Chapter 158: Hope

Jiang Tangtang originally listened to Liu Chengfeng's words, and admired Li Jun as a person, and when he saw the iron plough he made, he was even more amazed in his heart.

Originally, she thought that the ancient industry was not as good as the modern one, and she was afraid that the iron tools she wanted might not be able to be made, and she didn't want this handmade iron tool to be perfect.

Jiang Tangtang almost wanted to turn the family into the valley.

If you want to vigorously develop the valley, you will have to make a lot of iron tools in the future, and such talents staying in the valley will definitely help the valley and accelerate the development of the valley.

However, the valley was only getting started, and she temporarily suppressed her thoughts and asked about the salary.

Liu Chengfeng said: "I haven't given it yet, Blacksmith Li knows that we are working in the government, so he said that he will settle the bill when the ironware is ready." It's okay to give money and food at the checkout, but it's more expensive than usual. ”

After Jiang Tangtang asked the price, he found that if he was paid, he had to give dozens of taels of silver. She didn't think about it, so she decided to give food.

Anyway, she doesn't have much else now, just a lot of food.

After determining the quality of the ironware, Jiang Tangtang asked the blacksmith to order a few sets of farm tools.

The newly ordered farm tools can be used by the Jiang family or rented to the villagers, and it is always beneficial to have more tools anyway.

Another point is that Da Zhou has strict control over iron.

Although iron was not sold by the government as in the previous dynasties, and the common people were allowed to make their own iron tools, iron could only be purchased from the officialdom, and there were strict restrictions on the amount of iron purchased, and in addition, a certain amount of taxes had to be paid.

As a result, the price of iron tools is extremely expensive, and many farmers' iron tools have to be passed down from generation to generation.

For example, if the iron pot is broken, find a way to make up for it and then use it again. Some of the iron tools were so bad that they couldn't use them, so they would take the old ones to the blacksmith's shop, melt them down and make new ones.

And those farm tools like Jiang Tangtang's fighting, with a lot of iron, have not been exchanged for old iron, not only the price is high, but the general iron shop can't take such work.

It is also because Lu Shiyan is now the lieutenant and asked Zhang Kui to open the back door, and there are no restrictions on the use of iron.

Jiang Tangtang felt that it was not good for his own affairs, so he always asked Lu Shiyan to trouble Master Zhang. Just take advantage of this opportunity to make a few more sets of new agricultural tools.

Thinking that the use of iron is now restricted, Jiang Tangtang can't help but think of the big mine in the mountains.

When the time comes, she will definitely open the mine.

Thinking about building the valley well and opening the mine again, Jiang Tangtang's heart was full of hope and enthusiasm.

It's only been two days since she came out, and she actually misses the valley a little.

It turns out that before she knows it, she has also made the valley her home.

When she wasn't in the valley, she couldn't help but worry, not knowing if the valley was good. When she wasn't in the valley, there was no trouble.

Because before leaving the valley, she had made arrangements for various affairs in the valley, and Lu Shiyan stayed at that time

There is no chaos in the valley, but there are many people who are talking about Jiang Tangtang.

In the past, most people thought that Jiang Tangtang was a good thing, and he tossed Lu Shiyan all day long, Lu Shiyan married such a daughter-in-law and went home, but Guanyin Bodhisattva offered it like that, and it was really moldy for eight lifetimes.

But these two days Jiang Tangtang was not in the valley, but people suddenly discovered that Jiang Tangtang was good.

In the past, many things could be answered by asking Jiang Tangtang, but now that Jiang Tangtang is not there, no one understands at all.

is Luo Taohua and Zhou Qiongniang, and they also miss Jiang Tangtang very much.

Luo Taohua looked at the intersection again and sighed: "I don't know when the third brother and sister will come back." ”

Although Jiang Tangtang was in the valley, she had to do a lot of things every day. But she still likes when Jiang Tangtang is in the valley.

Because when Jiang Tangtang is in the valley, he can always find a lot of delicious food. It felt like it was very easy for her to find food.

Whether it's duck eggs, ducks, or wild vegetables, they all roll home vigorously.

But now that Jiang Tangtang is not in the valley, it always takes a lot of time for them to find it by themselves.

It took several times more time, and the things he was looking for were not as good as those found by Jiang Tangtang. This is how she doesn't miss Jiang Tangtang.

Now she is willing to serve Jiang Tangtang as long as she can have food.

Zhou Qiongniang couldn't help but look at the intersection, "I don't know what the third brother and sister are doing with the third brother, it's so dangerous outside, and I don't know how she is now." ”

Luo Taohua said: "There is a third brother to follow, and the third brother and sister are blessed by the gods, what are you worried about." ”

Zhou Qiongniang nodded, "Also, the third brother and sister must be safe." ”

In addition to Zhou Qiongniang, Guo Xuantong is also guessing what Jiang Tangtang is doing out of the valley.

Guo Xinyi saw her sister talking about Jiang Tangtang over and over again, and her heart was a little annoyed, "Eldest sister, you don't care what Jiang Niangzi does when she goes out of the valley, anyway, no matter what she does, it has nothing to do with us." ”

"I'm just idle, just talking." Guo Xuantong now knows the situation outside, and knows that even if someone sends them back to Jiangzhou, they may not be able to find their uncle's family. She was at a loss and didn't know what to do next.

Guo Xinyi glanced at her sister, hesitated for a moment and said, "I think Xiong Zhuang actually has a good character, and he is also tall and strong, didn't he save you?" ”

Last night, Xiong Zhuang had already led people back. Lu Shiyan and Jiang Tangtang were not in the valley, but he told Village Chief Song about sending Wang Qiuju's family out of the valley this time.

I heard that he originally wanted to send Wang Qiuju's family outside the mountain, but halfway through, Fang Zhi found that his descendants had no reaction, so he made a fuss.

then blamed Wang Qiuju, saying that Wang Qiuju was to blame for teaching her that method, if Wang Qiuju hadn't taught him to use force on Guo Xuantong, he would not have been abolished.

even told her about hiding behind a boulder and messing around with people.

It turned out that on that day, Wang Zhicai didn't find out who the person behind the big stone was at first, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he had doubts in his heart.

Although he was not sure at this time, because he blamed his mother, he said what he suspected in his heart.

When Fang Qingmu heard this, he immediately pulled Wang Qiuju and beat him up.

But Wang Qiuju wanted to go back to the valley to find Lu Shiyan's trouble, and asked Lu Shiyan to be responsible for his son.

Xiong Zhuang saw that the family didn't realize their mistakes, but wanted to go back to the valley to find trouble with Lu Shiyan, and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

Let a few people make trouble in the mountains, and later a few people alarmed the fierce beasts in the mountains, and he didn't care. Directly took the people away, and left them to fend for themselves in the mountains.

And as for Fang Qingmu's lazy man, coupled with a woman like Wang Qiuju who has no ability to protect herself, no one to protect him, and when he encounters a beast in the mountains and forests, his fate can be imagined.

After knowing the fate of Fang Zhicai and his party, the mother and daughter of the Guo family felt a bad breath.

Guo Xinyi admired Xiong Zhuang's way of doing things, and this will bring it up again.

Guo Xuantong said: "What is good character? At that time, he obviously promised me not to tell me about the matter, but he turned his head and went to tell Brother Lu. ”
