Outside the city, inside the farmstead.

As the months passed, I looked at the land that had been leveled and built standard houses around it.

The area is quite large, there are many things to build, the frozen soil is difficult to apply in winter, and a heavy snowfall delays the pace.

Fang delayed the New Year, and it was completed on the day of Jia Zhu's wedding.

Looking at the busy crowd in the field, planting early seedlings.

A number of raised platforms are being built in the workshop to allow for the installation of boilers.

Jia Qiong brought Ding Zhong and two recruited craftsmen to the experimental room.

This is the place that Jia Qiong has set aside for various experiments, and there are a few places like this, which are locked on weekdays and cannot be opened if nothing happens.

Let people boil two pots of hot water first, and then mix alkaline noodles and quicklime into the water respectively, and each obtained a pot of sodium carbonate solution and calcium hydroxide solution.

According to Jia Qiong's command, the two solutions were mixed, and the master filled the solution into a large vat after stirring thoroughly.

When the mixed liquid in the vat slowly comes to a standstill, the resulting calcium carbonate becomes solid and sinks, leaving only sodium hydroxide solution on top. Although there are still some impurities in it, which are not pure enough, they can barely be used.

After that, he poured the newly refined sodium hydroxide solution into several pots, put lard and rapeseed oil in different proportions and reheated it, and wrote down the comparison on the paper prepared in advance.

Then several people started at the same time, kept stirring, and soon found that the oil layer in the pot was slowly disappearing.

Jia Qiong knew that this was the result of the reaction between oil and sodium carbonate.

He just didn't know the specific ratio, so he prepared several pots just to experiment with specific data.

After the oil layer disappeared completely, Jia Qiong sprinkled some salt into the cauldron, and some yellowish solids slowly appeared in the clear solution, which condensed more and more.

It's as magical as a tofu in brine.

Looking at these freshly processed primary soaps, Jia Qiong took a knife and divided these primary soaps into two, one of which added a certain amount of milk, and the other added an appropriate amount of sulfur.

The processed soap is cooled in palm-sized rectangular carved cork boxes.

After it is cooled and formed, the milk soap and sulfur soap with beautiful patterns are completed.

Milk has the ability to beautify the skin and nourish the skin, and sulfur sterilization and disinfection are common materials for making soap.

The reason why these soaps are made is mainly because in recent years, natural disasters have occurred frequently all over the country, and various epidemics have occurred, and there have been several cases in Shenjing.

Jia Qiong had seen this kind of person from afar, and she was glad that she had never been sick when she was a child, thanks to her mother's good care, otherwise she was likely to die early.

Although he had read the Barefoot Doctor's Handbook in his previous life, there were so many formulas in it that he could remember.

In addition to the common colds and heat colds, there are several strange illnesses that can be memorized.

The rest of his memory is some home remedies for tonifying the kidney and strengthening yang, and he remembers this very strongly.

He had also wondered if he would wait until the matter at hand was done before trying to make the decoction in this prescription into pills and sell it, but it was difficult to do it now, and he had some other concerns.

Therefore, when it is impossible, we can only think from the source and let everyone talk about hygiene.

Ordinary soap, he is not ready to sell how expensive, he only needs to make a little profit, and he only needs to earn two pennies per piece of removal cost, taking the road of small profits and quick turnover.

And the milk and sulfur side is where he went under the knife, and if he doesn't make a profit of one or two silvers, he is a little sorry for himself, and he takes the luxury route.

Looking at the finished soap, everyone walked out of the laboratory, and Jia Qiong handed over the experimental formula to Ding Zhong.

After Ding Zhong got along for a few months, it can be regarded as a preliminary understanding, and it doesn't hurt to hand it over to him, anyway, this Zhuangzi is surrounded by high walls, and he can't get out except for the main entrance.

To get to the main gate, you need to pass through the school field, which is the training place of Shi Dian, and the gate is guarded by them.

If you want to get out of this door, you must explain the reason, what you need to do there, and sit in pairs.

