Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 1256

[Chapter 902 Hericium erinaceus growing on the tree]

The idea of Xiaobei and others is good, to serve the people, we can’t wait, we must take the initiative to go out.

Since I just arrived in Kunzhou, and I didn’t have immediate contact with the locals, I built a camp next to Dianchi Lake.

When the nine people came out under the protection of guards, they listened to the inner courtyard beside them and said that they should go to the southeast, along the Dianchi Lake, about ten miles away, and they could see people.

When Xiaobei and the others heard Shili, they first observed the terrain. Shili was not far away, and if they were riding a horse, they would arrive in an instant, but it depends on where it is. It is next to the Dianchi Lake. Is there a road in the mountains? Yes, there is a vague path. Passing people, or the way of animals.

The weather is good, and the grass grows lush. The grass on this road is a little bit different from the grass next to it, mainly because it is less and relatively sparse, but it is absolutely not allowed to run on horseback.

The nine little guys estimated that it would take about half an hour to get to the place. What if they ran?

It doesn’t take three quarters of an hour, but it’s easy to fall over.

“Is there a lot of people going to the place?” Xiaobei asked, don’t go to the place, it will take a long time and only meet dozens of people, which is not worthwhile.

The inner courtyard seemed to know a lot about this place before coming here, and immediately replied: “Now there

is a tribe in the past.

Is it?” Xiaobei asked again.

“Yes, there are some people whose surname is Meng. In the past, the language communication was not very smooth, and they needed translation. The most important thing is that the etiquette is different from ours.”

“Oh, I can’t understand what you say? What else is around?” Xiaobei doesn’t know anything about this.

“Further west is Liu Zhao.”

“What? It’s so close? No wonder I have to go west. If my brothers and sisters remembered how many cannibalism they had with Japan before, they couldn’t help it, it was easy. Kill them first, then… is it safe here now?”

Xiaobei has always heard about Liu Zhao, but never thought that one day he would be so close, and he vaguely felt that the situation was different from what he imagined. Maybe the local people would not treat him like the people in Yizhou.

The inner courtyard showed a gentle smile and said, “Everywhere is safe. As long as you want to go, you must be safe. If someone dares to make you unsafe, we will make them unsafe.”

“Oh, I believe in you. I mean If you don’t protect me, are we safe?” Xiaobei was depressed, we came to investigate people’s livelihood, and you were planning to go to war.

Two things.

“The Cuan surname area is safe, almost, they will not hurt you, they have a good impression of you, they belong to the farming tribe; the Mongolian surname is the livestock tribe. Going to the Mongolian surname is less safe, but I believe if they don’t plan to be exterminated. If you are a peasant, you will know how to choose how to treat you.

In the past, the surname Meng was the ruler in this generation, and the surname Cuan was naturally the ruled. Generally speaking, the farming people like peace and struggle with nature, because they can get more food ; Immediately the nation is more aggressive. They don’t build, but follow the laws of nature to plunder.

So, I suggest, let’s go to the Cuan tribe, which is convenient for communication. Even if you write, there are different people. Knowing, many habits are the same as ours.” The

inner courtyard introduced, which is also a kind of knowledge instillation.

It’s not just about being by your side, but also when the little ones have doubts.

Give explanation.

The nine Xiaobei listened very carefully. They cherished what the inner court said in their daily life. It seemed that every sentence was very simple and contained countless connotations.

“It means that people with the surname Cuan are bullied, right? It’s so pitiful!” Xiaobei began to feel sorry for others.

The inner court replied: “It used to be, but it is not now. Since the Tang Dynasty began to support the surname Cuan many years ago and pushed King Cuangui to the position of the vassal king, people with the surname Cuan are no longer bullied, and no one dares to bully them now. They, because the local regime is made up of them.

Another purpose of the visit of Xiao Gongzi and Xiao Niangzi this time is to build several projects. One is a dam and the other is an artificial river in Dianchi Lake. Otherwise, the local area will always be flooded. Almost every year, the water intake of Dianchi Lake exceeds the water output In this case, the consequence was that the water overflowed and washed away the fields and houses of people with the surname Cuan.

Another purpose is to leave 200 people to be added to the local government, so that people with the surname Cuan will not be allowed to rule all the time. Now there is no need to use barbarians to control barbarians.

After listening to the

others, Xiao Bei began to walk in the direction of the inner courtyard, thinking while walking, and discussing a few words with each other.

After a while, Xiao Bei looked at the scenery of Dianchi Lake and said, “We understand, really You can’t give them too much power. They were bullied in the past, but now that they have power, they must want to bully them back. It’s okay to bully them, but they are a tribe of animal husbandry and are good at fighting.

