Chapter 276 I’m afraid Xiao Mingzhao won’t be able to eat it!
The next day, Yang Zhengshan went to Nanlingtun again and found that Zhang Hu had led people to build an ice house.

The igloo is ugly and has no aesthetic appeal at all. It is just a house made of ice blocks with bumpy exterior walls.

This is normal. Without a unified mold, it is impossible to build a neat wall. Besides, the ice house is built to accommodate the soldiers whose houses collapsed. It is enough to be livable, not to mention aesthetics.

There was a lot of straw on the floor of the igloo, and a bed made of stones and wooden boards inside the house. The bed board should be the door panel.

Even though it looked terrible, at least I had a place to live.

Yang Zhengshan was very satisfied with this.

In the following days, many thousand-household offices under the jurisdiction of Tenglongwei built ice houses.

The wisdom of the people should not be underestimated. Although it was Yang Zhengshan who proposed building an igloo, he soon discovered that the igloos built by everyone were different.

Some of them are just like building a house, putting up beams to prevent the igloo from collapsing.

Some are built in a hemispherical shape and don’t even need beams.

Some smart people even use snow from the spot to build igloos!
When Yang Zhengshan saw the snow house, he was completely stunned!
This snow house seems better than an ice house!
An igloo has to wait until the ice is solid to be built, but a snow house can be built with nearby materials, saving time and effort, and there is no difference between a snow house and an igloo.

It was at this time that Yang Zhengshan realized what it meant that one person's wisdom is short, but the wisdom of everyone is long.

After seeing the igloo, Yang Zhengshan promoted the method of building igloos.

With the snow houses, the military households no longer have to worry about having no place to live this winter.

However, the snow house is only for emergency use. If Yang Zhengshan wants to solve the poverty of the military households, he will have to spend more time and effort.

November 20th.

Wu Zhan returned from Jing'an Prefecture, and with him came twenty carts of cotton cloth.

Looking at Wu Zhan returning with a full load, Yang Zhengshan felt relieved again.

"master!"

In the study, Wu Zhan's face was red from the cold and his body was wet. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot along the way.

Needless to say, it is very difficult to travel after the heavy snow.

It took Wu Zhan and his companions four days to walk the two hundred miles.

"Thank you for your hard work. You should go and have a rest, eat some hot meals and take a hot bath!" Yang Zhengshan said sympathetically when he saw him like this.

Wu Zhan laughed and said, "Master, there are still some things here that need your attention!"

As he spoke, he recounted his trip to Jing'an Prefecture.

"This is the first batch of cotton cloth, there are 3,000 pieces of cotton cloth, and there will be two more batches, totaling 10,000 pieces of cotton cloth!"

"The three batches of cotton cloth came from the Lin, Zhang, and Wang families in Jing'an Prefecture, and the prices are the same as the Luo family's cotton cloth before!"

"Master, I have promised them that I will pay them as soon as the goods arrive at Tenglongwei!"

Wu Zhan said softly.

This time he acted on his own initiative. Although he felt that Yang Zhengshan would not blame him, he was still a little worried.

After listening to this, Yang Zhengshan smiled and said, "You did a good job! I will give you a note right away. Go find Zhou Ren later and ask him to take you to get the cash!"

"Well, go to Wu Hai and get two jars of Baicao Wine as your reward!"

Baicao Niang is the medicinal wine brewed by Yang Zhengshan in the Lingquan space. He took out a lot of it and placed it in the Yang family's warehouse for everyone in the Yang family to drink, and sometimes he would also reward it to the servants and guards in the house.

"Thank you for the reward, sir!" Wu Zhan smiled.

He had experienced the benefits of Hundred Herb Brew, and he was extremely happy to be rewarded with two jars of Hundred Herb Brew. You know, Yang Zhengshan usually rewarded him with pots of wine at a time, but this time he directly rewarded him with two jars, which was definitely a generous reward.

Wu Zhan is also an knowledgeable person. Although he does not know the specific value of Baicao Niang, he knows that there are many medicinal wines in the world that are very valuable.

The Yang family's Hundred Herbs Wine was better and more valuable than any other medicinal wine he had ever seen.

Yang Zhengshan patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Take another hundred taels of silver. You are not young anymore, it's time to get married!"

Wu Zhan is not a servant of the Yang family. To be honest, Wu Zhan is his brother-in-law, just like Luo Feiyu.

Luo Feiyu is now the deputy commander of Tenglong Guard, while Wu Zhan is just a guard of the Yang family. It goes without saying how big the gap in identity and status is.

In the past, Wu Zhan was far inferior to Luo Feiyu in terms of cultivation and talent, but now Wu Zhan is no worse than Luo Feiyu in terms of talent and cultivation.

Yang Zhengshan felt that he needed to be nicer to him. In terms of money, the monthly wages of Wu Zhan and his friends were much higher than those guards who had signed indenture contracts. In terms of life, as his senior brother-in-law, Yang Zhengshan should pay more attention to him.

When Wu Zhan heard Yang Zhengshan urging him to get married, he actually felt a little shy.

Don't be fooled by this guy's usual nonchalant appearance, he is actually very innocent.

You're almost thirty and still hanging around. You're a little too naive.

"Do you have someone you like?" Yang Zhengshan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Uh, no, no!" Wu Zhan quickly waved his hands to deny.

