Great Tang Idyll - Vol 4 Chapter 3
Beckham, they are going to Fengzhou to see potatoes in a place, so they walk along the Yellow River.
From the capital, first east, turn a corner to the north, just the route that the Yellow River came. It is stronger than the direct desert over the mountains and then the desert.
It’s not that their team can’t go to such steep terrain, but it doesn’t make sense. It’s difficult to walk, slow, and ten days and a half is expected to meet people.
Walking along the Yellow River is different. The Yellow River is a mother river. People want to live by always relying on a source of water.
Beckham made up their minds to get in touch with people all the way, saying that catching a corrupt official has long been hopeless.
The current officials have become smarter, especially after the court did not give the land but replaced it with a simple sacred slogan, plus a nearly half-monthly inspection to make an unannounced visit, as well as an assessment of the generous reward given when leaving office. .
Officials have calculated the cost of crime and found that they have chosen to be honest when they have no great interests and can still have a good life after leaving Datang.
The Datang court paid a lot of money for the inspectors, which appeared to add an extra financial burden. The actual situation is that the state treasury has more income than before.
Officials who are qualified to participate in the early morning dynasty all understand what is going on. Local officials use hundreds of thousands of times to patrol the money through various means.
What’s more important is that once an official puts his mind on how to squander money, he must not invest more energy in the governance of the place. Once a habit or a potential rule is formed, the officialdom will be chaotic and the people will no longer support the court. Losing the people’s hearts, no matter how old you repair the tens of thousands of miles, no matter how tall you are, it is useless.
Therefore, they can only try to find people troubles from the ability of officials, but it is difficult to find which official secretly put money into their own pockets.
Walking along the Yellow River, you can kiss the people, stop at each place, take a look, and invite everyone to sing a song, dance, and eat a meal.
It is impossible to say what autumn is not committed. According to the people, don’t you commit it? Could it be that the people in our village are not waiting for you to see? Obviously, when I walked to the door of my house, I didn’t even say hello? Offended you? Do you still not treat us as Datang people?
Under these circumstances, in the course of more than a month, Beckham had nearly half a month to help the people repair the house. The nine little guys and Xu Yiyi each drank more than a pound of wine, which was overweight. .
The only thing that is fortunate is that I have already considered the problems that I will encounter on the road before I came out. I have prepared a lot of food and construction materials. The toolbox is also a set, and the knives of the kitchen knife, the head of the hoe, and so on. Used to exchange and give away, the corresponding wooden handle, I believe the people will make it by themselves.
The people along the way took out their own dried vegetables, bacon, ham and other hospitality. Beckham’s team used to cook without saying anything. No money was given, and the feelings were hurt. Only other extra things could be used to make up. .
Today, their team came to the village of Lulu, the town of Yinxiang, Yinzhou, next to the village of Xilu, near the Yellow River.
The population of the village is not large. The record of the census last year was 211 households and 1,305. This year, according to normal conditions, there will be a few more, more than ten, dozens of mouths. It is not certain, need See how many children are born and die several people.
Relatively speaking, the data is still accurate. There is no such thing as someone who has not entered the household registration. It involves welfare, especially children. You said that your family accidentally connected three twins, don’t be afraid, don’t punish, Give you money, you can be born too much, you have to reward, you don’t need to worry about whether your child has food or not. The court helps you raise it. If your family is still twins this year, you can even invite you to report. How did your family get it? Is there a secret recipe?
“The village of Xia Lu Village is surnamed Zhao. He is 42 years old this year. He succeeded him. He is the last villager. His grandfather is the villager who took office. His great ancestors…unknown, detailed details, not Xiang Xiang, no academic qualifications? Diploma? There is no admission record.”
When I arrived at the village of Lulu, Xiaoyuan took a piece of paper for introduction.
“I let you back, you read it? Who can’t read the words, you see me for you, he… there is no word on the paper?” Beckham grumbled dissatisfiedly, grabbed the paper and read it. It’s dumbfounded. Paper is paper, white paper, and the paper is blank. It’s much cleaner than the Tianzi.
“Xiaoyuan, you bully me, brother, you look at Xiaoyuan, he obviously took Zhang white paper and pretend.” Beckham was not happy, and pulled Xiaohai to complain.
Xiaohai is silent, he can’t be a shame when he protects his sister, right? No matter how good the logic is, I can’t find a reason for leaning towards my sister.
