    When Burigude and the old lama walked into the courtyard, they found that although it was not big, there was a house with three front and two wings, which was enough for twelve of them. However, Burigude, who was used to living in tents, still  Very satisfied!

    But when Burigude walked into the main room, he found that there was no charcoal basin inside, but an iron bucket-like thing in the middle of the ground. The iron bucket was also connected to a long iron tube, but this thing was ice cold.  It was cold, making the temperature in the main room seem even lower!

    "Huh!" Burigude couldn't help but said angrily: "These Han people are really bullying others. Do they want us to freeze to death here?"

    Before Burigude finished speaking, Xi Gen'er who was following him said apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir. I was negligent for a moment and forgot to light the stove for you. Please wait a moment with this old master.  I¡¯ll light the stove for you, little one!¡±

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Xi Gener, hurried away, and hurriedly left, Burigude and the old lama glanced at each other, and had no choice but to go into the main room first, and they brought a guard, and they were arranged in the left and right wings respectively!

    Not long after, Xi Gen'er came in carrying a wicker basket. He was busy lighting the stove and said, "Sir, please wait a moment. Light the stove, boil water, and make tea. It will be warm."  !¡±

    Burigude and the old lama watched as Xi Gener skillfully put some dry grass into the iron bucket, then lit it with a fire stick, and then added some thin wooden strips. After the fire became stronger, they filled it in again.  There were a lot of black earthen cakes, and finally the iron bucket was covered with three flat iron rings and a small lid with holes using iron hooks!

    After finishing this, Xigener picked up the wicker basket, bowed to Burigude and said, "Sir, wait a moment, the fire will come up in a while, I will get you a pot of water first!"

    Then Xi Gener left in a hurry!

    After Xi Gen'er left, Burigude stood up and walked to the stove, looked around, then stretched out his hand to try on the stove, then shook his head slightly and said: "This Han people's thing is indeed exquisite.  Not only does it have a fire but no smoke, it looks like it can also boil water for cooking, it¡¯s really much better than a charcoal pot or fire pit!¡±

    The old lama sighed softly and said: "The Han people are not only sophisticated, but also very wealthy. Everything they use for heating and cooking is made of iron. But for the warriors on the grassland, a knife has to be passed down for two or three generations. If this continues  What should we do if we go down?"

    After hearing this, Burigude showed a bitter look on his face and said: "Although the prairie produces cattle, sheep, war horses, and fearless warriors, we have no minerals. Originally, the God of Immortality gave us the ability to plunder the Han people.  Right, but now the grassland is weak, let alone the Han people, even the Jurchens in Liaodong can¡¯t resist it. It seems that Changsheng is really going to abandon the warriors on the grassland!"

    The old lama closed his eyes slightly and said with an unfathomable smile: "That's why the Great Khan sent us to the Ming Dynasty. As long as the Ming Dynasty can support the Great Khan to unify the grassland, the warriors of the grassland will become the masters of the earth!"

    But Burigude shook his head and said: "Although what the master said is right, judging from the attitude of those Ming officials, we are afraid that this time we will live up to the Khan's entrustment!"

    A smile appeared on the old lama's face and he said: "Don't think so. There is a saying among the Han people that we should do our best to obey fate. What we have to do is to work hard to get the Ming Dynasty to support the Great Khan. Whether we can do this depends on whether the Great Khan has such a will  It¡¯s destiny!¡±

    Burigude's eyes suddenly burst into light. He clenched his fists and said: "The Great Khan is a descendant of Genghis Khan. He must have the destiny to rule the earth!"

    Boom, boom, boom

    While Burigude was talking, there was a slight knock on the door. Then the door of the main room opened, and Xigener came in carrying two copper kettles: "Master, master, the water is here.  The water on the stove will boil in a while, you two should wash your faces first, and the younger one will go and light the stove for the gentlemen in the side room!"

    As Xi Gener spoke, he quickly placed a copper kettle next to the washstand, used an iron hook to hook off the iron ring on the stove, and put another copper kettle on top!

    After doing this, he bowed to Burigude and the old lama, exited in a polite manner, and closed the door!

    Being disturbed by Xi Gen'er, Burigude could not express his lofty sentiments. He could only sit on the chair helplessly and said: "Master, this negotiation with the Ming Dynasty requires more reliance on the wisdom of the master!"  "

    The old lama nodded imperceptibly and said: "Don't worry about this. Although I don't know what those Ming officials want to talk about, it's nothing more than bargaining. However, it seems that a lot has happened since the new emperor of Ming Dynasty came to the throne.  What's new for you?It would be better to ask more about it!  "

    Burigude responded: "Don't worry, Master, I will pay attention, and I have found the right person to inquire about the Ming Dynasty!"

    The old lama gave Burigude a strange look and asked, "Who did you find?"

    Buri Gude smiled secretly and said, "That's the boy named Xi Gen'er!"

    The old lama pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly and said: "He is a good candidate, but his status is low, so I'm afraid he won't be able to find out anything useful!"

    But Burigude said confidently: "The master is a man of great wisdom, and he naturally disdains understanding of such conspiracy and deceitful things. In fact, it is often these low-status people who are easy to do things, because they are already poor and have no one."  Pay attention, so it¡¯s easy to bribe and get information!¡±

    The old lama smiled and said: "In that case, just do it!"

    Burigude stood up and walked to the door, opened the door of the main room, and suddenly a cold air hit his face. This made Burigude realize that the temperature in the room had increased a lot without knowing it!

    But for a man like Burigude who grew up on the grasslands, the cold in Beijing was nothing to worry about. He stood at the door and shouted: "Xi Gen'er!"

    "Hey! I'm here, sir. What orders do you have for me?" Before Burigude finished speaking, Xi Gen'er ran out of the west wing at a trot, carrying a wicker basket!

    Burigude waved to Xi Gen'er and said, "Come here, I have something to ask you!"

    Xigen'er trotted up to Burigude and bowed: "If you have anything to do, sir, just ask. As long as the little one knows, I'm sure I'll explain it to you!"

    Burigude pointed to the room and said, "Let's talk about it first!" After saying that, he went back to his seat!

    Xigener put the wicker basket by the door, entered the house and closed the door. He walked to Burigude and stood with his waist bent, waiting for Burigude to ask questions!

    Burigude was very satisfied with Xi Gen'er's humble attitude. He took out a half-weight of broken silver from his arms, threw it to Xi Gen'er and said: "You have served well, and this is a reward for you!"  "

    Xigen'er caught the silver and bowed with joy, saying, "Thank you so much for the reward, sir. I wish you all the best for your descendants, and for you to be a noble prince for generations to come!"

    Burigude laughed when he heard this, pointed at the stove and said: "You are a sensible person. Tell me what this thing is about. If you agree, I will reward you heavily!"

    Xi Gen'er's eyes suddenly lit up and he said quickly: "In response to your lord, this is called a stove, also called an Ende stove. It was made by Your Majesty. This thing is great. It is not only warm but can also boil water and cook. Then  The stove barrel can also lead all the smoke to the outside, so there is no choking in the room. However, the lid must be closed when using it at night, otherwise the soot will escape and poison people. So sir, you have to talk to the side room.  The elders explained it clearly, but they couldn¡¯t understand Chinese, and the younger one couldn¡¯t understand it even after talking for a long time. If something really happened, it would be a fatal matter!¡±

    Buri Gude nodded with satisfaction and said: "So that's it, this is a reward for you!"

    With that said, Burigude threw out another half a tael of silver!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