The craftsmen hired by the farm were all given three times the amount of silver outside, and Jia Qiong was responsible for eating and drinking, including the women summoned by Ding Zhong.

looked at Ding Zhong beside him, and remembered that when he went to look for him that day, he had to look at the venue before deciding.

Now that everything is on the agenda, I no longer have so many scruples. couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Ding, my nephew doesn't know whether to ask or not if he has a word." ”

After finishing speaking, he kept looking at Ding Zhong, and after seeing him nodding, Fang asked again: "I don't know why Uncle Ding had to come to see this place and objects when Qiong was looking for you that day, can you solve the doubts for the little nephew." ”

Ding Zhong looked at the workshop in front of him, then at the scenes of the wives of the brothers in the various armies, and then at the roars of teenagers and children in the martial arts arena in front of him.

After being stunned for a long time, Fang said: "Back then, you said that it was your own workshop, not the Jia family's workshop, but at that time your family had no money, so how to make this workshop, I was a little worried."

I can't help the wives and children of these brothers, but no matter how poor they are, they are only tired, and it is better than being cheated out or sold into a secret prostitute.

If so, how can I be worthy of those brothers? So I'd rather be cautious than let them be deceived because of me. ”

Hearing this, Jia Qiong's heart was also a lot more stable, at least this Ding Zhongzhong's feelings were a good thing.

After thinking about it, he took Ding Zhong and the other two masters into another laboratory and taught them how to extract smokeless wax.

After the alkaline surface is purified, it becomes a weaker strong alkali to saponify the oil, and then the obtained soap is decomposed with hydrochloric acid to remove stearic acid.

It is a white substance that feels greasy to the touch, and candles made from it have a soft texture and are cheaper.

The wick of this life is made of cotton thread, standing upright in the center of the flame, and since it cannot be burned out and charred, it is necessary to cut off the end of the remaining wick with scissors from time to time, so this is undoubtedly a troublesome matter.

According to what Jia Qiong remembered in his previous life, he asked them to use a candle wick made of three cotton threads, so that the wick would naturally loosen when it burned, and the end would be just warped to the outside of the flame, so that it could burn completely.

After the experiment was completed, he asked Ding Zhong to arrange production.

He didn't plan to arrange the sale by himself, he only needed to earn a certain amount of silver, hand it all over to the Xue family's shop, and then share the money with the Xue family.

In this way, someone will help take the risk, and you only need to hide it, after all, your own background is still poor.

After the workshop came to an end, Jia Qiongfang came to the front of the school and watched Shi Dian train everyone, these were all people found by Ding Zhong, and they were all family members of his father and two uncles.

At the beginning, Jia Qiong specially prepared one or two houses for Shi Dian in the city, but he never thought that he chose to live here in the farm outside the city, so that his wife and son could live here.

Jia Zhu had promised to help train here for three years, as long as all the Zhuang disciples were trained and satisfied.

He ensured that he would go to the border army as a commander, and if he made meritorious contributions, he would also operate for him.

The two were talking about something, when they saw Jia Zhu coming from a distance with more than 20 people from the side branch.

Originally, all of them came to study in the clan study, and no one stayed.

It turned out that everyone heard that they didn't need to study, they had three meals, and they needed to live in a training place, and they were not controlled by their mothers, so they were all very excited.

When everyone arrived, Jia Qiong couldn't help but look at everyone in the audience in a daze, and understood the reason in an instant, and then looked at Jia Zhu and said, "Brother Zhu, isn't he angry, sir?" ”

Hearing Jia Qiong say this, Jia Zhu first smiled bitterly for a while, and then said:

"How is the gentleman not angry, but the gentleman has eaten more salt than we have eaten. I just told me again after I was angry

Let them suffer first, and then let them go back to studying.

If they can really endure the hardships of training, but they can't endure the hardships of studying, it means that they are this piece of material, and forcibly letting them study is not beautiful. ’”

Jia Qiong was speechless when she heard it, but it was right to think about it, Jia Dairu's words were to the point.

