The servant of Ying, the god of the Red Chamber, only loves farming

Chapter 57 Mining and Digging Stones to Build Things

"Really?" Wang Jing of Beijing was a little bit amused, although it was a question, but the tone was really firm.Zhou Fu stroked his beard. The King of Beijing Jing wanted to see those people, but it was getting dark and he would call the group of people back at this time for fear of causing disturbance; the King of Beijing Jing should give up first.

Zhou Fu's tent and Baoyu's tent were set up in two parts of the Beijing King's tent. Baoyu happily led Zhou Fu to his tent to rest.

When Xiren saw Zhou Fu, he was surprised at first and then happy, Xiren called out "Mr. Zhou."

On weekdays in the mansion, Mr. Zhou treats people kindly and rarely uses his status to overwhelm others; occasionally, he will let Xiren's girls follow him to listen to his lectures.

Xiren and her sisters also respected Zhou Fu very much. When Zhou Fu saw Xiren, he thought of me and said, "I almost forgot those two girls because I was busy with business." People call.

When Xiren saw the two familiar faces, his eyes turned red and he called out, "Why are you following me?" Xiren touched the face of the person on the left and pinched the nose of the person on the right; "Sheyue, Qiuwen! Why are you here?" Baoyu looked behind the two of them, "Where is Qingwen? Why don't you see her?"

Sheyue rubbed her tears and said, "Miss Erbao and Miss Xiangyun came before, and it was inconvenient for the three of us to come together; Qingwen stayed to serve Miss Xiangyun."

Baoyu was slightly disappointed that Qingwen didn't come, but she was very satisfied to see Sheyue and Qiuwen.

Baoyu thought for a while and asked worriedly: "How is the old grandmother? It's wrong for me to sneak out, and my father and mother are in good health?"

Sheyue and Qingwen have been together for a long time, and there are some similarities between their words, and said lightly: "Second Master, you know that you are afraid now." Qiuwen wanted to explain, but Sheyue stopped him; Wanting to know the situation at home, she turned to Zhou Fu for help: "Teacher..."

Seeing Baoyu's worried look, Zhou Fu knew that the child was probably thinking about his family in the past few days and said, "Don't worry, they are all just worried about you."

Baoyu grinned when she heard this, and Sheyue muttered, "Sir, you shouldn't have told him directly. He went to find the attacker by himself. It doesn't matter how many of our remaining maids have been beaten because of what happened to him." .”

Xiren listened to Sheyue's words with more complaints and said: "Sheyue!" Sheyue was just complaining casually, but now seeing that Baoyu listened to it a little bit, he knew that he had said something wrong, so he bit his lip and didn't say anything. up.

Baoyu lowered his head, walked up to Sheyue and Sheyue after a long time and said seriously, "I'm sorry. Baoyu only thought about herself but ignored you."

Musk Moon was a little flustered, but after hearing this sorry, she felt a little bitter in her heart.

Even if these slaves are loved by the master, how can they ever hear the master apologize?

Musk Moon said: "Don't take it to heart, I'm just muttering a few words. There's just one thing, I can't do it like this again in the future. If something happens to you, we girls will also worry about you ah."

Baoyu made a promise to several people. Zhou Fu saw that the four masters and servants had a deep relationship and couldn't bear to disturb them. He was afraid that these four people still had a lot to say, so he left alone.

After Zhou Fu left, Baoyu and Xiren took Sheyue to ask questions. When Baochai was mentioned, Baoyu asked curiously, "Sister Bao is really as you said?"

She Yuehui said: "Miss Baochai is not only outstanding in appearance, but her talent is also incomparable to the ladies in the mansion; but Miss Baochai is very friendly and gets along very well with the ladies in the mansion."

Baoyu thought of sister Daiyu from Uncle Lin's family, and after calculating that sister Daiyu and aunt should have gone to Jia's mansion, he asked, "How is Auntie and Cousin Lin? Why didn't I hear you mention it?" Baoyu thought of the prince of Beijing and showed it to him. Those few recipes for planting potatoes.

The handwriting is beautiful, and I think Daiyu is a very cute younger sister.

Sheyue stopped and looked slightly troubled, and then she said: "Miss Daiyu is afraid that she will not be able to go to Beijing in a short time." Muskyue's words made Xi Ren suspicious, "But... what happened?"

Musk Moon replied, "Mrs. Lin has gone, and Miss Daiyu is inconvenient to leave because she is in mourning; soon it will be next May."

Baoyu felt a little sad when he heard it. Although he had never met Jia Min, he had heard Lin Ruhai mentioned that Jia Min was a gentle and kind person... Wouldn't Uncle Lin and Sister Daiyu go to such a gentle person? Very sad?

Seeing her young master's sad appearance, Qiu Wen said: "It's been a while since this matter happened, and the second young master Lian has already passed away. Mrs. Lin is the young master's biological aunt, so it's okay for the young master to mourn as much as possible; it's just that the young master is young. If you are too sad, you may hurt your body."

She Yue hurriedly fetched two packages and interrupted: "Second Master Bao, Sister Xiren. Take a look at these, these two packages were brought by that girl Qingwen who forced me to bring them before I left."

After Baoyu took this matter to heart, he went to look at the package, which contained all Baoyu's favorite things in his daily life; there were also some newly made underwear, shoes and socks.Baoyu hugged these clothes happily, Xiren laughed and said, "Although Qingwen has a sharp mouth, but she has the most delicate heart." Xiren touched the body that Qingwen made for her.

She Yue said in a funny way: "That's not true, that girl said in front of Qiuwen and me that she was about to become a embroiderer; but she didn't stop working, she finally got out after a few nights."

