Villager of Daming

Chapter 1048: State-linked Bell Mouthguard

As the sun rises, we all drink gnocchi soup together. The team is so busy that we can’t even squeeze in the time to make noodles.

Since last night, everyone has been taking turns to rest and work.

In the next few days, we will try our best not to stop, and we will drive with lights on at night. There will be more than 1,100 miles of waterway.

The front section is downstream, and the back section is upstream when it reaches the Marco Polo River. There is a bridge over there. It was built by the Jin Dynasty in the Southern Song Dynasty and is called Marco Polo Bridge.

Once we reach Marco Polo Bridge, even if we reach Beipingxing Province, according to the current solar terms, it feels like it is too late to start farming.

There will be another six days of mild heat, so soybeans, sorghum, and rice cannot be planted. Wheat can only be planted in two months, which is winter wheat.

Zhu Di didn't say anything, but everyone knew he was anxious.

The team was busy making dry flour cakes, which have a long shelf life. They also used lights to lure fish and catch fish at night, and exchanged poultry eggs with the people, most of which were fresh.

Replace some of the good ones that have been stored for a long time. Make egg and green onion pancakes and save them for lunch.

First make part of the fresh eggs into spiced tea eggs. Make duck eggs and goose eggs in the same way. You can eat these for three days and then cook them after three days, otherwise the nitrite will be high.

The lump coal for steam engines needs to be replenished, and coke cannot be used as thermal coal.

I don’t have time to make anything else in the morning. The noodle soup is also very nutritious. It contains vegetables but no meat.

After everyone finished drinking the cucumber soup, they put the cucumber soup into the kettle, got on the boat, waved... let's go!
The officials who did not dare to stand at the top of the city but stood by the river to bid farewell watched the last ship disappear into the sky, and for a moment they didn't know what to do.

"Come in the evening and leave in the early morning, it will stay longer than the winter frost flowers written by Bai Juyi." Tong Fan always looked east.

"The flowers are not flowers, the mist is not mist. It comes in the middle of the night and goes at dawn. It comes like a spring dream for a long time, and goes like a morning cloud with nowhere to find." Tongzhi said the poem and shook his head.

"Write a booklet later and send a copy of the booklet left by your highnesses to Yingtian Mansion."

After dinner yesterday, the prefect Guo Mian called all the sergeants here to study the book together.

The content inside is just one main idea... linkage, using all the resources of all counties in Zhending Prefecture, and linking with Taiyuan Prefecture, Baoding Prefecture, and Hejian Prefecture.

There is a river that can go to the North Parallel Province, and you can also go directly to the sea. Going west is the export of resources and the import of merchants.

The input of resources depends on Taiyuan Prefecture, where there is salt. The key is that Taiyuan Prefecture can mobilize more steam engines and boats.

Then the resources of Xi'an Prefecture can be transported to Zhending Prefecture through Taiyuan Prefecture, and Taiyuan Prefecture is responsible for the counter-current transportation of Fenshui.

The layout was too big for local officials to operate, and six or seven state capitals were coordinated at once.

It is absolutely impossible not to send the booklet to Yingtian Mansion. The prefect of one prefecture wants to use the resources of other prefectures. Does Your Majesty know?

"Prefect, what should we do when Sergeant Weize Guandu goes out to hunt?"

Teruma thought of his responsibilities. He was responsible for auditing and cost accounting, and also supervising state officials. His Highness the King of Jin wanted to send troops...

The officials looked at him for a moment, but you have to perform your duties? Isn’t that for our Jingxing County?

Teruma understands what everyone means, but this is the job he does, if something happens...

'Ding bell~ding bell...' the sound of the bell came.

"Grandpa, look at Rongrong, Rongrong has an extra bracelet with three silver bells on it, look at it!"

A little girl of six or seven years old came over, holding a baby in her arms.

When Teruma saw his grandson being brought, he quickly stepped forward and took the little one from the girl's arms: "Rong'er always has the thumb of his left hand. Didn't the imperial doctor tell him to tie it up? He also prescribed medicine."

