Chapter 163 Recruiting barbarians to work, thanking the King of Yue

To strengthen contact with the barbarians and expand the production of Gu worms, Wang Ge directly told the Taiwei and the prime minister.

He planned to build a factory in Yue and recruit barbarians to work in the factory.

Although Zhang Yan was in a state of letting things go, he subconsciously reminded:
"Although these poisonous insects are essential for farming, there are many Yue people who hate barbarians. If Your Highness wants to introduce hundreds of barbarians in large numbers, he may be criticized by the people."

Gu insects are one of the elements of farming, but the people of Yue still remember the conflicts between the two countries.

A considerable number of Yue people have been harmed by barbarians.

Zhang Yan reminded that in the past, it was just border trade, which was okay, but now the plan is to have a large number of barbarians enter the country of Yue and live in the country, so the situation is different.

Why do these damn barbarians eat, drink and live with us Yue people?
Zhang Yan was not unreasonable to worry.

But Wang Ge said:

"It doesn't matter. The Yue country is a strong country, and the barbarians are a weak country. The weak should serve the strong and should be subordinate. Even the barbarians know this truth."

The civilization of the barbarians is backward, production is limited, and the barbarian land is poor and remote. The barbarian queen also needs to import food to feed her people, which shows that most barbarians are in distress.

In the past, the Tuqa Barbarian King and the Batu Barbarian King were only a minority after all, not to mention that after Wang Ge's attack a few years ago, those extreme barbarians only had three kittens left, and Queen Guiyue and Princess Mujia joined forces to suppress them. The barbarians are very peaceful now.

On this basis, Wang Ge gave the barbarians an opportunity to work in Yue and fill their bellies.

They all came to Vietnam to work, but they still can’t figure out their position?

To put it harshly, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was here to beg for food.

Zhao Rui nodded slightly when he heard this:
"The majesty of the country is based on the edge of the sword. Your Highness's thunder and rain are all your kindness. The barbarians should receive it. They should be humble and grateful. They dare not make mistakes. The Prime Minister is too worried."

This is the benefit of being powerful.

As far as everyone knows, there is an unfathomable goddess who can control the wind and rain beside the King of Yue.

Zhang Yan pursed his lips, probably understanding.

The Yue Kingdom looks at the barbarians with the attitude of a strong person looking at a weak person, not as an enemy.

"These are all changes brought about by His Highness," Zhang Yan sighed secretly. As early as the beginning of the year, the King of Yue had shown extraordinary qualities.

Zhang Yan recalled that he was thinking about the remnants of Anyang and the mission entrusted by Emperor Xuan, but he did not notice the changes in His Highness.

It was too late to recall, Zhang Yan had already imagined that after the Yue Kingdom cleared its rear area, its national strength had greatly increased.

By then, Vietnam will really be able to maintain its independence, develop for 20 years, and even go north.
Zhang Yan didn't dare to imagine.

The matter regarding the barbarians has been decided, and Zhao Rui will fully cooperate.

Wang Ge, on the other hand, planned to show courtesy first and then fight.

It's late June,

In the Mujia tribe, half a year has passed since Musulin regained his status as the heir to the throne.

She began to manage the entire Mujia tribe and worry about the food and drink expenses of about [-] barbarians.

"There's not enough food again." Mu Suling lay down on the wooden table quite tiredly.

According to past experience, the normal production of food by the Mujia tribe can supply [-] barbarians with food and drink, but after this amount is exceeded, the tribe will become desperate.

Their staple food comes from a tree called "Pasan"

The main body of a mature Pasan tree is about ten meters long, and the fruits it produces are the staple food of the barbarians.

However, the growth cycle of the pasang tree is very long, and it will only start to bear fruit after five or six years. In addition, it requires special light, so it can only be planted in some special environments.

As for large-scale farming, the barbarians simply don’t have the conditions.

There was no flat landscape, no steady water source for irrigation, and tall trees had to be uprooted to gain access to light.

The population is growing too much and resource production is limited.
Musuling was melancholy. She now understood to some extent why some barbarian tribes would attack each other or invade the Yue Kingdom.

If they really have too many mouths to eat and can't afford to feed them, they just need to find some reason to consume the population, and if the robbery is successful, they will be able to obtain the resources to feed the population.

But Mu Suling didn't want to fight. After a moment of melancholy, she muttered:
"I can only go to Vietnam to buy grain through my aunt."

The country of Yue has a strong demand for the wood, minerals and blood ginseng from their barbaric lands.

Musuling decided to let a considerable number of barbarians go to logging and mining in the second half of the year.

"God Naerha forgives me, and your believers also hope that your people can eat and live."

Musuling prays.

Naerha is the god of nature in Bamanism. The trees on the land are Naerha's "fingers". Cutting down trees by barbarians is equivalent to cutting down Naerha's fingers.

But living people cannot starve to death, so just chop them off. As long as you sincerely ask for forgiveness, the gods will forgive you.

Mu Suling felt a little guilty and planned to take a bath and burn incense to apologize to the gods.

But later, Musuling's cronies presented a letter.

The letter is made of silk cloth as the main body, and this kind of high-end is silk.

"Only the north would use such luxury goods to write words." Mu Suling complained.

Barbarians mostly used animal skins and bark as writing materials.

Touching the smooth and skin-friendly texture of Yue Kingdom's silk with her fingertips, Mu Suling sat upright and watched the documents handed over by Yue Kingdom.

The document has two parts, the upper part is about trade with Vietnam.

