"It's not to blame the third family for this, it wasn't that our family was nervous at the time, and we wouldn't have set up this family for Peach Sprouts, and the money was also saved at the time, so forget about it in the future." "I don't blame her, a widow, isn't it a joke."

Peach Blossom came to her grandfather to discuss some things, and when she heard the whispers of her grandfather and grandmother, she was still very unhappy, you spent the money, and if you have something, you will complain about us, she deliberately coughed before raising her feet into her grandfather's house.

"Grandpa, our family has been moving so much these days, will we recruit thieves at night?" Peach Blossom raised the question that she has been thinking about in the past few days, "The flower girl also thought of it, I was also worried in the past two days, the thief didn't dare to come, we have a lot of family, I and your uncle are very good at archery, but I am afraid of the bandits on Heishui Mountain, a lot of people are dispatched, burning, killing and looting, ruthless, bows and arrows can't scare them." "How many people are there?" "I heard that there are fifty or sixty people, and they will not all go down the mountain, and generally thirty or so people will be dispatched, and they are all riding horses and carrying big swords, and they are not afraid of death, even the yamen in the town dare not provoke them." ”

"Then in the past two days, if we hire two people to watch at the entrance of the village at night, they will definitely light torches, and they can see it from afar, and everyone will wake up as soon as the gong hits," "It's okay, even if you wake up, most people don't dare to come out." "If Ah Gong can shoot a few arrows," "Only one or two, if you shoot one or two, it will make them even more angry," "If you can shoot more than ten people, will they be afraid." "Of course it will, people are not afraid of death, and the key is that we can't afford to hire a nurse." "I'll design something for Ah Gong, and Ah Gong will see if it's okay."

Peach Blossom found a pen and paper to draw the bow and crossbow in his previous life, and explained it to his grandfather in detail, the more his grandfather listened, the more he was surprised, he often used bows and arrows, and suddenly understood the benefits of crossbows. He himself proposed two shots, three shots, and even eight shots, and there were two arrows that could be fired at the same time, three arrows. The final conclusion is that the eight consecutive shots of three arrows, what is the concept, that is, twenty-four arrows in a few seconds, and it can also be wound in advance, one person can control dozens of them, the arrow body is thick and short, no need to bring tail feathers, and it is convenient to make. The range is much farther, and if it is used on the battlefield, it will definitely be one enemy hundred.

The two were stunned by this theory at the same time, it seems that this must be kept secret, otherwise it will bring ruin to the whole family.

Grandfather was attracted by this novelty, and hurried to find tools to figure it out for himself, and Peach Blossom had to find his uncle again and ask him to find someone to arrange a vigil at night.

The two construction sites at home are in full swing, and it is even more lively when eating at noon, there are 140 people, and there are children who work to bring over to rub rice, a village is basically to eat at home, the rice is a thick little rice according to the requirements of the peach blossom, it is estimated that the home is also for the elderly and children at home to eat, the peach blossom saw the basin-sized rice bowl, and was also speechless, she chose to open her eyes and close her eyes, half a pot of rice is only two or three pennies, many people are full of enthusiasm for the peach blossom family's meal, and they are desperately performing, hoping that the peach blossom family will find them next time they have a life, the rice money came out.

Peach Blossom knows that there are still many places to use people in the future, just like this morning's incident, I saw a lot of excitement, but I didn't come out to help, it seems that I have to let these people slowly move closer to their homes, and finally twist a village into a rope. So now it's best to think of a good business so that everyone can also make money, so that they will buy the hearts of the people and not make the Peach Blossom family seem isolated.

After eating, Peach Blossom sat alone outside the courtyard gate in a daze, some of the things that make money unfortunately can't be done, some are incomplete materials, and some are not able to do without machines. What is there that can be easy to do and make money?

Peach Blossom stared blankly at the blue sky, the space is so good now, it was rare in the previous life, only when I was a child, there was such a sky, as if it was a long time ago, when a few good friends would meet to play together, a few little girls loved to lie on the grass, imagine what the shape of the clouds looked like, and sometimes fly kites in a spring like this.

Suddenly Peach Blossom caught something in her head, happily jumped up from the ground, scared that the cat basking in the sun at her feet quickly disappeared without a trace, yes, it is the kite that Peach Blossom thought of, now this season, not far from the day when the kite flies all over the sky on March 3, anyone can do this, the elderly, women, half-grown children, can do it.

I remember watching a movie "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", which has a plot about playing kites, and in the previous life, there were many places where there was a custom of flying kites during the Qingming Festival, and there were also old people with children to fly kites in the square all year round.

Peach Blossom asked a few people and said that they didn't know what a kite was, and they hadn't heard of it, and they hadn't seen anything like Peach Blossom.

So the peach blossom farts to find materials, bamboo mountain is there, rice paper has to buy, the key is to paint on the kite, people who can paint are not easy to find now, and they can't be cultivated for a while, those color pigments are also so expensive, only rich people will buy a little for children to paint, the color is also very monotonous, only red, blue, brown, yellow, black. Famous Chinese paintings are all one tone. With the development of the years, the colors gradually became richer.

