The first update of Chapter 529: Long Nights and Short Days, Working Warmth
"It's not like this, it's just grassland. There are some here, right? We collected the seeds and sent them to our fief for planting."
Zhu Xiang disagreed. It was too far away. How to transport the planted things and there were not many people in the area.
"Indeed, I was too hasty, and gold is of no use. There is a river nearby, and placer gold can be mined. I can still make a few thousand taels a year."
Li Zhang said I'm anxious, let's talk about gold by the way.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi didn't react at all. Obviously, a few thousand taels of gold was too little.
Xu Da and others were interested, not just a few thousand taels a year, but it depends on how many people are needed.
If a person earns ten taels of gold a year, which is equivalent to fifty taels of silver, or fifty strings, it is a bit hard. If you work for five years, it will be enough for a lifetime.
If you buy a shop and rent it out for 250 guan, the rent will be more than 10 guan a year. Do you still have to work by yourself?
If you are lucky, you can get a few nuggets of gold. , bought land and real estate, and as long as the children and grandchildren do not lose their fortune, they will have nothing to worry about
A group of people finished the delicious fish stew with different thoughts, and the fishing continued, gradually extending upstream.
The distance to fish upstream is short, and you can only walk a few hundred miles to the source. The closer to the source, the higher the terrain.
If there are no lakes upstream, aquatic life will obviously decrease as the terrain increases.
Just like Luoshui and Bashui, the closer to the source, the fewer fish, shrimps and crabs there are. The downstream river channel is wide, especially in the slow flow area, where there are many fish and shrimps, as well as mussels and snails.
“So the water is used to attack the sand, just like the upper reaches of the river, especially the waterfall area, which is naturally formed.
People imitate nature and use sandbags and other tools to transform the river. Compressed inward, the flow of water remains unchanged and narrows through the channel, forcing it to raise the water level and increase the flow rate.
The water is slow and the sand accumulates. Therefore, smooth rivers and lakes must have fast water. It is easy to raise fish in a river with a long drainage basin.
For example, the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers no longer care about the slowness of the water flow. The drainage basin is too long and fish and shrimp cannot be washed all the way to the sea. ”
The head of the village took the opportunity to continue popularizing science. He learned a lot and had a lot of fun.
Others also enjoyed listening and learned a lot. It turns out that it is so simple, but no one has explained it to them like this before.
Li Chang continued to talk about the problem of which bank the river invades due to the trend of the terrain and the rotation of the earth.
Talking about how horses like to circle from left to right, and talking about the hairstyle of Beiyuan people and why it is different from the normal hairstyle of Ming Dynasty.
Because people are riding horses and shooting arrows, their hair is so much and long, and it is still on both sides. When the wind blows, it affects their vision.
The generals soon became primary school students, and they listened obediently. They were all knowledgeable, and they were taught by the superiors.
People are different. Some people see superiority, while others see superiority.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi are naturallyLook at the chief, needless to say, if you are an expert, you are guaranteed to be awesome, and the chief can learn from it, which is why his father gave him a Jinshi background.
The entire Xiaqiu Village is studying hard. When the children in Xiaqiu Village can treat people, direct buildings, make explosives and firearms, can they be ignored?
Say they can There are experts behind the scenes who are giving guidance. It is the experts who are powerful, but they are not.
Is this really nonsense? A female doll who can independently make nitroglycerin explosives is treated as invisible and despised
The sergeant who is fishing does not have that much on his mind. Their hearts were full of happiness and joy, how could they not finish the net?
Someone stood on the ice and weighed the baskets of fish with a hook scale and a pole. After weighing the fish, they recorded them and stacked them on a wooden shelf. Let the people on the shore pull it up along the wooden frame.
With the craftsmen here, it is too easy to fight from the river bank to the ice surface of the river. There is no difficulty.
Then water was poured on this slide-like shelf, and ice was put on it. As soon as things were hung, the steam engine buzzed over there, and a rope became a winch rope, which continued to carry things up to be picked up. Down.
People from Xiaqiu Village have been helping with the work, only stopping occasionally to take a break.
"Brother, your feet are freezing, but my feet are hurting." Zhu Xi stood watching others working and felt cold.
"Same, are you cool with the chief?" Zhu Biao nodded and talked to the chief. He turned around and the chief ran up to give instructions, walking back and forth, and sometimes even helping to pull him.
"Second brother, let's go and work. The lazier you are in this north, the colder it will be." Zhu Biao understood.
He took his younger brother up to help. Sure enough, it became less cold after working for a while.
"Chief, why didn't you tell us?" Zhu Xi complained after he warmed up.
“Because we believe that His Highness the King of Qin will not freeze himself to death stupidly. It is said that there is a landowner in the north who pretends to be careless and locks a hired worker in a warehouse.
The next day was the day to pay wages, but he didn’t want to pay. The employee froze to death. He said it was not intentional and he would just pay some money.
As a result, he opened the door of the warehouse the next day. I found that the hired worker was still alive, shirtless and sweating profusely.
The hired worker was so cold that he just pushed the mill in the warehouse and survived. ”
The manager said. There is a folk tale, as long as you have endurance and can endure hunger, you will not be afraid of the cold when working.
"We don't believe what you said, Chief, but now we are really not cold anymore. We have to change clothes when we go back. We are all sweating."
Zhu Xi expressed disbelief and pushed for a night. Even Mo Lu can't bear it
"The best way to steam fresh fish is to steam it. Do we bring enough black bean sauce?"
Li Chang can't comment on this kind of real and fake When things started to sound, he was thinking about how to eat the fish after catching it.
“It’s enough, but not much, mainly to suppress the fishy smell, and dry onions and ginger.
Why are you and Lin Ze so poor? They want nothing, Bei Yuan EmperorThe place where I stay
In Yingtian Mansion in Nanjing, we still have to worry about food. Each of our workshops is built on the south bank of the Qinhuai River. ”
The more Zhu Xi lacks things here, the more he misses his days in Nanjing.
At this moment, he finally felt the huge gap between being able to control everything and being unable to control it. , Jubiqi is better
Li Chang smiled, "His Royal Highness King Qin, when the time comes we will bring Jubiqi to this place, as well as a department store. "
"Okay, you've already said it. There is gold and silver here. You can just fish the placer gold along the river. Let us fish it. We don't have the intention. Let's trade with the people they fish for. ”
Zhu Xiang is in a good mood again, doing business is no problem, simple.
Before dusk comes, everyone will go back with the caught fish.
Obviously we have to waste torches today. When the prince didn't come, everyone changed to eating two meals a day. The days are short and the nights are long.
Go to bed as soon as it gets dark. Two meals a day is enough. .
It has just passed the winter solstice, and the days are still short and the nights are long. There are only four hours of daylight here.
This is the 47th degree of north latitude. During the winter solstice. After this day and night situation, the days will become longer and longer. By the time of the summer solstice, the days here will be very long.
If you continue to go north and reach the pole, it will be day and night, with day and night for half a year. Once you change it, you can save your worries. Please remember to bookmark it.
