Chapter 85-Li Dongzhu, please say “Yes” (third more)

Winter and summer Samsara is mortal, the first snow falls to the dust. I don’t feel warm when I wrap my clothes tightly, and the running water is cold.

The four people simply ate breakfast. The Queen drank milk, ate eggs, and a piece of lean meat with soy sauce.

When she was in the palace, she let people go to heaven and earth to fetch food according to the nutritional mix written by Li Yi.

When she arrived at Zhuangzi, she didn’t have to worry about it. Uncle could eat whatever she arranged.

When the meal was over, the sky changed, and little snow floated.

Song De came over: “Proprietor, do you start heating up?”

“It’s still early. After a few days, will the coal reserves be enough?” Li Yi looked at the sky, and didn’t want to use the heating now. The room was too hot and became angry.

“Enough to burn until this time next year, connected to the kiln.” Song De said that he was doing a good job.

Coal is cheap, and ordinary people don’t use it, so it burns wood.

Zhuangzi hired people to dig and transport, but only paid for manpower, but no money for coal.

“Brother Yi, it’s better to ship more. After this winter, more coal will be used.” Li Chengqi thought of something and said to Li Yi.



“Not bad.” Li Longji smiled: “I heard that the Shaofu Supervisor has made many stoves according to the drawings you drew by Brother Yi. There is snow right now. It is a good time to promote the Fire Wall Road.”

Li Yi understood that the pictures he gave to the two Big Brothers actually entered the palace.

He also thought of something: “Doesn’t it all use lump coal? What should I do with pulverized coal?”

“Uncle is talking about charcoal blocks? I have to use blocks, so the powder won’t burn.”

There was already a fire in the queen’s harem, and she was afraid of freezing her child.

“Oh my God!” Li Yi patted his forehead.

Greeting Song De: “Quickly, bring the coal powder from the place where the coal is piled, and look for a craftsman, a good carpenter, bring a few wooden boards, and send me here.”

After a while, a basket of pulverized coal that had fallen off naturally from the place where the coal was put was transported.

The craftsman made a rectangular frame according to what Li Yi said.

The pulverized coal is poured into water and becomes slime.

Li Yi rolled up his sleeves, put the wooden frame on the ground, hugged the slime into the frame, and slapped his hands on it.

I kept flattening, grabbing the two sides of the frame and trying to lift it up, and a coal billet like a brick came out.

“Dage, third brother, and sister-in-law, look at this, it can be burnt even if it’s dried in the sun, or you can use a dough to make a cake, or use a dustpan to shake the briquettes.”

Li Yi introduced that he didn’t want everyone to grab lump coal with him. Why use bright lump coal for his own home? How good is it?

The maid next to him brought water to Li Yi to wash his hands, and the three of Li Longji looked at Li Yi and wanted to laugh.

They guessed what Li Yi meant, and at the critical moment, there was an immediate solution.

The question is, why do others have to make their own work? No money is needed to dig coal.

“It costs money to burn firewood. There are many people and few mines, and coal powder is piled up. It is always used.” Li Yi said to the three people, taking a look at Song De.

Song De nodded, expressing his understanding, and ran away, looking for someone to bring back a large amount of coal.

Li Longji thought about it: “I’ll see it later.”

He wanted to discuss with the minister whether or not to collect the money for coal mining.

“Dage, after the charcoal is burned, it can be used to make bricks, burn cement, or pave roads. It’s the use of charcoal slag to pave a good road.”

Li Yi gave another idea, hoping that Dage would continue to use his status to persuade the court.

“It’s so?” Li Chengqi said to write it down.

The four people strolled in the snow again, but Zhuangzi was still busy, and there was always something to do.

The rice has not been cut, the crabs continue to be caught, the ingredients for making drunken crabs are purchased and made.

Walking to the edge of Bashui, a group of people from Zhangjia Village went out from the shallow water to fish for hemp.

After harvesting the hemp, it will be refilled in the water. When the retting is almost done, it will be taken out.

