Chapter 63 Good News
The Spring Festival is coming soon. Xiao Tianjian has basically seen the situation in Dongye Town. Under his promotion, whether it is the construction of Shuangfengzhai, the repair of the ironmaking furnace in Dongye Town, or the mining of various mining sites, it can be said that there has been a great rise in Dongye Town. The project began to work in full swing.
And after this trip, Fan Yutong has been following Xiao Tianjian, seeing what Xiao Tianjian has done and remembering it in her heart. She can't help admiring Xiao Tianjian even more.
Fan Yutong looked at what Xiao Tianjian had done these days, so he no longer suspected that Xiao Tianjian was an ambitious person, but also a very capable person. In his eyes, all kinds of miscellaneous affairs became so simple. He raised his hands lightly to solve many problems that were difficult for ordinary people to solve. Untied.
And he now occupies such a place in the south of Yangcheng County. If this person can't achieve a career in the future, then Fan Yutong will not believe what she says.
In this way, she also confirmed that she wanted to lobby her father Fan Yaoshan and secretly cooperated with Xiao Tianjian. After returning to Lianhuazhai, she planned to write another letter to explain the necessity of cooperation between the Fan family and Xing Tianjun to her father Fan Yaoshan again, and strive to dispel Fan Yaoshan's doubts and make him start contacting Xing Tianjun as soon as possible. .
On the way back to Lianhuazhai with Fan Yutong, Xiao Tianjian made a short stop in Dongye Town. In just a few days, the old stove took a group of craftsmen to clean up and repair two small and medium-sized iron furnaces, and immediately filled them and began to make iron. He was taking some of his men to check a large one in Dongye Town. The abandoned iron furnace, and took out the waste residue in the iron furnace and began to repair it. It is estimated that it will not take a few days for this big iron furnace to be put back into use. In order to help the old furnace repair the iron furnace, Xiao Tianjian also transferred several masons, masons, carpenters and cobblers from Shuangfeng Village to the old furnace. The head helps, so that the work of the old stove is like a fish in water, and it dries much faster.
And a group of people transferred from miners have also settled here. Anyway, there are many abandoned houses in Dongye Town. It's no problem to clean up and settle these people at all. Even if it's very cold in winter, there is enough coal here to make a fire for heating, and the frost does not hurt people, and these The miners who come here know more or less about some iron-making skills. Naturally, there will be no problem if they change their careers to iron-making. Therefore, there will be no shortage of manpower in Dongye Town for a short time. It can be expected that the iron volume will increase significantly after the Spring Festival.
Looking here, Xiao Tianjian turned to Shuangfeng Village again. Zhang Chao's action was also very fast. In addition to the fact that the things in the village did not stop, the construction of the wall and gate of the village has also begun. In addition to the existing craftsmen of Xing Tianjun, the local craftsmen were also sent here to participate in this project. Moreover, the people around now in the agricultural leisure season do not want to be hungry in the winter. In the cold weather, after hearing about Xing Tianjun's recruitment, they have also gathered to Shuangfengzhai with shovels, picks, poles, baskets, bamboo baskets and other tools, and devoted themselves to the construction of walls for Shuangfengzhai. For a short time. In between, as many as three or four thousand people gathered.
These people make splints to make splints, quarrying, and digging soil, which are uniformly dispatched by Lin Baotian. Zhang Chao supports him behind his back, so that the progress of the project is not bad now.
And these ordinary people who came to help, firstly, are grateful to Xing Tianjun for helping them in addition to the great harm, the second is to be grateful to Xing Tianjun for giving them to divide their fields. Third, because they come here to work, they can give them two full meals a day. Even if they don't have money to eat two full meals this year, which is also good for these ordinary people. The choice is more said by Xing Tianjun. In the future, if the officers and soldiers come to suppress it, the people do not want to be harmed by the officers and soldiers, and they can also avoid the Shuangfeng Village. So what else do the people have to say? However, all the strong workers basically came to Shuangfengzhai to help, and even some healthy women brought things to help, so that there was basically no shortage of engineering workers, and even a surplus.
