The next morning, Qiu Yantang got up early. If the bricks were baked without any problems, she would take two to Feng Sipo to have her inspect them.
When they arrived at the brick kiln, Qiu Yantang didn't know why she felt even more excited than when she was burning the bricks herself.
"Test the temperature of the kiln with your hands. Open the kiln when it cools down. Come and try it."
Some are so hot that if the temperature inside is too high and the temperature outside is too low, most of the bricks will crack when the kiln is opened.
It's a bit like the glass marbles we played with when we were kids. They were all made of glass back then. You put them on the fire to heat them up, then throw them into the water and they'll explode.
However, some are fried into pieces, mainly due to the temperature.
They are doing the same thing now.
Qiu Yantang touched it again after a while and said, "Try it, this temperature is fine."
After everyone tried it out, Qiu Yantang said, "Let's start the kiln," and everyone started working in a hurry again.
Of the last 500 bricks, more than 80% were finished, and this was also with the help of Qiu Yantang. If they had done it themselves, the result would probably have been even worse.
"That's right, just follow this method and do it yourself. It's okay, and the yield rate will increase slowly."
Everyone looked at the bricks, and Qiu Dingxiang was even in tears. He didn't expect that he would be able to see such good red bricks made in Qiujia Village in his lifetime.
"You guys just watch it first. Find me a cloth bag and put ten pieces in it. I'll go ask Captain Feng to inspect the goods."
"Little Ancestor, why don't I let someone else go? It's really hard work."
Qiu Guangdong felt that it would be better for the little ancestor to stay here. After all, they still wanted to familiarize themselves with the process.
"No, I'll go, you guys try again."
Who is as fast as her?
Of course not!
Ten bricks are heavy...
Before Qiu Guangdong could say anything, he saw Qiu Yantang pick up the bag of bricks and walk away. He walked very fast indeed, and most people couldn't keep up with him.
"Alright, everyone, stop looking and hurry up and make the next batch. Our little ancestor worked so hard to bring business to Qiu Village, we can't embarrass her!"
After that, they also immersed themselves in the busy and orderly work.
Qiu Yantang took half an hour to complete the one-hour journey.
I saw Feng Sipo from a distance.
"Captain Feng!"
When I got closer, I found that they were preparing to eat. In addition to stir-fried cabbage, there was also a big bucket of mushroom soup.
"Did I come at a bad time?"
"No, you came at the perfect time."
Is there something strange going on?
After Feng Sipo finished speaking, he moved a stool for Qiu Yantang and said, "Eat here at noon. You can also try the cooking skills of the army chef."
Qiu Yantang nodded repeatedly, "Okay!"
"By the way, why are you here?" Feng Sipo looked at Qiu Yantang expectantly. Will he say something like "I miss you"?
"Oh, the bricks are ready. Let me check them for you."
After saying that, he opened the cloth bag and poured out the red bricks. Feng Sipo looked at the bricks and felt that they looked familiar.
The first time they met, they beat him with a red brick like this!
"It looks good!" After saying that, he knocked two bricks together.
Mm! Sturdy!
"No problem, these bricks are of great quality. I'll pay the deposit first, and I'll send someone to pick them up in two days!"
After saying that, he gave Qiu Yantang a deposit of thirty yuan.
"You still think you trust me." Qiu Yantang said, don't you even need a receipt?
"I trust my employees. Besides, I believe in you, Tangtang."
Hearing Feng Sipo say this, Qiu Yantang also felt quite happy.
After all, in her previous life, those who trusted her called her a master, and those who didn't trust her called her a charlatan.
"Let's eat first!"
The meal was ready quickly, and Qiu Yantang and Feng Sipo sat together to eat after getting the meal.
The army chef was indeed a real talent. "This mushroom soup is absolutely amazing, and the cabbage fried in lard is also delicious!"
It’s not that Qiuhua’s cooking is bad, Qiuhua’s cooking skills are definitely better than the chefs in this army, but Qiu Yantang’s family has limited seasonings and ingredients!
Qiu Yantang finished the bowl of mushroom soup in two gulps, "Another bowl!"
When he was full, Qiu Yantang drank five bowls of mushroom soup by himself.
At this moment, everyone became confused, including Feng Sipo...
"What's wrong with you?" Qiu Yantang opened his eyes wide, his face full of confusion.
"This soup... is poisonous..."
After Feng Sipo finished speaking, he fell straight down. He felt ashamed that the head of the special department and the commander of the special forces were knocked down by poisonous mushrooms.
“Hey hey hey…Feng Sipo!”
Looking at Feng Sipo lying on the ground, Qiu Yantang simply rode on him and attacked his face left and right.
"Feng Sipo, wake up! Wake up!"
This trick really worked, and Feng Sipo soon regained consciousness. He and Qiu Yantang looked at the people who had been poisoned, and then at the chef lying on the ground. He was definitely fine, it was the mushroom that had been picked...
"I'll go find some herbs to detoxify them..."
"Let's go together. I'm afraid you'll fall down halfway." Qiu Yantang thought, one more person means more strength.
"Then let's go together, but I can't fall down. My poison has been cured..."
Qiu Yantang didn't ask him how he solved it because she felt guilty.
I was also anxious just now. In fact, Qiu Yantang also knew about the detoxification grass, but now she was pretending and humbly asking Feng Sipo for advice...
"Tangtang, you drank the most, how come you weren't poisoned?"
Feng Sipo was still very curious. At that time, he saw Qiu Yantang drinking bowl after bowl, and now he looked like nothing had happened.
Qiu Yantang looked at Feng Sipo, "Maybe it's because I was born with a holy body? Immune to all poisons?"
The two men finished collecting the poison quickly and used water to boil a large pot of soup for them. In fact, Feng Sipo discovered this when he woke up. This would not be fatal, but it would make people comatose. If they did not drink the detoxification soup, they would be comatose for at least twelve hours!
After everyone woke up, Qiu Yantang said to Feng Sipo, "We can still pick some mushrooms in Qiu Village now. Next time, don't let them pick mushrooms..."
It's scary, but luckily the poison is not that strong!
If they were red umbrellas and white poles, they might be lying on the ground now.
Feng Sipo nodded and said, "The day after tomorrow, I'll take some people with me and bring some bricks along."
Qiu Yantang nodded, thinking that they would pick some mushrooms the day after tomorrow morning. If Feng Sipo and the others did not arrive as promised, the villagers would just eat the mushrooms together.
After the discussion, Qiu Yantang went back alone again, and Feng Sipo felt helpless.
I've walked on the road at night so many times that I'm no longer afraid of ghosts.
