I took a shower last night, and this morning, Zhang Chao felt much more imposing when he practiced his gun.

Holding the silver spear given by Qin Qiong, Zhang Chao swung the thorn vigorously, and now he is quite good. His father showed admiration on the side.

"Hmph, ha!"

He stabbed it out, retracted it, stabbed it ten times in one breath, and his waist was no longer sore and his hands were no longer hurt. Practicing a gun can indeed exercise his body, but Zhang Chao knew that he was only strengthening his lower body. If you talk about gun skills, he didn't even touch the edge of the door.

"Brother Wenyuan is early."

Cheng Chumo and Qin Gan came together on horseback, and they were a little surprised to see Zhang Chao practicing guns hard.

"Let's practice together."

It doesn't matter if Qin dares. He is also the captain of Qin Qiong's personal guard. He has been through the battle formation on the battlefield for a long time, so it's too slight to practice a gun. However, Cheng Chumo, who is the chief of the Cheng family this year, is a scholar who is a scholar. Cheng Yaojin's horse spear and riding skills have not learned at all.

Seeing his frowning look, Zhang Chao is not polite. Damn, I can’t be alone even if I get tired. I have to find a training partner.

"Shuozi, come to the iron spear for the minister."

"Brother Wenyuan, let me forget it, I can't even handle this iron spear." Cheng Chumo frowned and winked at his father's iron spear.

"After all, you are the eldest son of Duke Su. If you have no power to tie a chicken, don't be afraid of falling into the Cheng family's style when you say it? Don't say nonsense, practice with me. Today, you can't finish the gun and have no breakfast."

Half a day later, Cheng Chumo was sweating all over and almost paralyzed.

Zhang Chao himself was actually very tired. In order to trick Cheng Chumo, he had thorned twenty more shots, and he also reached the limit, but he still pretended to be relaxed on the surface.

Change your practice clothes and scrub it briefly.

Zhang Chao called the two to have breakfast.

There are hundreds of people in the Zhang family now who work, all of which are made of three meals, so there is already a simple canteen, which is actually a large grass shed with two stoves, responsible for making everyone’s three meals a day.

Zhang Chao and his wife also ate here, which is convenient and convenient. Qian Gui's wife Zhou took her two daughters Da Ya and Er Ya to help with cooking.

When Zhang Chao and the others passed, most people had already eaten it. They had to get up early to make breakfast, and they had already gotten up before dawn to start steaming. Those who delivered had to be delivered early.

Breakfast is relatively simple, and people don’t choose to eat these days, so it’s great if you can eat enough.

This morning, the cafeteria made no-support soup, which is not a simple recipe for making, not a pasta dish, and it does not require so many fermentation processes. Just wake up the noodles.

Moreover, in the morning of winter, scoop a large bowl of soup without placing it, add some lard and chopped green onion, which is a great pleasure.

It is both delicious and full, and is more convenient and affordable than eating steamed buns.

Unfortunately, there are no chili peppers, otherwise it will be more flavorful.

Just as he was not entrusted, the village brought Ke Shan and Ke Wu to the other side. The village has now officially served as the director of the Zhang Enterprise Engineering Department, while Ke Wu and Ke Shan are the captains of the kang team and the stove team respectively.

After making the decision to build a steaming room yesterday, the village official had already started to prepare. In order to drive the steaming room out first, the Engineering Department had to temporarily stop the kang stove business outside.

"If you tell Brother Gan, he will be responsible for purchasing the materials you can get. In addition, you can also get the materials you can get by yourself. Or directly buy them with the surrounding villagers and pay them to get them."

When the new official of Muramasa took office, he was full of energy and a red face.

"Except for iron pots and steamers to purchase, there is no need to purchase anything else. Build a steam room and set up a stove, that is, go into the mountains to cut some trees, cut some thatch, tamp some earth bricks, and pick some stones. Everyone is idle in winter, so we shouted, men and women in the nearby villages are willing to make a meal and get some spare money."

"Well, then I will leave this matter to Grandpa Ke to be fully responsible. Please ask the villagers to help you. We will give as much money as you should. We can't lose money to the villagers."

"Don't worry, Sanlang, I will definitely do it." Muramachi said, patting his chest.

Zhang Chao was still very relieved about Cun Zheng, after all, he was also a top figure in the village before.

"Uncle Ke Wu, Uncle Ke Shan, I have something to do here and I want you to help you." Zhang Chao said to his two apprentices, "I plan to build a bathhouse in the village."

"bathhouse?"

Both of them were a little surprised. It seems that only temples are available in bathhouses these days.

The most clean person in the world is probably the monks. Temples usually have special bath halls, and monks have to take a bath once a few days.

More diligent than wealthy families.

Zhang Chao said his request. This is a big project, and there must be a large bath pool. This bath pool must be able to directly introduce cold and hot water to maintain the water temperature in the pool. This means that a stove must be built on the waterway to boil water. It is best to dig a well in the bathhouse, so that water can be used conveniently.

Zhang Chao also hopes to build several water towers so that the shower head can be installed and the shower can be used.

Build a few more cabins to steam a sauna.

In short, Zhang Chao imagined that this bathroom would accommodate the bathing needs of hundreds of employees of Zhang's company in the future, and of course, it would also meet Zhang Chao's own bathing needs.

"Sanlang, this project is a little too big. You have to build a house, dig a well, dig multiple bathhouses, repair stoves, and build a water tower, and what about steaming and picking up a room?"

Ke Wuyi's words brought Zhang Chao back to reality. He didn't have so much time and manpower at all.

"Let's do this, just build a big house first, wooden house, you can do nothing else, but you need to need a bathtub, you can build a few water towers, and you need to burn hot water stoves, so it's best to build a well. Please ask the craftsman who dug the well to come over. If you build a house, you can also invite a carpenter."

