~~~~~
Li Hongyun thought that the eldest lady of their family would say something terrible and the last thing he wanted to see, but~, after listening to Li Youwei, Li Hongyun understood it, and the whole person stretched a lot.
How could that toad named Xu Changqing eat their young lady's swan meat?
How can they be coveted by ordinary people?
The most important thing is that the young lady is the same age as the prince, and in another year and a half, the prince will choose a concubine, according to their young lady's conditions and their Li family's heritage, it is definitely promising!
However, Miss's vision is really poisonous!
This black boy named Xu Changqing really has some skills, and he has potential, if he can be included in the Li family, it will be a great help to the Li family.
It's a pity that this kid is actually involved with Cao Bianjiao's madman, which is a bit uncomfortable.
Thinking about it, Li Hongyun hurriedly smiled and said, "Miss, this matter is no problem." I will try to get in touch with him as much as I can. In terms of important supplies such as food and medicine, even if you make less money, it doesn't hurt to give him some. I believe that at this point, even Cao Bianjiao can't compare with the heritage of our Li family. ”
"Hmm."
"This matter, with Uncle Yun, you to handle it, I will be relieved. By the way, Uncle Yun, in my name, you can give Xu Changqing dozens of stone grains and rice first, even if it is my living expenses under his rule these days! Okay, Uncle Yun, I'm a little tired. ”
Li Youwei yawned a little lazily and waved her hand.
Li Hongyun knew it, how dare she stay in the young lady's tent longer, and hurriedly said goodbye respectfully.
Waiting for Li Hongyun to leave, Li Youwei's tiredness was swept away, and a chill suddenly flashed in her beautiful eyes that were as smart as stars.
After a moment, his red lips opened lightly, and he scolded: "I thought you were dedicated to the people and a hero, but I didn't expect that you were so superficial, you only know how to judge people by their appearance!" Hum! Men all over the world look the same, and few of them are good things! ”
Thinking about it, Li Youwei picked up the wine jug next to her, poured a glass of warm wine, drank it all, picked up a book, and read it carefully.
……
In the early morning, the morning sun broke through the clouds, and Xu Changqing instinctively woke up.
At this time, everything is in ruins, Xu Changqing wants to be lazy, but he really doesn't have this kind of time.
Today, it is already the fifth day of the seventh month, and it is only twenty days before Ning Yuan swears in, and Xu Changqing must put his troops into a normal training state as soon as possible.
After a simple wash and a little movement, Xu Changqing changed his clothes and rushed to the fishing spot by the sea.
After these days of exploration and practice, morning has always been the best time for children to fish.
At this time, in the southeast of Shark Island, Uncle Hong had already led his sons to set up more than a dozen fishing spots.
This is not just a natural fishing spot, but also a number of artificial fishing vessels that are made of bamboo and fishing nets to build a cage-like fishing.
Rao is Xu Changqing got up early, here, Uncle Hong led the seventy or eighty people, but he started working here earlier.
There are plenty of fish around Shark Island, but sharks are just as active.
In other words, if Xu Changqing and the others want to get more harvests, they can only move the cheese of these sharks!
It's a bloody battle, it's inevitable!
So, during this time, there are not many delicious fish caught on the island, more sharks!
Fortunately, although shark meat is not very tasty and has a lot of urea, Xu Changqing knows how to cook shark meat, which is to make fish balls!
In addition, many children and ordinary people have jointly developed and added some new ingredients, even if it is not perfect, but it is not a big problem to satisfy the stomach.
Xu Changqing stared at it for a while, Uncle Hong and the others had already netted six small sharks, all of which were two meters long, and the harvest was very good.
These sharks will soon be cleaned up, made into fish balls, and then served to the table of the sons and women and the people.
Accompanied Uncle Hong and the others to get up a few more nets of fish, it was almost time, it was almost seven o'clock, and Xu Changqing also came to the simple canteen for breakfast.
No way.
Now the conditions are limited, and it can only be a big pot of rice.
Xu Changqing can't let everyone eat well, so he can only try his best to make everyone full.
Breakfast is mainly fish balls, with some gruel.
At noon, there is fish soup to drink, as well as some kelp, seaweed, sea celery, pancakes, and thick noodles steamed buns.
At night, it's still fish balls, but it's only fish balls.
This is already Xu Changqing's maximum at this time.
Of course, there is still a difference between the ordinary people and the soldiers under Xu Changqing's command, including the auxiliary soldiers, and the fishing boys.
As long as it is a man, young and strong, he can basically eat enough, and the difference is only in the type of food, mainly in the nutritional ratio.
In terms of the elderly, weak, women and children, it is slightly worse.
"Good morning, adult."
"Your Excellency."
Seeing Xu Changqing coming, the children lining up around him immediately greeted Xu Changqing one after another, with that kind of respectful and sincere eyes, without a trace of impurities, almost like facing a god.
If there was no Xu Changqing, how could they not only be fed like this, but also have a safe enough life for their wives and children?
I'm afraid I've already starved to death.
"Hehe, good morning, brothers."
Xu Changqing greeted the children with a smile one by one, and made a small joke with them from time to time to liven up the atmosphere.
In this state at this time, even if there are no conditions, we must create conditions!
Xu Changqing's purpose is not only to let the big guys eat well, but also to let the big guys have a sense of belonging to Shark Island and Xu Changqing, so as to form a correct snowball effect!
After breakfast, I rested for a while, and at the end of the hour, it was time for the drill!
Xu Changqing also realized at this time that he had forgotten the most critical link of our army in the future, that is, the morning exercise, first a cross-country five kilometers.
