0023 Thriving

In the early morning in the fields, the dew is fresh and fragrant.

When Li Tai stretched his waist and walked out of the tent, he saw that all the tribes were already busy in groups, scattered among the mountains and fields, picking or mowing, making this countryside full of vitality.

"Lord Lang, there are really a lot of wild vegetables in the field! Only two hectares of land were harvested, and dozens of catties were obtained, this is wild knotweed, which is used to dye cloth for medicinal seeds, and this is the ...... of shepherd's cabbage."

Liu Sanzhen returned to the camp with a rattan basket full of wild vegetables, greeted Li Tai happily, and enthusiastically explained the types of wild vegetables collected.

Li Tai listened with a smile, looking at this man's hearty smile, he couldn't help but sigh that people are indeed full of confidence when doing what they are good at.

Before, Liu Sanzhen was silent in the trilogy because he couldn't ride a horse, and Li Tai originally thought that he was introverted by nature, but today he saw the cheerful side of this person.

The morning sun came into Liu Sanzhen's eyes, and he looked at Li Tai with hope and said: "Lord Lang, the spring and summer farming is busy, and the villagers have no leisure to collect. The made material is more than enough for your own use, and it can also be sold in the city in exchange for cloth. My family's method of doing it is also well-known in the township, and I rely on it to support my family......"

"It's good to just take your own farmland, and you don't have to take food from the villagers. In the future, you will be the ambassador of the family, and when your family master strives for the upper class, you can not only support your family, but also be an official! ”

Li Tai patted the young man on the shoulder and encouraged him with a smile.

When several other people next to him heard Li Tai's smile, they all smiled and shouted to Liu Sanzhen, "See the ambassador", and a servant woman who was in charge of the cooking also came over and said with a smile: "Ambassador Sanzhen, do you want your mother-in-law?" I have a little lady at home......"

Liu Sanzhen was so amused by everyone that his face turned red, he emptied the wild vegetables in the basket and ran out of the camp, and after running a few feet, he turned around and shouted to the woman who was cooking: "Deng Niangzi, I don't want your little lady, if you want to find a partner, can you look at me?" I work diligently to save a dowry for the little lady......"

"Thief, dare to make fun of your mother!"

When Mrs. Deng heard this, she was ashamed, picked up the clod of soil and threw it at Liu Sanzhen, who ran away, and waved the soup spoon to smash the people around her, which was very spicy. But when he returned to the stove, his face was still as red as rouge, and his eyes drifted to Liu Sanzhen who was collecting wild vegetables in the distance from time to time.

Li Tai saw these jokes in his eyes, and he was also thinking about it in his heart.

The lust of men and women does not have to be shy about it. Arranging marriage and starting a family for the subordinates is also one of the obligations of the head of the family. However, if these things are not handled well, they are also prone to breed chaos.

At breakfast, while everyone was returning from labor, Li Tai said with a serious face: "The country has national laws, and the family has family rules. Since I have settled here, I will first make a few family mottos, and you must keep them in mind! This first point is that women and children must not be bullied, and those who dare to commit foul rules will no longer be in our family once the report is verified, and they will be sent to the official for questioning! ”

When everyone saw the seriousness of what Lord Lang said, they all nodded yes. Although life is poor now, the atmosphere is good, and many parts of the song have gradually given birth to a sense of belonging in their hearts, and they are reluctant to lose this harmony.

"The country rewards merit with knighthood, and the family naturally has to have a format for rewarding attendance. Since then, one day has been accumulated, one season has been the first trial, and those who have more family merit will be rewarded. There are men and women who are lonely and widowed, who want to choose a mate, and if they are in harmony, they will contribute to your family. ”

When everyone heard this, they subconsciously looked at the twenty women who came with the team, and a sense of urgency suddenly arose in their hearts.

Liu Sanzhen drank a bowl of vegetable soup in two sips, wiped his mouth and said, "Does Lord Lang still have instructions?" If it is gone, the servant must quickly collect the vegetables, and the sunrise will be dewed, I am afraid that the quality is not good! ”

"That's all there is for now, let's go!"

Li Tai smiled again when he heard this, waved his hand and said.

All the parts suddenly scattered, and one by one they were several times more active than before.

The few women who remained in the camp were not all happy, and after a long hesitation, an older woman was pushed out, bowed her head and whispered: "Lord Lang cherishes the soldiers, and he is a rare good master in the world. We foolish women, dare to ask Lord Lang, when we are married, can we ...... ourselves?"

"Are you worried about mismatching the wicked and suffering all your life? Don't worry, don't make a marriage book in the household, if you want to match the household, come and register. If you don't want to, don't force it. If you have a lot of credit, those clumsy men are also at your disposal! ”

In ancient times, in order to increase the population, it was a sin for men and women to marry late and not to marry. However, Li Tai is now full of less than 300 people, and he doesn't mind spending a little more effort to give these men and women a little room for freedom to marry. There are all kinds of bumps on the donkey's lips and horses' mouths, and it is also a kind of torture after a long time.

The women were usually more emotional, and when they heard Li Tai say this, their eyes couldn't help but turn red.

