Fengyang was sealed off.

"Father! Erlang sent a letter from Jingyang, and there is a package of things." Feng Jianwen took the crops that Feng Zhu had sent from Jingyang and rushed into the study.

He handed the letter to Feng Yushan, and Feng Yushan opened it and read it carefully after receiving it.

The letter stated that the parcel contained the crops discovered by Cheng Fang Zhongyuan of Jingyang County. These crops were not only high-yielding, but also very easy to grow.

Feng Yushan put down the letter, and he quickly opened the package on the table.

Only then did Feng Jianwen have time to pick up the letter and read it.

"These are all from Erlang?" Feng Yushan touched the crops in the package.

They were all new to him, and he dug out these three crop seedling raising methods in the package as mentioned in the bamboo letter.

After reading it, Feng Yushan touched the crops.The corners of the wrinkled mouth moved, and bright light burst out from the cloudy eyes, "Good! Good!"

At this moment, Feng Jianwen also read Feng Zhu's letter, he was overjoyed, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.

The emperor wanted to lend food to the tribes in the west, and asked the Feng family to prepare.

But now there is a famine caused by wars at the border of Dayuan, and the disaster in the south of the Yangtze River is severe, and there is also a famine.Da Yuan, who is short of food everywhere, must not give out any more food.

If the Feng family really did this, the historian's pen would make future generations poke the Feng family's back and scold them for eating the flesh and blood of the people of the Great Yuan.

The originally gloomy Feng family father and son gradually became clearer after receiving the things Feng Zhu brought.

"If these crops are really what Erlang said in his letter, the Feng family will have escaped a catastrophe this time." Feng Jianwen then asked Feng Yushan, "Father, what do you think Emperor Ding'an is thinking? Lowering taxes for the sake of people's livelihood, while sending food regardless of the disaster situation. Isn't this contradictory?"

Feng Yushan pondered for a while, and he seemed to have some clues today when he was asked by Feng Jianwen about something that he hadn't figured out before.

"Yes and no." Feng Yushan glanced at Feng Jian Wen and said, "Think about it carefully, in the past two days, has any civil and military family in the Manchu Dynasty mentioned that Mr. Zhao was suspected of murdering the first prince?"

After thinking about it carefully, Feng Jianwen hissed, "Not really. Mr. Yu under Xie Xiang's subordinates danced the best before, but it seems that since the emperor agreed to send food to the tribe in the west, Mr. Yu never mentioned it again. This is Mr. Zhao's fault."

Feng Yushan nodded and said that's right, and then preached to Feng Jianwen: "The emperor has dragged on for so long, but he didn't take any action against Zhao's residence. He didn't even lock up people, but sent troops to guard Zhao's residence to restrict travel.

But who knows, is the emperor really restricting the Zhao family or protecting the Zhao family?

In this turmoil, whoever mentions Mr. Zhao, the emperor will let someone else fill the granaries of the tribes in the west. "

"But if no one mentions it all the time, wouldn't there be no food?" Feng Jianwen asked.

Then he seemed to think of something, shook his head and denied, "No. It was the emperor himself who said that the tribes in the west wanted food. But no one knows whether they really want food or not."

Feng Yushan nodded slightly, "It's not in vain that you have been an official for so many years." He stroked his beard and said, "I think it's fake for the tribes in the west to ask for food, but it's true for trade."

"Father, did you already know?" Feng Jianwen asked.

Feng Yushan glanced at him, and said angrily: "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't be so sad a few days ago!"

Feng Yushan touched the parcel of crops with his old hand, "However, the emperor is determined to do business. Now that we have these crops, our Dayuan has more right to speak, and we can get a lot of good things in exchange. "

Feudal Wen was not very willing, he just said: "I hope I am not like Beidan and Xijue. Feed the unfamiliar white-eyed wolf and repeat the same mistakes."

It is said that if you eat a pit, you will gain wisdom, but their Emperor Ding'an seems to never turn back if he hits the south wall.

The worries of these courtiers.

...

The "big tent" that Zhao Keran wanted to give to the barracks was actually a yurt.

If the yurt wants to be big, it needs more wall brackets.It is also called Hana in Mongolian.

There are five options for the wall brackets of a yurt, the least is four, and the two are superimposed one by one, and the most is twelve.

The yurt with four fence brackets is the smallest and the yurt with twelve is the largest.

