Everyone's laughter stopped abruptly after Xiaotian raised his hand, and everyone immediately fell silent again, straightening their waists again and arranging them neatly.

"What? It's only been a few days to make you so happy? But the ugly words are said to be a holiday, but it is not to let you let go of the wind and do nothing, these three days of morning exercise still have to go out normally, and take advantage of these three days, you have to build a new house for yourself, and you can honestly choose two helpers to repair the sails on the ship, if you can't repair the new house within three days, then just wait for the open sleep!

Tonight, everyone adds a fish, which is considered a reward for you, and now you can disband! ”

Although it is nominally a three-day holiday, but in fact it is still not a rest, but this is really nothing compared to hellish training, so this arrangement did not affect everyone's emotions, and Yu Xiaotian announced that everyone would add a fish tonight, which made everyone even more happy, so everyone immediately knelt down on one knee, bowed their heads and responded loudly, which was when Xiaotian waved his hand, and scattered violently, and went straight to the rice bucket, and immediately lined up very consciously again, and began to cheer and fight.

Originally, Yu Xiaotian also wanted to use a modern military salute to replace this kneeling salute, but it attracted the opposition of Ma Yan and others, thinking that such a hand salute is really unseemly, and the Ming Dynasty pays the most attention to the difference between respect and humility, and the people below see the people above, and it is natural to kneel and salute, so Yu Xiaotian had to obey the majority and continue to use this kneeling salute.

But after getting used to it, now he feels good about accepting such etiquette, and there is a sense of superiority, which satisfies his little vanity, so he gradually gets used to accepting it.

After initially completing the first step of training, Yu Xiaotian discussed with Ma Mian and others in advance, and for the time being, he still did not move all these people to Treasure Island, only a few craftsmen who were going to be used now were transferred to Treasure Island first, and the rest of the newcomers who were crew members continued to stay on the attached island.

And in order to strengthen the control over these people, after soliciting the opinions of everyone, Heitou and Liu Tong both volunteered to come to this affiliated island to serve as the head of the army and be responsible for the management of these people.

After thinking about it for a while, Yu Xiaotian agreed, and let Heitou and Liu Tong act as temporary instructors and be stationed on the attached island to live with these people and take charge of their management.

This time, the two of Heitou and Liu Tong were upgraded by one level out of thin air, and their identities were one step higher than those of other ordinary crew members, and they became the first-level small leaders under Yu Xiaotian, although their status could not be compared with Meng Luozi, Zhao Mazi and Li Gouzi, but they were one level higher than others.

Although this is a bit risky, this kind of risk must also be taken by someone, treat these newcomers, you can't let them take care of themselves, you must have reliable people to control them, Heitou and Liu Tong are more suitable candidates.

The small island attached to Treasure Island became their boot camp for the time being, and then they began to build a large number of huts in three days.

Although the thatched hut is still very rudimentary because it is only built of rough timber and thatched grass cut from local materials, it has at least four walls and windows, which is like a house rather than a simple thatched hut, providing a minimum of shelter for the people who live here.

As for Treasure Island, there is no leisure these days, except for a group of people, especially those directly involved in the battle, who have to go to the island to practice with the newcomers every day, the rest of the people are also very busy.

This time, they traded with the Li family and exchanged a lot of materials from the Li family for the materials they urgently needed, including various weapons, as well as some grain, iron, cowhides, wood, medicines, and so on.

After these things were brought back, they had to be properly disposed of immediately, especially since this is an island with a lot of humidity, so it turned out that they only temporarily built some grass huts, and repaired some of the stone houses that remained on the island, which only solved the problem of temporary housing, but there was no decent storehouse.

So these days, Ma Mian and a few other old guys took some young people to stay on Treasure Island to build houses, they chose a relatively large stone house left before, and after adding a beam roof, it was used as a temporary warehouse, and all kinds of materials were stored in the warehouse.

In addition, two huts were rebuilt for the new blacksmith and carpenter as their accommodation, and after the blacksmith's family of three came, they did not accept the so-called quarantine like the newcomers, but they also changed their new clothes and arranged for them to wash carefully.

The blacksmith knew that there was no hope of going back, so he died of this heart, and lived with his wife and apprentice with peace of mind, and under the special care of Xiaotian, the people on the island provided his pregnant wife with better food as much as possible, at least compared to before they came, the food was much better, and the women on the island also took better care of his wife, basically not letting his wife do any work, which made Zhang Blacksmith also feel a lot more relieved.

Blacksmith Zhang's resistance before arriving here gradually dissipated a lot, and after settling down, he began to use the existing tools to help the people on the island work.

Because when Blacksmith Zhang was kidnapped this time, he was short of manpower, so he only brought out some of Blacksmith's tools, but he couldn't bring heavy objects such as anvils, and it was impossible for the stove to be brought over, so he could only solve it on Treasure Island on the spot.

The anvils required a lot of pig iron, and although they had some iron at the moment, they did not have an iron furnace to cast it, so they had to temporarily replace it with the stone that existed on the island, and the furnace was built of stone and mud on the spot.

