"It feels cold this morning." Zhu Ping went back to the palace to stay last night. Just because he doesn't like Princess Qin doesn't mean he doesn't have a woman.
In the Ming Dynasty, becoming a adult at the age of sixteen meant that one could support a family, and many women married at the age of thirteen or fourteen.
"Your Highness, there is cold dew today, it is cool in the morning and evening, but the autumn air is refreshing during the day." The chief explained to Zhu Xi.
"Is there anything special about the cold dew?" Zhu Chong asked if he didn't understand.
"Crabs are delicious, and clams on the beach are the most plump when dug out at this time." said the picky eater.
"Okay, I'll ask someone to buy crabs. I'm afraid the clams are not easy to transport. If they go up the Yangtze River, they will probably die when they arrive here."
Zhu Qing wants to eat them. Crabs are eaten by rich people but not by poor people. It has no meat and requires firewood to cook. If one accidentally eats it, he will become ill and have nowhere to seek medical treatment.
The key is to need mature vinegar and ginger, which will increase the expenditure.
"Your Highness wants to eat. It's better to buy someone else's than to catch it yourself. You can eat with peace of mind. There are many craftsmen, so let them make crab baskets."
The village manager is worried that the crabs he bought are not fresh. , next to the Qinhuai River, there are river crabs in it.
"I heard that your ability to make crab baskets came from Ningguo Mansion, and people elsewhere followed suit."
Zhu Xi became happy when he heard that he could personally participate in catching crabs.
"Yes, yes, Your Highness knows where the crab baskets in Ningguo Mansion come from."
The director looked at Hanhan next to him and thought of selling crabs to make money. Those crabs can solve the urgent need.
Nowadays, there is no need to make money by selling crabs, but the memory is still fresh.
Zhu Xiang understood instantly, “It turns out that it was said in Xiaqiu Village to make it quickly and throw it into the water.”
“Don’t be anxious, Your Highness, put it down tonight and raise it tomorrow morning. "The mayor responded and went to eat.
When it was mentioned at the dinner table that we were going to make crab pots, the craftsmen all said that it was no problem, indicating that the crabs had been eaten and the food made in Xiaqiu Village must be delicious.
Zhu Yuanzhang was holding a court meeting at the moment, announcing the construction of the canal. In Rouge Gang, he drilled holes to put new gunpowder, detonated them and took out the gravel.
Civil and military officials all agreed that even if the army was used, the sergeants happened to be familiar with the new gunpowder, and that thing was too scary.
In fact, they have no idea that yellow explosives made from nitroglycerin and diatomaceous earth alone are difficult to detonate without a detonator.
The most dangerous thing is mercury pyromer. Keep it away from nitroglycerin and nothing will happen.
So while the craftsmen were busy making crab baskets, Xiaqiu Village got a task to teach people sent by the imperial court to make new gunpowder.
The chosen people are the craftsmen who used to make black powder, and they have always been restricted.
A group of people went to the Danqing store, and it turned out that the children were responsible for teaching, little by little, and everyone was careful.
The previous steps are prone to problems, and it is not safe until the diatomaceous earth is mixed.
The same goes for mercury, which is poisonous., use him to improve the gun and use it to make flash caps.
Zhu Wentian is not in a hurry to come up with new guns at the moment and lets the soldiers practice with flintlock guns first. The craftsmen will then upgrade after they get used to making gun barrels.
"Zhu Lichang, the children in your village are in charge of this matter"
Zhu Xiang was not allowed to go in because he was afraid of being in danger. He looked outside the door and found out that the people in Xiaqiu Village The children operate very smoothly.
"Alas, others are not allowed to learn. Children are clever and clever." The headmaster gave an explanation.
"I heard that the girls in your village will not marry outside the home, but only recruit sons-in-law. Well, it is a good thing."
Zhu Xi suddenly understood the rules of Xiaqiu Village. Children participating in the production of such powerful gunpowder can allow them to get married
Too much is not a good thing. Whoever dares to marry a girl from Xiaqiu Village will not be married on the day of marriage. Go out again.
"Yes," Li laughed. He actually thought that the population of Xiaqiu Village was small and people were always marrying out. When would the number of people in Xiaqiu Village reach 1,000?
The children were patiently teaching , the gunpowder craftsmen study seriously. They have been making gunpowder for a long time and know that they cannot make mistakes. Otherwise
it will not be considered learned until night. However, they are not proficient enough and they need to go back and continue to practice.
After Zhu Xi had dinner, he went to the Qinhuai River with the people in the village. He had to set aside a place, tell others not to steal his crab basket, and send someone to guard it.
A total of two thousand crab baskets were placed along the river. The crab baskets were filled with fish offal collected from the market to attract crabs.
"How many crabs can there be tomorrow morning?" Zhu Xi watched the crab basket go down and began to look forward to it.
“I don’t know.” The manager answered honestly. God knows how many crabs can be put in a crab basket.
I guess my village should also have crab baskets. If there is a boat, you can go to Danyang Lake in the east and no one will bother you.
There was a loud bang in Kunning Palace, and the gunpowder brought exploded.
"It is indeed more powerful than the original one. Unfortunately, it cannot be used in a gun. There must be something outside to detonate it. It would be great if there is no need for additional detonation."
Queen Ma looked at it Looking at the traces after the explosion, I admitted that it was a good thing, but also regretted it.
"Return to the queen." The eunuch sent to fetch the things said next to him, "If you don't use diatomaceous earth, there is no need to put additional detonators. But in that case, once it collides, it will explode."
"I see, diatomaceous earth is added to prevent it from exploding easily. The name of this seems familiar to me."
"Queen, it's called nitroglycerin, and it's made into tablets. Just like this, it can kill people and save people." The eunuch knew.
"Yes, this is it. Who would have thought that the same thing used in different places would be completely different."
Queen Ma sighed with emotion, turned around and returned to the house. Just read it and don’t take it back again.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Zhu Ping got up and went to call the chief, but the team outsideWu has already stood up, ready to get the crab basket.
"You guys got up early," Zhu Ping yawned.
"The rice has been put into the pot and cooked, and the crabs are just in time to be put in to make porridge together." The chief explained the situation.
"That's it. If there are many crabs, send some to the palace. They will know who can eat and who cannot eat."
Zhu Xiang did not forget his father. After taking care of his mother, he sent live crabs in. The people at the hospital already knew who was in what condition.
A group of people drove to the Qinhuai River. The people guarding it stayed up all night. They were mainly responsible for looking after the lights, the lights of the Qin Palace.
With the lights on, no one dares to steal the crab basket, and there is no need to keep an eye on any one person.
The craftsmen helped to carry the crab pots, and the people in Xiaqiu Village prepared a pile of straw. As soon as the crabs were poured out, everyone skillfully caught and tied the crabs, and separated the males and females and their sizes.
The little girl Linger laughed from time to time. She remembered the first time she went to sell crabs with Brother Hanhan.
At that time, I didn’t know that Brother Hanhan had become smarter. He thought that he was at a disadvantage because he didn’t understand the size and quality of crabs.
When it was sold out, I discovered that I actually made more money than normal sales, and it sold quickly. Others came to buy the crabs sold by the fool.
While Zhu Wentian tied up the crabs quickly, he also recalled what happened when he first arrived in Xiaqiu Village. It was really difficult at that time
Due to the slow speed of coding in farmers, he thought about it every day Write more, so there is no time to check for typos. If you see it, please tell me, and the farmer will correct it quickly. Thank you
