I was exiled after wearing a book

Chapter 76

Fighting, especially this kind of pursuit, is very exhausting and dangerous. If you don't pay attention, you will die.

Although they won this time, more than 3 of the 1000 people who went together also died, and 2000 people were slightly injured or seriously injured.

Dr. Zhou took medicine, two apprentices, and several older children in the compound who would bandage after studying medicine. Jiang Xin bought a hundred pigs, a hundred sheep, plus round-grained rice and milled Three thousand catties of good white flour, three hundred pieces of coarse cloth, three hundred pieces of fine cotton cloth, and 1 taels of silver.

Jiang Xin's generosity surprised both the Jiang family and the Qin family, while Jiang He asked directly: "Sister, you are usually so stingy, why are you so generous this time, do you have a plan?"

Just as Jiang Cunliang entered the door, Qin Lang and Jiang Zhen were still busy in the garrison. Hearing what the younger daughter said about the older daughter, they just smiled and continued to eat dumplings. For more than 20 days, they were officially killed.

Xiao Hu and his sister-in-law also looked over, Jiang Xin rolled his eyes and said: "It is necessary to support the garrison, okay, we will be safe when they are well, what do you know, besides, am I stingy?"

Jiang Cunliang didn't expect his daughter to have such thoughts, nodded and said: "Okay, let's have a better life, and give back to the garrison, it's very good."

General Fang usually holds some banquets, and the banquets are all rich businessmen from the entire Zhizhou. The purpose is not to win over, but to solicit donations in disguise. Well, while he is going to fight, he has to find a way to make money. His father is bald now, and his hairline has moved back a lot. I feel that the hair on his head is probably too suffocating.

It was a pleasant surprise to receive the items Jiang Xin took the initiative to send. These items can improve the food of the entire garrison, and the money can also buy a lot of food.

The three inventions that Jiang Xin gave to the garrison before, the ratio of cement slurry, the straw rope machine, and the improved plowing tool, he also operated it and exchanged some supplies. I heard that it was quite big, but I didn't expect that people sent a large amount of supplies and money without waiting for him to speak, which really relieved the urgent need.

The soldiers ate stewed mutton that night, fried pork slices with Chinese cabbage, rice with mixed grains, and steamed buns with white noodles. According to the logistics, the ingredients will be released the next day, and everyone is happy like a Chinese New Year.

Qin Lang only came back the next afternoon. His body was dirty, his hair and beard had grown, and there were some scratches on his face and arms, but they were not serious, and he didn't even need to take medicine.

When Qin Lang went to take a bath, Jiang Xin hugged the three-month-old Hu Niu and ordered the kitchen to cook spicy chicken nuggets, pickled fish, white-cut mutton, hot and sour chicken offal, roasted duck in sauce, meatballs, and crispy pork. They set up two tables.

The two families eat a lot, and the kitchen has a large amount of food. The leftover Jiang Xin asked to fill the servant's meal, and it was considered an extra meal.

Jiang Cunliang was better, but the food was delicious. Qin Lang and Jiang Zhen were like two hungry wolves. The lotus root meatballs made by Jiang Xin were as big as a girl's fist. Together, they ate them in two bites.

As soon as he swallowed it, he picked up several slices of fat and thin white-cut mutton, dipped it in some water, and ate it in one bite. Jiang Zhen showed a surprised look, and when he swallowed it, he said embarrassedly: "This white-cut mutton is really delicious. ah!"

The food on Qin Lang's side looked gentle, but the portions were astonishingly large. After Jiang Xin finished eating, he wanted to sit down and drink tea. Jiang Zhen stood up and took the white cut meat and meatballs left on the female table. It's all over.

Jiang He said to Jiang Xin who was hugging Hu Niu with a speechless expression: "My brother hasn't eaten in eight lifetimes?"

It is indeed hard work in the field, especially this time they are engaged in chasing and ambush warfare. There is no way to eat hot food along the way, and they are all living on dry food and cold water.

Jiang Xin greeted the servant girl and gave the casserole soup for digestion. There is dried hawthorn in the house last year, served with some sour plums, tangerine peel, and rock sugar. Drinking it can help digestion.

When Jiang Zhen was full and stopped to drink tea, Qin Lang was cleaning up the remaining pieces of fish on the plate. There were many fish bones and people with sharp foreheads were afraid of getting stuck, so they all went to eat large pieces of meat. Qin Lang picked and ate all the fish on the two tables in a slow manner. In the end, he even scraped off a layer of crispy rice in the pot and soaked it in pickled fish soup.

Seeing this, Mr. Qin was a little helpless. He was really embarrassed, so he went to the study to drink tea.

