Parents are busy farming

Chapter 342 Inspecting the Tent

With the help of Li Daniu and Cui Haidi, Ye Zifen built a wooden support inside Zhuangzi.

In fact, the bracket is very simple. It is just a cone-shaped structure made of six pieces of wood as thick as a person's arm.

It was fixed with thick hemp rope.

Then the girls started cutting the fabric after seeing the frame. and quickly sewn together.

Finally, with everyone's help, a simple tent was built.

"I feel that sewing some ropes on it and fixing it with wooden pegs will make it stronger, and it won't take much effort," Cui Hai said.

He is older, has more experience, and thinks more comprehensively.

Ye Zifen nodded after hearing this, "That's a good idea. I'm not afraid of the wind anymore."

The girls listened, while Ye Zifen and Cui Hai determined the fixed position of the rope.

The final plan was quickly finalized.

In order to see how firm it was, Ye Zifen climbed to the top of the bracket and shook it from side to side.

Liu Menger and Luo Ke were frightened to see this.

"Fifth Miss, you have to be careful!" Liu Meng'er warned.

"Fifth Miss, you'd better come down quickly! Just let others go up and try." Luo Keren was stamping his feet anxiously below.

Ye Zifen rolled her eyes directly, "Luo Keren, do you want to say that you asked Daniel to come up? You are such a cruel woman. Daniel, do you regret it?"

Li Daniu chuckled, "I don't regret it. Miss, I just said I would go up and give it a try. If you don't agree, I will give you a stare when you come down!"

Ye Zifen laughed after hearing this, and Luo Keren immediately glared at Li Daniu.

Li Daniu quickly pursed his lips and shut them.

After everything was done, Ye Zifen came down from above, "We still need a circular wooden frame to fix them. Let the carpenters think of a solution when I get back."

"My fifth young lady! You can never do this kind of thing in front of me in the future. Don't you want my life?"

Luo Keren held on to Ye Zifen's hand, hoping that Ye Zifen would make a promise to her.

What could Ye Zifen do? He nodded quickly, "I only went up when I was confident. Besides, I'm a martial arts practitioner and nothing will happen to me."

Luo Kecai didn't listen to her explanation, he just looked at her with tears in his eyes.

Ye Zifen swallowed and turned to look at Li Daniu.

Li Daniu gave him a helpless expression, and Ye Zifen had no choice but to coax: "Okay, I won't go up in the future."

At this time, Liu Meng'er smiled and said to Luo Keren: "Good sister, our fifth lady has promised, we won't be angry anymore."

Luo Keren tapped Liu Meng'er's forehead, "You are the ghost."

Then he looked at Ye Zifen, "Miss, although I'm ignorant, you are my biggest concern in this life. Without you, I don't even know what I would be like now!"

Ye Zifen hugged her, "Fool, this is our fate. I will definitely protect myself. Don't worry, I promise you that I will protect myself whether you are in front of me or not."

Only then did Luo Ke truly feel relieved.

"Okay, girls, don't look anymore, let's hurry up and get to work!" Liu Meng'er greeted the girls to work.

The girls began to cut the sheepskin, using the most economical method to cut out the sheepskin and sew it together.

Also ensure that the stitched sheepskin is strong, airtight, and waterproof.

The sewing thread is very important. After discussion, several people finally decided to cut the sheepskin into thin strips and use them as silk threads one by one.

Fortunately, the needle hole for the shoe sole can be passed through, otherwise it would be a big problem to customize the needle.

As a result, it took thirty sheepskins to sew together a tent.

This can only make seventeen, but it is enough for the current number of people in the caravan.

Li Daniu saw that Ye Zifen was free and came over quickly.

Said: "Miss, I have something to tell you."

Ye Zifen walked out and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Daniu's face was full of hesitation, but in the end he said firmly: "Miss, can the caravan wait a little longer before setting off. This time, the horses are too tired to go out."

Speaking of this, he couldn't hide the distressed look on his face.

Ye Zifen thought it was something and immediately said: "They will stay at home for a long time this time, probably more than half a month. In addition, we will not set off until our tent is ready, so don't worry."

Li Daniu asked again: "Miss, I see there are still a lot of beans in the warehouse. Can you give the horse some beans in the next few days?"

Zhifen was amused, "Do you know the beans are about to be fried for them?"

Li Daniu quickly said: "I know!"

Ye Zifen waved her hand and asked him to leave.

Li Daniu left with a smile on his face. He went to the warehouse and moved out two sacks of beans with Cui Hai's help.

Then he put on a big pot and started frying the beans. He jumped directly onto the stove and flipped the beans in the pot back and forth with a wooden spade.

Ye Zifen saw that everyone in Zhuangzi was busy, so she couldn't be idle and went to prepare other things.

When I returned to the county town, I went to the blacksmith shop to order a stove and chimney.

"The length of the chimney is this size." Zhifen handed a drawing to the blacksmith.

The blacksmith looked at it and nodded.

"I want seventeen sets."

After Ye Zifen said this, even the blacksmith was shocked.

Check again with her, "How much?"

Ye Zifen smiled, "Seventeen sets!"

"Then...it will take at least half a month."

The blacksmith was both excited and scared to receive such a big order.

Half a month coincided with the time requested by Li Daniu, so she nodded, "Okay!"

But he still warned: "The connection between the stove and the chimney must be tight. We put it in a relatively closed space. Don't let anything happen."

Mrs. Su's example was before her, she couldn't let her guard down.

"Don't worry, Miss Ye Wu, you have done a lot of things here, and I have never let you down."

Ye Zifen smiled, then put down a deposit of one or two silver and left.

After leaving the blacksmith shop, she bought some paper money and incense candles.

Back in the village, Ye Zifen took the drawings to find two carpenters in Lujiacun.

This time, instead of looking for them separately, they shouted together.

"I have something here that I need to help the uncles make," Ye Zifen said.

Last time, the little girl led them to make a lot of money, which gave both families enough money to build a house for their family.

Now that they heard that Ye Zifen had another job for them, they immediately laughed.

"You need to make round wooden sticks of this size, and place a fixed disc at the top so that the six wooden sticks are stuck inside. This disc is equivalent to a lock, making these wooden sticks more Firm." Ye Zifen said while pointing to the drawing.

In fact, the drawing above is very simple, just leaving a bracket and length, but the disk requires two carpenters to think.

One of them immediately said: "Actually, if you want to fix it, you can fix it underneath."

Ye Zifen immediately said: "This needs to be carried for long distances, so the lighter and stronger the better."

The two understood immediately.

"Let's think about it and try it before we talk." The two said to Ye Zifen after discussing it.

Ye Zifen reminded: "Everything must be polished smooth, because the outside of this thing is made of fur fabric, so don't hang it on the hook. Don't damage it."

"we know!"
