If Zhu Jing is quiet, Zhang Yifan will do things much more smoothly. He discovered this from yesterday when Zhu Jingjing first participated. Therefore, of course he was very happy that Zhu Jingjing came so diligently the next day.

"What are you doing by the river?" Zhu Jingjing saw Zhang Yifan by the river, and when she saw it, she happily asked, "Are you going to catch fish again?" ”

When Zhang Yifan heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "No, I'm going to let this river give the village a hand!" ”

"What?" When Zhu Jingjing heard this, she was very surprised, and immediately asked curiously, "What do you mean?" Could it be that you can summon Hebo to help you with the work? ”

"Haha!" When Zhang Yifan heard this, he couldn't help laughing, looked at her and replied, "I don't know if Hebo has it, but this river can really help a lot!" ”

"What should I do?" Zhu Jingjing said as she approached Zhang Yifan, and finally the two stood together.

The people on the side saw it, and they all consciously left them a little, and then secretly looked at the two of them.

Men and women are good-looking, nothing more than that!

Zhang Yifan did not explain to Zhu Jingjing directly, but called Tian Dazhuang and them, and then instructed them: "The river here is relatively narrow, and there is a relatively large drop, and now it is the dry season, and the amount of water is not large, you organize people to block the water here, it is best to do this......"

Zhu Jingjing listened to him talking, and looked up at the river again, still confused, not knowing what Zhang Yifan meant by what he said about making this river work?

Tian Dazhuang is now Zhang Yifan's staunchest supporter because of his daughter-in-law's affairs, although he also doesn't understand the true meaning of Zhang Yifan asking them to do it, but he still nodded without hesitation. If you don't understand something, you can also ask it on the spot.

After Zhang Yifan made a clear arrangement for him, he beckoned Father Niu and said: "Uncle Niu, I still need you to do some carpentry work in the past two days, if there is not enough manpower, you estimate, I will assign you ......"

Ordinary farmers, because they have not studied and have not traveled far away, have little knowledge, but this does not mean that they are not smart. A lot of things, self-sufficient. For example, in addition to farming, some ordinary manual work, even if you are not a professional craftsman, can tinker and make something yourself.

Niu Dad belongs to the kind of ingenious people in Liujia Village, and he will do anything. is also the same, in the past, Zhang Yifan's bird cage and fish cage were all done by Niu Dad.

But this time, after he heard Zhang Yifan's explanation, he said with some embarrassment: "Yifan, to be such a big guy, I don't have the tools to take advantage of, I'm afraid I have to find a special carpenter!" ”

When Zhang Yifan heard this, he couldn't help scratching his head. Talent problem, this arises. Someone has to make something that is conceived.

Zhu Jingjing heard it on the side, so he hurriedly interjected and said, "This is no problem, you can hire one in the city!" ”

At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang divided the craftsmen into two types: shifts and living.

Shift craftsmen are transferred from other places to serve in the Beijing Division, and the household registration belongs to the craftsmen of various provinces, with a three-year shift, serving for three months at a time, and then looking at it themselves, staying in the Beijing Division or going back to serve. During this period, as long as one craftsman served, the whole family would be exempted from other errands and would be managed by the Ministry of Works.

The household registration subordinate to the Beijing division is the resident craftsman, who serves for 10 days a month, and those who cannot serve because of illness can be accepted as substitutes. The dwelling craftsman is under the management of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Therefore, in the city of Nanjing, there is definitely a large number of carpenters to hire.

Zhang Yifan listened to Zhu Jingjing's words, thought for a while and said to Zhu Jingjing: "I asked them to make this thing, which is a tool that can make this river help, and it is definitely very useful." You don't think this will work, how about you help me find a skilled carpenter, and don't pay them, so that they can learn how to make this tool as wages? ”

He thought about it, it was difficult to keep the tool secret, so it was better to use it to reduce costs.

"Is it a waterwheel?" Zhu Jingjing listened and couldn't help but confirm.

She had seen such things as waterwheels from books. Therefore, for the first time, it was so speculative.

When Father Niu heard this, he immediately shook his head, but he didn't dare to talk to this noble lady.

If it was a waterwheel, he could recognize it, but Zhang Yifan asked him to make something bigger, more complicated, and definitely not a waterwheel.

Sure enough, I heard Zhang Yifan shake his head with a smile and said: "No, but it's similar to a waterwheel, it's a tool that uses water flow!"

Zhu Jingjing thought about it for a while, but couldn't think of it, so she called Qiu Ju and said: "You immediately ride back on horseback, see my sister-in-law, and ask her to hire the best carpenter to come over, you remember to explain the situation clearly!" ”

"Yes, Miss!" Qiu Ju listened, immediately agreed, and then left quickly, found his own horse, and left.

Until this time, Zhu Jingjing suddenly came back to her senses, and immediately said "ah" at Qiu Ju's back.

Zhang Yifan saw that her expression was a little wrong, so he asked with a little concern, "What's wrong?" ”

Zhu Jingjing heard this, turned her head to look at him, and stopped talking. She couldn't tell Zhang Yifan that she came secretly.

I didn't pay attention just now, and I was thinking about how to help Zhang Yifan, but I forgot about Qiu Ju's going, and I would definitely expose her traces.

There's no way, after I go back today, I have to go to the East Palace to explain and coax my sister-in-law to do it!

Putting aside this question for the time being, Zhu Jingjing smiled again and said to Zhang Yifan: "It's nothing, it's okay, no matter!" ”

Zhang Yifan listened, looked at Zhu Jingjing, and probably guessed it in his heart. Ancient girls, how could they be so free in later generations, and they ran to him every day.

Feeling that Zhu Jingjing's mind was on him, he couldn't help but be a little moved, and thought in his heart, otherwise, go back and find a time to talk to her and find out about her life experience. If I remember correctly, Zhu Yuanzhang's operation on the heroes started with the Hu Weiyong case, but there are still four years to go.

If her life experience is indeed implicated, I have to help her resolve it.

After having this idea, Zhang Yifan didn't say anything for the time being, and then instructed Niu Dad and them to cut down trees and make preliminary preparations first.

Then he instructed the rest of the men, and not far from the river, said: "And here, this large area must be leveled out, and a kiln will be built here!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Jingjing asked curiously, "What kiln?" Didn't you say yesterday that you were going to buy the tiles from the next village? ”

She has been involved in the establishment of the village community since yesterday, so she probably knows everything.

Zhang Yifan smiled after hearing this: "I have already asked Uncle Liu to talk about bricks and tiles, I have never seen the kiln here!" ”
