"Rootless water?"

Xiao Han knew that rootless water was rain directly from the sky, and in the old days, there were people who collected some when it rained, so as to make tea and drink it in the future, but unfortunately, after social progress, all kinds of chemical factories and big chimneys stood up, and no one dared to drink this rootless water anymore, I was afraid that if I drank it, it would directly become a real rootless...... The roots of the teeth are rotten......

But don't laugh at future generations, now, he seems to have such signs here.

A few days ago, the big chimneys of cement kilns and steel mills emitted black smoke almost every day, and when the weather was cold to the point of freezing, the cement kiln could take a little rest, because you can't take ice live cement, even if it is live, it will not solidify......

Seeing the cement road in front of the door, Xiao Han felt a burst of pride in his heart, this is definitely the earliest cement road in the world, and even on the earth, although it is not too long, and it is not very peaceful......

Originally, I wanted to build all the avenues in the fiefdom into cement roads, but now only one main road in front of the Hou Mansion has been paved, and before it has been paved, the project has been stranded because of the cold weather......

I had no choice but to stock up on cement first and wait for the beginning of spring to make plans.

The cement kiln is dry and stopped, but the blacksmith is very busy, originally some farmers are afraid that the cement kiln will stop and not earn wages, now it can be regarded as a waste of worry, the blacksmith is busy all day and night and wants to divide a person into two halves to dry, if it is not for the lantern at night is really not clear, they are not going to be idle at night.

The reason why the blacksmith is so busy here is actually because of the stove!

A few days ago, after the weather just turned cold, Steward Lu was afraid of Xiao Han's cold, so he specially lit a brazier and sent it to Xiao Han's house at night.

Unexpectedly, it didn't matter if they sent this brazier, Zhang Qiang and Xiao Han almost couldn't sleep for a long time and passed away......

If it weren't for Xiao Han's suffocation of urine for half the night and feeling disgusting all the time, this little life would have been planted in the hands of Steward Lu!

Groping to open the window, breathe, and the dizzy Zhang Qiang blew the cold wind all night, this head finally woke up, and when he saw Steward Lu who came to ask for peace in the morning, he was angry, and he held his head and covered his face, and the scolding Steward Lu cried, and Xiao Han, who saw it, couldn't bear it, and began to persuade him gently.

"Woo...... Don't complain about the Hou Ye, I should scold! Master Hou, if you have three long and two short, Lao Lu, I won't be able to live! Woohoo......"

"Okay, okay, get up, why don't you kowtow to the worm, and besides, you are also for my good, and those who don't know are not guilty! It's just that I have to ask, why don't you buy a stove when you have to take something so dangerous? ”

Xiao Han dragged Steward Lu up from the ground, he was tired and tired, the sequelae of soot poisoning is really not a joke, even if it is a later generation with so developed technology, there are not a few people who die of soot poisoning in newspapers every year!

Steward Lu was in a better mood at this time, and asked Xiao Han with teary eyes: "Woo...... What stove, smoker? What's the use of that......

"Smoker? Old Lu, you hate me for not dying! I almost hung up with a brazier, and you still have a smoker...... I'm talking about furnaces, coal-burning, cylindrical, with a long iron pipe attached! Zhang Qiang, have you seen it? ”

Zhang Qiang on the side tried to shake his arms, not daring to speak, for fear of spitting out directly as soon as he opened his mouth, it was strange, his body was much stronger than Xiao Hanzhuang, but this charcoal poisoning, Xiao Han was almost fine, and he was still uncomfortable!

Thinking of the past, what he ate was wrong, he had diarrhea every time*, and Xiao Han's nausea was over even if it was over, which made him wonder if Xiao Han was invincible......

Looking at the four innocent eyes, Xiao Han sighed, it seemed that he had to "invent" another stove.

Now, each household of the Xiao family has a new coal stove, which is used in conjunction with the ondol, and the villagers feel that this cold winter is estimated to be the most comfortable winter in their lives.

The new cement brick house is impermeable, the housewife likes the aluminum kettle on the stove the most, bubbling hot, brushing the dishes and washing clothes are no longer afraid of the hands frozen like pig's trotters, and the old men like to hold their children and grandchildren, roast a few taro beans around the stove, tease and tease the dolls, and then tell a few old stories that have been passed down for many generations.

When the first coal stove spread, it was followed by countless orders, especially the three big businessmen who got the cement kiln order, rushed to Xiao Han overnight, did not dare to go to Xiao Han's house to see the real thing, chose a household with lights, knocked on the door, and directly threw out two copper coins, we want to buy your stove!

The owner of the house looked at the taro that had not yet been roasted, and hesitated for a moment, and smashed it with two more money......

The stove was moved back, and the fire was lit, and the chimney that led to the outside of the house was gurgling and smoking, and there was no smoke in the house, and after lighting it for a night, even the little chicks who were most afraid of carbon poison were alive, and the merchant who had been guarding all night had no discomfort except for a dry nose, and there was no feeling of dizziness in his head after lighting the brazier......

