Villager of Daming

Chapter 1214 Independent Houses Have Hidden Dangers

Tu Yajie is not a gourmet, but he is also willing to be a food lover, such as when someone makes food for him.

If he hadn't seen that the other people in the team were led by Zhu Fugui, he would have easily mistaken them for cooks.

According to the Northeastern people's concept, there are only two main dishes among the eight dishes, one is braised frog, the other is stewed pheasant with mushrooms, and the others are all side dishes.

In the eyes of those in the tribe who were qualified to participate, every dish on the table was delicious, including the pickled vegetables, and the fried sauce had no foul smell.

That was the result of Zhu Fugui selecting the medicinal herbs that the tribe was going to sell to the department store, taking out the ones that could be used, and having someone grind them into powder and put them into the stir-fried sauce.

He didn't say anything about the sweet noodle sauce. It was given to him by Liu Sheng. It was sold in department stores. It was from Jubi Qidiao in Yingtianfu.

You can be doubtful about things offered by other places, but there is absolutely no problem with Ju Bi Qi.

Ju Bi Qi was managed by Qin Wang Zhu Chong, and the factory behind it was managed by Xiaqiao Village. He knew what was going on with his own business.

So everyone ate for more than two hours, almost three hours, chatting as they ate.

Zhu Fugui introduced the current situation of the Ming Dynasty to them, picking out the good things to say.

How much raw materials can the Maanshan Iron Mine provide to the steel mill every day, and what is the approximate output of the steel mill...

The development of the animal husbandry industry, the improvement of the planting industry, the deployment and dispersion of steam engines in various places...

Especially salt. Good salt, including the shipping cost, can be bought for three cents per pound, which is very cheap. The salt used is the beach drying method.

After the meal, everyone controlled their food intake and did not drink too much, for fear of disrupting their work.

After dinner, everyone strolled around. Zhu Fugui wanted to take a look first and wait for the main force to come so that he could report and save everyone's time.

There were other people accompanying us, but there was no one to give explanations, that is, the leaders were inspecting, but there was a lack of professional tour guides.

Fortunately, Zhu Fugui doesn’t need it because he is more professional.

"Just wait for my Yuan army to come and sweep you away, and take you all as slaves.

Our Yuan Dynasty's master Dong Nuraji is in charge of the overall plan. You don't know how powerful he is.

You will regret it, you'd better let me go, I will go back and speak well of you, and the cowherd boy is not a legitimate so-called emperor, you are finished..."

Everyone was walking on the dirt road. There was no cement road or stone slabs here. It was just a normal dirt road, but there were some yellow sand piled up at intervals on the roadside.

When the road is muddy on rainy days, you can spread some yellow sand or ash, but there are few people using stove grates here, so coal cannot be burned. We still have to use a large earthen stove and burn firewood.

The stove with a grate is a small stove and cannot hold a large pot, but it can be connected to a chimney and have a fire path like a kang.

Therefore, it is of little use to spread wood ash on the road. It is usually used as fertilizer or as pesticide after being soaked in water.

As we passed by a solitary hut, we heard cursing coming from inside.

"This noise sounds familiar. Who is that person who passed away? The remnant of the Northern Yuan Dynasty?"

Zhu Fugui listened to the other party's shouting and asked as if recalling the past.

"You are going to die! I am Dehabusi. I tell you, you are finished. You ran here and provoked us. Donuraji will not let you go.

Donulaji was able to plan and strategize in detail and win the battle from thousands of miles away.

You will know how powerful I am. If you surrender now and are willing to submit to the Yuan Dynasty, I can plead for you..."

Dehabusi who was imprisoned inside continued to shout, "Give it up! How dare you provoke others at this time?"

"General Zhu, don't be angry. He was captured and wanted to die. He was afraid of being tortured, so he shouted like that on purpose!"

The leader of an allied tribe nearby comforted Zhu Fugui for fear of delaying important matters.

"I'm not a general. I... The weather is hot and people are restless. I can understand the feelings of the people inside. Do you have the ash from the coal stove? Wood ash will do, too. Bring it here. It needs to be dry.

Because it's not only hot, but also humid. Use them to absorb moisture, otherwise the people inside will keep sweating and feel uncomfortable! "

Zhu Fugui had a calm face and spoke with concern for others.

"Yes, yes, there are some at the blacksmith's place. It's hard to get the grate elsewhere. Blacksmiths need high temperature, yes, high temperature.

There is a lot of slag there. Come on, go and get it. General Zhu of the Ming Dynasty does not want the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty to suffer.

See? This is the difference. Even if they are enemies, we will capture them and take care of them.”

Another leader of an allied tribe spoke and made arrangements, praising the people of the Ming Dynasty and belittling those of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

"You don't need to pretend to be merciful. If you are afraid, please ask me to leave immediately, otherwise you can just wait for our army to surround you..."

Dehabusi in the house continued to shout, giving people a tough look, refusing to compromise and counter-threatening!

It wasn't long before the goods were delivered. Slag, wood ash, and slaked lime. Quicklime was especially difficult to preserve and easily affected by moisture. Otherwise, a large amount of quicklime could be provided.

"Okay! Spread it around the house." Zhu Fugui ordered.

He ignored the scolding inside and could endure it.

Once it’s laid, at least it gives people the feeling that it’s dehumidified.

Zhu Fugui frowned, "Oh! Is it too dry? Quick! Pour some water on it, so that he won't be so dry inside. Let's go somewhere else."

"Splash~~Splash~~" Basins of water were poured on the things that had just been laid out, and the team left.

At this time, water vapor begins to enter the house through the gaps in the wooden boards of the house, and the temperature rises sharply.

Quicklime is as hot as water when in contact with it, as are wood ash and slag.

If the surface temperature could reach 40 degrees before, 70 degrees is no problem now, and the water vapor is even higher.

People in the house are enjoying a sauna. If there is a basin of cold well water and Dehabusi is given a towel, he can dip the towel in the cold water and cover his mouth and nose to breathe, which can be used as steam for health preservation.

Unfortunately, he had no cold water, so he was enduring the hot, humid, and stuffy sauna feelings.

When people from other tribes looked at Zhu Fugui, their expressions were complicated.

At least they understand that this person is bad! If there is a grudge, it will be avenged immediately without delay.

Zhu Fugui had no sympathy for others. He wondered, "Chief Tu Yajie, what is that single room in the house used for?"

He couldn't figure out why there was a house at that location. It was wrong to say it was a sentry post, and it was even more wrong to say it was a warehouse. The house was small, and a single room could be used as a warehouse?

The key point is that the surrounding area is all flat land with nothing planted. Could it be that it is really used to detain people?

“General Zhu, there were many houses there before, and the heavy rain washed down and damaged other houses.

It's no longer habitable, and we don't have the time to tear it down, so we've left it there since last year.

This year, it is not visible anymore. Otherwise, if there are traces, who would dare to build a house there? What if it breaks out again? "

Tu Yajie naturally understood the situation. It was his territory, so he would leave the house there for now and wait and see when it collapsed.

“It seems that we need to see if there are any problems such as mudslides and landslides, which are actually very easy to solve.

If there is a mountain behind, you can plant crops on the mountain... No, you need to open up fields to drain water.

I need to know the condition of the soil. Uh... I will ask about it once the team arrives. Once it is treated, it will be a good piece of land."

Zhu Fugui thought of many situations in an instant, but he was not sure, so he decided to ask Hanhan!
