Chapter 403: Time Strikes (Fourth Update)
"Harvest Artemisia seeds, Li Family Zhuangzi has collected Artemisia seeds." Those who get the newspaper today read the story first, and then look at the common sense of life.
It also introduces how the Datang Dajing team and the Ministry of Industry cooperate.
Looking further down, there is a short paragraph: From now on, Bashui Li Family Zhuangzi buys Artemisia at a high price, regardless of the type, the more the better.
Seeing this, he shouted out loudly.
The others listened and stepped forward to ask.
Not for a long time, many Chang'an people ran out to find Artemisia, the Dragon Boat Festival, this season Artemisia has the best medicinal effect.
In Lantian County, a horse-drawn carriage arrived, and the people on the carriage shouted directly: "Newspaper, Chang'an's newspaper, today's new newspaper, we will send it to you every day in the future." ”
The counties around Jingzhao Mansion had already known that newspapers had been published, and some people had brought a few copies when they returned from Chang'an.
The big families and scholars in the county borrowed the newspapers from the people who brought them back, and some copied them directly.
It's just that the distance is far away, and it is impossible for them to go to Chang'an to buy a newspaper in person.
Now when I heard it, there was even someone who sent it, and where the carriage stopped, people next to him ran over.
"Is the price still three cents? We can give five cents. A man dressed as a scholar took out five copper coins.
"Three dollars, the price remains the same, in the future, there will be a car early every day to deliver newspapers, Lantian County is the closest, first send 500 copies.
If you don't see enough, the quantity will increase, so don't worry, don't buy it and raise the price before selling. ”
The people of Zhuangzi set the price to death, and then introduced the situation after tomorrow.
The people of Lantian County were happy and paid for it.
The scholar generously read to an illiterate person to listen, and the big family bought it and ran back to give it to the proprietor.
Other counties, as the car arrived, repeated the events of Lantian County.
"Go and pick artemisia, the newspaper said that a large number of purchases are made, and the price is high."
The people who read the newspaper read it, and the people beckoned to each other to cut the artemisia.
The next day, the people who delivered the tea were gone, and they were all bundles of artemisia.
"Go, call the thirty imperial doctors, and take the farmers to separate the types of artemisia, don't mix them together, mugwort has the best effect of making moxa."
Li Yi didn't move himself, isn't there a doctor, just right, the nurses in the fifty Zhuangzi can also learn.
While Zhuangzi was trying to harvest artemisia, the people in the Honglu Temple were sighing.
"Why don't you rent us a house? We've already put a very high price on it. ”
The people of the Turkic section smelled a disgusting smell of ink, and the whole person could not lift his spirits at all.
When I first smelled this smell, I thought it smelled good, but it turned out to be with the same smell all day long, and people were dizzy.
They didn't know that the people in the Li family Zhuangzi printing workshop wore masks and took turns to go in.
"I can't rent a house over there, and when I heard that we rented it, the other party refused, and the people didn't dare to accept it." Another Turkic spoke with his sleeve covered his mouth.
It's a pity that the clothes under his body are all smelling of ink, and he can't stop it at all.
"Can't wait, according to the report of the people we sent, in addition to a hot air balloon in the palace, the Li family Zhuangzi made a new one.
So far, there are a total of seven hot air balloons in use.
I also heard the news from the inquiry, and the prison and the Shaofu are cooperating in the production.
It won't be long before a large number of them will appear and be shipped to the border.
Ladies and gentlemen, once Datang uses hot air balloons to achieve results, Datang's attitude towards the outside world will inevitably change. ”
The Tibetans spoke out the seriousness of the matter, and the hot air balloon was made too fast.
Others are still a little worse, but Tibet is the most dangerous, and Tibet has cities, cultivated land, and workshops.
The Turkic tribes in the steppe can run if they can't beat them, and the cavalry is fast, and they will move when they say they will move.
The place of Tubo can be occupied, and then set up as a city of the Tang Dynasty.
In addition, Tubo coerced many small tribes to help Tubo fight the Tang Dynasty together, and when targeting the ten Turkic surnames, they attacked endlessly.
Many people with the ten Turkic surnames were forced to the side of the Tang Dynasty, and the other courtyards of the Honglu Temple were inhabited by envoys with the ten Turkic surnames.
The alliance is not strong enough, it is said to be scattered, and it turns around and becomes an enemy.
"How?" The people of one of the Turkic tribes have made up their minds.
"Choose a good hand to go over, not later, even more so Huangzhuang, you can only enter from the water, and choose a person with good water performance, swim over at night from the upstream and downstream.
It's just that I don't know the location of the workshop for making hot air balloons, and I heard that there are many workshops in Zhuangzi, and there are people patrolling. ”
The Tibetans began to analyze and deploy, choosing to take the waterway, but the difficulty they encountered was that they could not determine the location.
"When a person goes over, grab someone and ask him." Another Tibetan sneered.
"Go out of the city to find someone, it will be very troublesome for us people to be caught." The Tibetans lowered their voices.
It means that Tubo will send people first, and then everyone will prepare again, and if it is successful once, they will directly find a way to pass on the information.
If it doesn't work once, the other party has to take precautions, and it is necessary to organize a second manpower and send many people.
Everyone nodded in support.
At noon, a group of Tibetan people went to the West Market to wander around, first to taste snacks, and then to look at other goods.
If you have something you like, you can bargain with the seller and buy it.
After eating and shopping, they went to the place where the cattle were bought and sold.
Looking at the cattle and horses, asking the price, it seems to consider how much profit the cattle and horses in Tibet will take.
He also helps other people talk about the advantages and disadvantages of horses, and looks like an expert.
When the team returned, the people were still the same, but one of them had changed.
He was not a man who went out, but a man who brought three horses to sell them in the West Market.
This person is also from Tibet, and he is very good to judge from his appearance.
There are many foreigners in Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, and there are all kinds of business or translators.
There are places to watch horses in the West Market, and there are some who don't have horses themselves, and only watch the livestock for others, so as to earn commissions.
Even if the livestock is sick, they can help to take a look and make a fork.
When it was almost dark, the horse seller led the horse out of the city gate, and drove the three horses all the way west.
After going out for a while, when it was completely dark, he mounted his horse and galloped away with the other two horses.
When you reach the fork in the road, turn north, and to the north is Xianyang County.
After more than half an hour, when he arrived at the boundary of Xianyang County, he did not go to the county seat, and there was a broken temple on the mountain next to him.
In the past, there were people in this temple who came to offer incense or spend the night overnight.
But then it was rumored that there were unclean things in this temple, and the old and the young stayed here for one night and never went back.
It is also rumored that there is a woman's cry at night, and after listening to it for a long time, she will look for the cry and be fascinated.
After a long time, everyone talked less about this dilapidated temple, let alone going there at night.
The riders went, and when they came to a place where they could not ride, they came down and led them away.
The sound of clattering horses' hooves sounded, and when he entered the ruined temple, he didn't see a single person.
He took a small bag from his bosom, placed it under the incense-burning shrine, and turned to leave.
Half an hour passed, and a figure appeared, ran to the position of the altar, quickly took out the things underneath, and then disappeared again.
