Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 582
[Chapter 207 The situation is miserable, looking for a breakthrough]
According to the household registration records of a certain period of time, the population of Yigongzhou area has 4,420 people who have not been re-examined for several years, and I don’t know if it is more or less. Novel MM Reading Network [‘www’] Free text update!
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan thought they could see novel clothes, but they met the local people. They were wearing similar clothes to the ones they saw along the way, but it was a little difficult to communicate. Most people didn’t speak Mandarin. The two of them can speak many languages, including dialects.
People who have a lot of contact with the local people and the outside world are full of fluent Mandarin, which makes Zhang Zhong complimented.
“Why do I listen to his words like a routine?
It should be said that when he met an official,
Zhang Xiaobao hoped that the other party would really praise his father.
“People don’t know who your father is. It’s good to speak clichés, and don’t offend people. It seems that when the Red Army crossed the snow-capped mountains, there were mountains here. When they settle down, go up and take a look. It’s so cold? It can freeze people in half. On the way?”
Wang Juan took a few deep breaths, and now it’s not uncomfortable, not the altitude sickness he imagined before coming here.
Zhang Xiaobao also looked around, and Li Su, who was standing beside him, didn’t know what to think of, with an excited look on his face, knowing that he didn’t need to worry for the time being.
Looking at the mountains in the distance, he said,
“The Red Army didn’t have much time to stay at the time. They had no strength to walk long ago, and they were frozen to death on the mountain. The most important thing is that many people don’t know how to survive on the snow-capped mountains. , I couldn’t find such thick clothes, just right, let Huzi and the others go up and crawl.” The
two sides exchanged vernacular and began to walk to the government office, looking at the road under their feet, all the first-time people came. Feeling sorry for the locals, it doesn’t matter if the mountain is connected to the mountain, it seems that it should have rained yesterday or the day before, and the moisture here has always been heavy. All you mud.
The elders of Zhang Wang’s family, as well as the three old men Bi, enjoyed the treatment of sliding poles. Zhang Zhong refused to be carried by others. He was used to exercising. He found a stick and chatted with the locals along the way. , I don’t know if he came here to organize logistics, and he is also preparing to learn about the situation of the local people, so as to help improve their lives.
The locals just had to cooperate with the answer, and they didn’t expect any official to make them live a good life. Generations of people have long been used to such things.
“Wait.” Old Man Bi sat on the sliding pole.
When the person carrying the net was about to start, he stopped it, looked at the big boat docked on the shore, and waited.
“What is Longze looking at?” When old man Yao saw that old man Bi stopped, he also called to stop,
turned his head and said
.
“Xiao Bei and the others are still on the boat and haven’t gotten off.
Zhang Wang’s family will never throw the baby away, let’s see how they go?
“Old man Bi pointed to the boat and said curiously.
This time old man Zhang also stopped, and the three old men waited together. After waiting for too long, the houses of the little guys came down from the boat, but they looked the same as before. The difference is that the plane is not a shelf that is lifted off the ground, nor is it the big wheel that was used when traveling, and it is not the wheel that was pushed and played in the yard. The
house has been replaced with a large chassis, and the house is in the middle of the chassis. There were also four people standing on the left and right, dragging the board of the house with something that the three old men did not know. It should be a strip of iron boards connected horizontally, forming an oval “chain” that connects front and back.
?
In the middle of the chain connected by the small iron plates is an iron reel with a slot. The eight people found their own positions and sat down, holding the handle in their hands, just like when they saw someone staring at the propeller in the Sanshui County River.
As the eight people kicked, the chain turned and rolled forward piece by piece, and the house moved under this condition.
encountered a small ditch.
No adjustment was made, and he just rolled over. After three old men slipped, there was still no obstruction to the uphill, even if the ground was muddy.
There is no dynamic balance this time. It should be too heavy to be used on the current road conditions. The little guys are all fixed at the position of the window.
Looking out curiously.
“Did you see it? No? The best things in their family are all used for the little kids. Who has seen this stuff? If it wasn’t for the little kids this time, when would they be able to see it? Sure enough”
Bi old man looked
When the house encountered a slope where it was difficult for people to walk, the chain quickly turned and the hard top went up, he pointed at the house little by little and said to Old Man Zhang and Old Man Yao.
