The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 333: by ability

  The children surrounded the dog, with words written in their little eyes: want to touch, want to touch.

   Gou Zhu just followed Yan Yu, if a small hand came over, it would nimbly dodge it.

   "Xiao Er, your dog is really nice, better than the puppy bought in Daji."

   "I'm buying a well-trained dog. Those puppies can be taught well even if they are taught well." Yan Yu said.

   "My dad said that it will take several months to bring it out. Unlike yours, which is a big dog, it can be brought out to play now."

   "I'll let you touch it." Seeing that the friends are really rare, Yan Yu suggested.

  The children cheered up.

  Yan Yu hugged the dogs and asked them to pet them one by one.

   "Xiao Er, what are those two big hooks that just got off the raft? Are they made of iron?" Da Gouzi was more careful, and found two iron anchors other than bamboo.

"That's the anchor. When the boat wants to stop, you throw the anchor connected with the iron chain into the water, so that the boat can stop." She explained: "Those two are made of iron, but they are heavy and heavy. Shen..."

  Here, Yan Lao Er is also explaining the origin of the iron anchor to the villagers.

"There are many boats on the side of the sea. Who knows which boat these two anchors were unloaded from. I don't think that kid looks like a good guy. I'm a foreigner who sold it to me. If we don't use it properly, I will I need to press him for more..." Yan Laoer said regretfully.

   Village Chief Luo hurriedly said: 'This is very good, very good, these two guys are heavy enough, and they can hit a lot of things after melting. '

   "Father, none of us can forge iron..." Luo Sanzui said quickly.

   "Didn't you just pour molten iron into the mold, and beat it?" Village head Luo looked at Yan Laoer. He was the only one with knowledge here.

   "Ask the man who changed the mold, and listen to what he has to say." Yan Laoer thought for a while and said.

  The old men couldn't wait, so they went to Qi's house.

  They tacitly concealed the origin of the iron anchor, because there may be a problem with the origin of these two iron guys.

  Old man Kang misunderstood it, thinking that it was something that had existed in the village for a long time.

  Xin said it's no wonder they are so interested in making iron arrows.

  With iron and molds, everything becomes simple.

  As for the consequences of private iron casting...

  None of his business as a bad old man.

  He told several old men in the village that he knew how to melt molten iron, and after the mold was ready, he only needed a few simple procedures to get the iron arrow they wanted.

   Watching several old men leave in satisfaction.

  Old man Kang continued to probe into the mold with his homemade crochet hook, shaking his wrist invisibly.

   After a while, he will stop.

  I vaguely heard voices coming from the yard next to me.

   It should be that Yan Er is back.

  He worked harder and harder.

  Occasionally, I would raise my eyes to look at the courtyard gate.

  Old man Kang knew that Yan Er would definitely come and take a look.

   Compared with his wife, Yan Er is the one who is really in charge.

  With a word from him, their family can survive this winter in peace.

  …

  Yan's second child went home and washed up a little, exchanged a few words with Li Xuemei, and then went out to the big stone.

   There were many people waiting for him, even the children from the village joined in the fun.

  Yan Yu left the dog at home and ran out with him.

  Dividing the bamboo is about to start.

can not miss.

  The boy scouts also have to fight for their share, so she, the leader, is not standing with her father right now, but is surrounded by children, standing in the innermost circle.

   Looking up, all the uncles who saw blood on the way to escape are here.

  There are many bamboos, and there are many people who want them, and I don’t know if there is enough.

   Yan Laoer looked at the people three circles away from here, and lowered his head to think.

  Before, the only people who held the bamboo crossbow were people from their own village and some boys from mountain villages. The others had never even touched it.

  But the situation has changed now, everyone has settled down, and there is only one name to the outside world.

  From Xiaoan Village.

   Become an inseparable collective.

  When there is no difference between each other, we should be consistent with the outside world.

  He has a decision.

   "The bamboo is all here, so we won't distribute it to each family. Let's work together to make a bamboo crossbow. First, we can get the best hair, and draw lots for the rest!"

   Hu Da and Hu Er were the happiest, and the two brothers responded first with a smile.

