Chapter 406 Good things for educating children
The village was quite noisy tonight, with anger and wailing becoming the main theme.
In front of Dushou's house, there was a traveling businessman who was riding in the motorcade with a few bundles of hard plastic hangers to sell to the shepherd: "Sir, it will hurt if you hit me like this. You might as well try this." Clothes hanger."
The shepherd ignored her, and the walking merchant continued: "Don't underestimate this clothes hanger, it is not just for drying clothes."
"Psycho. Master, you know, she is Boss Wesson’s teacher. Why Boss Wesson is so smart is because she would hit Boss Wesson with a coat hanger every time he made a mistake since he was a child. As he hit Boss Wesson, he became smarter and smarter. ”
The shepherd was a little shaken and asked uncertainly: "Is what you said true?"
The traveling merchant said with certainty: "How can this be false? Do you know who said this? ?”
The shepherd shook his head.
The traveling merchant asked him: "Do you know about the Osmaga Empire?"
The shepherd nodded. Many people have been there as mercenaries and know that this country is very big. It's amazing. A finger sticking out from the west is as big as the Helvetia Federation.
The businessman said mysteriously: "This matter came from the royal mage group of the Osmaga Empire. Who are these mage gentlemen? Could what they say be false? If I dare to say anything nonsense, they will let me know." "Leave me?"
"I tell you, the sooner you use this hanger, the better."
The shepherd believed it, but said with some embarrassment: "I don't have any copper at home. I need to use it." Can I exchange cheese with you? I want two.”
The village is basically self-sufficient. The only products produced by the shepherd’s family are cheese and wool stolen from the landlord class. Food and clothing are all the same as those in the village. When people barter, they basically use no money.
The businessman looked embarrassed, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
"Why don't you sell four, one for each of you and your mother-in-law? Boss Weisen often says that two are used for two purposes, so buy two more for backup."
Boss Weisen looked on with a dark face. The traveling businessman sold more than twenty clothes hangers in exchange for a lot of cheese, woolen thread and dried radishes.
Frederick recalled it for a long time, and finally remembered that when he was in Ansbach, Psyche bought a clothes hanger and said that he would use it to beat himself, and next to him was Ponti from the Royal Mages of Osmaga. Gan and Thearesia she brought out to travel.
Frederick also understood why he wanted to catch up with Pontigan when he was in the city of Wien last year but was told that he was not at home. At that time, he thought it was because of his reputation, but now that he thinks about it, she may think that he is. Let's settle this account.
Some people cried and some laughed. One child came out laughing, holding a lollipop in his hand, which looked like a prize.
The cries of the beaten children around him became louder.
Frederick also learned something about the situation.
This one-hander has some talent for learning foreign languages. In his early years, he traveled around and learned the languages of several surrounding countries, and attended night school literacy classes in Wesson.
A few years ago, he bought a lot of literacy textbooks with pictures and gave them to people in several surrounding villages. He first taught phonetic symbols and asked them to memorize the words by themselves when he was away.
When someone speaks eloquently, such as the shepherd's son-in-law, he recommends working in his brother-in-law's construction team.
This teaching method is naturally not very efficient, but it is better than nothing.
The children in this village are the first to be beaten. The children from the next village will come tomorrow.
The traveling businessman is very depressed. He has to follow the convoy tomorrow, otherwise the hangers will be sold out here.
Frederick watched for a while and then went back to his residence to rest. He would have to travel early tomorrow morning.
The fireplace in the house was burning, Sanna's coat was hanging on the shelf in front of the fireplace, and the door of the box bed was ajar.
Frederick carried a few buckets outside to fetch water and came back to wipe himself and wash clothes. When he took off his coat, Sanna came out of the box bed, wearing autumn clothes and long trousers, and asked with a blushing face: "Can I help you?" "
"No need." Frederick shook his head, "I can do it myself."
After he finished speaking, he began to take off his clothes.
“Boom!”
The long-sleeved T-shirt weighing more than ten kilograms fell to the ground with a dull sound.
"Dong, dong, dong!" Then came the long johns and socks.
Sanna tilted her head, a question mark on her head.
She pointed to the only boxer briefs left on Frederick's body and asked: "This...shouldn't it be heavy too."
Frederick smiled slightly and turned away Take off your pants.
"Boom!"
The corners of Sanna's mouth twitched, this kind of thing was unheard of.
Be hygienic when going out in the wild. Wash your clothes as soon as you can to avoid fleas and other blood-sucking insects and unknown bacteria.
He prepared a few pieces of wood, which suddenly burned violently when he held them in the palm of his hand. The ashes fell into the bucket, and the surrounding temperature also warmed up.
Stir the water with wood ash, throw the laundry in, throw in a life-withering sterilizer, and then jump into the bucket and stomp on it.
The alkaline solution produced by adding plant ash to water can decompose and dissolve some oils, proteins and other organic matter secreted by the body, making them easier to wash away with water. It also has a certain bactericidal effect and can remove some bacteria and microorganisms and wash clothes. It can be used to wash people.
Sanna asked with a black line: "Principal, did you invent the foot-stepping washing method of those boys at Weisenberg University?"
Frederick nodded proudly. , put the clean clothes in a bucket of clean water, and then hang them on the rack in front of the fireplace to bake.
He was sweating a little after doing this. He still had two buckets of clean water. While adding plant ash to one bucket of water, he asked Sanna with a smirk: "Do you want to take a bath too?"
Sanna bit her lip and nodded.
Frederick put his right hand into the water mixed with plant ash. Steam suddenly appeared in the water, and then the hot water climbed up his body along his hand as if it came alive.
He immediately hugged Sanna over and said, "Close your eyes."
The manipulated hot water quickly wrapped the two of them, as if they had an extra layer of skin. The high flow rate allows it to wash away stains on skin and hair.
The night has passed, and the book will not go into details.
It was dark early the next morning. Mateo directed his men to feed the horses, thinking about whether to wake up the adults. What if the time was wrong and the adults were doing "morning exercises" and made them unhappy.
Before he could finish struggling, Frederick appeared behind him and asked: "I heard that it will be dangerous on the road starting today?"
Mateo was startled and turned around to see that Frederick had already put on his clothes. Tidy, I felt a little relieved.
He replied: "We are going to take a road that was newly opened two years ago. We are expected to spend two days and one night in the wild. There are many wild animals on the road. Although it is dangerous, there may be additional income."
Frederick nodded and returned to the shepherd's house for breakfast.
People here have lunch casually, just two boiled potatoes, and breakfast is relatively rich, otherwise they won’t have the energy to work.
The shepherd's wife went to the sheepfold before dawn to squeeze fresh goat's milk, and cooked it with potatoes, cheese and peas soaked overnight. The taste was a bit strange.
In addition, there was an unknown bird on the dining table that had been dried under the eaves for a long time. It was as big as a palm, and its trunk was given to the two guests. The shepherd's son could only eat a little bit of the neck.
Not long after the convoy left the village, Sanna asked Frederick: "Did you give that family a little more money before leaving?"
Frederick shook his head and said: "No. Ah, so many coppers as promised."
Sanna covered her mouth and said with a smile: "The coppers there are bigger than the ones here."
Frederick just smiled.
At this time, there was an exclamation from the front of the motorcade: "Bear, there is the Bear King ahead!"
