Chapter 175: Reckoning and Counterreckoning

"Are the rivers near the paddock and the rivers connected to them flooding regularly?" ”

Lord Moyan nodded: "Yes, except for last year's drought, almost every year during the rainy season, there will be floods near these rivers that will break the embankment, causing flooding. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info But there will be no disasters this year, the emperor in your family, General Li, at the suggestion of the Ministry of Industry, let the people of the Ministry of Industry build a dam with cement, which is ten times stronger than the previous embankment built by sediment, and can definitely block the flood. ”

"Treating the symptoms is not the root cause." Han Nuo sighed, "If you want to completely eliminate the flood, you must start from the upstream, you need to plant more trees, reduce soil erosion, the sediment will not be washed down by the water, and the river will not overflow due to the increase in the riverbed......

Lord Moyan and Qi Xueru listened to it in a foggy way, and the corners of Han Nuo's mouth twitched when he saw their expressions. Forget it, don't talk to the two laymen, wait until you come back from the paddock, find a plan for the control of the Yellow River on the Internet, print it out and give it to the eldest brother of the Li family, and ask him to transfer it to the emperor. Hmph, she didn't help the emperor, but she couldn't bear the people to suffer from the flood.

Because of the large number of people and carriages, the speed of driving was too slow, and the original five or six days of travel dragged on for nearly half a month to reach the paddock, which made a group of pampered ladies and ladies suffer a lot. If you don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about eating. How can there be time to make good food during this hurry, not to mention delicious food, not even food with soup, either barbecue or dry food, so that the ladies are miserable.

"Nono, you're so amazing that you can think of this way of preserving noodles." The county lord of Moyan gave a thumbs up while eating the soaked instant noodles.

Yue Yunfei picked up the ham sausage: "And it tastes good, and it can be preserved for a long time." Wei Feng, do you think it can be purchased as military rations? ”

The eldest brother of the Li family had not thought about the issue of instant noodles as military rations before, but now after Yue Yunfei mentioned it, he felt that it was a good idea, especially for the sergeants on the border. The eldest brother of the Li family began to think about the possibility of opening an instant noodle making factory in the Great Zhou Dynasty, well, it would be better to open another fruit canning workshop, so that the soldiers could eat pickled fruits even if they could not eat fresh fruits, which not only satisfied the appetite of the soldiers, but also gave them vitamins.

What are the characteristics of instant noodles? It smelled very fragrant, and the fragrance came out of Han Nuo's carriage, making the people in the convoy can't help but drool. There were people with thick skin, or who boasted that they had a good relationship with Li Weifeng, Yue Yunfei, and the county lord of Moyan, so they came to inquire and begged for delicious food. Han Nuo naturally agreed, and each person sent ten packs of instant noodles - of course, after letting the people repackage them, the modern packaging could not be seen by the ancients, so as not to shock them - fortunately, Han Nuo bought a large amount, and she and the eldest brother of the Li family had long expected such a situation to happen, and bought hundreds of boxes of instant noodles. The emperor also asked for a hundred bags of instant noodles from the eldest brother of the Li family, and after more than an hour, the emperor asked people to call the eldest brother of the Li family.

When the eldest brother of the Li family returned, he told Han Nuo and his people that he had told the emperor the details of how to make instant noodles and canned fruits, and then the emperor took over these two businesses.

"The emperor promised that in the future, one-third of the instant noodles and canned fruits produced by the two workshops would be supplied to the border army."

"That's great." Yue Yunfei and Geng Shi'an were happy, but they knew how bad the food of the soldiers at the border was.

Han Nuo pouted: "Didn't give you a little money to buy patents?" ”

The eldest brother of the Li family smiled: "Rewarded me with a roast leg of mutton." ”

Han Nuo: "It's so stingy. ”

Finally arrived at the Mulan paddock and began to set up camp. Sure enough, as the eldest brother of the Li family said, the ancient tent was very large, and the appearance looked very beautiful, more like a yurt. In the tent, there was a bed made of wooden planks, and Han Nuo did not make a mattress on the net, so he directly put his sleeping bag on it. Naturally, as soon as the sleeping bag came out, it aroused the interest of the county lord of Moyan and others, and they didn't make beds anymore, and one of them asked for a sleeping bag to leave. And Yue Yunfei saw the convenience of sleeping bags on the way to camp on the march, and discussed with the eldest brother of the Li family and Geng Shi'an, and the three of them jointly made a business of sleeping bags to supply the army. The eldest brother of the Li family and Geng Shi'an will not accept it.

The area of the paddock is very large, with grasslands, forests, lakes and hills, which is very suitable for hunting. The range of activities of men and women was separated, Han Nuo and Lord Moyan led the horses, and Qi Xueru accompanied them. Not all women are like Han Nuo and Lord Moyan who can ride horses and know archery, most of the daughters of the Great Zhou Dynasty do not go out of the door, although Qi Xueru is a little more ambitious with the two of them, but they are essentially weak ladies and will not ride horses and shoot arrows. And the ladies and ladies of the Great Zhou Dynasty came to participate in the hunt just to distract themselves, and few people were able to participate in the hunt. Seeing Han Nuo and Lord Moyan leading the horses, the other daughters were first surprised, and then sneered. They thought that Han Nuo was riding a horse in order to pat the sycophants of the county lord of Moyan, but in fact, he was holding a good look, and he didn't know how to ride a horse at all.

