Fire tongs!

Without fire tongs, how can she hold honeycomb coal?

Li Xiaoyue patted her head, "Changfu, don't go to collect pigs today, you hurry to the town now, find Blacksmith Wang, and make me a pair of fire tongs." ”

"The top is the shape of scissors, and the scissors below are changed to two straight iron rods. By the way, buy forty more iron rods, and I'll get you a small stick, just buy this long one. ”

"If you can't do it well on the spot, how much is on Blacksmith Wang's side, and how much you can take. It's the money you carry. ”

Liu Changfu heard his mother's words, nodded, took it, and the copper coins and silver handed over by his mother, "Mother, I'll go!" ”

After Liu Changfu left, Li Xiaoyue began to arrange, "Changlu has a long life, you drive the family's ox cart today and continue to pull Shi Ni powder." ”

Liu Changlu didn't want to go, "Mother, I don't know if this honeycomb coal will work?" Let's wait until we're done with it, how about pulling the stone powder into our home? ”

At this time, Wu Cuihong smiled and said: "Second brother, you don't know if you don't cook, I know that this honeycomb coal is really very useful!" ”

"When I was cooking this morning, I put a piece of honeycomb coal in the stove, and I used half a bundle of firewood at home!"

Zhou Xiaohua saw that her mother-in-law liked her eldest brother and sister-in-law more and more, so she quickly twisted her husband's arm, why refute her mother-in-law if she had nothing to do? When I made my mother-in-law unhappy, I would trouble them.

"Mother is in charge, mother asks you to do it, you do it, where is so much nonsense? Look at the eldest brother, you can do whatever your mother tells you to do! ”

When Liu Changlu heard this, he smiled and smiled, feeling that his mother had changed a lot, and it was indeed not as easy to coax as before, "Mother, I'm going to pull Shi Ni powder." ”

Liu Changshou is silent and not good at talking, anyway, the old lady and brother will do whatever they want.

Li Sanqiang was idle and fine, so he also came over to help.

Li Xiaoyue took a handkerchief and reminded them, "If the stone powder is inhaled into the body, it is not good for the lungs, don't take it seriously." Even if you don't feel it now, you will get sick later. ”

"Sister-in-law, I know." Li Sanqiang took it and stuffed it in the placket. Li Xiaoyue was idle, so she found a few more layers of linen cloth, sewn a handkerchief inside, and made it into a mask, which should be able to block some dust.

Liu Changfu's feet were very fast, and he came back in more than an hour, holding fire tongs.

Li Xiaoyue put the red-hot honeycomb coal into the stove with fire tongs, and then put two new pieces of honeycomb coal on it.

The casserole is filled with water on top of the stove, and the door below is opened, just waiting for the effect.

Wu Cuihong is usually responsible for cooking at home, and she is more attentive to the stove, so she comes over from time to time to take a look.

"Mother, the stove is getting more and more prosperous!"

"Mother, the water in the casserole has started!"

"Mother, the water is boiling! It's not noon yet, but I want to use the stove to cook, otherwise the fire is so strong that it would be a waste to keep burning. ”

Li Xiaoyue smiled as she watched her eldest daughter-in-law become lively and interesting because of a stove.

"Stupid! Of course, it can't be so prosperous all the time. Isn't there a furnace door on the side? Cover the door directly, and the fire inside will not burn strongly. ”

"When it's time to cook, you just remove the lid underneath. By the way, wait until the bottom piece of honeycomb coal is black, don't forget to exchange the bottom piece of honeycomb coal with fire tongs, and put a new piece on the top. ”

"By the way, this is very hot, let the big girl and the dog stay away, don't get hot."

Wu Cuihong understood, smiled and nodded, "Mother, I know, I will be careful." ”

Li Sanqiang and Liu Changfu made two more stoves, which were better than Li Xiaoyue.