If there are eight or more fence supports, you need to add pillars.Add four pillars within ten to support the weight of the top.

The whole yurt consists of three parts, which are frame wood, thatch felt and ropes.

The frame wood is further divided into tanuo, rafters, wall brackets and thresholds.

The tainuo is at the top, connecting the rafters in the middle.Zhao Keran uses a joint type, which can be easily separated from the rafters below, and it will be very convenient to transport.

The rafters are between the brackets of the wall and the setao on the top, and are the shoulders of the yurt.Its length and quantity will change with the setao on the top, and its thickness will change with the wall bracket below.

In this way, the entire yurt can be shoulder-length and round.

The brackets of the fence are generally made of red willow like the rafters.Red willow can be seen everywhere in the Northwest. It is light but not easy to break, and it is not easy to be deformed by moisture, so it is very suitable for skeletons.

The fence bracket is more convenient to make. Zhao Keran drew it for Pan Dahai according to the drawings in the system.

Pan Dahai moved quickly, and red willows of the same length and thickness crossed each other at the same distance, forming many meshes.Use camel skins to make leather nails at the intersection points. The more leather nails, the higher the wall bracket can be erected, but it is not easy to elongate.If there are fewer nails, the opposite is true.The vertical is not high but can be stretched.

The finished fencing brackets bulge out in the middle, but the head is straighter than the bottom to better stabilize the rafters.Moreover, it can make the shape of the bag round, which is convenient for hooping with a rope.

The head of the rafter above the wall bracket bears the weight evenly, and then distributes it through the mesh of uniform size until it reaches the bottom.

Pan Dahai thought this manufacturing method was very interesting, so he asked Zhao Keran how much the frame of the big tent could bear. Zhao Keran looked at the system information and said, "If the force is even and correct, it should be about [-] catties."

This surprised Pan Dahai, he could guess that the bearing capacity would be relatively large, but he didn't expect it to be so large.

Finally, after the threshold is erected on the brackets of the fence, it is enough to hang felt outside to make the door.

After the skeleton is ready, it is necessary to make a roof and a felt.

After Zhao Keran measured the size, he directly handed it over to Hong Feng. He had a batch of materials, so he just saved it and collected it.Zhao Keran urged Hong Feng to make felt strictly according to the size.

"By the way, get some more camel skins. I'm afraid your stock will not be enough later." Zhao Keran instructed.

Hong Feng nodded in agreement, "My lord said that there are many more soldiers in Qingyu Pass than those outside Jingyang City. I think it's not enough. Thank you for your reminder."

"By the way, you are asking people to use horsehair and ponytail. Three strands left and three strands right are twisted into six thin strands." Zhao Keran gestured to Hong Feng, "After twisting, use two, four, or six strands to sew together side by side."

Hong Feng was puzzled and asked, "What's the use of this?"

Zhao Keran explained: "This kind of rope is also called a rope, and it does not stretch when stretched. The big tent is very big, and the pressure on the fence bracket is high. It must be surrounded by a strong enough rope, which can not only prevent the big tent from collapsing, but also fix it. The outer blanket."

Hong Feng clapped his hands after hearing this, and sighed, "It's wonderful!"

Zhao Keran thought that something could be wrong, he spent [-] energy points to buy this yurt at the system mall!

But this isn't a real yurt, it's a big tent at best.

The real yurts are very particular about decoration patterns and interior layout, and they are all of great significance.

Because of the detailed drawings and Master Pan's superb craftsmanship, the skeleton was quickly completed.

Felt production can only be done manually because there is no machine, and the speed is slowed down.

Zhao Keran has already omitted the bleaching step, but it takes a lot of time to rub the embryo and pound the felt.

While waiting for Hong Feng to make blankets, Zhao Keran led people to Hedong Village to teach how to make a kang.

Now that there is a war, the iron ore industry is strictly controlled by the imperial court.He asked Fang Zhongyuan Jingyang about the control of iron mines before, and Fang Zhongyuan told him that no one can use them at will except the blacksmith workshop under the iron mines.

Ordinary people save some money to build an iron pot at home, and they have to register it.

As a result, Zhao Keran stopped to burn cement, unless there was a reason to do so.Otherwise, I'm afraid we can only have a chance to get it after the battle is over.

There is no way to calcine the cement, and the pavement on the kang can only be built with loess adobe to build a veritable adobe kang.

Weeds are added to the adobe to make adobe bricks, and the people of Hedong Village are very handy in making this.