Xiren was taken aback when he heard this, and carefully folded the clothes in his arms and put them on the hottest part of his chest; he said to Sheyue and Qiuwen, "No, you two are here too?"

Sheyue turned her face away and said awkwardly: "Who is for you, but we miss you. The second master is used to ordering us, and I am afraid that we will not be able to take care of him alone without you." Xiren smiled She smiled and didn't expose Musk Moon's words.

After King Bei Jing waited for the weekly payment, the work in hand also started to get on the right track.For several days, King Jing of Beijing and Zhou Fu were busy with the mine mining; Baoyu was not idle and silently gave Zhou Fu the rest of the mining safety knowledge.

Zhou Fu recruited another group of miners, and selected a few experienced old miners from them to integrate these contents based on their actual survey experience; the safety manual for mining was preliminarily finalized.

Of course, Dao Yi, Tan Luan's subordinate, also successfully moved the batch of matchlock guns away.

The confidants sent by the King of Beijing to keep an eye on the few people are reporting the matter to the King of Beijing who has returned to the tent at this moment, "Sure enough, as expected, those people took advantage of the decrease in the number of people in the camp these days; The gun moved away."

King Beijing Jing stopped what he was doing and asked, "Did they notice it?"

The confidant replied very confidently: "My lord, don't worry, those people have come to the camp to inquire about news during the day; the subordinates let people unintentionally release the news of the changing of the guard last night, and those people did it during the changing of the guard. I have followed them to find the dens of several people, and those matchlock guns are temporarily stored in an abandoned house on the outskirts of the city; I am afraid that these people will make a move in a few days."

King Bei Jing said good, "Look carefully, and I must find out the person who had an affair with them. This king will dig out that big melon along this vine!"

The confidant stepped back, and King Bei Jing continued to circle the blueprint in his hand.

"My lord! Mr. Zhou has dug up ore and wants to ask your lord to have a look!" A guard opened the curtain and came in with a bag of things in his hands. The guard spread out the package, and there were all kinds of ores inside; Beijing Wang was overjoyed.

After working hard for the past few days, there is finally movement in the quarry.

Baoyu is helping Sheyue take care of her treasures in her tent.

Baoyu looked at the pile of things that occupied half of her tent, and Sheyue wiped the utensils carefully with eyes as soft as water.

[The little girl's maid is very nice! 】Xiao Hua praised Musk Moon.

Musk Moon actually moved over half of the experimental instruments in Jia's mansion; besides the ones that Baoyu gave to Musk Moon at first, Musk Moon also researched some small things by himself.

This little girl is actually very talented in scientific research.

Musk Moon said with some pity: "It's a pity that the distillation device in the mansion is too big to carry." There was a sense of pity in those words. "

Qiuwen clicked her tongue and said: "You almost emptied the second master's laboratory, and you are still not satisfied."

Sheyue excitedly introduced these precious bumps to Baoyu, and Baoyu also curiously pulled Sheyue to ask questions until King Beijing sent a servant to call Baoyu away.

Baoyu entered the tent of King Jingjing, and his eyes were firmly glued to the ores on the ground.

"Baoyu, these were dug out from the mine; I'm not familiar with them, can you see if you know them?" Baoyu picked up the ore on the ground, and Xiaohua finished analyzing it at this moment.

[These ores are all feldspars, and they only show different colors when different metal elements are dissolved. 】

Baoyu relayed what Xiaohua had told him to King Beijing, who asked anxiously, "Can all these ores be used to make glass?" Baoyu touched the stones and replied, "Yes, brother Shui Rong; maybe we And make stained glass art!"

Baoyu thought of several other materials needed to make glass and asked, "Brother Water Soluble, where are the other ores?"

Shui Rong walked down and picked up an ore to observe, "Limestone and the quartz sand you mentioned are not difficult to find. As for soda ash, there is a salt lake a little farther from the northern border, so I found an alkali mine."

"That's great. We can start experimenting with the ratio of glass when we collect all these." Baoyu's face was flushed, and his eyes were full of expectation.

The king of Beijing Jing was also looking forward to it, secretly thinking in his heart that it was fortunate that Baoyu was with him on this trip; Baoyu can be regarded as his little lucky star.

It took more than a month, and the mining of the mine was almost complete; the king of Beijing Jing also wrote a book about the matter and sent it to the capital early.

Today I read the excerpt Long Yan Dayue in the court, and praised Baoyu a lot; Baoyu and King Beijing unexpectedly discovered a mine vein; and Zhou Fu and Shui Rong acted bravely and neatly. A mining safety handbook was produced for use by miners.

King Jing of Beijing specifically mentioned in the notebook that nearly half of the contents of the safety manual were written by Baoyu.

Baoyu was far away in the north and could not get any rewards for a while, but Jia Zhengzheng stood on the court and inherited a lot for Baoyu.

This time, some ores were sent back along with the notebook, and one of the ores was very rare and was kept in a box.There was also a piece of paper attached to the box.After reading the contents of the paper, Imakami couldn't calm down for a long time, and even burned the paper after reading it.

Fortunately, King Beijing brought this mine into the hands of the royal family as early as possible.

Today, he opened the box and took a look at the ore in the box. This ore is crystal clear but glows with a faint blue light, it is extremely rare.

The thing mentioned on that piece of paper is that there is a high probability that the mine will be able to open a similar gemstone cover again.

If such gems can still be produced in that mine, it would be a great loss to the dynasty and the country if it fell into the hands of others.

And thousands of miles away in the northern border, King Jing finally got several other materials he needed.
