The public altar that Zhang Yuan asked Zhang Lu to build is actually a wooden shelf for these wooden boxes, but there are too many dead people, and this wooden shelf is correspondingly taller, and the quality must be passed, once it collapses, it will be disrespectful to the deceased, and it will definitely be counterproductive at that time.

Sima Xiangru even began to write a letter for this public sacrifice, and he didn't even go out of the city to greet Zhang Yuan and his party.

The scene of the public sacrifice of 10,000 people, coupled with his poem, is much more famous than the previous "Oracle", after all, there are too many illiterate people in this era, and the main purpose of Sima Xiangru writing the proclamation is to show Liu Che.

And this time not only can Liu Che see it, but also let tens of thousands of people hear it.

For this reason, Zhang Yuan also made an iron loudspeaker for Sima Xiangru, which can be regarded as repaying Sima Xiangru for his great help this time.

A public sacrifice is complete with a text.

In the three days, in addition to helping Sima Xiangru make a loudspeaker, Zhang Yuan spent the rest of his time supervising the construction of the public altar, originally Zhang Lu was going to arrange for those people to return to their hometowns, but when they learned about the public altar, they were determined to stay here for a few more days.

A few days of food consumption made Zhang Lu's heart drop a piece of meat.

Zhang Yuan saw that Zhang Lu was pitiful, and dragged him to the Huang family's warehouse in Jiangzhou City, and moved the entire warehouse of grain with the talisman in hand.

In this incident, Liu Che and Tang Meng and a group of Bashu officials were infamy, and the people bore the pain of losing their loved ones, only the Huang family hid behind it and took the biggest advantage, Zhang Yuan did this to show Liu Che.

Each party has to pay some price to be able to balance, there is no reason why others are suffering, you Huang has been making money.

"Honorable envoy, this public altar has been built, the wooden boxes belonging to the people of Ba County have all been placed on the altar, and the sacrifices and witches have been prepared."

Zhang Yuan looked at the sky and said with a sigh.

"It's time to find a way back for these unjust souls."

The next day, all the officials washed themselves cleanly, burned incense on an empty stomach, Sima Xiangru put on a big black robe, and Zhang Yuan also handed it over to him today.

As for the etiquette of the Great Han, anyone present knew more than Zhang Yuan.

The sky gradually brightened, Sima Xiangru held a talisman in one hand and a horn in the other, looking extremely strange, but no one dared to speak.

"The system of the husband and the holy king is also worshipped: if the law is applied to the people, it will be worshipped if it is used for death and hard work, it will be worshiped if it is determined by labor, it will be worshiped if it can resist the great trouble, and it will be worshiped if it can defend the great trouble.

Ding Hai in the ninth month of Bingwu, degraded to the ceremony, wept blood and entangled his heart, remembered the wounds of the deceased, and mourned the widows and widows of women and children..."

Sima Xiangru jumped and jumped on the high platform and recited a lot of words that Zhang Yuan didn't understand, and then a dancing god came out, singing and dancing there, and all the rituals in the middle were all gone, and it was the turn of the kneeling people to start crying.

Zhang Yuan looked at the piles of wooden boxes, and sincerely shed a few tears for these dead people.

By the time the sun was about to set, the festival was finally over.

I have to say that the effect of this is very good, in front of a group of people who believe in ghosts and gods, their faith is confirmed, and their deceased relatives are given a spiritual home.

The living should be self-reliant, and the dead should rest in peace.

Zhang Yuan has no way of knowing the situation between Shu County and Guanghan County, but it seems that Ba County has almost dealt with it now. Free Chinese

In fact, this day's sacrifice was very unruly, Zhang Yuan thought about it and did it. It is more important than anything else to make the living feel that the dead are meaningful.

The ancients were indifferent to death, and many people could choose to end their lives if necessary.

Now if Liu Che is captured by the Huns, and the Huns let the Han officials commit suicide in exchange for Liu Che's life, Zhang Yuan estimates that 80% of the people will choose to commit suicide.

Otherwise, during the Three Kingdoms period, decades after the fall of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were still people who were grateful for the kindness of the Han Dynasty and were willing to die for the Han Dynasty.

"Pedestrian order, when are we going to go to the country of Yelang?"

Huo Zhong didn't know who urged him to come to ask about Zhang Yuan's envoy Yelang on such a winter day.

Zhang Yuan smiled, if he didn't set off from Jiangzhou for a day, Tang Meng would not be able to put pressure on Yelang Country for a day, and the matter of road construction and mining would have to be delayed, and the iron ore of the Han Dynasty was enough for Liu Che to replace all the weapons of his team with carbon steel, and it was only the Huang clan who was in a hurry.

Buying iron ore from Zhuo's is definitely more profitable than digging it yourself.

The royal family does business with others, it has always been a rated number, and Liu Che does not care how much profit you have.

When he set a number, even if you lose money, you have to get things done, and as for how money circulates and grows, I think these emperors haven't figured out what is going on.

"It's the New Year soon, everyone relaxes and relaxes for a good year, and then arranges the envoy after the year."

Huo Zhong's face was a little ugly, but he still answered the promise and retreated.

Li Jian was also in the room at this moment, and when he saw Huo Zhong like this, he asked Zhang Yuan with a sad face.

"Ah Yuan, I'm afraid this will make the people above unpleasant."

Zhang Yuan took a sip of strong tea and said with a smile.

"Brother Li, haven't you understood, everyone knows what happened, only I was kept in the dark.

That's fine, the so-called ignorant are not guilty, and since no one wants to tell me these things, then I will pretend not to know.

If you think about it, I don't know anything, even if this pressure goes down layer by layer, it can't fall on my shoulders. ”

Zhang Yuan is very relaxed now, judging from the daily rising figures in the task, Liu Che's demand for steel is getting bigger and bigger.

The longer Zhang Yuan delayed, the greater the loss of the Huang family, the winter in the southwest was terrible cold in some places, but some places were like spring, what the environment of the iron mine was, Zhang Yuan had no way of knowing.

The only thing that is certain is that when the Huang clan's greed cannot be suppressed, they will go to the rulers of those tribes in Yelang Country themselves and ask them to allow them to recruit the local people.

If the Huang family sets a precedent for this kind of thing, when Zhang Yuan goes to Yelang Kingdom, the opposition will be much smaller, and things will go smoothly, and the mission will be ended as soon as possible.

"Ah Yuan, you still think about it for a long time, if those people of the Huang clan know that you have this heavy intention, they will definitely grit their teeth in anger."

"Hahaha."

It must be a very happy thing to let the bad guys eat up.