Old Man Zhang and Old Man Yao nodded numbly and saw, “The house of the guys is just a pair of wings, and it is not surprising to have wings to fly tomorrow. It seems that all the technologies of Zhang Wang’s family are reflected in this house. This house What kind of terrain can’t be adapted to?
This is the road that is difficult to walk, and the power system can’t keep up. Otherwise, coupled with the dynamic balance, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a magical car or a magical house.
“It’s just a little slower. Hurry up, the old man Zhang looked at it for a while and concluded.
“That’s because the technology of the small gear driving the big gear is adopted, so that the people above will save their efforts. Look carefully at the chain, there are thorns on it. It should be specially prepared for the muddy road, keep up.”
Old man Bi looked at Looking at it, the distance is now far away, and with a hello, the person carrying the sliding rod strode towards the house.
It was not only the three old men who were surprised, but the local people also saw a moving house for the first time, and they looked back from time to time as they walked, the more and more they were surprised.
And the soldiers who were responsible for transporting food and weapons were also frightened by the house. At the same time, they wondered if they should make more of those things, take down the house, and put weapons and food on it, so that it would not be like carrying such a thing now. tired.
The three old men’s sliding poles chased all the way, and finally caught up when the house encountered a narrow place and was slowly adjusting, and also saw Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao who were following him.
Xin Guangbao and Wang Juan were standing on the slope, directing the direction to adjust the direction. The slope north of Tian Junyuan was muddy, but the two did not slip down.
When the direction was adjusted and the house continued to move forward, the old man Bi greeted: “Xiaobao, cuckoo. Come here. Grandpa has something to ask.
” Study carefully, when will the tanks and bulldozers fail to turn in the same direction? Cuckoo, I will give you the task to build a gasoline engine.”
Zhang Xiaobao said to Wang Juan as he walked towards Old Man Bi.
“No problem, just wait, what is a gasoline engine? I’ll make another aviation motive. When we fly in the sky, do we want a third-stage rocket? Shoot satellites all over the sky to monitor the ground.” Wang Juan returned angrily. one sentence.
“Grandpa Bi, is there any discomfort? Then I’ll find a doctor for you right away.” Zhang Xiaobao wisely stopped talking to Wang Juan, and came to Old Man Bi to observe the three.
The old man’s face asked.
Old Man Bi’s eyes were fixed on Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan’s shoes. After listening to Zhang Xiaomiao’s question, he nodded and said, “Well, I’m not feeling well, I feel bad, if someone has something good, they won’t tell me, my heart
is “is it?” Pull the cold pull the cold?
Zhang Xiaobao took it and raised his foot with a “short spiked shoe, good grip on the ground, don’t worry about slipping, why don’t you go back and make a pair for you?”
”
” Xiao Bei and their house what is going on ?
“Old man Bi really can’t guess how much technology Zhang Wang’s family has yet to come up with. Whether they come up with new technology depends on whether they need it or not. But they may not need it now. Don’t others need it?
Zhang Xiaobao Looking at the house in front of him that was stuck in the place where it was turned, he said angrily: “The technology is not mature yet, look, it’s stuck, wait until the technology is mature and then find a way to apply it elsewhere, Grandpa Bi, don’t worry, this thing My family does not keep secrets. My family only keeps secrets about technologies that are not directly related to people’s livelihood and national strength.
Zhang Bubao really has no idea of keeping this chain secret. Let’s study it. It is estimated that it will not be applied in a short time.
Old Man Bi was satisfied after hearing Zhang Xiaobao’s words, and his heart was no longer cold. He carefully observed Zhang Xiaobao’s shoes, “Your shoes have nails in the front.”
“Yes, if there are nails in the back, it will be tiring
. It is very convenient for climbing the mountain. When I settle down, I will send you a pair for you to play.”
Ask along the way.
Ask about the local grain harvest, what is lacking in daily life, and health issues.
Every time the locals answered, Zhang Zhong kept it in his heart, and after he settled down, he let his son and daughter-in-law find a solution. He knew very well that he was not capable of that, and he would know by listening to the answers of the locals.
Every year, some millet is planted in a relatively flat place at the bottom of the mountain, and the hillside is opened to grow vegetables. If the season is good, then there will be a harvest. Some of them are kept and eaten by themselves, and some of them are carried out for salt.
The clothes are made of the hemp they grow by themselves. If the weather is not good and it rains for several days in a row, it will be washed away.
The family does not raise chickens, ducks, or pigs, and they all go to the mountains to fight.
