Abandoned Prince Survival Guide

The rooster crowed three times, and Pei Linzhi had already practiced a whole set of sword skills.He put away the sword, took a long breath, wiped off the sweat on his chin, and was about to go to the well to fetch water to wash his face, but found that Ji Hai had already fetched water and waited aside.

"Mr. Pei Lang, the water has been drawn." Ji Hai said respectfully.

Pei Linzhi washed his face in the basin, wiped it with the handkerchief hanging on the bamboo pole, picked up the bow and quiver he put on the corridor, turned and walked outside, without a word during the whole process.

Ji Hai raised his heels, and Pei Linzhi glanced back at him: "I'm going hunting, are you trying to scare away my prey?"

Ji Hai stopped in his tracks and watched Pei Linzhi leave.

It was twilight, and Xiao Yu also got up. It was dark at night, and he didn't even have a book. He couldn't do anything except sleep. He went to bed when it got dark, and woke up when it was dawn. He really went to bed early and got up early.

Autumn is strong, the weather is cool, and the aroma of hibiscus is in the air.There was a crackling sound from the yard, Xiao Yu turned his head and saw that it was Ji Hai who was chopping firewood. He chopped up some waste firewood left over from the tile roof two days ago and piled them up under the side eaves.

"Ji Hai is so early, did he promise you?" Xiao Yu knew that Ji Hai had been asking Pei Linzhi for a teacher.

Ji Hai shook his head.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Rinzhi is still testing your patience, and will definitely teach you in the future."

Ji Hai nodded, but still didn't speak.

Xiao Yu started to do radio gymnastics, and Ji Hai watched him stretch his waist and twist his hips in surprise.

Xiao Yu smiled: "This is Wu Qin Xi, which is for physical fitness. But it's not Linzhi's martial arts, so it's not useful for fighting. Do you want to learn it?"

Ji Hai shook his head very firmly, Xiao Yu laughed, continued to do exercises, and jumped around in the yard again.He is not tall, about 1.7 meters in his early years. Now is the time to grow his body. In addition to eating a nutritious diet, he also needs to exercise properly.He hoped to be longer, at least don't look up at Pei Linzhi, that guy is really too tall, Xiao Yu suspects that he is 1.9 meters.

The fish came up a little later, and the little girl consciously went to light the fire to cook the morning food. Except for cooking, the brothers and sisters took care of everything in the kitchen.

After exercising, Xiao Yu washed the blue crabs given by the villagers yesterday and made raw crab porridge.This season is the time when the male crab paste is fat, it is not to mention how delicious it is to cook porridge.Yesterday, the villagers who accompanied the group sent a lot of fish and shrimp, but the fresh fish and shrimp could not be preserved, so Xiao Yu arranged to cook them for everyone to eat, and only kept some big blue crabs.

They didn't know when Pei Linzhi would come back, but they didn't wait for him, they just took out his share and put it in the pot to keep warm.After finishing the court food, Xiao Yu took Ji Hai and Yu'er to go out to chop trees and peel the bark.

The growth rate of the mulberry tree is very fast, and it can become useful in a few years. Its reproductive ability is also very strong, and it can become a forest in a few years. The hibiscus also grows into a large clump, and it is not painful to cut.Xiao Yu picked the ones that were as thick as the arm's arm, and it took a lot of effort to chop if it was too thick, and it was a lot of trouble to peel it if it was too thin, and there was too little bark.

He and Ji Hai took turns to cut down the tree, and Yu'er was responsible for peeling the bark.Not long after, Xiao Yu cut his arm sorely and numbly that he couldn't wield the hatchet, so Ji Hai took over the task of felling the tree.I don't know why he has endless energy at such a young age. It may be because of training since he was a child, or it may be because of his natural supernatural power, which is a material for martial arts. I don't know why Pei Linzhi didn't agree to teach him.

This was Pei Linzhi's own decision, and Xiao Yu didn't ask. He must have his own reasons for doing so.

The three of them worked all morning and finally got a bundle of bark.Ji Yu'er asked curiously: "Mr., what does the paper you're talking about look like? Can the tree belt be taken back to make paper?"

Xiao Yu said: "It's still early, and there is still work to do after we go back. We have to peel off the outer layer of the bark." This workload is greater than that of tree felling. Although it does not require much effort, it takes a lot of time.He has nothing else to do now, except that he has too much time and nowhere to put it, so let's take it slowly.

On the way back, Xiao Yu found a large palm forest again.The palm tree is a good thing. Its fruit can be used to extract oil, its leaves can be used to make fans and ropes, and the palm pieces at the bottom of the leaves can be used to make coir raincoats and mattresses.Now that he saw it, of course he couldn't let it go.