Think about it, if you train these people well, then this start will be much better than the original book.

Even if these people can't help, at least they won't drag their feet too late, and there will be fewer sneaky and slippery things in the future, so as to avoid them developing a stubborn character, and their own family resources are not rich, but they still love to have fun.

For example, this Jia Qin will still eat wine and make money in the ancestral land in the future, and even recruit prostitutes, including nuns.

After all, if he wants to climb up for a long time, it will be difficult to climb to the sky without the Jia family, he never believes in self-made chicken soup, it is all a lie.

Maybe one or two people can succeed, but Jia Qiong will not be naïve to think that he will definitely be able to do it, he has been beaten by society and has a certain amount of self-knowledge.

It didn't take long for him to extinguish the reverie in his heart, everyone in the room was someone he knew, but he still wanted to ask these people what they thought.

As a result, before he could ask, he saw that everyone greeted him, Brother Qiong is good, Uncle Qiong is good, it was noisy, and the scene was quite chaotic.

Jia Qiong was also a little surprised.

When Jia Qiong was just studying before, everyone didn't care, but the relationship within the clan was there, and they all called him Brother Qiong, or Third Uncle Qiong, and only Jia Yun was willing to play with him.

But it's also his own reason, it's his own reluctance to play with these little kids.

So everyone didn't care much about him, until his studies made rapid progress, and even caught up with their most respected eldest brother Zhu, Uncle Zhu.

Therefore, everyone looked at him squarely, but at that time, Jia Qiong was with Jia Zhu, and he apprenticed to Master Li Shouzhong, the priest of the country, and studied in the Rong Mansion, and later everyone did not see each other.

Before she could see her again in two years, Jia Qiong, who was only ten years old, had already earned a family asset and purchased a three-entry courtyard nearby.

Therefore, these teenagers have raised him to another height, and the children of the side branches are envious and have many red eyes.

Jia Lian and Jia Rong of the main branch are also a little envious and jealous, and they can't replace them with their bodies.

I want to come here this time, and I also want to get to know Jia Qiong, I missed it in the past, and now I don't want to miss it again.

Previously, Jia Zhu had gone to Mengxue before getting married, and also told them that their mothers wanted them to come to know Jia Qiong.

After all, Jia Qiong is the same side branch as them, and he may be able to help in the past in the future.

On the side of the main branch, since the departure of the pillars of their own house, there have been a lot of points, except for the New Year's gifts for the New Year's holidays, there are few other handovers.

Even if the ancestral hall is opened to worship the ancestors, it is all children who go, and there is nothing to do with these women.

Looking at Jia Lian and Jia Rong in the lead, both of them are handsome and abnormal.

Especially Jia Lian's face is like a crown of jade, with peach blossoms in his eyes, no matter how they look at it, they are the kind of people who can't endure hardship.

Then he asked, "Second Brother Lian, Brother Rong, why are you two here too." ”

Listening to Jia Qiong's question, Jia Lian's eyes couldn't help flashing a burst of grief, and he said: "I'm a person who has no temperament to read, and I also want to contribute to the clan, so I can only come here to try." ”

Hearing this, Jia Qiong just nodded, although there was a lot of contact in those two years, but after all, it was still far away.

He couldn't say anything about the lord of the family, and he didn't want to flatter him, and he didn't know if he would still be the swinger in the future.

However, this Jia Lian is obviously because he knows that his eldest brother has passed away, and he is just impulsive after being sad, and whether he can persist is still a matter of whether he can persevere.

And he is the only concubine in the mansion, whether Jia Yu is willing to let him participate is still a matter.

Thinking of this, she looked at Jia Rong again, and when Jia Rong saw Jia Qiong, she said with a hippie smile:

"Third Uncle Qiong, don't look at me like this, my father saw that I didn't like to read, so he let me come here.