When they come back, they eat the meat, and make the skin into clothes.
Or you can also go down the mountain to exchange for daily necessities. The other thing is that the road is too difficult to walk.
There are not so many boats, so there are only three boats in the whole place that can go down and come back. Some people who rely on the water for fishing can’t dare to go down, and they will overturn.
When you are sick, you will stand up first, or find some herbs on the mountain to eat. Few people go down to ask a doctor, and they have no money and no time.
There is no money at home, and I don’t buy anything, just change it.
If the family is in good condition, there can be more food and more fur, and it will be easier for such a family to marry a daughter-in-law and take a daughter-in-law.
All kinds of things made Zhang Zhong very helpless, especially the way of trade that the local people did not spend, but only exchanged, he felt that he could not change it.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan didn’t put their minds on the construction of Yizhou at all. When the battle was over, they would have to be transferred elsewhere. There was no time to consider people’s livelihood in the process of arranging logistics.
What’s more, the situation here can’t be solved in a short time, unlike Luzhou, which is gone and rebuilt.
It’s not like Shuzhou. It turns out that the basics are good. The transportation in this place is inconvenient, and the things produced are not valuable.
Especially the ideological question of the local people, are they really willing to go down the mountain and have more contact with people outside?
If they like and get used to the current life, can they be forced to accept another way?
The road passed when Zhang Zhong was thinking about doing practical things for the people, and Zhang Xiaobao was thinking about how to arrange logistics.
Fortunately, the yamen of the state capital in Yizhou is not too far from the party where the ship was disembarked. Perhaps the previous officials also considered the problem of travel.
The Fucheng of Yizhou is sandwiched between two mountains.
There is a small piece of plain terrain all around. A river flows not far from the city. The adobe city wall is only half a zhang high. It is said that it is Guocheng. The land is too large to include the plain.
Let’s say it’s the inner city, and even such a city wall may not be able to stop the beasts that jump better.
Standing on a high point, you can clearly see the situation in the city. The messy houses and trees exist together in the city. No matter how you look at it, there are no more than 4,000 people living in it.
The city has no moat, let alone a drawbridge, and even the city gates are made of thick wood.
Just like the fences of ordinary farmers’ homes, it was wide open, and there were no soldiers guarding the door.
There weren’t many pedestrians going in and out, but there were two groups of bare-ass little kids, holding sticks and bows in their hands, chattering and making a fuss, probably playing a game of swaying.
When the Zhang Wang family’s team slowly approached the city gate, the little boys were the first to react, and they stopped their movements one after another. They were a little scared, and a little curious. to the front house.
“Lord Prefect is here, go home quickly, tell your family to come out to greet the locals in the team, walk a few steps and come to the little children to instruct.
The little children don’t know what the prefect is, they only know that there is one that needs everyone to come out and see. Team. Looking at the beautiful house with good eyes and a little reluctance, they turned around, shouting and running back.
At this time, there was no prefect in Yizhou, there was only one Sima and a few small officials who were assigned.
Zhang Zhong took office very smoothly. There were only six yamen in the yamen, two old men with white heads, and one of the remaining people, one lame and two big boys who were not fifteen years old at first glance.
Only one looks good from the outside, but stutters when he speaks.
Zhang Zhong held a large rust-covered seal in his hand, and asked the person who was galloping next to a full stop: “Fang Sima, this is the state capital of Yizhou? How should my family members be accommodated? ?”
Fang Sima is very grateful to Zhang Zhong, who has arrived. Now that he has something to do, he finally doesn’t have to be busy himself. The place.
Hearing Zhang Zhong’s question, his whole body trembled and coughed for a while, and then he took a breath and replied, “What Zhang Shishi saw is all the state capital. The local people divide it by stockade, and usually things are resolved by themselves in the stockade. , There are very few people who come to the yamen to do business. Of course, the yamen can’t call the local people if there is something wrong.
If you build a river bank, you need to go up and discuss with each stopper, and you can send a few people to help when people have freed up space. The adults have a good number of family members. I demolished the city wall on the west side, and built a house for the adults. After the house is repaired, it is good to build a new city wall in the far place.
I see that there are many people in the family, so I don’t think I can use each stockade. People, oh, if the adults want to eat some mountain delicacies, send someone to the nearby stockade to talk about it, they will save face, and they can send some newly hunted beasts for the adults to taste.”
Zhang Zhong was speechless after listening to this. What do you mean?
