ps: Ask for tickets, ask for subscriptions. Friends birthday, drink too much, later
The busy farming season is always difficult. After a month passed, after reclaiming nearly 10,000 mu of land, Leonard felt a lot easier.
By this time, the time has come to June, even in Ireland, the weather is a bit unbearable.
Ireland is rainy and humid, and this muggy weather is even more uncomfortable.
But Leonard didn't care so much, and together with other immigrants, he started to build his own house.
Thatched cottages have always been the place where the poor live in China.
If someone has traveled to the UK, they will find that this kind of thatched cottage is exclusive to the rich, and the poor cannot afford it.
The characteristic thatched cottages of ancient England, in modern times, not only the maintenance cost is high, but also the British government has listed this kind of houses as cultural heritage and issued laws to protect them.
At present, this kind of thatched cottage is still exclusive to the poor.
Of course, all the people who came to Ireland were Englishmen, and the houses they built were naturally English-style.
First, Leonard selected the longer ones from the harvested rye and wheat stalks, and took them home.
As for the straw, Sir John asked people to pile it into a haystack, and let the group of immigrants sift through it.
When Leonard came, the whole drying yard, the new immigrants who came with him, and the new immigrants who came last month, all came here to be screened.
Fortunately, there are a lot of wheat fields harvested this time, and Leonard has enough stalks for screening.
The screening criteria are relatively long and moderately thick, and those that are too thick or too long will not work.
After hugging him several times, Leonard returned home and weaved with his wife.
His daughter and son also watched with interest, curiously watching the uninterrupted activity of their parents' hands.
Leonard was originally from a civilian background, and he is quite skilled in this kind of work.
first.
It is necessary to match these straws of similar length together, weave them, and weave straw mats one by one.
Then hang it layer by layer on the girder of the house that has already been built, layer by layer, and then compact it.
Instead of our kind of piles piled together.
how to say? This kind of thatched house in England requires a weaving skill, and then puts a hat on the house.
If you look at it, it looks like a child wearing a warm hat in winter, round.
For example, on the window, the thatch will become a kind of semicircle, acting as a kind of shelter in front of the window.
The walls are white and with a chimney, it looks very cute.
This kind of thatched house, because the thatch on the roof is relatively light, but also has better airtightness, and the structure is very strong, so it is loved by the bottom farmers.
Basically, this kind of thatched house will not have problems for decades, and only needs to dry the thatch on the roof for a few years.
In this way, within half a month, on the allocated foundation, a thatched house belonging to Leonard's family took shape.
As for the disadvantage, it is easy to catch fire.
But in a place like Ireland with rainy and humid weather, this kind of thatched house is most suitable.
When his house was built, other immigrants also built their own houses one after another, and the whole Wenger Town looked more lively.
During the harvest and happy moment, besides grazing, the immigrants in Wenger Town relaxed a lot. At this moment, a piece of good news came: a theater troupe from London will come here to perform.
Hearing this news, the entire Wenger Town became noisy. In this era of lack of entertainment, enjoying drama is a favorite activity of the low-level civilians.
It is said that Sir John, who has always been cold-faced, heard the news, so he didn't even ride a horse, and hurried back to enjoy this rare entertainment.
The Leonard family is very happy.
After going through ups and downs, even the Catholic faith cannot be blessed and worshiped daily, which makes their family extremely uncomfortable.
Finally settled down in this place in Ireland, and my busy life came to an abrupt halt. At this moment, my heart was empty and I urgently needed to be released.
The arrival of the theater troupe cheered them up, and they eagerly wanted to see a theater performance from London.
In the entire British-occupied area, that is, the colonial point, Dublin stipulates that no Catholic church shall be built, and no Catholic priests shall be allowed to preach.
In this regard, most of the immigrants who have experienced such a turbulent life will turn to Anglicanism and become Protestants after their souls cannot be comforted by the pastor.
The Leonard family is different. Their beliefs are much stronger than ordinary people. They still believe in Catholicism and reject Protestantism.
In this regard, the major colonial strongholds will not persecute, and will take various measures to subtly influence.
For example, only immigrants who believe in Anglican can have the opportunity to enter the colonial upper class and become a master.
For another example, the daily rations distributed, those who believe in Anglicanism will be two levels higher than those of Catholics.
With such various methods, coupled with the brainwashing activities carried out in various colonial strongholds, most Catholics will believe in Anglicanism within a few months.
As for those tribes that are pro-British, Dublin requires that they should not impose mandatory requirements, but exert a subtle influence to make these Irish tribes become real Englishmen.
As for those ordinary and hostile tribes, the major colonial strongholds were captured, then reduced to slaves, and even sold.
The reason why there are no Irish slaves in Wenger Town is because it is at the southernmost tip of Ulster Province, which is much more dangerous than other strongholds.
So, at present, Sir John has not launched an active attack. Compared with the nearby tribes, the strength of Wenger Town is still too weak, so it can only be defensive, guarding this developed land.
June 3rd, at about three o'clock in the afternoon, the sky cleared up, the wet weeds were happily eaten by cattle and sheep, and there was a cheerful atmosphere on the earth.
The same goes for Wenger Town.
In the square in front of the church, the immigrants sat on the high platform with large tables and small benches. Looking from the top down, there were densely packed heads, big and small, which made people nervous.
The actors who had already put on costumes were performing seriously on the high stage, without a trace of nervousness.
At this time, the famous play "Henry VII" is being performed on the high platform.
The young man dressed as Henry VII, with a calm expression on his face, had a series of battles of wits with the French king at that time. Only then did he lead the French mercenaries with 2,000 trophies, thus opening the road to the crown.
The actor playing Charles VIII is an old man who looks confused and cunning, making the audience angry and laughing, and the air is full of happy factors.
While Wenger stayed behind, Sir John was also in high spirits, looking up, without blinking his eyes very much, and seemed fascinated.
