Chapter Fifty-Nine: In the Mines
A magical scene appeared, a small bottle of grape wine, after being drunk by more than 20 people, when the wine bottle was passed into Jia Yi's hand, there was a small sip of wine in it, looking at the funny appearance of twenty people all closing their mouths to enjoy the grape brewing in their mouths to stimulate their taste buds, Jia Yi drank the wine in the wine bottle in one sip, and said loudly: "Hurry up and drink, hurry up and work, as long as everyone works hard, I promise that everyone will have meat to eat and wine to drink every day in the future." ”
"Roaring ......"
The attraction of fine wine to soldiers is fatal, just a small bottle of grape wine makes all the soldiers' minds come to Jia Yi.
Jia Yi, who knew that he was destined to sleep here tonight, told Jia Er to go back and prepare something for him and dinner for the big guys, and then began to command everyone to build a house.
Because he wasted half a day's time, he only built a room in the afternoon, which means that Jia Yi didn't have to sleep on the floor tonight.
The sky is getting dark, everyone is hungry, and they don't work as hard as they did at the beginning, everyone is listless, looking at the appearance of these people, Jia gave an order one by one, announcing that today is over.
The next thing is to take a bath, after a whole day's work, all covered in mud, full of sweat, how to eat and sleep without washing, Jia Yi ordered everyone to go into the river to wash well, and he also untied his clothes and went into the river.
When the smooth and slippery people came up from the river, Jia Er had already pulled several big carriages and stopped at the edge of the only house on the shore, and the people on the carriage began to unload things from the car, and the twenty-one beds were the only goods of these carriages, and then Jia Er began to move food boxes down from the car, and having a window is equivalent to having a table, and a food box was placed on each bed, which was the food for the big guy tonight.
Twenty-one beds, except for Jia Yi's was put into the house, the remaining twenty were in a circle, and a bonfire was lit in the circle, and the faces of each soldier who ate with oily faces were full of satisfied smiles, drinking chilled grape stuff, eating delicious stir-fried vegetables, their life as an absolute emperor was just like this, and they were also full of gratitude to Jia Yi, it was Jia Yi who let them eat their full meal, and let them eat such a delicious meal.
The soldiers are simple, they are willing to sacrifice their lives for the country for three meals a day, not to mention the strength of a single arm, not to mention this kind of food that they have never thought of, which makes them feel valued, and everyone's heart involuntarily gets closer to Jia Yi, and begins to really treat Jia Yi as a commander.
A small bottle of grape wine, not to mention these soldiers who are like wine vats, even Jia Yi may not be able to get drunk, but the twenty soldiers are lying on their beds with smiles on their faces after drinking, and soon fall asleep.
Jia Yi reluctantly picked up a bag full of sulfur and began to slowly scatter it around the entire circle, in the wilderness, especially by the river full of water snakes, although those water snakes are not necessarily poisonous, but whoever is bitten in his sleep will not be in a good mood.
Jia Er had already gone back, and Jia Yi asked him to come over tomorrow to deliver the meal when he took away the dishes and chopsticks that had been perfected today, so he was the only one left to sprinkle sulfur now.
Suddenly, a tall figure appeared beside Jia Yi, he smiled at Jia Yi, and snatched the bag in Jia Yi's hand, the bag of fifty or sixty catties was not much heavier than five or six catties in his hand, and the big hand like a fan casually grabbed a handful from the bag and threw it out, covering a full square meter of range.
"Hong Liang, are you a pig, why do you sprinkle such a large area, just sprinkle a circle around the place where the big guy sleeps, just your kind of sprinkling, that bit of sulfur is not enough at all, do you want to go back to the city in person?"
After hearing Jia Yi's shout, he scratched his head embarrassedly, and began to follow Jia Yi's example, sprinkling sulfur little by little, until the two people met, and the sulfur in his hands was completely closed on the ground, and a small circle wrapped the sleeping soldier in this way.
"Okay, there's no need to be on duty here, go back to sleep, and you'll have to work tomorrow."
"Okay, you should go to bed early, too."
Returned to his room and lay on the bed, although the wooden bed was very hard, and the back of the diaphragm hurt, but Jia Yi felt very satisfied, the special treatment is what everyone wants to have, when everyone is in the open wilderness, he can sleep in the house, and he can have a sense of superiority in his heart.