Others were equally silent, and Xu Yizhen felt that the atmosphere was a bit dignified. He just wanted to relax and sigh. Beckham smiled at Xiaoyuan with a smile and said: “Xiaoyuan, I know, you want to give me a surprise, right?”
“You can pull it down, surprise. You gave me a piece of information when you were eating last night. Let me see. I will sweep it twice. You pull me again and ask Sungong Temple to have several experimental sites here. What do you want me to do? I can only remember the pictures according to the method taught by my brother and sister. Now you ask me about the local situation. How can I concentrate on meusing pictures without taking a blank sheet of paper?”
Simple and real Xiaoyuan said what he thought.
Xiaobei whispered: “Xiaoyuan, you can’t find a daughter-in-law for a lifetime, you won’t marry a girl’s official. He’s not a good genius, hey! Yeah, rushing over a group of people, must be in the village of Lulu, Xiaoyuan, How do you describe Zhao Cunzheng in the information?”
“Not written, forty-two years old.” Xiaoyuan replied, seeing his expression, he knew that he didn’t care what Beckham said.
Next to Xu Yizhen found that he was once again nervous and extravagant. The atmosphere was awkward for the nine people. Looking at Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan, shaking his head, the heart has endless envy. He does not believe that Beckham will not marry Xiaoyuan, habit is a terrible, more terrible is Xiaoyuan’s character and talent.
Beckham, who has forgotten the things that have been forgotten, is staring at the crowd. Suddenly clap his hands and shouted happily: “Know it, it is Murakami who is surrounded by people, 42 years old, slightly older.”
Xiao Yuan did not interject his face very much: “That is his jealousy. There are seven in this year.”
“Do you know?” Beckham dissatisfied.
“Because he has a record, the top of the forehead is less, the two shoulders are over the shoulders, and the left is double-sided.” Xiao Yuan added.
“I really can’t afford the injury this day, Xiaoyuan, you will insist on saying everything next time, even if I interrupt you.” Xiaobei saw that the middle man was bald and supported him next to him. The person is estimated to be the current village.
Seeing that the person was walking closer, Beckham went to the guard next to him, and the guard nodded, meaning that the previous spy confirmed that there was no danger in the crowd.
Beckham immediately headed ‘蹬蹬蹬’ and ran over. The main target was the bald old man. As for the current village, I am sorry, you are more important than you. If you dare to take care of it, I will catch you to mine. Crime: not filial piety.
“Zhao Laobo, how come you come in person? It should be that we are going to see you, right, but your body is really good, and I have to get tired of running from the village to the village.” Bei looked up and happily greeted.
Not to mention the official position and origin of Beckham, only by the appearance and the expression of the present, and to win the feelings of all the villagers, to what extent, Beckham accidentally broke the warm bottle of others, not only will people not Saying that Beckham is doing something wrong and posing his face, he will say that he has long wanted to change a new one. He hasn’t made any room for it. By the way, another warm bottle is also kicked and let Beckham listen to the kind of fun.
The cute appearance, even if he did something wrong, could not be able to take any unhappiness. He would also worry that Xiaobei’s heart would not be able to go, and the ‘咱村’ in his speech would suddenly bring the distance closer.
The old village was holding his two hairs with both hands, and his eyes were almost invisible. He nodded and said: “The family is suffering, this is my useless son, Zhao is incompetent.”
“Wo, I mean.” The current village is Zhao Wu can correct his father’s words, the voice is slightly lower.
“You can? What can you do? No, when you first became a citizen, you made a mistake. It is nothing. Can you have half of the skills of your family?” The old village is not reluctant, and reprimanded.
Turning back to face Beckham and the other nine people who came together, he changed his face and looked like a relative. He said: “I heard that you went to Fengzhou, don’t worry, go home for two days, village. The whole is ready, nothing else, more fish, and the Yellow River is frozen. When the head is in front of the village, there are many fish in the village, which are raised in the warm pool.”
Beckham’s eyeballs turned twice quickly and nodded. “Eat, is there a scorpion? We love to eat the yellow river scorpion, with a hint of earthy smell. I went to India with my brother and sister and ate the fish in the stream. I am not used to it, I can’t taste the bandits, I feel less like my hometown.”
Xiaoyuan and others followed and nodded and agreed.
