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

Although Bai Qingyun understood everyone's intentions, the hardship of climbing the mountain was not something an ordinary woman could endure.

Almost the next second after Aunt Niu put forward her idea, Bai Qingyun rejected it.

But before Bai Qingyun could veto, a voice of approval sounded behind him: "Yes, Bai girl, your Aunt Niu is right."

"Don't underestimate us female soldiers. When the men are not at home, we are the ones who do the work in the fields. We carry hoes under the scorching sun and do it without hesitation!"

"That's right. Back then, when my man went to work in the fields, he couldn't dig the ground as well as I do!"

"Yes, Bai girl, I heard that people who dig coal also use the strength of carrying a hoe. We young people have strength, so one more person can make more honeycomb coals!"

"..."

Everyone was talking at once, and Bai Qingyun's refusal was strangled in the cradle before he could even utter it.

"Why don't you discuss it with the village chief first?"

This incident was initiated by the Bai family, but was actually led by Village Chief Yang.

According to the plan, Village Chief Yang would not go up the mountain due to his age, but would keep an eye on the progress of everyone making honeycomb coal. After Bai Qingyun taught everyone the production method, his daily job was to go up the mountain to understand the progress of mining.

The mining process is different from the production process. If the gas concentration is too high, the possibility of an explosion cannot be completely ruled out. Bai Qingyun needs to keep a close eye on it, and Bai's father and Yang Dashan need to cooperate with manpower.

But Bai Qingyun could not make the decision alone to add new mining forces to the new team.

"Oh, that's exactly what I wanted you to say!"

Aunt Niu patted her knees and stood up gracefully.

Everyone is not a reckless person, so naturally they don't really think that Bai Qingyun can make the decision alone, but as long as Bai Qingyun speaks, the village chief will seriously adopt his suggestions.

Mentioning it is half the battle!

As for how to persuade him later, Bai Qingyun did not get involved any further.

"Bamboo, Huo Huo, I'm back!"

Bai Qingyun searched from the front yard to the back yard, but could not find the two little ones.

"Stop yelling, I left early this morning!"

Everyone in the family is busy outside. Grandpa Bai was left with a hidden illness when he went to the battlefield in his early years. Although he has recovered after Bai Qingyun's long-term treatment with spiritual spring water, in everyone's eyes, he still needs rest.

Not to mention Grandpa Xie, he was still sick when he came to the Bai family.

The two of them stayed at home to look after the house and feed the two little ones.

Bai Qingyun was a little surprised by what Grandpa Bai said.

"Where can they go?"

The first time they went up the mountain, the two little ones fell into a mine. Were they not scared enough to dare to go up the mountain?

"I saw them running up the mountain!"

Grandpa Xie's room is close to Xie Shuer's room. Both were expanded later, and the view is just right to see the mountain.

It's getting late now, but I haven't seen him come back yet. I can't help but feel worried.

The second after Bai Qingyun stepped out of the door, a familiar fiery red figure began to appear in his field of vision: "Master!"

Huo Huo saw that Bai Qingyun was waiting for him, so he sped up and quickly threw himself into Bai Qingyun's arms.

Zhuzi walked very slowly behind them and waited for a long time before approaching them: "Did you go hunting?"

Unlike releasing the prey in space, the prey here have undergone long-term reproduction and their numbers are quite large.

Just on this trip up the mountain, Zhuzi was carrying two wild rabbits and a wild duck in his hands!

"Host, don't worry about us, I will take good care of myself and my sister!"

It looks like they had a lot of fun today!

Bai Qingyun vaguely realized that when he was not in the space, weren't they just entertaining themselves?

It's just that when I'm alone outside, time passes quickly and I don't feel the time we're apart is long.

But Zhuzi and Huohuo are different. If Bai Qingyun doesn't enter the space for one day, they will have spent ten days alone in the space.

It turns out that many times it’s not that they can’t live without me, but that I have unknowingly become dependent on these two little ones!

When we went up the mountain the next day, the coal mining team had grown a lot larger.

In order to facilitate excavation and transportation, the initial coal pit was only three feet deep, but it was very long.

The progress on the first day was not obvious. There was only a small square pit. After a night of light snow, the black coal was covered with a layer of white snow.

The snow is not thick and does not need to be cleared specially. After being manually dug and turned into water, some water can be saved.

By the last day, each family had made nearly a hundred honeycomb coals and piled them in the corner of their own firewood room. They took up much less space than firewood, but were enough for everyone's life.

"Grandpa Village Chief, since we didn't have time to dry the coal we dug on the last day, we'll just distribute it to each household!"

The tools for making honeycomb briquettes have always been made to order in the town's blacksmith shops, until every household was allocated one, and then the process finally stopped.

"Okay, let's listen to Bai Yatou. The snow is getting heavier now. It's not safe to go up the mountain. It's getting more and more troublesome to sweep the snow in our ancestral hall. Let's distribute the coal ash tonight and stop going up the mountain tomorrow!"

The area for centralized drying in the ancestral hall is very large, and the snow must be cleared before making honey every day. But if each family makes a small amount of honeycomb honey and dries it over a stove fire, the process is the same.

After all, at this time of year, every household not only has to cook, but also has to heat the kang during the day, so there will never be a shortage of stove fire.

It is best to air-dry a small amount of honeycomb coal.

After Yang the village chief finished explaining, Bai Qingyun remembered something and added: "Everyone must pay attention. Do not burn unproportioned coal ash. Even if it is the honeycomb coal we made, you must open the window for ventilation when burning it."

As honeycomb coal entered everyone's lives, Bai Qingyun held a concentrated campaign to popularize safety knowledge about coal burning, trying his best to spread the potential hazards of coal burning to everyone in Dayang Village.

Facts have proved that Bai Qingyun's popular science is effective. Coal mines, which killed people invisibly in the past, have now become a powerful tool for heating.

To this day, there has not been a single case of carbon dioxide poisoning in any household.

"Okay, let's pack up and get ready to go down the mountain! We'll kill a pig tonight and have a good meal!"

Winter nights always come quickly and the daytime becomes very short, especially at sunset. You can see the sun just hiding a little bit, but when you look down and then up again, it has completely set.

Bai Qingyun and Bai's father walked at the back to prevent everyone from leaving anything behind.

The moment Bai's father turned around, no one could have imagined that there were rich coal resources under his feet. With just a thought, Bai Qingyun turned a corner of the space into a mountain of coal.

The Bai family actually had the most coal mines in Dayang Village. When Village Chief Yang distributed the coal, the one or two extra ones were evenly distributed, and most of them were given to the Bai family.

But even so, based on the Bai family's current consumption, it is still not enough.

Based on the principle of not wasting, Bai Qingyun put all the unmined coal into the space in case of emergency!
