Chapter 536: Iron Rope Cold Outside Willow Village
"One-two, one-two...... Let's rest first, everyone listen to me, we now have a difficult task, that is, to rescue the trapped Xiao friends in the old willow village, by the way, we are there to help the local people rebuild their homes, where the terrain is high, we will live there for a while, is there anyone who is afraid and misses Daddy? ”
In order to make way for the county seat to be rebuilt, Xiaobei led more than 300 children out of the county seat, so that the working adults would not be distracted. That's it~
It's a pity that before they ran out to three miles, some children cried to find their parents, Xiaobei had to stop and wave his talent to fool a group of Xiao children under the age of twelve into obedience.
Those over the age of twelve stayed in the county to help.
Seeing Xiao Bei stop, holding a loudspeaker in his hand and shouting, the crying children quieted down almost instantly, crying and laughing Jiao is every child's ability.
Xiao Bei smiled with satisfaction, swept his eyes around, pointed to a Xiao boy in the team with his hand, and continued to shout: "I saw a Xiao fart child who is not a man still wiping his tears, it's really ashamed, even our female baby is not as good, it's him." ”
"I, I didn't." The gaze of a group of Xiao children made the pointed boy unbearable, and hurriedly defended, rubbing his hand on his eyes: "The wind is strong, and there is sand in my eyes." ”
"No, now it's raining, how can there be sand? Shame. A little girl next to him didn't believe it.
"Yes, there was a gust of wind blowing just now, and you ran with your head down, but you didn't see it." The Xiao boy made a threatening look.
"What I just ran up with my head is ashamed, not as good as us girls." Xiao girl is not stupid, hiding behind another child and shaving her face with her fingers.
"You're looking for a fight, aren't you?" The Xiao boy was 'annoyed' and waved his fist with a clenched hand.
"Niu Er, do you dare? If you dare to hit her, I will tell my father, my restaurant does not accept the tofu made by your family, and the price is cheap, and my father said that your tofu can only be slipped, not fried, and it will be broken when it is fried. Another xiao girl stood up and hugged each other. That's it~
"That means my tofu is tender." Xiao boy also knows how to find the bottom of the stairs, and is very smart to find a reason for his tofu, tender, in fact, there is a lot of water, people's tofu is a pound of beans can make two catties of eight taels to twelve taels of tofu, and his family can make more than three catties.
Xiao Bei listened for a while and came out to play a round speech: "It was indeed windy just now, if you don't know whether what he said is true or false, just keep reading, right?" ”
"Yes~!" A group of xiao children shouted at the top of their voices.
Xiao Bei was very satisfied, and at the same time felt that the other party was really a Xiao child, if it was replaced by himself, he would definitely not shout, it was too stupid.
"I'm really not crying, when my tofu shop opens, I'll invite you to eat." Xiao Boy added.
"Okay, then let's continue to go out, everyone has to watch the people next to you, see who is brave, and you still need adults to take care of you." Xiao Bei greeted and got back on the road, as for whether he could eat the tofu ground by the Xiao boy's family, it didn't matter.
Xiaobei knows that his family makes his own tofu, a pound of beans can make more than four pounds of tofu, if you use gypsum to point tofu, six catties is no problem, the beans are the same, the reason is all in the process, how much bean dregs are left, how much water is added, and how much soy milk is in the water lost when pressing tofu are very important.
Of course, one pound of beans out of six catties of tofu is not suitable for making rotten rǔ and stinky tofu, otherwise the brine will all 'fly' as soon as it is soaked.
Xiaobei was satisfied with the children's obedience, and thought all the way about whether he should tell others about the process of making tofu, and he couldn't make up his mind for a while.
Seeing Xiao Yuan muttering and reciting a certain book while walking, Xiao Bei poked the other party with his finger: "Xiao Yuan, I just thought about making tofu, and I was very embarrassed to tell others how to make more tofu." ”
"Oh, tell them?" Xiao Yuan turned his head and glanced at the children, without Xiao Bei answering, and said: "Since my brother and sister let you be in charge of this matter, you can make full decisions, even if it is wrong, my brother and sister will agree."
For example, when you went to Jian'an County to be the county magistrate, as long as you didn't kill that little person in the county, it didn't matter how much we did, even if the people in the county were lost, even if the people in the county lost their houses, there was no problem, and my brother and sister would naturally compensate, only a little more.
Luckily, we succeeded at that time, otherwise it would have been difficult for us to come out and play again, and we haven't made any big mistakes, so we can still come out as patrol envoys.
So if you want to tell the secret of the high production of tofu, you can say it, even if you do it wrong, your brother and sister will smooth things out, and whoever of us has researched the process will have to compensate whomever you want. ”
"Yes, it was made by a carpenter's daughter-in-law, under the guidance of my brother and sister.
I have already rewarded their family, but the reward is not because of the ownership of the tofu making process, but because of the spirit of research and successful research.
Although all the things made in the inner courtyard belong to the owner's family, including the people in the inner courtyard themselves, but the situation of our family is a bit special, there is a reputation problem in it, who makes the things, enjoys most of the honor, that is, the right of authorship, and some of the interests of xiao, such as Sister Pomegranate and Sister Xiaohong, if I say it, how do I compensate for the reputation of others? ”
Xiaobei knows a lot about this matter, and he doesn't worry about money, he is only entangled in reputation, which is mainly the propaganda of the Zhang and Wang families in their own inner courtyard, especially in terms of the seedling protection team, which pays attention to 'glory is my life', and this is also the propaganda for most of the Tang Dynasty's army.
