Chapter 229

Everyone looked at the backs of the soldiers driving away in the carriage, gradually blurring and disappearing.Everyone just remembered what they were going to do again.

Xu Xiaomi first came to the uncle and said to him: "Uncle! The situation is basically stable now, you should go to the blacksmith shop in Jinquan County, I still need a lot of things.

I'll send it to you after I draw a good picture. I still recommend coming to Xujia Village for the preliminary process of ironmaking.In the past, I discovered that there are many pyrites in Daqing Mountain.

I'll finish my work for a while, and we'll start working on the iron making equipment right away, so you go back and rest first!When you leave, remember to take the two carts of milled rice with you. "

"Good! Good! Good!"

Zhou Jingtian smiled and agreed to what his niece said, and he was willing to do anything for this niece.Now, she let herself go to Jinquan, that would be a blessing!

When he was in Dingzhou, he was still thinking that if it really made him spend half his life in that desolate place in Dingzhou, it would be too boring.

It's not that he dislikes Dingzhou, it's just where it is, although he is also working as a blacksmith.

However, there were only their own family and the garrison in Dingzhou City.I want to earn some money, but it is all my niece's money, which is too boring.

Now it's all right, finally back to the place where I can show my talents.

My niece is really amazing!In the past few months, the house has been built quietly, and two wineries have also been built.

The size of her own family, and that of her three younger brothers, have been eating and drinking her for the past few months, and she never even frowned.

There is an old saying: "Big mouth, small mouth, one bucket a month!" These four families add up, but there are seventy or eighty!In addition, there are more than fifty people in the Wei family!

That's one hundred thirty or forty people!It costs about a hundred catties to eat whole grains every day, right?

If this was an ordinary family, people would have starved to death long ago, not to mention, they would eat meat and drink in big bowls of white rice and noodles.Dream it!

Not to mention that everyone is wearing silk and satin.This ability may be in the whole country in this big week, only Xu Xiaomi can do it!
Therefore, Zhou Jingtian really admires Xu Xiaomi, a niece!

After Xu Xiaomi made an agreement with his uncle Zhou Jingtian, he came to his second uncle Zhou Jingtao and said, "Second uncle, you should rest for a few more days now. After resting, we will start to make boats for sea. Do you want to go to sea? the other side?

I heard that there are endless diamonds, spices that we don't produce in Dazhou, and a lot of gold...

I want you to form a fleet to go overseas to deliver some items that we don't have here.Would you like to go? "

Zhou Jingtao's eyes lit up when he heard what his niece said.

In fact, he has long been longing for the world on the other side of the sea.It's just that no one is willing to take him there, it's much more dangerous than running around on this continent!

Now I hear my niece say that I want to form a fleet by myself, so excited in my heart!It's almost irresistible, let's go to sea!It can be said that it is the dream of every caravan runner.

Unexpectedly, now his dream is about to come true, he is so happy!
He smiled and said, "Really? Then, do we still need sailors?"

It is not easy to form a caravan, and it is even more difficult to form a fleet.

It requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and the cost of building a ship is very high.

The wood needs to be of good quality, and there must be a good carpenter. Not only must the ship be able to sail the sea without any problem, but it must also be able to withstand wind and waves...

well!In short, there are many requirements.

When Xu Xiaomi heard the second uncle's question, she thought it was funny but didn't dare to laugh.This fleet needs not only sailors, but also many ships.

In fact, sailors are easy to find. As long as they are men who live near rivers or lakes for a long time, their water skills are very good.

However, in this big week, it is not easy for a family to own a good boat.

In many cases, several families invested money to buy a boat, so that everyone could change shifts and go fishing.

In this way, people will not be too tired, and the money invested will not be too much, which reduces the pressure.

However, there are also disadvantages, that is, sometimes a family accidentally bumps the boat on the shore or on a hidden reef, and everyone will have some small conflicts because of trivial matters.

Xu Xiaomi thought for a while and replied: "Yes! Sailors are easy to find, but I just want to find some ships so that we don't have to build too many ships ourselves.

However, I believe that it will be difficult to find a ship that is willing to travel with me until we have a stable supply of goods in our fleet.

So, I say let you rest first, and we will start to build the boat after I finish my work.However, if you have time now, you can prepare the wood, and then you can do it when the wood is dry. "

After hearing what his niece said, Zhou Jingtao said excitedly, "Okay! Do your work first, and uncle will listen to you!"

Xu Xiaomi is a big girl now, and these uncles don't call her a girl anymore.

Xu Xiaomi came to the third uncle and said with a smile: "Third uncle, you should take my cousins ​​to manage the lime kilns in three counties! You are the best at this!

