The fire in the blacksmith's shed and the smelting stove were never extinguished, and the sand turners slept only four hours a day.

The people who go fishing sleep on the plows, bring the fish back, and have to set up their positions.

All of us are working hard, we have a backbone, we are full of hope for the future, and a good life is coming.

The benefits are real, whether it is a soldier or a herdsman, there is fish to eat, and the herdsmen's children occasionally get popcorn sticks and rice popped in a boiler.

What is particularly important is that in the past, in the winter, some herdsmen would fall ill and die, but this year there was none, and the illness was dealt with by the imperial doctors.

Wash your hands with soap, drink hot water, and sterilize in the tent, the chance of getting sick is very small, and eating fish and meat to supplement nutrition enhances the body's resistance.

The herders donated all the unused fur and made dog skin hats and gloves.

For half an hour every day, someone is responsible for giving lectures and teaching literacy and arithmetic.

Hands and faces can be coated with paraffin wax and stone grease to keep out the cold, and those who lack teeth are given teeth, and the herdsmen will not sell the teeth with gold core.

It is better to have a good tooth than to sell gold, and sometimes they need to eat meat and gnaw bones, and when their teeth are gone, they can only eat thin ones.

The gold was left by the Northern Yuan Emperor and others, and it happened to be used, and the gold was not worth much here because it could not be eaten.

Some of the pearls that are not in good condition are ground into powder for people to prescribe to eat, and the herdsmen watch the Taiyi grind the pearls, and then dispense medicine for themselves.

Especially when the baby is frightened and cries at night, the valuable pearls become powder, which is added to the medicine and effective after drinking.

The herdsmen are more and more supportive of the prince, and what the imperial doctor said, His Royal Highness the prince told that everything that can be used on the people, regardless of the price, only cares about safety.

The herdsmen have never felt such care and grace, and now that everyone is cold and needs fur, they take out their home reserves.

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, a few days in advance, cast-iron stoves, iron chimneys, and various iron tools, including pots, knives, spearheads, and arrowheads, were delivered to herdsmen's homes.

There are 1,000 craftsmen who can strike iron out of 5,000 craftsmen who take the soldiers to build things, and the army of iron ore mining comes back, which is enough, and the coal digging continues.

The women of the herdsmen's family use large iron pots to wash coal by the river, and the washed coal is also used at home.

The returning army rested for two days and went out along the river to set up camp and fish.

In order to attract more fish to gather, the hay is tied in bundles, and the positions of the ice holes have been beaten, and the positions are selected at intervals.

Few people know what this is for, because they don't raise fish, and this is the winter method used by fish farmers in the northern region.

In particular, fish farming in ponds usually puts half of the corn seedlings, sorghum stalks, and straw bales into it, and after it is frozen, it can provide oxygen for the fish in the pond.

The fish will swim to this area to breathe, so that the pond freezes over it all winter, but the fish do not die.

The south of the Ming Dynasty is not needed, who raises fish in the north? Yes, the south does not raise it, and it is fished directly from rivers and lakes.

Now use it, the fish will gather, and the next time you drill a hole from the side to lower the net, it will be easier to catch.

However, the mesh must be large, and the net cannot be extinguished, which already belongs to the place of the Ming Dynasty, and will be fished every year in the future.

"Sure enough, there was a lot of strength in the crowd, and all the tents had stoves."

Zhu Fan wore a dogskin hat and stuffy hands, and came to the city wall without fear of cold.

He looked at the smoke rising from the tents and sighed.

The lieutenant was reluctant to come up, and was pulled hard, but what he saw was that the tents were close.

"Everyone has a stove, and when they are close to each other, they need to disperse it again, the coal is still good, the smoke and dust are small, and the sulfur content is low."

The lieutenant chief said his opinion, which is actually an executive order, and the Zhu Biao brothers will not refute it.

Coal is indeed good coal, with less sulfur content, and it is washed again, and all that is selected is lump coal.

There are many people, the hearts are united, and the work efficiency is high, so I just opened another hundred acres of land and covered the greenhouse.

Zhu Wentian, who was also standing on the city wall and being blown by the cold wind, thought of a certain era in the past, when the people were the same.

The 202 acres of greenhouses will not be demolished, and they can be used for breeding in summer and vegetables in winter.

The greens in the first two acres of greenhouses can already be eaten, and this greens is a general term, not a single one.

Later, the leafy vegetables in the 100 acres of land are also about to be harvested, and as for the ones planted later, they need to be finished after the Spring Festival, before the tenth day of the first month.

The herdsmen are full of joy and have iron stoves! Iron pots, kitchen knives, iron spoons......

Ah! It turns out that there can be so many iron household goods, I dare not think of it!

According to the price of iron tools in the past, the herdsmen calculated that an iron pot is amazing, not to mention that they are not given a mouthful, but a set of three mouthfuls.

A large stew is used, a small one is a wok and a frying pan is not too large and flat.

A set of kitchen knives is sent, including scissors and clothes pins, plus two copper thimbles.

These things, herdsmen feel that they can't earn back in ten years, and in normal times, they won't want such a precious gift and can't afford to pay it back.

Just as they don't care about other herdsmen borrowing salt, salt is life, and letting others borrow salt means that they can't bear it anymore.

If others don't borrow, it's an enemy! It's easy to kill and rob.

If someone borrows it, what will it be for? Maybe others don't have much salt left.

Therefore, when borrowing salt, it will be mentioned on the side, and the other party can understand, and if the other party is willing to borrow it, they will mix the salt in horse dung or cow dung or sheep dung and hand it over with something.

It means that I didn't borrow your salt, and you don't advertise it, what if everyone else comes to borrow salt? At the same time, you are not required to return.

When it comes to survival, things are always the most precious.

But the herders asked for these things, including the salt and medicine they had taken before.

They are not borrowing from a person, they want to show loyalty, the kindness of the Ming Emperor and the crown prince, they will be Ming people in the future, and when the Northern Yuan comes back, they have to fight the Northern Yuan together.

If the Northern Yuan wins, his own things will be gone, and the emperor and the crown prince of the Northern Yuan will not give it.

The herdsmen who got the things were happy, and the people who were resting sang and danced, and they were not afraid of the cold.

In particular, the sound of the horse-head fiddle sounds like a story, using the strings of silk threads and the bow of the horse's tail.

Music is a thing that does not distinguish between musical instruments, and when you are in a good mood, you can express it with any instrument.

The matouqin actually played a very cheerful rhythm, and everyone was happy to listen to it.

Zhu Fan enjoyed it for a while, and turned his head to look at the chief: "Chief, will you?" ”

Lieutenant: "I haven't learned, we have a team, and we will give the banquet." ”

The lieutenant reminded that there are so many good players in your house, you ask me, where do I go to school?

"Sure enough, when manpower is poor! Wrong! There are music boxes in your village, and if you can make music boxes, how can you not know these musical instruments? ”

Zhu Fan just regretted it, and suddenly reacted, that music box is good, it is a musical instrument, and a person who can make a new musical instrument, can't he be a other musical instrument?

The lieutenant chief was also stunned, and then smiled: "Yes, yes, yes, find a chance to learn in the future." ”

Today on the three watches, after making up, yesterday ran too far, tired, today to repair the computer, the mind is consumed.
