The salted fish couple is fleeing famine
Chapter 291 Inca Empire
Chapter 291 Inca Empire
The two granddaughters were also brought into the city by their mother, leaving only Xiaowei from Hu Sanniu's family to accompany her.
"I'm used to being busy, but I'm not used to being free this time!" Ms. Zhang was very happy to see her daughter and left her to eat at home.
"What has my dad been busy with lately?"
"I'm raising fish. This Earth Dragon also likes to eat fish. Your father didn't want me to raise chickens and ducks because their poop was too smelly. The Earth Dragon Pond was not idle, so he raised it to feed the fish!"
"This is a good idea. My dad has some ideas."
Father Hu is really talented. He used to fish with ground dragons, but now he feeds them with ground dragons.
I guess I saw the chickens and ducks eating the earthworms to grow faster, and the fish didn’t want to let them go.
"Is your second sister-in-law good at teaching?" My daughter does not shy away from relatives when looking for talents, but she is also afraid that her relatives are not capable enough.
"Excellent, mother, our family is really blessed with a treasure. My second sister-in-law's hairpin is so good at writing in small regular script. If my nieces can imitate her even 30%, they will make a profit!"
"Your second brother is as happy as a fool right now, and I don't even notice. God has blessed her. He has married a good wife, and she speaks and does things very grandly. I feel relieved about your second brother."
"Mom, you are very lucky. Where are you now? When Xiaoshan Xiaochuan and others get up, you will be the old prince!"
"Then I can live a few more years. It would be even better if I could see Xiao Liu and the others get married and have children!"
"Hey, Mom, let me tell you, your fifth grandson already has a daughter-in-law."
After having lunch at her parents' house, explaining everything about making doubanjiang to Aunt Li, and then visiting Sister Yuan and Ding Lele, Cuihua returned to the city.
Old Yuan Tou and Mr. Ma still live in the Yuan Mansion in Dali Village. There are still dozens of carpenters working on the puzzles, and the drawings for the new puzzles all depend on Cai Hanwen and a few others.
In the palace, the three companions were a little unhappy, and Gao Qianli and others were looking at the account books of recent months.
"In the past few months, our puzzle sales have been average!"
Cai Hanwen felt sad: "There are imitations everywhere. In Yuan Wenwu's words, it's piracy. Everyone is doing this in a rush. We can't sell it unless we lower the price!"
"You guys, don't get caught up in money. The Yuan family brothers went to sea with the Imperial College Master, but when others come back and play tricks, and learn better than you, then I will laugh at your jokes. !”
"Your Highness, it's hard for others to say, but this kid Qin Ke definitely doesn't know what's going on!"
This is also an injustice to Qin Ke!
Qin Ke and the others were held tightly by Master Yan on the ship. When they arrived at the place, they were tricked by Uncle Zhongqin into learning the Inca language.
There is no point in playing around, there is no end to learning.
Hei Wa learned from the experience of the natives on the island last time. It takes young people to learn the language.
Among the eight teenagers, Qin Ke and Yuan Wenwu were the thickest.
There is nothing embarrassing about learning these bird languages. People dare to imitate even the strangest pronunciations.
The two brainwashed each other: Anyway, these people in Daxia couldn't understand what they were talking about. Even if they said it wrong, what would they lose?
The locals wear eagle feather crowns on their heads and live in stone houses.
When they landed, they picked up spears and bows and arrows, and almost shot them into hedgehogs as soon as they came up.
"They look a lot like us, with black hair and yellow skin." Qin Ke's eyes were the sharpest.
"Then you two go and let them talk nicely for the sake of our kind!"
Hei Wa sent Qin Ke and Yuan Wenwu to lead the charge. Their faces were almost broken with laughter and they could no longer wave their hands before they were asked to put down their spears.
Compared with the naked natives of the island, this place is a country after all. The social system is much improved, but at most the material conditions are not that good.
Dialogue can only occur between countries. Huang Shangshu immediately submitted his credentials to the local governor.
Although they probably can't understand it, the other party should still be able to understand since this formation is still stamped with a jade seal.
A city by the sea will definitely not be their capital.
Uncle Zhongqin asked everyone to stay on the ship. Their navy could not go ashore until the two countries established diplomatic relations.
It would be bad if the other party thought they were here to fight.
They set foot on this country called the Inca Empire and stayed in contact with the locals for three days before the news reached the king of the Inca Empire.
Gao Huaiyu became very interested in the station where they delivered the news. It took at least five days to ride from the dock to the capital Manchester.
Three days later.
A delegation of twenty from Daxia, represented by Huang Shangshu, Zhongqinbo and Gao Zongbing, was summoned by the king.
When they set off, they saw the post roads extending in all directions.
The Inca Empire had a messenger system that could quickly deliver messages to all parts of the country.
The messengers used relay methods to deliver the messages and auspicious messages as quickly as possible from stop to stop until they reached their destination.
It is said that each of these messengers has to run 240 kilometers a day on post roads with various terrains, which is faster than a horse.
While they lamented the power of the Inca messengers, the governor and civilians were also very curious about the horses they were riding.
Along the way, the delegation was refreshed by the sights they saw. The country is full of mountains and river valleys.
They saw a large number of terraces built on top of each other on the hillside.
After their on-site observation and a few words from the translator, they learned that the Incas built terraces as follows:
At the foot of the mountain, three walls were first built with stones, one on the front and one on each side. The walls were slightly tilted inward to enhance their bearing capacity.
Then fill the wall with soil until it is level with the wall. After the first layer of terraces is built, the second and third layers with smaller plots of land will be built, layer by layer, until the top of the mountain.
The ground floor has the largest area, some can reach hundreds of acres, while the smallest ones above can only grow two or three rows of crops, making full use of every inch of land.
In conjunction with this, rocks were cut to build canals, and large-scale water canals and underground pipelines were built to divert the melting snow water from the top of the mountain for irrigation.
Diversion channels were erected between canyons, some of which were thousands of meters long. Such a large-scale terrace project would be impossible to complete without unified organizational mobilization.
With such a huge project, as far as they could see, the farming tools they saw were copper utensils and wooden sticks!
Five days later, the group finally arrived at Manchester, the capital of the Inca Empire.
Rather than saying it is a capital city, it is better to say that this is a castle complex built with huge stones.
The stones used in buildings weigh several tons or even hundreds of tons.
There is not even mortar between the stones, they just follow the shape of the stone, and the bite is so tight that even a blade cannot be inserted.
The entire castle complex is built on a mountain with an altitude estimated to be five or six hundred meters high. It is also the main defense project of Manchester City.
This building complex has three upper and lower walls, each wall is 18 meters high, and the outer wall is thousands of meters long.
