Chang Siguo opened the door after morning practice, and it was already bright outside.
The wind stopped and the snow stopped, and a faint cold air curled up on the roof.
Ice pillars hang unevenly under the eaves, crystal clear, reflecting the sky and the morning color, which is really beautiful.
In the yard, the little maid Qing Ya was wearing a thick green coat and a straight skirt, breathing white air from her mouth, and was digging out the snow with a shovel.
"Good morning, Mr. Chang."
Hearing the voice, the little maid bowed and saluted, then stood up quickly and said, "Mr. Chang, I've made breakfast and will bring it out now." She put down the shovel and ran to the east wing along the dug green brick path.
"Uh, no, I have something to go out to."
Chang Si was too busy and called Qing Ya. He found it inconvenient to be alone in the yard.
The little maid turned back and said with a smile, "My master told me before going out yesterday that he was not at home, so you can come to the house for dinner."
Chang Siguo watched the little maid running up the steps, and then slowly put down his arm that was holding up the movement to stop him. After breakfast, he quickly went out for a walk. There was a holiday tomorrow, and he had to go to the shops in the city to buy some drinks, preserved fruits, etc. Then entertain friends and guests who come to your door.
The little maid laid out the hot steamed dumplings, steamed buns, porridge and side dishes, said hello, and went out to shovel the snow again.
Chang Siguo finished his breakfast slowly and said hello to Qingya. He held on to the handle of the knife at his waist. He did not wear the cumbersome bow bag and quiver, and walked out of the hospital to the right towards the city.
After the heavy snowfall, the air is especially fresh and cold.
The sun has not yet come out, and the fog is thinly spread in the city. The snow reflects the light blue of the sky, making it look particularly quiet and elegant.
Chang Siguo suddenly noticed that there were rows of skid marks about five feet wide in the middle of the street. The footprints on the snow had been plowed smooth and flat. The backside of the squeezed track was very blue.
"The sleigh is made."
Chang Siguo twitched the corner of his mouth and turned to the left in the direction of the Street Construction Supervision Office.
There were groups of soldiers running in the distance, leaving a group at intervals to shovel snow and clear the road under the command of their respective commanders.
After heavy snowfall, the road surface is tight and the snow is very slippery and difficult to melt, so it must be cleared in time.
As I was walking leisurely, the thick coarse cloth curtains of the street shops were opened, and several people came out with the steaming heat. One of them waved and greeted warmly, "What a coincidence, Brother Chang, it's time for breakfast."
Chang Siguao turned his head and looked, it was the elegant Liu Zhirou, her complexion was much better than when they met yesterday, her face was as rosy as if she had been smeared with powder.
"It's Brother Liu, it's been used."
Chang Siguo noticed that the other person's gaze on him was a little too intense, maybe it was his misunderstanding. When he looked again, he saw a handsome man with a bright smile on his face and clear eyes, running towards him on the cleared gravel path.
With enthusiasm for hospitality, he gestured towards Commander Liu and the other two people behind Liu Zhirou.
Commander Liu still looked at him with a cold face. Although he had a few drinks together last night, he said he didn't mind at the table, but after getting off the table, he still went his own way. Chang thought about it and ignored him. However, the other two unfamiliar faces were a little flattered and hurriedly returned the favor.
"Brother Chang is going to the Production Supervision Department."
Liu Zhirou glanced at the end of the street not far away, smiled and had nothing to say. He was very familiar with the layout of Sihuang City.
Chang Si took a step away from the past. He was not used to being too close to a man, except during life and death fights. He nodded and asked, "Brother Liu, are you going back to the inn?"
The road to the inn ran counter to his destination, and he felt uncomfortable walking with a guy who was known for his calculations. He hoped that the guy who looked like a girl would get out of here.
"If you don't go to the inn, it would be too boring to stay here. I'll go with you to the Production Supervision Office."
Go and have fun
Chang Siguo really wanted to tell this familiar guy that we are not very familiar, okay?
The Production Supervision Office is not a place where you can play casually. There are many secrets in it.
In addition to the cultivators in this city, cultivators from the bandit army outside the city must have a warrant issued by the commander if they want to enter. Chang Siguo's current status cannot bring anyone into the construction supervision office.
Lao Dan's warm reception yesterday had another purpose, and the purpose has been achieved.
But when he saw Liu Zhirou walking forward like no one else and beckoning him to come with her, Chang Siguo stopped talking.
We'll see, if he can't get into the Production Supervision Office, he can't help, so he can only watch the joke quietly.