Seeing that he was going to cut palm leaves, Ji Hai asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to weave fishing nets?"

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment: "Fishing nets are also made of palm leaves?" He really didn't notice the villagers' fishing nets.

"Yes, this leaf is very powerful, we all use it to weave fishing nets." The fish said.

Xiao Yu smiled: "We don't make fishing nets, we get some back, I have other uses."

Xiao Yu and Ji Hai worked together and peeled off ten or twenty palm leaves.Xiao Yu still felt that this was not enough, at most he could only make a coir raincoat, but they couldn't move any more, so they had to give up and call Pei Linzhi to help another day, he has great strength.

When they returned home with a lot of harvest, Pei Linzhi had already returned and was peeling the rabbit skin.Seeing Xiao Yu and Yu'er carrying a large bundle of palm leaves, they quickly put down what they were holding and came to help.

One moment Xiao Yu felt that this thing hurt his hand, but the next moment he felt a lightness in his hand, and the strength was completely removed. Pei Linzhi held the palm leaf in one hand and asked, "Is this also used for making paper?"

Xiao Yu waved his hand: "No, the paper maker is at Jihai's place, and I'm making coir raincoats, so I won't be afraid of rain in the future. I also want to make some brown mats, so that the bed boards will not be so hard, and they can keep out the cold in winter."

Pei Linzhi looked at the leaves in his hands and couldn't help laughing. His Highness became very capable when he arrived in Yazhou. He could adapt everything to local conditions and maximize the use of resources.

Xiao Yu took a sip of water and said, "Of course it's not enough. Tomorrow, you can help me gather more. It's best to dig a few saplings and plant them in the yard. They will be used for making rice dumplings and fans."

Pei Linzhi's smile deepened: "Okay, I can go in the afternoon."

Xiao Yu asked: "Did you eat the rice? It was warmed in the pot. Did you get cold when you came back?"

"It's already eaten, it's still warm." Pei Linzhi put down the palm leaves and continued to work.

Xiao Yu saw the rabbit: "We can eat fried rabbit meat again at noon."

"Well, let me peel off the skin." Pei Linzhi said.

Xiao Yu said: "The leather at home can be used to sew a quilt."

Pei Linzhi said: "No hurry, I want to hunt some more rabbit skins and make a rabbit skin quilt for Mr. Lang, without mixing other furs."

Xiao Yu smiled: "Okay. But do you need to deal with those leathers? They are too hard."

"The fur still needs to be tanned again. Apply oil and beat it repeatedly to make it soft." Pei Linzhi finally found out what his highness can't do.

"It turned out to be like this, so use coconut oil, other oils are too smelly." He knew that the quilt made of animal fur would definitely smell, so he chose an acceptable smell.

"Listen to Mr. Lang."

Papermaking is a simple thing to say but tedious to do. Just removing the bark takes a day, because not removing the outer bark will not only affect the color of the paper, but also affect the quality of the paper.

Xiao Yu threw the packed bark into the water and soaked it for ten and a half months, and the matter was temporarily over.He deeply understands that papermaking is a troublesome thing, and he can't do it alone. If he wants a lot of paper, he must hire a special person to do it.

Xiao Yu was in trouble because he was worried that the disciples of the church would starve to death the master.He is not worried about spreading the technology of burnt lime, because lime is heavy and inconvenient to transport, so it can only be produced and sold locally, and the profit is limited.

But papermaking is different. The reason why non-governmental paper is so scarce is not only the high cost, but also the fact that the industry strictly controls the outflow of technology.Xiao Yu also wants to make some money by making paper. After all, lightweight paper can be sold inland as a commodity, and even sold overseas in exchange for the materials he needs.

He now knew why the ancients liked to buy slaves to work. The slaves they bought were from their own family members, so he didn't have to worry about them reinventing themselves and becoming his competitors in the future.But as a modern civilized person who was born in New China and grew up under the red flag and believed in the equality of all, Xiao Yu really could not accept human trafficking.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiao Yu decided to adopt the master-apprentice system. The ancient master-apprentice system was very strict. An apprentice would leave a teacher after a few years, and an apprentice would have to serve the master for a certain number of years before starting a new career. This is the tuition fee for learning skills.

This matter is just an idea in Xiao Yu's mind, and he hasn't put it into action yet, because he hasn't made his first piece of paper yet, and it's too early to start a workshop or something.