In fact, they really don’t want to eat, the fish caught by people before they freeze, waiting for the day to be cold and good to sell big prices. But if you don’t eat it, you don’t just have to eat it. You have to make a very urgent look. Otherwise, you will have a chance to see what you need in the village.
See the little guys promised, the people in the village are happy, turned back and walked back, Beckham grabbed the old village with a hand, jumping and talking while walking: “Zhao Bobo, the winter ice in the village How many people catch fish?”
“Not much, ice-cutting is a kind of effort, far from the big county. It’s not alive. It’s not worth the money. It’s like raising it in advance. If you don’t know that you are coming, go to the county town early, and rent a few rooms in the village. Housing, then sell again.” The old village is naturally returning.
Beckham nodded: “Oh, why not use the charcoal brazier to float on the water?”
“You have to go over the mountain. Can you say that the charcoal brazier will turn over?”
“Yes, Zhao Bobo, I suddenly think of a thing, there is a thermometer in the village?” Beckham asked.
“Yes, it is used by the chicken and ducklings. It is sent by your family. When I don’t hatch the chickens, I will take it over. When I hatch, I will go through it once a day. No one is allowed to lose it. The villagers know that. Although the thermometer is small, the technology is quite a lot, and the country around it dreams, but it can’t be made. I have to hold it, and I can’t take care of Xiao Bao and my heart.”
The old village is talking very seriously at this time, which is a guarantee.
Beckham bar 嗒 嗒 : : ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” ” The device, hand-cranked, hand-cranked, heats up when passing through the resistor, and takes two sets out to sell fish in the winter.”
Beckham said that when people send two sets, the size is not small, and it is as big as the bench that is usually used.
The old man received a careful slap in his hand and said: “The village is closed in the East and West Villages. We still have to protect ourselves from the thermometer. Someone will give the robbers the idea of giving us weakness. Will someone grab it next time? Who is going to grab, whoever wants to make it, so that those who want to make an idea will avoid it when they think of the next village. Like the thief, they will catch the death and let him know that it is wrong to steal.”
“Well, I support, fight to death, kill me.” Xiaobei sees people will be determined, and will not say anything to the law, some people may have loopholes, but in general Benefits outweigh the disadvantages
The old village is putting a few people in the village to the village, and most of the team stays in the riverside station, otherwise the village can not arrange.
There are also a few physically strong village men who protect the hand-cranked heaters. They don’t have any means of pushing them to accept them. They are very happy to accept the gift from Beckham. They know very well that the two big things in the bench are winter. No important tool to increase income.
“Zhao Bobo, don’t worry when things are bad, send me a telegram, someone will take the fastest speed to solve, try to catch big fish in winter, put the small fish, live by the river, give others and descendants Leave something, don’t catch it.”
Beckham followed the crowd to the village, and did not forget to tell the old village what to do.
“Understanding, understanding, grasping the big and letting go, catching the public and releasing the mother is the rule of hunting. It is also the rule for fishing. Especially when it comes with scorpions. If things are broken, it will always bother you. We will find a few people to send them to Beijing. Repair.” The old village is looking at the heater from time to time, happy to say.
Beckham shook his head: “Don’t bother me, I can’t see the telegram you sent, the name is ours, and the matter is handled by the following people, unless we need to clean up the officials to inform us, we have in every telegraph office. Special line, it is convenient to use, there are not tens of thousands of telegrams to us any day? All of us will be exhausted by us. Hey? Sugar people?”
Beckham, who was telling the truth, suddenly saw a person carrying a box on the body. This person also put a coal stove on his hand. It was like using it for heating. Then he carefully found that there were several rows of small holes in the wooden box.
Recall that Beckham remembered the people who were blowing sugar, so he tried to ask.
The old village is stopping and waving to the man: “Hey, come over, Beckham wants to eat sugary people.”
When the person came to the front, the old village was introducing to Beckham several people: “The old craftsmanship in the village, who used to squeeze the clay, and later the price of wheat was stable, and began to pinch the face. The price of sugar in the last three years has stabilized. Blowing sugar people.”
“Okay, well, the clay figurines and the noodles should continue to pinch. It’s a door craft. Don’t say anything, just say toys, there are also plastic shapes, help me blow a panda.” Beckham made a very difficult request, Panda Don’t care about body shape, but color.
