The cold rain in winter makes us cry like weeping, and it is so lingering that it makes people angry. The clothes that have just been dried will soon be wet with water, and it will be so wet that it makes it uncomfortable to move.
Yunzheng jumped down from the bullock cart, led the cow to the shed, and wiped the cow with linen cloth first. He didn't bother to wipe the rain on his head. Only when he got here did he understand a truth, that is, cows are better than humans.
More importantly, several women in the kitchen helped Yun Zheng unload the brown rice from the oxcart. When one of the women saw that Yun Zheng was covered in mud, she complained: "How can you cover the brown rice with a raincoat? There are no two pieces of rice."
The sky will be eaten up, even if it rains a little, it doesn’t matter.”
Yunzheng unloaded a small basket of eggs from the ox cart and said to the woman with a smile: "It doesn't matter, these are for people to eat. How can they see water? After seeing water, wouldn't they become double-steamed rice?"
Everyone is working hard, and if you don’t eat enough, you will die. There was still a little bit left over from the food a few days ago, so I bought some eggs and made some dumpling soup for everyone to drink to keep them warm."
The woman laughed and said: "You still have a way. In the past, brown rice alone was not enough for everyone. You insisted on making sure everyone had food and vegetables. Now you have to make soup. If you stay on the construction site like this, you will become a county boss."
It’s been a long time.”
Yun Zheng gave a bitter smile. He didn't know how the officials provided the supply. They gave him very little brown rice, but they gave him salted vegetables at the very end. He didn't know that it was the salted vegetables pickled that year. It was a big, dark mass.
Jar, if the person in charge of the treasury has not said enough, just come and pull it. Yun Zheng took a look at the seal. It has the mark of Wu Shengjun on it. Needless to say, it was eliminated from the army.
There was no other way, so Yun Zheng exchanged the salted vegetables and mountain people for brown rice and some meat oil. As long as the mountain people had salt to eat, it was a good thing. They would not pick it up. This gave Yun Zheng a big advantage.
The more than 100 laborers he was responsible for were very satisfied with their food. No wonder, no one who had enough food and rice could say anything.
The mountain people are actually runaways. They hide in the mountains and farm and feed themselves. They sound carefree, but in fact they are wallowing on the edge of life and death every day, fighting against the mountains, wild beasts, and bandits in the mountains.
After a month of fighting at the foot of the mountain, Yun Zheng never saw an elderly mountain man. They would not live past the age of thirty.
After drinking a large bowl of Shuixiu Soup, Yunzheng felt a little warmth in his body. He had taught these women to make the Shuixiu Soup. He only needed a handful of cassava flour and an egg to make it.
Bring a pot of soup and sprinkle some green vegetable foam on it. Not only does it look good, it also tastes good, but it has no nutrition and is just a lie.
The gong to sign off the work rang, and the laborers got into the shed one by one like ghosts from the rain, swinging around the fire pit and unwilling to leave. The woman in charge of the ladle started to chase them away with a big ladle.
"We are sitting around the fire pit, but are you still thinking about eating? My dear husband, seeing how pitiful you are, I have prepared delicious food for you all today. There are some chickens. Take a sip to go away the cold."
The honest Xan Gu was almost pushed out of the shed, but Yun Zheng pulled him to sit behind his broken table, which was protected from the wind. He served him a large bowl of soup. There was no preferential treatment, but the top was thin.
The thin egg yolks are slightly more. There is a lot of soup. Xanthium sibiricum drinks an extra bowl. There is no food in the stomach, but it is full of clear soup. When it moves, the stomach makes a clanging sound, like a big animal that has just finished drinking water. There is no one.
Jokes are all the same.
Yun Zheng has never had a limit on the brown rice here. With two pieces of salted vegetables, they can eat a large bowl. Since coming to this world, Yun Zheng has found that his appetite has also increased sharply. The coarse porcelain bowl is as big as a head.
Eating two bowls is no problem.
It has been a month since I came to the construction site. Liu Dutou has appeared three times in total. I didn't expect him to come here today. He looked at the laborers' rice bowls, nodded with satisfaction, took another spoonful of egg soup from the pot and took a sip.
, his eyes couldn't help but shine, he filled himself a large bowl, sat on Yunzheng's broken table, drank and said: "After walking around for a long time, your place looks like a place where living people live. Boy, measure the earth."
"Do you know how to do the work? If you know how to do it, come with me to measure the earthwork. I won't let you do this work in vain. It costs fifty cents a day."
Yun Zheng smiled and said: "You are going to dig a ditch again. Of course I can do it. Not only can I do it, I also know that you are going to dig a ditch in the middle of the mountain. The water in the fortress on the mountain cannot be drained out. It is winter now, so this
A little rain will cause waterlogging. If we wait for heavy rains in spring and summer, haha, there will be a lot of excitement on the mountain. Maybe all the work we did in winter will be in vain and will be washed away by the rain."
Hearing this, Liu Dutou put down the bowl in his hand, slapped Yun Zheng on the head and said with a smile: "You are the only one who is clever, grandma, a scholar should be like you, hurry up and think of the most economical thing."
This is an extra work, and the boss won’t pay you. If you come up with it, I, Old Liu, will reward you.”
"Actually, there is no need to clear away the accumulated water on the mountain. The northern slope of Dousha Pass is just such a hill. The mountain is steep and difficult to defend and difficult to attack. That's why the adults have to build a fortress here to form a mutual support with Dousha Pass. But...
, there is a lack of water on the mountain, which means that this mountain cannot be defended for a long time. If I were the enemy and surrounded this mountain as long as the troops allowed, it would not take long, ten days is enough, and this mountain would be gone.
Attack and collapse."
Liu Dutou lifted Yun Zheng's face and said jokingly: "I didn't realize that we have a master of military art here. You can tell me how to solve this problem so that I, old Liu, can improve his knowledge."
Mr. Yunzheng, the storyteller, patted the table and said: "If you dig a canal in the water storage cellar, the total length of the canal will not be less than three miles. According to the current progress, you will have to work for at least a month. If you dig the canal on the mountain
Once the waterlogging pond is utilized, there will be no such worries and it can be cleared out in three to five days. When it rains heavily, the rainwater will flow into the waterlogging pond, so you don't have to worry about the rainwater rushing into the fortress below."
"Nonsense, where did the waterlogged pond come from on the mountain? If you want to rebuild the waterlogged pond, I might as well dig a canal. At least you don't have to dig stones to pave the pond. I thought you had come up with a good idea, but it turned out to be a waste of money. The governor of Doushaguan is already here.
We didn't say anything. What the hell are we thinking? Doing your job well is the most important thing." Liu Dutou was a little disappointed.
Yunzheng banged his head on the table violently, making a banging sound. Liu Dutou grabbed Yunzheng's neck and lifted him up and said, "Speak carefully, why are you so angry?"
"Oh my God, Douchuan has been guarding the Five Feet Road for thousands of years. After so many years of Qin, Han, Three Kingdoms, Jin and Tang, Zhuge Liang once stationed troops here. Don't those famous ministers and brave generals know how to use this hilltop? Yuan Yuan of the Tang Dynasty.
The cliff carvings of Zi are on the roadside. It clearly says that there is a waterlogged pond made of bluestone on the top of the mountain. The old man even washed his feet here. I don’t believe it. After all these years, those stones
