Huanxi Farm: Pick up a husband for farming

Chapter 191 Fuel
The morning and the sky are clear, when the hazy sun and the moon alternate, the new fog that is awakened by the sound of birds in the empty mountains is startled.

It was time for the mine to start construction, and Junli had already had his breakfast after Rongshui was fully dressed, and he said good morning with a little bit of astringency.

Junli said: "I have never seen you get up so early at the foot of the mountain before, but everything is important, but you can change your habits."

He is right. Rong Shui is indeed more sleep-hungry than before in this era. Although he was not a strict person in modern times, at least he slept healthy. I don’t know why in this era, nothing happened. When I was young, I liked to lie on the bed and covet the warmth of the quilt.

Rong Shui said: "I'm always making fun of you there, I have to go to work soon."

Unexpectedly, when Rong Shui was so thin-skinned, Jun Li laughed, and Rong Shui ran forward like a breeze.

As soon as he arrived at the mine, he was busy refining coke, but before that, Rongshui took the time to ask at the mine supervised by Shanhu.

As soon as Shanhu saw Rongshui, he consciously stepped forward to report the progress of the work. He looked quite dignified and trustworthy.

Said: "Rongshui, the blast furnace has only been intensified in the past few days. We know that you are in a hurry to start production. We specially recruited people from other jobs to speed up the progress as much as possible and wait for the iron smelting!"

Rong Shui was very satisfied with this leader who clearly distinguishes between public and private and can be decisive, and said: "That's good! Let the brothers continue to persevere for a few more days, and the completion of the blast furnace can be completed by more than half!"

Shan Hu nodded solemnly, accepting his orders and doing his best, while Zhao Yu had nothing to do these few days other than observing the sky, so he remembered Rong Shui's instructions and summoned the weak and sick people in the village to teach him how to read , so no one can be seen in the mine during the day.

Rong Shui bid farewell to the mountain tiger, and went to the iron smelting furnace on his own, and continued to be busy with every step of refined refining. This may be the first trial production. The sulfur in the charcoal was not removed enough thoroughly, and the produced iron It seems that there is not much difference from the previous charcoal firing.

At that time, several master craftsmen shook their heads straight after seeing the results of two days of hard work: "Boss Rong, this is not as easy as you think, our people have been such fuel for thousands of years, why are we still going around?" What about looking for better fuel? Isn’t that what it takes to come up with something like that.”

Rongshui knew that she hadn't produced results, and it was useless to refute them. She took the iron made today and compared it with the iron made by the old method, and found that the difference in appearance and texture was indeed not that big, but the iron Do you need to use something to know it?
So instead of arguing with this person, she turned around to find Junli, frowned and said unhappily: "I always don't believe what I say, and I don't bother to reason with them, they are all old-fashioned, you just help I'll try and tell me."

Junli knew that the little girl was also occasionally petty, so he comforted him: "Well, they are old-fashioned, I'm honored, aren't they? Tell me how to try?"

Rong Shui broke his skills in a second, and said with a smile: "You are boasting, so you used your sword to cut off these two pieces of iron, and then told me which piece is harder and harder to split."

Junli agreed, and then pulled out the saber that he carried with him. The sharpness was menacing, and the light showed a chill, and he knew it was a rare and good sword at a glance. as a weapon to be worn with you.

Junli's sword light flashed, as fast as lightning, he slashed twice with his hands, the iron block was split into four pieces like dirt, the blade was sharp enough to see the beauty of a sword.

Naturally, Rongshui's focus was not on his sword body, but picked up the iron block to observe the fracture, although he couldn't see anything for a while.

Jun Li said, "Rong Shui, I think it's almost easy to cut this iron."

Rong Shui was half dizzy, let Junli's sword cut iron, I'm afraid it's like hitting a stone with an egg, how does the stone feel?Which eggshell should be harder is not fully considered, it is ridiculous,

So he replied angrily: "Knowing that your sword is fast, what can you feel? It's just for nothing that you cut it."

Junli buried his head in thought, experienced the tiny feeling of breaking the iron plate just now, and then said: Don't blame me, little girl, my sword is indeed fast, but I recalled it, and found that the iron plate on the left might have been chopped off The resistance encountered is a little bit larger, but it is not a big difference for the sword.

Rong Shui felt happy in his heart, the piece on the left happened to be a piece of iron that had just come out of the oven and cooled, so he opened his eyes and asked: Junli, think about it carefully, is it really the piece on the left?
When Rong Shui asked this question, it wasn't because he didn't tell him that the piece was newly made by himself in order to be safe and not affect Junli's first judgment.

If Junli picked out the iron plate that he had just baked under such circumstances, it would at least mean that the painstaking efforts of the past few days were not in vain.

This time, Jun Li said affirmatively: It is indeed the piece on the left, and it is true that there is a slight resistance when cutting it down with the sword.

Rong Shui was relieved now, and he still believed in Junli's judgment, so he took the two iron plates and ran to the iron furnace to figure out where the problem was.