If you can’t beat others, let them be beaten, Datang has to send troops, and after the pacification, the dead will not survive, how sad?

And the people with the surname Mongolia are also part of the Tang Dynasty, and they also know how to raise animals. Wouldn’t it be better to combine the two?

Take what you need.

The elder brother and sister arranged for someone to stay as an official, the purpose is to make the two surnames merge into one, and the role played is greater than the two.

Also, we don’t believe that King Cuangui is better than ours in every way.

The people we left behind will quickly find out the local resources and make use of them to help the local people develop as quickly as possible, because the elder brothers and sisters will continue to use troops to the west, and the local area will become the rear very close to the front line, right? ?

“The

inner courtyard squatted down on Xiao Bei’s face and gave

him a strong kiss. He praised: “Our Xiao Bei is amazing.”

”

Hee hee, everyone thinks about it together. There is a little bit of achievement. It is also under your constant guidance, under the care of your brothers and sisters, under the expectations of your parents, and under the protection of the guards, we can learn and achieve at the same time.” of.

Oops, what about Liu Zhao?

They are closer to the future front lines.

”

Xiao Bei was humble and used it as her diplomacy trainer, and suddenly thought of Liu Zhao. At the beginning, my elder brothers and sisters left a lot of retreat for Liu Zhao, saying that they should eat more food first, and then deal with Silla and Japan. , and finally pointed the finger at Liu Zhao.

Moreover, the strategy in the early stage is to help plunder, which can be said to be generous, and the plunder of assistance can be changed at any time.

If Liu Zhao sees the results of others and wakes up, then it is the real follow-up method to cooperate with the previous method to help; if he is still obsessed, the follow-up method is another method, which can immediately make Liu Zhao fall into a doom.

“It depends on Zhenla’s actions, war is peace, war is over, and peace is over. If there is peace, we will pass the Liu Zhao, see the leader of the Liu Zhao, give a warning, and let the caravan follow suit. . Let’s enter India from the north of Pyu. Go there to seek fighter planes, and then no matter what you choose, you will have to go home by boat before next summer.” The

inner court explained the strategic intention.

At present, it is still impossible to make perfect arrangements for this strange soldier on his own side, because the soldiers are impermanent.

Since he didn’t know the local situation, Xiaobei went back and discussed with others while walking. When he could see the smoke rising from the kitchen from a distance, Xiaobei and others also discussed the result.

“We just made a calculation. I think it is not cost-effective to transport materials from this road. The journey is long and the terrain is complicated. It should be transported from Yizhou and further north.”

Xiaobei said to the inner courtyard.

The inner courtyard smiled and said nothing, while the other spoke.

“Yes, it’s a long way, and it takes a lot of energy on the road, but it’s transported from here. You can pass through Liuzhao at that time, and the things to be transported include dried sea fish, canned food, salt, and all kinds of fabrics. There are medicines and ammunition.

” Bei listened and nodded: “There are also portable musical instruments, drawing paper brushes, cooking tools and seasonings, because they are used by the military. There is no need to worry about the quality.

There are so many good things from Liu Zhao. The turf is blatantly moving. They watch. They wish to have it, is this their last chance?”

“Almost,” replied the inner court.

Xiaobei exhaled: “Okay, when things are transported in the Tang Dynasty, people along the road will try to repair the road, and provide some porridge, hot soup, tea, pickles and so on. Change to Liuzhao, If they want to live the same life as the people of the Tang Dynasty in the future, they don’t need to follow them to learn, as long as they don’t rob them.

It’s like the small bridge in front of my village. Good and evil are determined by the heart, thinking about heaven and thinking about hell. Not everyone has this opportunity, I don’t eat more food, and neither do Japan or Silla.”

After speaking, everyone continued on their way. What Xiaobei and the others couldn’t figure out was why his brother and sister showed mercy.

“Wow, look, look, there’s a big furry head growing on the tree. It’s very interesting. How does it look familiar?” Not a single word was shouted wrong.

Everyone looked at the tree, and saw an oak tree in front of it, and there was a furry lump in the place where one person was high.

There was an inner courtyard that cut things off and showed them to Xiaobei and the others. Now the big boy and the little boy recognized it. No wonder he looked familiar.

“How did it climb up?” Xiaoyuan wondered, pondered for a moment, and then said, “How does it grow on the trunk? Is there a Hericium erinaceus here? It’s amazing.”

“This area has the most Hericium erinaceus, and Other mushrooms, due to the climate, are also found further south, next to the Chenla country. The 200 people who stayed behind will help the local people to grow these things. The young master and the young lady said that this can be grown, not unlike the Red mushrooms, also known as pine mushrooms, cannot be fully cultivated artificially, and the semi-artificial yield is not high.

