Chapter 426 The Same Road (Asking for a Subscription and Asking for a Monthly Pass)
I thought that the rain would have to stop for a day and a night, but the next morning it was still dripping, but it was much lighter than yesterday, a little heavier than the light rain, and it was not to the point of moderate rain.
It's also very uncomfortable to rush on this day, especially the ox carts that Xia Xinman and Xiao Qingfeng are driving don't have sheds, not only people, if it is raining all the time, the goods on the cart will also have to be soaked.
Now their car is in the backyard of the inn, where there is a shed for cattle and cars, so when they went downstairs for breakfast, they discussed it and decided to wait and see, and if the rain stopped at noon, they would leave, and if they didn't stop, they would stay for another night.
After eating, a few people sat in the lobby chatting, and Qian Yan suggested to Xia Xinman and the others: "Actually, your ox cart can use bamboo mats to make a simple shed in the future, we have done it before."
Use bamboo poles as a support, roast it with fire, turn it into an arch, and then fix it on the frame, and add a layer of tarpaulin on it, not only to protect it from rain but also from the sun. ”
Xia Xinman and the two glanced at each other, and they both felt that this was a good idea, there may not be anything else here, there is really no shortage of bamboo, not to mention the mountains, you can see a clump of bamboo on the side of the road at any time.
Xia Xinman said: "Then the two of us will go and buy two mats and bamboo poles, there are oilcloth trucks, just put them up today, and you can use them on the road, this spring is a rainy season, just say it." ”
Chen Jinshi also thinks that this is better, there is indeed a lot of rain in spring here, sometimes it is sunny in the morning, and there is a rain in the afternoon, so you must bring an umbrella and a tarpaulin when you go out here.
Since he wanted to make a shed, then Qian Yan helped calculate the materials to be used, and instructed: "You buy four mats, and two for one car, so that the front can also be covered and the rain can be blocked when you are in a car."
It is best to prepare two more pieces of tarpaulin, as well as fine hemp rope, which should be used when kidnapping and fixing mats, and buy more. ”
The cattle don't need to be covered, the cattle here are the kind that like to swim in the water, and they are not afraid of this bit of rain, so as long as they get the car on it, the main thing is to cover the goods and people.
So they had something to do in the morning, Xia Xinman and the two went shopping, and Qian Yan and Jin went to measure the size of the two ox carts, ready to help design it and make it better.
Yuan Bao didn't want to stay in the house, and it happened that Chen Jinshi also wanted to see how to get it, so he took it with him.
There is a back door on the first floor of the guest room, which can lead directly to the backyard, and people can go directly without going outside, so they don't need to use umbrellas.
Qian Yan probably took a look at the edge of the ox cart, it should have just been repaired, there was no damage, and the bamboo pole frame could be directly tied for a while.
But first unload the goods, this goods are a lot, the pile is quite high, if you don't unload it, it's not easy to get it, wait for the shed to be loaded again.
But this will have to wait for Xia Xinman and the two of them to come back to get it, the master is not there, and they are not good at touching other people's things.
Things like mats, bamboo poles, and oilcloth are very easy to buy, and Xia Xinman and the two came back soon, because they went out in their robes and carried things, so it was not easy to pass through the front guest room, and they came around from the passage into the car.
Jin Jin stepped forward to help, took the things down, the two took off their coats and hats before saying: "Not far from the door is the grocery store, these things are available, we bought twenty bamboo poles, you see if it is enough, not enough I will buy it again." ”
This bamboo pole is very cheap, twenty pieces are only five cents, of course, if it is not raining, they will not have to pay to cut it on the side of the road.
Qian Yan replied: "Enough is enough, this bamboo pole is long enough, ten are more than enough for a car, we have to move the goods down first, and wait until the shed is finished and loaded back, otherwise it will be difficult to kidnap the child." ”
Xia Xinman and the two nodded: "Okay, let's unload the goods, our two cars are pulling Xia Bu, not very heavy, and they can be unloaded in a while." ”
As soon as she heard Xia Bu, she raised her eyebrows, this is a specialty here, I heard that it has an ancient history, and the cloth unearthed in Mawangdui has it.
Xia cloth has the characteristics of coarse, fine, light and thin, first of all, it is light and breathable, and secondly, Xia cloth is made of a pure natural fiber, due to natural factors, this fabric has excellent moisture absorption, breathability and comfort, so that people will not feel stuffy and warm when wearing it in summer.
