"It's not expensive, it should be long. Give me a thousand."
Li Zhixian watched for a while, and when he saw that he could buy it, he asked for a thousand pieces first.
The head of the village shook his head: "Not that many, a total of 3,000, and there are 22 villages in this county, and each village has 100.
Five hundred more will be given to the palace, three hundred will be left, and three hundred will be given to the magistrate. We will wait until something better is made next time. "
He said it was out of stock and Hanhan was too busy.
Hanhan was looking for stones and said he could burn colored glaze to make cups and other things.
Fortunately, the stones, sand, limestone and other things Hanhan said he was looking for were all nearby. The place with the most stones was Fengyang, where Zhongdu is now built.
It's too far. You have to cross the Yangtze River and go north, so you don't need so much.
He was also busy asking people to make bricks, using Guanyin soil and a kind of sand, drying the bricks and sending them to be burned.
He said that the fired refractory bricks would be transported back to the village to build a small kiln.
The children in the village helped Hanhan for fun.
In the past, when there was life in the village, Hanhan needed help and strength.
After buying a big animal last year, I no longer have to be a half-animal.
People in the village are also not as tired as animals, and they all use oxen, horses, donkeys and mules to cultivate the land.
This year we can buy a lot more big animals, have food rations, and after harvesting rice, we can buy straw from each village.
Next spring, the wheat will be harvested and there will be wheat straw to feed.
How could Li Zhixian and others know the plan of the head of Xiaqiu Village? People in other villages were happy, but the magistrate sighed.
There is no problem for the twenty-two villages in Xuancheng County. Ningguo Mansion is not only limited to Xuancheng County, but also the largest county where it is governed.
Magistrate Song would be in trouble if he brought back three hundred pieces of something called test strips.
Other villagers got the news and got the martial arts secrets, and worked harder.
When it was time to eat at noon, he still shouted that he was not hungry and could continue sowing.
Unfortunately, the animals couldn't bear it. They were pulled in front, and by the time of meal they couldn't walk anymore.
Lunch was mutton soup and pancakes as the staple food. There was no pepper, but sweet garlic and Sichuan pepper noodles.
I bought pepper in the village and kept it in the drug store for medicinal purposes.
There are both black and white peppers. Black pepper is picked immature and dried, while white pepper is naturally peeled and dried after being ripe.
In fact, it’s not that you can’t afford it, pepper and rock sugar are about the same price.
It's fine for the villagers to eat secretly, but for people from other villages to use, they don't dare to put it in the soup.
Sichuan peppercorns are already pretty good. People from other villages put some in the mutton soup bowl, stir it up, and take a sip with a look of happiness on their faces.
Just after I drank it, the boats came. There were three boats, three feet long, which was larger than the two-foot boats docked in the village.
The chief pulled Hanhan over to greet him. When the ship docked, Zhou Zong jumped down and said, "Chief, I have sent you some medicinal materials. Please take stock of them."
"No hurry, let's eat first." Li Chang showed a sincere smile. So many medicinal materials? It seems that there is no need to buy it everywhere in the village.
The villagers came to help carry the goods, and they had more medicine options when they got sick.
"Move quickly, there is mutton soup to drink today." Zhou Zong greeted the people following the boat.
"Okay~~" cheers rang out, especially the boatmen.
Coming against the current, they didn't want to travel hard and were tired.
Someone told them that if they arrived before noon, there would be delicious food. If they arrived late, they would probably only be able to eat a bowl of rice or rice noodles.
With a skeptical attitude, they still speeded up, but they didn't expect it was mutton soup.
When they were moved down, they followed the instructions to wash their hands and take their seats. Every boatman smiled widely.
There is half a bowl of mutton and haggis in the bowl, and then add chopped green onion and coriander, which is more than half a bowl of dry food.
The villagers scooped up mutton soup with a layer of mutton oil on top. It smelled so good!
With the pancakes included, one meal would probably cost two days' wages.
Zhou Zong came to the main table and smiled at Hanhan first to say hello.
