The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 294: Taking Uncle Around (Part 2)

Yan Yu was numb.

Uncle's head must be a collection of the beauty of the world and the essence of the Yan family's ancestors from generation to generation.

The positions of the so-called four archery towers are four triangles, the city wall is a line, and nothing else is drawn. Is this also conceivable?

"That's right! Dad said we'll fence it up in the future, and the grandpas in the village say it's good and safe, hehe!" Yan Yuquan pushed her on her father's head, and very interestingly pulled the village elders to help her father share the burden.

Yan Huaiwen asked about the specific size and style of the archery tower.

Yan Yu shook her head resolutely, saying she didn't know.

"These are all discussed by Father and Master Lu. Here and here are all painted by Master Lu."

Yan Huaiwen took Yan Yu to Qi's house.

Ask Master Lu face to face.

Master Lu was a little cautious at the beginning, Yan Laoer was very easy to deal with, and the people in this village were really kind, but this scholar, he really admired his name for a long time.

Unexpectedly, the first time he spoke, it was Mr. Xiucai who politely asked him for advice.

Master Lu: "I don't dare to ask Yan Hushu for advice. I drew the size according to the drawings and requirements given by my brother. This archway is quite similar to the stacks of our frontier defense. It is higher, with a solid bottom, stairs inside, and four sides outside... …

It's not difficult, I plan to build a wooden frame first, and then use cement bricks inside and out, and when the opening is closed, pour mortar and plaster inside, the advantage of this is that it is strong and not easy to crack..."

Master Lu talked eloquently, and he was clearly confident about this watchtower.

He grew up in a border town, and several generations built houses. He knows how the city defenses were built and what materials were used.

After Yan Huaiwen thanked him, he said a few words to the old lady of Qi's family, and left.

After leaving the door of Qi's house, he asked: "How many people can we settle the money for building our house with Mr. Lu?"

Yan Yu shook his head: "Not yet, all the accounts in our village are hung at our house, there are those who build the stove on the kang, those who wipe the cesspit, and those who put tiles on the roof..."

Master Lu took care of almost all the work in their village.

As more and more people in the village have income, more and more people are looking for Master Lu and others to work. It can be said that they are busy day and night.

Now he builds a house for Qi's family during the day, does some small work at night, and takes care of three meals at Yan's house.

Second Yan saw how hard they were working, so he specially told Nanny Rong to save more dry food at noon or at night for them to carry when they go to work at night, so as not to be hungry.

So just working day and night like this, Master Lu and the others are not tired and thin, on the contrary, they are more energetic than when they came.

Yan Yu was afraid that her uncle would misunderstand that her father was not in a hurry, so she said again: "Master Lu said that there is no rush, but father thought it would be wrong not to give it, so he gave twenty taels first, and the rest will be calculated later."

She handles all the big and small accounts in the family, and there is nothing she doesn't know about money.

Yan Huaiwen is familiar with the temperament of his family members.

He also knows that Tianyou is lazy and has left all the calculations to Xiao Er.

So there is this question.

Yan Huaiwen said in a low voice: "Master Lu and the others are working hard, so it's not good to make people worry about the wages. Since the house at home is completed, the money will be paid first.

If the work of the villagers is completed, it should be the same.

If you find it troublesome, you can set a cycle, one knot every five days, or one knot every ten days, whichever is fine. "

Yan Yu secretly smiled, and responded crisply: "Understood, uncle!"

It wasn't her father, as if he was afraid that Master Lu and the others would run away, he kept procrastinating, but he didn't want to settle the settlement.

Master Lu is a loyal person, he was fooled by his few words, and he didn't go home, so he stayed in Xiao'an Village to help build his hometown...

Now that the Arrow Tower was mentioned, Yan Yu first took Yan Huaiwen to the field next to the forest.

"Uncle, this land is going to be used for planting trees. My father said that it is good to plant fruit trees. From now on, our family will have fruits to eat every year. If there are too many, we can make sugar water and dry fruits. Uncle, do you remember the time I brought you?" Dried apricot meat, it is planted with the stone.

I didn't buy too many saplings, they cost tens of pennies, and they were expensive. It's better to buy fruit, which can be eaten and planted.

Look at these little seedlings, they are all growing! "

Yan Huaiwen has seen the fruit trees, so of course he will not miss the training ground that was "damaged" by the Boy Scouts.

He looked at Xiao Er, waiting for her explanation.

Yan Yu smiled brightly: "Uncle, let's take a look at this first. It is a rabbit we caught. It has been raised for a long time, and it is about to give birth to a baby rabbit..."

"There are also these, which are cement bricks saved by the children in the village. My father and I went out, and I was shocked when I came back. I didn't expect there to be so many..."

If the uncle's gaze had any substance, Yan Yu finally reached the training ground.

"This is the training ground for our Boy Scouts!"

She took a breath, raised her head and chest, and moved her qi to her dantian.

The voice gradually became louder.

"We are not a group of children who only know how to play around, we are little warriors who have experienced battles!

Bei Rong can climb mountains, maybe also swim, we have to train ourselves, run fast, jump high, hide, hide and climb trees... In the future we will learn to drive, ride a donkey, swim..."

Yan Yu clenched her little fist.

Declare loudly.

She is not Lao Yan's niece now, but the leader of the Boy Scouts.

Let Lao Yan know and see all the efforts they have made.

Don't discriminate against them because of their age.

Yan Huaiwen's eyes fell on several conspicuous archery targets not far away.

Yan Yu's heart was beating a drum.

The name of the drum beat is—anxiety.

"There are bows in the village, and we made a few small bows to practice." Her eyes were firm and serious: "Uncle, we have to practice, otherwise, if we touch the bow in the future, our hands will be raw and we will not be able to shoot accurately."

Not everyone has the talent for archery, but the most fearful thing about any skill is to practice more.

Practice makes perfect.

How many people are not talented enough, relying on this word "cooked" to excel!

"Xiao Er, is it the boy scouts who found the traces of Bei Rong on the mountain?" Yan Huaiwen asked suddenly.

Yan Yu nodded slowly.

"What would happen if you had weapons, bamboo crossbows?" he asked.

Yan Yu felt that the answer to this question was very important.

She was full of thoughts and didn't answer for a long time.

Yan Huaiwen didn't urge him, but just waited quietly.

"They have bows in their hands, and I heard that Bei Rong is good at riding and shooting. We... can't take advantage of the forest, so we will still go down the mountain to report.

It's better to ambush in the village..." Yan Yu said truthfully.

"However, if there is a high wall surrounding the village, and there are archery towers around, it will be different. We can stand on it and shoot arrows. Even if we are not as accurate as Uncle Hu and Uncle Hu, there are so many of us, we can still shoot them to death."

"Bamboo crossbow..." Yan Huaiwen's eyes flickered, and his voice was as light as smoke: "There is no bamboo here..."

"Yes, yes!" Yan Yu's ears were sharp, and her crisp voice was full of joy: "My father and I found it in Guiyuan Town near the sea! It's not expensive, we can afford it!"

Yan Huaiwen gave her a deep look, quickly retracted it, and said softly: "It's not easy to hide..."

"Uncle who is easy to hide, let's dig a cellar under the archery tower and put all the bamboo crossbows in it. When our walls are up, no one can see what our villagers are doing inside. Then we will practice!

When outsiders come, the people on the watchtower will shout, and we will put it away quickly to ensure that no one finds it..."

After Yan Yu finished speaking abruptly, she turned her small head sideways and looked at her uncle suspiciously.

Something seems wrong...

Second watch~

Tomorrow Zhai Zhai will definitely add more, definitely add more, definitely add more~