And those who are not called to hire strong laborers were not idle a year ago. The old people, children and old ladies are all in the toilets, pigsty, corners, and behind the house in front of the village, looking for the earthen on the wall with small brooms everywhere, carefully sweeping it down and bagging it, and then carrying it to the collection that specializes to buy these earthen. The purchase point is sold on credit to the people of Xing Tianjun.
In a short period of time, the problem of nitrified earth was basically solved. A truck of nitrified earth began to be transported from various villages to Shuangfeng Village. Gao Cheng personally brought several apprentices to check in the village, check the quality of the ash, and graded it, so that the price was given to the people to pay.
And Zhang Chao also sent several local people who had a good relationship with Xing Tianjun to take the people of Xing Tianjun to Yangcheng County, Zezhou and other places to purchase sulfur to meet the needs of gunpowder preparation.
After Yang Changshou got Xiao Tianjian's approval for the prototype bird's, he also began to switch to the stage of final production and began to build all kinds of molds needed for bird's. As long as these molds are in place, the work of creating bird's can be carried out quickly. In short, after the New Year's strike, for Xing Tianjun There will be gratifying changes. At that time, many of the shortcomings of Xing Tianjun can be improved by itself.
After simply learning about the situation here with Zhang Chao, Xiao Tianjian immediately set out and rushed back to Lianhuazhai. After all, there are still three days to celebrate the Spring Festival. Although such a festival is no longer important, for people, they still want to celebrate and ask for good luck for next year. So before the arrival of such a most important festival for Chinese people, even Xiao Tianjian himself was a little ready to relax for a day or two during the Spring Festival.
On their way back to Lianhuazhai, they met several people who came out of Lianhuazhai. These people were sent by Luo Li, who temporarily led the affairs of Lianhuazhai, to find Xiao Tianjian. As soon as they saw Xiao Tianjian and his entourage, a scout immediately said to Xiao Tianjian, "Feng sentin general and Feng Xi have returned to the village!" Yan Xiao and they have also come back!"
Xiao Tianjian was overjoyed and immediately asked, "So how did Yan sentry harvest them this time?"
The person who reported the news nodded with joy on his face and said, "The harvest is quite good! There are more than a hundred big cars that have been snatched back, which are full of grain and cloth. Now Mr. Jin is taking people to take inventory and put them into the warehouse!"
Xiao Tianjian breathed a long sigh of relief. Yan Chongxi and others have helped him a lot this time. A large amount of food is needed everywhere now. With this batch of food, their Xing Tianjun can basically completely stand here.
So he rushed to Lianhuazhai with his men and Fan Yutong.
As soon as he entered the stockade, Xiao Tianjian saw that it was bustling. A large number of carts lined up from the outside of the stockade to the inside of the stockade, and lanterns were also hung on the door of the stockade in the stockade. There was a lot of festive atmosphere, and everyone he saw was happy, which showed that Yan Chong was happy with them. When I came back, I did get a lot of food, which reassured everyone.
Liu Yaoben rushed to meet Xiao Tianjian with a group of little buddies. As soon as they met, he shouted, "Little guys, give the general a New Year's greeting!" I wish the general will show our ambitions next year! Everything you want will come true!"
"Haha! OK! With your good words, we will definitely make a big plan next year! Haha! I will personally reward each of you with a red envelope later! Go down, all!" Xiao Tianjian liked these little guys very much. He rubbed their brains one by one, patted them with a smile and let them do their job.
These teenagers were also very obedient. They ran away with Liu Yaoben and ran to find a place to help. Xiao Tianjian asked Fan Yutong to go back to Houzhai to rest first, and immediately walked to the Juyi Hall with his iron head.
When the generals heard the news of Xiao Tianjian's return, they also rushed to the Juyi Hall to see Xiao Tianjian. Xiao Tianjian glanced at the Juyi Hall and saw that the people sent had returned here, so he nodded and saluted the crowd. Fortunately, after a lot of excitement, the people sat down and began to report this to Xiao Tianjian. The situation for a period of time.