Being a county magistrate in Sanshui County is also a hundred times better than being a governor in Yizhou. At least in Sanshui County, you can see the yamen running and riding at any time. Now the six people are ready to retire.
Putting himself into the position of the governor of Yizhou, and after tasting it carefully, Zhang Zhong reached out and patted Fang Sima’s shoulder, and said, “Sima has worked hard.”
Fang Sima’s eyes turned red when he was moved, and he finally came. A person who understands his own difficulties.
not easy.
Zhang Zhong sighed with emotion for a while, what needs to be done has to be done, at least the house needs to be repaired, otherwise where will he live?
Fortunately, my family was different from other officials. I brought a total of 11 people from the yamen out and ordered them to go down, and the people of Zhang Wang’s family were busy.
One by one tents were set up, and teams of people went out. Some were responsible for repairing the road leading to the river, and some went up the mountain to chop down trees. The members of Team Zero divided half of them, holding crossbows in their hands and pinning their waists once. The shotgun is short, go to the surrounding commanding heights to stay, and use the telescope to observe back and forth.
The family of Old Man Bi and Old Man Yao also came to help. Everyone understood that at this time, they could not count on others, and the people of Zhaizi would not listen to the propaganda.
The Zhang family’s cook also digs a pit and supports a pot to cook, and everything seems to be orderly.
This is not just the eleven people in the yamen.
Even the people who were watching the excitement were moved. They didn’t know what literacy meant. They only knew that the people brought by the new officials were not ordinary. They didn’t need special instructions at all.
The people in the stockade have to wait for others to arrange things before they can do it well. This large group of people has settled down under their noses. What is the new official doing?
War generals?
Everyone else is busy, but Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are idle, and the people from the two families do not need their command; they can quickly take over the strength of all positions in the capital of Luoyang.
It would be a shame to do this little thing wrong.
Originally, the two of them were going to draw a military map of this place, but they didn’t see a place to live.
I decided to wait for two days to talk about it, and there is no need to fight here.
All you have to do now is to have a good relationship with the locals.
Even if you don’t plan to stay here for too long, you might be able to use it later when organizing logistics.
Under the protection of more than a dozen guards, two people called seven little guys out of the house.
Ready to take them to the people, candy and salt are ready.
Liuer, Xiner, Weiwei, and Xiaoman also joined in. Li Xun wanted to join in the fun, but was arranged to rest immediately to adapt to the weather as soon as possible.
There was a doctor next to him, and as long as Li Xun seemed a little uncomfortable, he had to be treated immediately.
When they arrived at a new place, the little guys were a little scared, but when they saw their elder brothers and sisters beside them, they regained their former liveliness, holding hands and running behind them.
The little kids who were playing near the city gate earlier saw a group of people coming out of the team, including even smaller kids.
They were so wild that they also forgot their fear, and they also came up to them. They were very close. They looked at this group of people curiously, especially the clothes on Zhang Xiaobao and others, which made the little kids envious, even if they didn’t have any knowledge. They also know that the clothes are precious.
Xiaobei, this arduous task is entrusted to you. Zhang Xiaobao pulled his sister out and grabbed a handful of candy, which meant that Xiaobei would give it away.
Xiaobei has fallen in love with this activity since he gave the big man and the little man a candy.
In kindergarten, I often give things to others, and the popularity is the best.
Seeing the candy that her brother took out, she immediately knew how to do it. She put out her two little hands together, and trotted to the group of little children who were older than her. The little children were not afraid.
“Sugar, please candy”.
Xiaobei raised her arms
and the little kids are really not as afraid of things as children from other places. Seeing this little guy delivering something, even if you don’t understand what she is saying, you know that the food in her hand can be eaten, because over there Others who haven’t come are eating.
The person closest to Xiaobei took a piece, followed the example of Zhang Xiaobao, and recorded the outer skin, and put the contents into his mouth. When he tasted the sweetness, his eyes narrowed immediately, and the candy wrapper in his hand was also very cherished. Give the flattening carefully in the hand.
A look of happiness.
The other kids also came over to get candy.
One piece per person, when the sugar content in Xiaobei’s hand is almost the same, when there are two pieces left, no one will come to take it.
Beckham, who gave out something, was very happy.
I wanted to eat a piece when I saw other people eating, but after hesitating, I suppressed the idea. My brother and sister didn’t let me eat more. Mao Jing ate two pieces on the way I came just now, and I can eat two pieces today, so I have to stay at night.
