Chapter 216: The Coming Tribulation (2)
After visiting the villages where delicious melons and fruits are grown, Minsa and still say that they are happy to eat fresh fruit crisps that fill their stomachs. www.biquge.info Walking on the road outside the village, Minsa still recalls the taste of the melon just now, which is really fat, crunchy and juicy, sweet but not greasy!
When the shipping trade is opened, the people of Yunling will be blessed! And the villagers here don't have to live so poor anymore.
"I feel more and more like we're doing something very meaningful." Minsa was impressed.
Still Shu glanced sideways at the little devil, and saw the dazzling light in her eyes, knowing that she must have thought that in the near future, life here would be completely new.
In fact, he still said that he was quite emotional in his heart: "After experiencing the process of rebuilding the Yue clan with Pei Xing, I also admire Lord Wanfu more and more. Just as the spirit master once instructed Pei Xing, as the overlord of one side, monopolizing the power of the country, taking life and death, prohibiting orders, and promoting benefits and eliminating harm, he is the only reliance and the only belief of all subjects in the land of Yunling. The great responsibility on this shoulder, the weight of the heart..."
Minsa also glanced sideways at the requirement, and saw that his expression was agitated, and he seemed to respect the important responsibility of the lord of a country, although he did not know why he suddenly thought of the lord of Wanfu, but he did not deny that he was right.
Still sighing about his identity, the more he admires the Lord of Wanfu, the more he rejects himself, the role of a chess piece hidden in the dark. But these little devils won't understand.
……
Further on, the two villages passed through were quiet and quite comfortable, and the living conditions were obviously richer than those of the melon-producing villages in front of them.
It is even more discoverable to enter the village of Still Shu and Minsa. Originally, there were also abundant gems in one or two countryside on the border of the Tsukishi country, so there were many cheap jewelry and handicrafts mainly inlaid with gemstones.
The craftsmanship of those masters in the countryside is very good, but unfortunately there are too few people who understand, so these masters are responsible for the whole process of polishing and setting, and the efficiency cannot keep up, which also makes these jewelry appear a little rough and not ingenious enough, so for a while the gemstone crafts have not been able to bring considerable benefits to the local area.
Gems are much more valuable than melon and fruit trade, and if these gem workshops are modified and used, they will do a great favor to the trade of the Yue Clan.
"The nobles of Yunling should be interested in these gems, right?" Minsa looked at some of the five-colored gems in the master's workshop, and felt that they were varieties that she had never seen in Yanzhou and Wanling, and those pampered wealthy generals in Wanling would definitely be satisfied.
"I don't have experience with this," still Shu said jokingly, "You can ask Gu Ting when you go back, that guy is called a nobleman." ”
Minsa glanced at him and laughed at him.
"Okay, the first batch of trade has been delivered, let Gu Ting contribute a batch of money first." Minsa also joked.
"It would be nice if Chi Heng and Sang Li were also in Wanling, and those two guys could also contribute a lot."
"By the way, when their baby is born, if we are still here, we will go and see the little one." Minsa laughed happily as he spoke.
"Sang Li and Chi Heng's children," still Shu said with a smile, "either they are rude and willful, or they are silent." ”
After saying that, both of them laughed.
……
After seeing these gem workshops, Minsa still recounted a group of people coming out of this rural village.
Because of the relative affluence of life, the villagers of these two villages were not in a hurry to recommend their own things to the two nobles from the main palace, and they did not pay much attention to what they said about shipping or trade.
When you want to open a gemstone workshop, you still need to work on these masters. I'm afraid that they won't be willing to change their habits for many years at the beginning, and they need to know and believe that the benefits of turning their original own workshop into a multi-labor workshop are still valuable.
……
Out of the village, there are no houses and walls to cover it, and the cold wind blowing in all directions is a bit biting. But it was still a good thing that Shu and Minsa felt warm in their hearts at the moment, and they found that they could do gemstone business.
Mingsa tightened his cloak, the cold winter wind and snow in the Western Regions were really dozens of times colder than the land south of the Jiangnan, and even a few points more prosperous than Yanzhou.
The group walked further forward and came to a few more mountains. Minsa saw this group of snow-capped mountains, with a lot of scenery and a better mood.
The attendant who was sent by Pei Xing as a person who was familiar with the topography and climate of the Yue Clan, saw that Mingsa and still Shu were looking at these snow-capped mountains, so they chased forward a few steps and said: "There is a distant legend in these mountains, I wonder if the county lord and the marquis are interested in hearing about it?" ”
Minsa and still Shu readily agreed, of course, just waiting for him to speak slowly.
Legend has it that a long time ago, this snow-capped mountain group was a flat pasture. On the ranch lives a hardworking and kind couple.
Unfortunately, his wife passed away after giving birth to a pair of beautiful twin girls. The lonely old shepherd was left to raise his two daughters alone. The daughters grew up, and although they were very intelligent, they were frail and sickly. The old shepherd had been trying to find a way to keep his daughters healthy, but it had backfired.
One day, the old shepherd dreamed of a man of God, who told him that there was a mountain of the sun and moon in the east of the sunrise, and that there was a treasure mirror in the mountain that could cure all diseases. So, the old shepherd decided to go to the Sun Moon Mountain to get the treasure mirror, leaving the two daughters to graze at home and wait for their father to return.
Day after day, year after year. Both daughters have changed from young women to gray-haired old women, but they can't wait for their father to return. In the end, they became two peaks, two parallel and similar snow-capped mountains in front of them.
The snow on the top of the mountain is their white hair, the glacier on the mountainside is their tears, and the dwarf and gentle snow-capped mountains around them are their sheep.
After a long time, the old shepherd finally returned from taking the treasure mirror, only to find that his beloved daughters had turned into snowy mountains. It turns out that a day in Mount Kinabalu is a year in the world.
The old herdsman's heart trembled, and the treasure mirror in his hand shattered to the ground and turned into two glaciers. Later, the old man quietly watched his daughters every day, and it also turned into a snowy mountain.
This shepherd father is the higher snow-capped mountain behind the two snow-capped mountains in front of him, and he is called the "father of the snowy mountains".
It turned out to be a slightly sad story, Minsa thought. His father loves broadly, his father is majestic, and he uses his tallest body to shield the two daughters in front of him from the wind and snow. After the rendering of this legend, the snow-capped mountain transformed by the father of the snow-capped mountain and his two daughters in front of him looks more unique and seems to be more spectacular.
