The whole family traveled through ancient times with their house

After the Chinese New Year, the days seemed to pass very quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the first month of the year was over, and the snow on the ground gradually melted, revealing the dark soil in some places.

After Jiang Yan discussed with Ye Zhan, Jiang Yan drew a picture of a plowshare and went to find Zhang Xiaoqi.

When Zhang Xiaoqi and Guan heard Jiang Yan say that this plowshare was used for plowing fields, they immediately became interested.

After Zhang Xiaoqi understood the use of the plowshare from Jiang Yan, he immediately took the pattern and rode to the centurion's office, and then took Captain Ye with him to the thousand-household office.

Captain Dong is very busy now, as he is in charge of ten 100-household offices. Whenever he gets tired or annoyed, he wants to quit.

But he thought of what his brothers said. If someone else became the captain, he and his brothers would be bullied again, so he endured it.

Now he was worried because spring plowing was about to start, and he wanted all the military households in the thousand-household unit to plant more sorghum so that Madam Jiang could make wine.

But there were only so many military households in the entire Qianhu Suo, and they could only cultivate so much land. Military households were also human beings, with flesh and blood, and it was impossible for them to work the way he imagined.

Oh, why is it so difficult to do something?

Captain Dong was feeling extremely anxious when he heard someone outside reporting that Captain Ye and Zhang Xiaoqi had arrived.

When he heard the names of these two people, the annoyance in his heart disappeared instantly.

He had a feeling that they would bring him good news.

Captain Dong invited Captain Ye and Zhang Xiaoqi in with great anticipation, and Zhang Xiaoqi couldn't wait to take out the pattern from his arms.

After Captain Dong heard what Zhang Xiaoqi said, he couldn't help but shout out, "I knew it. Madam Jiang is our benefactor."

"Boss is right, Madam Jiang is our benefactor."

"Let's go to the blacksmith camp. I want to watch them fight it myself."

"Eh."

On their way to the blacksmith camp, Zhang Xiaoqi remembered something. "Boss, Madam Jiang also said that if we had enough power, we could install two or even more plowshares."

"Did Madam Jiang really say that?"

"Yes. How could I lie to the boss about such an important matter?"

"Good, that's great. If we had two horses pulling two plowshares, or even three, we could plow the fields much faster."

Captain Dong was so excited that he even thought the horse was running too slowly, which attracted the attention of the passing soldiers, who thought something important had happened.

Captain Dong ignored the looks of others and continued to urge his horse forward.

When they arrived at the blacksmith camp, they happened to see General Ming also coming to inspect the blacksmith camp and urge them to make this batch of weapons.

When General Ming saw Captain Dong coming over, he thought he had something to ask him. But after seeing the drawings Captain Dong brought out, he exclaimed, "This is a great thing."

Next, the two people who should have been the busiest people in Blackrock City temporarily put down what they were doing and sat in the blacksmith camp to watch the blacksmith forge iron.

The leader of the blacksmith camp, seeing that General Ming and Captain Dong were eager to see this thing, asked his blacksmiths to do their best to make it quickly.

After receiving the order and knowing that this was something important, the two master blacksmiths from the blacksmith camp went out.

An hour later, the prototype of the plowshare was ready.

After Zhang Xiaoqi confirmed it, he told the two master chefs what Madam Jiang had said.

The two master craftsmen also understood that this was used for plowing the fields, and they put some of their own ingenuity into it, just to make the plowshare more perfect.

When General Ming and Captain Dong learned that the plowshare was completed, they immediately had someone put it on the plow handle.

Captain Dong and Zhang Xiaoqi personally drove the horses to conduct experiments. Even though most of the land had not yet thawed, the frozen soil was plowed up wherever the plowshare passed.

Seeing the frozen soil still covered in ice, Captain Dong was excited. "General Ming, if all our captains used this kind of plowshare, I'm sure our grain production would increase."

General Ming understood the meaning behind Captain Dong's words and quickly corrected him, "Old Dong, you can't just think about your Captain's Office."

Captain Dong also knew what General Ming was worried about, so he immediately replied with a smile, "I was just thinking that this plowshare was the idea of ​​Madam Jiang from our Captain's Office, so our Captain's Office should have used it first."

"Well, you guys go first." General Ming immediately ordered, "First, make a hundred plowshares for Captain Dong."

Upon hearing that there were only a hundred plowshares, Captain Dong immediately objected, "General, a hundred plowshares are not enough for our captains. We need at least a thousand."

"Old Dong, even if you eat meat, you should let others have some soup. Besides, it's the lean season now, and we have to be on guard against the northern barbarians. The blacksmith camp is the busiest at this time of year, they have to repair and forge weapons. You said you would make you a hundred plowshares first, isn't that enough?"

"That's quite a lot."

Captain Dong knew that the number of plowshares was small, but he couldn't force them.

Zhang Xiaoqi, however, didn't care and told Captain Dong his idea directly in front of everyone: "Boss, our flag must have at least ten plowshares."

Captain Dong listened to Zhang Xiaoqi's words and agreed without hesitation. But he also had his own requirements: "This year, your flag must grow half as much grain as last year."

Zhang Xiaoqi: "As long as Madam Jiang is here, this won't be a problem."

Jiang Yan didn't know that her reputation had been blown out by Zhang Xiaoqi again.

Because Ye Xiner's wedding date is approaching, Jiang Yan drove a carriage today and took the women of the Ye family into Black Stone City to do some shopping.

In front is Ma Ji Cloth Shop, which is said to be the largest cloth shop in Black Stone City.

Just now, Mrs. Ye and her two sisters-in-law helped Old Madam Ye go in to buy cloth, and Jiang Yan stayed to watch the carriage.

Yichen got bored of staying in the carriage, so she lifted the curtain and sat next to her mother.

Jiang Yan couldn't help but laugh as she watched her daughter's dangling legs, looking contented. "If you don't want to go shopping, why are you still coming along? Aren't you afraid of the carriage shaking your butt?"

"Mom, you should understand that sitting in a carriage and watching people coming and going is much more comfortable than being squeezed in with a group of people."

Jiang Yan: Of course she understood, otherwise she wouldn’t have told Old Madam Ye that she wanted to stay and look after the carriage.

But it wasn't easy for them to come to Black Rock City, so they asked their daughter, "Chenchen, do you want to buy anything?"

"Buying things? Not yet. But I can think of anything you need."

The mother and daughter were whispering when they heard the crack of a whip, followed by the official's shouting: "We've arrived at Black Stone City. Hurry up and go to the county government office to report. This will complete our escort mission."

"That's right. It's just that we guys are unlucky. We have to take on this difficult job before the New Year is over."

Thinking that this was just another bunch of poor people who hadn't gained anything on the way, the official who had just spoken became even more angry and raised the whip in his hand again.