Jiang Zhen said with emotion: "Oh, Qin Lang, you can really eat!"

Qin Lang ate all the stir-fried vegetables. There were twelve empty plates on the table, even the soup bowls were empty. Jiang Xin glanced at Qin Lang and saw that he was still full of ideas. He sighed and said, "The kitchen is here. Chop meat and eat wontons for supper."

Qin Lang's eyes lit up, and he got up and went to the study. Where is the old man waiting? He should be discussing the battle.

Jiang Xin gave the child to his sister-in-law who was resting, and asked the kitchen staff to weigh out a few bowls of the digesting soup and send it to Qin's study. He called his brother and dad to go there first.

Now this study room is specially designed by Jiang Xin. The outside room looks like a conference room, with a custom-made long table in the middle, and then there are chairs with backrests covered with cotton cushions.

This table is a whole tree. The two sides were cut off, leaving a [-]-centimeter piece in the middle. It started to be polished, and there were irregular wood patterns around it. After polishing, it was painted with a layer of varnish, and the whole was very beautiful.

There is also a tea table made of stone on the side, and there is a small clay stove squatting on it, where you can drink tea and talk about things.

The servants brought the soup for digestion. Except for Jiang Xin, even the old man Qin brought a bowl. Seeing everyone looking over, the old man said a little shyly: "The more people eat, the more delicious it is. I accidentally ate too much."

Everyone smiled slightly, and did not laugh at the old man. It is estimated that Qin Lang is not here these days, and he is worried that he will not be able to eat well and rest well. When the grandson came back, he felt relieved and his appetite increased.

Jiang Xin boiled water, made tea, and served a cup to Qin Lang after finishing the soup.

Qin Lang blew, took a sip of water, and said, "This time it was really hard. I had already scouted the place, but after I went there, those people suddenly disappeared."

Jiang Xin frowned and said, "Is there a traitor?"

Qin Lang nodded slightly: "I'm afraid it is, but it's a little late for Beiyi to get the news. If we chase after them, they will run out of the col, but we will still block them."

With a sullen face, Jiang Cunliang took the small teacup given by his daughter, took a sip, and said, "I have already reported what happened to General Fang, and he said that he had noticed it before, this time it should be confirmed that there are spies in the garrison, or Someone just got bought."

Jiang Zhen thumped the wooden table heavily, and said bitterly: "If I know who did it, I will definitely tear his corpse into pieces!"

This time the casualties were more than half of what was expected. If they succeed in their surprise attack and make dumplings for the Beiyi army, the Beiyi army will be caught off guard, and they may still be burying their pots for cooking, and they are all in the tent. It will be no problem to kill more than half of them. of.

But he didn't expect that when they arrived, the Beiyi army seemed to have foreseen the news in advance. They had already rode their horses, dropped their tents and all their supplies and ran away. Fortunately, there was an ambush in the direction of escape.

It's just that the Beiyi army has more personnel than the ambush, and a pair of soldiers from the Great Zhou Dynasty suffered a lot of damage.

This is also an important reason for the casualties.

Mr. Qin had been drinking the soup silently, and when he was done, he rinsed his mouth with a cup of tea before he said leisurely, "Could it have something to do with Qianji Pavilion?"

What Qianji Pavilion has done in recent years is to destroy the national destiny, set up hundreds of cult organizations, and killer organizations, and treason through foreign countries. It is estimated that it is not their purpose. It should be to weaken the border defense force and make the invasion of Beiyi into a foreign invasion. , causing the people to worry unceasingly, thus losing confidence in the Great Zhou government.

Several people thought about it, and felt that what the old man said was very reasonable.Qin Lang took out a long dagger with a scabbard from his arms and handed it to Jiang Xin.

Everyone looked at Jiang Xin. Jiang Xin looked at the gems inlaid in the dagger's grip, which can blind people's eyes, even on the scabbard. Qin Lang ignored everyone's gaze and said, "I already had a little There is an eye, but the person has not moved, it should not be long before there will be news."

Jiang Xin also opened the dagger, everyone's eyes came back, the cold light was shining, and it was extremely sharp at first glance.Jiang Zhen stared at Qin Lang, Qin Lang touched his chin, but didn't dare to look up.

Jiang Xin touched the gemstone on the dagger, and accepted it with satisfaction.

Jiang Cunliang watched from the side, didn't say anything, her daughter is a child with ideas, and she has her own sense of propriety, so she didn't say anything, but Mr. Qin looked at his grandson with a smile, and then at Jiang Xin, smiling very happily, just like a Like a kitten that ate it.

Jiang Xin blushed from the laughter, and waved her hand with a dagger: "I'm going back to sleep."