When Xiaobei, who had finished giving the candy, turned around and was about to leave, the little boy who had eaten the sugar earlier grabbed Xiaobei. At the moment when Zhang Xiaobao was ready to respond at any time, the boy tethered an unknown tie around his neck. The necklace of something. I took it off and put it on Xiaobei’s neck. Then he smiled kindly to Xiaobei and let Xiaobei leave.
“What is this?
Just put it on my baby’s neck?
Talk, the rope is full of sludge.
How long has it been since you took a bath, this is, tooth?
Xiaobao, look, what animal’s teeth
are waiting for Xiaobei to come back happily, Wang Juan drew closer and carefully looked at the thing that was wrapped around Xiaobei’s neck, and complained in a low voice.
“It should be the wolf teeth. If it’s wrong, it’s the wolf teeth that the kid killed himself. He set a trap to kill. I don’t believe he can kill the wolf when he is facing the wolf head-on. Are you staring at us? It’s really taken down, and it is estimated that this friendship will end.
Go back and wash, Xiaobei will be our image ambassador in the future, hold her, others will see what is on her neck, want to come It will be more kind. Send the salt, half a catty, and they will naturally know what to do.”
Zhang and Bao looked at the ornament and greeted, and the guard next to him handed over a half catty sachet of salt. , With Xiaobei’s public relations, the little boy over there is not afraid of adults, and curiously took the small bag that could not be seen inside, opened it, squeezed out some with his hand and tasted it, his face She showed a more surprised expression than when she ate candy just now.
People who live by the sea, let alone half a catty of salt, even if they are given half a ton of salt, he will not feel how, especially in areas where drying salt is used, there is no shortage of salt.
The people here are different. There is well salt in Chengdu, but the good well salt is not for the local people to eat casually, but for selling money. Compared with sea salt, well salt can be done with the same follow-up process. The taste is also different, much better than sea salt, and the price is higher.
There is no salt well here in Yizhou. Where can I get so much salt to eat? The little ones have tasted the salt, and now the taste is much better than before. Anyone who is smart will know immediately that this small bag of salt wants to be replaced by fur. If so, at least five good sheepskins must be taken out.
The salt in exchange was nothing compared to the salt in their hands. The salt in their hands was white and fine, and there was no bitter taste in their mouths, and they didn’t know where they found it.
The little kids are not like adults. They also know that some things can’t be collected. Even if they understand that they can’t take other people’s things for nothing, they are reluctant to return them. The big deal is to go home and find other things to exchange for them.
The clever little boy said something to the others.
Holding the salt bag tightly to his chest, he ran to the house, and the other children didn’t dare to stay outside, because they were afraid that the salt in their hands would run out, so they ran home one after another.
Seeing their leaving figures, Zhang Xiaobao felt relieved.
“This saves a lot of trouble. In the future, let them do things and exchange materials without worrying about their slowness. The first step of the Long March is over.”
“Yes, during the Long March, it was in Tibet. In order to be able to communicate with local people
Our army has also thought of a lot of ways to build a good relationship with the people. It’s not easy, should we invite the locals to have a meal together later?”
Wang Juan took off the necklace from Xiaobei’s neck.
So dirty, go back and wash it a few more times.
“I don’t need this meal. They may not be able to eat. If you find a way to get them to work together, it will be easy to invite them to dinner if you have a contact and an excuse.”
Zhang Xiaobao really does not want to deal with ethnic minorities in this way, mainly because he is not clear about the other party’s Beliefs and rules, good intentions can also do wrong things. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com is like inviting Muslims to eat pork. No matter how good you do it, you are asking for trouble.
If there is one.
It is good to introduce the local customs first.
When Zhang Xiaobao returned to the team, the three old man Bi put down their clairvoyance, looked at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan with relief, and said, “Yes, well done, what is this called.”
“This is called child diplomacy. We have children’s diplomacy, children are always the constant theme of life, representing the continuation and hope of thinking.”
Zhang Xiaobao was in a good mood and explained.
New nouns were also used.
“What’s the matter with Madam’s diplomacy?” Old Man Bi asked with a shameless expression.
“I just send my daughter-in-law out to chat with someone else’s daughter-in-law. All the wives of noble families have this ability. When I’m tired, I don’t want to eat. I’ll just drink some soup later
. Really
