Villager of Daming

Chapter 1253: Enjoy Life Elsewhere

Gegehaji was fascinated by what she heard. She liked reading books, especially those involving technology.

She used her connections to get books from department stores and soldiers who came into the village, and she memorized them all.

She knew that she had a good memory. Even though it was not as good as some people who could read ten lines at a glance and remember everything they saw, it was still much better than other ordinary people.

Unfortunately, most of the books she had access to were of little use in life. The best books were about planting, breeding, and life tips.

Before, she felt that there was a door in front of her, but now she found that the city wall had been kicked down. No, it's in the way!

Nahachu was also listening, and he looked at Zhu Ying with an extra sense of amazement.

When he met Zhu Ying before, he admitted that the girl was good-looking, especially her fair and tender skin!
Looking at her figure again, it is equally attractive.

Then came a special feeling, as if the equally beautiful girl was inferior to Zhu Ying, but he couldn't tell how.

Because he didn't know there was such a thing as temperament, the temperament that comes from being well-read and elegant.

Now it has changed again. She actually knows more than her sister. If she takes a concubine, in the future...

Thinking about this, he couldn't help but ask Zhu Chong, "Your Highness, Prince of Qin, has this girl been betrothed to anyone?"

Zhu Xi: "..."

His younger brothers Zhu Gang, Zhu Di, and Zhu Su: "..."

Xu Da, Zhao Yao, Liu Sheng: "..."

The head of the village didn't say anything. It was impossible anyway. Let alone giving you a marquisate, what would it matter if you were a duke?

Look at the princes, even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, are they noble? Can they find a woman in Xiaqiu Village?
"Don't even think about it, Governor Nahachu. We can't do it."

The fifth brother, Zhu Su, was kinder and dissuaded the other party from having any inappropriate thoughts in advance, thus preventing the other party from being beheaded before he became a marquis.

Prince of Jin Zhu Gang followed up and said, "If we princes were still here, if we could really give her to a concubine, we would have done it long ago. How can it be your turn?"

He was telling the truth. His future father-in-law didn't care about his own daughter and was thinking of finding him a girl from Xiaqiu Village, such as Ling'er.

How many fathers-in-law are so open-minded? Aren't they afraid that if they take another concubine, their daughter's status will be ruined?
"You have to get married eventually, right?" Nahachu didn't understand. He looked at Zhu Ying, a good woman who was already of marriageable age.

"Zuixu, recruiting a live-in son-in-law. The baby can take the man's surname, but the man must be monitored and not allowed to leave Xiaqiu Village.

One could serve as an official in the imperial court only in the imperial city, or in Jiangning County and Shangyuan County of Yingtian Prefecture.

I have to go home every day. If I want to stay overnight outside, I will lose my life. There is no other way. I know too much.

As for the relationship between the couple being incompatible, if the man wants to divorce, then he can do so, but after the divorce, it’s over, life is over.”

This was said by Zhu Di. He actually wanted to find one, and thought his father-in-law would support him.

"Oh! Will this well be left to someone else? Chief Zhu, I guess these pipes are not easy to build, right?"

Nahachu changed the subject very abruptly. He realized that the person he liked had already been liked by others, but he couldn't get it.

"Sir Nahachu, the sealing requirements for this tube are not very high. It is much worse than that for a gun barrel. The gun barrel has the highest requirements and must be seamless.

This type of iron pipe and steel pipe is more used in daily life.

The best steel pipes are not made by hammering, but by drilling, for example..."

The village head will not make things difficult for Nahachu. He has finally become one of ours, which makes it much easier for us!
Let me talk about some of the situations, including weapon-grade steel pipes and steel pipes for civilian use, such as tap water, and sewage! No steel pipes are used.

Steel pipes are too thick and heavy, and are more prone to problems. The manufacturing process is complicated and has not been done yet, otherwise cannons would have been made long ago. The head of the village talked about the water supply and drainage systems in the imperial city. The pipes for water supply are iron pipes, but the drainage is not.

The inside of the sewer is concrete, the cement is smoothed, and the connecting pipes are made of bamboo, old bamboo, which is partially carbonized.

That is, carbonize a layer and then soak it in oil, so that it is strong and not afraid of corrosion.

In addition to electric lights and other equipment, like electric fans, the difficulty of manufacturing them depends on the precision that needs to be achieved. We do not pursue more functions, it is just an electric motor.

In fact, hot air can also be blown. A resistor tube and a fan at the back, isn't that just blowing hot air?
It's just that it wasn't done. The heating is more stable. The hot air from the resistance tube is easy to catch fire. At the same time, the hot air is too dry. Do you add a basin of water in front?
"Once everyone is settled, the same arrangement will be made at the governor's house!"

The head of the village talked about a lot of conveniences in life, and finally made a promise to Naha: I'll give it to you, and you can enjoy it too, don't worry, as long as you don't cause any trouble.

"Okay, okay, okay!" Nahachu's heart was already flying, he wanted to use the phone.

Running water, sewerage, upstairs and downstairs, electricity, telephone, heating, fans...

I simply couldn't imagine it. Twelve hours of hot water, and the head of the village also said he would give me a watch, the kind worth one hundred thousand strings of cash, at least that expensive when sold to the barbarians.

……

"This well has water coming out of it, come and see!"

Just when Nahachu was enjoying the moment, another voice came.

Without him mentioning it, everyone would naturally go there to see it. It is cooler at night, which is perfect for a stroll.

As for where the wounded and sick soldiers are, we will not go.

It’s not that I don’t care, but during this period of time, everyone is resting. If you are lying in the hospital bed and suddenly a group of people come, should you get up or not?

Including those who are making moaning noises as required to relieve body pain and relax, do they have to endure it?

More importantly, how did the wounded appear? After Naha went there, he couldn't say that he was avenging someone, right?
He is the biggest leader of his team. Doesn't the leader know what the situation is?
But I just don't go. If I go, everyone will be embarrassed, unless some small leaders in this place are disobedient.

Just go over and take a look, and then take care of the little leader.

Just like the magistrate and the chief clerk, these two people are both colleagues of the magistrate.

The prefect was sent directly by the imperial court to work in the local area, and the entire place was controlled by the co-prefect.

If the prefect wants to do something, he must get the permission of the co-prefect. Otherwise, the co-prefect will not speak up and the people below will not listen to the prefect.

At this time, the prefect will go down to inspect and then deal with the people. Aren't you the co-prefect's men? See if the co-prefect can protect you? We are specially appointed by His Majesty!

After checking one by one, I will report to His Majesty and tell him about the situation here.

When others saw it, it was over!
Hurry up! The new prefect is more powerful than the co-prefect, so he surrenders to the prefect. The prefect turns around and suppresses the co-prefect. And because the co-prefect has deep roots in the local area and affects the government's policies, the co-prefect is also dealt with.

There is no such situation with Nahachu. Others have to listen to whatever he says. How can there be a court?
So after forgetting some things, happiness will come to you.

Sure enough, another well was dug here, and the pump kept pumping out the turbid water.

"What's the matter? Speak! Speak loudly!" Nahachu, who was watching the well, found the messenger coming and standing there, wanting to say something but stopping. He gave the order.

"Report! There's news over there. They say they were caught up by people from Taiyuan Prefecture and wanted to hide here. This is the news from behind."

The messenger originally wanted to speak in private, but since the prefect asked him to, he might as well say it!