Zhao Keran didn't intend to hide the skill of pan-kang, Zhao Keran didn't think it was a big problem for anyone who learned to help each other pan-kang or rely on this skill to seek a fortune in other villages.

But also to prevent anyone from having bad intentions, he warned everyone: "If you want to get some copper coins by relying on the craftsmanship of the kang, I will not stop you. However, if someone asks for a big price, then don't blame me for shutting them down." Go into the composting pool to refresh and sober up!"

The manure pool in Hedong Village is famous for its smell.

Liu Sizhu was imprisoned there at the beginning, wailing every day.The sound was horrible.

No one wants to experience it for themselves.

Zhao Keran clicked as soon as he could, and accepted as soon as he saw it.

Everyone in Hedong Village was almost scared out of their wits.

He glanced at Ru Feng and Huo Yuan who were following behind him. He wanted Ru Feng to help Pan Kang, but Huo Yuan gave Zhao Keran a desperate look.

The eyes of the two met, and Zhao Keran made a decision in his heart.

good!You are the one!

"Brother Yuan, come and do it with me, I'll teach you."

Huo Yuan nodded, then lifted his robe and pinned it to his waist, "How do you do it?"

Zhao Keran took the map and explained to Huo Yuan, "First build three flues to make a kang hole. If there is less, the stove will be overheated, and it will be difficult to go out if there is too much smoke. Then erect the adobe to support the kang surface .”

After getting a general understanding, the two started to work together, and Zhao Keran explained while doing it.

"The upright adobes used as supports should be lined up so that it is convenient to check the inside of the kang hole later."

Huo Yuan did his part well, and watched Zhao Keran only finish half of it.Without even thinking about it, I helped him do it together.

After the flue is built on the soil kang, it is covered with a finished loess slab.Then spread a layer of thatch on top, sprinkle some water and then cover with fine soil to prevent cracking.

After the fine soil is leveled, it should be wiped with yellow sand mixed with yellow mud, and it should be wiped twice to ensure that the kang will not leak smoke.

From the beginning, Zhao Keran did it together, and gradually he directed Huo Yuan to do it.

Standing outside the kang hole, Zhao Keran was relaxed, and he reminded Huo Yuan, "Brother Yuan, the surface of the kang should be smoothed, and the heat will be even when the kang is heated."

This kang is connected to the stove, as long as the fire is turned on for cooking, the kang can be heated up.

After the kang was ready, there were a few smart people in Hedong Village, and they would know it after reading it once.

They put up a kang for themselves, tried to burn it, and it really succeeded!

"This bed will heat itself! Don't we have to worry about freezing to death this winter!"

"I will definitely survive the winter this year!"

A few of them have become the most sought-after treasures in the village, and every family is counting the days when this kang will be available in their own home.

And one of them is a woman.

Her name is Shen Xiaoshan, and she was a refugee before.Before she escaped and came to Hedong Village, she was never valued at home.

After Beidan invaded the city, her family abandoned her and ran away with her younger brother.

She knew that she was a loser in the mouth of her grandparents.

In the future, I will marry into someone else's family anyway, and I will die when I die.

In the end, Brother Du brought her out, protecting her and taking care of her along the way.

She is grateful.

But at the same time, she also felt that she was useless.Everything depends on the help of others. She can't do anything well by herself, and no one needs her.

Is it because she is so useless that the family doesn't want her?

But she never thought that there would be a day when she would be needed.

"Oh, Xiaoshan, come and drink some sugar water." Aunt Wang Liu came into the room with a bowl of sugar water, and greeted Shen Xiaoshan, who was busy with sweat, "This is what your Uncle Wang Liu went to Huimin Supermarket to buy with great difficulty." Made with maltose. This thing is sold for two days a month now, but it was hard to get it."

Shen Xiaoshan kept moving her hands, she said briskly, "Aunt Six, I'm not tired. Drink this sugar water by yourself, it's good for your health."

Aunt Wang Liu quit, and went to drag Shen Xiaoshan with sugar water.Shen Xiaoshan was afraid of spilling the hard-won sugar water, so he had no choice but to stand up.

Aunt Wang Liu sent the bowl forward, Shen Xiaoshan couldn't refuse it, and accepted it embarrassedly, "Aunt Six, this bowl of sugar water is worth my wages. You don't need to give it to me later."