After this thought and repeated experiments, I poured charcoal for a while, watched the furnace burn iron for a while, and checked the fried steel for a while, and it was very busy.

Jun Li also allowed her to spin around happily, for what she wanted to accomplish.

Let's say that Fang Rongming returned to the Rong family with the brothers and sisters of the Fu family. Before that, he had sent people home to report, but the family members were shocked when they suddenly brought back two living people.

Looking at the two poorly dressed brothers and sisters, Mrs. Li couldn't help sighing, and said from the moment they came in: "What's wrong with these two children? It's so cold, and I don't want to add any thick underwear. Rong Wan give them some."

Rong Ming said: "My two friends also ran around for a period of time when there was an accident at home. Naturally, they didn't take good care of them. But now they are brought to stay at home temporarily. Naturally, they have to ask the whole family to take good care of them."

Mrs. Li nodded and said: "That's natural, and it's also a sin. Such young brothers and sisters have to take care of this. Come into the house and I will prepare it for you; use some small things first, and have a good meal at lunch later." .”

Fu Chen'er and Fu Chengbi didn't open their mouths, but listening to the conversation between Rong Ming and Li Shi, they were moved and grateful. Fu Chen'er thought that there was no reason to live in someone else's house, even if Rong Ming tried his best to invite them to be his family members. I won't have a very good face, but now it is such a situation, I feel a little relieved,

But I have lived in no fixed place for a long time, and I am used to seeing the warmth and coldness of people in my heart. I immediately reminded myself to cheer up. There is no such a good-hearted family in the world. I am afraid that I can only show kindness if I stay with my brother for a few more days. Put on a face.

Fu Chengbi was not as sensitive and suspicious as his younger sister. He felt too deep in his heart, but he couldn't express it in words. He just said to Li Shi: "Thanks to the kindness of helping you and helping you, Mr. Ling, I can't repay you now, and I can't be kind." Face stays for a long time, once you have a place to go, you will stop bothering me."

Mrs. Li said: "Why bother to say these polite words? Our Rong family has been warm-hearted from the beginning, since Shui'er and Rong Ming rescued you and invited you to stay here, you don't have to think so much, just stay here with peace of mind."

After finishing speaking, she said to the two lonely and helpless brothers and sisters who had just arrived with a kind mother and a pleasant face: "Don't think that my Rong family is blessed with many children. They didn't touch the ground, and they didn't see anyone after dinner. Rong Ming took care of the fried chicken shop's accounts and did the daily calculations. Younger sister Rong is still locked in the door every day, not knowing what she is complaining about, and there is also a student who is hard to see."

After speaking, it turned out to be the complaint of a widowed old man, Rong Ming hurriedly comforted Mrs. Li and said, "Mother is blaming us brothers and sisters for not being with you well. If you do it alone, it won't be a son and daughter marrying each other by then."

Mrs. Li just complained along the way. In fact, the children are at home, and it is not too difficult to say a few words when they meet each other, but they are venting.

Afraid that the Fu brothers and sisters would be left out in the cold, Rong Ming said again: "Don't expect Shen'er and Cheng Bi to accompany you, these two are not only my second sister's and I's friends, but also the stewards we hired for the fried chicken shop. What! I'm afraid my mother won't be able to count on the important things, and when the errands are handed over, I should first rent a house for the two to live in. Right now, I can only squeeze."

Fu Chengbi quickly said: "Young Master Rong is generous and generous, and he treats my brother and sister with care. Cheng Bi is willing to do his best to learn the chores in the shop and share the worries of the Rong family."

Mrs. Li kept saying that there is no need to be too polite, so she took the two brothers and sisters to live in their respective rooms, saying that it was a squeeze, but it was just modesty. Although the Rong family is not big, Rongshui planned the layout reasonably when it was being renovated. Several courtyards will not occupy too much original space, so there is no need to worry about the large number of guest rooms.

As soon as Fu Chen'er walked into the room, she was overjoyed. For several years of wandering, how long has it been since she saw a tidy bed, a clean table and a cloth?The room is well-furnished, the light is pleasing, and there is a touch of incense that the girl likes. It can't be said to be magnificent, but it is also delightful to be unique and thoughtful.

Fu Chen'er put her only package on the table, and ran to the bed to caress it like a child, wanting to go back to the life of a long, long time ago, feeling very sad.

Rong Shui didn't know that Rong Ming had made his own decisions, and Fu Chengbi who had been recruited and arranged to stay at home temporarily. Her form in the mine was also exciting. After another whole day of improvement and repeated repetitions, Madam The trial temperature finally extracts the sulfur from the charcoal, and the remaining coke has been formed.

The master craftsman took the coke successfully smelted by Rongshui and said strangely: "Boss Rong said that this thing can be smelted into harder iron?"

Rong Shui nodded confidently, and said to them: "You just use it to smelt iron. The things I made by myself will not be useless. It's too late today, so I went down the mountain. You can come back tomorrow. I’ll know when I refine a batch! When the time comes, ask someone to take out the finished product and go down the mountain!”

After finishing speaking, he clapped his hands and said, "Everyone call it a day!"