In the future, it is possible to expand production, or go to other counties to burn. "

Zhou Jingyu smiled happily after hearing this and said, "Hey! Hehe... Finally, I can work again. These few months have left me in a panic, hehe..."

After hearing this, Xu Xiaomi said with a smile, "Hehe...you should just take it as a trip! Hehe..."

"Travel?" Zhou Jingyu repeated it in confusion when he heard the new words spoken by his niece.

After hearing this, Xu Xiaomi hurriedly explained: "Hehe...that's right, go out to play and walk a little farther."

"Oh! Hehe..." Zhou Jingyu smiled in relief after hearing Xu Xiaomi's explanation.

Xu Xiaomi walked up to the fourth uncle Zhou Jingliang and said with a smile: "Fourth uncle, you and uncle can help me get some new things in the blacksmith's shop. I count on you for the boat I'm going to build!"

Zhou Jingliang smiled and said, "If you need anything, just tell uncle, and I promise to make it for you! Hehe..."

After hearing this, Xu Xiaomi was deeply moved, and said with a smile, "That's good, I might be very busy then."

Zhou Jingliang smiled and said, "Okay! As long as you say it, it's absolutely fine."

At this moment, Xu Xiaomi looked at these relatives who could share the joys and sorrows with her.

He was moved and said loudly: "My relatives, you have worked hard! In a big family like ours, we must unite to make ourselves stronger.

For our bright future, I am willing to give everything for my loved ones.

Now, the third brother-in-law and his family are about to leave us, and I really don't want them to leave.

However, their family has been in the medicinal material business for generations, and we cannot let them abandon their ancestral business, so I can only let them go to their original place.

But if any of you don't want to go, you're more than welcome to stay! "

Wei Zhuang asked with a smile, "Sister Xiaomi, is the Jiaoxiang hot pot restaurant in Jinquan County still open?"

Xu Xiaomi replied with tears in his eyes: "Open! Tomorrow, I will send someone to tidy up the place. The things that need to be added should be added, and the business will resume in a few days!"

Everyone started to shout happily after hearing this!
At this time, Xu Hao and Xu Xiaoting came to her side and asked, "Sister! Sister! What are we going to do?"

Xu Xiaomi thought for a while and said: "Xiaoting should open her own fabric workshop! As for Xu Hao!
Now, the school in Qinglong Town may be short of a teacher!If you don't want to stay at home, how about going to a school to teach? "

Xu Xiaoting listened to her sister and asked her to open her favorite fabric workshop, happily hugging her sister and dancing.

Today's Xu Xiaoting looks like a big girl. At the age of 12, she has a pink face, red lips and white teeth, eyebrows like distant mountains, and eyes with amused eyes.

The 14-year-old Xu Hao is already a beautiful boy, with a bookish atmosphere all over his body. As soon as he goes out, he will become the dream lover of many ladies.

Xu Hao was very happy after hearing her sister's arrangement, and said, "That's good! I'll report tomorrow!"

Xu Xiaomi looked at her younger siblings who had grown up, and remembered the two little buns with sallow complexions, tattered clothes, and milky talk when she first came here.

Eyes became moist unconsciously, Xu Xiaoting looked at it, quickly drew her attention away, and said: "Sister! We almost missed you when we were in Dingzhou, now we can finally be together, you can't leave again Us!"

After Xu Xiaomi heard this, she quickly blinked her eyes and said reproachfully, "You girl, do you think I don't miss you?

After all, you are also a group of people together, right?And I'm here alone, alone, waiting to get everything done and pick you up.

If I didn't want you, how could I have someone repair the house so quickly and bring you back? "

The two sisters were talking about how they missed each other. At this time, the servants of the Wei family had packed up their things and came to Master Wei to ask when they were leaving.
Master Wei came over to say goodbye to Xu Erqiang, Zhou Yuqing, Xu Xiaomi, and everyone, and then led the Wei family to the carriage that Xu Xiaomi had prepared for them in advance.

Wei Zhuang and Zhou Ruoyu came to say goodbye to Xu Erqiang, Zhou Yuqing, Xu Xiaomi and the others, and got into the carriage.

Xu Xiaomi walked over to tell them a few words, and the carriage moved forward slowly amidst the yelling of the coachmen.

At this time, the third aunt hurriedly ran and shouted: "Girl! Help me stop them, I want to go together, your third sister is pregnant!"

After hearing this, Xu Xiaomi rushed to the front carriage and stopped the carriage that was going forward.

The third aunt ran to Zhou Ruoyu's carriage, stepped on the shaft and got on the carriage.

However, now that the third cousin is pregnant, Xu Xiaomi must not just sit idly by.

She also rushed to Zhou Ruoyu's carriage and shouted, "Sister! Brother-in-law! Come out!"
