Villager of Daming

Chapter 444 The terrain still looks like the county annals

Take out the map, unfold it, and Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi look at it together.

Sure enough, this location is the closest to the two rivers, regardless of whether it is south or north, only this location is the most suitable for a market.

People choose by themselves, whether the location is good or not, they have summed up the answer over the years.

Longkang Town is 75 miles away from Huaiyuan County. After the prince's team transported a large amount of things by boat, the number of livestock increased, and they were advancing semi-lightly.

They all walked for half a day. Other people, especially those from Xifeishui, how could they run downstream to Huaiyuan County, and then return to Huaiyuan County to trade?

Shunliu is coming soon, how about coming back?Row the boat slowly?Plus the turning distance, more than 80 miles!

The people are not stupid, they just found this place, so they can't think of a market.

Zhu Biao looked at the head of the village: "If you are marching and fighting, and the head of the army is there, how much will the general save?"

"His Royal Highness is admirable, this is nothing, someone can deduce the current general situation of mountains, rivers and rivers from the topography and rivers described in the geography of each place.

For example, there is a mountain in the Tang Dynasty, which is 220 feet high, with a river passing by in the north, and the river is [-] feet wide.

At the time of Song Renzong, the mountain was 610 feet high, and the river in the north turned around, and the river was [-] feet wide.

Going to Yuan Mingzong, the same mountain is 620 feet high, and the river in the north is concave in the south, and the river is 260 feet wide.

In the geography of the past dynasties, the same mountain and the same river have different expressions, and they just change.

Through the changes, even if you don't see it with your own eyes, you can guess the general situation. "

The head of the village is talking about Hanhan, and Hanhan has this ability.

In fact, what he doesn't know is that Hanhan not only knows about the previous dynasty, but also knows about the latter.

As for why he didn't draw it... that would exhaust him, and he could only recall the local situation after encountering a certain place.

The key is that sometimes the geography is lost with the damage of the war, which is the saddest thing.

Any civilized dynasty will try to preserve the books inherited from the previous dynasty, especially geographical records.

When Zhu Wentian said that the Yuan Dynasty was barbaric, others said that the Qing Dynasty was barbaric, but no matter what, he tried his best to preserve geographical records and write a history of dating.

The real barbarism is to destroy the past inheritance of a civilization, and kill all those who can speak and read that civilization.

The civilization of the Maya was broken, the civilization of Tianzhu was broken, and the civilization of the Nile River...

"Using geography to calculate?" Zhu Biao didn't know what the end of history would be like. He was numb and frightened at the moment.

He knew who the Li Zhang was talking about, and he needed to memorize Geographical Records, and he had to look for laws from it.

This... Wei Su can't do it, and Zeng Lu can't do it either, the two of them are already strong enough.

"I guess it's because I have a better memory!" Li Chang said indifferently.

"What the chief said is true, the memory is better." Zhu Biao chose to nod in agreement, okay, there is nothing wrong with it.

After the team moved forward for a while, he was in the market.

This is a town, but there is no place to grow rice and other crops, only vegetables.

"Hey? Chief!" Zhu Biao turned his head when he saw the situation.

"The terrain was originally low, and it was in the middle of two rivers, so it was always washed away.

Just like around Shijiu Lake before, people are not willing to grow food.

Look, Your Highness, they grow grass, which can be used to feed livestock, and soybeans are grown on high places.

If the soybeans are rewarded by God, they can harvest beans. If they don’t reward them, they will cut the bean seedlings and feed them to the livestock.

As for vegetables such as cucumbers, eggplants, lettuces, and cowpeas, go for it! "

With a quick glance, the head of the village knew what the local people thought about it, and the people on the Shijiu Lake side made the same choice.

After harvesting the wheat, they planted soybeans, saying that they would not plant rice because they were afraid of rising water.

Soy has a characteristic!It can also be used to feed livestock if cut in advance, it is still good fodder!
When the rice is planted, once the water rises, what should I feed it if I cut it in advance?
Soybean is a dry field, you can cut it when you say it, rice is a paddy field, one foot is deep and the other is shallow, you can cut it by wading in the water and stepping on the mud?
Soybeans are harvested in advance, at least you can eat edamame, and the rice pulp is not full. After harvesting and drying, can you thresh rice the size of sesame seeds?

Soybean seedlings are called bean vines, which can be eaten by livestock, and rice seedlings are called straw, which can also be eaten by livestock, but they lose fat after eating.

Zhu Biao took it for granted: "It seems that the people have already thought of a way out. The local market is a market, and it is best to grow things that can feed livestock."

He looked again, and it became clearer that the market would at best build a simple shed, covered with thatch to prevent rain.

The others are stalls, put a straw curtain on the ground, and some don't even have a straw mat, just put it directly.

The people who set up the stalls knew that the prince and the king of Qin were coming, but they were told in advance that they could do whatever they wanted without kneeling, so they watched the prince strolling curiously.

Someone nearby was distributing soap and popcorn sticks to the people. Zhu Wentian was the most nervous, but his muscles were in a semi-relaxed state.

He didn't intend to kill, but he was ready to throw Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi one by one on the ground at any time.

His flying sticks have a limited range, and when others use bows and crossbows at long distances, he can't hit them.

Around Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi, the children of Xiaqiu Village each held a small pistol with a rear reload.

Zhu Biao didn't even know that small gun, it was just a small thing with rifling inside the barrel.

The most interesting thing is that the children in Xiaqiu Village wear sunglasses on their eyes. They can see other people's eyes, but others cannot see their eyes.

"Li Chang, is this myopia glasses, or flower glasses?"

Zhu Yu was stunned, everyone was fine before, why did he feel far away from his good friends in Xiaqiu Village when he put on this mirror?

"Your Highness, it's not. Don't think too much. This is to make it easier for others to protect people because they don't know where their eyes are looking."

The head of the village understood Zhu Xi's mood, and felt uncomfortable when he couldn't see other people's eyes.

Normally speaking, looking someone in the eye is a form of respect, and looking into the speaker's eyes is also a form of respect.

When one party covers his eyes, the other party becomes awkward.

"Oh, okay, give me one, and I'll try it too." Zhu Xi was happy again.

"Sister, how do you sell this cucumber? The top flower has thorns, it looks fresh."

Zhu Biao squatted in front of a stall selling cucumbers, eggplants, and cowpeas, asking the prices.

"Your Highness, take it away, take it all away." The other party was actually in his forties, and his face was pale.

Zhu Biao: "..."

Are we the ones who rob the common people?We are just asking.

The scene was deadlocked instantly, and the officials were dumbfounded.

"Buy, money, give, um! Hehehehe!" At the critical moment, Hanhan made a move, took out a large handful of copper coins and threw them beside the opponent.

"It's too much, what are you doing with so much money? I'm selling it all on piles, and it only adds up to [-] yuan."

When the vegetable seller saw the copper coins, he picked them up and said that he was afraid that any copper coins he missed would be missed.

Zhu Biao suddenly turned his head to look at Hanhan, and saw that Hanhan had squatted down, picked up a cucumber, rubbed it with his hands, and then took a bite: "Mmm! It's delicious!"