It's a pity that the house is a good house, but there are no doors and windows, and the sound insulation effect is also very poor, Jia Yi hasn't fallen asleep yet, there was a thunder outside, and he glanced at the sky outside from the window, the sky was full of stars, there were no dark clouds, and it stands to reason that there should be no thunder.
Jia Yi's doubts had just risen, and there was a different thunder outside, this time Jia Yi was very clear, where was the thunder, it was clear that the gang outside was snoring, but the snoring was too loud.
After a while, the twenty soldiers were like a game, snoring loudly, Jia Yi, who was sleeping in the room, felt like he was sleeping in a mine array, and there was a shocking loud noise, so that he couldn't sleep at all, he could only open his eyes and look at the dark roof, speechless.
It wasn't until dawn that the gang finally fell into a light sleep, and the snoring became much quieter.
When it was dark, Jia Yi walked out of the room with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, looked at his subordinates who were jumping around outside the room and were doing chaotic movements, and announced the assembly angrily.
This time, everyone stood straight, and the queue was very neat.
"Add a morning exercise in the morning, start running at dawn, jog for five miles, and be eternal."
Jia Yi's order was perfectly executed, five miles, or jogging, it was a warm-up for these killers, and when they ran back, breakfast had been sent by Jia Er, and there was nothing greasy in the morning, just a bowl of porridge, an egg, plus a scallion pancake, and some side dishes.
For Jia Yi and Jia Er, this can only be regarded as commonplace, but for these bitter soldiers, this level of breakfast has not been eaten a few times in their dreams.
After breakfast, the movement to build the house began again, and after the initial run-in, there was a certain cooperation, and the efficiency of the work became much faster, and three houses were built in one day.
On the third day, with more experience, the people worked together to build seven houses, and in just three days, everyone had a house to live in.
The rich food brought by Jia Yi made each soldier's body unusually strong, and carrying a weight of 100 catties was like playing, which was easy and freehand.
On the fourth day, the salt workshop began to be built, because there was a lot of equipment, so the house was built a lot bigger, and it took 20 people a whole day to build a huge factory, all the equipment was put into the factory, and after the warehouse was built, the salt production plan began.
After staying on the construction site for three days, Jia Yi finally couldn't help but feel sleepy on the fourth day, climbed into the carriage brought by Jia Er, and walked slowly towards the city, without the earth-shattering snoring, after Jia Yi climbed into the carriage, he fell asleep as soon as possible, when the carriage arrived, how he got to his soft bed, he didn't know anything about these things.
When Jia Yi opened his eyes, the sun outside was already in the west, and due to the lack of sleep for several days, his opened eyes were sore for a while, but since he woke up, Jia Yi didn't plan to sleep again, met with the Lin family, said hello, and walked towards Qingyun Inn.
I haven't seen him for a few days, and Jia Yi is still very concerned about the progress of the canned food.
When Jia Yi came to the backyard of Qingyun Inn, the original mountains of fruits there disappeared directly, leaving only a few large pots of fruits still boiling under hot water.
"It's not slow." Jia Yi said to Shen Qingyun beside him.
"Of course, I don't look at who found these people."
"Come on, look at what you're showing, it's been four or five days, have you eaten the canned food you got at the beginning?"
Whether the cans can be stored is Jia Yi's biggest concern, and seeing that the workflow is normal, the object of concern is converted to the cans as soon as possible.
"I ate it, it tasted exactly the same as on the first day, and the soup tasted better."
"That's good, the fruit from my Sifang Inn will also be transported over quickly to make canned food."
After arranging everything here, Jia Yi took a cart of fruits and drove to the riverside factory area again.
The soldiers who had already finished work dragged their tired bodies to Jia Yi's carriage, and when they were distributing fruits, Jia Yi walked into the factory.
All the equipment for making salt is installed in the factory, and tomorrow we can start making salt as soon as we build a warehouse for storing table salt and a warehouse for making glass materials.
"Lieutenant, we've run out of materials to build the house, and we won't be able to build a warehouse tomorrow." Just when Jia Yi thought that everything could go smoothly, Hong Liang finally brought bad news.
"Running out so quickly? At the beginning, I emptied all the materials of the workshop in the city, and now the warehouse has not been built, so why is it gone? After all, Jia Yi did not study architecture, so it was impossible to accurately judge how many materials were needed to build such a building, and now that the materials were gone, his brows were tightly wrinkled.
