Chapter 2442: Changes From Last Year Are Reflected Today

"Come on! Come on..." Sanmenxia arrived, and the small robot on the ship cheered the trackers.

"Why can't this canal only go down and not go up?" Song Jing knew that this canal would be very useful after it was repaired. Now the boats going downstream appeared, and the boats going upstream took the original path again.

"There is a lot of precipitation in the upper reaches and the water flow is fast. Last year we went there in the summer, but this year everyone changed back."

Li Yi knew the reason. There was a slight problem with this canal. If the water in the Yellow River was large, the flow rate of the canal would be fast. The only advantage was safety.

"Aren't the human gates, the ghost gates, and the divine gates going to sink again?" Song Jing was surprised. Why build the canal?

“Sanmen was in danger last summer, and last winter we dispatched professional teams to dredge and blast the Sanmen channel.

All reefs will be blown up, and all the beaches where ships can easily wash ashore will be dug out. This winter there will be accumulation again, and we will dig out again.

I plan to make a steam engine excavator and put it on the ship, scoop by scoop, faster than manual labor. "

Li Yi told Song Jing why everyone took a different route this summer. Last year, the bombs exploded, and all the big rocks were blown away.

"Why didn't I know?" Song Jing realized that he had not participated, and no one had even told him.

"Song Zaifu has everything to do every day, and Li Jia Zhuangzi will take care of the little things."

Li Yi shrugged, "It doesn't cost you money, I'm just looking for some manpower."

Song Jing glared at Li Yi: "Change everything into a steam engine ship. You can get on from wherever you want."

"Song Zaifu really has a foresight. When the time comes, the tracker will go do other work." Li Yi nodded.

Lijiazhuangzi has been working hard to build a steam engine, but he can no longer resist Song Jing.

"The Yangtze River and other rivers with turbulent currents are in urgent need of fiberglassing." Song Jing was satisfied.

"Yes!" Li Yi continued to nod.

When yachts enter the Sanmen Gorge, they do not compete with the boats rushing down from the upstream in the channel.

There are no boats visible on the river. The winter wheat harvested elsewhere is needed by Jingzhao Prefecture and transported by train.

The boats here belong to shipkeepers to transport goods for merchants who can't queue for carriages.

In addition, travelers who cannot afford train tickets can also go by boat, which is cheaper.

The trackers were still shouting slogans to pull the boat, and they had pigskin shoes on their feet, and railings and handrails were built on the plank road.

Canvas shoulder holsters, rabbit skin kneepads, and wrist guards.

"Aren't they hot?" Su Ting observed with a telescope. He had seen the trackers barefoot and with sacks on their shoulders.

"Drawing itself is hot. Rabbit skin is not suitable for making shoes because it is too soft. Pigskin is just right."

Li Yi knew the situation without looking through binoculars, and the trackers' income increased.

“Usually trackers only pull fiber, but now they still pull fiber, but they have more than their own boats.

They borrowed money from Lijiazhuangzi and paid it back in installments. They bought ships to haul goods, and someone changed shifts to manage the ships.

It's equivalent to empty ship distribution. If someone wants to transport something, they hire their ship and they earn transportation fees.

The price of the reverse flow is high, but the return trip is cheap.

Pay back part of the borrowed money every month, and there will be extra leftover. "

Li Yi told everyone that the trackers now have other income.

Yao Chong raised his telescope and observed: "The people have few ideas of their own. They need someone to guide them, and they need someone to tell them the truth."

He thought about the problem. It was not easy for trackers to make money and they had to support their families.

They dare not think about buying a boat. The boat is too expensive and if it breaks down, they will lose everything.

Li Jia Zhuangzi gave them an idea and was willing to lend them money, presumably without interest. He even told them that if the ship broke down, they could continue to borrow money and pay it back slowly.

Only in this way can the trackers dare to buy a boat and run it for transportation. There is a job of pulling fibers and pulling fibers at regular intervals. If there is no boat to pull fibers, they can pull their own boats.

Zhang Jiuling picked up a cup of iced sour plum soup and said: "Only when the people see hope and their lives are obviously better, will they be willing to believe in the court. I think the tracker's food is good, let me ask."

"Ask." Li Yi also didn't know what other people were eating.

"I saw it. Their iron pot stewed fish, cucumber pickles, and millet rice are all gone. I'll ask what to eat for dinner."

The 033 little robot replied, the drone was flying in the sky and found a cook on the ground, two dishes, fish and cucumber.

When the drone went down, the cook looked up.

"May I ask, what's for dinner tonight?" came the voice of the little robot.

"Returning to Mr. Li, we have rabbit meat in the evening, stewed with yam and eggs, and then eggplant with egg sauce. We have a good harvest of winter wheat. We will eat pancakes with coriander and salt in the evening."

The woman in question replied that there was rabbit meat.

"Okay! I'll give you five jars of fermented bean curd, just wait!"

The little robot asked in vain, and the other five drones flew over with a jar of fermented bean curd each. Each jar cost 200 yuan, so the jar was no longer needed.

Other women came over to help take it off without being polite at all.

They smiled and waved thanks, watching the yacht rush up.

Zhang Jiuling was happy: "Yes, there is meat to eat."

Others nodded one after another. They didn't think there was too much food.

People didn't like eating fish very much in the past. It was too fishy, ​​lacked seasonings, ginger was expensive, and the preparation method was simple.

Newspapers always introduce how to cook, and the amount of ginger planted has also increased.

The price of iron fell sharply, and rabbits grazed in large numbers.

Teach the people how to take care of it, and after half a year, it can give birth to rabbits again.

They are usually sold to slaughterhouses and free up their own time to continue raising rabbits or do other work. UU reading www. uukａnshu.net

Rabbit meat is sold wholesale in slaughterhouses to butcher shops, stalls or restaurants, and rabbit skins are sold to places that specialize in leather processing.

The market price does not fluctuate much. No matter how many rabbits there are, they can be digested. If there is too much to eat in one area, they will be dried and sold elsewhere.

"Brother Yi..." Li Longji looked at Li Yi.

"Don't praise me, I..."

"Brother Yi, I misunderstood. I want to ask you to see if there is anything that needs to be improved when you look at the trackers pulling the ropes?"

Li Longji waved his hand, thinking too much! Who praised you?

Li Yi: "..."

I have made so many contributions, don't deserve a compliment?

He also picked up the telescope to observe the situation of the trackers and whether the plank road needs to be repaired.

After a moment, he shook his head: "No, the trackers know the situation themselves, and I will make a batch of nail clippers for them."

"They use their hands to grab the ground a lot, do they need to cut their nails?"

Bi Gou looked at his fingers, and he didn't keep his nails.

"It is used to cut the reverse thorns. The skin under the nails is raised. If you pull it with your hands, it will bleed a lot. It is convenient to cut it with nail clippers."

Li Yi told Bi Gou that it was because their hands always grabbed the ground and easily broke the skin.

Under normal circumstances, they pinched it with the other hand and pulled it off. If they didn't pull it well, a large piece would be pulled off, bleeding, and it was very painful.

Bi Gou looked at his hand again: "Xiao Yi, I have one here."

He stretched out the little finger of his right hand, and sure enough, there was a little peeling on it.

Li Yi reached into his pocket, took out the nail clippers, and cut it off with a click.

Bi Gou pinched it with his fingers: "It really works. I pinched it before, but you didn't tell me then?"

"I regret it even more now. I shouldn't have cared about you."

Li Yi took a deep breath and looked annoyed.

The yacht quickly went against the flow on the Yellow River, and when the sunset burned the sky red, it arrived at Zhuangzi.
