Infrastructure masters in the red building

That night, Jia Amnesty arranged for Zhao Cheng to pack up and bury Zhao Cheng, and reported to the government that he accidentally fell into the furnace after being drunk, and died due to the fire.This reason was also reported to Zhao Cheng's family, and Jia Fang paid for it and gave the family a little pension.

Mrs. Sun was not in the Grand View Garden that night, but temporarily stayed in the kimchi workshop in the south of the city.The news was logically kept from the old lady for the time being.

Jia Fang stayed in the Xiaoxiang Hall for a whole night, tried his best to take a copy of all the useful books he could think of from the shelf, and packed them to Xiaoxiang Academy in Taoyuanzhai—he thought, in case Xiaoxiang If there is anything wrong with the museum, at least there can be a backup of this knowledge.

At dawn the next day, the workers had the opportunity to enter the garden and remove the black kerosene mixed in the water system of the Grand View Garden little by little.The oil was poured by Zhao Cheng from the spring in the backyard of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and it appeared on the water surface in the Qinfang gate the next morning.There is a large black oil stain on the water surface, but when the sun shines, it turns into a large colorful oil spot.The workers had never seen it before, and they all praised it for its beauty—Jia Fang couldn't laugh or cry.

This reminded Jia Fang that if the people who own the firecrackers are the same group of people who are coveting the library of the Xiaoxiang Library, then this group of people now have channels to obtain fierce fire oil.

It just proves once again that the other party's use of resources is still at a fairly elementary level, and what Zhao Cheng brought into the garden was black crude oil. If the other party can refine oil and produce gasoline and diesel, then Jia Fang may be right now. Kneeling in front of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion and crying loudly.

Jia Fang remembered that the double text of the letter to be sent to Baigongfang had not yet been delivered, so he hurriedly filled in a few more strokes. After finishing writing, he found that his notes were messy, and the preface did not match the postscript, which might cause another person to worry. Unable to stop, he could only hold back his temper, transcribe it again, and let Shuangwen send the letter out after saying that he was all right.

Jia Amnesty and Jia Fang made an appointment, and they will meet in the Grand View Garden three days later.Three days later, Jia Amnesty came as promised, nodded at Jia Fang and said, "We found out."

"That brat Zhao Cheng owed a lot of gambling debts in the gambling shop. The gambling shop owner made a bet with him, saying that if Zhao Cheng had the guts to set fire to his master's yard, he would be killed." His gambling debts were forgiven. In the end, this kid was deceived by lard, and came back to make trouble for our family."

Jia Amnesty spoke out his "investigation conclusion" slowly.

Jia Fang leaned forward and asked, "Is it that simple?"

"It's that simple!" Jia Amnesty narrowed his eyes, clasped the back of his head with his hands, and leaned back comfortably on the back of the chair.

But this can't explain at all how Zhao Cheng got the kerosene, and it can't even explain why Zhao Cheng failed to set fire but tired himself, and where did the objects that ignited in his clothes come from.

Jia Fang looked at Jia Amnesty blankly, feeling in a daze that this big brother was different from before, but he couldn't tell what was different.

"Brother," Jia Fang held back for a long time before choking out a sentence, "Our garden is at least a royal garden. If something happens...it will be very troublesome. I will ask my brother for help in the future, and be careful About the garden."

Apart from his garden, Jia Fang also wanted to remind: the Rongguo Mansion has leaked information one after another to outsiders like the Third Prince, and has sent danger signals many times.But he didn't know how to mention it to Jia Amnesty.

But Jia Amnesty said carelessly: "I know, don't worry, third child. Which one of us is with whom? Brother will definitely take care of your affairs."

Jia Fang thought about it: It is true——what kind of friendship does he have with Jia Amnesty?When Jia She was down, he pulled Jia She, and when he was in crisis, he would also think of asking Jia She for help.

