Chapter 423 Preparing to Leave (Five Watches)
Chapter 423 After Qin Huaidao sent away the dog leftovers, he went to the land where he had opened up the wasteland, and now the potato seedlings are still very good, and the fields are short of water, but those eaters will come here to water almost every day, and those potatoes can be harvested.
However, Qin Huaidao looked at the seedlings very well, and Qin Huaidao dug the land and found that there were many small potatoes below, Qin Huaidao had never planted potatoes, thinking that there were such small ones below, it was estimated that they would be able to grow again.
And the seedlings of those sweet potatoes are also very good, the first batch of sweet potatoes grow very well, Qin Huaidao dug the soil, and there are all sweet potatoes below.
"Master, can you really eat this?" The old man who was in charge of taking care of Qin Huaidao's sweet potatoes came to Qin Huaidao's side and asked.
"Of course you can eat it. When it's time to excavate, I'll steam some here and invite everyone to eat when the time comes! Qin Huaidao nodded with a smile and said.
"That's good, it's time for winter wheat now, but, this day, there is no sign of rain, sir, next year there will be a drought, but can we do it?" The old man looked at the sky worriedly and said, it has not rained for three consecutive months, and the ground is dry.
"Well, the government has already prepared food for you next year, and you won't be hungry!" Qin Huaidao nodded and said.
"The master is kind-hearted, we can't always rely on the master to raise it, thinking that if we can do it, everyone will plant this next year, but we can't just think about eating at home." The old man stood there, sighing.
"Well, good! By the way, the cotton harvest is there, I'll take it back later! Qin Huaidao said to the old man.
"Inside the house, according to the master's orders, they are all dried, and we haven't moved those seeds! Too many seeds! The old man heard Qin Huaidao's words and nodded.
"Well, take a good look at these crops! Whether there will be a famine next year depends on this! Qin Huaidao said to the old man, and the old man nodded,
Soon Qin Huaidao went back with a few carts of cotton, and when he arrived at home, Qin Huaidao immediately asked the carpenter to build a few lifting machines, which were hand-cranked, and squeezed those cotton seeds with two wooden sticks.
It's done, Qin Huaidao asked the maids to start shedding the seeds, and those maids didn't know what Qin Huaidao was going to do, but they were also very curious when they saw those seeds being squeezed out one by one.
"This is a good thing, cold materials, you will know when the time comes, the master will prepare some things in the next few days!" Qin Huaidao smiled and said to Li Lixian,
Li Lixian didn't take it seriously, and then Qin Huaidao began to design several textile machines, all of which were hand-cranked and spun with those cotton, and after they were done, Qin Huaidao took a few maids in the yard and began to experiment, and after a while, those maids would also be able to spin threads.
"Hey, this is good, and you can spin thread!" Li Lixian came over and squatted down to watch.
"This can knit sweaters, will it, if not, I'll teach you, master, in addition, this can be made into quilts, I want to make a few sets of quilts!" Qin Huaidao said to Li Lixian with a smile.
"Knitting sweaters? How to do it? Li Lixian heard it, looked at Qin Huaidao curiously and asked.
"Well, you wait for me to be free, now I'm not free, just get out of the line, in addition, I don't think I can stay at home for a few days, these days, I still have to do things!" Qin Huaidao said to Li Lixian.
"Oh, is the master going to get pig iron?" Li Lixian heard it, and looked at Qin Huaidao a little unhappily and said, but he couldn't say anything yet, he had to go to this task sent by her father.
"Hmm!" Qin Huaidao nodded, and in the next few days, Qin Huaidao began to make the tool for playing quilts, teaching the subordinates in the house to make quilts.
At the same time, he also asked Li Lixian to make a quilt cover, and at the same time, he also asked his subordinates to get a lot of glass from the mirror workshop, and Qin Huaidao made a few greenhouses in the back garden, which is estimated to have half an acre of land and cost a lot of money.
Qin Huaidao told the family in the house that they could now grow vegetables in the greenhouse, spinach, greens, peppers, cucumbers, leeks, garlic, green onions, Qin Huaidao told the housekeeper to plant them.
Because he may not come back so soon, how can he still need a month, so now he needs to sow seeds, but Qin Huaidao can't continue to drag it out, and the rest time is long enough.
After ordering those things, Qin Huaidao went to find Cheng Chuhei, Cheng Chuliang, Cheng Chucun, and Yu Chi Baoqi, Fang Yiai, Li Dexian, and Zhang Shenzheng went to Qinfu Restaurant to eat together, or that box.
"Pepin, but something good?" As soon as Zhang Shenzheng came in, he said to Qin Huaidao with a smile.
"Do you have a treat?" Cheng Chusi next to him smiled and said a word.
"I'll please!" Zhang Shenzheng was also stubborn, before he came, his father learned about it, and immediately asked him to come over, saying that Qin Huaidao must have something good to find him, because he knew that Qin Huaidao had gone to get that steel, and at this time, he would gather those brothers for dinner, so he must have done this.
"Count yourself on the sight!" Cheng said with a smile.
"Get away, I summoned it, please, what's the matter? Next time! Qin Huaidao sat there and said with a smile.