Let me not fool around in front of him, or he will smack me in the face and break my legs. That's why I'm here. ”

Jia Rong's face twitched when she heard this, and she didn't say anything after thinking about it, let's talk about it later.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at Jia Rui, who was smiling at him, he was already six out of ten, and it was supposed to be the time to get married, but the people around the two mansions looked down on him a little, so he was never married, and couldn't help but ask in surprise:

"Brother Rui, why did Mr. let you come here, didn't he want you to study for the imperial examination?"

When Jia Rui heard this, he couldn't help scratching his head, and said with a smile: "Grandfather has indeed always let me study, if I could have read the book, I would have gone to Jinling with Brother Zhu and you a long time ago, how could I have only finished reading the Analects and the university until now, and I still don't know anything about it."

So I wanted to try this martial arts training to see if I could join the army in the future. ”

Jia Qiong nodded noncommittally, and looked at Jia Yun again, Jia Yun laughed twice when she saw this, and then said:

"Third Uncle Qiong, I can't read the book either, my mother also asked me to come, and I heard that you and Second Brother Ni are here, so I came."

Hearing this, Jia Qiong was also a little helpless in her heart, after all, they were all young children, if she was not a person in two lives, what was the difference between her and them, and she didn't want to learn English in her previous life.

It's a pity that Mr. taught them earnestly, Jia Dairu said that day don't be black-haired and don't study early, and Bai Shoufang regrets studying late, this sentence is still fresh in my memory.

looked at the people who were all looking at themselves with envy, and they no longer looked for anyone alone, but just said a few words to everyone, and then led everyone to the school field.

Let everyone stand below, and then take Jia Zhu and Shi Dian to the high platform.

looked at the children of the Jia family who were not doing right, and then looked at the teenagers who had been trained by themselves for several months.

These teenagers were all found by Ding Zhong, and they were all descendants of his father and two uncles, and his mother's family members are now doing some work on the farm.

After a few months of training, Shi Dian is now training his fists, kicks, and sticks.

After carefully looking at the people on both sides, he gave Shi Dian a look and motioned for him to gather.

I saw that he held up the iron whistle hanging on his chest, and only made a few of these iron whistles, one each for Jia Qiong and Shi Dian, and the rest for backup.

This is what has been said a long time ago, one is to give these children of the clan more goals; The second is to give them a dismount.

"Beep, beep."

After hearing the sound of the assembly whistle, the people who were training next to them immediately stopped training, and under the command of their elected chiefs, they formed a queue and gathered to the audience.

After everyone gathered, a long and long was a command from the soldiers of later generations, and after everyone carried out the military salute of holding the sword in this world, a long party stepped forward to report, and the voice was sonorous and powerful, and the sound was loud.

The children of the Jia family on the side were all dazzled, their hearts were surging, and their whole bodies trembled with excitement, and they couldn't wait to be incarnated in it, mainly because this formation was too sassy.

Horizontal, vertical, and oblique are all the same line.

Seeing this, Jia Zhu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Brother Qiong, every time my brother watches you gather your team and train in a unified manner, it is always so shocking and breathtaking.

Especially when marching, its neatness and uniformity are rare, and if Brother Qiong joins the army in the future, he will be able to train the strongest army in the world.

If Brother Qiong was older, with Brother Hu at the beginning, this Tatar might not have succeeded. ”

Jia Qiong looked at everyone in the field, and then said to Jia Zhu: "Brother Zhu, go and say a few words." ”

When Jia Zhu heard this, he immediately smiled, looked at Jia Qiong seriously, and knew what he meant, the children of this clan were much more in awe of themselves than Jia Qiong, and now they needed to open their eyes for him. Then he nodded at Jia Qiong, and Fang said:

"Brother Qiong, I'm not as knowledgeable about military affairs as you, both civil and military, and my brother is just a rough understanding of literature and ink. But since Brother Qiong has something to say, then go up and say a few words. It's just that Brother Qiong has to pay more attention to the future. ”

After Jia Qiong was humble for a while, Jia Zhu took two steps forward and said to everyone in the field: "Brothers and nephews in the clan, do you look at the brothers next to you are heroic, heroic and extraordinary, and quite like a strong army. ”

Seeing that the children in the clan were all dancing and agreeing loudly, and then looking at the queue next to him standing still and standing like a pine tree, Jia Zhu also felt that the gap was quite large.