The most kind person is to not laugh out loud in front of someone's face.
However, when they arrived at the Supervision Office, Liu Zhirou showed the concierge a large ink-colored wooden sign with a large carved cup rim. After inspection, the concierge politely returned it with both hands and signaled to the guard to let him go. He also accompanied the three attendants behind without asking any questions. Let in.
Liu Zhirou accepted the token, stepped through the door, and explained with a smile, "Liu has done some research on the tools for detecting objects, and has spent half a year at the General Administration of Construction Supervision in the capital."
Chang Siguo said "Oh" and nodded in understanding.
This guy really knows a little bit about everything, and he can hold an official position in the General Administration of Manufacturing Supervision.
There is a bamboo shed set up in the courtyard of the Supervision Office. The shed is covered with dark coarse cloth to protect it from wind and snow. There are ten groups of simple carpentry tables arranged in an orderly manner under the bamboo shed. Each group is divided into open wooden tables. Those making rough materials, planing wooden boards, assembling mortise and tenon joints, etc., turned out to be simple workshop assembly lines, with lanterns hanging above the heads of each group.
Countless craftsmen were busy working, and there were stoves near each platform. The snow on the ground turned into mud. On the left side of the open-air snow, dozens of finished sleds were piled up.
Chang Siguo was slightly surprised, this was so efficient.
Then I saw the tattoos on the foreheads of many craftsmen and helpers, and then I suddenly realized that the craftsmen from the Thief Army camp also joined. No wonder it is so efficient. There is strength in numbers.
There was a steady stream of horse-drawn carriages bringing in fresh wood from the side door.
Chang Siguo no longer understands carpentry work, and secretly shakes his head. In order to save time and catch up with the progress, these sleds made of wood that were not dried thoroughly are considered one-time products and cannot be used a second time. They will crack when the weather is slightly hot.
The sleds are simple and rough in style, with different forms, including double cabins and three cabins. The heads are tilted upward, and the parts connected to the snow are riveted with polished copper sheets.
"Hey, this is Sesshu"
Liu Zhirou, the official health inspector of the General Administration of Construction Supervision in the capital, stared at the unique and unique Sesshu with widened eyes. She was so surprised that she didn't know what to say.
He is a connoisseur of goods, and he can tell at a glance that the snowshu in front of him has greatly improved its speed and performance at the expense of beautiful appearance.
I didn't expect that the manufacturing supervision office in this wild and remote area would have such talents. I thought the snow boat was his original creation.
It's a slap in the face, but this thing in front of you doesn't seem to be called a snowshoe.
Leaving Chang Siguo, a rough man who only knows how to kill people but not to judge things, Liu Zhirou couldn't wait to run into the yard, dripping with mud and stepping on sawdust and shavings. In just a few steps, his exquisite boots and the hem of his white robe were covered with mud and water. He ran to In the snow on the left, he picked up his clothes and straddled himself into a two-foot-tall double-cabin sled without any fuss. He leaned inside and knocked around, studying it carefully.
Naturally, Commander Liu and the other three followed lightly. They were not interested in the simple-looking snow boat.
Without thinking about it, he passed through the passage left in the middle of the shed and looked towards the unobstructed opposite side.
Shan Liwen was walking out of the backyard with General Fang, who was inspecting the Manufacturing Supervision Department, followed by several supervisory craftsmen.
At a glance, General Fang saw the big black man standing on the steps opposite. He waved and said with a smile, "Chang Siguo, you have a great brain. The Sesshu you conceived has made great contributions. Let me tell you how to reward you."
Chang Siguo glanced at Liu Zhirou, who was looking at him with sawdust and white ash on his white fur clothes. His eyes were full of shock and disbelief. He smiled secretly in his heart. His feet barely touched the ground as he floated through the bluestone passage in the atrium and stood at the foot of the steps. He handed over to General Fang and said, "General, I'm flattering you. My subordinates are just picking up others' wisdom and making slight improvements. They don't deserve any great credit."
Shan Liwen also saw Liu Zhirou and whispered a few words to the general who looked confused.
Hei Wa admired Hei Wa's upright attitude of not being greedy for credit or seeking credit.
If he hadn't been there last night and witnessed Heiwa sketching the snowshoe with charcoal, simplifying the complexities, refining step by step, and discussing improvements with the old craftsmen, he probably wouldn't have believed that this snowshoe was of the same origin as that snowshoe.
The difference between the two is really huge.
If it were him, he should have followed the general's tone and taken the credit. ,,,
