The Bai family father and son really did what they said. No matter how hot it was in the iron ore factory, they never took off their masks except for drinking water and eating.

Even if other people in the mine laughed at the two of them for being sissy, they would not listen.

Could this be a mask?It's the daughter/sister's love for the two of them.

"You don't understand. It was done by my daughter, who said it was dust-proof. If you want me to say that my daughter is careful."

"What do you know? It was made by my sister, who said it was for filtering iron filings. Why are you envious?"

Whenever everyone is curious about the masks on the faces of the Bai family father and son, the father and son can't help showing off, which will naturally arouse everyone's envy.

In the past two days, Xiao Fuyuan asked the third brother to bring the gauze from the shop, and she improved it by drawing and drawing, so that Qiu Niang and her old mother could make light and breathable gauze masks.

The gauze in the middle acts as a filter element to further isolate iron filings and dust.

Bai Muban and Bai Dazhuang are no longer bored by wearing masks while working in the mine.

It is said that the mine is indeed full of dust all day long, and watering every day still does not work.

It is indeed inevitable for the workers to inhale the dust, and coughing sounds one after another in the village after work every day.

But Bai Muban and Bai Dazhuang didn't have to worry about coughing since they wore masks.

Doctor Zhang and Langzhong Wu carry the decoction that eliminates phlegm to the mine every day, and let the villagers drink it. They also distribute pig blood every day to be stewed for the people who work in the mine, saying that it is to remove dust. crumbs.

When Doctor Zhang went to the mountain to deliver medicine, he saw that the masks worn by Bai Muban and Bai Dazhuang were very special.

Not stuffy, breathing as usual, but can filter out iron filings and dust, only these two people in the whole mine don't cough.

"Brother Bai, how did you come up with this method?" Imperial doctor Zhang was very excited, and asked Bai Dazhuang non-stop.

He remembered that during the autopsy, Wu Zuo would cover his mouth and nose with a coarse cloth in order to prevent the smell of the corpse from spreading germs.

In the same way, in order to prevent iron filings and dust from breathing into the lungs, an autopsy method can also be used.However, autopsies do not require continuous work like mine workers. It is unrealistic for mine workers to cover their mouths and noses with towels. First, it delays mining, and second, heavy and stuffy towels make people prone to hypoxia for a long time.

In comparison, the masks worn by the Bai family father and son are light and breathable, and can block iron filings and dust.

"How could I have the ability to come up with this idea?" Bai Dazhuang waved his hands and said proudly, "My sister came up with the idea."

Then he took out the new mask in his arms and showed it to Doctor Zhang: "My sister said to change it in half a day."

Doctor Zhang took the mask that Bai Dazhuang had just taken out, held it in his hand and observed it carefully.Upon hearing that Xiao Fuyuan came up with the idea, Imperial Physician Zhang was very excited and blurted out: "Really?"

This method is really wonderful. The outside is a piece of cloth, and the inside is filled with gauze for filtering, and then tied to the ear with a rope, which is light and does not delay work.

Wonderful!

What do you mean?
Bai Dazhuang was not happy.

How dare you question your own sister.

"Mr. Zhang, I don't like to hear your words. What's the truth? My sister is so smart, why can't she figure it out?" Bai Dazhuang said bluntly.

Doctor Zhang quickly explained: "I didn't mean that."

"You question my sister's intelligence." Bai Dazhuang unceremoniously snatched the mask from Imperial Physician Zhang. He originally wanted to give him one, but it seemed unworthy.

Doctor Zhang: "..."

Although Doctor Zhang was beaten up by Bai Dazhuang, he was still very excited. He felt that masks could be promoted to the whole village, so that everyone who worked in the mine would not be disturbed by iron filings and dust.

So I came to Lao Bai's house and talked to Xiao Fuyuan about the mask in person.

"How did Xiao Yuanbao come up with it?" Doctor Zhang asked
"Just thinking about it casually." Of course, it is impossible for Xiao Fuyuan to say that he saw it in the hospital.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhen relieved Xiao Fuyuan, and said with a smile: "I usually play with cloth embroidery when I have nothing to do. The child's brain is busy, so he sewed it into a mask. Her father and his brother put it on just right. It's a crooked one."

Mrs. Zhen pulled Xiao Fuyuan by her side, rubbed her head, and said dotingly.

Now that Mrs. Zhen has closed the coffin and concluded that it is "a crooked attack", it is not easy for Dr. Zhang to continue to pursue it.After all, Xiao Fuyuan put on a mask and didn't avoid others.

"Xiao Yuanbao's crooked attack solves a difficult problem. You know that people who inhale iron filings and dust into their lungs in mines are prone to get sick. I have seen some coal miners suffocate to death due to the accumulation of media dust in their lungs in medical records. This mask Although it is small, it has a great effect, and the gauze inside can block the iron filings and dust very well." Doctor Zhang looked at Xiao Fuyuan with an excited face, so let's do a few more crooked strikes.

"I don't know if the mask invented by Xiao Yuanbao can be told to others, so that everyone in our village who goes to work in the iron mine can wear it." Doctor Zhang asked.

Mrs. Zhen said: "Physician Zhang also knows that my husband and the boss wear masks to work, and everyone in the village has seen them. The masks are not difficult to sew. Why don't others wear them?"

"Because the mask looks simple, but it is also a piece of cotton cloth and a piece of gauze on the outside. The cloth ends of every household in the village are very precious. They are used to mend clothes and starch shoe uppers. I don't have the extra heart to use it as a mask." Zhen sighed. Said, "This mask is not enough to sew one, and our family changes it every two days. It is too extravagant for a farmer to throw a piece of cloth every two days."

What Mrs. Zhen said was something that Dr. Zhang hadn't considered, but it was the real situation in Shenshu Village.

For the villagers, any piece of rag has to be saved up. If you ask everyone to take a piece of cloth to sew masks every few days, don't even think about it, let alone pay extra for gauze.

Everyone knows that breathing iron filings and dust into the lungs is uncomfortable, but even so, it is estimated that people are not willing to sew masks.

"Then I will report this to General Meng." Doctor Zhang finally said.

Zhen didn't say clearly that the masks should be distributed by the government, and besides, isn't mining now just for the imperial court's weapons and irons.

Sure enough, just as Zhen thought, Meng Zhixu listened to Dr. Zhang's analysis of the pros and cons of workers wearing masks for mining, and then decided to have the military allocate funds to organize manual sewing of masks.

So this task fell on Qiuniang. After all, Xiao Fuyuan came up with the mask idea, but Qiuniang sewed and improved the final shape.

Moreover, the task fell on Qiuniang not for nothing, but with wages.

Not only the iron ore factory in the village needs it, but also factories and mines in other places.

The cotton cloth and gauze used to sew the masks were ordered directly from Bai Sanzhuang's shop. The Bai family once again looked at Xiao Fuyuan with admiration, and they were able to bring in large orders for Sanzhuang's shop as soon as they started their brains.

Bai Sanzhuang was even more excited, he didn't expect his shop to become a "military supply" material supplier.

Qiuniang was very happy to receive this task, she felt that she could finally make money for Lao Bai's family.

Due to too many tasks, the old lady Bai organized the village aunt and daughter-in-law to sew together, and the wages were calculated according to the amount of sewing.

The aunts and daughters-in-law were collectively excited. After all, it is a great joy to make money to subsidize the family without exporting.

Everyone praised the good idea of ​​Xiao Fuyuan, the village owner of Furong, and wished to confess her.
