Lu Shao sees Shi Xiaorui chatting and smiles. Although he doesn't know what he just said is funny, he rubs her hair in a good temper. Fortunately, it's cold today. Shi Xiaorui combs a simple hairstyle in order to spread her hair a little bit more to keep warm from the wind. Otherwise, her hair will be disordered.

Shi Xiaorui pressed his hand and asked him, "recently, you have been making short darts instead of long ones. Will this affect the business of the escort agency?"

Lu Shao said: "this winter is not urgent. There are not many people in the escort agency. At first, they were able to do something in the county. There are many hidden dragons and tigers in the capital, but they don't show much. I plan to recruit some people in the spring of next year to train them a little. Let alone improve their level, at least they can cooperate with each other in the future.

At present, the situation in Beijing is a little tense. Unless the family is really poor, they will not be willing to let the young and middle-aged people go far. When the escort time is long, it is less than one or two months. Every time the whole line is finished, they will only give money when they come back. Now the prices in Beijing have risen like this, how can they wait so long. "

Talking about this problem, Shi Xiaorui thought of Chen Wang again. Now he is raising his troops to serve the king. Although I don't like the emperor, I'm also worried about the progress of Chen Wang. I don't know where he is now and what his momentum is.

Lu Shao was also inconvenient to find the old general during this period of time, and he didn't hear a lot of news. He also relied on his previous contacts with Qujiang.

"At present, Chen Wang's situation is not bad. He went all the way to the north. When the incident happened earlier, he caught several neighboring counties by surprise. Although the next few counties were prepared, their armaments were slack all the year round. How could they be their opponents? According to the news he received before, King Chen has won more than he lost, and has already laid down several big cities to the north. "

Shi Xiaorui was surprised: "so fast! Isn't it true that King Chen should not be an opponent of the imperial army? "

In some modern countries, local organizations and government troops are able to fight a close battle. That's because other big powers are behind the scenes to support them with funds and weapons. But even if King Chen can get funds and food from other vassal kings, it should not be able to close the gap, right?

Lu Shao said: "from the general situation, of course, King Chen will not be the opponent of the imperial court, but the emperor has always despised King Chen, and the courtiers have not paid much attention to him." at this point, Lu Shao gave a pause, almost could not help sneering, "the lion and the rabbit also have to go all out. The imperial court thought that King Chen might not even be able to cope with the garrison of the local counties, Who knows that when the four cities were destroyed by King Chen, they began to discuss how to mobilize the central army to meet the enemy. Now I don't know if the central army and King Chen's army have met each other. "

Shi Xiaorui sighed: "I hope it will be finished as soon as possible. Although I don't like the emperor, it's our own safe life that matters."

After discussing the current situation, it is of little use except to worry more.

Lu Shao is going to watch Lu Xiran. Don't let the little monkey go out to play against the strong wind. He plans to watch her do some indoor homework. It's so cold outside that Shi Xiaorui doesn't want to blow in the yard. She has to find something to do by herself.

Unfortunately, because she didn't want to read the story books written by various down and out scholars in this era, which were full of men's unrealistic imagination, there were no idle books at home to show her. The only travel notes written by Shi Xiaorui were boring. After a long time, she was sleepy and didn't find out where the scenery was in the book.

If you think about it, winter is coming soon. Although this dynasty is located in the Central Plains, the lowest temperature in winter is also below zero. It is estimated that there will be too much time when you don't want to go out. You must prepare something to pass the time when you are trapped at home in advance.

But thinking about it, Shi Xiaorui suddenly patted her thigh, just thinking about these details, how could she even forget the specific winter equipment!

When it comes to winter artifact, although the first thing she thought of was heating, air conditioning and hand warmers, now she can't get electricity and build equipment. Second, Shi Xiaorui immediately thought of huokang.

Huokang is said to have appeared in the Western Han Dynasty, and it has been used in many families until modern times. It shows that the performance of huokang has been tested from generation to generation, and it is absolutely easy to use and practical.

Because of the popularity of the hot Kang in Northeast China, as long as it is a TV play involving the Northeast theme, it will basically take the hot Kang out of the country. Therefore, as a southerner before crossing, Shi Xiaorui can still know the general shape and usage of the hot Kang.

Although I don't know why there was no hot Kang in the north of this dynasty, Shi Xiaorui was not afraid to pay for firewood. She was shocked and decided to make a hot Kang in every bedroom before the cold winter.

Shi Xiaorui is not afraid of the wind now. She can't take care of her hat and runs into the study with her neck down.

Lu Shao is watching Lu Xiran write in the room. There is a small brazier burning in the room, which is placed at Lu Xiran's feet, to prevent her from sitting for a long time and causing her legs and feet to get cold due to her lack of blood circulation.

Lu Xiran saw Shi Xiaorui come in and called her listlessly. Then she bowed her head and continued to write. After several attempts, she was smart enough not to rely on coquetry to avoid her lessons. In this respect, Shi Xiaorui and Lu Shao have been standing on the same front.

Shi Xiaorui didn't disturb her either. She took out a piece of paper and prepared to draw the design of the Kang.

The rectangular Kang was soon finished, and there was a special opening for firewood. It seemed that there was no problem, but Shi Xiaorui always felt that there was something missing.

Shi Xiaorui looked for a long time and finally remembered that there was no painting at the outlet of the cigarette!

The problem is that no matter which TV play it is, Shi Xiaorui has never seen anything like a chimney protruding from the Kang.

Lu Shao came to see what Shi Xiaorui had painted: "what is this?"

Shi Xiaorui's painting looks like a rectangular platform with an opening in the lower right corner. I don't know what it is for.

Shi Xiaorui even explained the use and basic structure of the Kang to Lu Shao with a figure. Lu Shao took the drawing and saw what was missing at a glance. He pointed out the problem pointedly: "where is the smoking place? And at this point, the temperature is too high to control. "

Shi Xiaorui hugged her head and said, "I'm also thinking that there must be a cigarette outlet. But the temperature is good. You see, our stove is on fire every day, and the water on it is boiling. Touching the stove is hot at most, and it won't burn people. We can also use the same material. "