He knew that Jia She was not easy to fool, even if he could see the problem, Jia She must have seen it.At this moment, Jia She is unwilling to speak out, there must be some unspeakable secrets.It wasn't long before Jia Amnesty took over the affairs of the Rongguo Mansion, so it was inconvenient to force him.

So Jia Fang relaxed his mind, and turned the conversation to his little nephew who was about to be born. After finding out that Jia Hu was born only a month or two ago, he asked Shuangwen to help him find some gifts in Beijing.

When Jia Amnesty went back, he went to see his wife and children first as usual.Zhang's maid was playing with Jia Lian in the yard, and the younger brother was walking vigorously with his short arms and short legs.Mrs. Zhang sat in the main room and smiled.

After seeing Jia Amnesty, Mrs. Zhang asked him, "Have you seen Mama Xia?"

Lao Xia's mother is Zhang's wet nurse, and Zhang came with her roommate when she got married.This old Xia's mother is the most loyal to Mrs. Zhang, and she was the one who had trouble with Shuangwen last time.

Jia She said with a smile: "When I saw her just now, she said she was suffering from heat stroke, I told her to go and rest first."

As soon as Mrs. Zhang heard that her wet nurse was suffering from heat stroke, she hurriedly stood up to see her, but Jia Amnesty stopped her and said, "It's not a big deal. I've ordered someone to make some mung bean soup for her. She'll be fine after a while. Tell her to come up with you."

Only then did Mrs. Zhang feel relieved.But Jia She said: "You have to take care of yourself. In the future, you will be the eldest wife of the government's mansion, and you will be in charge of the middle class in the mansion. You will be busy."

Mrs. Zhang laughed immediately after hearing this: "Listen, how can you start bragging that you are the head of the Duke's Mansion now? I think it's good for the wife to take care of the house. Now our children are young, and the children are too busy. Divide more than half of your mind into the housekeeper?"

Jia She immediately laughed and said, "You just have such a good heart——"

As he spoke, he got up and ordered casually: "I'll go to the study outside the front, and come back in the evening."

In the study outside the Rongguo Mansion, Jia Amnesty was sitting on the grand master's chair, and Old Xia's mother knelt in front of him, kowtowing like garlic.

"I really didn't expect that the boy next to the third child, who went to gamble and go whoring, would be able to work you to make a match?"

Jia Amnesty is also a ruthless character. Three days after Zhao Cheng's death, he had already found out the whole story, and he never expected that people around his wife would be involved.

"Uncle, uncle, my wife is really helpless. The old woman only has one son, but she was coaxed into losing all her wealth and almost lost her life. There is really no other way to do this..." Where is Lao Xia? There is also the arrogant appearance in front of Shuangwen in the past, facing Jia Amnesty, he only dared to bow down and beg for mercy.

"Your son's life is life, but my brother's life is not life?" Jia Amnesty still said coldly.Lao Xia's mother had no choice but to continue to kowtow and beg as always.

"Uncle, our young lady will be born in just over a month, she really can't do without my old lady! For our young lady's sake, please keep me by her side..."

Jia Amnesty had seen Zhang's reaction earlier, and knew that Zhang could not do without Lao Xia's mother.

When he saw Lao Xia's mother now, it was indeed just a threat, and he had no intention of transferring Lao Xia's mother from Zhang's side.

"Since this is the case, please remember. My wife and children are my life. If they are injured in the slightest, I will not let anyone go."

"I didn't just forgive you, and the past is not written off. I just want you to know that if you disappear or something is wrong, Grandma won't be happy. I keep you by her side just to see For her face, I want to reassure her."

"If you dare to do anything wrong to her, you... know what I will do." Jia Fang said indifferently, "By the way, here is a bowl of mung bean soup, specially ordered to cook for you. Don't forget Oh, you are suffering from heatstroke right now, you drank some mung bean soup, and you don't need to go back to serve at night..."

