Chapter 290 Training
Rong Chi gasped because of the spiciness.
Xie Shuangbai quickly picked up the coconut juice and fed it to him: "Is it spicy? Drink the coconut juice quickly."
He rinsed the chili peppers with water and added sesame paste: "Try it and see if it's still spicy."
Rong Chi gulped down the entire glass of coconut juice.
The meat covered with sesame paste looks very appetizing.
"The meat is delicious, little daddy, Chi'er likes this sauce!"
Xie Shuangbai cooked him a few more pieces of meat and vegetables.
"Then eat more."
He looked up and saw that Rong Ye had already finished half of the bowl.
His lips were red, looking like he had put on a layer of light lipstick.
Xie Shuangbai just thought she was a feast for the eyes.
Rong Ye saw that Xie Shuangbai had stopped eating and asked, "What's wrong? Is it spicy?"
He handed over the coconut juice: "Drink this."
Little Rongchi blinked his eyes as he watched his coconut juice being taken away by his father.
Xie Shuangbai was really amused by the father and son.
"I'm full."
Rong Ye frowned slightly when he saw that he was full after eating only a little.
"I'll ask the kitchen to make you some more porridge."
"No, it might be because of the bumpy road. I'll take a bath and go to sleep. I'll be fine tomorrow."
Rong Ye: "We still have to build a smooth road when we get back."
Xie Shuangbai nodded. "We really need to repair the road. Once the trade route is open, it will be easier to move goods. I'd like to have merchants contribute funds together. What do you think?"
Rong Ye: "That's a good idea, but there's no need to rush for a day or two. Let's discuss it after we get back."
"Well, we need to train these 30 people first in the next few days."
After dinner, Xie Shuangbai and Rong Ye took Rong Chi to the hot springs.
Xie Shuangbai took out all his toys.
He had a lot of fun playing in the water.
No matter how good the hot spring is, you can't soak in it for too long. When Xie Shuangbai saw that it was about time, he carried him out, wiped him, and put him to sleep.
He was wearing the little wolf pajamas that Xie Shuangbai had the embroiderer make for him, and was rolling around happily on the bed.
"Chi'er, it's getting late. It's time to go to bed."
Because it was hot, Xie Shuangbai also took a linen sheet so that he wouldn't touch his body when he slept.
Xie Shuangbai's body temperature is low, and Rong Chi likes to be close to him, and he keeps Xie Shuangbai very warm at night.
Seeing this, Rong Ye held little Rong Chi to his side, and Xie Shuangbai fell asleep peacefully.
The next day, Rong Yi came with thirty people. They were arranged in five large rooms. There was also an unexpected person that Xie Shuangbai did not expect.
"Why is the poisonous ghost here?" Xie Shuangbai wanted to stay away from him when he thought of the snake on his body.
Rong Yi saw through Xie Shuangbai's concerns. "Master Dugui is good at swimming. He knew you wanted to train us to swim, so he came to me and wanted to join us. I want him to learn and then help us."
Xie Shuangbai didn't think this poisonous ghost was so kind. He asked, "What does he want?"
"Please forgive me for acting on my own initiative. He said... if I could get a jar of the water you gave me last time..." Rong said while watching Xie Shuangbai's reaction.
Xie Shuangbai finally understood that they were planning to get the spiritual spring water.
But for him, the spiritual spring water is not difficult to obtain, and he does need someone who understands water to take the lead.
Xie Shuangbai: "I can agree to it, but he has to wait until these thirty people have fully learned it before he can leave."
Rong Yi said respectfully, "Master, don't worry. He has already promised me that as long as he can get the water, he will stick to it until the end."
Dugui is good at swimming, so this is not a problem for him.
It’s such a good deal that you can get the magical water you have been longing for just by swimming every day.
Xie Shuangbai didn't expect that this poisonous ghost would fight so hard for the spiritual spring water.
"Okay, after breakfast, let's meet at the pond behind the farm."
After everyone arrived, Xie Shuangbai did not rush to explain the movements and some swimming tips.
For those who have never been in contact with water, they are afraid of water.
He asked everyone to go down to a shallower part of the pond and try to experience the water, and he also counseled them psychologically so that they would not be afraid of water first.
The main reason for fear is partly due to fear of the unknown, and he wants everyone to get used to the water first.
After he saw that everyone was gradually relaxing, he began to distribute a piece of the prepared driftwood to each person.
And they work in groups of two to practice against each other.
He started by talking about how to breathe and asked Dugui to demonstrate.
Then comes the aspect of body posture: for example, how to keep the body smooth in the water?
How should the head, back, and hips be positioned? How should the legs be positioned? How should the hands glide? And so on!
Dugui was stunned by what he heard. In his eyes, swimming was a simple thing. He didn't expect that Xie Shuangbai could come up with so many profound truths.
He sighed in his heart that scholars were really good at talking.
Dugui felt that Xie Shuangbai was being too cautious and said, "Why bother with all this trouble? Just kick him in and flutter around a few times, and he'll be fine."
Xie Shuangbai used to think so too. He had been kicked in by his roommate and struggled several times but still couldn't learn how to do it.
Later I found a professional coach to learn it.
He paid a huge price for this.
Ever since he was kicked, he has been afraid of water and it took him a long time to adjust, so he does not recommend training in such a rough way.
Xie Shuangbai looked around and found that Qin Yan swam the best.
When Xie Shuangbai asked, he found out that he had gone swimming in Huacheng before, but his swimming was just average.
Yesterday, Mu Ning told him the key points of swimming, so he learned very quickly today.
Xie Shuangbai was very satisfied with what he saw, so he asked him and Dugui to lead everyone in practicing.
He comes every afternoon to check on the training results.
They trained very hard for three consecutive days, and of course the results were remarkable. Thirty people are now able to swim freely in the deep pool.
Xie Shuangbai also kept his promise and gave the promised spiritual spring water to Dugui.
He disappeared after getting the water, but it was no longer Xie Shuangbai's responsibility.
Rong Ye ordered Qin Yan to select three hundred people to come here for emergency training.
Once these 300 people are trained, they will immediately form a caravan and head to Huacheng to transport goods.
The next step is to train all the generals to be able to swim.
This matter was also handed over to Qin Yan. He needed to teach all the generals and let them train their subordinates to do the same.
Rong Ye had other plans in mind.
If war breaks out, the emperor will have to send troops from the south to attack him.
If his generals do not know how to swim, it will give the enemy a loophole to attack him.
Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that all soldiers under your command know how to swim.
Afterwards, he and Xie Shuangbai took Rong Chi to stay in the hot spring villa for another seven days and then went back. Qin Yan stayed to lead the troops, and Mu Ning must have accompanied him.
After returning, Xie Shuangbai started to work on the road construction.
Now that the road is open, his honeycomb coal will be easier to transport.
Xie Shuangbai spent a day writing the plan.
There are several hundred miles from Fencheng to Luoshui River, and merchants in each city can claim different sections of the road.
The more people claim, the longer the free use period will be. A kindness monument will also be marked on the corresponding road section so that passers-by can see it.
Xie Shuangbai gave the plan to Rong Ye.
"Do you think we need to hold a briefing on the road construction?"
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. Just follow the notice you wrote. The rules are very clear. Those who are willing to contribute will be registered by the government, and then the term of use will be set based on the amount."
Xie Shuangbai thought about it and decided it would be a good idea. This way he would feel more relaxed.
Rongye executed the decision quickly and the notice was released on the same day.
This announcement shocked many wealthy families in the North, especially merchants who frequently moved goods, and the escort agencies were very interested.
