Great Tang Idyll - Chapter 758

[Chapter 383 Construction of the Artificial Dead Sea Begins]

Under the deliberate arrangement of Long Gong Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

(www novels MM reading network, the fastest text update wonderful novels!)(.) The distance between the local people of Wangangxing published from Qianzhong Road is gradually increasing, although it is not enough to actively work hard for the local people To a certain extent, it can be considered that it is no longer excluded from doing construction work in front of the soldiers.

Next, Zhang Xiaobao began to buy a large amount of pottery from Changning County. After all, the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce did not cooperate with the person sent by Zhang Xiaobao. One was that Zhang Xiaobao was always unreliable, and the other was the request mentioned by the person who sent it. As long as the contract is signed, the pottery from the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce will not be allowed to sell to the northern part of Hebei Province.

If you want to sell, you need to contact the Zhang and Wang family, let the Zhang and Wang family sell it, and at the same time be responsible for the transportation. If you are not responsible for the transportation, you have to give up part of the profit.

The people from the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce came from Silla, and in the northern part of Hebei Province, except for the Khitans, they were from Silla. How could they hand over the right to sell goods in their hometown.

The people sent by Zhang Xiaobao went to other people who fired pottery to sign the contract. As mentioned by the Qianshi Chamber of Commerce, the people who were found later did not have as much thought, and the northern part of Hebei Province was still far away for them. It was too far away, and they all signed the contract happily and sent the first batch of goods to the river, waiting for the ship from Jilizhou to take it away.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan did not take too long to receive a batch of pottery. They went through the waterway and packed them. Even so, one-fifth of the pottery was damaged when they got there.

The first batch of pottery, Zhang Xiaobao did not give to the people of Jili Prefecture, not enough, there were too many people, the first batch of pottery was only 50,000 pieces that could be used. Just one set.

Zhang Xiaobao used 50,000 pieces of pottery to give gifts to powerful people in the surrounding and further north. The family gave a few sets, and used the remaining pottery to buy the coastal land next to Jili Prefecture.

Just buy a beach, and do not restrict the local people from going to sea to slag.

The restrictions are on trade ships from elsewhere.

Any cargo ship that wants to dock must be approved by the state of Jili.

The reason that such a place can be obtained is because there are very few ships in the trade, and anyone who has a ship would not want to go to the northern part of Hebei Province.

Coming from poor places, the usual small trade is done by land, and people who are willing to take risks come to trade with people here.

What Zhang Xiaobao has to do now is to wait. After the people who have received the pottery show off a lot to others, more people are willing to go to Jili Prefecture to buy enough, and they are also waiting for the people sent to the north to explain the specific situation in Mohe. pass back.

Don’t look at the distance to Mohe is not comparable to the distance from Jilizhou to Jiannan Road, the road is very difficult to walk, you need to find a place to replenish food and water, and you need to fight with wild animals. The further north you go, the more you get to

the Mohe side, it is estimated that it will be winter soon.

In addition to exercising himself, Zhang Xiaobao, who seemed very leisurely for a while, spent more energy on his younger brothers and sisters, teaching them, and letting Wang Juan take care of all military affairs.

Wang Juan really asked people to build a bunch of large swimming pools at the seaside, and poured the saturated seawater in the salt fields into it, so that the two camps who practiced in turn learned to swim. In fact, many people can swim, but they are not standardized. .

One of Wang Juan’s goals is to let people exercise by swimming. Different swimming postures can exercise muscles in different places and improve lung capacity. More importantly, they will travel from here to North America in the future.

She and Zhang Xiaobao discussed it. Now it is too hard to go to North America from the land. It is not only cold in Russia, but also the road is not easy to walk. It is better to walk along the seaside.

Bypassing Silla, you can move forward, if you encounter sea ice.

Let Zhang Hu train dogs a lot and use them to pull the sledge.

This dog must be found in a cold place. The hotter the dog is, the more unusable it is. Who knows how much effort it will take to make the dog work in the snow.

The swimming training program was determined in this way, not only now, but also in the future, even in winter. This will increase the resistance of the 10,000 people who come from the south to the cold and prepare for the next year.

Changning, a pottery supplier, is also working hard now. The next batch of goods requested by Jilizhou is too much.

Li Li has been living a very comfortable life recently. The yamen has collected a lot of taxes, and all welfare schemes have been implemented.

The plan in front of Li Li today is to ask him to find a place with clear roads in Changning County to dig a hole, preferably a deep hole where there is clay, and then prepare to lead a river to form a small hole in the big hole. artificial lake.

He didn’t know why he did this, but what Zhang Xiaobao said, he was going to follow the arrangement and find the little bug to ponder the meaning of digging a pit and building a lake together.

“Sir, I can’t guess. Could it be to build an artificial lake and put a cruise ship on it?” Every time Xiaochong faced Zhang Xiaobao’s plan, he seemed very helpless. He didn’t expect to go beyond it. Just fine.

“Never mind, just dig it first.” Li Li thought that the usually very smart little bug could guess a little bit. Seeing that the little bug looked unsure, he was going to do it first.

Selecting a good place on the map is convenient for people to dig, pay more wages, and have good food. Now the labor force in the county is hard to find, and the people have things to do, so don’t expect to spend a few cents in wages. Let someone come over for a day.

People in the surrounding counties have also moved to Changning County, and the number of migrants still cannot meet Changning’s labor needs.

While Li Li was instructing the digging of the pit, a lot of small cargo ships came from the river that brought the water. One by one, they transported the goods from the big ships on the big river to Changning. The sacks were not big, but they were very heavy. , the person who can usually carry two hundred kilograms of grain has reached the limit of carrying a bag of goods.

“Master Li, the river on your side is really too small. You have to find a way to expand it. Otherwise, things will be delayed.” Li said hello.

Li Li heard about the things that Ji Lizhou sent over, so she ran to the river to meet her, listened to Xu Si’s words, nodded earnestly, and asked, “What?”

“Salt, the worst kind of salt.” Xu Si said, motioning for a transporter to put down the bag, took out a knife, and cut open the bag directly. Large black and yellow salt grains were scattered inside.

When Li Li saw this, her brows furrowed. The salt was too bad. At first glance, she knew that it had not been handled properly. She bent over to pick up one, put it in her mouth and chewed it hard, and spit it out again. , There is still sand in it, bitter and astringent.

He spit a few more saliva, “This is what Zhang Xiaobao sent to the people in the county to eat?”

“No, it was used to pour it into the lake, and then we will know that one is that Mr. Li bought the salt at a cheap price. One is that my little son used salt to buy shares.” Xu Si explained.

These two days are not in good condition, and there are few more. First of all, I am sorry. Give me a few days. After I adjust my physical and mental state, I can do more. Thank you for your understanding and support.