He left without turning his head after he finished speaking. It would be too rude to do this normally, but today's situation is special, everyone just smiled and didn't say much.

When Jiang Xin returned to the courtyard, she saw Huan Ya, the assistant arranged for her sister-in-law, waiting nearby. When she saw Jiang Xin, she turned sideways to salute.

In Jiang Xin's yard, there was an old woman who showed the gate of the yard. She was a dumb mother-in-law. She usually just cleaned and worked, and she was very quiet.

Jiang Xin called people to sit down, and she also lay on the rocking chair. Huan Ya sat on the pier, and said with a serious expression: "Boss, the youngest son brought back by Feng's family has come to see Mrs. Eldest and Young Madam three times. The first time I met by chance, the second time I brought food to the sugar workshop, and the third time is today, I entered the sugar workshop."

Jiang Xin nodded and asked to continue talking. The dumb woman here has already brought the wooden bucket. This is the wooden bucket Jiang Xin used to soak her feet. She boiled the prepared herbal water in a ceramic basin and soaked her feet at night, which is very comfortable.

Jiang Xin soaked her feet, and the dumb woman brought a bowl of bird's nest. Jiang Xin made a gesture, and the dumb woman went out to bring another bowl to Huanya. Huanya knew about bird's nest, and had studied it in the compound. Different types How to distinguish good from bad bird's nest, and also know the price and efficacy.

So she shook her head resolutely, Jiang Xin said with a smile: "Eat it, it's all served for you, eat a bowl."

Huan Ya thanked and took it over, took a small bite, the taste was similar to white fungus, but smoother.

Jiang Xin asked: "What did you say when you came today?"

Huanya said seriously: "I just said that I am bored at home and want to go out to play, but Feng's mother is very strict, and she also said that she misses her little niece, and asks the young lady to bring more children back."

Next, Huanya repeated everything Feng Zixiang said before and after.

Jiang Xin nodded: "Then what did my sister-in-law say?"

"The eldest young lady loves the young master very much. She just said that if he gets bored, let him come and play with me." Ya Huan said, after drinking the bird's nest in the bowl, she continued: "I think the sugar workshop is not suitable for outsiders. I have also seen these days, there are too many secrets in it, and if one is not handled well, it is easy to be learned by others."

Jiang Xin nodded, and explained: "Keep watching, and report to me if there is any situation."

A few people from Qin Lang had already arranged to investigate, and the whole town of Zhen'an was also starting to investigate again. The head of Ma Da's side also told about people who were acting strangely, and he agreed to pay attention to them.

As for whether the sister-in-law will reveal the formula, Jiang Xin is not very worried. The formula for the precipitation medicine is simple to say, but the ratio of the ratio is very strict, and it is not something you can get out of a few times or even hundreds of experiments.

Jiang Xin did not indicate the required temperature, but made a thermometer without a temperature number, and only marked the required temperature. When the position is measured, the fire can be removed.

These are all methods prepared by Jiang Xin in advance, and they won't let you learn it all at once.

Especially now all of them are using the kind of combined machinery, hand-cranked and dehydrated. They are all combined. The reason for the use is not known to people. The workers only know what to shake to be considered good. I don't know why.

Jiang Xin won't say these things to the outside world. Even Fan Chunhua has worked in the sugar factory for almost a year, but only strictly follows the order of production requirements, and no one knows the principles contained in it.

It happened that Feng Xiuxiang had been working in the sugar workshop for a month, and Jiang He was in charge of the sugar workshop's salary payment. She had breakfast early in the morning, put on Jiang Xin's sugar workshop uniform, and set off with Jiang Xin Yes, with a big money box.

After arriving, Jiang Xin looked at the account books, and Jiang He checked the workers' attendance and overtime hours, and calculated wages and some subsidies.

After lunch, Jiang He began to pay wages one after another. According to Jiang Xin's regulations, the person who manages the sugar workshop is paid 50 taels a month.

Feng Xiuxiang was so excited that she was holding a large 50 tael ingot, and carefully put it in her purse, but the purse was too small, and the silver ingot was too big, she smiled and asked her younger sister to help her hold it first, and then went home Give it to her again.

Here, Jiang Xin pays monthly wages on a monthly basis, and never defaults. As long as the workers pass the trial for one day, the wages will be paid on the tenth day of the month.

　I'm ashamed to say that I'm still in a bad situation today, hey, I'm really sorry, I didn't add more.Because the epidemic is over, I still can't go out, but the company's work still needs to be done. I have been contacting the community and the epidemic prevention station all day long, asking for some proof of going out.Feel sorry.Good night, okay?
