The so-called caravan does not need a way, and that is only a matter of specific circumstances.

First of all, the caravan had to be recognized by the government.

This is also equivalent to registering a trademark with the government.

These will also be registered by Liang Ji on behalf of Liu Xian to the Xiatao County Government.

The name of the caravan is the Liu Mansion Caravan of Liulin Village, and the person in charge is Liu Xian.

Secondly, the caravan had to have a certain strength. You can think about it, several teams of hundreds of people, fully armed, arrived in a county town. With only 200 regular officers and soldiers in the county, they certainly didn't dare to embarrass the caravan too much. Moreover, it is still a legal caravan.

If you are tougher, when you pass through some government checkpoints, you can completely ignore it and pass directly. But when you encounter a master who is not easy to mess with, it is better to spend some money to deal with it. When a conflict is really launched, the caravan still can't directly fight other officers and soldiers, which is tantamount to killing officials and rebelling.

And then there will be many more benefits to the caravan. For example, in Liaotao County, if Liu Xian's caravan develops, this is a force that cannot be ignored, but it conforms to the laws of the Han Dynasty. At that time, even if it was the chief official of Xiatao County, he had to give Liu Xian a few thin noodles.

If the caravan can be developed to hundreds of people, then Liu Xian is equivalent to a businessman in Xiatao County, and the county order has to be polite when he sees Liu Xian. There are even many aspects that have to rely on Liu Xian, and if there is anything, they may consult Liu Xian.

And Liu Xian's caravan, within the county, can basically run rampant. At that time, in order to win over Liu Xian, the county magistrate of this county will show favor to Liu Xian, and will invite Liu Xian to take up some idle positions in the government.

In the Great Han Dynasty, during this Three Kingdoms period, there were many examples of such situations.

For example, in Xuzhou, Mi Zhu, a wealthy merchant in Xuzhou, his ancestors have been engaged in reclamation for generations, raising nearly 10,000 servants and diners, and having assets of hundreds of millions. Later, he was engaged in other driving by Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian.

There are nearly 10,000 diners and hundreds of millions of assets. These are all true, the wealth of the Mi family is known to the world, just look at the later Mi family can support Liu Bei's military resources in Xuzhou for many years, so we can know how rich the Mi family is. People directly do a different job as a state pastor, in terms of reputation and status, it can really be said that it is a step to the sky.

Anyway, during the Three Kingdoms period, especially in the early days, money can do a lot of things.

Your own force is not obtained out of thin air, you have to cultivate your own penance.

And their own power will not develop out of thin air, they must first have money. Everything Liu Xian is doing now is to make better money and more money to develop his power in the future.

Liu Xian took Chen Gen, Chen Shi, Liu Fu and other members of the Self-Defense Force to the bank of the Qingshui River in the north of the village.

Of these injured Self-Defense Forces, those with minor injuries have been able to return to the team, and a few others are recuperating.

Liu Xian brought them here to find a way to fish from the river and see what they had, if there was no way, then he would figure it out himself.

Fishing in the big river, Liu Xian must have thought of using fishing nets to net fish, and only in this way can he catch more. Of course, there will be some skills in catching fish with fishing nets, but Liu Xian has only heard of it, and he has seen it on movies and television, but he has no actual experience.

In addition, to catch fish with fishing nets, it is necessary to have a boat and a fishing net.

In the Han Dynasty, there were already fishing nets, but in Liu Xian's impression, it seems that no one had ever seen fishing nets in the Qingshui River. Moreover, no ships have been found yet.

In fact, there are boats in Liulin Village, which are the kind of wooden boats.

There is no bridge over the Qingshui River, and if you want to go to Yangshi County on the other side, you can only use a boat.

It's a pity that the boat has already been robbed by the Yellow Turban thieves, and I don't know if it was destroyed or sailed somewhere else.

In fact, there were still a lot of ploughing cattle in Liulin Village, basically one ploughing ox for every ten households, and some mules and horses. But after the looting of the Yellow Turban Army and the officers and soldiers, there was nothing left. Liu Fu also had two horses, which were also taken away by the officers and soldiers.

For the time being, I don't have a boat, and I can't use fishing nets to catch fish, but the problem of boats is easy to solve, and some rafts can be made instead of boats. Earlier, Yu Jin and the others went to Yangshi County, and they simply made a raft to cross the river.

The nets had to be woven by the women of the village.

Liu Xian also somewhat understood why he had never seen anyone fishing with fishing nets in Liulin Village. Mainly because of the problem with fishing nets.

In this era, there was no light and tough glue wire, no tough silk thread to weave the net, only hemp rope to weave. Fishing nets woven with hemp rope are easily damaged after blisters and should be repaired frequently. And the hemp rope is also very heavy, and it is difficult to recover the nets that are too large. It's not something that can be done by one person.

If you want a boat, you have to have fishing nets, you have to have enough people to fish together, and you have to have people who know how to weave nets and repair fishing nets, so it is difficult for ordinary people to use fishing nets to catch fish directly.

In addition, catching too many fish with fishing nets is not a good thing and can cause trouble.

For whether it is a field, a forest, or a river, it is nominally a land of lords. Usually the villagers fish in the river, and if the quantity is small, no one will pay attention, but when the number is large, it will be red-eyed, especially when it reaches the ears of the river owner, and more fishing taxes will definitely be levied on the fishermen.

That's right, fishing in the river is also taxable.

In fact, in this ancient era, there would be people who guarded the mountains and forests and the rivers.

It may sound ridiculous, but it's true.

The landlord's mountain forest did not allow ordinary people to cut down those trees to make firewood. If you cut down the trees in the mountains and forests of the landlord's house, you will be severely fined, and you will have to pay compensation, and you can even report to the officials and arrest people.

Of course, ordinary landlords would not do so desperately, and the common people went to their mountains and forests to check some dry firewood, cut down some weeds and weeds to make firewood, and they also acquiesced. But cutting down trees certainly won't work.

In the same way, if the river belongs to a landlord, then when the people fish in the river, the landlord's family will send someone to collect the fishing tax. If you don't give it, you can go to the government to file a complaint.

If you catch it and eat it yourself, and you don't catch much, no one may pay attention to it. But if you catch too many fish and exchange them for money, you won't be able to.

In addition, as I said earlier, we should emphasize agriculture over business. Ordinary people catch fish for their own food, and they will not exchange it for money, and if they catch too much, they will give it away, and only occasionally they will take it to the county seat and sell it for money.

However, now the landlords may have been killed by the Yellow Turban thieves, and the mountains, forests and rivers have long been borderless, so naturally anyone can go fishing.
