Zhou Yuesheng picked up the porcelain bowl filled with white rice, sat on the mound, and ate it happily.
The rice is stuffed with stir-fried pork slices with bamboo shoots, which makes people salivate.
This was his sixteenth day in Texas, and the food was as good as ever, making him full of energy.
Zhou Yuesheng was originally very frustrated when he was selected to expand the team of craftsmen in Nanjing, but now it seems that this is a rare and good job.
"Lao Zhou, how old is your boy this year?
Has he married a wife?"
Zhou Yuesheng turned around and saw that the person speaking was Zhao Fu, so he laughed and said, "My boy is just fourteen this year, so he is not in a hurry to marry his wife."
"Ah, why do you say that?
A fourteen-year-old baby is not too young."
Zhao Fu stuffed the rice grains stuck to the corner of his mouth into his mouth, chewed it, and suggested: "The sooner this kind of thing is done, the better.
If you marry a wife at the age of fourteen, you can have a grandson at the age of fifteen."
Zhou Yuesheng's face turned red and he sighed: "How can I marry my son without money?
It's not easy for craftsmen like us to save money.
I want to wait a little longer."
Zhao Fu curled his lips and said, "Look at you, why are you still the same as before?
Let me tell you, when you return from Shandong this time, you will be able to collect the money for your boy's wife."
Zhou Yuesheng rolled his eyes at Zhao Fu angrily and said, "You idiot Zhao will make fun of me.
Why can you make money when you return from Shandong this time?"
"Hey, didn't you hear Master He say that we are rewarded with silver for building forts?
If we build more than a dozen forts, the reward is not enough for you to find a wife for your son?"
"Bah, what those adults say is just like farts.
You can believe it."
Zhou Yuesheng was so angry that he was so angry.
"You, Zhao Luzi, are really easy to deceive."
"Old Zhou, why are you scolding people?
I can't believe it even if Lord He makes a big pie.
The key is to share the rewards for building forts.
It is His Majesty the Emperor's decree.
Remember Lao Xu from Longjiang Shipyard, these two The money I earn every month is almost twenty taels, tsk tsk, that’s real money.”
Zhou Yuesheng's eyes were as wide as cowbells: "Twenty taels of silver is real."
"Why did I lie to you?
If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask Lao Xu."
Zhao Fu smashed his words and said: "Since His Majesty the Emperor has made a promise, he will not regret it.
You are not joking.
I think that the reward we will get will not be less than that of Old Xu.
If I can have twenty taels of silver, I will Buy the shop in Qinghefang and put it up for sale."
Craftsmen rely on craftsmanship to earn a living, and their income source is very single.
Zhao Fu was afraid that he would starve to death when he was too old to work, so he thought about buying a shop to rent out and living off the rent.
"It's you, Zhao Luzi, who has more clever ideas."
Zhou Yuesheng sighed and said, "Even though the world is so chaotic now, I don't know if making money will cost you life."
Zhao Fu patted his rounded belly and said with a smile: "Old Zhou, you must be too worried.
If the sky falls, there will be something tall to hold it up, so it won't be able to hit you."
"That's true."

Zhou Yuesheng put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, lay down on the mound, closed his eyes and took a nap.
Even though I could only squint for a while, it was better than nothing.
There is still a lot of work waiting to be done in the afternoon.
Although they are assigned dozens of helpers, they are all laymen who are not familiar with masonry and masonry work.
It is really tiring to have them guide them in everything.
Zhou Yuesheng finally felt sleepy and felt someone shaking him violently.
He suddenly opened his eyes and saw Zhao Fu in front of him, and said angrily: "Donkey Zhao, what are you doing?"
"Brother Zhou, the cavalry, the cavalry is here" Zhou Yuesheng said angrily: "What happened to the cavalry must have been sent by General Qin to ask questions."
"No, it's the Tatars, it's the Tatars."
Zhao Fu's face was as pale as paper, and his hands began to tremble.
Seeing that he was pretending to be decent, Zhou Yuesheng deliberately laughed and said: "When the Tatars come, just drive them away.
With General Qin here, you are nothing to worry about."
Zhao Fu shook his head violently: "But General Qin's troops are all in Dezhou City, and water from afar cannot quench the thirst of those near you."
Although the bastion will be garrisoned in the future, no troops will be stationed until it is built.
That's why Zhao Fu said this.
Zhou Yuesheng just felt that something was wrong, turned his head and looked into the distance, and was immediately stunned.
Tatars, the Tatar cavalry is really here.
It turns out that Zhao Fu was not joking with him what to do what to do now Escape?
How can they outrun the Tatar cavalry on two legs?
Fighting?
If the bastion is built, we can still try it reluctantly, but now the bastion wall is not taller than one person, how can it be defended?
Zhou Yuesheng only felt desperate.
Dozens of people in the fort were all panicked and huddled up subconsciously.
They have all heard about the brutality of the Manchurian Tatars.
It is said that wherever the Tatars go, they are in ruins.
Those people who were plundered by the Tatars would become their slaves, farm the land for them unconditionally, and endure arbitrary beatings and scoldings by the Tatars.
They had no dignity at all.
What will be waiting for them No one dared to think about it Most of them have families.
If they are kidnapped by the Tatars, what will happen to their wives and children?
God, why are you so cruel?
They did not know that this group of Tatar cavalry only had ten cavalry in total, and they were the scouts sent by Joluo Bahana for this generation of reconnaissance.
After the disastrous defeat in Dezhou, Joluo Bahana was severely reprimanded by Dorgon, and his status in the banner was greatly reduced due to the serious losses of his soldiers.
After suffering such great injustice, Joluo Bahana vowed to personally lead his troops to fight back and capture Dezhou to avenge his previous humiliation.
In order to achieve this goal, Joluo Bahana sent a hundred scouts to the outskirts of Texas to conduct reconnaissance in order to collect sufficient intelligence for the regent to make up his mind.
The last disastrous defeat in Texas was due to poor intelligence work, and Joro Bahana has learned his lesson.
These ten knights are part of the one hundred scouts, and the scope of the investigation is in this area.
They saw someone building a fortress from a distance, so they rode over to see what was going on.
However, they did not move forward until they were about fifty steps away from the fortress, probably because they were worried that there were Ming troops stationed in the fortress.
The purpose of their trip was investigation.
Since the purpose of investigation was achieved, there was no need to cause more trouble.
After wandering around the outside of the fortress, they turned their horses and fled away.
"Old Zhou, Old Zhou, did you hear it?
The sound of horse hooves is far away."
Zhao Fu was the first to notice.
He shook Zhou Yuesheng's arm desperately and said excitedly.

Zhou Yuesheng opened his eyes and turned his head to look, but could see nothing but billowing yellow dust.
The Tatars are really gone God's eyes are open Zhou Yuesheng's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, and he hugged Zhao Fu and cried with joy.
After everyone vented their emotions, Zhao Fu reminded: "We have to go back to Dezhou City to report this matter to General Qin.
If the Tatars turn back again, we won't be able to escape
