Xu Qixian saw that these two people were on the bar, and even reconciled with the middle, but the little girl was very resolute, so she had to let her subordinates bring a basin of water to see how Xia Hongsheng collected the water. Soon, a maid came over with a copper basin, full of a large basin of water, and was put in front of Xia Hongsheng with great difficulty.

"Hmph, the water end is here, Xia Gongzi is going to perform the immortal method!" The little girl looked at Xia Hongsheng very disappreciatively, her expression was like looking at a god stick on the street, full of disdain.

"Wait, just now you tricked me into making a bet with you by saying that you can play chess, let's make another bet, what if I take back the water I spilled, what will you do?" Xia Hongsheng looked at the big basin of water calmly, raised his eyes and asked the little girl Xu Hui.

"You won't get it back!" Xu Hui disagreed.

"You say, if I do it, what will you do!" Xia Hongsheng rolled his eyes and said: "If I really can't get it back, then I will take your horse head in the future, you point to the east and I will never go west, let me beat the dog and I will never pick up the chicken." On the contrary, if I take it back, you can say it yourself! ”

The little girl's eyes rolled: "That...... Then I will promise you one thing, and I will do what I say! ”

"Ouch, this color head is a little big, I asked you to be a maid for me, you will go too?" Xia Hongsheng laughed.

"Hmph, this girl doesn't believe you can take back the water you spilled!" Xu Hui's chin was raised, with a look of disdain, but then, she added: "It's splashed into the ground, don't play any tricks!" ”

Xia Hongsheng sneered: "My son needs to play tricks? Look at it, look at how Ben Gongzi used his immortal magic to take back the water that was poured into the soil! ”

As he spoke, Xia Hongsheng picked up the copper basin water in front of him, walked out of the corridor to the place where the sun shone next to him, and then slowly poured the water in the copper basin towards a small area on the ground. The water from a copper basin quickly soaked the ground, and Xia Hongsheng deliberately poured the water very slowly, allowing the water to penetrate into the soil.

"This girl, please find a lotus leaf, if there is no lotus leaf, other large leaves will also do." Xia Hongsheng said to the maid who came over with water just now: "By the way, I'm bringing a big bowl." ”

The maid nodded, turned around and ran to find something, she was also curious if Xia Hongsheng could take back the water that had been spilled.

Soon, a lotus leaf and a big bowl were brought, Xia Hongsheng rolled up his sleeves, started directly, and squatted on the ground to plane the piece that was wet by someone. The watered soil was dug around, and then the big bowl brought by the maid was put into the pit duged out, and then the lotus leaf was covered on the top of the small pit, and the earth was pressed tightly for a week, and then a little soil was sprinkled on the center of the lotus leaf, so that the center of the lotus leaf was concave downward in the place where the bowl below.

"It's done, just wait." Xia Hongsheng patted the soil on his hands, turned around and ran to the pond to wash it up. 、

"Dig a hole and put a bowl so that the spilled water can be recovered?" Xu Qixian shook the folding fan, disappointed that Xia Hongsheng did not make any big scenes of lightning and thunder.

Xia Hongsheng sat down on the side of the corridor: "Don't let people destroy this thing, wait a few hours, and there will be water inside, if you have patience, wait one night until tomorrow to take it out, hehe, I will give you a big bowl of water." ”

"Good! I'll just wait one night! Xu Hui scoffed at the talent Xia Hongsheng's methods.

Xia Hongsheng was happy, raised his hand and patted her on the head: "Little girl, you must know that there are people outside the sky, and there are still many things you don't know in this world, so don't talk too much, be careful that you will suffer when the time comes." ”

Wait for one night, not to mention that the soil has been directly watered with water, that is, it has not been watered, this is so close to the pond, the soil under the surface layer is already wet, even if there is no water, one night is enough to fill the bowl with water.

This is actually a very simple principle, and it is also a very practical means of water intake in the wilderness, using the principles of evaporation and condensation. When the temperature of the moist soil rises, the water inside evaporates into water vapor, and in the process of rising water vapor, it encounters the surface of the lotus leaf, and then condenses into water again, and drip into the bowl below along the depression that is pressed down in the center of the lotus leaf.

Thanks to Master Pei, if he hadn't watched his show often, Xia Hongsheng wouldn't have known these tips and methods. Xia Hongsheng looked at Xu Qixian and Xu Hui, who were skeptical of his words, haha, although I don't believe it, let's go, wait until tomorrow morning to uncover the lotus leaf, take out the bowl and take a look, you will be dumbfounded by then!

"It's terrible to be uneducated." Xia Hongsheng shook the folding fan in his hand: "My son will leave first, there are other things in the afternoon." Brother Xu, see you at the Academy tomorrow. Little girl, you just wait to be a maid for me! Wowha......"

