Section 1059 Looms(1)

On the night of Hehuang in late autumn, the frost has risen and the temperature has dropped below zero.

Countless people could only huddle together shivering, warming themselves by the embers of a few fires.

There was less than a mouthful of food, even the insects in the camp had been caught, and the fish and shrimp in the stream had been eaten.

Even the grass roots in the field were dug up and gnawed.

As for the livestock brought?

It has already been eaten up, and even the horses of the Yue clan have been almost eaten.

And that's not the worst, it's nothing worse than low morale and a gradual descent into despair and madness.

These days, people have started to commit suicide.

In the beginning, it was only sporadic appearances.

But gradually it became more and more intense.

Even the nobles, too, joined in and committed suicide with them!

Needless to say, that's the most shocking!

Ji Si looked at a corpse in front of him with red eyes, this person was one of his right-hand men in his life, and he was also the leader of a medium clan in the Yue Clan.

However, he is now dead.

The cause of death was suicide!

After killing his wife, he drew his sword and killed himself.

The reason, needless to say—because of despair, the incomparable despair of the prospect of war!

He knows, what are the consequences of defeat?

All are going to die!

Because the Han never forgive the betrayer!

Especially the leader of the betrayers, the first evil will be punished, once it falls into the hands of the Han people, the whole family will die, and the whole clan will become slaves, and they will never be able to turn over!

"Carry it down, let's bury it......" Jisi sighed weakly, and then looked into the distance.

At this time, he suddenly saw that in the dark and cold night, there seemed to be a sparkling fire, which was coming towards him.

"What's the situation?" He was about to take someone to investigate, when he heard shouts of killing all over the mountains, sounding from all directions.

Countless Qiang people, armed with stones, wooden sticks, bronze and even arrows picked up from the battlefield, shouted and rushed over.

With a spirit that was a hundred times more fanatical than when they attacked Ling Jucheng at the beginning, everyone rushed into the unsuspecting Yueshi camp like a wolf.

Then, like wild beasts, they slaughtered wantonly, venting all the anger and resentment that they had held back for countless days on the Yueshi people.

…………………………

In Chang'an at the beginning of September, the cold wind began to howl.

Merchants from Yanmen and Shangjun came into the city in an endless stream, and they transported truckloads of wool, wool and cashmere to Chang'an.

It was robbed in an instant.

There is no way, as soon as the weather is cold, the sales of wool products will be opened instantly.

Aristocrats, wealthy merchants, and landlords rushed to buy them one after another.

Even the middle-class families in Chang'an City will choose to save money to buy a wool horse, and then sew a new dress for their children as a New Year's sacrifice to their ancestors.

And Zhang Yue also got a batch of wool.

There are more than 10,000 horses, which is the tribute of various departments in Monan this year.

One thing that has to be said is that the rise of the wool trade in Mo Nan has made the economy of Mo Nan develop rapidly.

For the first time in their lives, the herdsmen of the various tribes of Wuheng discovered that in addition to protecting them, the father of the Han Dynasty could also let them eat their stomachs!

Loyalty and centripetal force are rapidly rising and constantly rising.

After all, the people who lead the bow are mothers if they have milk!

What's more, they also need the Han family's salt and iron, tea, medicinal herbs, especially the seafood crockpot that can protect the fetus.

Dasi Nong then became the first Han dynasty to go deep into the various ministries of Monan and establish an official office for effective rule and control.

For this, Sang Hongyang specially thanked Zhang Yue several times.

Also smiling is Shangguan Ji, thanks to Zhang Yue's blessing, now the Taifu Yamen has planned to march into the Monan grassland in a big way after the year, and the first batch of plans is ten large pastures!

And if this plan is successful, then it is possible for the Taifu Yamen to regain the vigor of its heyday, punch too often, kick the guards, and sit on an equal footing with Dasi Nong!

And the various departments of Wuheng are naturally very interesting.

No, before the New Year, all the arrears of tribute for this year and the past few years will be sent, including principal and interest.

A large number of cattle, sheep and livestock as well as gold and precious jade were also delivered, including this batch of wool.

When Zhang Yue learned about it, he intercepted it and used this batch of wool for his army's winter clothes.

Therefore, these wool materials were handed over to Shaofu, and the military clothes were made from the East Weaving Room as the underwear of the Han cavalry, in preparation for a possible expedition.

At this moment, Zhang Yue was standing in the workshop of the East Weaving Room, watching the hundreds of female workers, under the supervision of the supervisors and officials, rushing to work in a nervous and orderly manner.

He was accompanied by the members of the entire Shaofu Secretary.

Gongsun Yi and six other Shaofu Cheng.

"The East Weaving Room is already so magnificent, what should the West Weaving Room be?" Zhang Yue looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but praise.

The workshop in front of him was just one under the East Weaving Room.

In addition, there are seven or eight workshops of this scale, belonging to the East Weaving Room, all over the Miyagi and beyond.

The total number of employees may already exceed three thousand!

And the scale of the West Weaving Room is several times that of the East Weaving Room!

Together, these two yamen supplied the imperial family, the bureaucracy, and the army with all the clothing, accessories, ribbons, and banners they needed.

It can be called the largest textile manufacturing base of human beings before the Common Era.

Especially in the western weaving room, the vests have been opened to Luoyang, Linzi, Pengcheng, Peixian, and Fengxian.

Listening to Zhang Yue's praise, Gongsun Yi also raised his head proudly, and said: "General Miao Zan, however, the Shaofu East and West Weaving Room is indeed the most spectacular place in the world!" ”

Thinking of the legend of this former nephew, who is now a high-ranking and powerful man in the Han family, Gongsun Yi couldn't help but say: "Xiaguan, I want to ask the general for a way to weave the east and west......

Xinfeng Workshop Garden, Xinfeng's wheat fields, and now a steady stream of wool from Yanmen and Shangjun to Chang'an and Kanto are all the handiwork of this Yingyang general.

In folklore, the Eagle Yang General Zhang Chiyou has evolved from a god general under the command of the soldier master Chiyou to the incarnation of the soldier master, at least the existence of the general under the command of the soldier master.

It's really a bug that you are born to know, Wen can set the state, and Wu can destroy the country!

The scope of his part-time work has spread from literature, military, medical care, and agriculture to craftsmen and technology.

Not to mention, now on the side of the Wei River in Xinfeng, the dozen or so giants that are being built and built, cut off the river, and use them for their own huge workshops, have made Chang'an and the outside of Chang'an full of discussions.

Therefore, Gongsun Yi didn't care about face, and directly bowed: "Please also ask the general to give you one or two textile skills!" ”

As long as you can get the art of weaving from this person, improve the current textile efficiency.

Gongsun knew that this would allow him to stabilize his current position and not be eliminated by rising stars!

In the Han family, even if the official is Jiuqing and Sangong, he also wants political achievements!

If there is no political achievement, there must be a backstage.

Neither of these, just wait to bow and step down!
