Infrastructure maniacs from the East

War is a confrontation between the upper class and even a butcher's knife for the people at the bottom. Every victory, from food and grass to weapons, is full of blood and blood. The presence of the Paladins is destined to be a war that will not be small. For the time being, Febrina was not rich before, but this city is very prosperous. No matter which side wins, it will come here to sweep it up, and it will not exceed three years in a year or a half.

But being able to cut flesh and bloodletting is still the best result, which means that at least they don't have to face the battlefield in person. Once they are involved in the meat grinder, it will be a miserable pain for thousands of miles. The housekeeper subconsciously avoided this more likely future.

Fortunately, they still have time.

Thinking of the land firmly enclosed in a solid city wall, thinking of the lord who is crazily stockpiling grain and never listens to persuasion, Catherine is more than ever grateful for Xu Tian's fear of death... Bah, looking far ahead, looking at the hard-working people in front of her and sighing , These people are in good spirits now, but in fact they are just hanging out. They are involved in this kind of war where the castle has insufficient attack and defense, and they are basically on the death list in advance. Cities are their open-air graveyards.

But these news are also whispered by the businessman. Once the arrival time of the war is revealed, it will be fast-forwarded. However, it is difficult for everyone to abandon their hometown and go to Febrina without telling it. make a decision.

"They have nothing to do with us."

Of course, the butler had seen through the mind of the chief soldier, and with a simple sentence, he completely separated the city from Febrina. Catherine, who is full of stories, has to be cold and hard. The weak sympathy for these people does not make him make the decision to involve Febrina in the war ahead of time. It is luck to enter Xu Tian's side and it is just bad luck. , What sounds cruel is actually just a simple difference between closeness and closeness.

"……I see."

Catherine, who was able to walk from the bottom to Xu Tian's side, was naturally not stupid. As soon as the housekeeper reminded her, she broke free from the inexplicable sadness and began to question what she was thinking before—even if these people went to Febrina The castle is a matter for the future, why does she keep hesitating among the lord's subjects and them?

Really stupid.

After being ridiculed unscrupulously by the little devil with wings in her heart, Catherine's mind returned to normal.

The housekeeper, who had been observing secretly, stamped the qualified label in his heart on this soldier leader. Although he was relatively weak in physical fitness because of his gender, he was still clear-headed and had the potential to climb to a higher position.

When Catherine and the others began to transfer food quietly and rushed to work hard to brainwash the employers, Xu Tian, ​​who had been nagging, sneezed at a large area of ​​familiar plants on the saline-alkali land. It was cleverness to put a light coat on Xu Tian. The spring morning was still slightly chilly, and Eric plunged into the depths of the woods to hunt again. His knight was gradually transforming in the battle with wild beasts throughout the year. .

"Plant species: mugwort."

The long-lost testimonial struggled to display a few words and became a state of little chrysanthemums turning and turning, but Xu Tian didn't have the heart to pay attention to the existence of this increasingly wasteful existence, and had an absolute advantage in the saline-alkali land the size of a football field. Familiar plants grow wantonly, which makes Master Xu, who was almost autistic by mosquitoes last year, want to cry.That's it.

The excited lord thought about the water level that Emily had just reported to him two days ago, and he did not hesitate to ask Merrell to arrange for someone to take away all the mugwort that had grown up here. If the ending doesn’t happen, it’s best to spend more time this year. If a disaster does come, this thing is also a good thing to sign up for. Xu Tian is not a kind person, but he doesn’t reject spending a little time planning for the future. Fortunately, he found it before. There is also pyrethrum, he plans to make a batch of useful mosquito coils this year, and if it doesn’t work, he will at least make a batch of mosquito repellent powder.

Pyrethrum is the most important raw material for making mosquito-repellent incense. When Xu Tian was planning to DIY on a whim, he checked various methods, and finally found a relatively reliable recipe - pyrethrum, elm bark powder, white wood powder, ethyl phenol and Pigment, I don’t know what the pigment is for, but the ethyl phenol that can’t be made or found for the time being plays the role of anti-mold and anti-oxidation. Xu Tian, ​​who is not ready to commercialize it for the time being, feels that it is still no use.

Elm bark powder makes mosquito-repellent incense form and white wood powder makes it burn. These two are the foundations that cannot be avoided. Fortunately, Lord Xu’s territory is full of trees. Come back and do experiments slowly, labor is precious, but Xu Tian can tell the difference, as long as the mosquito coil succeeds this time, it will be a big victory, and if it fails, it will be a small loss to be able to make insect repellent powder, and the difference is only two more. It's just a labor force that can't do heavy work, Lord Xu said that he can afford it.

