Poverty Alleviation Princess

Uchiha mirror originally thought that it was just an accidental behavior for Ji Jun to let himself catch pheasants-it just so happened that the weak children came to the village and needed some meat to make up for it, and the adults had other jobs, so Just let the free time do it by yourself.

Not an official 'task', just a 'job' that happens to be done.

It's like asking a maid who happens to be free to clean the garden.

It never occurred to me that Ji Jun would take such a thing seriously as a 'task' for ninjas.

Sitting on a branch of a tree watching children picking thorny chestnut balls and digging wild vegetables, Uchiha mirror shook his head.

As the patriarch said, Ji Jun is a 'weird'.

No matter as a high-ranking "Ji Jun" or as a person living in this world, her thoughts and actions are very "weird", especially when facing and using ninjas.

He often has them, they are not weapons of war, but just like other people who work for Ji Jun, they just work for Ji Jun in an ordinary way, work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and then usually welcome the second sunrise.

It's really strange.

But for ninjas, it was a 'good thing' that they never dared to hope for.

——If the nobles in this world are like Ji Jun, then these ninjas will definitely not be what they are now, maybe even wars...

No, this is unlikely.

The history of war is the history of ninjas.

The history of ninjas has been around for nearly a thousand years.

So there is no such thing as war, it is impossible.

"I said mirror, don't be lazy."

The little girl in half-worn clothes stood under the tree with her hips akimbo, looking up at this 'colleague' who hadn't moved for a long time.

"You are the fastest one. If you are lazy, you will lose a lot of chestnuts."

As she spoke, she pointed to the half-full basket beside her.

"Sorry sorry, I'm just going to work."

Uchiha Kagami, who was stopped by the little girl, immediately stood up. He pinched Kunai and brushed it a few times. The chestnuts fell down like rain, and most of them fell on the basket and around the basket. There are also a small number of chestnuts falling in other directions.

The girl who was so frightened that she called Uchiha mirror to stop hurriedly backed up a few steps before she patted her chest to calm down—the chestnuts are delicious, but the prickly shell on the outside of the chestnuts is also painful to hit.

"mirror--"

"Sorry Xiaotao, I will pay more attention next time."

Seeing that the ripe chestnuts on this tree were almost harvested, Uchiha Kagami waved his hand begging for mercy, and then jumped to another tree with his feet hard.

Xiao Tao under the tree wasn't really angry either. Seeing that Uchiha Kagami started to work seriously, she shook her head and began to pick up the chestnuts that fell on the ground into the box.

With so many people coming recently, it is natural that there is a shortage of food. Even Ji Jun cannot provide unlimited food.So they want to bring back as much food as possible.

Chestnuts, wild vegetables, edible wild fruits and fungi, the more they take back, the less pressure Ji Jun will have.

"Xiao Tao, this frame is full!" From a distance, a child waved to Xiao Tao.

"Ali still has a new basket, just go and get it."

"knew."

Although she is only a child in her teens, because Xiao Tao is Ji Jun's apprentice maid, she is the "second in command" in the team that came out this time, except for Uchiha Kagami, who is fully responsible. Xiao Tao is an orphan Unlike other people brought out by Ji Jun from the village, she, like Calamus, is a refugee picked up by Ji Jun on the road.

Even the name Xiaotao was given by Ji Jun.So she has nowhere to go except Ji Jun's side.

That's why A Yuan left her behind.Although she thinks it is immoral to employ child labor, it is disturbing to think of a teenage girl living outside alone with no relatives or friends.It's better to put it by your side, do a little work, learn some skills from other people, no matter how poor you are, you can still feed a girl.

Of course, if you eat well, you don't dare to promise.

So Xiaotao just stayed, and her usual main job was to learn how to be a maid from Calamus, who had experience in dressing noble girls, and how to serve Ji Jun better.

Although she can only do some simple rough work now, Xiaotao always believes that one day she can become Jijun's personal maid like Calamus, offering perfect service to Jijun, and becoming Jijun's most trusted right-hand man.

