Bosheng said. He found saltpetre and sulfur at Shaobo Station. Anyway, it will take a few days to transport salt from the salt farm. It's better to go there first. If there are really these things, then ship some back. There is also iron ore, which is just on the way. We will be transported back together and piled on the island first. Next time we come, we will start this project of ironmaking and gunpowder.

After lunch, Zhang Yang called Li Bosheng, Lu Zhen and Shi Xin.

"Everyone's main task now is to go back to the ship to rest. In the evening, we have something to do." Zhang Yang said.

"What's the matter? Aren't we going straight back?" Shi Xin asked, he was still thinking about going back to make a crossbow.

"Ber Sheng," Zhang Yang shouted, "Tay it to everyone, where are those things?"

Li Bosheng must refer to those saltpeter and sulfur.

"We go west to Gaoyou Lake, and then south, probably on a hill south of Jijiazhuang." Li Bosheng said.

"It's another more than 100 miles of waterway. It's good to sail this evening and arrive at Gaoyou Lake tomorrow morning." Shi Xin said dissatisfiedly.

In this night when there is no lighting and the boat can only rely on the light of the stars and the moon, it is very troublesome and a little careless. If you take the wrong waterway, it will waste time, and if it is heavy, it will strand the ship. Therefore, ordinary boaters avoid boating at night.

If only there was a night vision device! See things clearly at night. Zhang Yang thought to himself, but it was high-tech. In this era, even if he knew the principle of the night vision device, he could not make it. It was difficult for a skillful woman to cook without rice. The clever graduate student had no materials but could only talk on paper.

"Okay, let's rest for two hours. Let's leave early in the afternoon!" Zhang Yang said.

Zhang Yang is lying in the cabin, but he can't sleep. I don't know what's going on with Ruohan?

...............

"Sister Han, you are so beautiful. You are just a hibiscus. Your brother Shicheng can marry you, which is also a blessing from his previous life." A voice said quietly, and there seemed to be a trace of jealousy in the words.

"Where, according to my sister, if you say so, it will make me feel ashamed. Look at you, you were originally a young lady, but you could do big business like a man, which made me admire you." Another voice said.

After Zhang Yang left, He Zhaoyi changed the man's dress and put on a long skirt, which was suddenly full of tenderness. Liu Ruohan's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, He Zhaoyi, who was dressed as a man, changed into a woman's woman's clothes. She was also as beautiful as a fairy and extraordinary.

The two of them are already close to each other.

At this moment, He Zhaoyi is holding a wooden comb and combing Liu Ruohan's hair. Her long hair and three thousand green silks have turned into lovesickness.

If it was Brother Shicheng who combed his hair, how good it would be!

Liu Ruohan didn't let He Zhaoyi comb her hair. Anyway, she was also a guest. How could she serve herself like a servant?

But He Zhaoyi said for no reason, so he pulled her down, picked up the comb, and combed it up.

The relationship between the two is a little closer. The two have a family relationship. There are still many topics between women and women. Although one is a rich young lady and the other is the daughter of a poor salt household, Liu Ruohan has been taught by his father since he was a child. He is also a scholar. He is knowledgeable and reasonable, but later his family fell down.

"Sister Han, are you familiar with your brother Shicheng?" He Zhaoyi suddenly asked.

"Sister Yi, don't laugh at me. He's him, I'm me. Where is my brother Shicheng? If you want to call, you can also call him!" Liu Ruohan said.

"Brother Shicheng, do you have any other living other than to help the salt farm?" He Zhaoyi suddenly came up with such a sentence.

Liu Ruohan's heart suddenly woke up. Just now, He Zhaoyi poured so much soup for herself. One by one, Sister Han shouted so affectionately. It turned out that it was to inquire about the details of Brother Shicheng.

She still had a smile on her face: "I'm a weak woman, not like Yi's sister. How can I know if Brother Shicheng has anything else to do besides carrying salt?"

When answering, don't answer yes or no, but don't know. There is any room for maneuver. If you want to change your words in the future, you can change it.

"Do you know what other business friends Brother Shicheng has?"

"Except for his salt-lifting brothers, I'm not clear about anything else. What's wrong? Do you want me to ask for you? Ruo Han asked.

"No, no need." He Zhaoyi's hand holding the comb also trembled a little. If I could ask, I would have asked myself. Do I still need to ask you?

If you can't make a plan, take another plan.

After combing her hair, He Zhaoyi took a delicate step and asked as she walked, "Where is the kitchen?" Shall I ask my sister to cook for you tonight?

"No, no need." Liu Ruohan immediately chased after him.

The kitchen is in the outer room. He Zhaoyi has walked to the front of the big pot, opened the ceramic jar next to it, and looked at it.

Inside is a large piece of sea salt.

It's not the imagined refined salt. It seems that Liu Ruohan really doesn't know about refined salt. Why does Zhang Shicheng have refined salt and not give it to the future wife?

He Zhaoyi finally died and wanted to find out the secret of refined salt from Liu Ruohan, which seemed impossible.
