Tu Shanyue looked at Yang Fan who was approaching with a smile.
She and Yang Fan were in the honeymoon stage, and they couldn't leave their husband for a moment, and wished they could be together every day.
Tu Shanyue took off Yang Fan's cloak with her own hands, and took a hot towel from the maid's hand to wipe Yang Fan's face. Yang Fan looked up in enjoyment, feeling that it was good to have a wife.
Yang Fan's family boarded a relatively well-decorated passenger ship.
Everyone else gets on the cargo ship.
Five thousand people, plus livestock and baggage, have prepared hundreds of boats. Now the river has opened inland. We can go down the river from Zhangjiawan to Ji County and turn around and enter the Ji Canal. We will arrive at Zun before dark tomorrow.
melted.
While it was still dark, the fleet weighed anchor and set sail.
The small house in Zunhua Iron Works can no longer accommodate so many people.
Yang Fan was sitting cross-legged in the living room of the cabin, feeling a little uncomfortable seeing the sudden increase in so many women at home.
Yesterday I was single, but suddenly I had a group of wives and concubines, including many maids and so on.
It made him feel a little dazed.
Alas! As the saying goes, if you are poor, you will be alone, but if you are rich, you will have many wives and concubines.
The ancient people will never deceive me.
Next to her sits the young lady Pi Tu Shanyue, behind her is Mei Xiang, and in the distance are the maids. On the left are Lin Yueru, Xiaoyu and Xiaohong. On the right are sisters Xiangyi.
They are all beautiful girls who are eye-catching, and they are all my own.
I feel so satisfied.
The mood is beautiful.
Yang Fan stretched himself. After a day of marching, he followed the soldiers in order to feel the physical strength of the soldiers. He was really tired.
"The new house is ready." Yang Fan asked.
You have to have a place to live when you go back. The iron factory is too shabby, so I won’t go back.
Xiang Yi leaned forward and said: "Master, everything is ready. We bought it from a cloth merchant's yard in Zunhua. Their family is from the south and has returned to the south. We bought the house. Although it only has two entrances, it has
There are three courtyards across the east, west, north and west. There are 200 rooms, which is enough for our whole family."
Yang Fan nodded and let the meal begin.
Aunt Mei directed the maids to put the two small Kang tables together.
Those who were qualified to eat with Yang Fan sat around.
The maids served the dishes in a steady stream, and the main dish was hot pot with sauerkraut, white meat and blood sausage.
The side dishes are twice-cooked pork, vinegar-stewed musu, grilled beef strips, rainbow trout, tomato scrambled eggs, grilled eggplant with sauce, celery and lily, tiger cabbage, stir-fried, Qianlong cabbage, a large pot of sauced lamb ribs, etc.
The vegetables are all grown in the plastic film greenhouse in Zunhua.
Mei Xiang, who had never eaten at the Yang family in Zunhua, Aunt Mei and the maids sent by the Tushan family, Lin Yueru, Xiaoyu, and Xiaohong were all shocked that they could eat so many green vegetables this season.
Now that they are married, Yang Fan no longer cares about family matters. According to the Ming Dynasty's rules, this is the scope of authority of Xiao Niangpi, and Aunt Mei is the housekeeper, responsible for the daily work of the family, and is responsible to Xiao Niangpi. Everything is arranged by Xiao Niangpi.
In this era, every man has only one wife, and the wife has very great authority. Even where he sleeps at night is decided by his wife.
Yang Fan was quite lazy to begin with, so it was better to have someone help him, so he simply lay down and let his mother-in-law take care of him without having to use his brain.
She was quite happy with Yang Fan's cooperation, thinking it showed the master's respect for her.
Yang Fan and Tu Shanyue sat facing south, with Lin Yueru on their left and Mei Xiang on their right. Sister Xiangyi had to report to work, so she sat opposite Yang Fan and ate together.
Xiaoyu, Xiaohong and Aunt Mei set up several tables far away. They could not eat at the same table as Yang Fan.
Yang Fan first filled a bowl of delicious pickled cabbage soup and took a big sip with satisfaction. Then he picked up the big bones in the soup, wrapped the bone handles in a piece of paper and started chewing.
It's so refreshing, I just like the big bones in the pickled cabbage soup. It's fragrant and not greasy.
The food at home is still delicious. During this period of time when I was living in a military camp in the capital, all I ate was big pot rice. The quality of the food was incomparable to that at home.
"Master, would you like some wine?" Xiao Niangpi asked gently.
Yang Fan knew that she was greedy for wine. Since she drank too much and became drunk, Yang Fan usually didn't give her a drink. She always drank while Yang Fan was away.
No one cared about him at his parents' house, and Yang Fan gave her father a lot of red wine. Xiao Niangpi drank it well at home.