The sun rose higher and higher, then changed from high to low, and then fell towards the sea level again.

When the sky began to darken, under the command of Uchiha Kagami and Xiao Tao, the children started their return journey with today's harvest on their backs.Faced with so many harvests, everyone is very happy.

But at the same time, they were happy and regretful—it was too early to go back, and they could definitely get two more baskets at this time.

In fact, Uchiha also thinks that it’s still early, and it’s okay to pick it up for a while, but Ji Jun specifically told him, “Go back when the sky starts to darken”, so he can only follow Ji Jun’s instructions and start to confirm the number of people and Harvest and prepare to return to the village.

Ji Jun was too careful.

She is always extra tolerant and careful when dealing with children - of course, as a "cared person", he doesn't hate this kind of concern, but as a ninja, his mood is inevitably a bit complicated.

For Ji Jun, he seems to have always been just a 'child', not a 'young ninja'.

——I don't know whether this is a 'good thing' or a 'bad thing'.

The little boy cleared the chestnuts one after another on the chestnut tree, and then the two kunai flew out and shot through the seven inches of the long snake that was swimming towards the children at some point, nailing it firmly to the ground .

...But since the patriarch asked him to come, it would not be a 'bad thing' for the ninja.

The aim of the second kunai was still a bit off. When the snake was nailed to the ground, the snake's skin was injured at the same time, and the snake's skin probably won't be used anymore.

Alas, my practice is still far from enough.

When Uchiha mirror took the children to pick chestnuts and dig wild vegetables, Yuan was not idle.

She managed to complete the task and got the craft of wool (wool), which is now in the crazy experiment stage.Although the system has never had a problem so far, it is always a good idea not to try something like this manually.

The courtyard of the other courtyard was completely reduced to a workplace before replanting other crops.

On one side are Senju Tomona and Uchiha Izumi, who are discussing the issue of wool weaving yarn, and on the other side are two Senjubashima who are squatting face to face and playing with slime... no, two Senju Bashirama who are playing with slime.

Thoroughly crushed soil and coal are mixed in a ratio of 1:2, then mixed with an appropriate amount of water to form a semi-dry and semi-wet carbon mud, and then the semi-dry coal ash is pressed into a container made of thick bamboo joints. One by one is cylindrical, and finally use the wooden escape (ninjutsu is amazing) to pierce the required holes one by one.Finally, just take out the pressed coal from the bamboo tube and dry it.

In order to speed up the forming, Senshou Zhujian also warmly invited his Tianqi to dry it with fire.

Although Uchiha Madara didn't want to see this silly guy covered in black and gray and smiling very much, but thinking that this was a serious business, he walked over with his hands in his hands, reluctantly listened to his gestures and began to help.

A series of events stunned A Yuan, the person who proposed the plan.

——You ninjas are really good at playing, no, ninjutsu is really convenient.

In addition to being able to use elemental (?) attacks like magic, you can also change usage according to needs like this... You are actually not ninjas, but great magisters, right?

Doesn't it mean that only at the level of a great magister can one not use fixed spells according to the regulations and change the form of magic according to one's own needs?

Really convenient.

It's not that Ah Yuan has never seen miraculous arts, she has always felt that with her background, she is already more knowledgeable than ordinary people.

Not to mention her cousin and cousin-in-law, one of them is a magical boy... No, one is the heir of the Li family, and the other is a magical girl. All kinds of magical developments are not uncommon.However, there are still many gaps compared with ninja and various ninjutsu.

Of course, if you only talk about good-looking and wonderful, then of course her cousin-in-law is much more powerful.After all, she is a magical girl who represents love and dreams.Consecutively ranked among the top three occupations in the "dream occupation" of girls in the loli period.

She even sometimes thinks that if her lovely cousin-in-law crosses over, she should do more and better than herself... But if she thinks about it, if she is the only one who crosses over, wouldn't she have to be with her lovely cousin? Cousin separated.

Forget it, young couples should be happy together.It is too much to let such a cute girl wait for me for so many years.

