Qin Huai is happy and dancing, and the house is warm and the family is poor. A warm soup comforts you, and the wind and clouds cover the curtain.

The window is clear, and there are ambitions. Always care about the ink lightly, as the voice is spoken.

In Nanjing, where there is no heating, the winter days are very difficult, and sometimes standing outside feels warmer than in the house.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who worked diligently on the question book in the afternoon, was not cold, and even put a plate of cut melons on his table.

"It's a good day to have money! After repairing the fire path, there was no cold in the main hall. The palace is cold or hot, it is easy to make people sick, and it is good to be diligent and thrifty, but it depends on where it is used. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang ate a piece of muskmelon and was very satisfied with the underground fire tunnel in the main hall.

This was not the case in the winter of the previous year, when it was cold, it was cold, and at most it used a brazier for a while, when the water could freeze the days.

In the summer, I sweat a lot, I don't use ice, but I change my clothes, and I feel dizzy in the heat.

As a result, Xiaqiu Village wrote a letter to say that the way of health preservation, as long as you don't throw away what you eat, you are diligent and thrifty.

If you don't take measures when it's cold in winter, you can die suddenly, or you may suffer from chronic illness that will not be cured for a long time, and the same is true in summer.

Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid of death, and he didn't want his family to die, and he made a lot of money, so he was willing to improve the environment.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come down." Zhu Yuanzhang just finished sighing, and someone reported.

Zhu Biao walked in directly: "Father, the son is here." ”

"Come on, eat melon, but have you got the method of planting vegetables in greenhouses?"

Zhu Yuanzhang happily beckoned Hao'er to step forward.

"Father, the law of the greenhouse is important, and there is another thing that is even more important."

Zhu Biao said and put the drawing of iron ore and iron and copper associated ore on the table.

"What's this?" Zhu Yuanzhang knew that it was a map, but he didn't write it.

"Father, the one who draws the box is iron ore, and the circle is copper and iron associated ore, and there are words on the back." Zhu Biao pointed to the map and said, turning the paper over.

"The iron ore is so big that it can be dug in the open air. Eight words? How big is it, exactly? Zhu Yuanzhang sat up straight, with a serious expression on his face.

He knew that it was impossible for the master to joke about such things, and the master didn't seem to have joked, and the copper mine was dug up at the two locations for the second child.

At the beginning of the lunar month, the library was replaced by copper movable type to print books, and the library was liked by readers, so it was better to mention a word, so that readers would know that we were supporting the library.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, but he was distracted, and it wasn't until Zhu Biao moved that he paid attention to the mine again.

"Biao'er, you eat melon, he has good gunpowder, so he pointed out the mine, because he wanted the imperial court to use the method of bombing to mine.

Ordered someone to dig this open-pit mine first, we Daming lacks everything, and no one is behind to help us, it will definitely not be the current situation.

The collection of books in the palace, see if there are people who can learn, Qi Min wants to be skilled? Ask Zhu Lichang what he wants.

For the readers, how can a local official not know this, and he will make up the imperial examination again next year. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the map of the mine, and as he spoke, he picked up a few pages of the greenhouse and glanced at it.

"Huh? You don't need to use transparent glass to grow it? Is it better? In this way, the people who blow the glass in Xiaqiu Village don't have to be so busy, and plant a hundred acres first. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, he didn't want to let the people in Xiaqiu Village be too tired, it was best to only come up with ideas, and then start when things were done, and the rest of the palace and the court would do it.

Zhu Biao took the task to arrange, there is never a shortage of craftsmen, and there is more glass.

……

On the first day of the lunar month, the wind was very strong in the morning, and there was snow, and the sky was gloomy, but these did not affect the singing and dancing on the Qinhuai River, and they could not stop the people who went to Fuhua Building to eat.

Some people were afraid that they would not be able to occupy the space, so they ran to the second floor of the Fuhua Building early in the morning and sat down, but the shopkeeper Xu had no choice but to make porridge and side dishes and send them up, free of charge.

In the library opposite, the students who live in the back get up early to read, and they hurry up all the time.

"It's too dark, let's go outside! Bright on the outside. "A student was embarrassed to let the lamp be lit, and sat in the corridor outside with a book, listening to the whistling of the wind.

Other students came out one after another, some people drank water when they were hungry, they generally did not eat breakfast, and they had to save money to spend.

"Brother Toushi, I heard that they are floating a boat on the Qinhuai River, and they will study the imperial examination in the coming year from morning to night." A scholar said to the first student to come out.

"What do you have to do with me? What else did we have in the past besides being ridiculed? We can only use the help of the library to read well. Ahh ”

The man who was called Tou shook his head, followed by a sneeze, sniffing and sighing.

"It's so cold outside! It was warm in the house, and there was a fire under the bunk, and they burned it for an hour last night. ”

Some students are worried, if they go in, the house will be dark, and when they come out, they will be blown by the wind.

"Chen Yan, you bring someone to get the soup, the soup sent by the Danqing box lunch, faster." There are people in the library who shout, it is the student when the word is written.

"Go, go." The other students urged.

Chen Yan called ten people, ran over, and came back with a bucket, and as soon as the lid of the bucket was opened, the students in front of him were stunned.

When someone brought their bowl to it, the hand that grabbed the spoon trembled.

The so-called soup is full of dried goods, fungus, shredded carrots, shredded shreds, shredded meat, coriander, dried cowpeas, beaten eggs, and then thickened.

When it is put into a bowl, the soup does not shake.

"Drink, what people give, let's write it down." Chen Yan said loudly.

Everyone served the soup one after another, and then ate it with chopsticks, which was really warm.

"Let one let, let one go, this window has to add wooden strips, otherwise it won't be able to jam the glass." While the students were drinking the soup, the craftsmen came over and looked at the windows.

After the man finished speaking, the others began to dry, tearing off the window paper, adding wooden strips, and then taking the light blue glass board and loading it up, nailing nails and plastering putty.

"Don't touch it yet, when the putty is dry, it will be strong." After the craftsman finished speaking, he went to the next student's place to continue to install the glass board.

"You don't have to go out this time? Bright, glass! But be careful, don't touch it. A scholar smiled happily.

"Chen Yan, come and get the ink, the people in Xiaqiu Village heard that some of you are in charge of others borrowing ink, and give them a piece of paper, one knife per person."

shouted again, Chen Yan put down the bowl, and rushed out with a greeting, he was the one who lacked ink.

It didn't take long for the things to be retrieved, and everyone smelled the paper and felt so fragrant.

Chen Yan carefully put things aside, picked up chopsticks to eat soup again, and looked at the glass window.

When he was done, he went to wash the dishes, came back and sat upright, pondered for a moment, laid out the paper, put some water in his broken inkstone, picked up the ink and slowly grinded it on it.

"That's a good ink! Why is Xiaqiu Village so rich, the key is that it is willing to spend it on us, is it to let us do things for them? ”

The scholar who shouted cold before saw Chen Yan studying ink there, and judged that the ink was good, but the inkstone was too bad.

"When you meet them, ask them, if you let us do something bad, we will return the things, and if it is not enough, we will make up for the money we bring."

Another student decided to find out the reason, Xiaqiu Village will not be a fool's village, right? And how much money can you make?

And also! Farmhouse writes slowly!
