Infrastructure: I survive in troubled times

"It's not easy, pick up a knife and gun, and fight with them!" Lan Hai said excitedly.

"Defend your own homeland, what Lan Hai said is right." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with dark eyes like ink and said.

"When will Mrs. Hong enlist? I will be the first to sign up." Lan Hai said excitedly.

"You can't, you're under the age, and your body needs to be raised for half a year." Hong Lianshuo looked at him with clear eyes and said.

"How old are you when you joined the army!"

"Eighteen, one year old." Hong Lianshuo said clearly, "We will talk about the specific issues of conscription later. Let's take all the food back now!"

"Then when will the house building start?"

Hong Lianshuo looked at them one by one anxiously and said, "We'll wait until the master who built the house arrives, now go catch mice and catch them for rations."

"Ah!" Everyone looked at Hong Lianshuo in astonishment, "I heard that right!"

"Catch mice?"

"Yes, to catch mice." Hong Lianshuo nodded heavily.

"Why! Although rats are not a fun thing, why are you so serious about it!"

"We came from Yandu City, you know it!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with bottomless black eyes and said.

"Ah..." They looked at Hong Lianshuo in horror, and all took a step back.

"What are you afraid of! A good person means he has defeated the plague."

"It's been so long, if the plague had passed, this person would have died long ago."

"That's right!" They all breathed a sigh of relief, "It's all right."

"Then is there a plague in Yandu City?"

"Yes, but he was cured." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with a smile on his face and said.

"Healed?"

"Miracle doctor!"

"How are your illnesses?" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with gentle eyes and said.

"Relieved."

"It's clearly improved."

"All right."

"Now you are asked to kill the rats because the rats spread diseases." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with dark eyes and said.

"Don't worry! We will destroy them."

"There are also flies and mosquitoes, which must be exterminated together. They also spread diseases." Hong Lianshuo's dark eyes swept over them and said.

"No problem." They responded readily.

"I'm going back to catch mice now, so I can exchange for rations."

"Yes!" Hong Lianshuo smiled and nodded.

"Hula..." A lot of people ran away at once, pointing to the elders waiting to pay taxes.

"They are aggressive." Chen Zhongyuan shook his head and laughed, then turned to Hong Lianshuo and asked, "There must be a standard for catching mice!"

"Five mice for a bowl of sorghum rice." Hong Lianshuo thought for a while and said.

"Hey!" Chen Zhongyuan responded crisply, "There must be enough flies and mosquitoes!"

"It's calculated by catty." Hong Lianshuo said as he looked at them with raised eyebrows when he heard the words.

"This thing has been delivered, what should I do with it!" Chen Zhongyuan said with disgust.

"Set up a fire and burn them." Hong Lianshuo said bluntly.

"Okay." Chen Zhongyuan replied loudly.

"You guys get busy!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with clear eyes and said.

Chen Zhongyuan and the others bowed their hands and watched Hong Lianshuo leave.

Hong Lianshuo looked back at Mo Sanya who was not far behind him and said, "Sanya, go back and find Mr. Cao and the master to build houses and roads."

"Hey!" Mo Sanya nodded in response, "I'm leaving now."

"Wait a minute! I'll write a letter, you take it." Hong Lianshuo told him who turned around after hearing the words, returned to the room, wrote the letter concisely and clearly, and handed it to Mo Sanya, "Arrange someone to come over, the main force They are still the people of the county town. Don’t worry about the autumn seeds being unmanned.” He smiled and said, “Come here in a carriage.”

"Yes!" Mo Sanya answered with cupped hands, "Is there anything else you want to explain?"

"It's gone." Hong Lianshuo looked at him with clear eyes and shook his head slightly, "Go!"

"Leave me from my humble position." Mo Sanya cupped her hands and turned to leave.

After planting in autumn, the construction of houses and roads in the county will be fully rolled out, and their enthusiasm will be high.

"I don't think there is anyone cheating or cheating." Chen Zhongyuan looked at them with big copper bell-like eyes and said with a smile, "I can't wait to get up and work at twelve hours a day."

"Of course it's different to do it for yourself." Han Qinhu looked at them with raised brows and said, "This is a lot of effort."

"Lady Hong, what did you call me for?" Lin Nanzheng looked at Hong Lianshuo anxiously and said.

"I'll show you something good." Hong Lianshuo pointed to the yellowed thing on the table with his index finger.

"What is this?" Chen Zhongyuan squeezed a little bit, rubbing between his thumb and forefinger, "Can I eat it?"

"Try it." Hong Lianshuo looked at him with crooked eyes and said.

Chen Zhongyuan licked it when he heard the words, looked at her with bright eyes and said, "Salty!"

Lin Nanzheng stammered and shook his hands excitedly, "This is... the salt that has been dried out."

"That's right, dried sea salt." Hong Lianshuo said as he looked at them with dark jade-like eyes.

"You go to the beach these days, so that's what you're busy with." Han Qinhu looked at the salt on the table with brown pupils.

"Yes!" Hong Lianshuo looked at them with a smile on his face and said, "This salt is not bad!"

"It's decent, it's much better than that black salt." Lin Nanzheng squeezed some salt into his mouth, babble, babble, "Salty!"

"It looks good." Han Qinhu looked at Shiyan with amber eyes without blinking.

"Is this easy to dry?" Lin Nanzheng asked worriedly.

"Basking in the sun is easy, but it's hard work under the scorching sun." Hong Lianshuo hesitated and looked at them and said.

"Look at what you said, it's not hard work." Han Qinhu chuckled and said, "It's a serious thing to be able to dry out the salt." His brown pupils shook slightly, "You are worried that no one will come to work is it?"

"They will definitely come. Is this still harder than fishing? It's all wind and sun, and the sea is changing rapidly, so the danger is even greater." Lin Nanzheng stared at her with phoenix eyes and said, "It's much less risky to do things by the sea."

"Okay! Give me a generous reward." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with deep and bright eyes and said.

"Fenghou?" Han Qinhu said in surprise.

"Of course, the profit from salt is huge. It should be generous. It's all hard money." Hong Lianshuo looked at them with bright eyes and said.

"Listen to you." Han Qinhu responded readily.

"Let's go! Let's ride to the beach to see our saltworks." Hong Lianshuo looked at them and said.

The four rode to the beach, "This terrain is very flat!" Han Qinhu said as he walked on the beach while leading his horse.

"The salt field must be built on this barren beach." Hong Lianshuo drew on the beach with a branch, "a certain number of beach pools should be built. This will allow better light to be received and facilitate the completion of the salt drying process."