Therefore, the pursuit of fame in the inner courtyard of the family is much higher than money, earning a small amount of money is to survive better, earning a lot of money is to show their ability, the behavior is the same, the result is the same, but something is different.
"Or ...... Talk to your brother or sister? Xiao Yuan proposed.
"If I look back, if I really can't do it, I'll publish a book and ask the person who makes tofu to write down all the methods and use her name." Xiao Bei was torn between helping others increase tofu production and the reputation of the inner courtyard, and only thought of a way to publish a book.
The team continued to move towards the old willow village, which was relatively high in actual height.
There are indeed children in Laoliushu Village, but the purpose of Xiao Bei and others is not to pick up the children, but to settle the children around them in the village, and at the same time help take care of the original children in the village, and free up the manpower in the village to help the county seat to help with the construction.
The old willow village is on high ground, so as long as it is not next to the house by the river, it can't be rushed, so if you want to plunder the property seriously, you can only use force, but the whole village has a surname, surnamed Liu, not to mention that the people are brave to the point of rebellion, but if you bully one person, the whole village can still do it.
Old Liushu Village does not have much land for farming, and the villagers rely on making simple utensils and furniture with poor corrosion protection from willow wood.
The villagers' willow weaving is particularly good, and with willow mushrooms and firewood, life in the village is not bad.
Nowadays, because the Tang Dynasty encourages breeding, the willow tree has become a natural home for Jī, and the villagers use willow branches to weave a basket and place it horizontally under the tree, and Jī himself goes into it to raise his offspring.
Zhang Xiaobao took a fancy to the villagers' craft in weaving baskets, and found them to weave baskets and install stones to repair embankments.
Xiao Bei shouldered the task of persuading the villagers to come out to help, and by the way, he took the children in the county town to hide in Laoliushu Village.
Xiao children walked in the middle, the people of the seedling team guarded on both sides, Xiao Bei and other nine children's seedling team did not stay in the county to help, not only did there be no less people, but there were a few more doctors, for Zhang Xiaobao, the safety of his relatives is more important, he will not do anything to put his relatives in danger and save others first.
"I declare, eat." When it was almost noon, Xiao Bei gave an order, and the tired Xiao children cheered, and they seemed to recover their strength instantly, which was amazing.
Xiao children are not hungry, more than half an hour ago they also ate a lot of roux pine brought by Xiao Bei, they are worried about the 'box lunch' prepared by Zhang Wang's family for the inner courtyard, the kind that can be heated by pouring water.
The members of the seedling protection team covered the temporary shed and used the water they carried with them to heat the lunch box, because of the large portion, the two children shared a portion, plus the fruits abundant in autumn, and the nutrition was quite good.
The process is indispensable for fighting, he eats less rou, he lied to her that the chili pepper was delicious and made her cry, and so on.
Xiao Bei didn't have the slightest intention of dissuasion, but followed the trouble, in order to deceive a boy with a delicious chili pepper, he ate two chili peppers in a row, and finally the boy was fooled, grinning spicy, Xiao Bei was angry, drank half a stomach of cold water, and pushed the food that couldn't be eaten to Xiao Yuan, so that Xiao Yuan kept chewing hawthorn pills when he was in a hurry later.
In about five minutes, the boundary of Old Willow Village arrived.
In front of everyone is a river nine zhang wide, seven iron cables on the river are swaying in the wind and rain, seven iron cables are one on the left and right, the bridge deck is five, the distance is more than one foot, the top is bare, there is no piece of board.
On the other side of the river, you can faintly see that some villagers put the wicker net that they are looking for in the water, and there are fish that will be stuck in the grid when they pass along the stream, and the gills pass through the mesh, because of the big body, they can't advance or retreat, and then they are pulled up and put in a willow basket.
Looking at the flowing water under the bridge, Xiao Bei scratched his head, picked up the fast soil and threw it down, looked at the degree of the water washed away, took a deep breath and said, "It will be very tiring to jump in and swim over." ”
Xiao Yuan looked down at the water flow and shook his head: "If there is one person in our team who can swim over, it is none other than you, I can't do it, it's not a matter of who is good at water, it's a matter of whose life is big." ”
"Then find a board and let people lay it out? I guess the board was deliberately removed by the villagers, and the people sent by Yan Zheng were not allowed to cross the river. ”
Xiao Bei found the record of this bridge at the pier of the bridge.
Those who were close looked at it, and sure enough, there was a line of words engraved on it.
'Zheng Zheng Construction Group passed by, and the villagers raised their own money to help build without labor costs'.
"The iron cable is not from my family, it is estimated that some cement will be used, it seems that the money made by Zheng Zheng Construction in Hongnong County at that time is finished, otherwise it is just to build a chain bridge, why let the village pay for it itself."
Xiao Yuan analyzed.
"It's drip, my family's Zhengzheng Building is not a profit-making department, its role is to support workers and help the family earn a good reputation, and it is also a sapper reserve training department." Zhang Fang, who has always disliked talking, stroked the words with her hand.
Xiao Bei raised his foot and kicked the bridge pier twice: "The question now is how to get over, one by one?" I'm afraid of danger. ”
Xiao Zhu, who also doesn't like to open her mouth, pursed her lips net, and Xiao said in a voice: "It's better to learn the stories that my brother and sister tell when they chat." ”
