Chapter 26: It Won't Be Cold This Winter

"What has Li Ke been doing in Qizhou recently, and has he already contacted the Shandong family?" Eldest Sun Wuji asked.

During this time, Li Ke became obsessed with hunting, and took people to hunt for pleasure in the mountains every day. There was no contact with the Shandong family at all. The person in front of the eldest grandson Wuji spoke.

"You must closely monitor his every move, and if you find any of his moves, you must tell the old man as soon as possible." Eldest Sun Wuji opened his mouth and said.

The eldest grandson Wuji has never reassured Li Ke, and I don't know how many people were sent to Qizhou to monitor Li Ke's every move. for fear that Li Ke would secretly become bigger and threaten Li Chengqian's position.

Now hearing that Li Ke is just hunting for pleasure every day, this makes the eldest grandson Wuji feel relieved. After all, a gentleman will not have any development.

But how did the eldest grandson Wuji know that Li Ke's daily hunting for pleasure was just a pretense. But the real intention is to train the Thousand Buddha Mountain Iron Armor Army in the Thousand Buddha Mountain.

During this time, Li Ke has been going to the Thousand Buddha Mountains in the name of hunting. Intensive training for those suitable candidates selected by Guo Wang for him.

Now the initial results have been seen, and nearly 200 people have completed the bronze level enhancement. Li Ke divided these people into two and formed two special teams.

One was handed over to Li Yin by Li Ke and became a member of the Xuantan organization. After all, it is not so easy for a purely commercial organization to branch out in Datang.

Therefore, there must be relative military support in order not to be bullied by others. And with these bronze-level warriors, Li Ke was somewhat relieved.

Li Ke sent another group of people to various places and asked them to form intelligence organizations in various places. Collect information for Li Ke in his favor.

As a qualified special combat unit, I naturally have a good understanding of the role of intelligence. Without the support of first-hand information, no matter how strong you are, it is inevitable that you will be calculated by others one day.

……

"Lord Wang, I have recently found a lot of suspicious people in Qizhou City, and they all seem to have come for the Lord Wang." Gao Kan said to Li Ke.

"Sure enough, as expected by this king, some people are still not very comfortable with this king." Li Ke said with a smile.

"Lord Wang, do you need your subordinates to bring people to dispose of them all?" Gao Kan opened his mouth and asked Li Ke.

"Don't worry about them, having them in Qizhou City is the best protection for this king." Li Ke waved his hand and said to Gao Kan.

Just as Li Ke and Gao Kan were talking, Yue'er walked in with a brazier. put it in front of Li Ke and said: "Your Highness, it's really getting colder and colder this day, hurry up and come over to roast the fire." ”

Now that winter is about to begin, the weather in Qizhou is not so warm. Although it can't reach the cold of the Northeast, it is also very difficult.

Especially when you sleep at night, even if you are covered with a quilt, you will feel very cold. The point is that at this time, there are no quilts at all.

Because cotton at this time, it has not been found that it can be used for warmth. And there is no large-scale planting, but it is cultivated as an ornamental flower by others.

And most of the people choose to keep out the cold, in addition to animal skins, is to wear more clothes. Kapok and catkins are even added to linen clothes to increase the warmth effect.

Seeing the brazier in front of him, Li Ke said on a whim: "Gao Kan, you go and order someone to prepare these things for this king." Send a few more people over to help the king. ”

After Li Ke finished speaking, he picked up the pen and wrote the list bit by bit. Give it to Gao Kan and let him prepare.

Although Gao Kan didn't understand why Li Ke wanted these things, he still didn't hesitate to prepare for Li Ke.

Not long after, more than a dozen forbidden soldiers came to see Li Ke. Li Ke ordered them to lift the bed in the room to the side. And a very spacious area was cleared.

Soon Gao Kan also came back with what Li Ke wanted. So Li Ke immediately began to command everyone to move.

What is Li Ke going to do? I guess everyone has already thought of it. Yes, Li Ke wants to set up a kang in his room.

In the previous life, Li Ke, when he was on a mission in the north, he had seen the way this kang was set up with his own eyes. He also participated in the erection of a fire kang.

Therefore, the natural and familiar command of Gao Kan and others was busy. It took a whole morning to finally complete the erection of the kang.

Li Ke ordered someone to fetch firewood and lit it in the kang. As the vigorous flames began to burn, bursts of heat rose on the surface of the fire kang.

The people in the Assassin's Mansion who didn't know thought that Li Ke's room was on fire, and they came to put out the fire with buckets and basins. When they arrived, they realized that all this was done by Li Ke.

……

The next morning, the kang finally burned dry. Li Ke ordered people to spread straw mats on the kang. Then he sat down.

The warm fire kang made Li Ke feel comfortable for a while, so he opened his mouth and said to Gao Kan and Yue'er: "You guys also come and give it a try, this winter will not be cold anymore." ”

Gao Kan and Yue'er also walked over curiously, and then they discovered the advantages of this fire kang. This can make Yue'er happy enough.

"Lord Wang, can your subordinates set up a fire kang for their brothers in the garrison of the forbidden army. That way, the brothers wouldn't have to huddle together at night to keep warm. Gao Kan opened his mouth and asked Li Ke.

"Of course, you can ask the butler to bring in some craftsmen. Put all the dwellings of all the people in the Assassin's Mansion on the fire. Li Ke said with a smile.

Li Ke's words made the entire Assassin's Mansion lively. All the rooms where the people live began to set up ondols.

Those masons who were invited to set up a fire kang in the Assassin's Mansion can be regarded as having learned the technique of setting up a fire kang in their hands.

When the kang in the Assassin's Mansion was finished, they began to set up the kang in their own homes. This also allows more people to know the benefits of this ondol.

So these masons became a stearful commodity, and there should have been nothing to do in the winter. But it makes them even busier than in the summer.

……

However, Li Ke was not in the mood to care about those, but sat on the hot kang and enjoyed his comfortable life.

Although Li Ke had an expression of enjoyment, he had no real enjoyment in his heart. Because Li Ke knew in his heart that he had too many ways to go.

And now that he is on the cusp of the storm, not only are there many other people's eyeliner in Qizhou City, but they are secretly paying attention to themselves.

Even the subordinates in the Assassin's Mansion were sent by others. In order to find out Li Ke's every move.

Although Li Ke knew it, Li Ke didn't move them. However, their every move did not escape Li Ke's surveillance.

Everything they reported to their masters was also what Li Ke wanted to let the other party know through them.