"Really?" Yang Zhengshan felt that this guy was not telling the truth. "If there is, I can ask your senior sister to be your matchmaker!"

Seeing that he was still going to refuse, Yang Zhengshan said mischievously: "You only have one chance. If you refuse, don't come to me for help in the future!"

Wu Zhan stopped talking about rejection and said something hesitantly.

Even with Yang Zhengshan's extraordinary hearing, he couldn't hear clearly what he said. "Who?"

"Miss Yulu!"

"..."

Yang Zhengshan looked at Wu Zhan with a lecherous look.

Sure enough, men’s aesthetic tastes are the same, they all like beautiful women!

Miss Yu Lu!
Among all the people in the Yang family, well, including the wives, daughters, maids and all the women, Miss Yu Lu is definitely the most beautiful one.

At the beginning, Yang Zhengshan almost lost his control when facing this goblin, let alone others.

Yu Lu has been staying at the Yang family for the past few years. Her indenture is now in the hands of the Yang family. However, Yu Qingyi feels that she has a good talent for martial arts, and did not assign her some rough work like other maids. Instead, he let her work in the Yang family embroidery workshop, and often guided her in her practice.

Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and thought about it, and felt that it was not impossible to let Yu Lu marry Wu Zhan.

After all, Wu Zhan is not young anymore, and it is rare for him to find someone he likes. As his senior brother-in-law, there is no reason for him not to help him.

Although Yu Lu is young and beautiful, she is a slave after all. To put it bluntly, if she were to marry Wu Zhan, she would be marrying above her station. No matter how beautiful she is, she cannot make up for the defect of being a slave.

"Do you want to marry her?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"Yeah!" Wu Zhan lowered his head in shame.

Yang Zhengshan looked at him with a tut-tut sound, "I didn't expect you to be such a lustful person!"

"Ah!" Wu Zhan said in a panic: "Master, I didn't, I'm not coveting Miss Yu Lu's beauty~~"

He wanted to explain something, but Yang Zhengshan interrupted him with a funny look on his face: "Okay, food and sex are human nature. For men, it's nothing to covet beauty, but lust is a knife hanging over your head. The key is to keep your heart!"

"I will tell your senior sister about this. I think she will agree. But I am not sure whether Miss Yu Lu will agree or not. Marriage is something that cannot be forced. If Miss Yu Lu disagrees, don't blame me!"

Yu Lu is a smart person, otherwise she would not have disobeyed Sha Pingchuan's orders and done nothing in the Yang family.

Over the years, Yu Lu has been very down-to-earth and has been living a stable life in the Yang family.

……

In the evening, Yang Zhengshan returned to the main courtyard.

After dinner, he hugged his wife and children on the warm kang.

Little Mingzhao is already two months old. The skin on his face has opened up, and short fur has grown on his head. His big black eyes look particularly cute.

“Ahhhhhh~~”

However, this little guy gets particularly excited at night and won't go to bed until very late.

While teasing Xiao Mingzhao, Yang Zhengshan talked about Lin Zhan and Yu Lu.

"Do you think they are suitable for each other?"

Yu Qingyi was tidying up Ming Zhao's diaper, thinking for a moment, and said, "Whether it's suitable or not depends on them. Since Wu Zhan likes it, let's ask Yu Lu what she thinks. If Yu Lu is willing, then it's suitable!"

To be honest, she has always been worried about Wu Zhan's marriage. Although she is now the mistress of the Yang family, Wu Zhan and other disciples of the Tianqing Sword Sect are her junior brothers, and these junior brothers followed her to the Yang family, so she naturally has to be responsible for these junior brothers.

Over the years, other fellow apprentice brothers got married, had children, but Wu Zhan was the only one who remained silent, which made her feel helpless.

"Well, that's good. If Wu Zhan gets married, you can put your mind at ease!" Yang Zhengshan agreed.

Yu Qingyi folded the diaper, took little Mingzhao in, lifted his shirt, and said with a loving face: "My current worry is to find a partner for Mingzhao when he grows up!"

"Master, let's arrange a baby marriage for Mingzhao Dingmen!" She suddenly changed the subject.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the whiteness, coughed lightly, and reached out to help Xiao Mingzhao hold the rice bowl. "It's not too late to arrange a marriage when he grows up. If something unexpected happens by then, this marriage will become a bad fate!"

"What are you doing!" Yu Qingyi took his hand away in dissatisfaction.

"I'm afraid Xiao Mingzhao won't be able to eat it!" Yang Zhengshan said seriously.

"Stop messing around!" Yu Qingyi rolled her eyes at him.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the smacking little Mingzhao and said, "How did I do anything wrong? Look how generous I am now. I won't even compete with him for it!"

Yu Qingyi thought of the unspeakable things that happened before, and her cheeks turned red.

"What nonsense are you talking about, you old pervert!"

She slapped Yang Zhengshan angrily.

Yang Zhengshan laughed out loud, then looked down at his son, and the little guy looked at him with his big black eyes, as if to say, "Don't snatch it from me."

"Are you full? If you are, let daddy eat something!"

After hearing this, Yu Qingyi felt even more embarrassed and angry, and wanted to slap him again, but this time Yang Zhengshan pulled her into his arms.

"You're already an old married couple and you're still so shy!"

"Don't move, Ming Zhao is still here!"

"He's still young, it's okay!"

“Ahhhhhh~~”
