The cannon fodder through the book will live to the end

The first family is Mrs. Liu's family in the east of the city.

Mrs. Liu lost her husband in her early years and raised her three children by herself.But she has an optimistic and tenacious personality, and she is well-organized in dealing with people and doing things.With the help of my brothers, I also do some handicrafts myself, and I survived even the most difficult days.

Now that the children are grown up and married, everyone is filial, and the life of the whole family is peaceful and beautiful.She went to the street that day, and happened to hear that there were some free things to give away, so she hurried to watch the excitement.Originally, when I heard that there were only three places in Pankang, I thought it was not my turn, but I didn't expect that I would get another place.

Mrs. Liu didn't know that the free quota was to repair a kang for people until someone notified her.She had never heard of a fire kang, and only after listening to the explanation did she realize that it was a novel thing for heating in winter, and it was better than a charcoal basin.Mrs. Liu felt very curious after hearing the explanation.

But the news came from the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, and Aunt Liu believed it in her heart.In this northwestern Yunzhou, who doesn't know that it is King Zhenbei who fought against the Turks outside the Great Wall to defend their homeland.The king of Zhenbei has absolute authority here, and they believe in the prince.

At this time, Mrs. Liu's family not only had their family but also neighbors, all of whom were waiting to witness the free kang in Mrs. Liu's house.They talked about all kinds of trivial things while waiting to witness novel objects.

Not long after, a group of people wearing the same clothes came over.When you get closer, you can see that there are some energetic young men with neat postures, all of them with guys.But there was an older man leading the team first.After a closer look, did someone recognize that this is Liu Lao Si, a craftsman who often helps people repair houses?

Liu Laosi straightened his waist and walked in front.He signed an agreement with the Wangfu, and he was regarded as a hired worker of the Wangfu. Not to mention the basic monthly money, as long as the people he brought out made a kang in the city, he would share half of the profit.This made Liu Lao Si overjoyed.

The status of craftsmen is low, except for a small group of skilled craftsmen, everyone else can only barely make ends meet.Now he has signed an agreement with the palace, not to mention the simple food and clothing solution, but also allows the family's wife, children and children to live a good life.Days like this have only been imagined in dreams before.And all this is thanks to the noble princess in the palace.

The concubine taught him the skill of pan-kang, which he had never seen before, which was no less than preaching and teaching.Craftsmen attach the most importance to the inheritance of technology.If it weren't for the situation, Liu Laosi would call Wangfei his master.Liu Laosi was very grateful to the princess, so he was even more concerned about the Pan Kang team ordered by the princess.

Liu Laosi knew how effective the heated kang could be in the cold winter, so he wanted to let the whole Yunzhou see the power of the heated kang.He also hopes that so many people will not freeze to death this winter.

Someone recognized the energetic Liu Lao Si, but was a little uncertain, so he asked, "Oh, you are Liu Lao Si, right? I asked you to repair my house!"

Liu Laosi smiled and said, "It's me, I am Liu Laosi. This is Mrs. Liu's house. We came from the palace to repair the heated kang for your house."

The onlookers whispered while making way for a group of people.

"It's really Liu Laosi. I heard what he means. He brought people here to repair this heated kang."

"I don't think I've seen him repair any kang before? Does he still have this skill?"

"I haven't seen him with this skill. Doesn't he just help people repair houses? Can he?"

"Don't worry about whether Liu Laosi can do it or not, look at the young men who are following him, they look energetic. Maybe Liu Laosi can't repair the heated kang, but they can."

"That's right, that's right. After all, he came out of the palace!"

......

Regardless of what other people said, Liu Laosi went directly to the owner's house.

"It's Mrs. Liu. Someone sent a notice before, asking you to pack up a clean place against the wall and come out. You should get it done."

Mrs. Liu nodded quickly when she heard this, "It's packed, it's in the room inside."

Liu Laosi hurriedly took people in to measure the place.Then I found an empty space in the yard and got busy.Since they are repairing the kang for free, everything is ready.All that needs to be done now is the site and mud bricklaying.

So the people watching saw Liu Lao Si and a few big and small guys, and quickly leaned against the wall to form a strange shape with bricks.Add height and thickness, and finally cover with a board.Then there is another person who comes to burn firewood.

Everyone looked at it simple, but found it strange.After the real firewood is burned and the heat rises, I realize the function of this heated kang with hindsight.Liu Yuan, the second son of Mrs. Liu's family, boldly went up to touch the surface of the kang, and felt a burst of heat, but it was not burning.

Liu Yuan quickly turned his head to look at Aunt Liu, "Mother, this is a good thing, it's not hot at all when it's hot. If you lie on it in winter, your legs and feet won't have to catch the cold."