“I want a koala.” Xiaoyuan thought of the same cute thing.
“When you listen to Xiaoyuan, Koala has only Luzhou and Chang’an, and most people have never seen it.” Xiaobei was afraid of the other side and helped solve the problem.
Beads stand out, open the picture folder, use the pencil to brush a few times on the paper to draw three pictures, one front, one side, one back, koala.
Her craftsmanship scared the honest scorpion and sincerely commented: “Great.”
“Of course, it’s amazing, I still use you to say, blow.” Murakami Zhao can finally find the opportunity to interject.
The scorpion is indeed honest, obedient, put down the stove, put a tin box on the grill, the inside is syrup, it looks good before.
The scorpion picked out a piece of syrup, and the hand licked the white powder in the bowl that was missing from the mouth, and began to process the syrup into a hollow shape like a large drop.
Xiaobei brows slightly wrinkled, the old village is busy explaining: “Starch, not talcum powder, you can eat.”
“Talcum powder can also be eaten, I am thinking about who will blow for a while.” Xiaobei did not care about why the other party did not wash their hands before.
“Whoever buys who is blowing, when he is too young, he will not be able to force it. It is difficult for the child’s adult to blow.” The blind man then spoke.
Beckham nodded, admitting that the sugar man was difficult to blow by the people who bought it, but this is an important place to test the craft. I have seen one in Yizhou before, and the success rate is very high. I don’t know the blind man. how about it.
When Beckham thought about it, the scorpion handed over the sugar and said, “Blow, you have to work hard…”
“Know, look at me.” Xiaobei did not use the other side to introduce how to make it strong, bulging his mouth and blowing, the scorpion began to pinch the shape, and when the breeze snorted, the panda had already formed.
The nephew was very satisfied and smiled at Beckham and kindly.
“Beckham is really amazing.” Zhao Wu can follow the praise.
Xiaobei modest: “Return, this time pay attention to a match, as the saying goes, not afraid of God’s opponents, afraid of pig-like teammates.”
“Who said this slang?” Zhao Wu can ask for knowledge ** strong.
“My brother.” Xiaobei answered.
“It makes sense.” Zhao Wu can follow up immediately.
At this moment, the scorpion brushed the color of the panda. He didn’t know whether he had a brush or a small brush on his hand. He brushed the black powder and brushed it on the panda, and then repaired the starch.
“What is black?” Beckham was worried and asked.
“Sugar.” The old village is giving the answer.
Beckham came back with peace of mind, didn’t ask why the sugar would be black, and didn’t ask the black sugar bitterness. She knew that the process and the heat control were absolutely no problem. My brother could make the sugar colorful and black. The easiest way is black dates, purple is ripe mulberry, sugar can be used to show the sugar from white, yellow, golden, red, black.
Of course, this requires a very deep foundation. The theoretical existence does not mean that all people can do it.
A panda is finished in the hands of the scorpion, and the scorpion takes a look at the painting of the beads and recreates the hollow ‘water’ drops.
The people around did not show any surprise. Datang’s craftsmen looked at the pictures and did the most basic professional accomplishment. They belonged to the entry level, and even some masters asked the apprentices to do the same.
Zhao Wu can watch Xiaobei playing with the pandas and thinking about it. “From the perspective of the transformation of the scorpion’s craft, it can reflect the economic development. The clay figurines, the noodles, the sugar people, their excessive, the court. The policy is in the first place, and the end of the economic increase is the absence of sugar people, because sugar is no longer a necessity.”
“You are a little bitch, saying that you are incompetent, you still don’t recognize it.” The old village is beginning to teach his son, the 42-year-old son of a small sister.
“At the end of economic development, people are pursuing more than just sugar, but the craft of making sugar. When the sugar is not worth the money, the craft is valuable, Beckham, I am right?”
“Zhao Bobo is so powerful, my brother and my sister said that when the glitz is blinking, people will cherish the simplicity of the heart. In fact, I just want to say that I have to make a few models, put the sugar in it, blow it directly into the inside, and later Think about it, how does it reflect the craftsmanship? The public’s things are low production costs, fast processing speed, easy to use, but not worth the money.”
Xiaobei vacated his hand and praised his thumbs.
“Uh huh!” The old village was coughing and used his light to lick his son.
“Isn’t it better to say that the more beautiful things are?” Zhao Wu could not be convinced.