The girl nodded: "The doctor before also said that I would be tied up, and I would cry as soon as I was tied up, and my thumb would be almost bald, which is different from other places.

Grandpa, look, stop biting and bite the bell. There are words on the bell. I know the words "Heaven, Earth, and Man" written on the three bells.

What the beautiful sister gave me was the sister whose eyes seemed to be able to talk when she blinked.

ah! I remember, Sister Ling'er, the bell she gave me was hung on a silver bracelet. "Everyone looked at it together and found out that Zhaomo's grandson always bit his left thumb and cried when he was not allowed to bite it. The doctors from the pharmacy and Huimin Pharmacy all showed him.

Prescription medicine, the baby doesn't like to drink, the baby cries with his hands tied, which is very helpless.

There was an imperial doctor in the prince's team, and he adjusted the prescription, but he still allowed him to be tied up.

Now the little guy is biting the bell, drooling from the bite, his eyes are smiling, and he looks very happy.

"There is also a bulging purse. Is there any medicine in it?"

The judge next to him pointed to the rope hanging around the baby's neck, hanging a purse. There was no embroidered pattern, just a silk purse.

The little girl stepped up, reached out to take off her brother's purse, and opened it: "There is medicine, and there is a note, a note... His father's right hand was sick, and he broke the nail on his left hand with his teeth. The child left it, so that the ringing sound would start, and it would change over time. No need for other methods.”

After the little girl finished reading, she was at a loss. She didn't recognize the words but didn't understand the meaning.

"His father's right hand was indeed injured. He had been biting the nails on his left hand, and Rong'er bit him too.

Given three silver bells, if Rong'er wanted to use his finger and the bells would ring, he would definitely bite the bells.

The silver bell is non-toxic, so you won't be afraid if you bite it. This purse contains a bunch of spices, which smell pleasant, so you don't need to take sedative medicine. "

Teruma understood the meaning of the note and the function of the contents in the purse.

From now on, my precious grandson will not need to take medicine, let alone tie his hands.

"Oops!" Tongzhi suddenly said: "Um... the matter of Taiyuan Duwei's release from seclusion must not be reported!"

Uh-huh! Everyone looked at Teruma again.

Teruma glared: "How can there be any guards? They are Orions, they are all Orions. As we said last night, they are Orions!"

"Grandfather, what does Orion want to do?" the little girl interjected.

"Hunter is hunting, hold him tight! Take your brother back and don't fall." Teruma handed his grandson to his granddaughter.

"Oh! There is meat to eat, right? Let's go Rongrong."

The little girl picked up her brother, hugged him and left, jingling bells, jingling bells...

"Sure enough..." The promoter smiled as he listened to the ringtone.

"It's well-deserved! Even the doctors at the imperial hospital are not good enough. They are much worse." The governor said what the official did not say.

"It's a pity that I don't know when it will come out next time. Silver bracelets and silver bells are worth a lot of money, right?"

Magistrate Guo suddenly thought of the value of the thing on the baby's wrist, it was silver.

"Where is it? It's just one layer, and there's iron inside." Teruma shook his head, firmly refusing to admit it.

Others laughed, it is true that there is not much money. If the silver is heavy, the baby is tired, and you can't put a tael of silver on your wrist. It is estimated that the weight of one dollar is about one hundred Wen.

……

"Is Ling'er's bracelet useful?" Zhu Ping was also talking about this in the team going down the river.

"It's easy to use. I made it last night. I didn't expect it to be so simple before, but then... um..." Ling'er stopped in time.

"I wonder what happened to the crops at my fourth brother's place." Zhu Fan changed the subject and talked about Zhu Di's fiefdom.

The chief expressed relief: "When I returned from Helin with the Crown Prince and His Highness the King of Qin, I already pointed out Beiping Province. In the past two years, it has always been good there."

"We heard that they are making a large amount of enamel, but there is something different. The enamel is going to be sold to the barbarians. It should be shipped to the Shipping Department for sale this year, right? When we get here, my father will take care of it."

Zhu Di is not worried about planting problems, he is considering exporting.
