Nongmen Space: Farming lady is not easy to mess with

Chapter 59 An Mou is Admired
An Xingzhou stood at the door with a complicated mood.

Isn't that the benefactor of Yuan County, Mr. Jing, who is lying on the bed under the quilt with only one head exposed, smiling harmlessly to humans and animals?

This room obviously belonged to Miss Shu.

So... uh... this...

"What is Master An doing at the door?"

Shu Yingtong stood in front of the table and spread out the blueprints, and looked back at An Xingzhou who was embarrassed.

"Not suitable not suitable..."

I thought it was a discussion study room before, but I didn't expect it to be a women's boudoir, and there is still such an imaginative scene inside.

Do not see evil, dare not ask, dare not enter...

Shu Yingtong was noncommittal, took the blueprint and went out.

"Huiru, help me move a table over here."

"Hey~"

Huiru, who was choosing vegetables with a group of children, responded crisply, shook the water on her hands, and asked the two older children to move the table, while she went to the stove to boil water.

Girls come to have a happy life, let's serve brown sugar water.

After Shu Yingtong gave the order, she turned around and went into the room, took two chairs and put them at the door, and the two children carried the table down and left.

"Master An, this is the latest blueprint."

A stack of yellow papyrus was spread out on the table, the first one was the "Nine Curses and Eight Laps" that I wanted to explain to him.

An Xingzhou sat down with his robe in his robe and read the drawings, and he admired Shu Yingtong in his heart.

The drawings are not only drawn vividly, but also have annotations everywhere, which can be understood at a glance.

The downstream is strongly impacted by the water flow, so it is necessary to build water barriers and dikes to reduce the water potential.

Those made of stones are called water shovels, and those made of earth are called yi.

If the accumulated soil is built into a water fence, the water will not be able to shake the tower but can protect the tower, which is especially good.

The original wooden suspension bridge was changed into a stone arch bridge, which can be used for vehicles and horses.

From the slate arch bridge to Huashitan, there are nine water traps in total.

The water raft is cylindrical and built with rectangular stone strips.The total height is three feet, only one foot above the water.

The foundation is laid with wooden plum blossom piles, and the piles are filled with soil, random stones, weeds, etc. to fix them.

A layer of stones is laid on the foundation, and then stones, lime and glutinous rice juice are used to glue them together.

The outer layer is piled up with two verticals and one leveling method, and finally filled with earth and rocks.

A water fence is built every thirty feet, and the water fence is built next to the wall.

"It's wonderful, it's wonderful, An Mou is deeply impressed."

An Xingzhou's face was full of joy, as if he had found a treasure, he even changed his name.

Huiru came forward with a tray, set the large teapot and cups on the handle, nodded and lowered her eyebrows, poured brown sugar water for the two, and then stepped back to continue choosing dishes.

"This teacup..."

An Xingzhou held the celadon teacup in shock, and turned to look at Shu Yingtong who was drinking water with his head down calmly.

It is clear and clear, and the elegant glaze color of green as jade is pleasing to the eye and warm to the touch.

As far as he knew, all the villagers here were fleeing famine, and this kind of porcelain must not be available to them.

"Porcelain clay from Beimang Mountain plus a few porcelain craftsmen who have worked hard." Shu Yingtong answered his question concisely.

An Xingzhou felt deeply ashamed that he knew nothing about such excellent resources under his jurisdiction.

She is far-sighted, know people and make good use of them.

"Ms. Shu must have known the surroundings of Huanshan Village like the back of her hand, right?"

"Ah."

"I admire you."

A simple word, the hard work contained in it is not simple.

"I don't want to discuss this. The road is impassable, and I can't use it. Let's talk about water. I want a lot of glutinous rice. At least fifty shi."

It is not only necessary to build water tanks, but also to build villages.

An Xingzhou looked embarrassed, "Do you know the current price of rice?"

"I don't know."

She only knew that one tael of silver could buy five shi of new rice in normal years.If one stone is converted to 120 jin in modern times, one tael of silver is calculated as a thousand renminbi, and a catty of rice costs only six renminbi.

In famine years, even the price of cloth and salt has risen outrageously, and it is conceivable that the price of rice must be even more outrageous.

Moreover, the yield of glutinous rice is lower than that of rice, and the price is more expensive.