And I told myself to be careful with my chopsticks when eating, and don't steal other people's food.
Sitting at the main table with him were three people from Taiyuan Hospital. One was the hospital judge of Zhengwupin, the other was the ambassador of Huimin Pharmacy starting this year, and the ambassador of the herbal medicine library.
The main table has lamb stir-fried with green onions, grilled lamb face, braised lamb chops, and lamb tendons.
"I see you every time I come back." Zhou Zong greeted the four people from Li Zhi County.
"Fate, it's all fate." Li Zhixian responded with a smile.
"Are you four still used to staying here? You have to practice more on weekdays. Why are you so fat?"
Zhou Zong talked to Zhu Taiyi to Zhu Taisi again, and the flesh was obviously visible on the faces of the four of them, which was not acceptable.
Zhu Taiyi felt aggrieved: "He works very hard to help the village. Who makes the village eat well? There is nothing we can do."
"It's as if the prince doesn't give you food. You should learn more from the chief. You can learn 10% of the chief's skills. It will be of great use!"
Zhou Zong reminded them that you have a mission, find an expert, and found Mo Shengzhang.
"Yes, the manager is very capable." Zhu Taier responded, but he felt even more aggrieved.
The village has been visited, there are 552 people in total, and no one is an expert.
Instead, I found that the children in the village were being taught knowledge. The children could recite the Thousand-Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, and Three-Character Classic.
There are also multiplication, addition, and subtraction formulas, as well as practice writing and abacus.
Last time I asked Hanhan what one plus one equals, Hanhan actually knew it was two.
There are experts in the village! A fool can teach you something, that’s awesome!
Thinking about it, he suddenly asked: "Hanhan, what is two plus two?"
Zhu Wentian raised his head and looked at the other person, thinking, "Are you free?"
I'll eat a meal and you toss me, how about I give you a math question and see if you can answer it?
"Eh? Huh? One, one..." Everyone saw Hanhan put down his chopsticks and counting his fingers.
When counting to five, two more were put down, and another was put down, leaving two.
"Two, plus, one, two, one, two, three, three..."
Just when everyone couldn't bear it any longer, the fool in their eyes finally said the correct answer.
"Four, eh, four, two two four, hey hey hey hey!"
Zhu Wentian himself was exhausted and sweating, and his heart was tired. He had to lie to this group of people like a fool.
The chief quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped Hanhan's forehead: "Hanhan is awesome, yes, two plus two is four. This is our Hanhan. Haha!"
Others were equally surprised. The process was tortuous, but the result was wonderful.
Zhou Zong glared at Zhu Taier and raised his sleeves to wipe the sweat.
"Hmm! Hanhan, I, hehe!" Zhu Wentian cooperated again and lowered his head to drink the mutton soup.
Everyone drank the mutton soup slowly, and the people from other villages came in a hurry. It was useless no matter how fast they ate, because the animals were not finished yet!
Zhu Wentian also didn't speed up. The children would sleep for a long time this afternoon and were tired from picking up rice ears and catching grasshoppers.
More than half an hour later, someone else went to lead the animals to plant wheat.
Zhu Wentian still didn't leave the table. He wanted to wait for everyone to finish drinking and go to inspect the medicinal materials together.
The medicinal materials should come from the herbal medicine warehouse of Taiyuan Hospital. Medicinal materials should be found from all over the country and put into the herbal medicine warehouse.
There are Huimin Pharmacies in every state capital, and they are responsible for treating soldiers and civilians. The main reason is that the medicinal materials are cheap. If you really don’t have any money, you can give them to them for free.
Just like the medicine the village gave Wang Laowen's father, if the other party couldn't afford it, then there was no need for money.
Generally, the people in the Tai Hospital are from medical families. Currently, there is no dedicated imperial doctor. It will have to wait for three years.
After everyone finished eating, three people from the Imperial Hospital went to the chief to receive them. Zhou Zong followed, and Zhu Wentian was waiting for this moment.
