Chapter 240: Illiterate Drawings Pave the Way (Part 2)
"Just looking at the pictures and introductions, I really don't know if it's good or not, so I built it quickly."
Zhu Yuanzhang is accustomed to the style of acting in Xiaqiu Village, and always makes it first, and then lets you see it.
Today, there are only pictures, not the real thing, find a craftsman to build, if it is easy to use, according to what is written, build it in pieces, in an open place.
At the same time, keep a certain distance between the furnaces, too close, burn together, people are easy to be poisoned.
Zhu Biao turned around to find someone, he attached great importance to this, with more iron, the people's lives were also convenient.
"You can always take out good things when it matters, and with more iron, it will be easier to plow."
Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the tea next to him and said to himself, he knew that there were many people who used wooden or stone ploughs, there was no iron, and the stir-fry was delicious, but there was a lack of iron pots and oil.
Rapeseed is grown in the south of the Yangtze River, which is relatively good, and other places are more bitter.
……
"Hanhan, take a sip of hot water?" The lieutenant and Han Han came to the front of the library, and there was boiling water next to it.
Below is a simple stove, there is no chimney, the copper kettle is on it, you can burn coal and firewood, the stove has a grate, and if you don't have a grate, you can only stuff firewood.
There is also a long table and two benches for people to rest, and the bamboo tube is sawn into a bowl, and if someone wants to drink water, they can take care of the people watching the fire.
It belongs to the convenience service of the library, you can drink hot water in winter, and you don't have to go to other stores to ask for water when you are thirsty in summer.
"Hmm!" Zhu Wentian sat down.
"Yo! The lieutenant and Hanhan are here, change the dishes for you, and wash them. ”
The person in charge of watching the fire was a cripple, a veteran, who couldn't do much work, and was asked to be in charge of the stove, and received a high salary of thirty yuan a day.
"I'm tired." The lieutenant nodded.
"Little Five, are you thirsty? Drink saliva? "Another older man, with a teenage child, looks like a grand-grandson relationship.
"Drink, I'm cold." Xiao Wu shuddered.
"Xiao Wu, sit here, there are nobles, don't touch other people's clothes."
The older man pulled the child diagonally to the opposite side, and he smiled at the chief and Hanhan, with humility in his smile.
"Hanhan, why don't we change our clothes! Outside, people are always avoiding us. "The governor doesn't feel very good.
"No, less, things. Hey, hey, hey! Zhu Wentian disagreed, others didn't want to find trouble when he got dressed, he didn't want to always have trouble with some gangsters or something.
"No, no, uncle, how old is the child?" The governor communicates with each other.
"Back to the nobleman's words, eleven years old, the fifth child is called uncle and brother." The old man replied and instructed the child.
"Uncle is good, brother is good." The child shouted timidly.
"Okay, yes! Eat, give. Zhu Wentian took out a few pieces of caramel from his pocket and pushed them over on the table.
"Oops! My little five don't eat, don't eat. The old man was going to push back again.
"What my family gave out of my family, don't just don't give us face." Li Chang's face sank, and the little five swallowed their saliva.
"Thank you not yet!" The old man reminded the child again.
"Thank you, uncle, thank you, brother." Xiao Wu's eyes lit up.
"Give." Zhu Wentian took out a handful of fried watermelon seeds from another pocket, pushed them over again, and took out a handful of them and put them next to the inner chief.
"Thank you, brother!" The child thanked him directly, yes.
"Lao Xu, take it for Xiao Wu, you're welcome, the chief, Hanhan, water." The man watching the fire brought two bowls of water.
Then turn around and send two bamboo tubes of boiling water in front of the grandfather and grandson.
"Thank you, Uncle Lee." Little Five knows.
The veteran sat opposite the chief and stretched out his hand to grab melon seeds from next to the chief: "Chief, these two are grandchildren, there are many children in the family, there are four sons, there is no family, except for the fourth, the other three have married daughters-in-law."
Xiao Wu's father works in the mine, his mother washes clothes, and no one takes the child, so Lao Xu leads it when he goes out.
Today's duck eggs are sold, it looks like they have been sold, but it's good, I can go home early, and I usually have to sell them until the afternoon. ”
As he spoke, he threw two spiced watermelon seeds into his mouth, and he didn't swallow them, sucking them with a taste.
The lieutenant took out a large handful of watermelon seeds from Hanhan's pocket and put them in front of the veteran, and said to the old man: "It's good to have many sons and grandchildren!" ”
"Yes, yes, now there is no war, it is stable, Xiao Wu will release ducks, and wait for the spring to raise more ducks."
The old man was still very proud when he heard that he had many children and grandchildren.
"Lao Xu, this is the shopkeeper of the Danqing Library, Xiao Wu wants to read a book, tell the chief." The veteran introduced the lieutenant again.
"Yo! The lieutenant of Daming Dongliang Village? Clumsy, clumsy, only know that it is a nobleman. The old man's attitude changed again, and he seemed less afraid.
"If you want to read a book, you can go in and read it, and the library doesn't say who can go in and who can't go in. Yikes! Is Primary 5 literate? ”
The lieutenant suddenly became embarrassed, people don't know how to read, what do you go in to see?
"Figure, Kui, look. Uh-huh! Zhu Wentian reminded on the side.
The chief patted his head: "There are books, wait a minute." ”
With that, he got up and went into the library, went up to the second floor, and came back in his twenties, with an extra book in his hand.
"Xiao Wu, look, this is called Kuiben's four-word miscellaneous words, last year, the Holy Divine ordered people to print, there are pictures and words, look at the picture and read it."
The lieutenant chief said to Xiao Wu that the imperial court gave it a seal last year, and the library will naturally not be lacking.
The old man stopped his grandson: "Little Wu, come and wash your hands, don't touch it." ”
He led the child to a nearby wooden basin, where there was a place to wash his hands, a bar of soap, and a hand towel.
After washing and wiping it clean, Xiao Wu couldn't wait to open the book and look at the picture on it, for him, words are pictures.
"Shoes, the word ...... Shoes, duck, duck, goose, goose ......"
Xiao Wu forgot about the cold, didn't care about eating, stared at the pictures on the book, and then looked at the words.
"Xiao Wu drink water, take the book back to read, and go inside to register in a while." The captain is afraid that the child will be thirsty and cold.
"Ahh Thank you, uncle. Xiao Wu carefully closed the book, put it aside again, and then picked up the bamboo tube and blew and drank, but his eyes were always on the book.
"Captain, people like us can also borrow books?" The old man looked into the eyes of the lieutenant, wanting to get a positive answer.
"If you can only borrow it from readers, who will you read it?
Take it back and look at it slowly, or go in, go to the back, there is ...... Scholars who are not very good at dressing, can still ask them if they can't guess the words when they look there. ”
The lieutenant gave a very reasonable explanation, and by the way, he took advantage of the readers.
"Don't dare to ask people, they are all knowledgeable." The old man smiled awkwardly.
The veteran finally swallowed the two watermelon seeds, and said in a voice: "Why can't you ask?" The library reads books to them for free, gives them food, and if someone asks them for words, can't they? ”
"This is the truth, the library is a national religion, and if there is a lack of virtue, then it is not a person who should be taught by the library.
Don't say that you are not well dressed, even if you wear silk and satin, you will ask if you are caught, just now I said wrong, look at the first floor to spend money to sit and read a book, ask him, don't tell me to return the money, never allowed to enter the library. ”
The lieutenant chief recognized the words of the veteran, and waited for the examination to become an official one by one, and now the child asks a word, you don't tell you, you really become an official, and you have to pay it back?