"Is Mrs. Lee leading the horse to participate in a horse race to be held in a while?" A woman in pink walked over and asked.

Han Nuo's gaze swept to Zhang Surong beside the woman - that is the talented girl who is famous for her poetry, and wants to use her skills such as poetry, calligraphy, piano and chess to suppress Han Nuo but was slapped in the face by Han Nuo - suddenly remembered that this woman in pink was Zhang Surong's best friend Qiao Yuanyu.

For those who didn't have enough lessons and stepped forward to contribute to the face beating, Han Nuo hooked his lips slightly and made an embarrassed expression: "My riding skills are not good, so I can only jog on a horse." Horse racing is such an intense and skill-testing event, so I still don't want to participate. ”

"Huh? Is that so? That's not good. We just saw Mrs. Li leading the horse over, thinking that your riding skills are excellent, and you are comparable to the Lord of Moyan. Therefore, when the waiter came to ask who was going to participate in the horse race, he said your name in passing, and was hugged by the waiter. Qiao Yuanyu covered her mouth and said, "I didn't mean to, so what's good?" "Why don't we hurry up and help Mrs. Li clarify?" ”

"No need!" Han Nuo smiled slightly, "Since the name has been reported, then I will participate." When the time comes, Miss Qiao will have to be merciful! ”

"What mercy?" Qiao Yuanyu was stunned and asked.

Han Nuo didn't answer, and left with Lord Moyan and Qi Xueru.

Qiao Yuanyu asked Zhang Surong: "What did she mean by showing mercy to her subordinates?" ”

Zhang Surong's face changed: "Oh no, she is likely to report your name to the chamberlain and let you also go to the horse race." ”

"What?" Qiao Yuanyu jumped up in fright, pulled up Zhang Surong and ran, "Hurry up and catch up, and let the waiter remove my name." ”

She hadn't even been on horseback, how could she ride a horse? She had to erase her name quickly, otherwise she wouldn't be able to participate when the chamberlain reported her name. Even if she doesn't know how to ride a horse, she has to get to the arena according to the rules, which is a shame in front of everyone. They wanted to use this method to disgrace Han Nuo before, but they didn't want to lose face themselves!

Zhang Surong and Qiao Yuanyu hurriedly caught up with the waiter who counted the registrations for each event, and after bribing the waiter with a piece of jade pendant, the two finally opened the registration form and found that there was only Han Nuo's name on it, not Qiao Yuanyu's name, and Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

"It scared you." Zhang Surong let go of his hanging heart and said, "Yes, she only knew about the horse racing registration, how can she have time to tell the waiter to add your name." ”

Qiao Yuanyu relaxed and gritted her teeth: "Damn, she dares to scare me, I'm waiting to see her make a fool of herself." β€œ

Han Nuo on the other side smiled, and used his divine sense to outline Qiao Yuanyu's name on the registration form in the hand of the waiter.

The county lord of Moyan laughed at Zhang Surong and Qiao Yuanyu on the side: "These two people have not learned enough lessons after being slapped in the face once, and they have to give their faces to you to beat." It's so interesting, I'll take a good look at their frustrated expressions in a moment. ”

Qi Xueru was more kind, did not laugh loudly, and sighed: "They think that Nuo Nuo is a weak woman like them, but they don't know that Nuo Nuo is both civil and martial, let alone horsebacking. If this is not the case, how could General Li be infatuated with Nuo Nuo and be single-minded? ”

The county lord of Moyan turned around and hugged Qi Xueru's shoulders and said, "Those women are not happy to find themselves, don't you sympathize with them!" ”

Qi Xueru said gently: "Don't worry, I still know the difference between outsiders and my own." ”

After about half an hour, the horse racing conference is about to begin. When all the ladies and ladies heard the news that Han Nuo was going to participate in the horse race, they all gathered outside the race - the men and women would be separated by a curtain - and came to see the excitement (to see Han Nuo make a fool).

The chamberlain began to read out the list of people who had signed up for the race, and one by one the names of the men who were read out led their horses into the arena. In anticipation, Han Nuo's name was read out of the mouth of the waiter.

"Wei Feng, your wife is really a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows go!" The emperor laughed with the eldest brother of the Li family, and when he saw Han Nuo leading the horse into the arena, Li Xuanzong was slightly stunned, and a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his clarity.

The eldest brother of the Li family did not miss Li Xuanzong's gaffe at that moment, and his heart tightened, thinking that he would not let Han Nuo do anything in the limelight in the future. was remembered by the emperor, who knows what will happen in the future! I only hope that the emperor will be quickly distracted by the other beauties around him and forget Han Nuo.

The eldest brother of the Li family sighed, and now it is impossible to ask Han Nuo to withdraw from the competition.

"Qiao Yuanyuβ€”" The waiter read out the name of the only two other women. (To be continued.) )
