204 Sand mining
In the blink of an eye, it is the eighth day of the first month.
Although Lin Yi didn't want to live a pampered life, Qin Shuihan didn't say a word about the process plan of the glass in the past two days.
She was a little ashamed, presumably she was too naΓ―ve, but when it came to mining and transportation, it was indeed a huge undertaking to think about.
After all, some things can only be imagined and cannot be studied in detail.
Lin Yi sighed faintly, his glass plan died before it began.
She called out to Biyue, picked up the medical bag, and walked towards Leng Bin's guest room.
Seeing Lin Yi coming, Leng Bin swished and put away the information in his hand.
Lin Yi blinked, a little confused.
Obviously guarding yourself......
To ask, or not to ask?
That's a problem.
"Hehe, I'm very busy with official business..."
Leng Bin smiled shyly and did not answer.
However, those documents were the materials that Brother Xuan gave him last night, saying that the tool room was going to open up a new manufacturing industry, and it was to be kept secret from the princess for the time being.
Why keep it a secret from the princess?
Leng Bin glanced at Lin Yi again, a little puzzled.
Leng Fang was also a little curious, when Brother Xuan said that he would keep it secret from the princess yesterday, there was a hint of joy in his tone.
Lin Yi sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Leng Bin's ankles, and asked, "How is today?" β
"My subordinate feels a little bit in his toes, not as unconscious as before."
Although Leng Bin had been lying on the bed, he tried to move his toes, and he had a different feeling than before.
At first, I thought it was my own delusion, but when I subconsciously moved my toes recently, it was really different!
He believed that it was not his own delusion, and that it was indeed different from before.
The surprise in Lin Yi's eyes overflowed on his face.
On the sixth day after the operation, I was back to this state, which was much better than I expected.
She nodded to Biyue.
Biyue immediately lifted Leng Bin's quilt, pulled open the strip of cloth, cut the gauze, and quickly changed the medicine.
Lin Yi looked relieved, worthy of being his good assistant.
She stared at Leng Bin's wound and breathed a sigh of relief.
"The wound is recovering well, maybe it won't be fifteen days before we can start training."
Leng Bin pointed to the crutches next to the screen.
"Princess, do you mean using that thing for training?"
Looking in the direction Leng Bin pointed, Lin Yi saw a cane placed behind the screen.
I didn't expect Shui Han to have made a crutch and didn't tell himself, this bastard!
Lin Yi walked over, picked up the crutches and looked at it, it was the same as what he had drawn, and he really wanted to give the tool master a thumbs up.
But in this case, we have to quickly place the parallel bars.
"Biyue, you find someone to invite a carpenter to come over, I want to set up a shelf in this room, and Leng Bin will practice walking in this room at that time."
Unexpectedly, the best carpenter in the capital rushed to the Hanwang Mansion in the afternoon.
Lin Yi hurriedly rushed from Jinghan Pavilion to the guest room, thinking that today was the last day of the holiday, why didn't he see the figure of the cold water.
The moment she saw the carpenter, she was a little surprised.
Behind the master carpenter was a follower carrying a large wooden box.
Isn't it heavy to carry it like this?
But he is worthy of being the best carpenter in the capital, and there is no superfluous word.
Don't flaunt, don't flatter, just stand aside with low eyebrows and wait for the guests to make requests.
Lin Yi picked up the pen and paper on the table, made a few stick figures, and immediately drew a parallel bar figure.
"Master, the two poles are six feet long, four feet high, and two and a half feet wide, mainly because they can bear the weight of six or seven hundred catties. Can you do this? β
The carpenter pondered for a moment, opened the wooden box that his attendant was carrying, and saw that there were neat stacks of tools and wood of different materials inside, and he knocked on it and nodded.
"If you go back to the princess, the villain can make what the princess wants."
Lin Yi saw that he finally landed his hand on a piece of wood with a yellow color, presumably that wood should be very strong.