"That's a good thing! Let's take it out, and that's what saves lives! "This is what the merchant said to Steward Lu, originally Steward Lu didn't plan to sell it, and he couldn't stand the merchant's soft grinding and hard bubbles, so he asked the blacksmith to mark some and hand it over to the merchant.

The shrewd businessman gets something, without saying a word, directly to Chang'an to put it away, the price is set very close to the people, the businessman is shrewd, knowing that this thing is not at all to make money with the price, as long as you see that after a person buys a stove, the next day he pulls ten people, you know how much profit this thing can bring by relying on quantity, and what is more difficult is that it brings a good reputation!

In previous years, as soon as winter began, where could it not be reported that someone had been poisoned by carbon? It's chilling to listen to! And this carbon poison is different from other things, one middle school, is a family, and it is extremely vicious!

And this year, none of the stoves that have been used have been poisoned so far! This made the Chang'an people who slept in fear every winter finally relieved their hearts, of course, in order to be more assured, they hurried to order a set for the old father the next day.

After Steward Lu learned the news, he couldn't stop laughing, there were already rumors in Chang'an, this is something specially made by Hou Xiaohan of Sanyuan County in order to stop everyone from being killed by carbon poison, as long as it is installed, he will no longer be afraid of the colorless and odorless demon carbon poison!

So now the blacksmith has to make the furnace in addition to making armor, and fortunately, the furnace is easy to make, just use some leftovers to make armor, burn it and pour it into the mud, or where will you be busy?

Steward Lu is happy to see his teeth and eyes, and he goes to the blacksmith when he is idle, and he has given the blacksmith several bonuses a month, with a long face, saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, although no one comes to kneel to thank him for saving his life, but Steward Lu still insists that what they are doing is a great thing to save the country and save people!

Outside the house, the long chimney sticking out of the eaves began to smoke again, which was lighting the stove that had been extinguished last night, and the children who were playing outside were reluctantly called home by their parents to go to school after breakfast.

Soon, the bustling road was quiet again, and only the snowflakes were still beautiful.

Xue Pan blinked her eyes and looked at Xiao Han in the distance, these days of getting along made her more and more fond of staying here.

Touching the letter in her arms, the family has been crazy recently and generally asked her to go home, but Xue Pan is unwilling to go back, at least until her brother comes back, she has made up her mind not to go back!

How nice it is here, everyone is so kind, and there is Sister Xiaomin to play around, Xiao Han is more like a walking mystery, which makes her want to uncover these secrets.

Maybe it was because he felt that someone was looking at him again, as soon as Xiao Han turned his head, he saw Xue Pan's curious eyes, this little girl is not like an ancient, but like an enlightened modern person, and she is not the slightest restraint with her.

"Sister Xue, you also came out to see the snow?"

Xiao Han smiled and said hello to Xue Pan, causing Zhang Qiang next to him to roll his eyes, always feeling that he was entrusted to no one, and now he finally understood, it turned out that Xiao Han didn't want Xue Pan to leave here early at all, and he was stupid to wait for Xiao Han to send her away.

Xue Pan and Xiao Han have been familiar with each other for a long time these days, and they don't feel unfamiliar at all, hearing Xiao Han call him, he pulled Xiao Ai and ran over: "Yes, where is Xiao Qi?" Why didn't it come out? ”

Xiao Han scratched his head, pointed to the door and said, "Xiao Qi is sleeping, last night it went to play with the stove, it was burned, and it took half a night to fall asleep, and it shouldn't be able to wake up at this time!" ”

"Huh?" When Xue Pan heard this, he hurriedly ran into the house: "How can it be burned, whether it is hot or not, it doesn't matter?" ”

"It's okay, just burn the paws, and it's a memory for it, it's not a big deal! Hey, where are you going? ”

"Let's go see Xiao Qi ......"

Before Xiao Han finished speaking, Xue Pan ran into the house like a gust of wind to see Xiao Qi, playing with it every day these days, and he had already developed feelings.

Not long after, Xue Pan ran out happily again, followed by a chubby puppy, compared with before, Xiaoqi has grown up a lot, it was originally a small hairball, and he couldn't see his paws when he ran, but now he is almost two sizes.

I don't know if all dogs that look the same as huskies are the same, they go crazy when they see snow, anyway, now Xiaoqi is crazy, running all the way from the yard, surpassing Xue Pan in a few clicks, facing the high threshold and not stopping, jumping up directly, the head and front paws flew over the threshold beautifully, but unfortunately it still miscalculated its ability, and the hind paws of the stomach slammed on it......

Three and a half weeks of rotation in the air, followed by five weeks of rolling on the ground, and when Xiao Qi shook his head and stood up, his body had already rolled to the edge of the steps, and his little paws stepped into the air, and he couldn't calculate how many laps he had rolled, anyway, he rolled from the top of the steps to the bottom of the steps.........