It can be printed, the current door god, the god of the stove, and the god of wealth are not all woodcuts, that is, anti-prints engraved on the woodboard, and the colors are painted on the template of the woodblock print, and the paper is put up, pressed with a wooden stone, and it is a painting when it is removed. It's much faster than a picture, the design pattern is not a problem, she can draw a lot by herself, and the carving of the wooden board needs professionals, so she needs to inquire about it.

At dinner, a proposal to make a kite, everyone unanimously approved, by the uncle's second cousin Brother Cai is responsible for this, although Brother Cai is not as flexible as Brother De, but down-to-earth and willing to work, Peach Blossom also likes it, Peach Blossom's current business is ready to use all young brothers, one is for exercise, and the other is for the future family to train her successor,

Brother Youcai plans to go to the master who can carve prints tomorrow, and after dinner, Peach Blossom went to Uncle Niu's house to book a car, and by the way, he told his aunt to let his uncle-in-law come over to do the bamboo shoots, and the aunt was naturally very happy, and she was ready to go home the next day, but she didn't have a car, so she had to plan to rent a car in the town first.

Later, I heard that Peach Blossom hired a car to find a New Year's painting master, and it happened that her eldest sister's family was doing this, that is, the brother-in-law and nephew of the little uncle were doing it.

After Peach Blossom tried to make two kites on the second day, she took it to find the shopkeeper on the third day, and the negotiation went smoothly, so she waited for the shopkeeper to discuss the size of the order with the owner, and then made the model of the kite, and the printmaker set down the pattern style, size, and color. I've been busy for days.

The hard work pays off, the grandfather finally finished the first bow and crossbow after five or six days, and even the uncle who didn't go home for a few days rushed back to try his hand, the strong crossbow with three arrows and eight consecutive shots, its weight is not stable for an ordinary person to lift, let alone launch, that is, like the grandfather and uncle who have been pulling the bow for a long time with amazing arm strength.

The crossbow body is wide, there are three grooves in the front, there are three arrow boxes in the back, the arrow boxes are arranged in turn, each is equipped with eight short arrows in order of up and down, each arrow has a Mitsubishi iron head, there are eight grooves on the three arrow boxes at a time, there is a bowstring in each groove, the trigger device is installed under the arrow box, the left arm is cushioned in the front body of the crossbow, the back body is on the right shoulder, the trigger device is hugged with the index finger of the right hand, there is a barb on each side to the back cog-shaped annular piece, turn forward together, The bowstring in front was unblocked and released, and three arrows were shot forward, flying straight for eighty meters before falling, and then the right hand gently pressed a bouncing device under the box, and three new arrows appeared in the groove, and then pressed the trigger device, and another string was released, and the second wave of three short crossbows flew out.

Wait for the eight rounds to be fired, reloaded, online, bursts, peach blossom calculations, about a minute or so, eight rounds of firing actually only take more than ten seconds, the range is ideal, grandfather said that if you do a single arrow, the range of the burst is much farther, can reach 150 meters away. For the army, the country is absolutely invincible.

Peach Blossom asked them to keep it secret, and analyzed the stakes and interests, and everyone chose to keep it secret, and at Peach Blossom's request, my grandfather and uncle began to make crossbows of various specifications that meet the needs of everyone in the family. It's much faster this time.

Uncle came back and discussed with his grandmother that he wanted to propose to Sister Xiaoli, after a few days of contact, Uncle is more and more fond of Sister Xiaoli, not only capable, diligent, but also very strong and optimistic. It is the kind of girl in the uncle's mind, and the uncle is indeed not small, although the grandmother is a little unhappy and wants to be the right person, but she can't stand the uncle's stubbornness, so she has to let the ready-made matchmaker in the family go to propose.

Of course, Peach Blossom is also willing to be Sister Xiaoli's fifth aunt, originally she liked Sister Xiaoli's character, but now it is naturally better to become a family, Peach Blossom is still a matchmaker.

After Peach Blossom tried the bow and crossbow, she went to see the carving of the kite template, and in the big uncle's courtyard, the two fathers and sons who were carving, short stature, dark skin, and a little beard, were black and strong, with big eyes and thick lips, and looked simple It was the son, this is the eldest brother-in-law and nephew of the little brother-in-law. His father's name is Liu Genglou, Peach Blossom calls him uncle like Xijuan, his son Sixteen is called Liu Mushun, and Peach Blossom calls him Brother Shunzi.

The two of them work very carefully, the carving action is very skillful, the carved lines are very smooth, much better than the peach blossom requirements, the template is to draw the painting backwards to the wood of the smooth board, on the wooden board to slowly dig away the unused part with a carving knife, leaving the bottom of the painting.

When the father and son saw the peach blossom coming in, they quickly sat down, "The flower is in charge, you sit, you sit." ”