Seeing that the mosquito problem that has been lingering in his mind has been solved, Xu Tian, ​​who is rarely at leisure, began to think about the medicine that was basically at a standstill. The five elements of traditional Chinese medicine said that it was embarrassing himself. I also only got some prescriptions that I have seen before. I don’t know if they need to be adjusted in this era, but without Zhang Butcher Lord, he doesn’t eat hairy pigs. Xu Tian, ​​who is in a good mood, thought of two important modern recuperation methods— - Scraping!Cupping!

Scraping is usually done with ox horns or jade. Although Lord Xu did not have enough ox horns to find jade in this place, but when he was traveling before, he saw tour guides using silver bowls to scrape people and the effect was very good. Xu Tian felt that he could do the same. Try it, gold and silver are expensive now, but Koukou can still make half a bowl, and you can get started directly after training the little housekeeper. This kind of universal natural therapy that is effective in promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, detoxifying and beautifying the skin may save lives in difficult times. .

Cupping is relatively more difficult, not to mention that the only impression of it in reality is the small half-circle imprint on the back of the mother occasionally coming back. All Lord Xu can think of now is the bamboo tube. This is a fragment of a story about three bluestone slabs that he has seen before. In it, the elderly father flashed his waist when he went back one day, and then his wife gave it to him. He treated the wound with cupping.

"Slapped it up... black blood flowed out."

Xu Tian carefully recalled the simple content of the article, hoping to find some rules of cupping. The caring butler brought a plate of lard residue with max meat strength, and carefully glanced at Xu Tian's thinner face with his peripheral vision. He frowned secretly.

'Still too slow. '

Of course the little butler knew why Xu Tian was getting thinner and thinner even though he was not picky, but Melelle, who hadn't developed the ability to deal with major mistakes independently, couldn't help at all. Feed the lord in a different way, not to gain weight but not to lose weight so fast. It can still be said that the last sentence of thinness is still within the size range of normal people, but if it becomes thinner, it will become sick and weak.

Obviously, when the lord first arrived at the castle, he seemed to have a normal body shape, and he could even be called strong, but after he came, more and more things made him look like he is now. If Melelle didn't know that Xu Tian The appearance is nothing, but the little butler has been with the lord since he first arrived. No one has seen Xu Tian's tiredness late at night and the lights at dawn more than him. Guilty because it was supposed to be their job.

But they can't help at all.

When the training is not enough, forcibly intervening is not a burden, but a burden. The previous lord wanted to see the ability of his subordinates and tentatively released a thing that was not difficult... and then stayed up for three nights to make up for the omissions. It was not easy. After solving the matter relatively satisfactorily, he just lay on the bed and slept from day to night before barely recovering. Merrell did not participate but accompanied the whole process. That is to say, after watching too much, he realized that what the lord can solve is really not what they can face now. of.

People have to be self-aware.

Xu Tian, ​​who didn't know that his little housekeeper was sad again, tried his best to recall the acupuncture point map of the human body, hoping to get this universal scraping done as soon as possible, but looking at the densely packed dots on the paper and the indistinct font, Lord Xu He knew that he was going to work overtime again, and now he is very envious of Eric, who can eat and sleep and runs outside every day, and has a double chin. Xu Tian would never be so easy-going after [-]% of the time.

The intact horns that were left before were used to make chants, and those left in the castle were damaged and unsellable goods. Xu Tian directly smashed them into pieces and put them in the medicine cabinet in order to clean up the inventory. Now, I can't even find the ones the size of a fingernail. After confirming that although the caravans are developed, there is really no way to get horns for a while, Lord Xu can only search and search and move some money to prepare. Handmade.

At that time, the silver in the hands of the tour guide was very pure, and if he wanted to meet that standard, Lord Xu had to spend his time purifying these uneven silver coins, pieces, and nuggets. Fortunately, the book of this method has not been read until now It is on the finished book, and the most important prop, saltpeter, is also available in sufficient quantities for refining salt, so Xu Tian can experiment with confidence.

The crucible is not directly replaced by a pottery pot. The scattered silver is put into the blast furnace for smelting. The saltpeter sprinkled in in advance will bind all the copper and lead mixed in the cost to the bottom of the pot. In the ancient times of planting flowers, this thing has an image The name is Yin Rust, it seems very strange to say it, and it looks like that when you take a closer look. Xu Tian took a look to make sure he remembered this thing in his heart, and then he was ready to continue to purify. Besides this, there are also scattered in the gray pool. Fragments are called the bottom of the furnace, and they have to be put in when they are purified.

The next step is to put these two kinds of things that sound mysterious but actually are like that into the gold-separating furnace and burn them with earthen retorts and charcoal... Wait, something seems wrong? !

Lord Xu, who was belatedly aware of it, still has not escaped the fate of being a non-chief today. Before he can completely purify the silver, he has to spend a lot of time making a gold-splitting furnace.

The author has something to say: Xu Tian: Today I am still not a chieftain :)
