Chapter 158 Bansheng City

Seeing Su Yourong sending someone out, Zhou Qinchuan couldn't help but feel that time travel novels killed people. Many things that were thought to be available in later generations were actually available at this time.

If you don’t have underwear, please check out the shorts or boxer styles.

If you say that there is no paper when going to the toilet, the straw paper will be divided into types according to the thickness.

There are also toothbrush and tooth powder, which are cleaning products that people in later generations cannot live without for a moment, are also in the Ming Dynasty.

All of these things have caused him to lose the opportunity to make money and reach the peak of his life.

Now it is even more excessive. The fire kang can still be accepted by Zhou Qinchuan. He knows that this thing has history.

But what happened to coal balls? Did you travel through a fake Ming Dynasty?

This is why Zhou and Qinchuan are ignorant. China has been using coal since the Han Dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty, coke even began to smelify iron. During the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, it was very common to use coal balls to cook and keep warm in the Inner Mongolia area where coal resources were abundant.

Of course, Zhou Qinchuan knew without asking, that this must be from the White Lotus Sect, or they found someone to get the coal balls.

Because when he was trading with Mongolians before, he had also watched the yurts of ordinary herders close up.

As long as it does not rain or snow, most people cook outside the felt bags, using traditional firewood and cow dung.

I guess they couldn't accept the briquette for a while. After all, it was different from the concept they had formed since childhood, and the taste of the burn was different from charcoal cow dung, which was a bit pungent.

Having said that, it is really a good thing to have coal balls that can be easily obtained, so you don’t have to worry about what to use to cook and keep warm all winter.

Feeling the warmth of the room, Zhou Qinchuan was a little dazed for a moment.

If it weren't for the foreign lands, he wouldn't want to stay here for the Mongolian people and farm for the White Lotus Sect, otherwise it would be a really good place, with a few acres of land, a house, and a warm kang from his wife and children.

Of course, such a good house cannot be lived in for nothing, it is necessary to pay money.

You can rent or buy them, and you can collect both grain and silver. Even if you buy the surrounding open space, you can only have one or two silver patterns.

This price is considered a bargain for the three of them, but Zhou Qinchuan was not willing to take root here, so he finally rented it at a price of one yuan per month.

Houses and coal balls are good for wintering, which can be regarded as good news.

If there is good news, there will naturally be bad news. In order to prevent someone from escaping, Banshengcheng has formulated a strict Baojia joint position system based on the previous Song Dynasty.

To be precise, because there are not many Dingkou in the city, only one A is given to every ten households, and there is no protection above A.

If you move into Bancheng, you will definitely be assigned to the first class. When there are few newcomers, you will be temporarily assigned to the old class. When there are more newcomers in the next trip, you will be assigned to the new class.

In the same arsenal, if someone escapes, the rest of the people in the whole arsenal will not only be confiscated from the land, silver and money, but also individuals will be demoted to Mengren as servants.

It is not too cruel, but it is enough to make every household monitored and monitor others, effectively preventing people like Zhou Qinchuan who are determined to escape but have lost Batu and Banshengcheng.

"Brother Qin Chuan, Wang Wu wants us to find him in the past two days and report him the amount of Dingkou and the number of land acres."

The next morning, after eating morning food, Su Yourong and Zhou Qinchuan said.

"Sure, go and talk to him."

Zhou Qinchuan was a little excited and had to stay here for a snowfall, which made him extremely worried.

"Then how much land we want is suitable? Are you looking at enough for twenty acres?"

"Twenty acres?" Are you crazy? Is it enough? Zhou Qinchuan was shocked.

Su Yourong was born into a merchant family and he knew that Xiao Ji and herself were not allowed to mention it. None of the three of them could farm and wanted twenty acres of land at one go. Zhou Qinchuan doubted whether crops could grow in their fields.

"Nothing is difficult in the world. Brother Qin Chuan, don't want this place for nothing. It's better to make more food."

Su Yourong comforted calmly, although there were no farming work, there were so many people around her, just asking for help. They also had no shortage of mules, horses and livestock for farming. What should I worry about?

Zhou Qinchuan thought about it and it seemed that the Han people were like this. Even though they knew nothing about work in the fields before, as long as they had land, they seemed to be able to grow things.

Thinking that before traveling through time, the Chinese could harvest food in Africa and Siberia, where foreigners could not grow crops, they no longer opposed Su Yourong's decision.

Regardless of her, she is idle, so try it.

But he will not stay here forever. After the autumn harvest next year, he will find a way to leave here no matter how much he wants.

It has to be said that the people of the White Lotus Sect may not have realized that their actions of dividing land have made full use of the Han people's attachment to land and food.

As long as you have fields and abandon them before you get a bumper harvest, even Zhou Qinchuan, who has traveled through time, would not think so for the moment.

"What should we do if mules and horses are not grazing, and we will go out for transportation. We can't use so much plowing land in spring. Should we dispose of some of it, we can save some food."

While cleaning up the dishes, Su Yourong thrust at the cattle shed outside the house, where more than a dozen mules and horses came with them.

The three of them are not herders here, so they naturally do not prepare for the forage for winter. They can only feed these livestock coarse grains in winter, which is quite expensive.

"No, just keep it, we can afford it."

Zhou Qinchuan only thought for a little while and rejected it. The Mongolian people are not short of cattle and horses, so they will definitely not be able to sell them. Besides, they will flee next year, so it is not enough to leave these animals.

There is no shortage of food here, and the price of food is not high. With their wealth, they can fully afford these animals.

If you are weak and unable to survive this winter, you will survive the fittest and eat meat when you die.

The two of them had a problem with how to spend the winter again, but they seemed to have nothing to prepare for.

There is no need to worry about food. They still have a lot of food left. If they don’t have enough food, they can find someone to buy it in Bansheng City.

With coal balls, it is not a problem to burn the fire and keep warm. Just spend some money and buy it and pile it up.

In the autumn and winter, don’t think about fresh vegetables. Pickles and kimchi were not sold before, but now they are just for your own food.

Although mules and horses live well and have not taken the initiative to sacrifice themselves, they will be enlightened to eat meat, but they don’t have to worry about meat.

They are not short of money, so they can buy cattle and sheep to eat.

The clothes prepared in Gubeikou were more abundant. Three people bought a set of cotton coats and furs, and there were several beds of thick blankets and felt.

There are also leather boots worn by the Bianjun of the Ming Dynasty. The sole of the boot is not slippery, the boot is covered with tung oil and waterproof, and the boot is also felt lining to keep warm, which is most suitable for wearing on rainy and snowy days.

To be honest, the exquisite workmanship of these leather boots is no longer comparable to that of later leather shoes, which opened Zhou Qinchuan's eyes and was amazed.

With these things, it's enough to survive the winter.

When they went north before, Zhou Qinchuan's archery skills improved slightly. After hitting some prey and having tasted some sweetness, the three of them simply went out to join the city and walked around.

Even if you can't catch prey, you can still be familiar with the surrounding environment. Tantanbancheng and Mengren can tolerate where they can go as far as they can prepare for the next year's action.

Zhou Qinchuan believed that although it had snowed, there were still people who were still on guard and surveillance.

Sure enough, within five miles, a small team of patrol cavalry came to check the cards outside. In order to avoid language barriers, they specially arranged a few Han people in it, as they were really thoughtful.

Of course the three of them did not, so they were politely invited back.
