The news that the heated kang in Lin Xiaoman's home was very hot and easy to burn soon spread in the village. The next day, Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu got up early and went to the wholesale market there to buy things. When they came back, they heard the door quilt outside.

Knocking loudly.

Looking at the sky, it was just getting dark. People outside didn’t know how long they had been knocking. Lin Xiaoman could only ask Lin Erhu to open the door. A group of people came in, one after another.

When the handlebar came to pull something, he was also surprised by the people in the yard, "Xiaoman, there are so many people coming to your house? Are they all here to see the Kang?"

"That's right, do you want to put up the Kang at Uncle Shi's house? If so, I'll tell the clan leader to put up the Kang at Uncle Shi's house first."

"That's good. I'll thank Xiaoman first."

"Uncle Ba Shi helped me a lot, why are you so polite to me?"

Go into the house and ask the handlebar to take the things you want to send into the city today. In addition to the items for the hot pot restaurant, there is also the cream that Shopkeeper Feng asked for. Let Shopkeeper Feng put the money in her account first, and wait until she comes back to the city next time.

Settlement again.

After that, groups of people came to the door one after another. Lin Xiaoman and Lin Erhu locked the door of the room where they lived, and everyone who came went to the unoccupied room.

Anyone who came asked them to burn a handful of firewood, and Lin Xiaoman did not refuse, but the amount of firewood added each time was not much, as long as the kang was slightly hot.

Today's weather is not cold enough to burn a kang to keep warm, and the people here have never felt the heat of a kang. They stay in the house for a while and then leave covered in sweat.

But even so, everyone has also seen the benefits of the Kang. Even if there are more than a dozen braziers burning in the house in winter, it may not be so warm. Everyone told Lin Xiaoman that they want to have a Kang at home.

Lin Xiaoman smiled: "I have made an agreement with Uncle Daqiang, and I will follow his arrangement on this matter."

When everyone heard this, they all thought that they should go to Lin Daqiang as soon as possible, otherwise everyone would have to sit on the bed. If they say they are late, will it be cold by the time it is their turn?

Lin Daqiang did not go to the county seat today. When he came back last night, he heard Lin Youwang talk about Lin Xiaoman's family's Kang bed. It was rare that his father, who had always been calm and steady, was extremely excited.

Lin Daqiang also wanted to come over to Lin Xiaoman's house early to take a look. But Lin Youwang told Lin Youwang what Lin Xiaoman had explained yesterday: "Xiaoman said he wanted the edge of the kang, which is a long wooden strip that has been polished smoother, about this thick

."

Lin Youwang used both hands to compare the thickness of the edge of the kang, "I still need a kang board to make a kang. I thought that once the word about Xiaoman's kang spreads, there will be many people in the village and outside who want to make a kang board.

It has to be dried, and you have to find someone to make the edge and boards of the kang first."

"Okay, I'll find someone to do it right now."

His father had a unique vision and had to listen to what he said. Lin Daqiang was not in a hurry to come to Lin Xiaoman's house. He went to the carpenter first and told him about making the kang edge, and asked him to stop taking on other jobs recently and concentrate on

Beat the kang edge.

If one person is too busy, find a few people in the village who can do simple carpentry work to help.

He also asked people to find a few idlers in the village. It doesn't matter whether they are men or women, but they must not be the kind of people who cheat and cheat, nor can they be the kind of people who add insult to injury.

First of all, let’s exclude Lin Shuanzhu and Lin Tianci. Even if he doesn’t want to admit it, Lin Daqiang is a little doubtful about his own vision of people.

Let these people learn how to make a kang board, and then anyone who wants to use the kang board can use it directly.

After doing this, on the way to Lin Xiaoman's house, I saw many people eager to find him after watching the Kang.

Lin Daqiang asked these people to go to Lin Dawu's home to sign up, and whoever registered first would be given a plate. He also told these people about the price of a kang plate and the materials to be prepared. He could use someone to make the kang board, but

Each family has to prepare the green bricks and loess for the Kang.

Also, people who hire people to sit on the bed need to be paid, so they can't let those people do it for free. This is something he had agreed with those people the night before and made an agreement in three chapters.

Fortunately, for the sake of the people in the village, he offered a low price for the kang in his village. One kang costs one hundred cents, and the board and edge of the kang are additional. If people in other villages or cities want it in the future,

Pan Kang, he plans to collect 300 Wen per Kang.

After hearing what Lin Daqiang said, everyone ran towards his house. First, they wanted to be the first to sign up, and second, they also wanted to prepare bricks after signing up.

When Lin Daqiang arrived, the east wing was still laying bricks, but those who built the main house began to build the flue and the kang in the main house after learning how to make the kang from Lin Xiaoman's place.

In this way, when the beams are laid on an auspicious day, they can go to make kangs for other people's homes earlier.

Thinking of the cakes Lin Daqiang drew for them that day, everyone laughed at Lin Tianci and Lin Shuanzhu in their hearts. These two people just have no life of making money.

Lin Xiaoman is bending over cooking on the new stove. He has not been idle all morning. Their siblings haven't had time to eat breakfast yet.

Seeing Lin Daqiang come in, Lin Xiaoman asked Lin Erhu to invite people into the kang room.

As soon as Lin Daqiang came in, he was hit with heat on his face, and his autumn clothes, which were not too thick, were a bit unwearable.

"It's really hot here. With the kang, it can't be too cold in winter."

Lin Daqiang touched here and there, then climbed onto the yellow soil kang and rolled a few times. He was as happy as a child.

Lin Erhu said: "Uncle Daqiang, my sister said that I forgot something before. After setting up the kang, you can't lay out the bedding directly, you have to make mats. This year, this will be a lot of income, Daqiang."

Uncle, let’s see if we can find someone to do it.”

When Lin Daqiang heard that he was going to have another income, he became more energetic, "Chengcheng, I'll find someone when I get back."

He knows how to weave mats, and many people in the village can do it. The reeds in the ponds by the river are in their prime. In previous years, they were harvested and used not only to weave baskets, but also to make fires. Now being able to weave mats is really another source of income.

.

At this time, Lin Xiaoman's food was also ready, and he brought it in for Lin Daqiang to eat with him.

Lin Daqiang also thought that there were still some things he wanted to discuss with Lin Xiaoman, so he did not refuse.

There were many people outside, so Lin Xiaoman didn't cook a very good meal, just a pot of porridge, a few egg pancakes, a bowl of pickles, and a few salted duck eggs. The only good thing was the big bones stewed with sauerkraut that was packed back from the villa yesterday.<

/p>

Lin Daqiang frowned after taking one bite, "It looks like water spinach, but why does it taste sour? Isn't it spoiled?"

Lin Xiaoman smiled, "Uncle Daqiang, do you think it tastes good?"

Lin Daqiang nodded, "It's delicious!"

After saying that, I couldn't help but put another chopstick into my mouth to taste it slowly, and then said: "Don't tell me, it's still different from wok."

Lin Xiaoman said: "This is Chinese cabbage. It's just pickled and turned sour, but it takes a lot of oil to cook."

Lin Daqiang couldn't believe it, "Don't lie to me, this is really a wisteria?"

"Why are you lying to uncle? Wait a moment, uncle, I'll go get it and show it to uncle."

After saying that, Lin Xiaoman went to the house where she lived and brought out a basin. In the basin were several sauerkraut plants that she and Lin Erhu bought at the wholesale market that morning.

The pickled vegetables are all small ones, and the outer leaves are pickled black and green. They are not as good-looking as the large yellow pickled vegetables sold in supermarkets and wet markets, but their size makes them look like the type of wok they grow here.<
