266. Chapter 266
Leng Xiaoxi rode on the horse and looked around.
The mountains in the distance, full of greenery, the large green nearby, and the herds of cattle and sheep all over the mountains and fields on the oasis, all made her excited and wanted to shout.
Take a deep breath and go in, and your whole body is so comfortable.
All of this comes from their own merits, thinking of this, there is a spray of pride, from the bottom of my heart, a good mood follows.
"Boming, do you look over there?" she chirped excitedly.
Ji Boming was silent, and hugged her tightly behind him again.
No wonder Leng Xiaoxi is so excited, now, this place is even more different from the past, the black and brown barren mountain beams in the past, full of devastation.
Who would have thought that in just one year, this place has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Ji Boming took her, and after riding a round of horses, Leng Xiaoxi thought about his plan.
"Brother Hexuan, if you haven't played enough, just play a little longer, and I'll go back with Boming first. ”
The clear voice not far away called Lin Hexuan to rein in his horse, turned his head, thought about it, and he patted the horse and followed.
"Xiaoxi, didn't you go to see that leather yesterday?"
Tian Qingfu came here in the morning, and the first thing he did was to open the storehouse where he hoarded cowhides and sheepskins.
Leng Xiaoxi and Ji Boming got off the horse, and she pulled Ji Boming alive and came here.
Before the person could walk in, there was immediately a smell of smell and a little musty smell that rushed into the nose.
Ji Boming covered his nose, he didn't quite understand why Leng Xiaoxi pulled him here.
When I walked into the warehouse, I was greeted by the piles of small cow and sheepskins.
"So much?" Although he was prepared in his heart, Leng Xiaoxi was still surprised when he looked at the skin in front of him.
"This skin, when the sun is good, take it out to dry?" Leng Xiaoxi asked Tian Qingfu.
"Yesterday, we took it out to dry. Tian Qingfu replied.
"Xiaoxi, I don't know if you want to hoard these skins, what's the use?"
Tian Qingfu wanted to say that this sheepskin can be used as a sheepskin mattress and sheepskin jacket, but these cowhides and pigskins are hard enough to be used as knives, so she has to keep them for what he supervises.
With a smile on her lips, she said, "What's the use, you will know what it's for right away, these skins are treasures, and they can be very useful." ”
After speaking, Leng Xiaoxi squinted at Tian Qingfu, and then at Ji Boming, and saw that they were all at a loss.
He fell his eyes on Lin Hexuan's body.
"Brother Hexuan, you come and tell them. ”
"Let's not talk about this for now, this is not something that can be explained clearly in one sentence or two. ”
After Lin Hexuan finished speaking, seeing the disappointed look on Ji Boming's face, he hurriedly said.
"Boming, haven't you seen those sofas at home?"
When Ji Boming heard this, his face was sudden, last night, he wanted to ask Leng Xiaoxi what he was made of, so many things in the lobby were comfortable to sit in, and they were so slippery to the touch and felt super good.
Now, when Lin Hexuan said this, he understood.
"Xiaoxi, is the seat in the lobby made of this leather?"
Leng Xiaoxi nodded and said, "Boming, actually, there are still many things you don't know, do you know? In the modern world, this skin is precious, and there are too many things that can be made from skin......
"What are you guys modern, what is modern?"
Tian Qingfu was confused when he heard it, and he couldn't help but interject and ask.
"Modern...... Modern is what it means now, and now I ask you, what I told you yesterday, did you tell your wife?"
"Well, I went back too late last night to say it. Tian Qingfu was telling the truth.
Last night, he drank wine at Leng Xiaoxi's house, and when he went back, he fell asleep when he was sleepy.
This morning, when he got up, Chunhua Niang had already gotten up and was busy greeting the children in the kindergarten, and she really didn't have time to say that.
"Communicate with your daughter-in-law as soon as possible, if you can't communicate, do you want me to tell Chunhua's sister-in-law in person?"
When Leng Xiaoxi said this, his eyes drifted on Tian Qingfu's black and red face, and the ridicule in his words was obvious.
Tian Qingfu was so told by Leng Xiaoxi, his face turned red, and he patted his chest and said.
"I'm a big man, can't I be the master of a woman?"
On the way back from the ranch, the three of them walked side by side, and Leng Xiaoxi glanced at Lin Hexuan, who was walking beside her.
"Hexuan, do you remember our modern, ripe leather process?"
Lin Hexuan had already thought that Leng Xiaoxi would ask him this.
Because, because ......
In modern times, Xu Lei has a loyal seeker, and the girl's home is a processing factory specializing in cooked skins.
At that time, Leng Xiaoxi had a good relationship with that girl, in order to fulfill Xu Lei, she went to that girl's house under the pretext of playing, and she went to play more often, and she knew more or less about the processes of cooked skin.
Now, when Lin Hexuan saw Leng Xiaoxi asking himself like this, he pretended to snort with disdain, selling Guanzi.
"At this time, do you know how to use this young master again?"
