Pirate Song

Chapter 54 Crouching Tiger Village

Gao Huaiyuan sorted out his thoughts. Although he is not very familiar with this period of history, he still knows a little bit. If this situation continues, the fate of the Kingdom of Jin and Xixia will naturally be destroyed. How much time will be left for him?

A sense of urgency arose spontaneously, and Gao Huaiyuan felt that it was time to speed up the progress!So after thinking about it for a while, considering that the things in the old house have basically been sorted out, Xue Yan was asked to stay in the old house to take care of the things in the old house, and he brought Liu'er and rushed back to the villa On the other side, start busy with things over there!

The winter in the south of the Yangtze River is relatively short. With the warm wind blowing, just after the Spring Festival, it is full of spring scenery. The mountains and fields are full of birdsong and flowers. On the way to the villa, you can see the quiet mountains and forests. The dense bamboo forest is green and tall. , the surroundings are quiet and can only hear the birdsong in the empty valley, and the mood that has been dormant for the winter suddenly has a hint of germination. The winter jasmine flowers all over the mountains and plains are spread all the way like a big bright yellow carpet, and the mood becomes active again with the yellow color.

This kind of scenery made Gao Huaiyuan feel much better. Now that we have come to this era, it is futile to be blindly nervous. All we need to do is to do it, and there is nothing to regret later. Although the Song Dynasty may eventually be destroyed under the iron hoof of Mongolia , but after all, there is still some time. If he has been immersed in this kind of worry, he will no longer be able to enjoy this life. Wouldn't it be a waste of time?

After figuring this out, Gao Huaiyuan let go of the uneasiness in his heart, and sang boldly and casually: "The sea laughs, the tides on both sides of the bank, the ups and downs follow the waves and only remember the present..."

This was the first time for Liu Er to hear Gao Huaiyuan sing, so she stretched her head out of the car and listened carefully. Gao Huaiyuan sang this song in Cantonese habitually. She couldn't understand the lyrics clearly, but for this But I liked the tune very much, it was fresh and pleasant, so I hummed it softly along with Gao Huaiyuan.

The villa is still full of excitement. From the foot of the mountain, surrounded by green trees, it is really a wonderful thing. Gao Huaiyuan is really grateful to Gao Laogen for having such a good place to stay here. If it weren't for this guy, how could he have such a clean place to stand on?Poor Gao Laogen, I don't know where he is now, what kind of life he is living, but Gao Huaiyuan will not miss him right now.

Since Gao Huaiyuan came to live in the villa, the construction speed here has been accelerated. In addition, Gao Huaiyuan has relatively abundant financial support. The Zhuangzi, which was originally expected to be completed in three months, unexpectedly took two months. finished.

Standing in the newly built houses, smelling the lime smeared on the walls, all the young men were happy. Although it was hard work during this period, they saw that the houses were finally built with their help. After the completion, everyone has a strong sense of belonging to this place, and it will be the home of these orphans from now on!

Gao Huaiyuan is generally satisfied with the construction quality of these houses, but he just feels that the walls made of plaster are not as strong as cement, but how can there be such a thing as cement in this era!He can only make do with it!But in my heart, I was thinking about whether the next step is to burn some cement if I see a big project somewhere?Anyway, the technological content of this thing is not too high, and the raw materials are even more readily available. If it is really used, it is also a way to make money.

After paying off the wages of these craftsmen and tenants, these people quickly tidied up the yard, thanked Gao Huaiyuan for his generous reward happily, and left the villa. The inside of the villa was immediately clean.

Looking at the tall fence, Gao Huaiyuan and the people here like it very much. If you want to see the situation inside from the outside, it is basically impossible now. Looking at the empty lintel, Huang Yan suddenly looked at Gao Huaiyuan. Huaiyuan said: "I'm talking about boss! Our place is considered a mountain village! Without a name, I always feel that it is not majestic enough. I can't just call it Gaojiazhuang. That is too vulgar! Otherwise, you can call our place a name. Prestige name! How about letting everyone remember our name in the future?"

Even Zhou Hao, who is not talkative on weekdays, nodded his head again and again: "That's right! Brother, why don't you give us a famous name!"

Gao Huaiyuan felt that there was nothing wrong with what they said. If he wanted the people here to have a real sense of belonging in the future, it would be good to have a famous name, so he thought about it for a while and immediately said: "Since you said so , then our place will be called Crouching Tiger Villa from now on!"

Immediately after everyone heard this, there was a burst of cheers. Gao Huaiyuan specially got a bunch of firecrackers, hung them on the door and lit them, and there was a burst of crackling. among.