Seeing the bowl of mung bean soup, Lao Xia's mother started fighting with her upper and lower teeth.But under the intimidation of Jia She's gaze, he had no choice but to thank Jia She, and took the soup with both hands, like drinking medicine, and drank it in one gulp until there was not even dregs left, then he kowtowed and thanked Jia She , slowly got up, and slowly withdrew.

Looking at the figure of Lao Xia's mother leaving, Jia Fang suddenly had a thought in his mind: always being kind to others, in fact, it seems to be... useless.It is really not as good as power and deterrence, and it is more useful to control others.

He didn't know what was going on recently, something was always wrong, as if someone had bewitched him in his heart and planted an evil thought.After that evil thought was born, he was no longer the little naive before.

Needless to say how Mrs. Shi treated him in the past, his father Jia Daishan knew it well - as long as he made a memorial to establish the son, he would be able to block Mrs. Shi's dirty thoughts, but Jia Daishan never intervened.

Until this time, Rong Guogong was seriously injured, and he asked to be crowned son when he was in danger. Jia Amnesty was deeply moved, but now he felt resentful: It seemed that the father could not remember that there was such a son until it was a last resort?

Only thinking of the youngest Jia Fang, Jia Amnesty will feel better - since he became the heir, the attitudes of many people in the mansion have changed, but Jia Fang is still the same, what he was before is still what he is now ...

It just seemed that Jia Fang was a little dissatisfied with Zhao Cheng's handling of the matter, but he still held back and didn't criticize him face to face.

Jia Amnesty doesn't want to lose the trust of this younger brother, but thinking about Jia Fang's special status, who will know whether he will be a blessing or a curse in the future?Thinking of this, Jia Amnesty was at war with heaven and man again. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter should not be over-thought.

irritating! ——Jia She couldn't help but lay down on the edge of the table again, making a deep mark on his forehead.Later, thinking that Mrs. Zhang would make a big fuss if she saw her, she quickly raised her head and rested for a long time, then rubbed and rubbed vigorously with a hot towel before going back to the backyard.

As usual, Jia Fang took out a "big gift bag" from the password box in the wing room of Daoxiang Village, weighed it, and immediately smiled, thinking that today would be another bumper harvest day.

He also left some things for Shuangwen, besides the letter sent to Baigongfang, there was also a letter addressed to Jia Amnesty.

But after Jia Fang thought about it, he felt that it was not appropriate to give this letter directly to Jia She. If Jia She felt that he was a crow's mouth and said nothing, but had a grudge in his heart, how bad would it be?

After thinking for a long time, Jia Fang finally wrote another letter, explained the reason clearly, and handed it to Shuangwen for her to deal with.

Then it was time for him to open the big gift bag.

Jia Fang returned to Taoyuan Village, opened his "big gift bag", and immediately asked someone to notify Zhang Youshi and Mi Sandao to come over.

Zhang Youshi was close and arrived first. When he saw Jia Fang's dazzling array of equipment, he had the same expression as when Jia Fang was unpacking—he was dumbfounded.

"This is--"

"This is a surgical scalpel, and this is a syringe made of glass, with a needle made of fine steel..." Jia Fang took out the contents of the gift bag and explained them to Zhang Youshi. Several newly developed products were taken out, "This is an infusion tube made of rubber, this is a nasal feeding tube, and this is suture thread for surgery..."

Scalpels and glass syringes are fine, but steel injection needles are a big leap in industrial technology in this time and space.

The production of hollow needles requires rolling extremely thin steel plates into coils, and then elongating and thinning them. After the "steel coils" are stretched to a certain length and reach a certain fineness, they are cut into sections and the needle tips are sharpened.

Jia Fangyuan did not expect Shuixian's team to make this in such a short period of time.But no matter what, the emergence of needles has helped Zhang Youshi a lot. This medical expert has learned about the "injection" method of drug delivery from various channels, but suffers from lack of tools.

With the glass syringe and the infusion tube, Zhang Youshi's team can try whether it is infusion or injection.