Ji Boming watched Leng Xiaoxi and Lin Hexuan talk like this, and he couldn't intervene in modern things.
However, he was really curious about what they called modern age.
Why do the two of them know so much?
A few days ago, those things on the battlefield, if it weren't for Lin Hexuan's resourcefulness, he would have a different way of fighting.
He really can't keep it, and he can defeat Zhao Guo.
Ji Boming clearly remembered that at first, the crown prince Li Minghao was arrogant and commanding, but whenever Zhao Guo came to provoke, Li Minghao asked them to send troops in his way.
After several defeats, Ji Boming discussed with Lin Hexuan's analysis, and they sent troops to pick up the enemy's weak attack.
After several times and frequent victories, the crown prince Li Minghao had to look at them with admiration.
In the end, whenever he sent troops, Li Minghao took the initiative to come to Ji Boming to discuss, and he no longer had the arrogance of the prince.
In the end, after capturing several cities in a row, Li Minghao no longer acted like a prince to Ji Boming, but obeyed with his bow, and he admired Ji Boming and them in his heart.
This led to the victory of Yan Guo and the defeat of Zhao Guo.
Looking deeply at them talking about how to cook skins, they were full of interest, Ji Boming did not have a little jealousy.
Because, he knew that if Leng Xiaoxi liked Lin Hexuan, they would have been together for a long time in modern times, and Leng Xiaoxi would not have artificially traveled here for the second time.
However, why Lin Hexuan came and what he came for, Ji Boming knew it in his heart.
Because, he believes in Leng Xiaoxi, and even more in Lin Hexuan's character, so for them in the future world, all he can do is to listen and watch more and learn with an open mind.
"Xiaoxi, since you are going to make a sofa, you will be busy in the future? What I don't understand is, why do you want the women in Shimenqiao County to make shoes?"
While Lin Hexuan admired Ji Boming's quick reaction, he felt that he had the need to explain to the humble Ji Boming.
"Boming, Leng Xiaoxi wants to open a shoe factory, to put it bluntly, she wants to open a leather shoe processing factory. ”
"Leather shoes?" Ji Boming really didn't understand, what were leather shoes.
Looking down at the shoes he was wearing, he wanted to say, what are leather shoes?
What do leather shoes look like? Could it be that they want to make shoes out of this leather?
"Boming, you're not wrong at all, I just want to produce leather shoes that were not available in ancient times and that the ancients had never seen. ”
Leng Xiaoxi saw Ji Boming's serious face and humble study, and turned around and smiled at him.
After a long time, Ji Boming finally understood what Leng Xiaoxi's leather shoes looked like.
"Xiaoxi, what kind of leather shoes are you talking about, can they really be so durable, can they be worn for a few years, and they won't be broken?"
"Boming, let me tell you that! If the leather shoes we produce are not only beautiful in style and easy to take care of, but they are really not easy to break when worn on the feet. ”
Leng Xiaoxi said this, what did he think, "Oh, by the way, if the soldiers on the team wear these leather shoes, leather boots, and leather clothes, it will be warm, comfortable and good-looking." ”
Leng Xiaoxi gestured with his hand as he spoke, explaining to Ji Boming.
"Boming, if we make a lot of shoes and boots, we will give a pair of free to the soldiers and beauties, then the battlefield is the soldiers, and they are no longer afraid of climbing and pricking their feet with anything, and the ground is hot and hot. ”
"Really?" Ji Boming heard Leng Xiaoxi say this, his eyes were full of excitement.
Before, Ji Boming was thinking about how to make the shoes on the soldiers' feet durable.
On the battlefield, the soldiers ran on the battlefield, often losing their shoes, and the worn shoes exposed their toes.
He couldn't see the blood on the soldiers' feet.
Since then, Ji Boming has finally understood why Leng Xiaoxi drew pictures and asked those women in Shimenqiao County to make shoes and high boots.
returned home from outside, and for a while, Ji Boming still couldn't pull out his thoughts from the imaginary leather shoes and leather boots.
After several days of preparation, Leng Xiaoxi posted a notice to recruit workers from a nearby village.
She recruited more than 130 male and female workers at the price of ten cents a day for each laborer.
After a short period of training, Leng Xiaoxi and Lin Hexuan first asked the new workers to transport the skins from the depths of the grassland to the nearest place to the stream.
Fortunately, the current means of transportation are very convenient, and the new workers are full of enthusiasm, and they are all thinking about how to behave themselves.
Therefore!
In less than three days, on the platform by the stream, three small hills of leather mountains were piled up.
Leng Xiaoxi asked someone to drive the car again, went to the kiln not far from Nanqiu Town, and bought hundreds of large urns at once.
The urn was bought, and she asked people to stack it neatly, and in the future, this early factory for making leather will be located by the stream.
According to the previous process of cooking the skin, there was no way to get some potions for soaking the skins here, so she discussed with Lin Hexuan and had to use the soil method.
The large urns in the open space were all filled with water that she had mixed with acacia locusts and plant ash.
