Chapter 341 Gloves and Masks
Chapter 341 Gloves and Masks
Sheng Zhen returned to his yard, washed away the fatigue of a day's running around, and went to the study with the book given by Zheng Sisi.
Sheng Zhen sat at the desk holding the book and said, "You are so mysterious, why don't you tell me the content?" He chuckled and turned the page to read the synopsis. He instantly became alert. No wonder the little girl didn't tell him the content, but only said that she would like it. It turned out to be a book about national disputes and various battles. Sheng Zhen's mind was immediately immersed in the book. As for copying, let's talk about it after I finish reading it.
Sheng Zhen read until midnight last night, and woke up after two hours of sleep, still full of energy.
At the County Lady's Mansion, Zheng Sisi came back from morning exercise. Her three sisters and grandmother all got up and made an appointment to go to the flower hall for breakfast and then go to the teahouse to listen to stories.
Zheng Sisi admired their good spirit and didn't get bored even after listening to it several times. After all, there were not many entertainment programs in ancient times. Apart from listening to gossip about other people's families, men worked hard outside to make a living, while women stayed in the backyard to take care of their husbands and children. Now that there was finally a place for entertainment, they would definitely pursue it with all their might.
Zheng Sisi didn't stop them. As long as they were happy, it was fine. It was also a good thing for her grandmother to go out for a walk and meet some friends.
After breakfast, arranging work, and seeing off a few people who came to listen to stories, Zheng Sisi got on Sheng Zhen's carriage, Zheng Zhiyuan and Zhong Ruiyu rode horses, and Qingfeng drove the carriage directly to the street mentioned yesterday.
Zheng Sisi said in the carriage: "The toilet in the teahouse was very popular yesterday, and it amazed the guests. We should also renovate the one in the reception building when we have time."
Sheng Zhen took her hand and said, "Okay, tell me what you need and I'll transfer them back to you."
Zheng Sisi: "How is the cement factory in Qingshui County?"
Sheng Zhen: "According to the plan you wrote, the factory building has been built. Most of the people I used were retired soldiers, and I also recruited some strong men from nearby villages. The first batch of cement produced was used to build the factory building, and the second batch was used to repair the road leading to the cement factory. Now that road is as flat as the streets in the capital, and it is wide enough to accommodate four carriages. The road from your village to the county town has also been repaired, so you won't be bumpy when you go there in the future."
Zheng Sisi: "Well, if you want to be rich, you must first build roads. If the roads are good, transportation will be convenient, and if more people come and go, there will be business."
Sheng Zhen: "We are currently repairing the road connecting the county town with the official road outside. Once it is completed, the flow of people in Qingshui County will be even greater."
Zheng Sisi: "By the way, are the people working in the cement factory taking protective measures?"
Sheng Zhen asked: "What kind of protection?"
Zheng Sisi: "They are exposed to dust for a long time. It's okay for a while, but they will feel uncomfortable after a long time. I need to ask the cloth shop to make some clothes, masks and gloves for them. These are specially for the people in the cement factory."
Zheng Sisi thought about it and it seemed that there were gloves and masks in the space. The gloves were made of yarn, while the masks were disposable medical masks. She calmed down and found the two things, and took them out with her hand.
Zheng Sisi handed them to Sheng Zhen and said, "There is no material here for these two things. They can be made into this shape. This is a glove. You can wear it to protect the skin on your hands."
She took one and put it on her hand, it was a little loose, Sheng Zhen took the other and put it on his hand, it was a little small, Zheng Sisi put both hands side by side in front of her and laughed. She said: "How funny!"
Sheng Zhen felt the gloves he was wearing and said, "This can also keep you warm."
Zheng Sisi said: "Gloves are meant to keep you warm. Wearing gloves when you soldiers are on guard or patrol in winter will keep you much warmer."
"Bo" Zheng Sisi was kissed on the face, and Sheng Zhen's voice rang out: "Just as I thought, hehe!"
Zheng Sisi ignored his boasting and put on a mask as well, saying, "This mask can be made of gauze, with a few more layers of gauze or a thin layer of cotton inside. For cement factories, you can put some bamboo charcoal in the middle to prevent dust from entering the mouth and nose and purify the air. Soldiers don't need to put bamboo charcoal, it's mainly for keeping warm."
Sheng Zhen also took a mask and put it on, and hung the two ropes on his ears to secure it. Sheng Zhen said through the mask: "The people in your place are really smart, they can think of everything."
Zheng Sisi raised her little head and said, "Of course." In fact, this is the crystallization of people's wisdom for thousands of years, and they are just using ready-made ones.