Yang Fan thought about it and felt happy when he got home. If he wanted to drink, he could drink some.
"Bring me my box of Wuliangye," Yang Fan said.
Tu Shanyue was excited. After she and Yaoguang killed a box of Maotai last time, Yang Fan hid the liquor. She searched everywhere but couldn't find it.
This time the name clearly means liquor, but I don’t know if this Wuliangye tastes good.
"Master, is this Wuliangye good to drink? I still want to drink the Moutai from last time," Xiao Niangpi said, shaking Yang Fan's arm.
Yang Fan smiled bitterly, now she has learned to act like a spoiled child.
"There are many good liquors. The Moutai you mentioned is Maotai-flavor liquor, and the Wuliangye liquor is strong-flavor liquor. There are also light-flavor liquors, which is the Daqu liquor you often drink, such as Shanxi Fenjiu. There is also a special-flavor liquor called
Four special wines. Everyone has different tastes, I think you can try them all."
Lin Yueru suddenly became interested and also clamored for a drink.
It was also popular for women to drink alcohol in this era. If you look at the ancient poems of Li Qingzhao, she is clearly a gambler and a drunkard.
What is it about being so drunk that you don’t know your way back? You run out to drink and fall drunk outside, and you are not afraid of being picked up.
Her husband is also big-hearted.
Why does a deep sleep not eliminate the remaining alcohol? How much did you drink? You still haven’t sobered up in the morning.
She also wrote a book on gambling to systematically organize this kind of knowledge in ancient times.
Yang Fan discovered that this was really the case in ancient times. It was common for ladies and ladies to play cards, make money, and drink.
There are six bottles of wine in a box, and two bottles are given to Aunt Mei and the maids.
There were four bottles left, and Yang Fan, Xiao Niangpi, Lin Yueru, and sisters Xiang Yi drank them all.
Xiao Niangpi and Lin Yueru went crazy, dragging Yang Fan to boxing and drinking.
Yang Fan was no match for these two. He was so drunk that he couldn't hold it down after drinking almost a pound of wine. He ignored these crazy bitches and went to sleep in the back warehouse.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When I woke up in the morning, my nose felt so delicious. I looked around and found Lin Yueru lying on the left, and Tu Shanyue and Mei Xiang lying on the right. The four of them were covered with a quilt.
.
Yang Fan was a little drunk. He only remembered that he ran back to sleep alone. He didn't remember who dragged his clothes. He didn't know when they came over.
They were all resting on their arms. No wonder I had a nightmare last night and had to lift weights all night long.
Lin Yueru's face was red, her head resting on her shoulder, and she was still muttering something in her sleep. She was the only one here who had not bowed to her as Duke Zhou, and she still looked shy like a young girl.
The hangover feels very bad, and I have a slight headache.
My stomach also feels uncomfortable and I want to go find something to eat.
Quietly he took out his arms and climbed up carefully so as not to wake up the wives.
Tuck them in to avoid catching cold.
Four people grabbed the quilt, but some of the quilts were not big enough, and the plum fragrance leaked out, leaving a patch of white flowers. They quickly stuffed her back.
It's still very cold in spring, and it won't be good if you catch a cold.
Yang Fan still loves his wife very much. Although it is a bit much now, it does not hinder him
Get dressed and walk to the bow of the boat to get some wind.
Yang Fan looked to both sides of the bank and saw that the fields were barren, the land was cracked due to drought, and the overwintering wheat seedlings were sparsely growing. It seemed that this year was another year of drought.
It is already 1628, the first year of Chongzhen, and natural and man-made disasters are about to take place. Yang Fan sighed. He couldn't control too much. He first completed the construction of the land he bought in the west of Zunhua.
In this troubled world, without a stable base, nothing can be done.
The diversion channel and diversion and spillway tunnel of the reservoir have been completed, and I just happened to be back, so I can intercept the water immediately.
At that time, a concrete gravity dam can be built by building dams above and below the mouth of the gorge and draining water from the middle. This dam is only two kilometers long. Yang Fan mobilized 100,000 people and estimated that it can be completed in one year.
Starting next year, the land here will no longer be afraid of floods and droughts. It will be enough to feed millions of people.
With the reservoir, an industrial zone can be built here, using water as power, a steel base integrating steelmaking and steel rolling can be built, and the textile industry, water-driven machine tool manufacturing, food processing, etc. can be developed.
Before the invention of the steam engine, hydraulic machinery was very important.
Yang Fan plans to move out of Zunhua City in the future. The space there is small and not conducive to development. Relying on the reservoir, Yang Fan plans to build a brand new industrial city with steel as the main industry and textile as a side industry. At the same time, it is enough to feed millions of people.
of fertile farmland.
This will be Yang Fan's base to change the Ming Dynasty.
