Chapter 271: Naturalization

Wu'e Tucheng.

There is a grass hut in an open space in the center of the city, and there are a few simple tables and chairs in the grass hut, all of which Lu Ning has made in the past few days.

Lu Ning sat lazily behind the table, there were holes in the grass shed, and when the sun shone down, he seemed to be basking in the sun.

On the table, there are several large pieces of black sucrose wrapped in oil paper, which is the first batch of products produced by the sugar store built by Donghai Baixing in Yongzhou, Lu Ning ordered to send a hundred catties, in addition to tasting it, but also rewarded the soldiers of the Red Tiger Army who are now deeply hairless, in addition, a small part was left, ready to be given to Ruan Danyu and his wife.

In the former Tang Dynasty, the sugar boiling technology introduced by India was integrated with the traditional sugar industry of the Central Plains, and China's sugar was already the world's top sugar product, but candy was too luxurious and only the nobles could enjoy it.

And now, the Central Plains has appeared a hydraulic sugar press, which has greatly improved the output and efficiency of brown sugar, and even, there has been a discovery of what yellow mud water is used to decolorize the white sugar, but the cost of white sugar is too high, and it has become a top luxury like the previous candy, and brown sugar and brown sugar can enter the civilian families with better conditions.

Of course, for these families, brown sugar and brown sugar are also luxuries, and it is good to be able to buy a pack a year.

Lingnan produces a lot of sugarcane, and it is inconvenient to transport, so Donghai Baixing only built a sugar store in Yongzhou, after all, the cost of transporting sugar is simply insignificant compared with the cost of transporting sugarcane to make these sugarcanes.

Looking at the black sucrose on the table, Lu Ning felt a huge sense of satisfaction in his heart, and even the achievements brought by conquering the city seemed to be inferior to now.

What 300,000 heavy rewards, what various measures to encourage craftsmen to invent, improve the status of craftsmen, and gradually see the results.

The water-powered sugar press has nothing to do with itself, it is all made by the folk craftsmen under the East China Sea Baixing.

This kind of visible change made Lu Ning's heart very happy, and even, looking at the beautiful figure of Li Yanniang in snow-white clothes and pants on the side, he felt that she was dignified and generous, gentle and charming.

Although Lu Ning knows that his influence on China is more in the new learning, those disciplines, as well as the teaching philosophy and the concept of how to explore the world, it really has a profound impact on China.

But the effect is, after all, gradual, a very slow process, and not as straightforward as the change brought about by a craftsman's new invention.

Ten days ago, the four battalions of the Red Tiger Army arrived in Wu'e Prefecture, and two days later, the Giant Sword Battalion and the three new battalions also arrived in Wu'e Prefecture, in Wu'e Prefecture, the Red Tiger Army six battalions of 3,000 people, and there is the advantage of defending the city, the autumn has just passed, and there is a lot of grain storage in the city, even if it is besieged, it is enough for the people in the city to hold on for two or three months.

However, Jiao Gonghan's military horses have never appeared.

Ruan Danyu and his wife, I don't know if they have a little regret now and lure the wolf into the house.

Thinking that Cao Cao Cao would arrive, Lu Ning suddenly sat upright.

Ruan Danyu is walking over.

Lu Ning smiled and pointed to the cane sugar on the table, "Come, Yongzhou sugar, freshly baked, take it back and try it." ”

In the near future, in addition to silk, cotton, porcelain and tea, the main force of Chinese commodities in foreign trade, will have a new weapon.

Ruan Danyu hurriedly walked up two steps, learning the Central Plains etiquette and slightly bent his knees, "Thank you Wen Academy." ”

After the first batch of soldiers of the fourth battalion arrived in Wu'e Prefecture, Lu Ning had already confessed his identity to Ruan Danyu and his wife, not to mention Ruan Danyu's stunned at that time, and where did he not know at this time, this Qi people's Annan envoy was only afraid that he had a deep plan, but now his wife wants to leave the chariot of the Wen General Hospital, it is no longer possible.