"Hey, that's impossible!" Aunt Wang Liu refused without even thinking about it. She pinned Shen Xiaoshan's scattered hair behind her ears, "It's not easy for you to go out alone with a girl. Besides, Your workmanship on this kang is better than that of those few, and you are more careful. Fourth Aunt Qian and Aunt Fan did not boast less in front of me. If Auntie doesn’t give you money, I’m afraid you won’t be able to sleep on this kang.”

Shen Xiaoshan didn't speak any more, she took a sip of sugar water.The sweet taste should make people happy, but she couldn't stop her tears.

"Why are you crying, child?" Aunt Wang Liu asked after touching Shen Xiaoshan's hair.

Shen Xiaoshan shook his head, sniffed and said, "Aunt Six's sugar water is so delicious. It's so delicious that I cried."

She had never felt needed before, and now she did.

Even though she was alone, Shen Xiaoshan still felt completely happy at this moment.

...

When the Pankang team from Hedong Village had already started to go to other villages, Hong Feng finally found them. Zhao Keran checked and accepted the felt. After confirming that it was correct, he contacted Steward Xu and went to the barracks the next day.

This time, Pan Dahai was added, and he was going to stay in the camp to teach the soldiers how to make tent skeletons.

Inside the carriage, Zhao Keran said to Hong Feng: "Felt can also be made into insoles, which are soft and warm for the soles of the feet. It can also be cut into capes to protect against wind and rain."

After Hong Feng thought for a while, he clapped his hands, yes!Why didn't he think of it!

Zhao Keran turned his head, avoiding Hong Feng's gaze that looked at him like Jin Yuanbao.

When Zhao Keran came to the barracks this time, after Xu Jun got the news from Butler Xu, he stood outside the barracks to welcome him.

Xu Jun turned his head slightly to see that Zhao Keran had brought several carriages this time, all of which were covered with cloth, making it difficult to see what was inside.

After the two greeted each other, Xu Jun rode a horse and brought them into the camp.

Earlier, Zhao Keran asked Steward Xu to inform Xu Jun to prepare a larger open space.

Xu Jun led the people to the prepared space, where Guo Can and Liu Zhidu were standing there waiting.

Seeing that everything was ready, Zhao Keran asked someone to remove the cloth covering the first carriage.

"General Xu, come and see if this felt is the one you mentioned?" Zhao Keran called to Xu Jun.

Xu Jun immediately stepped forward to check. He touched it for a long time, but didn't say whether it was true or not.Anxious Guo Shen cursed at the back, "I said you idiot, your eyes are not working well? You can't see why after looking at something for a long time, I think you don't fight in the future, go home and be your young master for the elderly Bar!"

Guo Shen touched it with his hands for a while, thinking that it was the felt used by Beidan and Xijue, he shook his hand, and glanced at Zhao Keran quietly.

My mother, did this county magistrate really make it?

Xu Jun stopped his hand and regained his senses. He was pleasantly surprised: "I got a small piece of felt once." He pointed to the cart of felt sent by Zhao Keran, and said with a smile: "Magistrate Zhao, you are better than Beidan. Xijue's felt is even better!"

Zhao Keran raised his eyebrows. He didn't know the felt making methods of Beidan and Xijue. According to Xu Jun's words, their making methods are relatively basic.

"General Xu, it's not too late to be happy after watching the 'Big Tent'." Zhao Keran reminded.

yes!He almost forgot that the little county magistrate said that he had set up a tent with more space!

Xu Jun asked Zhao Keran, "I don't know what Zhao county magistrate needs to build this 'big tent', so I'll let my men do it."

Zhao Keran shook his head. He pointed to another carriage and said, "I have already brought it. You just need to unfold it and wrap it with felt."

Brought it?What's the meaning?

Xu Jun, Guo Shen, and Liu Zhidu looked in the direction of Zhao Keran's finger.

Pan Dahai lifted the cloth and asked the soldiers around him to help him transport the skeleton of the tent.

"There is so little wood in this big tent?" Xu Jun was puzzled.

For the convenience of marching, the tents are generally not too large.Firstly, in order to avoid large-scale support with heavy wood, it saves transportation costs.

The second reason is that there is not so much money to buy so many leather aprons.

Smaller and warmer in winter.

"It's made of red willow, which is very tough. And the way I used to build the tent frame can be folded, it doesn't take up much space, and it's very convenient to transport."

Under Pan Dahai's command, the soldiers quickly unfolded and fixed all the skeletons.