In addition, unlike most fabrics, summer cloth has very good air dispersion, so it looks very comfortable and provides a good sense of transparency for the human body, whether it is worn or hung, and it is more fashionable.
Its softness is unmatched by other fabrics, and it is also very smooth, with fine fibers inside and a soft feel on the surface of the fabric.
It is also very comfortable and soft to wear, even if you wear a tight top, it will not feel strangled, and at the same time, it can be breathable and sweat-absorbing in summer, and it feels very close to wear, and it will not make people feel stuffy.
Qian Yan thought that she had to find an opportunity to buy some ready-to-wear clothes made of this summer cloth, and she could wear them directly in the summer, and she also had to buy some fabrics to bring back to future generations, which was definitely very different from the ones that had been passed down from later generations.
After all, many things have changed in later generations, everyone pays more attention to mass production, fast-paced, and many inheritances have actually been broken from generation to generation, and I always feel that those are not so original.
As for why they didn't buy it in Xia Xinman's hands, it wasn't that they delivered it to the store, these were all goods ordered by others, and they would have to go back if they didn't have to, which was not enough trouble.
Tilting Yan and Jin Jin also helped to move down, Xia Xinman and the two were embarrassed to refuse at first, but later saw that the two of them were easier than them, who often did manual work, so they didn't say anything more, but silently accelerated the speed of their hands.
Tilt Yan handed over the ingots to Chen Jinshi to bring, so he didn't do anything, he also had self-knowledge, he really couldn't move that big roll of cloth alone, so he didn't go up to make a mess, just help take care of the child.
The four of them moved quickly, and it took a few minutes to unload the two truckloads.
Dumpling Yan first took out a charcoal basin from their own carriage, and (from the space, of course) lit it with charcoal, which was used for roasting bamboo poles for a while.
I used a bamboo pole to compare it again, and found that one can be used, and there is no need to be indirect from it, which is more convenient.
When the charcoal fire is ready, roast the bamboo poles to make them arched, and when they cool down, they will be set.
Then let them fix both sides of the car with fine hemp rope, and tie them in turn from front to back, and even tie two to the wheels of the car in front of them, so that they can cover the front.
First of all, you can come to this car, do a good job to see the effect, and then make a second car, and if there is a problem, it is good to correct it in time.
There are many people with great strength, and after a while, the shelf is tied, covered with a bamboo mat and tried, this bamboo mat is much better than the reed mat she used before, at least stiffer than the one, the soft one, all supported by the bracket.
The bamboo mat is tied directly to the bamboo pole, that is, the mat is very densely braided, and some strength is wasted when wearing the fine hemp rope.
The two mats just cover the shed tightly, and of course there will be some overlap in the middle, which is inevitable.
After that, just cover it with a layer of tarpaulin, as long as the tarpaulin is fixed before and after and underneath, and the top can not be punched, otherwise it will leak rain.
By the time these were ready, it only took more than an hour, and this was not counting the time to move the goods.
Xia Xinman sat down and tried it, and said with a smile: "This is really comfortable, it looks different, and you can also pull your wife and children with you when you go to the town to catch the market in the future!" ”
Xiao Qingfeng scolded with a smile: "You are thinking far, your wife has not given birth yet, hurry down and get my car too, this rain has a strong trend, let's finish it in the afternoon." ”
"Come on, come on, I'll just sit down and you'll urge, it's really urgent."
Xia Xinman muttered as he jumped out of the car.
Then they don't need to bake the bamboo, they have already learned it, and they can do it themselves.
The second one was much more proficient, and it took more than half an hour to do it, which was even more refined than the first one.
Tilt Yan and Gold helped load the goods again, and it was a little more difficult to load the car with the shed, but it didn't affect it too much.
The goods were all loaded, and there were still fifty or sixty centimeters left on it, and there were still some things to put on it, so Qian Yan took two sheepskin mattresses for them, and they could lie on them when they stopped and rested halfway.
The two of them had to give money, and Qian Yan definitely couldn't ask for it, but the two of them couldn't help but want such a valuable thing in vain, and finally gave Qian Yan a summer cloth.
This is the surplus they set aside, that is, for fear of a loss on the road, reserved for the buyer who ordered.
Tilt Yan also wanted to buy Xia Bu, so both parties are satisfied, which can be regarded as the best of both worlds.