Blacksmith Zhang muttered that he used this humble makeshift workshop to repair the damaged iron tools for Yu Xiaotian and them, including their knives and guns, harpoons, hook guns and other things, and made some urgently needed iron nails and other things out of iron.

After a preliminary inspection, Yu Xiaotian found that he had picked up the treasure this time, this blacksmith's craftsmanship is really quite good, the craftsmanship of striking iron is exquisite, the quality is high, it is very good, and when there is nothing to do at night, Yu Xiaotian chatted with blacksmith Zhang again.

It turned out that Zhang Blacksmith originally lived in Quanzhou, and he was born as a blacksmith for generations, but something happened at home, and Zhang Blacksmith didn't want to say what happened, but later after his father died, he abandoned his home in Quanzhou and went to Fuzhou, because he had no money at hand, and he didn't find a suitable place to reopen the blacksmith shop in Fuzhou.

But he is a small profit, next to a few relatively large blacksmith shops, his business is not good, life is also more difficult, this period of time has just stabilized, someone found that his craftsmanship is good, the order has just improved, and was caught here by Yu Xiaotian, so Zhang Blacksmith is quite a little worried about this matter, after drinking some wine, patted his chest and said to Xiaotian:

"If it weren't for your boss who arrested us, my surname Zhang would not be boasting, and it wouldn't take long to become the number one blacksmith in this Dongping Village!"

Yu Xiaotian sneered, and while drinking with him, he said, "You think it's too simple!" You have no roots, you have just arrived in Dongping Village, I believe that your craftsmanship can't be wrong, but have you thought about it, your work is good, don't you rob other people's business? You must know that the strong dragon of the road does not suppress the head snake, if you steal someone else's business, will they not run you? If you don't offend the local family, you will still be unable to get mixed up! That's why I arrested you, not necessarily because I hurt you! ”

After hearing this, Blacksmith Zhang was stunned for a while, and suddenly sighed and said, "What you said is also true!" I said that a few days ago, why did someone always steal my carbon and iron! It is estimated that those few companies are good at my business, and they are looking for someone to spoil my business! A few days ago, there was actually a ruffian with a hoe that I beat, if I had to say that I cut corners, the collapse at a glance knew that the road was smashed out with an iron rod, I didn't change it, he shouted everywhere that my craftsmanship was not successful! If you can't figure it out, those families are looking for someone to frame me! ”

Yu Xiaotian laughed, nodded and said: "Look, I still said it, if your craftsmanship is average, it's okay, but I think it's just a person who just went to Dongping Village, and the craftsmanship is good, of course it will rob other people's business, and they don't partner to harm you, then it's weird!" According to what you say, it seems that you won't be able to mix in Dongping Village for long, and you will be forced to leave by others! That's why I got you, and I helped you if I didn't get it!

By the way, I see that your craftsmanship is good, so I want to ask you, do you know how to make this thing? ”

Blacksmith Zhang rolled his eyes, glanced at Yu Xiaotian, shook his head and said, "You person, I don't know what Lu Dao should say about you, in the end, are you a good person or a bad person?" You are a good person, why should you be a thief? ”

Yu Xiaotian also rolled his eyes and snorted: "If anyone has a fucking way to live, they will do this!" Tell you, I'm being forced to ,......"

Saying that, he selectively told Blacksmith Zhang how Jiang Baihu persecuted them, and finally forced them to kill Jiang Baihu and go to the sea to do this business.

After hearing this, Blacksmith Zhang sighed and said: "This is also true, the current officials are not fucking good things, and if it were me, I wouldn't be able to swallow this breath!" That's it! It doesn't look like you're too bad people! It's my bad luck to be targeted by you! ”

As he spoke, Blacksmith Zhang drank another glass of wine.

"By the way, I asked you if you could build a bird gun, and you haven't answered me yet!" Yu Xiaotian put down his wine glass and asked Blacksmith Zhang.

"Nope! We have been striking iron in Quanzhou for generations for a living, and the government is strictly controlled by the government, and it is only the craftsmen of the government who can know what to do, and I can't fight! If you want me to make a knife and gun farm tools, there must be nothing to say, but let me get that, if I don't find someone to teach me, I don't know what to do! Blacksmith Zhang's eyes flickered for a moment, then he shook his head and denied.

Yu Xiaotian was a little disappointed after hearing this, but after thinking about it, he felt that what Zhang Blacksmith said was right, in this era in the Ming Dynasty, it was still the most advanced weapon, even in the world world, it was still a relatively powerful weapon at the moment, and it was normal for the government to control it strictly, Zhang Blacksmith was not a craftsman in the government, and it was normal that he would not be able to build it, so he could only sigh, and this matter was temporarily put down.

(Today I finally got on the classified click list, and the red ticket list seems to be on the list, but it's still at the bottom for the time being, I'll work harder, and the brothers will help me up again, and continue to rush up!)