After fixing, start to wrap around according to the felt size.Finally, it is surrounded by a special horsehair and horsetail rope.

A huge big tent appeared in the open space of the barracks.

The three people in Xu Jun stared wide-eyed, and couldn't believe the scene in front of them was real during the whole process.

"My mother, is this still a tent? Is this something that won't collapse?" Guo Shen rubbed his head with an expression of disbelief.

Zhao Keran turned his head sideways, looked at Guo Shen and said, "Go in and have a look and you'll know."

Several people followed Zhao Keran into the interior, from the setao on the top of the head, to the rafters in the middle and finally the wall brackets, they complement each other and support each other.

Hold out the huge space.

"This is our Dayuan's 'big tent'." Zhao Keran smiled and asked the three of Xu Jun, "Are the generals satisfied?"

Xu Jun nodded, satisfied!Could not be more satisfied!

"Military account, good!" Guo Shen showed a rare smile to Zhao Keran, and he decided to exclude this small county magistrate from his hatred list.

"This army tent has a lot of space, so we can put a sand table in the middle in the future. Last time I saw that there was only one map in General Xu's tent, it was too inconvenient to look at." Zhao Keran looked around and asked the system to scan to make sure that the big tent was intact. any problem.

Xu Jun was taken aback by his inadvertent words, "Magistrate Zhao, what is the 'sand table'?"

Zhao Keran looked back, "It's a model made of sand and sand according to a certain proportion according to the map and terrain."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Keran realized a problem when he saw the three people who were stunned, "You don't know the sand table?"

The three nodded.

Zhao Keran: Well, he was careless...

In the end, Zhao Keran, who was supposed to leave early, taught Xu Jun and Guo Shen how to pinch the mud for a long time.

And this Guo Shen is still a scumbag, it's fine if he can't learn well, but he dumped all the mud on him.

When Xu Jun had almost learned, Zhao Keran immediately packed up his things and left, unable to stop him.Only Pan Dahai was left in the barracks to teach the generals how to make the skeleton of the army tent.

After returning to the county government office, when Zhao Keran got off the carriage, he found someone standing on the screen wall in front of the government office.When he got closer, he saw that it was Huo Yuan.

The carriage Zhao Keran was riding in belonged to the Xu family, and housekeeper Xu left after sending him back.

"Brother Yuan, what are you doing standing outside?" Zhao Keran asked puzzled, it was already very late and the city gates were closed.If it wasn't for him being the county magistrate with a sign, he might not be able to get in tonight.

He couldn't figure out why Huo Yuan didn't sleep here to be the door god, Huo Yuan couldn't figure it out himself, maybe he was worried about something happening to his teacher's child.

"Did you dig mountains in the camp?" Huo Yuan changed the subject, he couldn't answer Zhao Keran's question.

Zhao Keran looked down at his dirty robe, scratched his head embarrassingly, "I'm going to change it now."

He came back too late, and he was too embarrassed to call Shumo, so he thought of running to boil water to wash himself.

Huo Yuan followed behind without saying a word, holding the lamp for Zhao Keran.

Looking at the faint lights scattered on the ground, Zhao Keran thought about making candles.

Dayuan now has candles, which are made of beeswax.Its cost is high, and non-royal families cannot use it.

Others wanted light and made oil lamps out of animal fat.

[000, are there wax worms in the mall? 】

000 said to wait for it to check, [Yes Brother Ran, I sent you the information. 】【White wax worm, required energy points: 50000.Can be used as candles and traditional Chinese medicine accessories. 】Zhao Keran silently turned off the system, not in a hurry for candles or anything.Wait until he completes the task of sending warmth...

000: Brother Ran, you also fell in love with me briefly this time, huh.

Huo Yuan helped Zhao Keran light the lights all the way, Zhao Keran was very moved.He planned to care about the emotional status of the employees, certainly not because he was too curious.

"Brother Yuan, have you met someone interesting recently?"

Hearing this, Huo Yuan raised the lampstand in his hand, and saw Zhao Keran's face clearly through the weak light.

There was also a lot of yellow mud on his fair and handsome face in the past.

"There is one," he said.

Zhao Keran was faintly excited, hey!

He firmly suppressed his gossip soul, making his voice less excited, "What kind of thing?"

Huo Yuan said: "A wicked little cat."

Just bite him and say he is old.

It's really bad.
