Traveling back to ancient times begins with the use of stone tools
Chapter 75 Learning Task
It was temporarily impossible to illuminate the entire palace with electric lights. Leng Ruoxue took out the light bulbs made in the space, made wind turbines and batteries, and taught Eunuch Li how to install them. She then asked him to take them back to the palace as a temporary completion of the task.
By the way, I also brought 200 cans of canned strawberries, 200 cans of canned peaches, 200 cans of canned pears, and 200 cans of canned cherries.
200 bars of assorted soaps and 200 rolls of toilet paper.
Please ask Eunuch Li to tell the Emperor that the installation of electric lights in the entire palace still needs to be tested and only be installed after it is guaranteed to be safe.
Eunuch Li left her a sign and told her that if she had any news, she could just take the sign and enter the palace.
The granary of the county government was full, so the big grain merchants who had been contacted before transported part of the grain to Qingyuan County by land. After the water route was opened, they transported another part by water.
10 taels of silver bought 400 million kilograms of grain.
It is enough for a county resident to consume for one and a half years.
The greenhouse was built and the grown melon and vegetable seedlings were planted one after another.
In early November, 11 sets of cotton-padded clothes were received as relief and distributed to the villagers.
The roads have been built, the houses have been built, and greenhouses have been built on 30 acres of land in a village. The main reason is that there is not enough glass.
The villagers were arranged to burn the greenhouse and take care of the crops in the greenhouse, and the rest was to collect firewood and tree bark.
Everyone was also taught how to use the kang in the main room.
The people in the village also stored a lot of firewood at home.
If you can exchange one kilogram of rice a day or every few days, and have cotton-padded clothes and a kang, this winter may not be too difficult.
Those who were not there to take care of the greenhouse stepped up their work of chopping wood and tree bark.
The greenhouse is taken care of every three days. During the handover, everyone is very careful. The temperature of the greenhouse and the crops inside are related to the amount of food, so every seedling is carefully checked.
One kilogram of rice per person per day.
The county lady had a new task: to study and give rice to those who passed the exam.
There are opportunities for men, women, young and old.
Arabic numerals from 1 to 100 represent one pound of rice.
Memorize the multiplication formulas and do three test questions, complete, 5 kilograms of rice.
If you can read and write Pinyin, it means 5 kilograms of rice.
Teaching takes place in the village cooperative committee, where work points are recorded and rice is distributed.
The students of Mr. Liu had already learned it in advance. They also had a task, which was to copy basic literacy books such as the Three Character Classic and mark the pinyin for each character.
The process was carried out simultaneously in villages, county towns and towns.
In order to leave food for their children, the elderly would even sacrifice their lives. If they can no longer work, they can still carry things on their backs.
Moreover, for the elderly, they are only required to be able to recite, not to be able to write, and they pass the test if they know 5.
The whole family is learning. If they don’t know how to do something, someone will remind them. Especially the children, they learn very quickly.
In such an atmosphere, most of them passed the assessment.
Those who fail the assessment can still continue, as they are given two months anyway.
Now, although we can’t say that every family can have enough food, at least they won’t starve to death and can survive until the spring.
Leng Ruoxue breathed a sigh of relief and just waited to see what the harvest would be in a month.
It was snowing at the end of November, and Leng Ruoxue had just celebrated her 11th birthday. There was no groundbreaking work to do, so only planning could be done.
Two towns and a county seat.
People in towns and county towns generally live better than those in the villages. Those who are particularly poor and cannot survive can go to the county government and ask to be incorporated into Fufeng Village.
Everyone in Fufeng Village knew the name of the village. No one was willing to go to Fufeng Village until the last step, so no one really asked the county government for help.
Poor eunuch Li came back again and asked to make three more sets of power generation equipment.
They brought a large amount of copper wire imitating silver wire, as well as copper, iron ore and rewards.
For the sake of copper and iron ore, Leng Ruoxue agreed.
Moreover, Liu Ruxu and Leng Ruoxue were also invited to attend this year's palace banquet.
To others, it is a good thing, but to Leng Ruoxue, it is a trouble.
She had to go and thank God happily...
It takes 10 days to travel by water and 20 days by land, so Leng Ruoxue only has about 15 days.
She also had to get the power generation equipment ready before the New Year's banquet.
"Eunuch Li, I'm busy making something to generate electricity, so this rule..."
The palace was very considerate and even sent a nanny to teach the palace rules.
"The county lady can learn on the way, Madam, you can learn now, don't worry, Madam Gao is the kindest in the palace, and the things the county lady sent to the palace are very much to her liking, the palace has already explained everything."
What could Leng Ruoxue say? She could only feel sorry for Liu Ruxu.
Liu Ruxu didn't feel wronged. Moreover, she learned very quickly. Even Nanny Gao was surprised and thought she had learned it in advance.
Things to prepare for the trip, including the necessary clothes for the imperial decree, and Leng Ruoxue picked out a few pieces of cloth as a reward. She designed a few sets of parent-child clothes herself and had the maid and embroiderer in the villa make them quickly.
The vegetables in the greenhouse have been produced gradually, and the pigs in Lengjia Village have been slaughtered. The two shops rented in the city have started business.
Leng Ruoxue asked the greenhouse to pick a batch of fruits the day before she left, ready to take them to the capital.
Leng Ruoxue didn't relax until she got on the boat.
The boat was arranged by Eunuch Li, a large two-decker ship. The people brought by Eunuch Li, Leng Ruoxue's family, Grand Secretary Liu and several of his disciples were there. Leng Zejin also shamelessly came on board. He couldn't go to the palace banquet without an invitation, but he wanted to go to the capital to build up his connections.
The three ships at the back were loaded with three sets of power generation equipment and the gifts that Leng Ruoxue brought.
The other two ships were for escorting officers and soldiers.
The officers and soldiers coming out of the capital had no shortage of silver. They ordered a lot of vegetables at one tael of silver per pound, and even ordered 10 pigs that had just been slaughtered in Lengjia Village.
The journey lasted 10 days and the group replenished supplies three times. Apart from getting off the boat to walk around, they hardly had anything else to replenish their supplies, so they brought enough with them.
Leng Ruoxue began the painful journey of learning etiquette.
The day before getting off the boat, Leng Ruoxue found Liu Ruxu.
"Mother, I want to give Dad 3 taels of silver and some fruits and vegetables so that he can move around the capital."
Leng Ruoxue only then realized that there were many people with the title of general. Many of the guards escorting on the ship behind were generals. Although Leng Zejin had a military rank, he had no background and it would be difficult for him to be assigned to a position with real power.
The general above him was called back to the capital, so the generals who had just been promoted below him had not yet been assigned specific positions.
The Ministry of War needs to make unified arrangements.
Apart from the 1000 taels of silver awarded on the day she was made a general, her father only received 200 taels of silver in military pay every year, so he was very poor.
For her now, it is very poor.
For ordinary people, it was considered very wealthy. After all, two taels of silver could support a family for a year.
"You decide on these. I still have 5 taels of silver. If it's not enough, you can ask me for help."
Leng Ruoxue may not rely on her father, but Leng Yuxuan does.
It is not a problem for Leng Zejin to support his family just by relying on the annual military salary, but if he wants to become more wealthy, it would be a bit difficult.
Only if you are assigned a position with real power can you gain more benefits and opportunities for advancement.