"Trading rice in the past for a food called red melon"

Mu Suling didn't know what kind of food the red melon was. She didn't dare to be careless when it came to important matters such as eating and drinking for her tribe.

Fortunately, among the things delivered together, there happened to be dry food made from red melons.

First, the followers tested the poison, and then Musuling tasted it.It is sweet, chewy, and has a special fragrance. The taste is even better than the fruit of the barbarian Pasang tree, and it is easy to fill your stomach.

Just trying it, Musuling felt that this kind of food was good.

And she found that according to the selling price in Vietnam, the price of red melons was [-]% less than that of rice for the same weight.

"Twenty percent!" Mu Suling's eyes widened.

With the same money, we could feed 1000 people, but now we can feed more than 200 people!
"What's going on in Yue country? Why did they suddenly give us benefits?"

Although she cooperated happily with the Yue people at the beginning of the year and restored the right to inherit the throne, it did not mean that Mu Suling was going to kneel down and lick the Yue country. She still had to be cautious if her relatives trusted her.

Northerners are not really kind and amiable, they also know how to be cunning and greedy.

In particular, their Mujia tribe still owed a large amount of money to the country of Yue and the king of Yue, which was a burden on the lives of the barbarians.

"Princess, Queen Guiyue has also received such a business order, and the queen seems to be a little moved."

The confidant reminded.

"Auntie is also very concerned about this matter. Let's see her judgment." Mu Suling considered.

The content about trade is in the first half of the letter, and the second half is about the "Dianke Qing" of Vietnam.

Mu Suling had a certain understanding of northern culture and knew that this Dianke was one of the nine northern ministers in charge of diplomatic relations.

It was a matter of diplomacy, Mu Suling read it carefully.

But then she was stunned: "Did the King of Yue give me a gift in return?"

The letter stated that the King of Yue liked the gifts contributed by the barbarians during the New Year very much, so the King of Yue also gave out things as rewards.

Musuling recalled this incident:
"At that time, I thought I heard that the King of Yue liked strange animals, so he asked someone to catch a pair of 'Feng Lei Falcon' and a few bird eggs."

Does the King of Yue like the Thunder Falcon very much?
But why was the return gift delayed until five or six months later?
Mu Suling complained, and she asked her subordinates what the King of Yue had given her.

"After checking, it's a snake slough. It's a big snake slough."

The subordinate replied in a horrified tone.

snake.
Things that Mu Suling had almost forgotten began to emerge:
At the beginning of last year, she saw a viper that she liked very much. She liked it so much that her heart beat so much that she even thought about it in her dreams.

She was looking forward to seeing if she could see the snake.

The reply from Yueguo was to let her wait.

After waiting for half a year, Mu Suling thought she had been tricked, and felt disappointed and aggrieved.

How great her expectations were, how great her disappointment was. Because of this incident, she and the King of Yue remembered it.

Phew, liar!

But now, when Mu Suling heard that the King of Yue presented the "snake slough" as a gift, she subconsciously thought of the adder she had been thinking about.

His heart was throbbing, and even the snake-shaped king Gu on his heart was active.

"Bring it to me quickly," Mu Suling urged.

"Princess, that snake skin is too big. It's really too big. It can't be brought in or spread out." The subordinate said awkwardly.

Mu Suling was stunned for a moment, looking at his door where two people could walk side by side and the [-]-square-meter interior.

"How big is it? Forget it, I'll go take a look."

Mu Suling put down what she was doing and hurried out. Under the guidance, she saw the snake slough placed in the center of the tribe.

At this moment, Mu Suling is not the only one in the Mujia tribe who is in the tribe square.
There are even other barbarians.

However, they all raised their heads, their hearts were beating loudly, and the snake-shaped folk Gu in their hearts began to stir.

In their eyes, the snake slough was just the head supported by a wooden frame, reaching a height of two meters.

The entire snake slough is placed in a "snake plate" posture.
Covering an area of ​​more than [-] square meters, the "snake body" is coiled six times, with an overall height of more than eight meters. The body has beautiful and pure white scales. Even the smallest scales are as big as a palm, while the largest scales are like a body-sized shield. shield.

So glamorous
Everyone could only look up and look at the majestic snake head that looked like a huge rock.

Just being supported and the snake sloughing off, all the barbarians felt surrounded by a giant land beast.

The snake slough exudes a strong aura, which can be sensed by snakes and all snake voodoo hosts.

This is the king of snakes, no, this is the remnant of the snake god!
"Okay. Big snake,"

Mu Suling's breathing was heavy, she raised her head, her eyes widened, filled with the appearance of the snake shedding.

Suddenly, she clutched the right side of her chest.

"Don't, don't be like this. It's great, it's beautiful, don't get too excited, don't get excited."

Mu Suling's face turned red, showing a bit of pain and a bit of excitement.

It was actually the Snake King Gu in her heart that was stimulated by the snake's sloughing breath and became extremely restless, causing her host to have an irregular heartbeat and soar her blood pressure.

"I'm going to get close to it, I'm going to hug it, I'm going to kiss it."

Mu Suling seemed to have lost her soul and approached Snake Sheila. She walked faster and faster, and finally ran almost a hundred meters sprint.

Until he swooped in and his whole face fell into the snake's slough.

Mu Suling showed a satisfied and happy smile.

Is this a gift from the King of Yue?

The king I respect, the king I am most grateful for, the king who makes me feel happy.

I am grateful for your generous gift!
