A winery sits deep in a mountain col, next to the blacksmith's workshop, which Song Wen also valued.

Li Erlang and the six original winery boys have already begun to select their favorite apprentices, and they are still busy in the winery with their own duties and not mixing with other people's processes...... A strong smell of sake lees came from afar.

Qingshanzhai Shochu has long figured out its own unique method, and will no longer rely on the process of direct distillation of liquor, Song Wen squatted next to the two huge fermentation pools and sniffed...... Well, that's the smell of money!

The blacksmith worked hard to create four large stills, and the joints were sealed with silver at all costs...... When the teenagers are not shochu, they carefully wipe the sparkle of the still as if it were life.

To appease the hearts of the teenagers, Song Wen happily rewarded the teenagers of the wine shop with twenty yuan after looking at the more than 500 jars of spirits that had been burned! plus a new set of clothes and shoes for each person...... The apprentice in the blacksmith shop next door was envious to death.

Song Wen pressed the handguard saber on his waist and said: "Don't be envious, the saber of our village has been finalized, and the next step is to step up to build it." Don't seek speed, but quality! It must be strictly built according to the scale of the caliper, and the handle and blade of the handguard should be installed strongly, and the disassembly and replacement should be quick and easy! Well done, everyone will be rewarded with two dollars......"

The teenagers' eyes were shining.

"Also, we are a family up and down the cottage, you know, I myself am from a lowly background, so it doesn't matter if it's a craftsman, a farmer, or a guard...... As long as there are good ideas and good ideas, we can improve our current craftsmanship or objects...... The weapons are sharper and stronger, and the tools are more convenient and suitable! All of them are rewarded, and they are big prizes! Start with five dollars, no cap ......"

All the craftsmen, even the two outcast blacksmiths, were dumbfounded when they heard this...... Since ancient times, it is the duty of craftsmen to do things well, and the worst thing is to be beaten and scolded by the master and punished and whipped by the government! How can a craftsman be rewarded for doing a good job?

Song Wen pointed to the eldest blacksmith, Old Man Feng, and said, "I just casually mentioned the matter of making replaceable blades, but Uncle Feng has been studying for more than a month...... I don't know how much hair was torn off, but it turned out to be done! That's the credit, the great credit...... Do you know how quickly and how quickly and how big the sword is broken, whether it is a battle or a fight with a thief? After a knife cuts a few openings, it has to be sharpened...... How much trouble? Once the blade can be quickly replaced, how many more weapons are there out of thin air? ”

As soon as Song Wen waved his hand, Li Erlang immediately brought up a wooden pallet...... The red cloth on it was lifted by Song Wen! There was an uproar below......

Two or two silver ingots, neatly arranged ten!

Blacksmith Feng stumbled and almost fainted on the spot...... The two apprentices next to him were flushed with their faces, and their master was also very excited!

"This is the first bonus for our Qingshanzhai to reward invention and creation! Uncle Feng, come up and receive the award! ”

Blacksmith Feng pinched his thigh, and his heart hurt...... Isn't this really a dream? As a lowly blacksmith, he can be held by the proprietor as a guest? It's just an idea to improve the buckle and mortise and tenon of some handles...... There are twenty taels of silver in bonuses?

I worked hard as a craftsman and made iron all my life, and I made farm tools for the government and knives and guns for the township soldiers...... I haven't saved twenty taels of silver in my life!

The old blacksmith burst into flames, and tears flowed...... My poor wife, why didn't I survive to meet this Song owner!

"How many years have I kowtowed to Lang Jun...... Who treats us craftsmen as human beings? Lang Jun is on top, Lao Er will sell his life to Lang Jun in this life, the sword mountain and the sea of fire do not frown, what does Lang Jun want to build, Lao Er jumped the molten iron furnace and also built it for Lang Jun! ”

Song Wen hurriedly helped the old blacksmith up...... "Uncle Feng, a little bonus is nothing...... There are still days to come! Let's all work together, and the days will get better and better! ”

"Hey, I listen to Lang Jun!"

The old blacksmith's son also knelt beside the old father and wiped his tears, Song Wen patted the honest young man's shoulder and said, "Save up the silver, so that you can marry a daughter-in-law in the future!"

"Hmm!" The young man nodded heavily, revealing a silly smile.

It's October, and Song Wen is getting together with the teenagers every day, gradually ...... The teenagers have changed from awe to closeness to Song Wen, and only the worship has become more and more profound! Song Wen didn't know what his birthday was in this life, but now Song Wen did have a feeling of family for Qingshanzhai and these teenagers.

A fire burned in the field, and after harvesting the crops, Song Wen led the boys to level the land and throw ashes...... This year's harvest is not bad, but Song Wen has begun to explore the matter of fermenting manure and intensive cultivation to increase production.

There are also fruit trees on the mountain, gardens and water cellars are being built, and the teenagers will even carry the fat soil from the col to the mountain in baskets, and use this method to keep up their strength!

No one has ever had such enthusiasm for building their own stockade...... Song Wen looked at these teenagers and only felt that the people of this era were so simple and lovely.

It's just a pity that there are no sweet potatoes and potatoes...... And corn squash, these things are good things for high yields and good seeds! Why didn't the damn Europa voyage take place hundreds of years earlier......

Song Wen looked up at the east, and there was a dream of Song Wen over there...... Sooner or later, I'm going to give it a try! Those good things, good crops, and gold and silver mines...... Wouldn't it be a pity to be cheap for those beast-like goods? At least I wouldn't slaughter and spoil those simple Native Americans!

The youngest boys baked the grains of wheat that they had carefully picked up from the ground on the stone slab above the fire, and soon a smell of burnt smell came out......

A young man with a snot in his nose carefully grabbed a handful of roasted wheat grains, blew the grass ash on them, and then sent them to Song Wen.

Song Wen took the roasted wheat kernels, grabbed a few and threw them into his mouth...... "Well, that's good!" Delicious...... Didn't you catch grasshoppers? ”

Seeing that Song Wen didn't dislike the dirty grains, the young man wiped his nose and smiled...... Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment: "Is the grasshopper that Lang Jun said the locust master?"

Another teenager next to him asked, "Or is it jumping in the dirt?" And Qingbiandan? ”

A group of teenagers babbled...... It turns out that when the people are affected, they will indeed eat these insects, burn them or cook them, but no one will eat them until they can't survive.

A teenager raised his hand and said, "I have eaten, and I have eaten it on the fire...... My grandfather said that the locust lord was a disaster from heaven, and he couldn't eat it...... But the worm jumped into the fire on its own, and burned it and smelled strange! I couldn't hold back......"

A group of teenagers looked at this gluttonous guy with envious eyes...... Song Wen smiled, threw all the remaining wheat grains into his mouth and clapped his hands!

"What God? Heaven and earth are like a shuttle, and we must be in awe of heaven and earth, but also in awe of people's hearts! What is the Way of Heaven? The human heart is the way of heaven! What kind of heavenly way is a worm? Today, let's go and catch Duoduo, and I'll roast it for you...... If God wants to blame, let him blame me! If it's okay, it means that this bug is something to eat......"

A group of teenagers looked at their Langjun blankly, and then got up with a bang, followed Song Wen, and began to catch locusts and grasshoppers all over the mountains......
