Everyone experimented with Lu Shi's longbow, and when they entered the house again, Zhang Laoshi had become infinitely attentive, moved a stool, carefully wiped it with its tattered sleeves, and then respectfully invited Lu Shi to sit down, which made Lu Shi embarrassed.

Originally, the cotton clothes on his body that stripped the ancients were in tatters, and there were almost no color rows, and then after two or three months through the mountains and mountains through the forest thorns, it was even more unshaped, but fortunately, the weather became warmer, Lu Shi took out the cotton wool in the cotton clothes and threw it away, and turned it into a single clothes, and once took the time to wash it carefully in a river, no longer stinking, but even so, now it is described as a cloth that does not cover the body, it is very appropriate, and now he is sitting on an honest stool. It's not that the stool stains one's own clothes, but that one's own clothes stain other people's stools.

Waiting for Lu Shi to sit down reluctantly, Zhang honestly scratched his head and cautiously tentatively said, "That, this." "I was blushing for a long time, but I couldn't speak.

Seeing Zhang's honest and embarrassed appearance, Lu Shi couldn't help but chuckle; "Brother has something to say, please come here, there is nothing to be embarrassed about."

"That's, that's." Zhang Laoshi nodded again and again, and then he didn't know what to say.

Lu Shi thought of San'er talking about his family making bows and arrows for the government, and when he thought of the attitude before and after the Zhang family tried the longbow, he understood the key at that time, and he didn't want to learn the skills of making bows? In fact, this is not a secret, as long as you observe a little, you can understand the key to the period, it's just that this honest man doesn't want to do that stealing thing.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help laughing and said, "Did the old brother ask me about the origin and production process of this longbow?" “

"The master laughs, in fact, in fact, the master doesn't say it and doesn't care." Zhang said this honestly, but his eyes were full of hope.

He could honestly see that the monk's longbow was just not conditioned to be processed, it was a shoddy thing, and if it was finely crafted, the effect might be more than ten times better than this one.

Seeing Zhang's honest expression, Lu Shi chuckled: "Actually, I figured out this thing myself, and I didn't apply for any patents." ”

"Patents?" Zhang Laoshi was very confused.

Lu Shi's mouth leaked for a while, and he hurriedly interrupted: "Actually, I call him Lu Shi's longbow for this thing, and the method is also simple, that is, to choose a good wood, of course, it is best to use a good nanmu, to try to be as uniform as possible, and then boil it in boiling tung oil for two hours, that is, an hour, and then use cow tendon or silk to make strings." ”

"Why don't you bake it over fire? Wouldn't that be faster? Zhang Laoshi raised professional questions.

Lu Shi said with a smile: "Roasting with fire will make Zamu's toughness disappear, or you can try it, just compare it." ”

Zhang Laoshi was suspicious of the letter and lowered his head to ponder.

At this time, Zhang's honest mother-in-law came in and said with a smile: "Don't talk about your archery skills, I think the master is also hungry, so let's eat first." ”

So a group of children cheered, moved the table and bench to prepare for the meal.

The dinner was not rich, after all, they were all people who had eaten the last meal but did not starve to death, so the pheasant brought by Lu Shi became the main dish.

A bowl of pheasant stewed wild vegetables, a few bowls of clear gruel that can illuminate the figure of a person, that's all.

Zhang Laoshi blushed embarrassedly and apologized again and again, and said that he was slow to treat the master, and Lu Shi was polite for a while, in fact, for him who had not seen a grain of rice for a few months and had not eaten a hot meal, this was already a supreme delicacy, and his stomach had already sung a hymn, just waiting for Zhang Laoshi to finish the master's cutscene and start eating.

After Zhang Laoshi entertained the guests for a while, the men in the family followed the ancient rules, divided the guests and hosts, respected the elders and the young, and sat down, waiting for Zhang Laoshi to announce the opening of the meal.

In this era, women are not qualified to serve at the table, Lu Shi saw the little girl of the Zhang family from a distance, they were all thin and could not see the shape of a person under the ragged clothes, and hid behind their old lady timidly, biting their fingers, revealing half of their little heads, and greedily looking at the only fat chicken on the table and swallowing saliva.

In this patriarchal supremacy, the succession of a family is the first, in this time when there is no food, it is a blessing that the girl is not sold, this little girl may not have eaten a full meal for several years like her mother, let alone meat.

Lu Shi's nose was sour for no reason, thinking of his sister in the later life, that was the treasure of the family, that was the absolute princess, where would she almost bite off her fingers for a chicken leg?

Zhang Laoshi tore off a chicken leg in accordance with the way of hospitality, put it in Lu Shi's bowl, and said politely with a smile: "Since the master has broken the precept and left the mountain gate, don't worry about it, come, eat a chicken leg first." ”

In the envious eyes of a few boys, Lu Shi stood up and picked up the chicken leg, came to the girl behind the sister-in-law of the Zhang family, squatted down and smiled: "Little sister, my brother is a monk, and I can't eat meat and fish, so how about asking my little sister to eat this chicken leg for the master?" ”

The girl was frightened and shy, and tried to dodge behind her mother, not daring to reach out to pick it up, but her eyes could no longer leave the chicken leg.

