Chapter 122 Preparing for a Trip
Since she had already gotten up, Jiang Xinyu had no intention of going back to sleep.
Xiao Yuan reluctantly went to work at the Dongchang factory, and Jiang Xinyu also wanted to find something to do after working out.
If you read 300 Tang poems by heart, you will be able to recite them even if you can’t compose poems.
As a modern girl, who hasn't read a few time-travel novels? You all have some understanding of the necessary pretentious skills that time-travel girls must have.
As a salted fish who just wants to eat and wait for death, she doesn't have any big ambitions, but the first thing she must pursue is to stay alive and live a quality life.
In order to keep catching salted fish, it is not impossible to fish occasionally.
She never asked about the famous poems after giving them to Xiao Yuan, and she was too lazy to care about the money-making recipe after giving it to him.
If there is money, she will collect some. If there is no money, then forget it. She doesn't rely on that little money to live.
After she used the remaining crossing skills in a circle, she finally locked on the hand-rubbing thunder and fire bombs and basic medicine making.
Other drugs are fine, but a batch of penicillin must be prepared for use.
After all, deaths from complicated diseases are a minority; the majority of deaths in this era are caused by infections.
The bodies of ancient people had never been exposed to antibiotics, so the energy of a portion of penicillin is absolutely enormous, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is a panacea.
Coincidentally, after the apocalypse, there is a shortage of medical care and medicine, and rubbing penicillin by hand is one of the popular life-saving skills.
There happened to be someone in their team who was good at this, and since she had a medical background, she also learned a few tricks from him.
Even though that thing is crudely made and contains some impurities, it can provide the greatest chance of saving lives if an acute infection really occurs.
She didn't mind it, as she seldom went out of the inner house and didn't have any major enemies.
But Xiao Yuan works in a high-risk industry and you never know when the material might be needed, so it's better to get some out just in case.
Whether you can live a good life when traveling back to ancient times depends entirely on your class. If you travel back to a peasant family, the various inconvenient living facilities can be exhausting.
But Jiang Xinyu was more comfortable, as she could mobilize a large amount of manpower and resources with just a random idea.
You just want to deal with Penicillium? That's easy. Just give an order and dozens of people in the mansion will cooperate.
All the moldy things were placed on plates and lined up for the lady to review.
If you don't have it, it doesn't matter. Just describe what kind of mold it is going to develop into and someone will immediately go out to look for it on the street.
Money makes the world go round, and with power, even that mill can be equipped with a turbocharger.
As long as something exists on the market, there is no such thing as not being able to find it.
After finding the right strain of fungus, Jiang Xinyu asked someone to clean up a room and seal the doors and windows.
Soon, stacks of brand new plate racks were placed in.
The kitchen is also busy, some are grinding rice slurry, some are boiling sweet potato water. Although I don't know what my wife wants to do, I just have to cooperate with her.
Jiang Xinyu is the kind of person who just wants to show off and focus on what she wants to do.
After preparing the basic culture dish of penicillin, he locked the house and did not allow anyone to enter. Then he found an empty yard and began to study explosives.
This thing is also one of the doomsday handicrafts, but the purification and content of various things in this era are different from those in modern times.
Even if Jiang Xinyu had done this in modern times, she would still have to readjust the ratio.
One sulfur, two nitrates, and three charcoals, ten to seventy-five to fifteen. Anyone who has read time-travel novels will remember this roughly.
But this thing is a matter of a hair's breadth. If you really want to succeed, you still have to go through repeated experiments.
Xiao Yuan came back in the evening, but Jiang Xinyu was still soaking in the yard.
We did manage to make two of them, but it's hard to say how powerful they are or whether they can explode.
Their house is not in a busy area, but it is a prosperous place. It is not a good place to test thunder and fire bombs.
Jiang Xinyu didn't have the habit of not talking while eating or sleeping. Every time they had a meal, the couple would chat and laugh.
But this time, because she was too focused on her thoughts, she neglected her clingy husband. Governor Xiao was immediately unhappy and asked for benefits in a wronged manner.
When Governor Xiao heard that Madam was testing weapons, he didn't quite understand. In his opinion, Madam just needed to enjoy herself.
Aren't there enough guards around her to protect her? How could she have to take action herself?
But he could only keep these words to himself, because his wife was not one to listen to advice, and she would easily get bitten if he said too much.
Jiang Xinyu suddenly remembered that she had several manors in the suburbs. Since it was inconvenient to conduct experiments in the city, she might as well go to the manors. The area was vast and sparsely populated, so it didn't matter if there was some movement or stillness.
Xiao Yuan had no interest in experimenting with new weapons, but he had never traveled with his wife since they got married, so he became interested when Jiang Xinyu mentioned it.
It just so happens that I am not too busy recently, so it would be nice to take a day off the day after tomorrow and go to the manor to play for a day.
Jiang Xinyu was a little confused when she heard about the rest.
"I thought the East Factory was open all year round. It turns out you have holidays too."
"What nonsense! All officials in Dajin have the right to take a day off, why doesn't Dongchang have one?"
Xiao Yuan hooked his wife's finger in amusement.
"Don't you realize that I can come back and have lunch with you in a few days?
I always have a day off, but the East Factory is busy and you always sleep in the morning, so I will go to handle some official business during my day off, and I will return home after you wake up.
Since you want to go to the manor, I'll come back early tomorrow night and we'll set off directly and have a good day the day after tomorrow."
Jiang Xinyu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Is it possible to ride a horse on the farm?"
I want to learn!"
There was nothing wrong with learning to ride a horse, but Xiao Yuan always felt that he was in trouble.
As expected, the topic got unstoppable once it started. The lady wanted to learn how to ride a horse, learn archery, learn how to use a bow and crossbow, and learn how to drive a car.
In a word, she didn't want to come back for more than ten days or half a month after visiting the manor.
The manors were usually located in the suburbs of Beijing, and it took two hours to go back and forth to the nearest one.
In other words, if Xiao Yuan still wanted to sleep with his wife at night, he could only ride his horse for two hours to the farm after get off work.
The next morning, I had to get up early and ride for two hours to get back to the East Factory to work.
This is assuming the weather is good and there is nothing to do at the East Factory so everyone gets off work on time. If there is a little delay, it will be midnight when we get to the farm, and we will have to get up again after less than an hour of sleep, which is not enough.
He can tolerate the long commute and poor transportation, but the trouble is that the nature of his job does not allow him to be so willful.
As an intelligence chief, he might be summoned by the emperor at any time. Not to mention being on call 24 hours a day, he certainly couldn't leave the capital every night.
At this moment, Governor Xiao felt deeply sympathetic towards all the workers.
The boss likes to find someone to understand the situation after get off work. Will you live to see me when I start working?
But unfortunately, his boss is not only his boss but also the biggest boss in the country.
At least workers can still be tough and say they quit. If he dares to say he quits, it would be like he doesn't want to live anymore.
This crappy job of his is either to do it or die, or to do it to death!
It was impossible for him to resign, and he was not even allowed to retire and return home.
The best outcome for the Dongchang Governor is that the prince he invested in ascends the throne, and his filial godson takes the throne.
Unfortunately, I am old and have many injuries and can no longer continue to serve, so this is the only way I can retire safely.
His adoptive father climbed to this point, but after retiring he only lived a peaceful life for more than three years before passing away.
At his current age, forget it. Even if a new emperor ascends the throne, he will have to wait until he has cultivated a trusted successor before he dares to step down.
In fact, one of the reasons why he chose the prince was that the prince had few confidants and could only rely on him.