Xia Hongsheng was very villainous and arrogant, laughing and shaking his fan and leaving, that look like a good girl on the street, the hateful Xu Hui glared angrily at him and gritted his teeth.

Xia Hongsheng, who left Xu Qixian's house, did not go home, but went directly to the Fang Market. Lin Ergou and his family have already started to help, and his children are also sensible, and they are very obedient when they take a bowl and chopsticks on the side. It's past noon, so there aren't many guests at this time, and my sister-in-law is also idle, teaching Lin Ergou's mother-in-law how to cook scallion pancakes. The snack method is simple, and the husband and wife are both people who often work at home, so they should learn it quickly.

didn't go to the stall, Xia Hongsheng went straight to the opposite Yixiangju, as soon as he entered the door, the steward saw him at a glance, ran over, and bowed very respectfully: "Xia Gongzi is here, please take a seat!" ”

Xia Hongsheng had already taught the chef of Yixiangju the dishes on that table, and also gave them the seasonings, telling them what the powder was made of, but he didn't hide anything, they were all home-cooked dishes, and in Xia Hongsheng's opinion, there was no mystery worth hiding. It is also because of this that the people of Yixiangju admire Xia Hongsheng very much.

"It's okay, I'm just coming to see, I haven't heard anything from my sister-in-law during this time, it seems that the stall is very stable, thank you." Xia Hongsheng sincerely thanked the steward and those juniors.

"Where, since Yixiangju has promised Xia Gongzi, he should naturally do what he says, this is a matter of duty." The steward was very good at talking, and said to Xia Hongsheng: "However, a few days ago, there were two well-known scoundrels in Luanzhou City who wanted to make trouble, but they were rounded up by a certain family and left. It's just that a certain family still wants to remind Xia Gongzi that those two scoundrels are very difficult, and they can be described as a harm in Luanzhou City. But on the way back and forth, I asked Mr. Xia to remind Sister-in-law Ling to be more careful. ”

Xia Hongsheng listened, nodded, and asked the names and circumstances of the two scoundrels, and the person in charge explained it clearly. Being blackmailed by scoundrels, this is the look that Xia Hongsheng had expected a long time ago, after all, this kind of thing has been seen a lot in later generations. It's actually pretty good now, and there are gangs, but it's not as reckless as the underworld in later generations. In ancient times, those gangs boasted of the green forest, and they would also abide by the rules of the green forest, pay attention to the morality of the rivers and lakes, and collect protection fees from large shops. Otherwise, it will be looked down upon by other green forest heroes. Those small vendors have no one to protect, so they become the target of scoundrel bullying, and the big shops either have official relations, or those gangs and the like are protected, and those pimplers dare not provoke.

However, in this Luanzhou city, the kind of green forest gang is fine.

Lin Ergou is tall and strong, thinking that even if there are a few scoundrels making trouble, they can't resist Lin Ergou's fists, and they are afraid that they will gather a lot of people and block their sister-in-law in the middle of the road. Fortunately, Fang City is not very far from the neighborhood where Xia Hongsheng's family lives, as long as you walk a little around and walk where there is a paved fast patrol street, there should be no problem.

However, there are still necessary precautions.

Coming out of Yixiangju, Xia Hongsheng left Fang City and went straight to the carpenter Zhang Laohan's house. In the courtyard of Zhang Laohan's house, there are piles of maza and folding tables, which are now popular in Luanzhou City, because they are light and easy to move, and can be carried wherever they go, so they are very popular. Because of these things, Zhang Laohan's family life is much better. These people's families are simple, and they know that life can be better, and they are all brought out by Xia Hongsheng, so they are very grateful.

"Xia family baby, what are you going to hit this time?" Zhang Laohan knew that Xia Hongsheng would not come to the door for no reason, so he asked with a smile.

"Use an empty bamboo tube, not too big, it's best to carry it with you. It's mainly sealed, I want to make it the kind that can squirt out the water in the bamboo tube with one press, I don't know if Uncle Zhang has any methods? Xia Hongsheng explained to Zhang Laohan in the organizer's language: "That is, I pour some water into the bamboo tube, and when I don't use it on weekdays, it won't flow out, and when I use it, I can squirt it out with a press." ”

If there are really more than three people, with Lin Ergou's huge strength, they should be able to deal with it, but if there are too many people, it won't work, so Xia Hongsheng is ready to make something for them to carry, and if they encounter any danger, they can have the opportunity to protect themselves. Xia Hongsheng's first thought was the anti-wolf spray of later generations, without those chemical things, it could be replaced with what could be found, there was no chili pepper water, and it was the same effect to mash it into juice with dogwood. It's just right to use a bamboo tube to hold it, but it's a pity that I don't know how to make the nozzle, so I can only see if Zhang Laohan has any way.