Mrs. Liu heard what her son said, so she came to touch it herself, and it was really warm.But when she saw the firewood burning at the stove, she couldn't help worrying, "How much firewood do you have to burn?"

Before Liu Lao Si could answer, Liu Yuan hurriedly said, "Mother, don't worry about the firewood. I'll go to the mountain tomorrow and come back to chop some more firewood."

Looking at the happy scene at Mrs. Liu's house, Liu Laosi said with a smile: "It won't cost too much firewood. You can see the stove above. You can cook food and water on this stove. There is The hot air will still flow into the kang. And as long as the heat is maintained, there will be hot water for drinking in cold weather. This is killing two birds with one stone."

Mrs. Liu nodded, her mind turned around, and she realized that the heated kang was really a good thing.More importantly, this thing is free, and I didn't pay a penny.Thinking of this, she realized that since these masters entered the house, they have been busy, and they didn't even prepare a bowl of water at home, which was really rude.

Mrs. Liu signaled her daughter-in-law beside her to pour water, and said, "Masters have been busy all morning, you are tired, hurry up and drink some water. It will be noon soon, let's have lunch here, just old lady There is nothing good at home, I hope you don't dislike it."

Liu Laosi and the others were sweating all over, just in time to drink some water to quench their thirst.He quickly took the water and thanked him while saying, "Sister Liu, don't worry about it, we're leaving after drinking the water. I also asked other families to repair the kang."

After finishing speaking, he put down the empty bowl in his hand and called the others to go out together.

At this time, a neighbor who had been watching from the side saw the benefits of the heated kang, and hurriedly asked: "Master Liu, how much does it cost you to repair the heated kang? I think this heated kang seems to be very useful. If it is not expensive, give it to my family." Get one too."

Liu Laosi turned his head back with a smile, and said what he had been told several times before going out: "It doesn't cost much to repair this heated kang. If you prepare the loess and sand yourself, it will be cheaper. If your family also If you want to repair the heated kang, you can go to the outside of the palace to sign up, and there is a stall over there that is responsible for this. After we have finished the people who have made an appointment to repair the heated kang, we will go door-to-door to repair the heated kang in the order of registration."

Hearing this, some people in the neighborhood were moved, and after thinking about it, they went to the palace to have a look.There are also some people who want to wait and see again to see what other people think.

......

Time soon arrived at night, and Tao Anran received a list of people who signed up to repair the kang today, not many, just a few.As for the people who want to learn how to repair the kang, there is no one.

He was not surprised, after all, today was the first time those ordinary people saw the kang.I believe that after they see the benefits of the heated kang, they will all be scrambling to repair the heated kang.

With such a beautiful vision in mind, Tao Anran has been waiting.Sure enough, within two days, after the gimmick that was publicized at the beginning, the three people who repaired the kang for free were all done.More people are beginning to realize the novelty and function of heated kang.As a result, more and more families planned to repair the kang.

Especially after another howling north wind, the temperature dropped extremely rapidly.Those who built the heated kang first really felt the warmth of the heated kang.In the cold weather, the house is warm, and the face is ruddy.It is completely different from the days when we were frozen together in the past.

Now, those who didn't repair the heated kang, seeing this scene, hurried to find the pan kang team to repair the heated kang for their families.It's a pity that after the cold weather, the amount of work increased sharply, and if you want to repair the kang, you have to wait in line.

There was a farmer named Tian Ye, because he had relatives living in the city, and it happened to be the season when he came to the city to sell things and walk around.When I was at a relative's house, I heard about the novelty fire kang that appeared in Yunzhou City recently. I also experienced the warmth of the fire kang in my relative's house, and immediately realized that it was a good thing.

In particular, I heard that there are elderly people at home, let the elderly lie on the kang, it means that the whole body is stretched, and the spirit is much better.

When Tian Ye heard this, his heart moved. He is a filial man and has an old mother in his family.He also wanted to make life easier for his old mother in the cold weather.He didn't need to inquire much to know how much it would cost to repair a heated kang.Although the money is not much, the peasant's family didn't have much money at first. If the kang is repaired, the food and clothes in winter will be saved.

Tian Ye couldn't make up his mind, but heard from his relatives that the orders for repairing the heated kang were now in the queue for ten days, and if he didn't sign up for the repair of the heated kang, it would be difficult to repair the heated kang when the weather was cold.Having said that, Tian Ye was a little anxious.

While he was reluctant to part with the money for repairing the heated kang, he was also greedy for the heated kang.Finally he made up his mind and thought about going to have a look first, and ask the master who repaired the heated kang if he could build a smaller heated kang, would it be cheaper.

Yunzhou City is neither big nor small.However, repairing the kang is a new thing recently, and some idlers like to watch the excitement.As soon as Tian Ye inquired about it, he knew that the Pan Kang team was working in a family not far away.
