Su Ying fell into a drowsy sleep, and today there was a slight knock from the door of the room, she opened her eyes and saw Xiao Jin walking in, the sky outside was still pitch black.

She grunted and turned around and fell asleep.

Xiao Jin glanced at Su Ying who was sleeping extraordinarily sweetly, the corners of his lips slightly raised, and then he took off his dusty coat, lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.

Waking up the next day, Bai Shuang found that the room where those beautiful boys were placed last night was empty.

"Huh? Where's the person? Didn't you go to clean the pigsty early in the morning?" Bai Shuang ran to the pigsty and found that the cakes in the pigsty were still there and hadn't been cleaned.

"Could it be that Madam asked them to do something else?" Bai Shuang walked to the front yard, only to find that Su Ying had just come out of the house.

"Morning, good morning."

"Morning." Su Ying got up late today and didn't go to practice.

"Ma'am, have they all gone to work?"

Su Ying asked with some doubts, "Who?"

"It's the boys who were brought back yesterday. The servants found that they were all gone."

"It's gone?" Su Ying walked to the empty space in the backyard and looked, there was no one there, she went back to the front yard to find Wang Su who was keeping watch last night.

"Wang Su, did you see those boys yesterday?"

Wang Su's expression was stiff for a moment and he said: "I see, they said that they all have parents and miss them, so the subordinates let them go."

Su Ying: "??"

Wang Su knew that Su Ying looked at him like he was looking at a fool, but thinking of the master's words, he still braved the pressure and said: "Madam, they are really, very pitiful! If Madam wants to punish them, they will Punish your subordinates!"

Su Ying glanced at him coolly, "From now on, you will clean the pigsty and chicken pen."

"yes!"

After Su Ying turned around and went to the backyard to wash up, Wang Su saw Bai Shuang staring at him in disbelief.

"Brother Wang."

"What's wrong?"

"Is your brain covered in pig feces?"

Wang Su: "..." I am wronged!

Bai Shuang sighed helplessly, "If you're a good person, you're just stupid."

Wang Su had a sad face, and when he turned his head, he saw Xiao Jin coming out of the house. He tried to find some comfort, "Master..."

"Go and sweep the pigsty."

Wang. Take the blame. Su!

Tian Mu found Su Ying, "Ma'am, we have dug a lot of earth pits yesterday, and the wood is ready, and we plan to start burning charcoal today."

"Well, I'll take a look with you today."

"yes."

After a short breakfast, everyone got busy on their own.

Su Ying asked the people in the west area to do work, and provided them with a lunch every day. At night, they would give each of them two potatoes or a handful of whole grains. It wasn't that she didn't want to give more, but because she had limited food storage in her space. There were hundreds of people here. It's a lot of consumption in a few days.

Although the food is not much, at least it won't make people so hungry that they don't have the strength to work.

The pit was dug in a relatively high open space near the stream. When Su Ying and the others arrived, they had already gathered hundreds of people from the northern area and arrived on the 1st.

"Ma'am, everyone is here." Seeing Su Ying approaching, No. 1 stepped forward to report the situation.

Su Ying nodded and came to those people, "Who has made charcoal before?"

Everyone in the team shook their heads. Just when Su Ying was about to continue, a thin middle-aged man raised his hand and said in a weak voice, "I, I've had a burn before."

His voice was not loud, but Su Ying still heard, "Come out."

The man walked out of the crowd to Su Ying.

"What's your name? Have you ever burned charcoal before?"

The man nodded, "My name is Mu Mu, and I used to work in the charcoal store."

Su Ying raised her eyebrows, she didn't expect that there were skilled workers.

"Under the existing conditions, can you burn good charcoal?"

"The best charcoal may not be so easy, but good quality charcoal can still be burned as long as the burning time and ventilation are well controlled."

Su Ying nodded, "If you can teach everyone how to make good charcoal, I will give you a cow as a reward."

a cow!

This cheered up the guy who hadn't tasted meat for an unknown amount of time, "I'll try my best to make good charcoal."

"Then it's up to you. You first tell everyone what needs to be paid attention to."

"good."

The guy was a little timid when he faced so many people at first, but gradually he became more confident when he talked about his professional field, and his voice was raised.

Su Ying listened from the side. The theoretical knowledge he said was similar to what she recorded in the classical materials. Many details of the knowledge were not mentioned in the tree, but he was able to open his mouth, which showed that he was really very good at this aspect. familiar.

"Everyone should do what he said first, and if you don't understand, you must ask as soon as possible. Don't operate blindly. Five people will form a pit for each group. Those who can successfully burn charcoal for the first time will get meat." , everyone uses dim sum, it’s not for me, it’s for yourselves to have a warm winter.”

With Su Ying's order, everyone started to work in full swing.

Su Ying also came to the pit and planned to try it out for herself. After all, it is right to learn more things without being overwhelmed by skills.

She didn't understand it before, but only after listening to this guy, she realized that when burning charcoal, the firewood is placed carefully. If the firewood is well placed, the firewood can be fully burned, and the quality of the charcoal will be better.

After stacking the firewood, Su Ying called the guy to check, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, he lit the firewood from below.

"Madam, many people came down here, saying they are looking for Madam." As soon as Su Ying covered the pit, she saw Tian Mu running over.

"Looking for me? Who?"

"They say they're from the West End, too."

After Su Ying finished the pit, he went to the foot of the mountain. There were a dozen or so young people waiting there. When they saw Su Ying appearing, they all stepped forward and saluted her humbly.

"Miss Su."

Seeing their gentleness, Su Ying remembered that they were the scholars he had asked No. 1 and them to pick out individually, but after they were picked out, she forgot to make specific arrangements.

"What?"

A dozen or so people looked at me and I looked at you, all with hesitant expressions on their faces, and after waiting for a while, they summoned up their courage and said, "The next few people want to come and ask Mrs. Su what arrangements they have for us. Now we We also surrendered to the Eastern District, everyone started to work, and we were still idle at home, feeling very uneasy."

"You're so hungry?"

this……

The directness of these words made them all blush, how could they have thought that Su Ying would hit the pain point so directly, really, it was so embarrassing.

"Yes, it is true that there is no food at home, but there are still wives and children at home. We found Mrs. Su only after we had nothing to do."
