Villager of Daming

Chapter 622: Leisure and Questioning

At noon that day, the officials received the lunch boxes, and Zhu Yuanzhang ran away with the harem people to Xiaqiu Village.

He wanted to chat, chat with his two former sons and the village chief, and ask about what happened along the way, even if all the news came back.

The people who came back yesterday did not go out this morning, did not eat breakfast, and slept all the time. They were tired.

They need to take care of others, not be taken care of. Now relax, even Zhu Wentian is fast asleep.

Others eat normally, including stir-fried vegetables, stews, steamed vegetables...

Staple food noodles, rice noodles, steamed buns, rice, bean rice...

Zhu Xiongying showed off in front of his father. He used two kinds of tableware to eat and used his hands. Zhu Biao praised him so much that the baby choked with laughter.

After he was full, Zhu Xiongying took the initiative to take a nap with the children of similar age in Xiaqiu Village, which was like a nursery.

The responsibilities of nurseries are higher than those of kindergartens. Children can go to nurseries from birth. Kindergartens do not admit children under one and a half years old!

Sometimes kindergartens for children under three years old are unwilling to accept them and it is difficult to manage them.

The people involved in the management of the nursery in Xiaqiu Village are naturally women with experience in raising children. They have also gone through systematic study and need to take good care of every baby like a mother.

……

"Yichang, how can we thank you?" Zhu Yuanzhang did not eat normal meals, he wanted to drink, and would not go to work in the afternoon. He was happy today and got the imperial seal.

Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow plus the day after tomorrow will be a three-day holiday and a national amnesty. Officials who have just been arrested for mining are not exempt from this exception. Their families can.

The main purpose is to promote the good eldest son, and give all the credit to the prince, so that the prince can win the hearts of the people.

"This... Your Majesty... the common people..."

"We are thanking you as fathers. Zhu Biao and Zhu Feng are the fathers of them, not your Majesty." Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.

The manager looked at Hanhan and secretly gave him a thumbs up, "That's great, Hanhan, it's all settled."

Normally, he should use these words to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang to maintain the dignity of the emperor and that etiquette issues should not be overcome.

Hanhan gave a different opinion, so he smiled: "Thank you! I have to thank you. I want to thank Brother Zhu for teaching me a good son."

"Oh?" Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned. He was also waiting for the other party to speak in terms of etiquette. How about this...

"Biao'er and Ping'er encountered many difficult things along the way, but they were not afraid of hardship, tired, difficult, or difficult.

We have told the children in the village more than once that despite their young age, they are really like their fathers.

Without the persistence of your two children, our team would not be able to reach Helin. This is the most important thing.

The key is that they always like to give credit and benefits to others.

The two of them were the first to endure hardships, fight first, and never let others down in their struggle. In this way, wherever our team has gone, the people have praised it.

Brother Zhu!What kind of tutor do you think you are?Why can such children be taught? "

According to the Hanhan teaching, the headmaster said that when praising other people's children, don't praise them for their good looks or wealth, but mention their tutoring and moral character.

Because some people may not be good-looking, they are born with it, there is nothing they can do about it, and some families don’t have much money.

"No, no, normal teaching, it's our girl's hard work." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and narrowed his eyes.

Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi: "..."

The two of them looked at each other and realized that something was wrong. The chief had been teaching various things along the way to encourage the two of them.

Queen Ma nodded there. In the entire harem, she was the only one who could have contact with outsiders, including ministers, and no one dared to treat her like a female prostitute.

"The eldest brother and the second child, please learn more from the people in Xiaqiu Village from now on. Chief Zhu Li is not suitable to be an official, so we will not let Chongba become an official." After Empress Ma said to her two sons, she spoke to the chief again.

"It's true that you can't be an official. Being a liangzhu is just a stumbling block." The liangzhang said calmly.

"Hanhan, we saw you blew up a bunch of them, why don't you bring them up!"

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to drink and eat skewers, and Hanhan was in charge of frying skewers.

There are no kebabs today, they are small fried kebabs for people to drink slowly. The kebabs are big and you will be full after eating a few kebabs.

I probably had to drink until the evening, mainly chatting, and there were various dried fruits placed there.

Wait until the end of the meal, then eat a staple food to replenish carbohydrates. Eating now is to keep your mouth occupied.

There was no singing or dancing today. The other harem women had put their children to sleep and then chatted with the women from Xiaqiu Village.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked about the situation along the way, occasionally interjecting, and kept asking until the time when he returned from Peiping Province.

"It took you four days to walk from the canal? Normally, Lao Tang and the others are actually faster. The reason for being so anxious is..."

Zhu Yuanzhang had nothing to say about speed. Tang and the others ran as fast as they could to get faster than Zhu Biao's fleet.

Zhu Biao and Zhu Fang looked at the chief, we don't understand what you are asking for, but we just need to cooperate with you anyway.

"The village plans to build several combine harvesters, driven by crawler steam engines. No one is needed to harvest. The machines are sent there. Interplanting cannot be harvested. Rice and wheat can be harvested alone."

The head of the farm said the idea given by Hanhan. With a combine harvester, you don’t have to worry about anything. The machine goes into the field and harvests everything. Even the straw is laid out for you.

Zhu Wentian naturally designed it according to normal conditions. The first combine harvester was horse-drawn!Later, the steam engine came along.

With the steam engine application technology currently displayed, the combine harvester will be fine.

That would save a lot of manpower, and later there would be steam engine plows and planters.

The only pity is that there is no internal combustion engine, which requires too much technology.

That is to say, the steam engine in history actually led the way for the internal combustion engine. With the advent of rubber, the development of the steam engine was late.

The era of the steam engine was particularly short-lived, referring to steam engine automobiles, agricultural machinery, etc., which were replaced by internal combustion engines.

Ships, trains, and steam engines can still be preserved for a long time.

At present, he does not have the manufacturing technology for internal combustion engines, so Zhu Wentian settles for the next best thing. Just use a steam engine!

When the Panama Canal was being built, steam engine excavators were working hard.

Yes!The excavators of that era were steam-powered, just like the excavators built in Helin.

There are even bulldozers, track lifts, and steam engines that provide power, and other aspects are part of the design.

The current Ming Dynasty looks very complicated, but for some people who are proficient in circuit and chip design, things like this are just toys.

Isn’t it just those transmission systems?What else?The considerations are structural issues and material strength. If it doesn't work, just change the combination.

That's right, just change it, no one will come to collect the patent, just use whatever is easy to use.

The director has never seen the real thing, so he can only describe it now.

"Steel, copper, lead, felt, coal, and water can allow one big guy to plant the land instead of many people and livestock? Can he also reclaim wasteland?"

Zhu Yuanzhang ate half of the fried stuffed skewers and understood, but couldn't believe it.
