Chapter 213 [Letter from afar]

  The objects in the house are mostly bamboo and wood, such as tables, chairs, wardrobes, bookshelves, beds, pen holders and pen holders.

  He doesn't drink water or tea in the bedroom, so there are no ceramics in this room.

   Then there are bronze wares, such as oil lamps used for lighting, which are made of bronze. This is also the easiest metal for Fang Chang to obtain at present. After all, there are a lot of them in one furnace, and there is no shortage of ore except for the cost of charcoal.

  Although the copper mine contains silver in addition to the associated tin, which does not require smelting, he does not often use it because the amount is not large. For a long time, Fang Chang, in addition to using silver to make small parts such as the mouth of the hairpin and gourd, also made a few silver plates and bowls, as well as today's window hinges and nails inlaid with glass, and the rest was used for road expenses when going down the mountain.

   This kind of precious metal can be exchanged for money at the foot of the mountain, and it takes up less space than copper ingots, so it is more suitable for carrying with you. Otherwise, if you walk a little farther, it would be too scary to carry a large number of copper ingots down the mountain to exchange money.

  The most conspicuous thing in the house is a spinning wheel.

  It is exactly the same as the common household spinning wheel at the foot of the mountain. It is a simple wooden frame with a large rope wheel with a handle on it, which is linked to a spindle shaft. This kind of rope wheel structure can make the spindle rotate at a uniform speed and is not easy to break.

  Yunzhong Mountain is always so rich in products. The reason for making this spinning wheel is that when Fang Chang was wandering in the mountains in spring, he saw wild silkworms, so he caught them and raised them, and got a lot of cocoons.

  After processing the silkworm cocoons, when he had nothing to do, he built this spinning wheel, which can spin silk into thread.

  Furthermore, Fang Chang also has a lot of cotton seeds on hand, which he obtained when he went down the mountain last year, and he has already found a suitable place to sow them. Wait for it to germinate and bloom, then it can be collected and used, but when the time comes, it will be necessary to make matching slingshot bows and the like.

   At that time, this hand spinning wheel can not only spin silk thread, but also cotton and linen.

Now Fang Chang has very little material at hand. After spinning the silk thread, he just accumulated it, but he still made some needles with bronze. Sometimes the clothes were damaged, so he sewed them a few times. After all, the descaling technique can only remove dirt, not fill it. loophole.

  He plans to build a simple loom to weave thread into cloth when he has more spindles.

  Whether it is used as curtains or bedding, it is excellent. But there is no need to make the clothes on his body - he is used to customizing at the foot of the mountain.

   Sit down on the seat, take out two books and read carefully.

  The glass window has very good light transmission, bright and clear, as if the window was opened, but there is no wind blowing in to shake the corner of the book, which is enough to make all scholars in the world envious.

   Before I knew it, it was already meal time.

  A Niu, who is practicing cooking skills, is in charge of cooking. Now his skills are very good, and the food he cooks looks decent.

   "Master, dinner is ready—"

"OK."

   Fang Chang responded, closed the "Miscellaneous Notes on Geography, Mountains and Rivers" in his hand, and put it on the bookshelf. This book was copied by myself after borrowing it from the mountain god, and it was originally returned to Zhang Chun.

  Walking out of the palace gate, there were already several dishes on the stone table under the ginkgo tree in front.

  In Yunzhong Mountain in summer, food is everywhere, and the same food is not repeated every day. After hunting resumes, there are also dishes made of fresh meat on the table, but Ah Niu still prefers to be vegetarian.

However, the staple food such as millet, wheat, and sorghum grown on Xianqi Cliff has not been sufficient. After all, there were few acres of land reclaimed on the cliff before, and the harvest was limited. Most of the time, it was filled with sweet potatoes, wild beans, and various nuts, or directly Main food is meat and vegetables.

   Fortunately, whether it is Fang Chang or A Niu, eating is more of a sense of ritual, and they are not picky eaters.

The dishes on the table are cooked with all kinds of color, fragrance and delicious taste. Although there are not many seasonings and the cooking utensils are a bit simple, but such dishes as loofah, kidney beans, shallots, cress, eggplant, pumpkin and other colorful dishes are placed on the table, which looks like Just pleasing to the eye. There is also a large bowl of braised meat, with homemade sweet potato vermicelli on the bottom, steamed soft and crispy, with a strong aroma that lingers on the tongue.

   "A Niu, your craft is getting better and better."

  Fang Chang laughed, but before Ah Niu could answer, he suddenly put down his chopsticks and looked into the clouds in the distance. A Niu was very puzzled, and followed Master's gaze to look into the distance.

  In an instant, a piece of paper came from afar.

  Fang Chang copied it casually and took it in his hand, but it was a paper airplane. Of course, this paper plane also has other names, such as Zhang Chun, the mountain god, called it a "flat-headed bat". Although they did not speak when handing it over to Yu Qingling and Liu Yuande, they should have a special name for it.

   Well, he already knew that the source of this paper airplane was Yu Qingling and Liu Yuande.

  Unfolding it gently, there are densely packed small characters written on it, the handwriting is clear and beautiful, which shows the master's skills. Fang Chang looked at the inscription first, and it turned out to be Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling, but this word should be written by Liu Yuande, after all, he is a person who has studied for many years and almost went to the imperial examination.

"I see."

   After reading it in a hurry, Fang Chang put down the paper and let out a soft breath.

   Regarding the information received by Master, Ah Niu didn't ask or read it, but just kept eating.

  Fang Chang didn't tell himself the content of it, the registered disciple who was about to go down the mountain. Knowing too much about some things is not necessarily a good thing, it is a great blessing to be plain.

  Liu Yuande and Yu Qingling were involved in a lot of disturbances after they were escorted and left southern Xinjiang. Through the various things they encountered and the information they obtained through their own channels, they deduced some situations.

  Remembering that Mr. Fang was the most familiar and most powerful practitioner among the practitioners they met, they used the paper left by Fang Chang to write down the relevant information.

  The organizations of monsters have gained the upper hand in many parts of the world, and turmoil has broken out everywhere.

  There are also heroes everywhere, raising their own troops, some rebelling, and some fighting. Often practitioners join in, and many places have become a mess, and the people of the Li people are miserable and displaced.

  After this escort, they also gained a lot of strength and a lot of prestige. Many people from the Jianghu did not leave, but followed the two together, incorporated a few scattered teams, and were preparing to find reliable rebels to join.

  Yu Qingling and Liu Yuande learned on the way that the layout of the monster organizations is a "starry sky", and they have deployed manpower in all state capitals.

   To this end, there are four branch halls in the southeast, northwest, respectively, in the East China Sea Islands, the southern border jungle, the western desert, and the northern ice field, which are inaccessible places, specially for the monsters to continuously train their subordinates.

   It is estimated that in a few years, the other party's shortage of manpower in various state capitals will be made up for.

  At that time, the situation in the world will definitely be more severe.

  Yu Qingling and Liu Yuande said that they plan to find a reliable rebel army and see if they can organize an expedition to the Quartet.
