Chapter 157: Time flies

As soon as Huang Sheng returned, he took all the soldiers to practice their combat skills in the extreme cold, and paid special attention to the care and maintenance of weapons. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After actual combat exercises, it was found that the maintenance requirements of the flintlock pistol in the cold winter of the ninth count are more difficult, and dropping a little ice and snow into the primer pot will affect the firing rate.

Fortunately, the musketeers were all disciplined and knowledgeable youths, and they knew the shortcomings of the flintlock rifling gun, and they were doubly careful when using it, and usually wrapped this part of the primer pot with oiled canvas, which also led to a sharp decrease in the rate of successful firing.

The Huang family has produced a large amount of wool, hundreds of women are spinning, dyeing, and weaving sweaters, and the soldiers add a thick sweater to the cotton armor to make it much warmer.

In this era, there was no such thing as a sweater, and it was Huang Sheng's ingenious women who brainstormed and shaped a few simple and practical weaves, and then taught all women.

Huang Sheng himself doesn't know how to knit sweaters at all, but he often sees his wife weaving, and he knows the general procedure.

It's just that no one thought that clothes could be woven like this, after Huang Sheng slightly mentioned it, everything fell into place, and now the women of the Huang family have studied a lot of flower needles.

The sweater series products can not only meet the needs of the military, but also began to be sold in Beijing to form sales, and to the families on the island to obtain a way to generate labor income.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the five years of the hectic apocalypse are about to pass.

The Huang family has the strength, and has long begun to recruit a large number of talents, of course, it is not the talent of the Ming Dynasty, but the workers of the Ming Dynasty, as long as the Huang family has a skill, they will be taken in.

Before Huang Sheng reached the strength to guide the country, he did not dare or was unwilling to accept the scholars to serve the Huang family, because these people were famous. They all have the ability to be self-reliant, and they also have the possibility of becoming an official master.

The possibility of them becoming loyal members of the Huang family is too small, and if they even bring those who are not scholars to the Huang family, they will make the teenagers they cultivate at a loss, and Huang Sheng will of course avoid them.

At present, the Huang family is too small and the population is not large, so it is not possible to contend with a hundred schools of thought, and can only retain one voice. Education is also pragmatic, focusing on dealing with Jiannu, supplemented by making the people of the Huang family rich.

The two islands already have more than 5,000 permanent soldiers and civilians, and Huangjiashan Island has more than 1,000.

At the end of the year, Huang Sheng took the team to Huangjiashan Island to have a party with everyone, paid a visit to the early years, sent benefits and bonuses, and introduced his second concubine Lan Caier to everyone.

The big housekeeper of Huangjiashan Island is Qiaozhen, the technical director is Gu Shanhai, there are two hundred Xiangyong, and three hundred men who often practice, they all have the standard weapons of the Ming army, and Huang Sheng also equipped them with a hundred Lumi guns.

Two hundred people were issued with cotton armor from the Ming army, and one hundred people received leather armor and iron armor from the Ming army. Such a 500-person township brave militia group, when defending the territory, the Ming army's border army is not an opponent, and Jiannu will suffer a loss if he comes to a cow.

The Huang family is very good, and the warriors who fight are equipped with their own finely crafted armor and weapons, and the things they get from the Ming military depot only meet the standards of equipping the township brave militia group.

The warships between the two islands come and go frequently, and the distance is only one hundred and fifty nautical miles, and the warships of the Huang family will arrive in less than a day and night, so Huangjiashan Island is safe.

It was already the twenty-seventh month of the month when she returned, and the beauty Lan Caier had not yet eased up in the warm atmosphere of Huangjiashan Island, and she was a little bird snuggling in the arms of the old man and chirping.

"Master, the slave family is so happy, I can't imagine that our Huang family has so many people! They all worship the lord so much! ”

"The population is still too small, and the territory is still not big enough! There is no way to produce food in the fields, and there is no food and instability! We must always find a way to build a tuntian location, and at least 500,000 mu must be there to be a little bit of interest. ”

"Huh? Master, it's not easy for you now, what are you going to do in such a big place? ”

After all, Hexiang and Lan Cai'er's living environment are different, and she is not too embarrassed to cling to her son when there are other people. There are several women in the cabin, white peony and white hibiscus.

She said with a smile: "Our Huang family will definitely be able to seal the marquis immediately in the future, of course, we must raise soldiers and support the people, Sister Cai'er must hurry up, and strive to give birth to a few little marquis is serious." ”

"Sister, sister, how dare Mr. son! Of course, I have to hold on to my sister first! Of course, Hexiang can't be an opponent when she makes such a joke with Lan Cai'er, she herself is already red-faced.

Huang Sheng gently twisted Cai'er's pretty face, and the little woman was very clever and immediately grimaced with Hexiang to say goodbye.

"White Peony, White Hibiscus, how are you writing the script, can you start rehearsing after the New Year?"

"Master, we have more than a dozen sisters working together, each of us has an outline to write a play, and we are almost done, and we will start rehearsing at the beginning of the first month." White Peony Road.

Somehow, this thorny peony flower just likes to stay by the master's side, even if he doesn't have anything to say, he likes to follow, as if he feels more comfortable when he sees the old man at any time.

Now that there is another concubine room next to the master, it stands to reason that she should avoid it, but she is reluctant to leave the master's surroundings.

"Cai'er, you will play the protagonist Yun Niang, and White Peony will play Yue Xianggong."

Cai'er saw that the master was really willing to send things to make fun for her, and said, "Thank you, master, the slave family must play this role well." ”

Huang Sheng saw Bai Furong's stunned look and smiled: "Bai Furong also plays Yue Xianggong in men's clothes, I don't know how many performances I will have in the future, everyone will come in turns, don't overwork and make the master feel distressed." ”

The two big women immediately blushed and lowered their heads in joy. "Cai'er, there should be some of the four personal maids you brought who are well trained, right? Choose two to play Yun Niang, don't work too hard, if you are too busy to have time to accompany the master, you will lose a lot. ”

"Hey! The slave listens to the master, and the two girls Mei'er and Yi'er will definitely be competent. ”

'Nine Heavens' Lan Meiniang knows how to be a person, and gave her all the people who used to serve Lan Cai'er as a dowry. So Cai'er has four personal maids, four rough maids, two maids and two mothers-in-law.

In the Chinese New Year's Eve, the auditorium on Huangjiawan Island is lit up, hung with festive red lanterns, and the red light reflects smiling faces, and more than 1,000 people sitting on a hundred large round seats here are far from meeting the needs of the island, because there are 4,000 military and civilian small houses, and everyone wants to follow the family master to say goodbye to the old year.

There is no way to only have everyone evenly, anyway, the soldiers and civilians on the island have no food and hunger, and everyone no longer cares about eating more, the picture is a celebration.
