If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. This is an eternal truth. Thompson kept his promise, and after reaching a trafficking agreement with Lin Qiang, in just half a month, he shipped grain that could be squandered by the mine for more than three months. And that's just 200 sulfonamides and 50 compound crossbows. As for the in-demand commodity of black powder, Thompson has not yet gotten his hands on it, but he also told Lin Qiang that he has his own way, but he needs to wait for some time.

Since Thompson responded like this, it was not in a hurry, and Liang Shuopeng's originally prepared gunpowder research and development could only be postponed for a while. During this free time, Liang Shuopeng discussed with Lin Qiang, and discussed with the friends who crossed together, planning to have a festival. That is the grandest festival of the Chinese people, the Spring Festival!

On this day, several people who had discussed it all came to Zhang Feng together. When they explained their intentions, Zhang Feng hesitated and said: "It's good, but the cost of every festival is always bad, can the mine hold up?" Zhang Feng didn't know that Lin Qiang had reached a trade with Thompson at present, after all, Lin Qiang didn't want Thompson to know about the existence of the Moyan tribe. So although Lin Qiang took Thompson to walk around the back mountains that day, he neither introduced Thompson to the Moyan tribe in the back mountains, nor did he introduce Thompson to Zhang Feng and them.

Lin Qiang explained to him: "Lao Zhang, don't worry, now that I have reached a trafficking agreement with a trustworthy businessman, all in all, there will be no shortage of food in the mine in the short term." Zhang Feng listened to Lin Qiang's explanation and finally nodded. Lin Qiang added: "By the way, there is more grain transported this time." There is still a part in the later stage. So you first transport some of it back to the tribe and let the old and young masters of the tribe eat it, otherwise the food will not be able to be put down. ”

Zhang Feng asked, "Is it a lot?" How much grain did you buy this time? Lin Qiang scratched his head and said, "It's almost enough for the mine plus you black-eyed young people, let's eat for two or three months." ”

Zhang Feng nodded, and was suddenly stunned, he was surprised: "Two or three months? No, now there are two or three thousand people in our tribe, plus the population of the mines. Lin Qiang said: "Yes, more than that." ”

Zhang Feng's voice suddenly became louder: "So much grain, it has to be hundreds of thousands of catties, right?" Lin Qiang also paused and said, "Yes, what are you talking so loudly for?" ”

Zhang Feng said with a ghostly expression: "Obediently, what kind of things do you use with others, you can exchange hundreds of thousands of catties of food, are you afraid that you are crazy?" Sold to the mine? ”

Lin Qiang smiled and said: "No, I just sold some compound crossbows, as well as sulfonamides, these are priceless treasures." Zhang Feng was completely speechless at this moment, and he said in a dry throat: "What is in your brain, I used to think you were very smart." The weapons you invented that are different from this world, as well as medicines, which are the foundation of your life, how can you easily sell them to others. ”

Lin Qiang turned his head and found that Zhang Feng's words also aroused the same feeling of Han Xu and the others behind him, but Lin Qiang seemed to be full of care, he waved his hand at Zhang Feng and said, "Old Zhang, don't worry so much." We now have to deal with the problem of eating first. The people of the Moyan tribe are here, and the old man and the child are still in the mountains, do you think I can not raise them? ”

Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment, shook his head and sighed: "Although your intentions are good, this is a matter of life and death. Lin Qiang laughed and said, "It's not that exaggerated, just hurry up and invent new weapons." Moreover, don't worry about that businessman, Rhodes also knows him, and he can be absolutely trusted. ”

Zhang Feng nodded suspiciously, he still decided to tell his eldest brother in the mountain about these things, so that they could prepare early. When he thought so in his heart, Lin Qiang said again: "By the way, you should take the Spring Festival thing I told you about, you still have to take it to heart." The young man of the ink-eyed man came, and he did not hold a welcoming ceremony. During this time, because of the epidemic, the mine was lifeless again, and such an activity was needed. ”

The people who crossed over with Lin Qiang behind him, especially Liang Shuopeng, who was more familiar with Zhang Feng, also persuaded him, but Zhang Feng had no choice, and finally agreed. After all, food reserves are no longer a problem now, and he is happy to see these young people happy.

Because of the productivity of this world, whether it is the Holy Volga Magic Kingdom, the surrounding kingdoms and empires, or the Moyan tribe hiding in the mountains, there is only one large-scale festival. The Magic Volga Kingdom has named the festival a fireworks festival in recent decades, mainly because the queen expressed her love for fireworks, which alchemists stumbled upon and burned with gunpowder. The Moyan tribe calls this festival the Harvest Festival. Other countries also have their own theories, all of which are after the harvest in the autumn every year, when there is plenty of grain, they clear the grain in stock, or almost in the rotten field, eat it, and make some wine.