After all, in the era of cold weapons, physical strength is definitely one of the core elements of the battlefield!
It's just that Xu Changqing has been entangled in affairs before, and now he really has the energy to gather for military training.
At this time, with the help of Uncle Guang, Zhao Zengjin, and Ergou, including Zhang Long, Zhang Hu, Zhao Qiliang, and Wang Hongyang, the simplest sequence of the team has already taken shape.
There are also many simple wooden rakes built in the simple school yard, and the spirit of the children is also excellent.
But at this time, after all, it is quasi-wartime, and it is impossible for everyone to participate in the drill.
Xu Changqing also chatted with a group of officers for a few words, and determined the manpower to go out to investigate intelligence today, headed by Ergou, Zhang Long, Zhao Qiliang, Wang Hongyang, Zhang Mo, Miss Xu, Zhang Dagong and others, divided into more than a dozen groups, a total of more than 60 people!
These people will first take a large bamboo raft to Pig's Trotter Island, and then take a small bamboo raft and scatter to the front line of the battlefield.
Sending these sons and daughters away is the real training session!
Xu Changqing also took a spear and tried the feel.
Frankly speaking, the feel is not bad, the wooden poles are polished very smooth, but again, this spear is short!
Although one meter six or seven can also be used, it is by no means the best feel.
Xu Changqing rushed at the target several times in succession, and this feeling became more and more obvious.
But Xu Changqing's vigorous skills, strong strength, and cheetah-like explosiveness have already made the children's eyes shine and be amazed, attracting cheers.
After all, Xu Changqing's martial arts not only made the sons and daughters feel more secure, but also a sustenance of confidence and spirit.
smiled and appeased the sons and daughters a few words, and let Zhao Zengjin, Zhang Hu and other officers take them to practice first, Xu Changqing also recruited more than a dozen old craftsmen in making armor weapons and firearms, and dared to watch the sons and daughters practice with them, but also to ask their opinions.
These old craftsmen were still very afraid of Xu Changqing at first, and they didn't dare to say more, for fear that they would commit a taboo and cause Xu Changqing to be dissatisfied, which would cause them to kill themselves and their families, but with Xu Changqing's warm and watery control, these old people soon relaxed.
One of the experts in making armor and weapons, an old man in his early fifties named Yang Hong, said: "My lord, these spears are indeed short, and if you think about it, there must be something wrong with them." In this way, the soldiers will have trouble using it, and they will really go to the battlefield, and it is likely that something will happen because of this. However, it is difficult to remedy it now, we don't have so many good wood, even if we make it up, it won't feel too good. ”
"Oh?"
Xu Changqing's spirit suddenly perked up, and he looked at the old man and said, "Old man, please teach me!" Of course, as long as you can find a real solution, I, Xu Changqing, can guarantee that I will not hesitate to reward you! ”
Yang Hong was taken aback, and subconsciously knelt down.
Who would have thought that this lord would be so good at talking and saying that he would give him a reward?
Some of the other old craftsmen were also a little flustered, not knowing what to do.
After all, in this world of the Ming Dynasty, it is the first time that there are adults and masters who treat these lowly craftsmen like this.
Xu Changqing didn't expect these craftsmen to react so much, and he was busy to appease them more gently.
Seeing that Xu Changqing's demeanor did not seem to be fake, coupled with the subtle change after coming to the island, soon, these old craftsmen gradually relaxed.
Yang Hong said: "My lord, if this is the case, my old man has a way." ”
Xu Changqing was overjoyed, the effect of buying horse bones was about to be revealed, and he smiled and said, "Old man, I am willing to listen to your advice!" ”
Yang Hong also wanted to show off his attainments at this time, and he lifted his spirit and said: "My lord, it is best to use wood for the barrel of the spear, especially the ash gun, the ash is soft, strong, and stable. It can be split, stabbed, chopped, elastic, and not deformed.
But now the conditions on our island are limited, and it is impossible to find ash trees, but they can be replaced by some good bamboo materials.
The bamboo is soaked in oil and dried carefully, as long as the process is proper, even if it is not as good as the ash rod, it is almost too much! Moreover, moso bamboo is more durable than ash rods! The old man once heard that in the south, ......"
With Yang Hong's careful explanation of the old man, Xu Changqing quickly understood what he meant, and his spirits were greatly lifted.
Replacing ash rods with bamboo is definitely a feasible solution!
Even, the sharpened bamboo can be used as a weapon!
However, that can only be said to the Exile Army.
Xu Changqing and his sons need to face the enemy of the Qing army in fine armor, and this kind of soil style will definitely not work.
After these bamboos are concocted by Yang Hong's unique secret technology, they will be more carefully crafted to make the gun head!
Even, Yang Hong also commented on Xu Changqing's bamboo raft.
If the bamboo concocted by his unique secret book is used to make a bamboo raft, this sturdiness and efficiency will be greatly improved several times.
Xu Changqing has long known that bamboo will be more patient after concocting, but he is suffering from the lack of these means, and when he heard Yang Hong say it, he was also very happy in his heart.
said directly: "Old man Yang, in this way, I will leave this matter to you!" Ten days, you can make it, I will reward you with ten taels of silver! If you can make it in five days, I will reward you with twenty taels of silver! How is it? ”
"This ......"
The crowd was stunned.
Who would have thought that Xu Changqing would be so happy and so rewarded?
For a moment, Yang Hong knelt on the ground excitedly: "My lord, don't worry!" In five days, I will surely make you a batch of fine spears, old man! ”