But I always feel that the ninjutsu here can break through her cognition every time - no, she shouldn't think so much, black cats and white cats, catch mice is a good cat, similarly, ninjutsu or magic, can be It's good to be useful.

A Yuan picked up the charcoal pen and started writing again on the 'experiment record' in his hand.

Work in the yard is still going on.

Although in the middle, due to poor control, the cinder ash that was stirred out was too thin to be used, and it was too dry and it would break when touched, or the wooden escape and the bamboo container that were used were cracked together by Senshou Zhujian. Uchiha Madara accidentally burned the coal together when he was drying the coal. In the end, there was a water escape between Senshou's gate, and the coal ash was washed everywhere. It was dirty, etc., and occasionally failed. There have been accidents where splashes of mud or sparks have ignited another group's fleece, and the two sides nearly fought each other. (...) But no matter what, in just two days, I can do it in a decent way just by relying on my own dictation.

It is already extremely efficient.In particular, the two Mr. Hashirama did not regard this as dirty work, but looked happy, as if they were doing some interesting games.

This positive and optimistic attitude at all times is probably the reason why he can gain the trust of most people.

Ah Yuan herself can't be so optimistic, so she actually admires such a person—of course, admiration is nothing but admiration, she doesn't want to be such a hearty gambler like Mr. Hashirama.

YouQi heard that he always loses every bet, and the more he loses, the more he gambles, which is extremely bad.

That day, Qianshou Zhujian happily looked for the good thing she wanted to show her, which was 'coal'.

It is said that the mountain collapsed in pieces during a certain battle before, and when I fell down the mountain, I saw such a coal mine. When I was talking to Ji Jun before, I remembered that Ji Jun once said that coal is very useful, so I simply used a scroll I packed a lot and brought it back to Ji Jun.It just so happens that I don't need to bring anything special this time, and the scroll is very empty.

There is no control over coal mines in this world.Although "coal" has been used as fuel in some countries, it is not known whether it is due to low utilization rate or confidentiality reasons, and it has not replaced firewood as the main fuel.

That's why Hashirama could pretend to leave after discovering the coal mine.

This is where Ah Yuan can rub coal "without capital".The luck was so good that A Yuan even felt that this was compensation for his poverty for more than half a year—it was a rebound after the bad luck reached a certain level.

——Otherwise, how could I, by such a coincidence, get the method of making woolen thread and at the same time meet Mr. Hashirama who happened to bring raw coal back.

If someone gives you a pillow when you are drowsy, you must have transferred your luck.

"Ji Jun, what are you remembering?" A dark figure came to Ji Jun at some time, and the traverser Qianshou Zhujian with black marks on his body looked curiously at A Yuan's writing with charcoal pen. Write and draw records.

"I'm recording the process and ratio, and I can't rely on you all to do it."

Such raw materials that require mass production must involve more people to ensure production.If it stops because one or two people are missing, it's a failed process.

The production of basic raw materials is destined to require a large amount of labor, a large amount of labor, a large number of jobs, and a large amount of supply... Although it is not so far away now, I want to supply my country with a population of more than 1000 for one winter. , it is definitely impossible to rely on only Mr. Hashirama and the others.

Even if they don't mind, it's impossible to stay here to help her grind coal and pull wool. They also have their own ninja work to do.

"...It's true."

Qianshou Zhujian thought about it, and soon understood what Ji Jun meant, although he himself really didn't mind doing it all the time (even he thought it was quite interesting).But it's true that I can't stay here forever.

I will go back to my own world one day, but before that, I still need to satisfy my curiosity.

"Then Ji Jun, these coals...after the briquettes are finished, how do we use them?" Although coal can be burned, there must be a purpose for deliberately making it like this.

"Oh, put it in a tin stove..."

A Yuan was about to respond casually, but only halfway through her words, she came to her senses. The hand holding the charcoal pencil paused slightly, and her expression became dull in an instant.

The most common household honeycomb is of course stuffed into a tin stove, which can not only heat up the room but also heat hot water and dry food.

But where does she get the iron sheet to make the stove now?
