Chapter 288 The chief of the case is too powerful(1/2)
Qiu Shubai looked at him in confusion.
Will all be delivered?
Zhao Ce patted his shoulder and said, "Take good care of your mother."
After saying that, he went back to his room.
A bucket of hot water was already placed in the room, and Su Caier was washing her face with the hot water from the basin.
Seeing her husband come in, she stood up from the table.
Zhao Ce touched her little face and whispered, "I haven't eaten much for dinner."
Su Caier hugged him and said in a little depressed manner: "The carriage is too bumpy and a little uncomfortable."
Zhao Ce kissed her hair.
"It's okay, just wipe it and go to bed early."
There is no screen or anything like this in this room.
Su Caier could only take off her clothes in the corner and wiped her body casually.
I don't know how long I'll stay here.
After Zhao Ce finished washing, Su Caier washed the clothes they had changed with the remaining water.
The clothes were hung directly on the windowsill, dripping with water.
After doing all this, Su Caier climbed onto the bed.
Zhao Ce hugged her, kissed her, and praised her, "It's so capable."
Su Caier sighed stingy and said with some sorrow: "Husband, are we very dangerous?"
Zhao Ce touched her back and said, "Although these people are not kind people, I really don't feel the intention to kill."
"Don't worry, the county master will come to save us in two days."
Su Caier said with some confusion: "But we are in the deep mountains now, how can the County Master know our location?"
Zhao Ce whispered a few words to her.
After hearing this, Su Caier's eyes lit up.
"I'll go and help them assemble pulleys tomorrow. You're in the house, don't go out."
After saying that, Zhao Ce also sighed.
"If we had known this, we would have just climbed over the mountain and returned by carriage."
But after thinking about it, the group of people said that they were chiseling open the Buddha statue, and probably wanted to empty the things inside.
As for what to do after the gravel is chiseled, they probably won't care.
If I had long thought of the weirdness inside, I would never help them.
Unfortunately, after pulling it with a pulley set, Zhao Ce roughly calculated that there might be something strange inside.
And it's the kind that's uncertain.
After all, the density of salt is not much different from that of stone.
Zhao Ce kissed the little girl and said, "I don't want these."
"The most important thing now is to ensure your safety."
...
The next morning.
Lao Gu indeed sent someone a long bamboo to come over.
Zhao Ce summoned Wu Xueli and others, pointed at the bamboo and said, "Let's deal with this bamboo together."
Wu Xueli and others were confused. They were a group of scholars at home and could be said to be free from spring water.
This is naturally a waste of money when it comes to work.
Although they also wanted to help Zhao Ce, they really didn't know what to do.
But the servant of the Wu family who helped Zhao Ce stood up and said, "Young Master, I'll deal with this bamboo?"
Only then did Wu Xueli remember that he also brought three servants.
He quickly said, "Ma Xiaohu, then you can help Mr. Zhao deal with it."
"And you two, you both follow Mr. Zhao's instructions."
The servant named Ma Xiaohu found a short dagger from his body and started to break through with quick hands and feet.
By noon, the bamboos were broken into bamboo strips.
Lao Gu brought people over, looked at the bamboo strips covered with the yard, and said, "The tools have been shipped, and I will ask the master of the case to come with us."
Everyone's hearts were raised.
Zhao Ce shouted into the room: "Cai'er, teach Mr. Wu and others how to deal with these bamboo strips. My husband will make you a lantern when he comes back."
After shouting, he said to the people lightly: "I'm sorry."
After saying that, he looked at Wu Xueli deeply, and followed Lao Gu and others.
When Wu Xueli and others saw Zhao Ce's back, they were worried.
When Su Caier walked out of the house, her big eyes were covered with a layer of mist.
She wiped her eyes, remembered her husband's advice to her last night, and quickly calmed herself down.
"My husband asked me to teach you how to make lanterns..."
Su Caier walked over and began to explain to them how to make the lantern.
Zhao Ce followed a few people and walked directly to the salt mine there.
Almost all the people I saw were unkempt and few were clean.
Everyone was curious when they saw this, the clean and handsome scholar who suddenly appeared.
Lao Gu took him to the well mine that had been dug aside and said, "This well mine has been dug very deeply."
"It takes a lot of labor to pull out the salt mine from it."
"Please help me around here. Suppose a pulley set you made before, so that our people can save some effort."
Zhao Ce looked up.
Their operating model here is to dig a tunnel to extract salt-containing rocks.
Then the rocks are crushed and dissolved, and then the salt is extracted.
The deeper the tunnel, the harder it is to move salt and rock upwards.
There are also many steaming pots nearby, and it is obvious that they are making salt.
And looking at the homework here, roughly, there are probably hundreds of people...
Zhao Ce took a casual look and said, "Yes."
"But I'll talk about something first."
"You are not far away here, and the pulley set I made cannot save as much effort as the Rava statue."
"And, different pulley sets have different weights."
"I'll observe it today and assemble one for you. The ones that follow must be calculated in detail."
Lao Gu said: "Okay, we will all listen to you if you arrange it."
After saying that, someone brought the things up and started assembled according to Zhao Ce's instructions.
"Lao Gu, this is really OK? Can a person weigh ten people?" a person asked in confusion.
Others were also full of curiosity.
A person who had seen Zhao Ce's magical power on the scene immediately said, "It's definitely OK!"
"Don't think that the master of this case is a scholar. The Buddha statue we used to transport salt was really pulled up by him and a few classmates!"
"How heavy is that Buddha statue!"
"This case leader is not an ordinary person."
"Those villagers who came to help said that he is a real Wenqu Star Lord!"
These people have been working in the salt mines on the mountain and have not gone down the mountain for a long time.
When they heard these things at once, everyone was amazed.
They all looked at Zhao Ce with admiration.
“It’s really so amazing…”
"Sure enough, scholars are scholars."
