Dressed as a family of cannon fodder, the villain brother is busy opening up wasteland

Li San stood at the front holding a butcher's knife, with a fierce expression on his face.

"What are you doing?"

The guards riding big horses with swords hanging on their waists: "..."

Who dares to stop them?Didn't you see the knives on their waists?

The leader held the reins with one hand and raised his other hand to signal the people behind him not to move. Then he said, "We are looking for the Wen family of Gutong Village."

Villagers, look at me and I look at you. There is so much noise outside. The Wen family didn’t even open the door. Is there anyone at home?

Someone whispered: "I seem to have seen Yaoyao and the Crown Prince going to the workshop."

"There is no one at home. Fortunately, there is no one. Who knows what these people do?"

The few people on the horse's side twitched their mouths when they heard the conversation. The leader calmed down a little, clasped his fists and said, "Everyone, we are here to see Prince Fu, and we ask for your help to point you in the direction."

It seemed that they realized that they had no ill intentions, and the villagers felt a little relieved. Li San looked at them, but did not point out the direction, but said: "Looking for the Crown Prince? Then you wait here, I will go and ask first." .”

After saying that, he handed the butcher's knife to the people next to him, told them to wait here, and ran towards the workshop.

The people waiting on horseback looked at these plainly dressed villagers. Some were holding hoes at home, some were holding kitchen knives, some were holding sticks, and the other was holding a butcher's knife.

They entered the village only a short time later, and these people came unexpectedly, which shows the unity of this village.

No wonder His Majesty chose such a place.

Not long after, Li San, who had left, came back, followed by a boy and a girl. When the people on the horse saw the boy walking in the front, they immediately dismounted and half-knelt on the ground.

"See Shizi."

Seeing that they really came to find Li Yi, the villagers subconsciously took a step back, and then hurriedly hid the 'weapons' they brought.

Li Yi had actually seen it a long time ago. Looking at the dozen or so people kneeling on the ground, he frowned slightly: "Did you disturb the villagers?"

Although the tone was calm, the kneeling people trembled slightly and replied: "Hui Shizi, my subordinates came in on horseback when they entered the village, so..."

Li San and others immediately explained in embarrassment: "Ha, what's that? Your Majesty, we just watched them rush in without asking. We were afraid they were bad guys. Wasn't this... the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple?"

Wen Yao smiled and joked: "Uncle Li, you can still say goodbye. They are from the palace. Thank you uncles and uncles. You can go and do your work."

"Hey, okay." Li San quickly waved his hand to let people disperse. He couldn't afford to offend the people in the palace, so he had better leave quickly.

After a while, everyone dispersed.

Li Yi glanced at the kneeling people, and after a while he said: "Get up, it won't be the same next time."

"Yes." Everyone got up.

Li Yi glanced at Wen Yao and then said, "Let's talk after we go in."

The two looked at each other and entered the door side by side. The guards behind them quickly followed, and a few others carried a few bags from their horses and followed.

When they arrived in the yard, Li Yi saw the bags they carried in and raised his eyebrows: "Did you find the things?"

Wen Yao did not look anxiously, but bumped Li Yi with her shoulder and winked at several people.

Li Yi understood instantly and introduced: "Yao Yao, this is Zhao Yi, the captain of the palace guard. Zhao Yi, this is Master Wen's daughter."

Zhao Yi immediately saluted respectfully: "Miss Wen."

Wen Yao nodded: "Brother Zhao."

After getting to know each other, Wen Yao looked at the bags they brought down and raised her eyebrows: "Brother Zhao, is this what you found?"

Zhao Yi nodded: "Yes, I found it according to the direction in the letter the prince sent to the prince, but I don't know if it is what the prince and the girl want."

Li Yi: "Open it and take a look."

Zhao Yi waved his hand and his men immediately opened the bundled bags. When he saw the dark stones inside, Li Yi frowned slightly, while Wen Yao's eyes lit up and she stepped forward to take it regardless of her dirty hands. One piece in hand.

"Yao Yao." Li Yi stepped forward to ask her to put it down, and took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, but Wen Yao waved her hands and said nonchalantly: "Just wash it in a while."

After saying that, he twisted the coal with his hand, got some coal powder and rubbed it between his fingers.

"Girl, is this it?"

Wen Yao nodded: "It should be, you will know after you try it." After saying that, Wen Yao went directly into the kitchen, asked Mingyue to light the fire, then threw the coal in his hand into the stove and waited nearby.

"Miss, are you going to let the fire burn like this?" Mingyue asked, worried that the black lump would be burned out.

Wen Yao nodded: "Yes, just burn it."

Not long after, Mingyue shouted: "Miss, he is burned red."

Wen Yao asked Mingyue to get out of the way, and she squatted behind the stove and took a look at the red coals. She was now convinced that this was coal.

That's it.

"That's it."

Coal is a good thing, it is the best fuel, but she doesn't know whether it is good or bad to get the coal out at this time.

But in order to make steel, she can't control so much for the time being. Moreover, Professor Wen also expects her to make glass. As long as there is coal, these things can be made sooner or later.

"Let's go, carry your things and find Mr. Zhuo." Wen Yao clapped her hands and stood up, not caring about washing her hands. She called Li Yi and left, not forgetting to remind Mingyue: "Mingyue, don't touch it with your hands. This thing burns very hot, hotter than firewood."

Mingyue, who was curiously picking up the red-hot coal with a stick: "..." silently withdrew her hand.

Zhao Yi asked someone to put a few bags of coal on the kang, and followed Wen Yao and Li Yi out of the house without stopping and went straight to the workshop.

When I arrived at the workshop, I met Zhuo Yi, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time.

"Did you find this?" Zhuo Yi ran over excitedly when he saw them, and couldn't wait to pick up the bags.

In fact, he didn't have to make a sewing machine during this period. After all, there were no needles and the iron couldn't be wasted any more. He could only study some small things here. Thanks to Mr. Wen who knew a lot, the two of them got together and tinkered with farm tools. What.

Now that the things were really found, Zhuo Yi felt that he would have something to do for a long time.

Wen Yao nodded: "Master Zhuo, this is coal."

Zhuo Yi couldn't wait to open the furnace and start making steel now, but when he looked at the amount, it seemed that it was too little.

"Is this, that's all?" According to the documentation in the brochure, this coal turns to ash after burning. It's not even enough to stuff it between your teeth.

Zhao Yi said: "Master Zhuo, naturally there are not only this many." How could there be only so many? The bottom of the mountain they found was full of black stones, and there were as many as they wanted.