The lady of the Zhang family kept pushing and conceding, saying that the child was still young and couldn't eat meat, and the little girl also said timidly: "Master, my mother said that girls can't eat meat, so the Bodhisattva won't like it." ”

This made Lu Shi only try to hold back his tears, not to let himself cry in front of outsiders, he just stuffed a chicken leg into the hands of this sensible child, and tried to chuckle and said: "The little girl is a bodhisattva and must be pampered, how about you take some sins for the monk?" ”

"Thank you, master, thank you, master." Seeing that Lu Shi was sincere, the lady of the Zhang family thanked him one after another, this was originally the food of his Zhang family, but he wanted to thank Lu Shi, and Lu Shi was even more sad.

Turning his head and secretly touching his tears, he stood up and returned to his seat, and said with a forced smile: "Disturb big brother, can we have a meal?" ”

Zhang honestly read everything, suppressed his sadness, and said with a forced smile: "It's just coarse tea and light rice, master, please use it." So a few of them began to eat.

It is said that it is coarse tea and light rice are all high about this meal, the bowl of gruel that I don't know what kind of wild vegetables and clear rice grains are counted, and there is no salt taste at all when I drink it in my mouth, and the bitterness does not go away for a long time between my mouths and cheeks, and a few grass roots that I don't know what it is, let Lu Shi chew it a few times and couldn't chew it, so he barely stretched his neck and swallowed it.

In fact, light food is also helpless, Lu Shi didn't know that in that world, a pound of salt for a dollar was a luxury for the small people at this time.

In Shaanxi, Mongolia does have salt ponds, but the Tartars do not know how to develop, Gansu Lake Salt (now it is still Shaanxi, there is no Gansu to say) that is the official sale, layer by layer, layer by layer, where is the Shengdou small people can eat? Some salt dealers have trafficked in some Shandong sea salt, and the price is relatively low, but one or two taels of salt and half a tael of sand, even so, it is hundreds of dollars a catty.

Hundreds of dollars? For the small people of Shengdou, they are all huge riches that they have never seen.

Looking at the sensible children who kept having chopsticks reaching out to the fat chicken but immediately turned around, Lu Shi wanted to cry, it seems that this fat chicken doesn't eat it himself, and it can be served like this for countless days. So Lu Shiqiang smiled and stretched out his chopsticks to clip a small piece, but chewing it in his mouth tasted the same as chewing wax.

During the meal, Lu Shi had a conversation with Zhang honestly without saying a word.

I can't eat this wild vegetable rice in vain, I must do something for this family, I don't have the ability and opportunity to change history, then, change the Zhang family, who gave me a meal, but it's still possible, Lu Shi thought secretly.

Since Lu Shi was taken home by the Zhang family, he had a little idea, he was also a member of the homeless people, and he wanted to rely on his own crossing to do something to improve his life, or more precisely, to live, but he had no place to stand, and no manpower conditions.

But now it's different, now it's spent in the Zhang family, the Zhang family not only has land, but also has the help of these laborers in front of them, with their knowledge in hundreds of years, they can finally do something, and they should do something for this honest family.

What's more, he was alone, and he was immediately in turmoil and chaos in the Ming Dynasty, and he decided to go to the south to be a rich man, but he went all the way south, but he didn't say that he was penniless, even if he did, if he wanted to pass through the layers of resistance of the homeless robber pole and so on, and walk to the south with his whole body, it would be a fool's dream.

Don't go first, use your own knowledge, plant the land, and make food, not only saved the Zhang family, but also stayed by yourself, perhaps, in this troubled world, it is also a good idea to live with a family who has been hospitable to you.

Tartar? What am you doing with me? Li Zicheng? What are you doing with me? The Han family is still well-dressed? I'm just a small person, I have the heart to change history, but do I have the power to change history? Rolling the giant wheel of history, I'm just an ant, even if there is no me, the Han family has experienced the Mengyuan and the Manchu Dynasty, in fact, it is still there, who said that there is no China after Yashan? The Han language, the Han bloodline, and the Hakka essence are constantly inherited, and finally the great man called out, drove out the Tartars and returned me to China, which is still a brilliant China.

So, now, if you don't starve to death, that's what you're doing, and if you don't let the people who love me in front of you starve to death, you're going to do my business, and you're ambitious? Survival first.

While he was thinking wildly, a loud voice outside the door of Zhangjiayuan startled Lu Shi.

"Okay, you are honest and slippery, you have chicken soup stewed at home, but you have forgotten that I am a hungry man, why are you so unkind? called you Zhang Honest in vain. As he spoke, a tall man blocked the sunlight from the entire door.