If it is artificially cultivated with Hericium erinaceus, the taste is slightly worse than that of wild ones, and people who do not always eat them cannot taste it at all. , it is an extra benefit for the locals, and it will be sold at a high price in the future.” The

inner courtyard continued to explain to the little guys.

Xiaobei and others have begun to fantasize that in the future, with the help of their own family members, local people will grow a lot of Hericium erinaceus, which can be sold directly to restaurants at home. When the cultivation technology is mature, ordinary people can eat them if they want.

“Hericium erinaceus is produced locally, so…the tribe we’re going to also have stock, right?” Xiaobei licked her lips and asked slanderously.

“Yes, there are occasionally merchants who come to collect them, and the price is fair. People with the surname Cuan will save the good things when they find them, and exchange them with the merchants at that time. I have brought gifts so that they can exchange their things and eat them. I’ll give you a taste.” The

inner courtyard said to Xiao Bei, which was another purpose of coming here.

However, Xiaobei heard the key words in the words: “Is it fair?”

“Yes, when the local people’s goods are priced at one-third of the normal price, when they exchange their own goods for the locals, it is the normal price. Three times, the exchanges are nine times.”

“It’s not bullying, it used to be lower, you can’t imagine what one pound of salt can get. In exchange for 80 to 90 anaconda guts, the profit is 100 times.

Three years ago, our caravan made a trip, and since then it has been 9 times the profit. Due to the long distance, this ratio is still acceptable, and it has not been overwhelmed. , after going back, the profit will be about three times.”

“That’s called 300%. It turns out that this is the case. If my caravan does not come, the local people will be even more sad. It is estimated that many businessmen go this way. They will all hate my house, haha, I set the price once I come here. When the locals see it, ah, it used to be too cheap. Is there no salt here? Do you have to transport it from elsewhere?”

Xiaobei immediately wanted to understand, he The family has been a villain once, but fortunately, he has left three times the profit space for others.

The inner courtyard replied: “Yes, the young master and the young lady said yes, and there are quite a few, enough for the locals to eat hard, but the locals can’t find it, and there is no means to deal with the salt mine. The people we stay will help. Exploration and mining.

Merchants who come later will not want to exchange salt for anything, they have to bring goods that are not available in other places, so as to improve the quality of life of the local people. This time we brought a lot of salt, which is half-for-half Send, don’t expect to generate much profit.”

“No wonder you said it was safer for us to come here. The hard work three years ago had an effect at this moment.” Xiaobei knew where the confidence of the inner court came from.

When the team came to the tribe, there were quite a few people in the tribe, holding knives of average quality, bows and arrows, and spears made of pure bamboo and wood. There were no iron spears. kind of.

Obviously, some people in the tribe have seen a large group of people in advance, and in the case of unknown enemies and friends, they gathered to deter and guard.

Xiao Bei looked at the opponent’s bow, arrow and bamboo spear, and shrank back. She couldn’t estimate the range of the opponent’s long-range weapons.

The team stopped, and someone ran over to negotiate. After some communication, the people in the tribe threw their weapons directly on the ground, which looked almost like surrender.

Then the people in the tribe changed their faces, and some people ran back and came out with pots to sprinkle on the ground. Normally, they don’t have this kind of etiquette.

It is estimated that they want to learn the behavior of officials who have reached a certain level of Tang status when they travel, but the learning is not complete, because there is no yellow sand to pave the way.

Xiaobei and others are already very satisfied with this, UU reading www.

sonicmtl.com It’s okay if you don’t study well enough, as long as you really have the heart.

They all know that it is difficult to get ethnic minorities to recognize you. It’s not that people deliberately have estrangements. It’s mainly because of the knowledge they have come into contact with. Many businessmen want to take advantage of others. When people find out later, they will naturally be vigilant.

When you are not sure whether you are really trustworthy, you will not have more contact with you, otherwise you should be deceived again.

It’s not so much distancing as a means of self-preservation.

At this moment, four men stood up, one hand on the gun handle beside their legs, and the other on the firing mechanism of the revolver.

“Don’t be impulsive, don’t fire at 0.3 seconds or 0.5 seconds, you can have time to judge.” Xiaobei hurriedly told the four people, these four people are the most powerful quick gunmen in the Tang Dynasty, and they specially protect them. Not even brothers and sisters.

Immediately, Xiaobei asked the inner courtyard: “I’m going to talk to you in a while, how should I introduce myself?”

“Zhang Xiaobei in the water and clouds.” The inner courtyard said.
