Chapter Twenty-Four: The World Is Big, and There Are No Wonders [Second Update]


"Herbs?"

Wei Xi nibbled on the eight-treasure duck that her sister bought, and was a little surprised when she heard this."

It's still a very rare medicinal herb," the fruit was not eaten and sent out for free, Wei Yun felt a little guilty, "Xixi, in the future, your Eight Treasure Duck sister will be packed." ”Wei Xi was speechless for a while, "Since I know that it is a medicinal herb, I won't eat it if I give it to me."

However, I have a vague impression of the tequila with leaves shaped like a long tongue that Brother-in-law Wen said. ”"Where, where?

Why haven't I seen it?

”"Underneath the weeds, they grow very short and cling to the ground."

Wei Yun: "I really didn't expect my little sister to pick up the grass and observe it carefully on the ground, and she still remembers the appearance of the grass.Suddenly I felt like I had gone to a fake northern foothills.Wei Xi's eyes flashed with thought, she remembered that she had heard her father say that the uncle's leg seemed to be too badly injured because of the tendons and veins, even if the bones had already healed, he still couldn't stand up, "Brother-in-law Wen said that the tequila can repair the tendons and veins, and I don't know if I can treat the uncle's leg." ”Wei Yun's eyes lit up when he heard it, "Then when you find the tequila, please ask the uncle to try it." ”Wei Xi nodded.If it can really be cured, it can really be called an unexpected joy.Hachi led Wei San into the courtyard."

I've seen the second miss, the third miss."

Wei Xi turned his head to look at him, "Everyone has been found, what do the people of Mengjia Village say?"

”Wei San said: "Miss Huisan, the craftsmen who can build roads and bridges have each found ten people, most of whom have retired from the Ministry of Industry, and they have participated in the construction of official roads and bridges, and there is no shortage of experience.There is also the help of the master.The subordinates of Mengjia Village have also counted that there are a total of 132 young adults in the village, and all of them have now signed up. ”Xiaoba continued: "There are also sixteen aunts who are responsible for boiling water, cooking and delivering meals, and their subordinates have screened them once, and those who remain are diligent and capable. ”"Okay."

Wei Xi's eyebrows relaxed, "Wei San, you gather those craftsmen first, I have something to order." ”Waiting for Wei San to leave, Wei Yun pressed Wei Xi's hand, "Xi Xi, you don't plan to do it yourself, do you?"

”This is another gathering of craftsmen and such a look, she is really a little afraid of how long this road will be repaired, and how long her sister will stay on that road."

No," Wei Xi assured her, "but how to repair this road, I have to talk to those people, in case I am not satisfied with the repair, I will have to go back to the furnace and rebuild it." ”"Isn't this all one way to cultivate?""

It's different," Wei Xi shook his head, "The road I want to build, even if more than ten decades have passed, is still as smooth as ever, and not a single weed grows." ”Wei Yun: "She couldn't imagine it, so she gave up decisively.Wei San quickly summoned people, but the ground for the meeting was not in the Yaoguo Mansion, but in Mengjia Village.Mengjia Village is a very remote village, there are less than 100 households in the village, and the location is neither near the mountains nor near the water, and it takes nearly two hours to run from the nearest market.The people in the village basically guard their fields and live off the harvest.When there was no work in the field, a few people and a dozen people went out to find some hard-working odd jobs.Not to mention that the salary is less and the food is not enough, when you meet those black-hearted customers, it is common to deduct money or simply drag it out.Therefore, for Wei Xi, a working bodhisattva who directly uses real money to recruit people to work, the people in the village can be said to be enthusiastic.As soon as they heard that their patron, who was all over the golden light, was going to rent a courtyard in their village, the villagers of Mengjia Village directly vacated their largest courtyard and invited people in.Wei Xi is in this courtyard now.When she came, there were already more than a dozen people standing or squatting in the courtyard.They are all craftsmen gathered together by Weizo.These people also know that their top patron is the daughter of Lord Wei's family, and as soon as Wei Xi came in, these people got up one after another to salute.These are all old men who are in their forties and fifties, and their faces are covered with wind and frost marks.They will leave the Ministry of Works, and most of them will make room for their children and grandchildren.It is true that the sons of the craftsmen under the Ministry of Industry can inherit their father's errands, but there are so many quotas, and their own children will come in and they will leave.Craftsmen don't have their own fields, and after they go out, they basically rely on the skills in their hands to take on some scattered work in the people, so that the bad people are still old and strong, and they can earn a lot of silver to subsidize their families.I didn't expect that the old man was old, and I thought that the second half of my life would be like this, and the east would repair the wall and the west family repair the beams, but I didn't expect to be able to command another road and another bridge.Therefore, although the patron is only a girl's family, these people are full of gratitude in their hearts.didn't despise Wei Xi because he was young.Wei Xi didn't mean to drag mud and water at all, and after these old craftsmen saw the salute, she directly ordered Wei San to drag out the big Eight Immortals table in the main house and put it in the courtyard.Immediately afterwards, Xiaoba stepped forward, opened the paper tube he was holding in his arms, and took out a piece of paper from it, and after opening it all, the whole paper was much longer than the Eight Immortals Table.In the end, it was Wei San and Xiaoba who pulled one side and expanded the entire drawing.In the look of surprise on the faces of the craftsmen, Wei Xi beckoned to them and pointed to the drawings on the table, "This is the road I asked everyone to build. ”When she said this, everyone was directly stunned.In general, when building a road, the patrons only need to say where the starting point is and where the end is, and as for how to build the road, can't they decide for themselves?

