Just a few days after the Beginning of Winter, the imperial court ordered the government to dig wells in a group of places, and the people complained endlessly.
The current situation is that in the first half of the month, the river will be able to be used for pedestrians. How can we dig it?
It will be useless to dig shallow. If there is a real drought next year, the shallow wells will inevitably dry up. Dig deeper into the fact that everyone will not celebrate the Chinese New Year this year
The imperial court forced the government to force the task. The local government told the people not to serve in the army next year and to use the labor services in advance, so that the people felt better.
When Zhu Wentian got the news, the prince sent good charcoal again. By the way, he said that it would have been better to inform him earlier.
Zhu Wentian definitely doesn’t believe it. If I told you last year, would you immediately arrange to stop lying to others?
This is what I got in exchange for drought, interplanting, multiple crops, rock sugar recipes, soap recipes, gourd cranes, silage, life-saving medicine, a hundred currently unavailable prescriptions, and livestock treatment methods. trust.
This is recognized based on the wealth of the first village in Ming Dynasty, not just a few words.
When there is a drought next spring, you can say in advance that in the fifth year of Hongwu, there will be a drought in Shandong, so let’s continue drilling wells
As for Xu Da’s expedition again, I didn’t think about it. I support giving him support, but I would rather wait for Ming to accumulate some strength and stop it first.
Zhu Wentian knew that he could only change the general situation now, otherwise he would change too much and the subsequent history would also change, except for natural disasters.
All natural disasters that can be recorded are major disasters, and you can inform them of any of them in advance if you are here.
If you change it to a small one, it depends on whether you have read the local county annals before. If you have not, you can only express regret.
No matter how smart or talented I am, there are still things I don’t know, and there are many. My life has a limit, but my knowledge has no limit. As long as there is no limit, there will be no limit.
Thinking like this, Zhu Wentian went to see the glass kiln. Today, glass will be fired. The stabilized furnace has been built, and all the tools and troughs for glass blowing have been completed.
Glassware is blown, and the fired glass is reheated. Some can be blown directly, and some require molds, which are the same as the molds used by sugar blowers.
The difference is that one has a higher temperature, one is edible, one needs to be annealed slowly, and one will melt when it is hot.
The village leader led some villagers to watch and burn colored glaze. It was surprising that his own village could burn such a good thing.
Liu glaze products are sold in Xuancheng and Dangtu. You can see them in gold and silver shops and large jewelry shops. The prices are expensive.
There are hairpins, bracelets, pendants, gourd-filled glass bottles, etc. Among them, the ones brought by foreigners look more beautiful.
Now that the village has money, I would like to buy it, but Hanhan won’t allow it.
Sure enough, if you really buy it, you will be as aggrieved as the little girl feels after buying rock candy.
Who would have thought that the village guards in the east and west villages could be so naive? It’s amazing.
Woof, woof woof, a dog barked. He frowned, and Zhu Wentian immediately fell silent and stood aside with a silly smile.
Not long after, Zhu Taiyi and four others came over, and the villagers immediately greeted them with smiles. In fact, they wanted them to leave quickly.
This is the area of the mountain temple, and the dogs around it bark whenever outsiders come.
Hanhan always teaches children to read and make things in the temple. He must not be discovered by others. When the dog barks, Hanhan pretends to be a fool and the children read by themselves.
"Chief, what are you busy with?" Zhu Taiyi seemed to feel the rejection in his warm smile.
Seeing the four people approaching, the chief could not drive them away, so he smiled.
“This is not like going to the county town and seeing Liuli’s beautiful jewelry and toys, and the children are clamoring to buy them.
You also know the situation in the village, poor, where can you get the money to corrupt the children?
Later, everyone thought about it, just like children who want to eat rock candy or want to buy round-flavored soap, let’s make colored glaze ourselves
As long as there are other ways, the village will not dig out the search. They are all poor and troubled like this, alas."
The manager said and touched the head of Hanhan next to him, "Poor, um, hehehehehe"
Mrs. Zhu One or four people ""
They really want to ask, are you sure you are poor? Why do you want to insult this word?
If rock sugar is expensive, you can make your own rock sugar, and if honey locust soap is expensive, you can make it. Better soap, now that glass is so expensive, you actually know how to burn it
We in the Ming Dynasty also have more expensive firearms, muskets, etc., which are put out for sale to you. Can you make them yourself because you find them too expensive?
Thinking like this, Zhu Taiyi echoed, "Xiaqiu Village is not easy, that Liuli"
"Isn't this coming out?" The chief turned around to get out of the way. In the heat wave, the liquid glass flowed Go to a special pool.
You can't see anything right now. You need to wait until it cools down before you can see the amount of impurities more intuitively.
Some villagers who had been trained in advance stretched their tools into the pool to take some glass, put their mouths to it and blew a glass bubble, which quickly cooled down.
Zhu Wentian looked at it and shook his head slightly, no, there are too many impurities, wait until the other groups are burned out before adjusting.
He believed that there were many impurities because he wanted to use them to make test vessels. For current glass jewelry, this impurity could be ignored.
There were villagers nearby who took the glass solution and put it into the mold. Everyone waited. When it was almost cold, they took it out and a glass bracelet appeared.
Others kept taking out the glass solution and putting it in the mold. It was the first test anyway, so don’t waste too much. Just make it if you can and give it to the people in the village.
The first bracelet was completely cold. He picked it up, wiped it with a silk handkerchief, and put it on the little girl’s wrist. “Here, I’m happy now. I’ve been shouting to buy it all day long. It’s such an expensive thing.” , we poor people can buy it."
The little girl didn't care what the mayor said, she never said she wanted to buy it. At this moment, she nodded vigorously, "Yeah, poor, no, buy it, do it, hehehehe"< /p>
She shook her wrist. The glass bracelet was beautiful, like jade.
"里There is also a fire under the pond." Zhu Taiyi glanced at the bracelet with envy and discovered the secret again.
"There is no way, it will be cold if you don't light the fire. It takes a pile of good coal to burn it, and it is all money. Isn't it because"
"I know the merits of the poor thing. "Zhu Taiyi said it helpfully.
Zhu Taier said from the side: "Chief, I see there is a lot of colored glaze. Can you make a batch and show it to the palace?"
"Of course, I heard that His Majesty and the Prince in the palace are living a very poor life, so I don't want to buy colored glaze anymore. "
The head of the village did not hesitate at all. If he makes good things, he must send them to the prince and sell them to foreigners.
The village burns glass because he wants to get things, and he can't find anywhere else. Liuli, I don’t expect to sell it and make a fortune.
The village has enough food and clothing, and the silver in the warehouse exceeds 10,000 taels. If you make a hundred thousand taels, you still keep it in the warehouse.
Every piece of glass was made, and the broken ones were thrown aside and dealt with later.
Zhu Taiyi and the others looked at the thrown glass and thought they would take it and polish it before putting it away. It can be sold in the market
I heard that it is not easy to make colored glaze. Why does the village look so simple?
So at noon, Zhu Taiyi and After Zhu Taier finished eating, he took the dinner food and glassware for the palace on board, and put four bracelets on each wrist, which made a jingling sound. Group 952868558
