When Yang Zhuo returned, it was already an hour later. www.biquge.info It is said that not only Chenjiawan Village, but also the neighboring Huaishu Village and Xinghua Village were looted.

The county master is also very nervous, many people living in the county have a lot of backgrounds, in case of a mistake, ten heads are not enough to cut off.

There are also Dr. Lu's family in the town, it is understood that those characters who can't afford to offend themselves are respectful to the three of Dr. Lu's family.

I only have a few catches, but thanks to the blessings of these people, there is a garrison not far outside the city, and the leader of the garrison is surnamed Zhang, who is a general soldier. There are five or six hundred men under his command, which is already a very large number for a small border county.

After receiving the county's request for help, the general soldiers did not dare to slack off, and sent 300 men and horses to check each village, and the remaining 300 patrolled the county day and night, and the night curfew was strict.

The city gates, which are usually used for decoration, have been guarded by soldiers in full armor, and people entering and leaving the city are strictly checked.

After some investigation, Huaishu Village was the most serious, almost all the houses were spared, and ten people died, most of them were elderly people, and there was a child.

Xinghua Village was slightly better, but all the houses were burned down, and five people died.

Two people died in Chenjiawan Village, the father of the dog and the daughter-in-law of the big cow, and the child in the womb about five months old. Half of the house was destroyed, the other half was looted, and all the piles were stored in Chen Dazhu's house.

A few days later, news came from the imperial court that the Hu people were survivors of the defeat of the invasion of the Central Plains a few months earlier. There are not many of them, only about two hundred. Burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil.

Usually after making a vote and then hiding, the imperial court killed most of them in the north, and about forty people have not been found, so that the garrison must be wiped out.

For a time, everyone was in danger. The general army found about 30 people, and the rest, but did not find them again.

Just in case, Zhang Zongbing took Chenjiawan Village as the center, and each village allocated ten people to be stationed in the village.

In this way, there are not enough people in the city. Asking for troops from above, the imperial court replied that the war in the north was tight, and if it was not enough, it would recruit troops from the local area.

The reason for the war was because of the drought in the north, and the ruler in order to quell the civil strife, under the slogan of "grabbing food and saving the people", constantly harassed the frontier, and ran away after the fight, which caused the current emperor a headache.

In the past few days, Lu Yan has followed Li Zheng's suggestion and transformed the refuge cave, set up many traps, and Yang Zhuo also set up a phantom array around the entrance of the cave. made Lu Yan worship for several days. Yang Zhuo said that he saw it from that book, and showed it to Lu Yan, and a certain woman who thought she was very smart, like reading the book from heaven, returned it to the original owner in a stupid way.

Lu Yan repeatedly stated with Li Zheng that she would never be exposed until the moment of crisis. Li Zheng naturally knows the seriousness, and his family's lives were saved by Yang Zhuo and Lu Yan, not to mention that this request is also reasonable.

Lu Yan's courtyard also set up a formation, which is not usually activated, but once it is activated, it can also block it for a while, so as to buy enough time for Lu Yan's mother and daughter to escape.

Chen Fu, Sizhu and Da Niu have all joined the army, and Du Shi is crying at home.

Later, I heard that because I was familiar with the topography of the village, I was sent to Chenjiawan Village to stay in the village, and I calmed down.

The business of the restaurant has been affected somewhat, but after half a month, it is better, everyone has the mentality of eating one less meal, and they are more willing to spend money on food.

Lu Yan has recently been tinkering with poison in the medical system. After this incident, Lu Yan deeply realized that in this era, in addition to high-quality air and environmentally friendly food, there will also be wars that will occur at any time. Saving your life is a top priority.

Wake up in the morning and start exercising according to the memories of your past life. Gotta get this body strong as soon as possible. Don't talk about fighting back, at least the speed of escape must be raised.

Every morning, I saw Lu Yan running on the mountain forest trail with something called sandbags tied to her legs, and a burden on her back.

In the yard, there is also a lot of fitness equipment.

Simple and practical hand-to-hand combat techniques also started from scratch.

Other aspects are also not wasted, with a bumper harvest of cotton, with a yield of more than 400 catties per mu, and let Yang Zhuo make a gear cotton gin, spinning wheel, loom and a full set of tools for playing cotton (big slingshot, grinding cake and slingmal)

The cotton gin separates the cotton from the cotton seeds, the spinning wheel spins the cotton flowers into threads, and the looms weave the threads into cloth.

When the first piece of cloth was woven, Qi was excited for more than a week. This is cloth that can be used as bed sheets and fabrics.