"This costs a lot. It's not necessary to spend so much money to take a shower, right?" Ke Shan also said.

"Of course it is necessary. We are catering and eating. Hygiene is the most important thing. You are full of lice and fleas. Who dares to eat what you make? Besides, taking a bath frequently can prevent diseases."

After experiencing the pain of being bitten by fleas last night, Zhang Chao did not want his employees to still be crawling around with fleas and lice on them in the future.

Ke Wu and the others had never built a bathhouse and bathhouse, so Zhang Chao had to explain in detail to them.

"First dig a large pool underground, lay stone strips or bricks that are not easy to seep, and add a heated stove in front of the bath. After heating the cold water, then pour it into the bath, and try to keep the temperature of the pond meat as appropriate. As for the water tower, it is also very simple. The water tower is to build a high platform like the tower and erect a large water tank on the top. This water tower does not need to be too high, it is enough to be seven or eight feet high."

"As for the water supply tower, build a water storage pool under the tower, and then directly install a water wheel from the storage tower to the water tower to get the water."

With the water tower, a simple version of tap water can be built with bamboo tubes, and a shower can be installed and a shower can be taken.

"What awesome."

Cheng Chumo was very surprised to hear that his family was the Duke's Mansion, but there was no such a powerful bathhouse.

The Cheng family has a separate bathroom. Fugui family usually has this kind of bathroom, and there is a special name, called Shu. The bathrooms are usually set up near the kitchen. They will not dig a bathtub as luxuriously as Zhang Chao, but dig a special drainage channel, which is enough to place a large bathtub, and then put a clothes rack and a larger bath bed next to it, so that there can be a place to hang clothes and cloth towels and sit and take a bath comfortably. This is already very luxurious.

Zhang Chao didn't think it was too luxurious. It wouldn't cost much to build a bathroom. However, if it was maintained in the future, it would have to consume a lot of firewood and a dedicated person would have to boil water and traffic.

But as long as you can enjoy a comfortable bath, Zhang Chao thinks it is worth spending some money. What is the use of making money? Isn’t it just for enjoyment?

How could a dignified landlord not even have a bathhouse?

"Brother Wenyuan, when I went out in the morning, my father asked me to tell you to send the soap early."

"I'm just about to start construction and I have to do some preparations. What's the hurry for Uncle Cheng?"

"My dad said he would give it to someone and advertise our soap!"

"This is a good thing. I will make a batch in a while." Zhang Chao said seriously.

After breakfast, Qin Dan went to buy, and Zhang Chao pulled Cheng Chumo to make soap for himself.

It is not difficult to make soap, but the key is to have hot alkali. The soap is very fragrant and looks beautiful, but the production process is definitely not good-looking, and it is even a bit disgusting.

Especially the animal fat used by Zhang Chao to make soap, it is not the lard butter that he bought directly, but some things like skin, pancreas, etc., and they are thrown into a big pot and boiled into oil. The taste can be smoked from a distance and makes people feel disgusting.

You must wear a mask to stay.

The subsequent process is not good either. The semi-finished soap is like a rosy in the pot, which is ugly and unpleasant.

Anyway, Zhang Chao was fine. He worked hard all morning but his face looked a little ugly. On the other hand, Cheng Chumo said that he had been nauseous and vomiting for a whole morning.

When the soap was finally cut and put into wooden boxes to become beautiful and smelly soap, Cheng Chumo was still pale.

"Okay, here are nine kinds of fragrances, each with ten genuine products, and another sample of gifts costs 100 yuan. Take them back and give them to Uncle Cheng."

"Next time I make soap, don't call me again, I can't stand the smell."

Cheng Chumo rode away with soap and said specifically before leaving.

Chang'an City.

After Cheng Yaojin got the first batch of soap, he tried nine scents one by one. His old face was so fragrant that he said very satisfied, "Yes, Zhang Wenyuan didn't fool me."

"But, prepare horses, I'm going to the Qin Prince's Mansion."

If you get such a good thing, you will naturally have to give it to the King of Qin first.

Qin Wang Mansion.

Li Shimin picked up a piece of soap in front of him and smelled it, "It's really fragrant. How can you really be as magical as you said?"

"Your Highness will know if you try it. After I used it, I feel like my face is ten years younger."

Li Shimin smiled slightly, put down the soap, and pondered for a moment.

"You are intent. Actually, Shubao just came and he gave me soap."

"Uncle Bao has come? Where is he now?"

"I asked him to pick up Dan Xiongxin and was released from prison."

"Brother Shan is released from prison? His Majesty has pardoned him?" Cheng Yaojin was extremely surprised.

"Well, you and Shubao both pleaded for him and guaranteed him that you are all generals under my command. I cannot ignore your request. I have worked a lot in front of His Majesty and finally convinced His Majesty to pardon Shan Xiongxin. His Majesty has issued an order to pardon Shan Xiongxin, and has not blamed him for the past, and has transferred Shan Xiongxin to my Qin Palace and let him serve as the commander of the Right Third Army. From now on, he will be Shubao's subordinate."

"Thank you, King Qin!" Cheng Yaojin quickly knelt down and thanked.

"You should go and take Dan Xiongxin quickly. Knowing that you have a good relationship, I will give you three days off first and wait three days before reporting. Tell Shan Xiongxin that you are pleading for your life. I will beg you to your Majesty to finally save him. I hope he can understand."

"Shan Xiongxin will definitely know Your Majesty's life-saving grace and will definitely repay his loyalty."

"Go, reunite with you brothers, I will accept this soap with a smile, hahaha!"