That is the hardest wood, Hainan yellow sandalwood.
"How long will it take?"
The carpenter pondered for a moment, then replied, "Five days." β
"Then it's troublesome for the master."
The matter of parallel bars is also settled, and Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it is done step by step, the recovery of Leng Bin's legs and feet is within her calculations.
The day quickly ended in the sunset.
At night, Lin Yi still didn't see Qin Shuihan's figure, she yawned a lot, and finally couldn't wait to climb into bed first.
Qin Shuihan rushed back to the house in the middle of the night, hesitated, and went to Jinghan Pavilion.
And Lin Yi, who finally felt the familiar atmosphere, immediately turned over and hugged him.
Qin Shuihan, who had just come back from outside, was still very cold in his hands.
Lin Yi was suddenly awakened, she frowned and pretended not to be awake, pressing his hand into her arms and covering it.
Qin Shuihan was in a dilemma, knowing that his hands were cold, but he was pressed by Lin Yi and held in his arms, seeing that she was asleep, he could only let her hold it.
I thought to myself, she was not afraid of the cold.
But my heart was happy, but I didn't expect Yiyi to feel sorry for herself when she fell asleep.
It didn't take long for dawn to dawn, and Qin Shuihan turned on the working mode as always.
Practice, early dynasty.
And Lin Yi, on his side, slept until three poles in the sun.
But today, Qin Shuihan brought her a surprise.
"Yiyi, clean up and go to Banzhu."
"Itachi?"
Lin Yi's eyes widened, that dock?
She put down the book in her hand and suddenly realized something.
Qin Shuihan's court robe had been changed, and he stood in front of the suitcase, looking at the azure brocade robe, and hesitated for a moment.
"Yiyi, let's wear couple's clothes together today?"
Lin Yi looked at the azure brocade robe in her hand, then at the lotus blue Confucian skirt on her body, and nodded hurriedly.
She likes azure, and prefers to see him wear azure.
"Shui Han, I'm ready."
Lin Yi stretched out his hand and turned around, this azure jacket skirt has a very heavy texture, and the skirt is embroidered with group patterns.
And Qin Shuihan's brocade robe is embroidered with twig patterns, which is very similar in Lin Yi's eyes.
Qin Shuihan hooked the corners of his mouth and pulled her towards the door.
After getting into the carriage, Qin Shuihan immediately said: "The mining matter is supervised by Yuan Kuishan, but he doesn't know what kind of stone you want, so let's rush over now to confirm." β
Lin Yi finally reacted, his glass plan, Qin Shuihan had already put it into action.
"Why don't you tell me?"
Lin Yi's laughter was mixed with a hint of complaint.
"You've been busy with my business these two days?"
Qin Shuihan didn't deny it, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"The old rule, you lie down, I'll massage you."
Qin Shuihan was slightly stunned, then obediently lay on Lin Yi's lap, and soon closed his eyes relaxedly.
This gentle gesture seems to have been a long time ago.
"Yiyi, if your leg is numb, wake me up immediately."
The carriage went all the way, although Lin Yi's legs were numb for a long time, she was willing to wake him up.
When it was finally time to reach Banzhu, Qin Shui opened his eyes suddenly.
Where is this?
Why do you sleep so deeply?
He noticed that his legs and feet were hot.
When I looked up, it turned out that Yiyi had put Tang Yuan on her ankle.
As soon as his legs and feet were warm, he slept more soundly, and Qin Shuihan stuffed Tang Yuan to Lin Yi again.
"Yiyi, you don't wake me up."
"You said that you woke you up because of numbness in your legs, and if your legs are not numb, you don't need to wake you up."
"Crooked."
The corners of Qin Shuihan's eyebrows were raised, and he didn't believe that her legs and feet were not numb.
He dragged Lin Yi into his arms, closed his eyes and hooked the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly.
Relax your vigilance so much outside, how can you protect her, you can't sleep for so long next time.