Next, we need to scrape the hemp to remove the shell. The refined hemp is not twine.

In the previous process of harvesting hemp, the hand was easily injured. Just break the position of the hemp rod, make a hole, and swipe the hand up and down along the hole, and the hemp will come down.

In this process, it’s like scratching a hand on a piece of paper, an accident is a hole.

Fortunately, people who chop hemp will wrap cloth on their fingers.

Avoid problems.

The hemp after being refilled should continue to be scraped when it is wet.

Hold the knife in one hand, the blade is upward, and the thumb is wrapped around the cloth to press the blade, and the linen is pulled out between the blade and the thumb.

People in Zhangjia Village were fishing for hemp from the water while standing on the shore to scrape the hemp on the spot. The children also helped.

“Yeah!” a twelve or thirteen-year-old child yelled, with his thumb tucked into his mouth.

“Uncle his hand is injured.” Queen Wang said quickly.

Without Li Yi’s voice, the court lady Cui Liu ran over, brought the child over, and Qing Song unloaded the medical box on her back.

Li Yi raised the child’s right hand to look, wiped it with alcohol cotton, and the child grinned.

“It’s okay, the wound is less than one centimeter, it’s not deep, and it doesn’t need to be stitched.” Li Yi said, wrapping gauze.

“Don’t touch the water recently. Take it down to see the situation in two days. Remember to find me.” Li Yirou said to the child.

The child looked into his eyes and seemed to be making a decision.

After a few breaths, the child clenched his fist with his left hand and took a deep breath: “Lord Li, they all say you are the best, you can do everything, right?”

Li Yi shook his head: “No, the more you get, the more ignorant you will find yourself.”

“Then can you think of a way to make us shave faster? Every year, people hurt their fingers, some get fever, and then die.” The child pleaded and looked forward to it.

Li Longji looked at Li Yi and waited for the omnipotent brother Yi to say ‘Yes’.

“Yes.” Li Yi said what Li Longji was expecting.

He turned his head and said to Brown Rock, “Look for a craftsman, and ask for a long stool, a few pieces of wood, two hemp blades, and two pieces of plain leather.”

Li Yi said to the child again: “I can only make a simple one now, and it is too much trouble to make a better one.”

The child smiled: “I knew Dongzhu Li could.”

After speaking, he turned and ran to the other side, shouting as he ran: “Lee Dongzhu has a good thing, a good thing for scratching.”

The three of Li Longji also smiled.

Li Chengqi patted Li Yi’s shoulder, and Queen Wang’s hand was naturally placed on Li Yi’s head and rubbed.

“Brother Yi, you never disappoint.” Li Longji sighed.

“One day it may not be possible.” Li Yi retired his hair.

“It must be God forbid, heaven-defying.” Li Longji positioned like this.

As long as he doesn’t offend Tianwei, he can do anything. If he can’t do it, he can’t do anything. When manpower is poor.

In a short time, all the craftsmen and things were brought over by the brown rock.

Li Yi began to command.

A wooden stick was erected on each side of the bench, and a hole was split in the middle of the stick. A blade was placed on one side of the hole, and the other was padded with smooth leather.

The wooden sticks connect the two wood chips at right angles, and the openings on the outside of the wood chips are large and go into the gap.

Bring a strand of wet hemp, grab one end of the hemp, the other end easily slipped in through the big opening, and then pulled it.

The hemp enters from the big mouth, to the small mouth, it passes through the blade and the light skin. The light skin is elastic and tightly presses on the blade.

As soon as the hemp was pulled out, the hard shell was jammed.

With the other hand, he took a piece of hemp from the shell, put it in the other side of the opening, and then pumped it, and the whole piece was finished.

“This can be faster, mainly because it doesn’t hurt your hands. Everyone try it.” Li Yi said to a group of people who came to watch.

Everyone’s eyes brightened, and it was easier to scratch than a hand, mainly because the knife didn’t hurt the hand.