Then he said: "This is all the training of Brother Qiong and the head of the Shi Sect, if you want to do the same, you must be trained here."

Secondly, the effect of Brother Qiong's training is obvious to all. Therefore, only Brother Qiong has the final say here.

The second is Master Shi, you must obey, even me, in this school field, must also obey Brother Qiong's orders. Do you all understand? ”

As Jia Zhu's voice fell, the children of the Jia family all shouted hoarsely.

"Got it, Brother Zhu."

"Understood, Uncle Zhu."

There was another chaos in the field, and after a dozen breaths, Fang slowly stopped.

Seeing this, Jia Zhu turned around and asked Jia Qiong to come forward and speak.

Seeing this, Jia Qiong took two steps forward, came to the front of everyone, looked at the audience, and did not speak, until the audience was completely silent, and then said:

"Although you are all brothers and nephews of my clan, and you are all men of each house and branch, and your father is gone, then you all need to put up your own lintel.

Since we can't afford to study, we have to endure the hardships of training and the hardships of joining the army in the future.

Otherwise, you will suffer from your own impotence.

Of course, you can't finish it in general, maybe you don't follow the text in the future, let alone the martial arts, then in addition to doing business in the future, you may have to look at people's faces to do things, and you may be frightened by others' eyes.

I don't say this to scare you, but these brothers next to you have already suffered these hardships, so they especially cherish this opportunity to train, and in the future, when they join the army, they may be able to stand up for their own lintel.

Don't say too much, since you have arrived here, you will no longer have any special status, there is only one identity, and that is soldier.

No matter how close you are to me, I will never show mercy to your men, and after seven days of training, I will give you a chance to leave.

No one is allowed to leave before the seventh day, or they will leave here with Brother Zhu after a while. This is just a small test for you.

I told you that seven days will be the same pain as the underworld for you, don't say that I scare you, this is indeed a fact, if you want to stand up with Brother Zhu, otherwise you will try the torture of this underworld. ”

After a long time when no one stood up, Jia Qiongfang said again: "In this case, I will let you choose you later, so you can wait here." ”

Then he said to the people in the queue next to him: "The deputy chiefs of each are out of the ranks, and you will be the new chiefs and select your recruits." You will discipline you as I did you. ”

Seeing this, Jia Zhu couldn't help nodding secretly.

After arranging a series of characters, Jia Qiongfang turned his head to look at Shi Diandao: "Master Shi, I have too many things, and you will supervise it later, if you are not convinced, you will give me a blessing, and you don't have to treat the Xue family brothers like you did at the beginning." ”

As he spoke, he said to Jia Zhu, "Brother Zhu, let's go and have a look elsewhere." Don't worry about them, I've trained them, they know how to train. ”

Jia Zhu couldn't help but be a little stunned when he heard this, but he had already said it before, so he would not question Jia Qiong here, even if he needed to, it would be after he left.

Ding Zhong, who was watching from afar, saw this situation, and he was also quite emotional.

If they were like this at the beginning, they might have had the skill of being a dragon, and the other brothers would not have died in vain on the frontier and would not have been able to reunite with their families for the rest of their lives.

I only hope that the other brothers are still alive, although this Qiong nephew is now from the text, with his method of training the army, he will definitely be a member of the military department in the future, and he is more likely to become a military attaché, if he goes to Liaodong, then the brothers can still have some opportunities.

The two left the school field and came to Jia Qiong's residence here, a very simple courtyard, and all the other trainees were in one room.

After the two sat down, Jia Zhufang said: "Brother Qiong, the money I told you before, my brother may be about to break his promise." ”

PS: I wanted to update two 5,000-word chapters a day, but I found it a little difficult for me. I don't want to code words during the day, my brain is mushy, and I can write it at night, but I have to take care of the children the next day, and I can't stay up too late.