Now the people who have crossed over are going to do something about the Spring Festival, which makes Zhang Feng really feel a little distressed in his heart. In the spring, it is said that the green and yellow are not connected, but I actually eat and drink at this time, I really don't know what to say.

However, although Zhang Feng thought so, the people of the mine and the young people of the Moyan tribe were very supportive. Young people's ideas are always new, and young people themselves like to be lively. As for the people in the mine, on the one hand, what Lin Qiang said, now they all listen to it, and the other is that the people in the mine were originally Rhodes before, and now Lin Qiang is allocating food in a unified manner, and he has no concept of the amount of food.

Liang Shuopeng, who has the best mathematics and the most knowledge of the calendar among several people, combined the celestial phenomena and the calendar of this world in the past few days, and roughly calculated that fifteen days later, it will be the Spring Festival of this world. Then everyone was divided into various groups and was in full swing to prepare for the Spring Festival.

Zhao Huiying gave full play to her professional strengths, and took Robin and the people from the Propaganda Department every day to draw New Year's pictures, window flowers, and paper-cuts, and then arranged the entire mine. For these novel gadgets, not only the men, women and children of the mine like it, but also many young people with black eyes also participated.

The settlement built by the young people of Moyan is now becoming more and more peaceful day by day. Not only did the shack gradually change to a small building built by the mountain, but in some places, through the suggestions of Lin Qiang and others, coupled with Robin's design, a lot of strong and warm caves were dug. What partitions or something, they have long been demolished, and the settlement of the Moyan people and the back mountain are connected into a whole, regardless of each other.

And these buildings are also full of lights, pasted with window grilles and New Year's pictures, which is really beautiful for a while.

Han Xu was not idle, and began to prepare New Year's goods with the people in the canteen under his hands. The grain has been stored by Lin Qiang in the abandoned mine before. In the heyday of the Qingling Mine, there were eight mines, but now the personnel have been greatly reduced, coupled with the need to train the army, so there are only four mines left in operation, and the four deep mines vacated have become the base for the secret storage of materials in the mine.

Han Xu, the current director of logistics, takes the people in the canteen to clean up the supplies every day, and is also preparing some pickles, as well as pickled meat or something. Although vegetables and meat cannot be produced in the mine, the vastness of the Qingling mine is beyond imagination. If a city were to be built here, the meat in the mountains and forests might not be enough to eat, but with just these three or five thousand people, the mine guard team went to the deep mountains and old forests all day long to conduct cross-country training, and the meat could still be obtained a lot.

The other is trading. Although the grain that Thompson brought in was a staple food that was conducive to storage, since the relationship with the mine had been opened, if Han Xu asked Thompson's caravan to bring some vegetables, fruits and meat from the mountain, Thompson's caravan would naturally not refuse.

Another source is the grain transport team that is now transporting materials from the provincial capital. Maybe it's the third young master Huey, who takes special care of them, and when he transports grain, he will get a little live pigs, live chickens and ducks or something, as well as a lot of barrels of wine.

According to the old man who used to hand over the grain transportation team in the provincial town, it seems that in the past, the mine could only have this kind of treatment around the annual fireworks festival. Ironically, Huey's visit to the mine is a good thing.

All in all, the mine is now not worried about food and clothing, and it is natural to have a holiday.

Half a month later, under the intensive preparations in all aspects, the preparations for the Spring Festival were finally completed. Today's miners' village is destined to be a sleepless night. The young people of the Moyan tribe in the back mountain also arrived at the miners' village for the first time, and thousands of people gathered around the big stage of the miners' village. Next to the big stage, Han Xu led people to prepare countless round tables. Each round table is full of good food and wine.

With the sound of gongs and drums in this world, many mine people and young people with special skills took turns to perform on stage. The hosts are two important souls of the school - Gao Ting and Li Xueyuan. Everyone was drinking, laughing, and making noise in the audience. The performers are singing and dancing on the stage, a peaceful sight.

The decoration of the stage, as well as the dining area under the stage, are all made of incandescent lamps with large wattage and gas, which can emit white light. Zhao Huiying also deliberately smeared the lamp with paint, although it is not very good to produce the effect of the lantern, but in this world, it is already unique and innovative.

On this colorful night, everyone was intoxicated by the peaceful night, immersed in the pure joy from the heart, and they released the anguish in their hearts, and released the grief caused by the disaster that had befallen the mine before. They pushed cups and changed lamps, hooked shoulders and backs, talked and laughed, cried and made trouble.

Until a show appeared on the stage, it was a show that Lin Qiang began to prepare for more than ten days ago. And the staging of this show has also changed the lives of many people.