Xiaobei patted the clothes on his body and said, “Who can position the beautiful? Look at my clothes, the lining and the outside are pure cotton, and the inside is covered with duck down, clean, simple, generous and comfortable. Is this not another? What kind of beauty is it? You can’t make all kinds of flowers on your clothes when I am at home?
Look at my head again, two horns, other hair draped, tied with a pale yellow head rope, not good? Is it better than wearing a head of various gold and glowing stones? Is there no pearl in my family? Qingshan, green water, blue sky, is it purely beautiful? ”
Zhao Wu could carefully look at Beckham and had to nod and admit: “It is a very simple dress, why is it that people feel luxurious?”
“Because it is pure enough, monotony does not mean boring, a bowl of white rice with a strong rice scent is better than egg fried rice. The dry noodles made with the noodles are more like snacks than cakes. I always think The wild vegetable soup is better than the soup, the kind of faint earthy smell has a different fragrance. Cherish it, the yellow river sediment is not necessarily clean, because it is filtered by the mud, I give you distilled water every day, you can stand it. ?”
This is what Xiaoyuan said, and it seems to make sense. It makes people feel comfortable.
It’s his turn to blow, a koala pinched out, and then several other children, including Xu Yizhen, there is a beggar, a pig, she said she is a pig, tomorrow’s birthday, to sugar people Plug in the cake.
The scorpion is still serious about making it. He can’t look down on it. He has to look at who is there. The two singers of Sanshui Zhang Wang are the chess and calligraphy, the poetry and poetry ensemble, the hall, the kitchen, and the The battlefield facing the enemy.
Ordinary people don’t expect to find such a wife, saying that there are hundreds of thousands of people in the family, sorry, don’t talk about money, don’t count the month, just say the season’s clothes and gouache, one month is more than two hundred, is the purchase The price of own home production is not so high.
The most important thing is to see the knowledge. You said that if you drink a cup of water or a cup in your home, you have to consider what is the time of the people in the family. Is the glass kind or the dragon kind? I accidentally fell to the ground, and packed up for a set. No one spoke to her. I have to say that there are many things that must be the housekeeper. Ask her why she is not careful. What if she cuts herself? Does your family dare to say that she fell a few?
Just like Beckham’s mother, Zhang Wangshi and Wang Qiaoer, what do you care about her? She lives with her husband in Zhuangzi. Do you think that getting something worthy can make her envy you? She cares very simple, that is, her family, her husband is trying hard to study, her father-in-law and her sister-in-law, and her children are sensible and prosperous. You want to take Hu Hang, Su embroidery, and Jin Jin to make her rude. It is purely a dream.
Zhang Wang’s sister-in-law is the same as the man’s servant. He can only find a partner inside, and he can’t go out because he can’t find a suitable one. And their status is only low when they are at home in the family, but when they go out alone, they are not low at all. When people meet quarrels and persuade them to listen, they not only know who their main family is, but also understand their skills. What they say is even more convincing than the officials of Tuen Mun, and they are impartial and impartial.
So no one has treated them really. For example, if you want a pig now, is it overkill? Not overdoing, Beckham did not say anything, respect and love are in the heart, not the surface, the key moments can stand up and block the knife for Beckham, she does not fall, Beckham they will be fine, always than usual Keep the system and run strong when you are in danger.
“Yeah, I almost forgot, Xiaoxiao sister celebrates tomorrow, October 20 is born, is a child…” Xiaobei guessed.
“When is it? It is ugly for three moments, the five elements are lacking wood. After the night, I will find a place with more forests to celebrate Xiaosheng’s sister, but I can’t take the back of the mountain, the sun is too bad, and the sun is not welcome. Have a good selection.” Xiaoyuan immediately took the words, corrected it, and the memory is strong, it is so comfortable.
“Thank you, Bei Xiao Niangzi and Xiaogongzi still remember the slaves.” Xiao Xiaozhen was really moved, saying that the main family remembers the birthday of the next person, is there? Have! But it’s just one or two, and it’s still very reusable.
For example, Gao Lishi’s birthday, Li Longji knows, and remembers it is very strong, the emperor and the princess also remember, but before Li Longji will not help to celebrate, only a holiday, just find a reason to put a day off.