The threads are dyed in a variety of colors and woven into various patterns.

Lu Yan was amazed by her mother's talent, but Lu Yan was a beginner herself. Interest is also not in this area. Later, I found that the threads were getting thinner, the patterns were getting more and more, and the fabrics were smoother, so I had the idea of opening a cotton cloth village.

But the mother is alone, and the cotton is so little, it is definitely not enough.

Playing the quilt, let Yang Zhuo help, loosen the cotton elasticity, compact it with a cake, and finally put on cotton yarn.

A total of nine beds were made, each bed was eight catties, and two beds were made in each of the two families. The remaining bed, Lu Yan personally gave it to Mrs. Zhao, the wife of the county master.

When Mrs. Zhao saw it, she hurriedly called someone to put on the mat, spread the sheets, and lie down, feeling very comfortable. Lu Yan hinted that the county magistrate must also like it, and the smart Mrs. Zhao must be able to understand.

As soon as the county magistrate came back from the yamen, he wanted to run into the concubine's house.

But I saw my wife dressed up and came over, saying that she wanted to show the master a strange thing. and emphasized that it was specially sent by Miss Lu.

The county master was not interested at first, but as soon as he heard that it was sent by Lu Yan, he hurriedly asked his wife to present it.

But the lady said that it was inconvenient, and she wanted to go to the room to have a look.

The county lord came to the bedroom that he hadn't patronized for a long time, followed his wife's advice, sat on the bed and felt it, and there was a very soft and comfortable touch under him, not as hard as a brown mat, and not as slippery as animal fur.

Lifting the bed sheet, a large snow-white object appeared in front of me, and the surface was full of dense white grid lines.

"What is this?"

"Miss Lu said that it was made of cotton grown by her own family, this is the first batch of products, there are only a few beds, in addition to the family, only this bed remains, seeing that the weather is getting colder, this warmth effect is good, give it to us to enjoy."

When the county magistrate heard this price, his eyes lit up, and he was so excited that he said:

"Did you ask how the cotton yields?"

"God, Miss Lu said that you will definitely ask this, with a yield of more than 400 catties per mu."

"This time, your lord, I'm really going up."

After the county lord finished, he hugged his wife and made love, and he turned the clouds and rain until the second half of the night, and then fell asleep.

Mrs. Zhao is also very happy with the nectar for a long time, and she is grateful to Lu Yan in her heart, in fact, she wanted to ask Lu Yan several times if she could help see if she couldn't have children, but when she saw that the other party was still a child, she couldn't open her mouth. Maybe this time......

The next day, the county magistrate took two family members and went straight to Lu Yan's house. Lu Yan seemed to be sure that the county master was coming, and she had already prepared refreshments.

The county magistrate didn't care about the food, and went straight to the point:

"And you really grew the cotton? Is it true that the yield of 400 per mu is 400? ”

"Yes, it's true."

"That can be promoted, the price is negotiable."

"Yes, but the seeds must be bought from me, and all the cotton must be sold to me. The selling price is set when the seed is purchased. ”

"This ......"

"Ming people don't say secret words, you want to use cotton for other purposes. I put the answer on paper and see if it is what you have in mind. ”

The county magistrate opened the note and laughed:

"It's refreshing to deal with smart people!"

"I don't ask for much, the credit belongs to you, we want to be the only supplier. Of course, the price of the same quality is the most favorable. ”

"This, it's easy to discuss with the common people, it's a matter of making money, and it's no problem to report to the court, but it's a shame to supply the army, I don't have a way to deal with the imperial business, if only Dr. Lu and Yan Gongzi could come forward." But I haven't had such a big face. ”

"They? They work? ”

"If they don't work, then there's really no trick."

"That's okay, I'll think of a way for the imperial businessman."

What Lu Yan wrote on the paper was: Army cotton clothes and quilts.

The war in the north continues, and the weather becomes cold in winter, and the army's current clothing is not cold resistant, and a large number of soldiers freeze to death every year.

Although the neighboring countries are short of food, they are good at hunting, and animal furs and other things are as common as the clothes of the Han people. In winter, the Han people will close the city and not come out, but not going out does not mean that the other party is also safe.

The imperial court thought of many ways, either the cost was too high, or the inconvenience was too heavy. The emperor once issued a reward order, if the problem can be solved, for the people, a reward of 100 taels of gold, for the official, a level of promotion.

When the county magistrate saw the quilt, he immediately thought of this.

Lu Yan naturally doesn't know this, but she has watched a lot of TV series and novels, which is not difficult to think of.

After going back, he went straight to the town to find Dr. Lu and Yan Shea.