Although the house was still a little damp, these teenagers didn't care about it, and immediately moved to the new house at the back, tidying up and cleaning up.

After Gao Huaiyuan watched them tidy up the room, he nodded in satisfaction. This is a bit like a barracks. It seems that during this period of time, the newcomers who came over these years have also adapted to life here. The awareness of obedience has long been ingrained. Although they are still teenagers, Gao Huaiyuan believes that as long as he takes time, he will be able to train these guys into a group of fighters who can fight well.

In the following days, the life here in the villa returned to its previous appearance again. He heard the rooster crowing for the first time in the morning, and immediately got up and lined up for exercises to carry out daily physical strengthening training. At the same time, these teenagers had to accept some simple exercises. In the past, Huang Yan and Zhou Hao were responsible for teaching them the practical training of fists, feet and weapons. Now that Gao Huaiyuan came, he replaced the two of them and took charge of this matter himself.

This group of teenagers really know how powerful Gao Huaiyuan is. They do exercises every day. They all wear light clothes and run with Gao Huaiyuan. Huaiyuan has to put on a suit filled with iron sand every day and run like them. Even Huang Yan and Zhou Hao also wear sandbags and go out for exercises together. These teenagers are completely speechless!

In the past, they sometimes complained about this kind of running in their hearts, but Gao Huaiyuan told them that running should not be underestimated. Persistence is a good exercise for perseverance, and it can also greatly strengthen their physique. So after getting used to it, these people will feel awkward if they don't run for a day. In this way, their bodies will also become stronger. many.

After the exercise training, it was breakfast. After eating, under Gao Huaiyuan's command, everyone was busy in the backyard workshop, packing up all kinds of things, and preparing for the soap workshop to be put into production. Gao Huaiyuan only let the teenagers participate in this kind of thing. The other servants inside are not allowed to enter the backyard, just to keep it secret, only these teenagers are the ones he can trust.

In addition, Gao Huaiyuan continued to insist on making these teenagers literacy, and continued to teach them by Zhou Jun. He also personally served as a math teacher, teaching these teenagers Arabic numerals and common counting methods. With his ability, he taught this thing That's something that can be easily grasped. Anyway, you don't need to teach advanced skills. You just need to know addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. After these young people mature, even if they are not suitable for soldiers, they can handle some accounts and other things for them.

The bows and arrows that Xing Tutou sent to them before finally began to play a role after these young people received strict training. Generally speaking, the bows of the Song Dynasty are divided into three classes, and the strongest is generally Jiudou Huanghua Bows, the weaker ones are the eight-dou bow, and the last one is the seven-dou hemp back bow. As for the two-stone strong bow used by Gao Huaiyuan, it is definitely a non-standard weapon. It is a super abnormal guy and cannot be regarded as a normal range. !You must know that even the most powerful god arm crossbow equipped in the army of the Song Dynasty was only a two-stone crossbow. Use common sense to measure!

What Xing Butou sent to them was exactly this kind of seven-dou hemp back bow, which just made up for the lack of strength of these young people and enabled them to practice archery.

For this reason, Gao Huaiyuan set aside a special place behind the villa and set up archery targets and other objects for these youngsters to practice archery. In this regard, Gao Huaiyuan is also the best among Huang Yan and Zhou Hao, so he must do his part. Still guided by him himself.

The teenagers only have the opportunity to practice archery in the backyard if they can draw the seven-double bow, so it has become a symbol of honor among them. Whoever said that archers are weak in the army, Gao Huaiyuan did not believe this Evil, it is to elevate the status of archers. From what he said, archers are the strong ones who dominate the battlefield, and only fools act as cannon fodder in front!So it immediately aroused the enthusiasm of these guys to practice shooting.

During this period, Gao Huaiyuan kept leaving the villa, went to Daye County or the surrounding Yangxin County to purchase raw materials from various places, but he was a little depressed about buying salt. Xu Guan's government operates table salt, but in the era of the Southern Song Dynasty, the quality of official salt was high and the price was high. If you bought it back, you had to boil it again and re-purify it, which wasted a lot of time and energy. Fortunately, Xue Yan had been on the road before, so he knew There was a place to buy high-quality private salt, so Gao Huaiyuan immediately asked Xue Yan to buy a batch of private salt, which was transferred to Crouching Tiger Manor in batches for storage, and the rest was to purchase grass alkali or soil alkali. I also contacted many butchers and sent a piece of fat to Crouching Tiger Village regularly.

After such a toss for a while, everything was arranged properly, and the only thing left was to start work on another day!