Finally arrived at Bannagi.
Unlike the previous two times, Banzhu Pier at this time is very lively.
There are all kinds of boats and a constant stream of people.
There was a faint smell of fish in the carriage, Lin Yi couldn't help but lift the curtain, I didn't expect it to be so lively here, although there is no prosperity in the capital, but it shows the simplicity of market life.
Qin Shuihan frowned, and instinctively took out a handkerchief to cover his nose, he likes to eat fish, but he doesn't like such a fishy taste.
Lin Yi immediately lowered the car curtain, people's taste is really strange, although the fishy smell is not liked, but it is better than the smell of blood.
"Do you like fish?"
Qin Shuihan nodded innocently with his eyes in his eyes.
"Those fish are too pitiful, you dislike them before cooking, and you eat them after cooking."
Seeing Lin Yi's uneven appearance for the fish, Qin Shuihan snorted and stuffed the handkerchief into his sleeve.
It's just a fishy smell!
But it didn't take long for both of them to cover their noses in love.
"Shui Han, what does this smell like?"
Qin Shuihan pulled the curtain with a hideous expression, and looked out, a jar of black things was placed on the side of the road, and there were still a few people standing on the side of the vat without changing their faces.
Lin Yi also poked his head out.
The three words of Li Jiapu came into view.
Something flashed through her mind, it turned out to be the shop with a mysterious holiday time.
Qin Shuihan commanded helplessly: "Xuanfeng, hurry, hurry up!" β
At this time, Xuan Feng had already covered his nose, and he glanced at the vat on the side.
It is said that this is a kind of sauce in Youbei, but can this thing really be eaten?
He didn't have time to think, and whipped his horsewhip hard.
The carriage finally arrived at its destination, and an official in an official uniform waited at the county office with a group of people.
"Humble to meet His Royal Highness the King of Han."
Chen Jinglan, the county magistrate at the head, knelt respectfully on the ground.
Qin Shuihan didn't get off the horse, but just leaned out half of his body to say hello.
At this time, his heart was haggard, and the stench just now was still in his mind.
"Master Chen, I'm tired."
Chen Jinglan was slightly stunned.
The Cold King's voice was low, with a hint of indescribable softness, not as cold and majestic as the rumors.
He breathed a sigh of relief, today's task was finally completed, and he could go to have fun again.
Xuan Feng rushed to Shashi Mountain with a group of people from the county government office.
The sun is sinking in the west, and it is about to get dark.
Yuan Kuishan is still mining with a group of masonry.
"Yiyi, come, get out of the car, go and determine the stone."
Lin Yi patted her cheek and couldn't wait to jump out of the carriage.
At a glance, I saw that the foot of the mountain was lined with baskets.
How can such a large mesh carry sand?
She frowned and immediately ran over.
The yellow stones in the basket suddenly made her heart half cold.
I want sand, not stone!
It seems that they have done useless work.
She grabbed a worker and immediately asked, "What about Yuan Kuishan?" Call him here! β
Seeing Lin Yi pulling him, the man was slightly stunned, and then groveled and said, "The villain is going to call Foreman Yuan." β
After a while, Yuan Kuishan rushed over, although the weather was very cold, he was so hot that he only wore a robe, and sweat was dripping from his head.
"Miss Yi, you're here."
Yuan Kuishan wiped the sweat from his forehead, and suddenly realized that Lin Yi in front of him was not an ordinary woman.
"No, no, Princess Han, you're here!"
Yuan Kuishan immediately changed his words, and recalled in his mind the scene when Qin Shuihan appeared in his yard the day before yesterday.
He swallowed.
The day before yesterday, Qin Shuihan took a group of people to Yuan Kuishan's house.
Looking at the carriage at the door, Cai Yue and Cai Yu ran out first, but when they saw the two rows of guards, they immediately froze in place.