Li Xiaoyue was very satisfied, "Lift these two stoves to the ox cart, by the way, Changfu, you pick two baskets of honeycomb coal." I'll send it to your grandfather. ”

"Hey!" Liu Changfu smiled, he didn't expect the honeycomb coal and stove at home to be so easy to use, "With this stove, my aunt can cook more briskly." ”

"Yes!" Li Xiaoyue nodded, this money-making business opportunity was a success.

Although it is hard money, it doesn't earn much, but it adds up to a lot, not to mention that the raw materials of stone nirvana powder and loess do not need money, which greatly reduces costs.

As soon as I arrived at Li's house at the back of the village, I saw that Li Laohan had already sold pork and came back.

Li Laohan swept his eyes and saw the honeycomb coal and stove on the ox cart, "Girl, can this thing be used?" ”

Without waiting for Li Xiaoyue to answer, Li Sanqiang replied first: "Grandpa, it can be used, my sister-in-law's family has already used it just now." ”

"Hurry up and take it down, I'll take a look." Li Laohan became interested and asked his grandson and grandson to move the stove down.

"Changfu, you go home again, bring over more honeycomb coal made yesterday morning, and find a dry place to put it away."

Liu Changfu responded, and said with a smile: "Mother, I'll go up." ”

Li Laohan was cautious and did not dare to move to the kitchen, but put it in the yard.

Li Sanqiang had already added honeycomb coal to it, and then put the casserole at home on it, and the water in the casserole boiled after a while.

Sister-in-law Li and her two daughters-in-law also came around, they usually cook and do housework at home, and they instantly understood the magic of this stove.

Sister-in-law Li praised, "Xiaoyue's brain is the light, stir-frying can save trouble, you don't have to stuff firewood while stir-frying, and you also have to prevent dust from falling into the pot of stir-frying." ”

The eldest nephew and daughter-in-law also looked around the stove, "It will be convenient to boil water in the future, and there will be hot water for washing clothes in winter, so there is no need to consume firewood." Sister-in-law, no wonder grandpa praises you all day long, you are smart. ”

Li Xiaoyue smiled modestly, "I just had a flash of inspiration, the stove is in the kitchen, and the window is open." Even if it's cold, don't leave the stove in the house. ”

"Got it, sister-in-law." The eldest nephew and daughter-in-law should go down, Shi Ni is poisonous, and they all know that it is the same as charcoal, and it must be ventilated.

Li Laohan saw that everyone praised his daughter, and he was happier than he praised him, it turned out that this honeycomb coal can really be used!

"Xiaoyue, why did the cauldron at the door change to use honeycomb coal like this?"

Li Xiaoyue went over to take a look, "Dad, don't make a big move, go to Wang Tiehan to get a round shelf, put it at the bottom, and put a few iron rods on it." After getting it done, plug most of the stove and leave a vent underneath. ”

"You don't need honeycomb coal for this stove, use honeycomb coal to sieve out the stone nirvana block, and put it directly into it. It is also convenient to start a fire, and there is a honeycomb stove at home, just clip a piece of honeycomb coal from it. ”

"Don't move the bellows, leave them as they are. With this, the elder brother and nephews did not need to go to the mountains to cut wood. ”

Li Laohan kills at least one pig every day, and if there is a festival, he needs to kill four or five, and he needs a lot of hot water and firewood every day.

The Li family has two people who are responsible for chopping firewood every day, and with a coal stove, two laborers can be saved.

The more Li Laohan looked at it, the more he liked it, "Not bad! Very good! ”

"Dad, do you think this stove and honeycomb coal can be sold?" Li Xiaoyue asked, she wanted to buy the abandoned Shini mine as soon as possible.

"It can be sold, and the stone is similar to charcoal, and it can't be used in a sealed space." Li Laohan was shrewd and made a decision immediately, "It's convenient and clean, it doesn't take up space, it's a good thing." Let's go, I'll take you to the village chief now. ”

Li Xiaoyue was recognized, not to mention how happy she was, and followed Li Laohan with a smile.

When the thin old village chief heard that Li Laohan agreed with his daughter to buy the abandoned Shini mine, he was so angry that he stretched out his thin finger and pointed at the father and daughter, and couldn't help but get mad.