Next, Pei Linzhi went out to hunt every morning, and came back to process and tan the fur. He wanted to make a rabbit fur quilt for Xiao Yu before the weather turned cold.

The game at home was too much to eat, and I gave some to the neighbors, but there were still some leftovers.Xiao Yu marinated and dried the uneatable meat, and kept it to eat slowly.It sounds a bit sinful to say that many rabbits on the mountain suffered disasters in order to make quilts, but this is like rabbits eating grass and wolves eating rabbits. They are all for survival, and no one is right or wrong.

Xiao Yu has been weaving brown mats, put the coir raincoat aside, after all, spring is still far away, and winter is coming soon, in short, let's get through this winter first.

Pei Linzhi finally saved up enough rabbit skins, and asked the lady of the Meng family to sew the rabbit skins together.Yu'er can actually do this, but her hand red is too rough to meet Pei Linzhi's standard.

It was the first time that the Meng family saw so many rabbit skins. She touched the soft rabbit skins and said enviously, "Use this as a quilt so you don't have to worry about getting cold in winter."

Pei Linzhi said: "I would like to ask Mrs. Meng to help me sew the quilt. The two extra rabbit skins will be given to Siyuan to make a small jacket."

The lady of the Meng family quickly waved her hands: "You can't do it, Mr. Pei Lang and Mr. Xiao Lang are very kind to my family. I'm just doing a little favor. How can I accept your things."

Pei Linzhi said: "Madam Meng, please take it. In a few days, I will send some furs for Madam Meng to sew quilts and jackets. There are still many things that need to trouble you. It is cold in winter and the child is weak. Even if it is our husband Your love and compassion for your children."

Lady Meng was so touched that she put her hands together and said, "The two gentlemen are really the reincarnation of a merciful Bodhisattva."

The rabbit fur that Pei Linzhi used to make Xiao Yu's quilt was mainly gray and black, white rabbit fur was not used, because white was not resistant to dirt.But he also hunted some white rabbits, and prepared to sew a jacket for Xiao Yu.

The rabbit fur quilt has just been sewed, and the first cold wave of this winter is here.And it came fiercely. Yazhou, which was always sunny and warm, became cold, windy and rainy overnight, which caught the people of Yazhou by surprise.People could not adapt to this temperature difference, and many people were infected with wind chill.

Xiao Yu was also tricked, he sneezed and dripped, his throat was swollen and sore, the fish also had a fever, but fortunately Pei Linzhi and Ji Hai were safe and sound.Pei Linzhi wrapped Xiao Yu in a new rabbit fur quilt, and pressed him on the bed: "Lang Jun, lie down and rest, don't get up, be careful of the wind and cold getting worse."

The rabbit fur is really warm, Xiao Yu looked at the thinly dressed Pei Linzhi: "Rinzhi, are you cold?"

"I'm not afraid of the cold."

Xiao Yu reached out to touch his hand in disbelief, it was really warm, and he said, "Put the sheepskin on."

"I don't need it, the sheepskin has already covered the fish. I'll send the rabbit skin to Meng's house now and ask Mrs. Meng to sew you a jacket." Pei Linzhi said.

Xiao Yu huddled under the rabbit fur quilt: "I don't need it for the time being, you sew it for Ji Hai and Yu'er first, they are small and can't bear it physically."

Pei Linzhi frowned and looked at him: "You can bear it? Why are you still infected with the cold?"

Xiao Yu was momentarily at a loss for words.Pei Linzhi tucked the quilt up for him: "You don't need to worry about it, I have my own arrangements."

Xiao Yu instructed him again: "Use ginger and scallion to boil a pot of water, let's all drink a little, it can drive away the cold and sweat."

Pei Linzhi nodded, turned around and left. He actually didn't quite understand why His Highness is good at medicine again. It's better not to ask, because if you ask, it must be from the book again.

After dark, Pei Linzhi came over with the lamp in his hand, reached out and touched Xiao Yu's forehead, to make sure that he didn't have a fever, he said, "Mr., take a rest early and put on the quilt at night."

Xiao Yu asked: "What do Ji Hai and Yu'er cover at night?" He said to make a duvet, but there was not enough chicken and duck feathers, so he didn't make it at all.

"They covered them with two sheepskins." The sheepskins were originally quilts that Pei Linzhi sewed for himself.

"Then what are you covering for at night?"

Pei Linzhi said, "There are still a few pieces of fox fur."

Xiao Yu said: "Isn't that still unsewn? The fox fur is too small, why don't we squeeze together, this quilt is big enough."

Pei Linzhi looked at Xiao Yu, and nodded after a while: "Okay."
