Chapter 37 Don't Want Your Ears
After Lin Xuan arranged for the blacksmith, he described the kang to the masons and asked them to make one for their own house first.

Pan Kang is not difficult, as long as you pay attention to the passage of hot air, the rest is not difficult.

Freeing up the place where the original bed was, Lin Xuan began to direct the masons to work on the kang.

Zhang Qing got the news that his son had brought back a group of masons and blacksmiths. Out of curiosity, he came to Lin Xuan's yard to see what he was doing again.

When I came to Lin Xuan's room and took a look, I saw Lin Xuan with his back to her, directing a group of people to make holes in the house.

How can people live in a good house with a hole?

For Lin Xuan's nonsense, Zhang Qing's teeth itch.

Chunyue and Yuhe couldn't help with things like pankang, so Lin Xuan asked them to watch. When Zhang Qing came in, they had already seen it, and wanted to remind their young master, but they were stared at by Zhang Qing. , had to give up.

"Xuan'er, you are so strong that you dare to demolish the house!" Zhang Qing walked behind Lin Xuan, grabbed his ear, and said angrily.

"Ah, mother, why are you here? It hurts, hurts...let go."

In fact, Zhang Qing didn't use much force, but Lin Xuan still hurriedly begged for mercy.

Zhang Qing also felt sorry for his son. As soon as he heard Lin Xuan begging for mercy, he immediately let go of his hand and said, "You still know it hurts. Why are you demolishing the house? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, your ears will be damaged today." Don't ask for it."

"Mother, sit down and I'll tell you." Lin Xuan pulled Zhang Qing aside, helped her sit down, and squeezed her shoulders to please her.

"Stop flattering, what's going on, tell me quickly." Zhang Qing didn't listen to him at all.

"Mother, it's getting colder and colder now. I want to change the room so that it won't be cold anymore." Seeing that he couldn't be fooled, Lin Xuan could only explain.

"Xuan'er, are you okay?" Zhang Qing looked at Lin Xuan worriedly.

"I'm fine." Lin Xuan wondered, why did he suddenly ask him.

"The house has been like this since ancient times, how can it be changed and it will not be cold? Xuan'er, is your head injury still not healed?" Zhang Qing shed tears.

Only then did he realize that Zhang Qing was saying that he had a mental problem.

Lin Xuan was depressed, but seeing Zhang Qing crying, he quickly comforted him at a loss: "Mother, I'm really fine, you can trust me once."

"But if you punch a hole in the house, it will only make it colder. How can it make it warmer?" Zhang Qing still didn't believe it. The house was ventilated, so how could it be warm? She still felt that Lin Xuan's mind was not good enough.

"Mother, that hole is only temporary, and it will disappear after it's done." Lin Xuan explained.

Fearing that Zhang Qing would not believe it, Lin Xuan explained the principle of the kang to her.

"Is this really possible?" Zhang Qing was confused.

"That's right, I even asked someone to build a stove. When it's all done, I won't feel cold at all. I will also install one for my mother when the time comes." Lin Xuan said with high spirits.

Zhang Qing was very happy about his son's filial piety, and said with a smile, "As you said, it's too much charcoal. You can just make one yourself. Mother doesn't want it. Mother is used to it."

According to what Lin Xuan said, the stove needs to be burning all day long, and the kang also needs firewood.

This is too much consumption. Although the Lin family has some money, she is reluctant to waste it like this.

But for Lin Xuan's waste, she didn't say anything. The son should burn some charcoal for fear of coldness. Isn't the family's money reserved for him?

From Zhang Qing's words, he felt the deep maternal love.

But he doesn't use charcoal!

Lin Xuan quickly explained: "Mother, I'm going to use coal for the stove, not charcoal. Coal is worthless."

"How can we use coal? That stuff is poisonous and cannot be used." Zhang Qing said hastily.

"Mother, the coal is poisonous, as long as the poisonous gas is released, I have a way, how can I make fun of my own life." Lin Xuan said with a smile.

When the ancients used coal, the doors and windows were tightly closed, so it would be strange if nothing happened.

Zhang Qing didn't understand this either, but seeing Lin Xuan's confident expression, he had no choice but to say: "Then you must pay attention to safety, if you can't do it, use charcoal, our family is rich."

"Okay, okay, mother, I know, you can rest assured." Lin Xuan promised.

After sending Zhang Qing away, Lin Xuan called Lin Ping and told him, "Go and buy some coal mines, as long as the price is right."

"My lord, the coal mine is useless at all, why buy that thing?" Lin Ping said in confusion.

"I'm of great use, you'll know in the future." Lin Xuan said.

Although Lin Xuan was puzzled, but Lin Xuan ordered him to do it.

Seeing the masons working on the kang in full swing, Lin Xuan was very happy. He felt chilly every day when he slept, and when the kang was finished, it would no longer be cold.

The only pity is that even if the heated kang is ready, it will still take a few days.

……

The original room could no longer sleep, so Lin Xuan could only make do with other rooms at night.

The next day, I completed the usual sign-in, without any accidents, and was rewarded with another pack of cigarettes.

After the meal, Lin Xuan stared at the masons at work, so that he could solve any problems in time.

While busy, Chunyue brought Zhao Min over, Lin Xuan asked in surprise, "Uncle Zhao, why are you here? Is there something wrong with the restaurant?"

"My lord, there is nothing wrong with the restaurant. The main reason is that the bean sprouts you sent yesterday have been sold out. I wonder if there are any more?" Zhao Min asked.

"It's gone so soon? Did you sell it cheap?" Lin Xuan was a little surprised, it was dozens of catties of bean sprouts.

Zhao Min said excitedly: "No, the young master told me to sell it more expensive. I set a price of [-] yuan per plate, but there are still many people ordering it, and it will be sold out soon."

Lin Xuan didn't expect it to be so expensive and sold out so quickly. It seems that there are quite a lot of rich people in Chang'an.

What is the concept of a hundred cash? Now a liter of rice is only five cash. According to the calculation of later generations, it is five catties of rice.

You can buy [-] catties of rice for [-] Wen. Of course, the price of rice has risen in winter, but it is still no problem to buy [-] catties for [-] Wen.

"I see. If someone is ordering, you can tell them that it will be ready in two days." Lin Xuan said.

Yesterday he asked Chunyue and the others to start making bean sprouts, but judging from the current situation, it was not enough.

After dismissing Zhao Min, Lin Xuan said to Chunyue: "You are looking for a few people and handing them over to grow bean sprouts. You must ensure that at least one hundred catties of bean sprouts will come out every day."

There are only a few servants in the family, and the rest are sold to the Lin family, so he is not afraid of leaking.

"Yes, servant girl is going now." Chunyue said.

Just leave the bean sprouts to Chunyue and the others, and his main focus is on the kang.

Making money is just a pastime for him, and enjoyment is the purpose.