Even if Qin Shuihan got out of the carriage, the two of them stood still and didn't dare to step forward.
Is this the big brother?
Although he had met twice, Cai Yue felt that today's eldest brother was completely different, perhaps because the attendants on both sides were too majestic, so frightened that he immediately pulled his sister to hide behind his aunt.
"Childe... It's you..."
Chen Mulan shouted resignedly, and she didn't dare to step forward.
Qin Shuihan saw their restraints, and only took Xuan Feng to the house.
He got straight to the point and said: "This king is the fifth prince of the dynasty, King Han, and he wants to trouble Brother Yuan if he has something." β
After speaking, he directly handed Yuan Kuishan 10,000 taels of silver tickets.
"Brother Yuan, the barren mountain that Yimu said before, please go find some masonry to mine."
Yuan Kuishan took the silver ticket tremblingly, his brain still blank.
Chen Mulan pulled him to his knees.
"The villain... The villain must complete what His Royal Highness the King of Han explained. β
After saying that, they didn't dare to look up again.
"Brother Yuan, Sister Chen, please get up."
Qin Shuihan's mind flashed the scene that Lin Yi didn't like others to bow down.
Although I am very accustomed to the prostration of others, if I think about it carefully, I can't see the expression of the person who is kneeling, which is indeed a little inconvenient.
The couple in front of them will not harbor malicious intentions, but what about those ministers who are disobedient?
"Meet Big Brother!"
Cai Yue and Cai Yu also knelt on the ground like their uncle and aunt.
Qin Shuihan shook his head and motioned for Xuan Feng to pull them up.
"Brother Yuan, that mountain is Yimu - the princess of this king wants to mine, please be sure to complete her task."
Yuan Kuishan stood aside, not daring to look at his face.
But it was at that moment that he finally realized that Lin Yi was not joking, he really wanted to mine that barren mountain.
"The villain must complete the task assigned by King Han and Princess Han!"
Lin Yi saw that he was a little distracted, so he took out a handkerchief and handed it over.
"Brother Yuan, are you okay? Wipe off the sweat! β
Yuan Kuishan came back to his senses, took the handkerchief and wiped his sweat.
It's just that the handkerchief seems to smell bad.
He glanced at Lin Yi again.
Such a beautiful and lovely princess, this smell is definitely impossible for Miss Yi!
Lin Yi didn't realize that there was something wrong with the handkerchief, and her eyes were always on the barren mountain.
"Brother Yuan, I don't want these things, what I want is the sand under these clods, the whiter the better."
Yuan Kuishan looked confused.
"Sand?"
Lin Yi nodded.
"yes, I'm not mistaken, you believe me, I just want this sand."
She glanced at the baskets behind the masonry, these baskets were useless, but she couldn't manage so much, so she handed them over to Yuan Kuishan.
Yuan Kuishan shouted loudly, and the working masonry stopped one after another.
They looked at the young and beautiful woman beside the foreman, and wondered why such a richly dressed woman appeared at the foot of the barren mountain.
"Listen, guys! Don't want these earth and stones, but sand. β
Sand?
The masonry was a little confused.
Seeing their bewildered looks, Lin Yi picked up the hoe beside Yuan Kuishan, walked to the foot of the mountain behind him and tapped on the air-dried surface, only to see that the brown clods of soil were covered with different shades of sand and gravel.
Lin Yi picked up a handful of sand and stones and said to everyone: "Please master to mine this kind of sand, try to get this kind of transparent and white particles, not dark particles." β
She poured the sand in her hand to Yuan Kuishan and asked him to take a closer look at what she wanted.
Han Shui Han walked to Lin Yi's side silently, fortunately brought her over to make sure, if it was really a lot of trouble to transport these things to the tool room, it would still not work.
Lin Yi took his arm and leaned on his shoulder.
"Shui Han, thank you."
When she finally took her first steps in making glass, she was full of excitement.
The first step of the long march is definitely a milestone!