The woman who spoke first wiped her tears and bowed again and again, "Thank you, Lord Lang, thank you...... The year before last, the dead man of my family went to Lingzhou, and there was no news as soon as he went, and the clan coveted me Sangtian to force my uncle, I escaped with two children but was arrested by the government, and lost the small one, leaving a pair of mother and son as slaves. That man lives or dies, I just want to raise his flesh and bones, I must work diligently, and I will never eat ......in vain."

In troubled times, the most important thing is human pathos.

Li Tai didn't know what to comfort, but said: "Lady, don't worry, no one is forcing you to do this." I know that you are good at weaving and cutting, and you are responsible for your family's clothes and hats. In the future, when the situation is calm, I will also set up a family to learn and educate children, and when your husband returns, I will be grateful to you for your upbringing! ”

When the heard this, she was even more excited and burst into tears: "I must, I must make a beautiful official robe for Lord Lang!" Lord Lang has given people such gifts, and he does not become a great official, and he has no conscience in the sky......"

"Then I will borrow your auspicious words and work hard! Alright, get busy. I walk around and add homework to my family! ”

Li Tai drank two large bowls of vegetable soup, patted his buttocks and stood up, and led the two of them to walk towards the mountain.

Nowadays, flat land and open fields are the foundation of food rations, but Li Tai knows his own family affairs and talks about intensive cultivation, after all, the ancients are the real experts.

With a half-level that he doesn't know why, it is really difficult for him to put forward any constructive planning suggestions, so he will not arbitrarily arrange and direct the cultivation of open fields. At most, improve farm tools, such as building a zigzag plow.

His greatest advantage as a traverser should be his advanced knowledge of various production tools and processes.

There is no need to think about it now. Even if he has a little bit of knowledge about it, he doesn't have any practical experience at all, and even if he studies it, he has to make a lot of trial and error, which is obviously not something that his current family background can support.

The first thing Li Tai thought of was the transformation of spinning wheels and looms. After all, the market transactions in Guanzhong, including the collection of taxes by the imperial court, were mainly based on cloth. Therefore, the spinning wheel loom was a money printing machine in this era.

The Golden Iron Horse of the Later Three Kingdoms may be magnificent, but the foundation for truly maintaining the progress and development of this era is the women's hand-shaking feet and weaving one by one.

To what extent the textile level of the Northern Dynasties has reached, Li Tai really doesn't know very well. When asked about the weaving tools used by the maids, they were also vague, and they seemed to have both hands and feet.

After all, in the years of war, the division and confrontation between regions greatly limited the exchange and development of technology and tools.

But even if you don't understand the textile level of this era, it does not prevent Li Tai from improving and creating spinning wheels and looms.

As a hard-core ancient style UP master, the study of ancient textile tools is also one of the basic homework. He is not one of those bewitching goods who chase the Hanfu lady to take pictures to earn traffic, and he has even restored some ancient textile tools by himself.

Although most of the ancient textile tools that can be seen in later generations are from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, due to the introduction of cotton, the textile environment and technology have changed greatly compared with the Middle Ages. However, cotton fiber is shorter than silk and linen, and some improved technologies can also be used in silk and linen weaving, and the technical requirements are lower.

On the way out of the city yesterday, Li Tai saw many pools of hemp in the countryside, and he got a lot of inspiration in his mind.

His first thought was to build a large spinning wheel, which was invented in the Southern Song Dynasty as a large textile tool, through the hydraulic drive to process the hemp thread into hemp yarn, under the condition of sufficient power, one day can spin more than 100 catties of hemp, if converted to the Northern Dynasty system, it is nearly 300 catties.

Li Tai also asked the women of the trilogy how much hemp they could spin in a day, and the hand-cranked spinning yarn was only between five or six catties, and the spinning wheel with three spindles on the feet was only more than ten catties of spinning hemp.

In such a comparison, the advantages of technological development are reflected, and the productivity is increased by 30 times! Others print money for five cents, but he is thirty or fifty, so it's not a dream to buy empty Guanzhong properties like this!

The structure of the water-to-large spinning wheel is relatively complex, and Li Tai in later generations also overturned the car countless times before it was reduced and restored, so its scale structure is also deeply remembered. This large spinning wheel was mainly made of wood, so after Li Tai had breakfast, he went up the mountain to look for suitable wood, and tried to print money as soon as possible.

Li Tai came to the hillside, and Yang Heili, who led the team to find qualified clay, strode up to meet them, Li Tailuo asked them how they had gained, and waved his hand to signal them to take care of themselves, and he walked into the woods with two attendants.

The soil on the slopes is thick, the vegetation is also dense, and all kinds of plants and trees that Li Tai knows or does not know grow vigorously. However, there are few large timbers around the perimeter, and there are quite a few thick and rotten tree stumps, and it is obvious that the villagers of Zuojin have been going up the mountain to cut down before.

Seeing a thick layer of elm money spread under a few elm trees on the southern slope, Li Tai ordered: "Go down the mountain and summon a few idlers from the camp to come over and pick up the elm money." Mountain fruit honey locusts, also collected some. ”

With a thin family background and poor food and clothing, he has integrated into the environment very well, and he is not willing to waste these mountains and forests.

After giving these instructions, Li Tai turned his head to look down the mountain, and his face suddenly changed. I saw a crowd of black people waving their canes and wading through ditches in the fields in the distance, and they were coming towards his family's farm.