So high-powered people are already very happy, otherwise he will not be so loyal, and because of the loyalty of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Hao, even let Zhang Xiaobao recognize the righteous father. One person is loyal to him to this extent, no one is more willing to pick other problems, even if he is still a curse.
Both Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Hao have been betrayed. Otherwise, the information of the two people will not be revealed. The pain is truly unforgettable.
And Wang Hao can’t grasp the information that Zhang Xiaobao once went to jail to study the ability to change his identity. Zhang Xiaobao could not do the ability to get rid of the things that Wang Hao mastered at the last moment, so that there is no difference between them. The cows are not cattle, the betrayal and loyalty are really cyclical, and they are pervasive. Who is in heaven? Who is in hell?
Therefore, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Hao like Gao Lishi, because he does not betray, but always feel that Li Longji gives too little to Gao Lishi, do you not come out on birthdays? Ok, you don’t come out and we are out. So Li Longji had to follow suit.
In recent years, Gao Lishi’s birthday has been four people. He, Li Longji, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Hao, Zhang Xiaobao will make a small cake, followed by more than 20 dishes, prepared dishes, cooking with four stoves, very A short time is a table dish.
Gao Lux is a special case. Even if the Prince wants to call him a grand prince, Zhang Wang and his two are very many people. I don’t think that everyone who follows the team will be remembered.
Xiaoyan knows these things, and what touches her is not Xiaoyuan’s memory, but Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan are willing to remember. She believes that the entire team of more than 20,000 people, Xiaogongzi and Xiaonianzi can remember each person’s birthday, because the year is only three hundred and fifty days, remember the number of days.
Xiao Xiao knows the ability of Xiaoyuan Xiaozi, but the people in the village of Lulu do not know. Hearing that Xiaobei and Xiaoyuan directly said a happy birthday, his shock was beyond words.
The little girl who got the birthday present happily ran away. Beckham began to ask the old village about the situation in the village.
The old village is answering, the village is helping the son to supplement, and the villagers insert a mouth from time to time, each person lied and deceived, and even revealed that the village deliberately underreported the seventy-seven-dollar rent money this year.
“This…is that we are selfish, obviously harvested, but underreported, just to save a portion of the money for the public in the village.”
The old village is talking, and when he faces Beckham, he actually feels shy, and he really can’t lie under the watery and pure eyes of Biebei.
The people in the village are very nervous, and they report that the benefits of the court, the medical treatment, raising children, supporting the elderly, education, etc. do not cost money. .
Beckham nodded naturally and said: “Less is less. In fact, the Great Tang Dynasty does not care that you underreport the food. Brother and sister cherish the food. We also don’t waste food. It is not that the current Tang Dynasty is short of food. It is not easy to control, we must seek the balance. Of course, the more important thing is that our family does not have the habit of throwing away a lot of staple food.”
“No shortage? No one is hungry?” The old village is not convinced.
Beckham didn’t believe it. He said: “Some people don’t have enough food, but it’s not a problem with food. They live too remotely. The normal official roads don’t pass. They don’t pay rent, let alone don’t pay for it. They themselves. Planting some food in the mountains, catching up with the year is not good, a big water or a drought, it is over.
Usually have to wear clothes, eat salt, buy vegetarian oil, plant a few acres of food is not enough for daily use. It is even harder to have children in school to go to school. I can’t see one face a month. Because I live on campus, I will go for two days and come back for two days. ”
The villagers are deeply convinced that, as Xiaobei said, the remote places, especially the mountains, are really poor and poor enough to make people unable to look at them.
“Beckham, the official road repair is not going to work?” A villager came up with an idea.
“Do not repair, resolutely do not repair, not cost-effective, more than 30 miles of mountain roads, a total of six households, I have repaired the road? The money to repair that road, if there is money, only one year of interest is enough for them After a lifetime, the court will be stupid to what extent will it be repaired?”
Beckham thought about repairing more than 30 miles of mountain roads for the useless effort, and suddenly felt chilling.
When the people in the village heard it, they felt that it was impossible to build a road. It didn’t make sense. It was better to let the people on the mountain move down. In the past, there were various reasons to avoid the world, war, taxation, and so on. It is not a reason to take this matter for now.
Because the imperial court can’t watch you starve to death after you move down, it will temporarily provide you with some money and places to live, and work to help you find it. If you can’t teach you for a few months.