"Hey, close the door!" Cheng then said to Zhang Shenzheng.
"What are you doing with the door?" Qin Huaidao looked at Cheng Zhihei incomprehensibly.
"Ask you something, I didn't dare to go to your house to ask before, but this time, I need to ask, how do you plan to deal with Li Zhi's matter? That's it? Cheng Zhisi stared at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"That's it, do you want to yin him, in Jinju, we also have people, and it's not impossible to play him slowly." Zhang Shenzheng also sat down and whispered.
"What are you playing, get a few bandits, just kill him, and dare to assassinate? It's really bold, how much did you Pepin do for the royal family? Well? And assassinate you? At first, I thought it was someone from the family who did it, but I never dreamed that he did it! Li Decheng was sitting there at the moment, saying very angrily.
"What are you talking about? Stop, don't talk about this, Your Majesty is still there! Qin Huaidao immediately asked them to change the topic, are you kidding, isn't it,
A few of them discussed here how to deal with the emperor's son, and even said that they would kill him, and if this spread out, it would be worth it.
"Don't talk about this in the future, I know in my heart that this time I called everyone to ask everyone if they would like to go out for a month, less than two months!" Qin Huaidao looked at them with a smile and asked.
"Pig iron, hey, hey, hey!" Cheng Zhiji heard it and said with a smile.
"That's got to be this!" Zhang Shenzheng also said happily.
"Hey, hey~" The others were also smiling happily.
"Can you stop laughing and ask you something, do you want to go?" Qin Huaidao looked at them proudly and said, knowing that they definitely wanted to go.
"Boping, the iron mine is about 100 miles away from here, don't worry, I will let you eat the wine and food of Qinfu Restaurant every day!" Cheng Chusi patted his chest and said to Qin Huaidao.
", how about I bring a cook myself?" Qin Huaidao rolled his eyes helplessly at Cheng Chuhei.
"Oh yes!" Cheng is right to think about it, there is still a shortage of cooks in the Qin Mansion?
"To go or not?" Qin Huaidao looked at them with a smile and asked.
"Go!" Several people nodded at once,
The last time Captain Chi Baolin was rewarded, they looked at it hotly, their son had not yet been born, and a viscount was in hand, they were these people, who didn't envy them, although they also have a title, but they also hope that their children will have a title,
As the saying goes, it is better to have no official than no knight, and the title is too important!
"Okay, then it's decided, let's set off tomorrow, bring the cold supplies, don't get cold, this time, we still mobilize 3,000 guards to set off."
In addition, each person will set off with at least 100 family soldiers, and it will be easy to work when the time comes, and once it is done, everyone's reward will definitely not be less. Qin Huaidao said to them with a smile, and they were also happy,
Of course I know, if it is successful, then there will definitely be a reward, after the meal, Qin Huaidao returned to the Qin Mansion to sleep,
Early the next morning, Qin Huaidao got up early and ordered the soldiers to prepare, and at the same time asked someone to inform Wei Chi Jingde that he was going to mobilize 3,000 soldiers to set off, so that he could prepare supplies for the cold.
Then let the soldiers go to the workshop of the Ministry of Industry to transport all those tools out, Qin Huaidao handed over a lot of drawings to the workshop of the Ministry of Industry before, and asked them to build tools.
After the order was given, Qin Huaidao rode to the palace, and when he arrived at the Ganlu Palace, after Wang En saw Qin Huaidao, he smiled and arched his hand to Qin Huaidao: "Hu Guogong, please inside, Your Majesty knows that you are coming today!" ”
"Hey, hey. Thank you! Qin Huaidao hugged his fist at Wang En, and walked in with a smile.
"Yo, are you resting?" Li Shimin saw Qin Huaidao coming over, and asked with a smile.
"If I don't go again, it is estimated that my father will issue a holy decree to scold." Qin Huaidao said with a smile.
"Well, no, don't worry, come, come to the tearoom and sit, I guess, Lixian doesn't know what to say about my father in her heart." Li Shimin said to Qin Huaidao very happily.
"No, how can it?" Qin Huaidao immediately waved his hand and said.
"My daughter, I understand, you don't cover for her." Li Shimin pointed at Qin Huaidao with a smile and said, and then went to the teahouse,
Li Shimin sat down and began to make tea for Qin Huaidao, the weather is a little cold now, but there is still no sign of rain.
"Peping, this year's drought is set, next year, I can count on your sweet potatoes, otherwise, next year, the harvest in the northwest eight provinces will be lost, then it will be fatal, those sweet potatoes, how are they now?" After Li Shimin sat down, he didn't ask Qin Huaidao about pig iron, but about sweet potatoes.
"No problem, it's enough, the people will definitely not be hungry at that time, and if a family plants an acre of land, no one will starve to death!" Qin Huaidao said with great certainty.
"Well, that's good, by the way, when will you collect it?" Li Shimin looked at Qin Huaidao and asked.
"This, father, son-in-law is still thinking about this matter, I was supposed to accept it now, but I see that those seconds are okay, I just thought, it's okay to be late for a while, it's frosty, then you must accept it!" Qin Huaidao sat there and said to Li Shimin.