The change in Wu'e City, in the middle of the night, Ruan Danyu and his wife first poisoned, and then led their cronies to kill, and those leaders who supported Mrs. Wona were either poisoned or killed, almost slaughtered, and Mrs. Wona was nowhere to be found.

However, if you are familiar with the politics of China's palace, you will know that this disappearance is actually a death, and it is Ruan Danyu and his wife, who do not want to be charged with killing their mother.

Mrs. Wo Na and the people close to her never imagined that Ruan Danyu and his wife would be so ruthless and desperate, so they fell into the Tao.

How did Lu Ning ever think of it? This Ruan Danyu is a little woman, vicious? Therefore, the food supply and water source of the Red Tiger Army in Wu'e Tucheng, etc., Lu Ning had to pay more attention to it.

At this moment, seeing Ruan Danyu happily picking up the oil paper bag and leaving, Lu Ning looked at her back and smiled: "Li Yanniang, compared to her, you are far behind!" ”

"Cut", Li Yanniang looked too lazy to pay attention to Lu Ning.

may gradually discover that Lu Ning is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside, from a certain point of view, his heart is still very soft, as long as he doesn't touch his taboos, it doesn't hurt to be coquettish or something.

Moreover, after the great escape that night, it seems that this Wen General Academy is no longer the same as before, and she has never had a good face.

Of course, Li Yanniang knows the way to advance and retreat, no, as soon as Lu Ning stood up, she hurriedly held up the oil umbrella, followed Lu Ning upside down, got out of the grass shed, and raised the oil umbrella to shade Lu Ning.

Now in winter, Wu'e is as warm as spring, where do you need an oil umbrella to shade the sun?

But Lu Ning didn't pay attention to her, speaking of which, now glancing at Li Yanniang's beautiful figure in snow-white clothes and pants, especially under the snow-white trousers, her jade feet embroidered shoes, it made people feel strange in their hearts.

"Lord Headquarters!" Far away, Shopkeeper Qiu was already busy getting up and saluting, he is now Lu Ning's interpreter and a representative of the people.

He was under another straw hut, handing out snacks to the children.

However, every child has to line up and use the Chinese dialect to ask for snacks and salute and thank you.

In fact, the sugar caravan arrived yesterday with several professors from the Red Tiger Army, who will set up a school in this Wu'e Prefecture to teach the Central Plains language.

When he first came to Wu'e and saw the contiguous fertile farmland, Lu Ning had already decided that if the conditions permitted, he would use this Wu'e Prefecture as a border military town, and the southern border line would be greatly moved south.

If he frees up his hands in the future and comes to the southern sea, then he will truly solve the Annan issue.

Moreover, moving the border line to Wu'e and truly effectively controlling this land will be the changes of the future generations, but it is very likely that the southern Xinjiang border will not be the same as the future generations.

Even as Li Yanniang proposed, Lu Ning was also pondering whether to immigrate all the military dependents of the Red Tiger Army to Wu'e Prefecture.

In Wu'e Tucheng, there are not many local people, and the surrounding villages have just undergone a great change and have been slaughtered, but in fact, the arable land is enough for the Red Tiger Army to come here.

But come to think of it, forget it, the Red Tiger Army's goal is not just a small northern part of Annan.

He is preparing to go south in the future, from the port of Jiaozhou, the port of Champa to Malacca, and can control a series of ports as a sphere of influence, mainly to escort the caravan of his country, and at the same time import goods to the local area, plunder resources, during this period, there will inevitably be various conflicts, and even wars with Sri Buddha, Chenla and other sea and land powers, the Red Tiger Army, will be the protagonist of the landing war in this series of conflicts.

nested in a small Wu'e land, that's still forget it.

In the future, the Red Tiger Army is also preparing to be stationed in a port with a better environment in the South China Sea and move its military dependents there, so these military dependents have just settled in Daozhou, and they will have to toss again in the middle of the way, which will be too hurtful.

This Wu'e land, the deserted land is really good, and it is feasible to relocate some people from the Yongzhou native tribes to reclaim it.

But first of all, it's still about being here and really getting your footing.