If you can still starve to death, how much do you have to be lazy? Is it too hard for you to go to the door to receive the people? As long as you go, there is no problem. If you are old, you will not be able to move. There is a pension department responsible. The disabled department is responsible for the disability. If you are young, you will go to school quickly. You will not eat or wear it. Under such conditions, you are hungry. Die, that!
It’s not a different sentiment, you really can’t find a reason to sympathize with you.
“Beckham, you give me the old man, how much food does the Tang Dynasty have?” The old village cares about the national affairs.
Xiaobei shook his head: “I really don’t know, I have never given us this data. You won’t want me to send a message to my brother and sister.”
“No need to use.” The old village is busy saying.
Beckham thought about it again and added an explanation: “There is a lot of food in the Tang Dynasty. In the past, the place in the north, the brother and sister called the sudden after the sudden, and now it belongs to the Tang Dynasty. There are many cattle, sheep and horses on the grassland. Can also grow corn and potatoes.
There is also the former northern part of Hebei Road, which is also directly under the jurisdiction of Datang. Unlike the first few years, it was nominally Datang, but it never paid rent. Now, my brother and sister are in charge, and there are many advanced farming equipment in use. I am afraid that the food market in other places will not be allowed to sell.
As long as the logistics are normal, you are not hungry, you should not waste food if you are hungry. If you save the food, you can let the merchants take things overseas to change things. You can’t always use force to grab them, right? ”
“What’s the change?” Zhao Wu can be a modest and eager to learn, compared to his small two-round Xiaobei asked.
Looking at Xiaobei, he is actually very contradictory. It is obviously a child. He has to show respect. He is obviously a child. He knows more things than himself. He has been fighting in his heart. He is contemptuous of Xiaobei’s age and is in her position. The importance of location is really tormenting people.
Beckham can feel that many people are ignorant of her age, but she doesn’t care. It is like other people say that she relies on the power of the family. She admits that she really depends on her family. Otherwise, who cares about her? Admitted to recognition, she will not give up using the power of the family.
According to her thoughts, she took advantage of it, and she did not rely on the power of her family to grab the sugar of other children. She did not buy strong sales, but helped many people.
Therefore, Xiaobei can understand Zhao Wu Neng’s mind and answer: “Change to a variety of ore, my brother and sister will generally draw a rough range, especially the brother, seems to know the distribution of all kinds of overseas resources. My sister once said, brother So remember a lot of resources, the original purpose is not pure, you can use the secondary development of resources, three reasons for deceiving, but I feel that nothing is wrong, deceiving people overseas to deceive, right? ”
Regarding Beckham’s statement, Zhao Wu was deeply impressed. At this time, he no longer looked down on his own age, even if it was clear that Xiaobao and Yu were twenty years younger than themselves.
“Cheat is good, it should be deceived. It is better than playing directly. People who are deceived should thank Xiaojia Xiaobao. We are even more grateful to Xiaobao. Xiaobao did not use the tricks on us. The price of salt and plain oil has been very high. Low is the credit of Xiao Bao.”
The old village is holding a supportive attitude, and the people in the surrounding villages show the expression of empathy.
They know how dark the businessman’s heart is, how big the courage is, but no matter how the businessman thinks, the price of salt, vegetarian oil, rice, wheat, and millet has been maintained in a very stable situation, as well as coarse hemp and fine linen, except for salt. In addition, the price increase of other things is always twice as slow as the increase in income.
As for the salt, the price of salt has been fixed for three years. It does not fall, and it costs less than two pounds. It is much cheaper than the salt bought a dozen years ago. No businessman dares to touch the price of it. Whoever touches whoever dies will never return. That kind of.
This is definitely the credit of Xiaobao. When the caravan came over, they said that they are not afraid of the policy of the court. There are loopholes in the policy. They are afraid of touching the bottom line of Xiaobao, because Xiaobao and they follow the same rules of the game. It’s a river. And when it comes to the means of rivers and lakes, it must be a **** hurricane.
The merchants did not dare to fight with Xiaobao. Therefore, the salt price has not been the court’s decree, but it has never changed. It is only because Xiaobao said that the necessities of survival are not allowed to rise and fall.
So the price of these things is really stable, the merchants will also be shipped to sell, there is still profit, it can be seen how bad the former merchants, clearly profitable, actually have to toss the price.
Thinking of Xiaobao’s affairs, some villagers uttered a question: “Is there a name for Xiaobo, Xiaobao and Yi’s children?”
