After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man

Chapter 112: Going up the mountain to dig coal

"Sister, this iron-eating beast has no idea how full it is. It actually ate so much that it couldn't even leave the table!"

After school, the three brothers of the Bai family looked at the two new little animals in their home and stared at them for a long time.

Zhuzi was so full that he couldn't get down from the table. It was Bai Qinghai, the third Bai, who carried him down from the table.

Feeling the heavy weight in his hand, Bai Qinghai couldn't help but ask.

Zhuzi and Huohuo can live in the Bai family and can show some intelligence that is different from ordinary animals, but considering the acceptance level of ordinary people, the fact that the two little ones can speak should be kept secret if possible.

As a substitute for Zhuzi, Bai Qingyun could only answer this question that made the bear sad.

"Third brother, he must be...very hungry!"

There was no way. Bai Qingyun couldn't just say that based on Zhuzi's previous appetite, he would eat more today. Was it simply because his father picked up too much?

It was the first time for the whole family, including Bai Qingyun, to raise animals and they had no experience to draw on.

Looking at the entire Dayang Village, or even the entire Qujiang County, there are very few families who raise animals.

When people are hungry, raising an animal will no longer be a spiritual comfort, but will instead become a burden to survival.

These novice pet owners with zero experience paid special attention to the two little ones' food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Next time, Bai Qingyun can only try to stop his father and feed him moderately!

"Oh, sister, the school will be closed in two days. Let's go hunting in the mountains together!"

Brother Bai Qingshan has been following his father up the mountain since he was a child, and he also has a lively personality.

Ever since I went to school, every time I heard about the interesting stories of Bai's father and Bai Qingyun going up the mountain, I couldn't help but feel itchy in my heart, but I knew that the opportunity to study was hard-won, so I could only suppress the restlessness in my heart and pick up the book.

"Brother, when school is over, the snow on the mountain will be thick and it will be unsafe!"

Bai Qinghu, the second brother of Bai, gently stroked the fur on Huo Huo's back with his hand. Huo Huo, who was full and satisfied, snuggled comfortably in Bai Qinghu's arms, feeling so comfortable.

"Old Two is right. Your school is closed because of the snow in the past two days. The roads will be difficult to travel in a while, and many people who live far away will have to go home, so they are closed. There are a lot of things to do at home, so just stay at home and help!"

Bai's mother sat on the kang and cut new clothes for Huohuo. The fiery red face should be matched with the white robe. I wonder how she will dress Huohuo.

"Your mother is right. When the snow melts next year, Dad will take you to the mountains to hunt!"

Father Bai knew what the three brothers of the Bai family were thinking. After all, he was young once too. Before going to school, he would go hunting in the mountains with Father Bai during the day, and Mother Bai would teach them at daybreak at night.

Although it is more convenient to go up the mountain with the youngest every time, the young men in the family also need to go up the mountain occasionally to exercise. If they sit in one place all the time, their bodies will become much more delicate.

The teacher assigned homework, and the three brothers just chatted for a while before reluctantly going back to their rooms to continue studying.

Grandpa Bai and Grandpa Xie came back an hour later. Except for the three brothers, everyone else was keeping warm in Grandpa Bai's room.

You came back so early?

Normally, as long as we brought braised meat and wine, everyone would drink for a long time and would not leave until late at night when everyone was drunk.

"Grandpa, what did the village chief say?"

Bai Qingyun was a little anxious. If Village Chief Yang did not agree, then he would have no choice but to dig up the mineral vein.

But when the time comes, it won’t be easy to supply the whole village.

"Don't worry, he knows he has to get up early tomorrow and can't drink too much!"

"Then it's done?"

Bai Qingyun didn’t know how the two grandfathers talked to the village chief grandfather, he only knew that his plan had not failed, at least he had not been in vain.

"It's done!"

Grandpa Xie didn't seem to drink much and looked full of energy.

"Tomorrow morning, everyone should bring their weapons and go up the mountain together. The ones who go up the mountain should be the ones who went to find the fairy tree last time. They have experience!"

The team searching for the magical tree were all men, some of whom had gone up the mountain to hunt with Bai's father before, so they did have enough experience in going up the mountain.

What's more, since everyone is together, they don't need to dig too much coal. One person can dig the amount that a family needs for several days in a day.

It’s a pity that if we ask Ye Qianchen to buy some modern tools for coal mining, the efficiency will be much higher. However, there are many people involved in this plan, so such modern products cannot be shown to others.

Bai Qingyun also gave up the idea of ​​looking for Ye Qianchen and could only rely on primitive methods.

The next morning, the whole Dayang Village came back to life. Last night, every household in Yang Dashan was notified that there was an important matter to be discussed on the mountain today. In addition, since it was the Bai family's idea, every household got up earlier than usual for fear of delaying things.

On the first day, they had to go to the site for survey. Bai Qingyun would also go with them. She was the only female member of this coal mining team.

After yesterday's observation, the ore vein is not deep, and the amount used in Dayang Village will not be much, so it is enough to just dig the surface coal.

This also greatly reduces the risk of mining. After all, the risks of mining in an airtight mine are incomparable to those of open-pit mining.

"Bai girl, is this coal really okay?"

Although Grandpa Bai emphasized it many times, hearing Bai Qingyun's reply in person made him feel more at ease.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Village Chief, I'll be watching the whole thing, nothing will happen."

The team is composed of young and middle-aged people from every household, with Village Chief Yang and Bai Qingyun being the only two exceptions.

One serves as the commander of the team, and the other serves as the guide to discover the coal mine.

Since the two of them had limited abilities, they just started chatting.

Bai Qingyun explained to Village Chief Yang the process and benefits of making honeycomb coal so that the old man would have a general idea of ​​it.

At the same time, the women in the village were responsible for preparing lunch for the people in the mountains. Such collective activities have always been held in the village ancestral hall.

But the one who cooked today was not Grandma Bai, but a young woman from the village.

Grandma Bai and Mother Bai were asked by Bai Qingyun to go to the blacksmith shop in town to order tools for making honeycomb coal.

According to Bai Qingyun's plan, the first batch of coal transported down the mountain can start production today.

The raw materials for honeycomb coal can also be obtained locally, take some yellow mud and water, add crushed and ground coal, and mix them according to the proportion.

The first batch of finished blanks can be placed in a ventilated place to dry.

Although there is not much sunshine recently, there is still ventilation and sunshine, and the production place is chosen to be close to the kitchen of the ancestral hall.

In the next few days, the kitchen of the ancestral hall will run non-stop and the temperature inside will not be low. The moisture inside will be slowly dried out with the help of the temperature transfer.

By using multiple methods together, the first batch of honeycomb coal can be put into use within three days.

The appeal of the Bai family gets everyone moving, but it cannot compare to the good experience of using the product themselves, which motivates people more.
