A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, there was no such restraint at the dinner table.

Chen Lizheng drank a lot of liquor and couldn't help asking boldly.

"Lord County Magistrate, I just heard you say that the imperial court will send a doctor to our Baishui County in the near future. Is it because of the murder case of Cai in Zhaojia Village? But Li Dalang has been dead for many days, and the doctor can still resuscitate the dead?"

Maybe he, a commoner, didn't realize that a doctor could really save people. After all, he was sent by the imperial court.

Bai Xiao explained, "It's Xu Tan, a doctor from the Ministry of Industry."

A few days ago, in Hejia Village under the jurisdiction of Baishui County, a villager went into the back mountain to dig some wild vegetables, but somehow he dug out some ore.

The county government immediately sent people to check, and it turned out to be saltpeter mine.

Bai Xiao immediately reported the situation in a letter, and the court immediately sent people from the Ministry of Industry down.

Fortunately, it was Xu Tan who came.

If someone from the top of Magistrate Jia comes, Bai Xiao will suffer a lot.

Xu Tan is Bai Xiao's classmate and friend when he was studying. The two have a close friendship.

Bai Xiao told the story again, and Chen Changsheng, who was eating vegetables silently on the side, whispered, "Saltpeter?"

Saltpeter is a good thing, it can make both ice and gunpowder.

If you make ice, you can make some sorbet in summer.

Gunpowder is even more powerful. In ancient times, it was an invincible military weapon.

It's just that no matter what, they are all classified as official.

Bai Xiao continued, "Mr. Xu and I are classmates. He is easy-going, fair and reliable, and a good person. The only thing is that this person has some germophilia and has very high requirements for accommodation conditions.

That's why I hurriedly built a new batch of official rooms, but I don't know if they can meet their needs. "

The official houses in the county town are old and old in style. Some of them are not exposed to the sun all year round. There is a bit of mold inside the house, and some of them are leaking.

It would be impossible for Xu Tan to live in such a leaky house.

Although the problem of red bricks for building a house has been solved, Bai Xiao still needs to find a craftsman to build a new-style official house so that he can receive his old friend.

It's just that he hasn't thought about the new style yet and has no idea.

Chen Changsheng waited for Bai Xiao to finish everything and then said with a faint smile, "I have seen house drawings in books before. It is said that they are of the style from the Western Regions, and I still have some vague impressions of them."

In her previous life, she liked to watch the construction and decoration of houses. She didn't know how to build a house, but the layout of the house was talkative.

This time when his family was building a house, Chen Changsheng wanted to build it according to a new layout, especially a toilet and shower room.

She has long been unable to bear the pain of not being able to take a bath every day in hot weather.

Bai Xiao's eyes lit up.

"Mrs. Chen still knows how to build a house?"

"I'm not 100% sure, but based on my impressions, I can probably make a rough sketch of the drawing."

With the bracelet as a reference, what kind of house could Chen Changsheng not be able to draw?

"If you draw the house building drawings, please give me a copy as soon as possible. Bai will express your gratitude." Bai Xiao said solemnly.

For some reason, when Bai Xiao heard Chen Changsheng say that she could draw a house drawing, she believed that she could draw it.

After dinner, Chen Changsheng and Li Zheng sent Bai Xiao to the carriage, which left Chenjia Village.

Looking at the high-end carriage, Satoshi couldn't help but sigh again, "I don't know what it's like to sit on that carriage."

His old man will never have the chance to sit down in this life.

But thanks to Chen Changsheng, the old man still had the opportunity to sit at the same table with the county magistrate.

This is not something to brag about.

I just don't know if I made any joke just now because I was drunk.

Dafu and Erlu took their two brothers and sisters outside to clean up the mess of lunch, and Chen Changsheng got into the house.

She bought two old books on house construction from the bracelet mall, mainly with pictures and supplemented by text.

Putting the books and papers into the basket, Chen Changsheng walked towards the old house.

Mrs. Liu has been studying the sugar cane pressing machine that Chen Changsheng wants at home these days.

This was the first time she had heard of a sugar cane machine, and she didn't know what her sister-in-law was using it for.

Chen Changsheng also drew a sketch for her and explained the general working principle to Ms. Liu.

Liu's carpentry skills are well used, but the sugar cane press cannot be made by carpentry skills alone. It still needs big stones, and the weight of the big stones is used to grind the sugar cane.

Mrs. Liu asked someone to find two large smooth rocks. Now she was tinkering with the rocks.

Looking up, she saw Chen Changsheng coming. Mrs. Liu greeted her enthusiastically and said, "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"

Chen Changsheng took out the drawings from the basket, unfolded them and said, "The county magistrate wants to build an official house, and asked me to help draw the house drawings. I thought about it myself, but a person's vision is always small, so I came to you to discuss it. discuss."

She introduced the drawings in detail, explaining clearly what facing north and south, being transparent from north to south, and how to open the windows.

Mrs. Liu only felt novel when she heard that the house could be built in this way, and the stove could be built in the house.

In Chenjiacun, all kitchen stoves are built outside the house, with a roof at most.

Chen Changsheng explained, “It’s better to build the stove inside the house, so you won’t feel cold when cooking in winter, and you can put firewood in the kitchen without worrying about getting wet in the rain.

Then build an earthen kang in the house, burn firewood on the stove, and the heat is transmitted to the bottom of the earthen kang through the conduction port, so it will be warm to sleep in winter. "

In the summer, when not in use, seal it up so it doesn't get in the way.

The more Ms. Liu listened, the more curious she became, "Sister-in-law, your idea is really good."

During the twelfth lunar month of winter, she, a woman, had cold hands and feet all year round. When she slept under the quilt at night, it was like crawling through an ice hole, and she shivered from the cold.

Her husband Chen Youjin would also cover her hands, but she still felt cold.

Chen Changsheng explained the drawings again, and finally explained his purpose.

"It's not enough to have building drawings. The contents of a house are also crucial to making it comfortable. I plan to have a table, wardrobe and bed in every sleeping room."

Several children in the family were studying, and the dining table in the main room was lame on one leg, wobbly and in tatters.

Chen Changsheng wants to arrange a large desk for each child.

The table should be placed by the window so that it is bright and will not hurt the eyes when studying.

The wardrobe is of course used to hang clothes, and some hangers are also needed.

Mrs. Liu didn't understand when she came here. Aren't the clothes always put in boxes? Why should they be hung up?

But since my sister-in-law said this, she certainly has a point. Maybe everyone in the city is like this.

Chen Changsheng took out another stack of paper and a charcoal pen and gave it to Liu, "You try what I just said. I believe you can do it."

Since Liu can master the difficult techniques of mortise and tenon, those daily household items are definitely not a problem either.

Chen Changsheng planned to use these things at his own home.