“There is a nickname, Ming Ming, the name has not yet started, it will be a cruel battle. When we come out, we grow up a little, chubby can be fun. Oh, I remember something, you secretly dig coal Be careful when you are, and if you use it yourself, you can’t sell it.”
When Beckham talked about his face with a happy face, he turned to the front and talked about stealing coal.
The villagers were shocked. Zhao Wu could stammer and ask: “You, you know, you know?”
“I know, my brother and my sister said that no matter how much coal is shipped from outside, there is still a place where there is open coal in Datang. Some people still dig their own, because the labor cost of digging a basket of coal is very low, and coal is zero cost, how is it possible? Do not dig out for your own use?
My brother and sister also said that the place with open coal is just like the children in your own home. When you go hungry and go to the kitchen to secretly take a hoe, can you still not let the family? As long as the child did not throw the **** or sell it, so secretly dig the coal for personal use, and dig for a thousand years can not be finished.
I said to you, oh, you have coal in your area, you can use it yourself, you are not allowed to open the factory, you can’t sell the money. Once you are going to use coal as the main income, the coal at the door of the house is dug, how about the children? do? ”
When she said this, Beckham’s expression became serious. Obviously she did not represent herself.
“Xiaobao and Yirenyiyi.” The old village was moved to say a word, and vowed to God, only dug himself, do not give people, do not sell.
Beckham waved his hand: “Don’t say this troublesome thing, eat fish in the village, we bring you gifts, books, cages, fish, books, fish in the Yellow River, not as much as yourself. When we raised it, we harvested it. We checked the information before you came. You have a lot of big otters here. The domestic sewage is drained. It has a high nutrient content. It just raises fish. Every year, you can pick up the mud. Used in the fields.”
“And, there is that…” Xiaoyuan opened his mouth to say something.
“Yes, there are whale meat in the sea, pickled, a 20-pound, then you put the coal on us, want that kind of good coal, not coal face, we can not hit the coal billet, time is not enough. ”
Beckham took the call.
“Also, there are…”
“Yes, there are…”
“Beibei, do you want me to say it once?” Xiaoyuan was very dissatisfied.
“You said, I will allow you to say it, let’s talk.” Xiaobei promised to come down.
Xiao Yuan’s good mood was gone: “It feels like giving you alms.”
“Do you mean not to say? Don’t give alms? Then I said.”
“Yes, there is moldy dried vegetables, a family of 30 pounds, this side does not produce that dish, the method of telling you, you can also ponder how to cook.” Xiaoyuan finally passed a addiction to send things.
The people in the village are more happy, they know that the little guys are ready to go all the way to go, otherwise they will come all the way to eat, that is the real labor and wealth.
Zhao Wu was able to hear so many things, I am embarrassed: “Let you pay for it.”
“No, it’s just the money that was transported. The things didn’t cost money. The merchants who sold the mold and dried vegetables looked for us. Let us help them sell them. You have eaten it now. After ten days, it is estimated that the county will sell it. ”
Xiaobei smiled and explained that things were as she said. When she heard that she was going out, some businessmen immediately found something to send, and let her help sell it to others, especially the merchants in the south. There was a difference between the North and the South. There was no personal help. With propaganda, it is impossible for both parties to like the food of the other party.
Normally, let Xiaobei help them to promote, they have to give them money, and change the individual to send, the effect is absolutely no better for them, but Beckham did not make the money, when it was a friendship to help.
The people in the village are very happy, not only seeing them, but also getting the technology and things.
The fish that everyone eats together, of course, there is no big force, the fish in the village is not enough, only a small number of people have eaten.
When the next day was dawn, the team bid farewell to Xiaolu Village and proceeded.
After a few more days of walking, when it was time to go to Yinzhou, it began to snow.
For the time being, there was no strong wind and no whistling, and no winter squad was heard.
Snow, it is pure underground snow, the sky is black, even at noon, a large group of snow falls, similar to cotton.
The little guys looked up and the black spots gradually became bigger. They reached out and saw that the snow was white. The big snow group was composed of small snowflakes. If you look closely, you can see that most of the small snowflakes are six. Pets, as for not, it is because they are broken when they stick together.
When the snowballs in the hands turned into water, Beckham blinked and said: “It’s a big snow, it’s going to be troublesome.”