This thing is the most taboo for laymen to command blindly.There are also leaders among the craftsmen, who are generally the most senior.Zhao Siping couldn't help frowning immediately, but he couldn't bear to say anything to refute, and stepped forward to look at the drawing.I was stunned when I saw it.The others look at me, I look at you, and they come over too.Wei Xi didn't speak first, only let them watch first.When she slowly drank the water handed over by Xiao Qi, Zhao Siping raised his head, and his eyes, which were already a little cloudy, were shining brightly, "Miss Weisan, dare to ask who drew this drawing?"

”It is no exaggeration to say that this is the most detailed drawing he has ever seen.The road is difficult to repair and easy to repair, and the good repair lies in the fact that if it is a smooth road, it can be repaired all the way directly according to the plan.If you encounter a river, what height should be built, so that the river will not flood the bridge deck when the river surges, and at the same time, choosing where to build a bridge is also a science, a river is not a bridge that can be erected wherever it is.The most difficult thing is to encounter a place full of rocks, and you have to use fire stones to water and remove the rocks.And on the drawing in front of him, not only the terrain around the road is clearly marked, where the road should bend, how to detour in the undulating terrain to make the vehicles and horses more labor-saving, the general width of the river, the depth of the dry and rainy seasons, all clearly marked.Zhao Siping tried to ask himself if he had been building the road for so many years, but he couldn't draw such detailed drawings.That's why I'm curious."

I drew it."

As soon as these words fell, Wei Xi ushered in dozens of shocked eyes, and she continued to say without changing her face: "You can take this drawing and explore it again, maybe there are some places I missed, and when the path to be repaired is determined, I will tell you how to repair this road." ”Zhao Siping almost wanted to say that this road is not all the same, but when he looked into the eyes of Miss Wei San on the other side of the table, he swallowed back the words.He carefully held the blueprint that Wei San handed him, "Miss Wei San, then we will explore again, so that we can familiarize ourselves with the path." ”Wei Xi nodded and asked Wei San to take them out.She herself took Xiao Qi and Xiao Ba and more than 20 guards, and also set off to chase her sister and brother-in-law Wen who were looking for tequila in the northern foothills.The two met under the crooked neck tree at the northern foot of the wilderness.As soon as she arrived in Wei Yun, she gave her good news.This place does have tequila grown, and there are quite a few of them.Wen Jiuzhang said before that the growth environment of this agave is extremely domineering, as long as it grows in the place, whether it is other plants or small insects in the soil, it will not give it a way to live.But there is one exception to the grass that can be found everywhere in the wasteland.Wen Jiuzhang carefully dug out a tequila tree, and did not forget to explain to Wei Yun and Wei Xi who came with him, "This weed is nameless, and the reason why it can survive is because it only needs very few nutrients in the soil.And when it dies, it can nourish this land, so the agave graciously allows them to survive on their own territory. ”Wei Yun was speechless: "This world is so big, it's really strange. ”Wen Jiuzhang couldn't help but smile, "That's true." ”Wei Xi looked up at the crooked neck tree above his head, and according to that, this tree really has to be kept in the future.Even the surrounding land where tequila grows must be kept.It seems that it will have to be circled in the future.Tut!

Wei Yun watched Wen Jiuzhang digging the dragon tongue grass for a while, and he also volunteered to help dig it, "Jiuzhang, if a person's tendons and veins have been injured for nearly twenty years, can they still be cured with this dragon tongue grass?"

”Wen Jiuzhang was stunned when he heard the action of digging grass, and quickly thought of who Wei Yun asked, "Yun'er is talking about Yaoguo Gong?"

”Wei Yun nodded."

I haven't shown Yao Guogong his legs, I don't know the severity of his tendon injuries, and I've never used this tequila to help people treat tendon injuries, so I don't dare to give Yun'er you a guarantee.But when I go back, I want to give Yaoguo Gong a try. ”Wen Jiuzhang said in a low voice, "Yaoguo Gong is the hero of Dayong, and it is my honor to be able to heal his legs." ”After digging nearly thirty percent of the agave in this place, Wen Jiuzhang stopped Wei Yun's hand that was still about to continue digging, "The rest will be kept to continue growing, I will go back to the hospital first and try the curative effect of this tequive."

I'll visit the house another day. ”Wei Yun clapped his hands, "Then I'll let the guards send you back."

I still have to accompany Xi Xi to repair the road. ”Wei Xi: "Congratulations to Brother-in-law Wen." ”Wen Jiuzhang, who heard this title for the first time: ""