Looking at these and those, Zhang Youshi laughed excitedly.Mi Sandao entered the door with a smile, and said, "What makes Mr. Zhang so happy?"

Zhang Youshi didn't want to stay any longer, he quickly swept away all the "samples" brought to him by Jia Fang, and forced Jia Fang to admit that these large batches of finished products would be delivered soon, so he left satisfied.

So Mi Sandao sat across from Jia Fang, and asked curiously, "Master Jia, what do you want a villain for?"

"I'll show you these two items." Jia Fang took out two items from the "big gift bag" and handed them to Mi Sandao.

"Lipstick?"

Lipstick was originally called "mouth fat" in this time and space, and it was made of butter.After Misandao started beekeeping and produced beeswax, Taoyuan Village began to try to use beeswax to make solid tube-shaped lip balm. Because Jia Fang called it lipstick, everyone in Taoyuan Village called it "lipstick" together.

Jia Fang nodded, took out a tube-shaped lipstick, spun out the paste inside, and handed it to Mi Sandao: "Come on, you have researched this, let's see if this is better than the one made with your beeswax?"

Mi Sandao took it, and tried it on the back of his hand as promised.At least in Jia Fang's view, Mi Sandao's posture is absolutely authentic, exactly the same as that of the girls in another time and space when they tried the lipstick.

"Almost, very moist." Mi Sandao concluded.There is a ruddy streak on the back of his hand, bright but not frivolous.

Jia Fang smiled, took out a few candles from the "big gift bag", and said, "This lipstick is made of the same material as these."

The "new" lipstick sent by Suixian is made of palm oil, paraffin and dyes.The material of the candle is also paraffin-a by-product obtained after the fractional distillation of "fire oil".Jia Fang originally wrote to Shui Xian asking him to try using paraffin to make candles, but this one came up with the idea of ​​replacing beeswax with paraffin to make lipstick.

In Jia Fang's understanding, this is indeed possible.

It seems that the beauty industry is about to face changes again.

Mi Sandao was quite surprised, and said, "Why, does Mr. Jia not need to use the villain's beeswax?"

Jia Fang let out a "hurt" and said, "Aren't you reluctant to part with the beeswax that your bees have worked so hard to produce?"

Natural beeswax has a wide range of uses, and it would be a shame if all of it was used in lipstick manufacturing.In Taoyuan Village, especially Zhang Youshi's side, natural beeswax is needed to make some pills and ointments.Mi Sandao will first meet the needs of Mr. Zhang, and of course there is no way to supply Jia Fang with beeswax.Therefore, Mi Sandao feels guilty every day.

Now that Jia Fang has found an alternative that is cheaper and has the same effect, the beeswax from Misandao is no longer needed, and the wax produced by the Mijia bee farm can be supplied to other industries in the village as a matter of course.

Mi Sandao breathed a sigh of relief, and then jokingly said: "Master Jia, then you called the villain over, didn't you come to entertain the villain?"

Call him over and specifically tell him that other more suitable and cheaper materials have been found for lipstick?

Jia Fang also laughed: "Of course it's not to amuse you, but—"

He took out the two "hardcover" lipsticks in the "big gift bag" and handed them to Mi Sandao: "This is a gift for you and your wife—take it and say something nice to your wife!"

Mi Sandao was overjoyed immediately, took the things from Jia Fang, even saluted before leaving in a hurry.Jia Fang couldn't help laughing, and thought that he loves his wife like his life, there is an elder brother Jia She in Beijing, and there is Mi Sandao here.

He had learned his lesson, and only then opened the letter sent by Shui Xian with the big gift bag, so as not to cause others to read the silly smiles when he read the letter.

But who would have thought that this time he had just read the beginning, and someone was looking for him outside.Jia Fang looked up and saw that it was people from the Investment Promotion Office who came in with Tian Youming and his son.

Father Tian had a sad face, while Tian Youming was still calm. After saluting Jia Fang, he said, "Master Jia, I have something to ask you."
