Chapter 183 Bathhouse, a magical place!



"Have you ever heard of a bathhouse?"

China's bathing culture has a long history.

There are few historical records of Dajing, and Jiang Zhenyu doesn't know whether there is such a place as Dajing.

Xiao Jingzhou thought for a moment and said slowly: "Miss, are you talking about the bathing pool?"

When Jiang Zhenyu heard the word "bathhouse", he knew that Xiao Jingzhou couldn't see it, but he still couldn't help but nodded.

“Yes, yes, yes!”

“That’s about the same thing!”

Jiang Zhenyu said: "You can build a large bathhouse in Zhiyi City for the people to use.

This will not only generate income but also ensure the hygiene of the people. ”

The most important thing is that the north is cold, and people certainly don’t dare to take a bath in winter.

...

...

After all, medical care in ancient times was backward, and incidents of people being killed by a cold were common.

It's warm in the bathhouse, so you don't have to worry too much about catching a cold.

If you don’t want to spend money, you can also buy cleaning supplies and wash them yourself at home.

Jiang Zhenyu told Xiao Jingzhou all the pros and cons.

At last, he asked, "What do you think?"

Xiao Jingzhou finally had a chance to speak: "Miss, you are very thoughtful. There is still a lot of cement and steel bars left for building the city wall.

I'll have someone draw up the blueprints and build the bathhouse right away! ”

Jiang Zhenyu smiled and said, "Don't bother too much, I have ready-made drawings here, I can just send them to you.

I'll buy some more bricks, and you can build a few kang rooms, so you don't have to worry about the cold. ”

Just do it.

Jiang Zhenyu bought red bricks, ceramic tiles, floor paint, and waterproof paint.

The battlefield outside the city needs people to clean up.

Twenty-five thousand people, who had eaten chili sauce early in the morning, were all escorted out of the city to carry away the bodies.

This time, in order to prevent them from escaping, the Dajing army drew their bows and drew arrows on the city wall.

The first wave of Chibei prisoners had experience in cleaning up the battlefield and moved very quickly.

In less than three days, the battlefield was completely cleared.

During this period, anyone who secretly kept weapons was beheaded in public to serve as a warning to others.

After that, the prisoners behaved much better.

Medicines, daily chemicals, and supplies for building bathhouses arrived one after another.

Xiao Jingzhou ordered his men to carry three boxes of razors to the military camp prison.

Lu Chen said a few words to Qi Hou, and Qi Hou covered his mouth and agreed repeatedly.

For a moment, heart-wrenching cries and curses were heard from the military prison.

"Damn Dajing people, you beasts will die under Beiliang's sword sooner or later."

"Let me go! Don't move!"

"Help! Marshal, save me!"

"No! No! No!"

"Woo woo woo~ You Dajing people are all bad guys!"

The floor of the prison was covered with tangled hair.

The prisoners tied to the chairs all had bald heads, like freshly peeled boiled eggs.

The captives had tears in their eyes and looked at Xiao Jingzhou and others with hatred.

"You Dajing have a saying, 'Your body and hair are given by your parents.

It would be better for you to kill us with a knife than to shave our hair! ”

Yang Jin's hand was on the hilt of the knife. When he heard the prisoner's strange request, he immediately drew out the cold knife and put it on the prisoner's neck.

The prisoner felt a chill on his neck, his eyes closed, and his legs began to tremble.

Yang Jin laughed sarcastically: "Is that all you have? You still dare to yell at me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the cold sword returned to its sheath.

Xiao Jingzhou said calmly: "Shave them all, leaving no one behind."

Before leaving, he also gave instructions to Yang Jin.

"It's cold in winter, and without their hair to keep them warm, they might catch a cold.

Send people to the garment factory to get the cloth, cut it into scarves, and give them to them to wrap their heads. ”

Yang Jin looked back at the prisoner who was still crying silently, and couldn't help but smile.

"yes!"

The hair of all 25,000 people has been shaved and the bathhouse has been built.

Lu Chen specifically ordered that a place be set aside to build a bathhouse for Xiao Jingzhou.

The women of the Gu family also set aside a place near the women's bath and built a convenient bathing pool.

When the people heard that there was a bathing pool, they all asked how to get in.

You can spend money, barter, or even use food coupons.

When people saw the notice, they began to line up to register.

at night.

500 prisoners were escorted out of the prison. They covered their heads for fear that their headscarves would be blown away and their scalps were numb from the cold.

The soldiers escorting the prisoners were illuminated by people holding outdoor lights in front and behind.

The prisoners were almost charmed by the sight of the outdoor lights.

Many people began to whisper.

"What is that thing that lights up?"

"Could it be a guiding light that is sending us all to the underworld?"

The cold wind was howling and everyone was shivering with cold.

A group of people came to the big house.

"Go in!"

Everyone stepped into the house, and the misty fog blew on people's faces, as if they were being caressed by warm wind.

Yang Jin took off his shoes, slung a knife around his waist, and walked inside.

"Take off all their clothes!"

The prisoners were facing a formidable enemy.

"A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated!"

"Just kill me!"

Yang Jin smiled evilly: "If you don't take off your clothes, I will kill you on the spot!"

Their heads were shaved, and many of the prisoners were willing to take off their clothes.

More than a dozen tough men also had knives at their necks and resigned themselves to taking off their clothes.

A group of people jumped into the bathtub like dumplings.

Now everyone reacted.

"water!"

“Hot water!”

“This is not waterboarding!”

"Great, there is finally water. I haven't taken a bath in two years."

The prisoners had not had a proper bath for two years and their bodies were covered in mud.

After soaking for a while, the water in the pool turned black.

Yang Jin grabbed a prisoner and asked the soldiers to demonstrate to them how to make foam with shower gel.

How to use a bath towel to rub mud off your body.

The prisoners were stunned and began to follow suit.

Layer after layer of mud fell off the skin.

The rough skin also began to become smooth.

After taking a bath, the prisoners all smelled delicious.

Looking around, all you see are bare boiled eggs.

Yang Jin distributed ointment to people with blisters on their bodies and told them how to use it.

He said: “Your Highness the Crown Prince is kind and benevolent, so he is willing to treat you like this.

If you dare to have any other intentions, the poison will take your lives directly! ”

The prisoners looked at each other, wondering if they were dreaming.

Not only are there new clothes to wear, but there are also medicines to cure diseases.

But when they heard about poison, they felt pain in their mouths, stomachs, and buttocks.

Seeing that the threat was effective, Yang Jin ordered his men to escort the prisoners back to the prison.

The other side.

Lu Chen carried the clean clothes and placed them on the side of the bathtub.

“Your Highness, put everything aside.

I'm waiting outside. If you need anything, please call me in. ”

Xiao Jingzhou hummed lightly.

Soon, the sound of a door closing was heard.

Xiao Jingzhou sat on the edge of the bathtub, the hot water flooded over his whole body, wrapping him up.

He closed his eyes and enjoyed the brief moment of happiness.

There was a pot of hot tea on the tray next to it.

Just as he was about to reach out to take it, he heard a clear female voice.

Suddenly, his whole body felt numb.