"A stone of glutinous rice costs 24 taels..."

An Xingzhou was in a difficult situation, King Yi allocated 5000 taels of silver, and Miss Shu would have to go for 200 taels for a village.

There are so many villages and towns in Yuanxian County, and there are too many places to spend money.

"Outrageous." Shu Yingtong tapped the table and thought for a moment, "Give me five stones."

The stones must be bonded with glutinous rice mortar to withstand years of damp erosion, but other materials can be used to build villages.

"Okay, send someone to deliver it in two days."

The two discussed some other matters, An Xingzhou got up to leave, and suddenly remembered that there was another person in the room.

"Uh...that, Mr. Jing..."

"unimportant."

An Xingzhou choked, the door was closed, and if she didn't open it, he couldn't force it...

Yuan county benefactors are still very important.

I had no choice but to stand at the door of the room and say loudly: "Mr. Jing, Mr. An still has official business, so I will catch up with you sometime."

"Go and go~"

After An Xingzhou left, Shu Yingtong was stopped when he entered the door holding the blueprint.

"Tongtong, show me the blueprint?"

He lay there with his face up, with a clean and gentle smile.

Like the surface of the lake under the sun in spring, the gentle wind blows, slightly rippling, gently blowing and wrinkling the clouds reflected on the water.

There is a pool of spring water in the eyes, which is clear and pure but full of spring colors, and the thick eyelashes are slashed, causing layers of ripples.

When Shu Yingtong lowered his gaze, he saw a pair of shimmering and dewy eyes fawning over him.

Pursing the corners of his lips, he was a little speechless.

He is like a big well-behaved dog.

Sitting on the edge of the bed holding the blueprint, "Lie down and look at it?"

"The neck will cramp..."

Looking at the drawings while lying on your stomach, and you can't use your elbows to prop up your upper body, then you have to have a strong neck to hold your head up and look at the drawings...

As soon as the drawings were put aside, Shu Yingtong kicked his shoes on the bed with a blank expression, grabbed his own pillow and leaned against the wooden wall at the head of the bed.

He leaned over and turned him over to lie on his back, and put the wristband on his back to pick him up.

"Girl, this brown sugar water..." Huiru stood at the door with the teapot in her hand, her pretty face turned red and her eyes sparkled brightly.

The girl half-kneeled on the bed and hugged Mr. Jing, who was only wearing his underwear, the two of them leaning on each other...

It's one thing to know the reason, but that doesn't stop her from thinking about it...

"Don't drink, close the door." Seeing her excited expression, Shu Yingtong turned black.

"oh oh."

When the door was closed, Shu Yingtong frowned and picked up Jing Yunyan's upper body and dragged her to the bed.

Seeing her cautious appearance, Jing Yunyan put his palms on the bed and tried his best to cooperate with her.

After helping him to sit upright, Shu Yingtong put the drawing on his lap, "Look for yourself, I'll go out for a while."

"Okay, come back early."

Jing Yunyan had already been attracted by the drawings, but his casual answer made Shu Yingtong turn his head and look at him a little awkwardly.

Except for the night when he was besieged by killers, it was rare to see his calm and introverted appearance at this moment.

The delicate and elegant brows were dignified, and the quiet and deep eyes were staring at the drawing intently.

The color of her lips after the injury and blood loss was a little pale, and when she was not smiling, she pursed her lips slightly, and the lines at the corners of her mouth had a hint of coldness.

This is the real him, right?

Shu Yingtong looked away, thinking of the exorbitant price of glutinous rice, he had to choose another building material.

"Jing Yunyan."

"Ah."

"I want the slag left after iron smelting, the more the better."

"Ok?"

Jing Yunyan, whose attention was drawn back by Shu Yingtong, flashed his eyes, and looked up with a smile, "Iron smelting is managed by the Foundry Bureau, our hands are not so long."

"I believe you."

Shu Yingtong didn't bother to refute those scenes, the feudal king didn't give up on the throne, and the minerals in his hand could honestly be handed over to the state treasury?
Hoarding soldiers, hoarding food, hoarding weapons is their reasonable operation.

"Oh~ I'm so touched~ What should I do, I can't refuse your request at all. By the way, what do you want so much slag for?"

"cement."