  The people in the village did not expect that the first person to attack was Yan Er and his daughter.

  I just heard Yan Yu say loudly: "Father, let's do it together. We don't have any objections to giving out to those who are good at archery first, but you have to make it clear about this lottery. Can our Boy Scouts catch it?!"

  The children clenched their fists one by one, looking forward to waiting for Yan's second answer.

   "It won't work this time, let's do it next time, and I'll make you a small bamboo crossbow next time." Yan Lao Er didn't make vague remarks, but made a very solemn promise.

  Yan Yu instantly understood what her father meant.

  The small bamboo crossbow can’t shoot far, and the bamboo is limited, so it is necessary to maximize the attack power.

   “We Boy Scouts use a crossbow like that.”

  Yan Yu continued to fight, and there were quite a few half-grown children in the Boy Scouts. Besides, the bamboo crossbow was light and handy, and it didn't take much effort to use it.

   "It's not fair if only the uncles draw lots."

   "What do you want?" Yan Er Er asked.

   "We don't mess around, regardless of adults and children, we treat them equally, otherwise we will compare each other and divide the bamboo crossbows based on our ability!"

  Yan Yu waved his hand, it can be said that everyone responded.

  The children followed and shouted:

   "Rely on ability, divide the bamboo crossbow!"

   "Rely on ability, divide the bamboo crossbow!"

  …

   One by one shouted, their faces were red and their ears were red, their voices trembled with excitement.

   This is the first time that Boy Scouts have clearly expressed their wishes.

  The adults have only one thought:

  These skin children want to rebel!

  Hands are itchy, waiting to go home...

  Yan Yu raised her hand again, and the children's shouts stopped abruptly.

  The clamoring voice subsided, but the atmosphere became stalemate.

  Village elders, look at me, and I look at you. The old men are very thieves, and they didn’t express their views.

   "Uncle, what Xiao Er said is right, since the Bei Rong likes to attack after the autumn harvest, the bamboo crossbows should be distributed to those who are good at shooting, so as to protect the village from disaster."

  Yan Xiangheng thought over and over again and decided to support Xiaoer.

  He trains with him every day, and knows the strength of these children best.

  I don’t know how many archery targets in the training ground were shot, and his junior was especially hard-working.

  With her as a role model, the children are very serious, probably better than most uncles in the village.

   Since it is an extraordinary time, extraordinary things should be done.

  With the support of her eldest brother, Yan Yu even raised her head up.

  Yan Lao Er couldn't help laughing seeing her look.

   "Then do it first, and then let's compare it regardless of size."

   This time, except for Hu Da and Hu Er, the rest of the men became nervous.

  The Hu brothers don't care about that, the bamboo crossbows of the two of them didn't run away.

   Hurry up and pick bamboo in loose bundles.

  The knives are all prepared, and they will start working immediately.

   "Is your father's double reeds working well together?" Yan Laoer secretly asked his daughter.

   "That's right, who is my father, he's full of drama!" Yan Yu didn't hesitate to praise her.

   Give her father a good meal.

  Yan Er Er sounded very beautiful, and asked her: "How did you convince Heng Er?"

  Yan Yu giggled and said: "No, I didn't tell my elder brother at all. The elder brother stood up on his own. It was very dangerous. Fortunately, he supported me."

   "In case the bamboo crossbow is won too much by your scouts..."

   "No!" Yan Yucheng said: "I will control the number of people in the competition."

   "In this way, it can promote healthy competition within the Boy Scouts internally, and externally, it will also give the uncles in the village a sense of urgency."

   "There are five arrow towers in the village, and there must be someone on duty on each of them. If we children don't go up, dad, do the math, how much strong labor will be spent on it every day."

   "It's different at the top of the Boy Scouts. Uncles can free up their hands to do other work, which can be said to serve multiple purposes."

"What's more, dad, you're going to go to the tiger with your elder brother soon, we need someone who can talk to us." Yan Yu sighed pretendingly, and said quietly: "I also want to be a baby, but the reality Not allowed, even my uncle wants me to be the head of the family!"