Chen Jinshi also fell in love with the sheepskin mattress of Dumping, the fur looks like a good northern sheepskin, dense and heavy, and it is perfect for putting it on the carriage in spring, autumn and winter.
So she was cheeky to buy one, but she was not polite to him, who let him see that he would not be short of money, but she was not ready to ask for silver, but exchanged a box of yellow essence with him.
That's right, it is the traditional Chinese medicine Huangjing, Chen Jinshi's family is from Naning County, where Huangjing is produced, and his family is doing this business.
This yellow essence is a good thing, her pharmacopoeia records that yellow essence is sweet, flat, the main stroke, the heat can not be shaken, the muscles and flesh are falling, the deficiency is long-term to the face of black snoring, good color, moisturizing, lightweight, not old.
This small box is not much, not too little, and she just uses it to make soup and stew as medicinal food.
By this time the rain had almost stopped, and only the drizzle remained, like a mist, and now they all had sheds, and they didn't have to worry about being exposed to wet clothes for a long time.
It's still morning, it's almost ten o'clock, and they are going to have lunch early, and they will go on the road after eating.
Back in the front lobby, let the guy go to the back kitchen and order three dishes and a soup for them, a big bowl of rice for each person.
Probably because they were the first serving, the meal came quickly, and they ate as fast as they could, and then went to check out.
When she got up in the morning, Qian Yan had already packed it up, and the changed ones were also put into the space, so she went up and took a bag down.
Chen Jinshi and Xia Xinman are the same, they all cleaned up in the morning, and they were going to stay for a day.
When they put the car in place and drove it out, the rain outside did not tend to become heavier, but it was not sunny, it was still gloomy, and it was estimated that it would still rain.
Leaving the town is directly the official road, the road is not easy to walk, but it is still Tilt Yan their car in front, although Chen Jinshi They are more familiar with the road, but they can't stand Tilt Yan They have divine sense, and it is much better than their way to remember.
It has just rained, and the road is very slippery, although there are stone slabs in some places, but it is inevitable that a bad wheel will sink in, so the car leading the way in front is very important.
As long as the car in front chooses the right route, the car behind will follow the rut mark in front.
And when going forward, Tilt Yan will first look at the road conditions in front of her, and the bear will also pay attention to it, and try to bypass the place where there is stagnant water, and if you can't get around, you will also try to walk, and if the horse's hooves do not fall, it will go forward, if it is a little stuck in the horse's hooves, then go around to the side.
This prevents the rear wheels from getting trapped. In this way, they are much faster than others. At least there was no delay. Don't waste time on the cart. The two cars behind were apparently also spotted, and the three cars behind were now spotted as well, following their cars. You didn't step on the pit, so after that, I felt that the last money was basically going along the way, and if there was another car behind me, I thought there was only one car passing by. Because there are only two car prints. The meeting is gone. It may be the real reason, there are many grandchildren around, and there are many forks in the road. Some of the forks are wide. And or is it not the kind that is not horizontal, but oblique, and you will go to a fork in the road almost if you don't pay attention, because it is about the same as the width and width of the pipe, I don't know if you think it is going in the other direction. Fortunately, the sex and appearance have indeed put the direction in front too well. This is to avoid going down the wrong path. I walked about five miles. The rain began to rain again. I just put my dad on the roof of the car, and it's still a little windy today. But it's okay. It's still a northwest wind, so they are going east, which is considered to be going with the wind, otherwise, even if the ox cart behind has a shed, it will inevitably rain on Xia Xinman and the two of them. There are always people on the side of the road, but they are not ready, so they will go now. Complaining that the rain is not as heavy as yesterday anyway, that is, at the level of light rain. You can go a little further. Try to get to the next town. If they didn't expect to walk to a section with small hills on both sides. When I was a child on the road, something happened. Because Qingyan's thing is always on the road ahead, there is no situation where one or two floors are lived on the road in front. The small hill on the right. Probably because of the rain soaking, Liu Kuina's stone loosened, and when their country passed by, it actually rolled down. Hear the gurgling sound and find out with your own eyes. At this time, it must be too late to dodge. People in their 20s don't necessarily hit them, but they bring down some cars, cars, or wounds that are sure to hurt them at any time. The horses and cows in the back are not necessarily happy to the new year! Look at the teleporter, let him get the rubble into the space.
