Chapter 243: Settling In
Seeing that they were eating so happily, Mo Qian let them cook dozens of kilograms of rice.
There was no oil and water, and the rice was served with pickles, and they actually ate the feeling of high-class cuisine.
In the past days, they thought that they were in dire straits, and Mo Poor was just giving them food, and they showed satisfied expressions one by one.
As far as Mo Qian knows, the staple food of the Japanese and ancient farmers is wheat and radish, although rice has to be tributed, but it is not completely uneaten, and those who have not eaten are children or young people, and basically they have tasted it at least a few times in their lives, especially in the Azuchi Momoyama era, there will be rice to eat during military service.
But the group said they had never even seen cooked rice.
After asking, Mo Qian learned that most of their staple food is taro and beans, and mixing all kinds of beans together to make them cooked, that is one meal, and even buckwheat is eaten less.
As for rice, it is neither affordable nor allowed to be eaten.
Productivity was at least 1,000 years ago.
At that time, although Niyori learned technology and systems from the Sui and Tang dynasties, most of the areas were ghost lands, and only a few core areas such as Heiankyo had made great progress.
So in other remote areas, there are still many farmers who are so miserable.
"Delicious!"
"It's delicious!"
After the second bowl of rice with sauerkraut, their taste buds seemed to be opened to a new world.
The soft and glutinous aroma of rice, coupled with a slight springy teeth, made them feel that they had no regrets in this life.
With sauerkraut, it seems that a chemical reaction has been created, and the complex taste makes their brains frantically secrete hormones of happiness.
Although sauerkraut is just sauerkraut, the craftsmanship is not known to be higher than in ancient times.
Modern people like to eat occasionally, not to mention that this is something that Gou Ye himself often eats, and the impact on the taste buds of these people who have never eaten good things is irresistible.
"Woo woo woo ......"
"I was able to eat such a good thing. ”
"Are we dead?"
"Even if you kill me now, it's worth it. ”
The group of Tuqi people cried and began to babble nonsense.
Mo Qian could see that they were very insecure, after all, everything was like a dream.
So he said, "No one will kill you, from now on, you will work for me, you will be able to eat rice every day, and ......."
"What!"
"Eat this in the future?"
"How is that possible? Is all this rice for us to eat?"
The Tuqi people are going crazy, what is the concept of eating rice all at once? This is already the most beautiful day they can imagine.
The excitement of this group of people made Mo Qian swallow the second half of his words.
Originally, I wanted to say that I would add some more food, but seeing that they are so easily satisfied, then forget it and talk about it later.
Although this group of people has no potential, and at most they can do more physical work on the island, there is still a benefit, that is, it is really easy to feed.
If it was a modern employee who only eats every day, it would have rebelled a long time ago.
And these people are very happy when they have food, and there is no abuse when the sense of happiness is so high.
The rice sent by Gou Ye is enough to support half a year, and the rice is not expensive, this thing will be open to eat in the future, and it will never be possible to eat him poor.
What's more, there is so much open space on the island, you can buy some rice seedlings, wheat seeds, and even all kinds of vegetables for them to grow by themselves, and it is no problem to be self-sufficient.
If you think about it carefully, Mo Poor almost picked up 300 people for nothing.
He ordered a hundred adaptive seeds online, and then beckoned the two scholars to come over.
The two scholars had eaten normally, felt a lot more relieved, and were no longer so worried.
The Tuqi people felt that giving them food was to kill them, and it was definitely them doing extremely dangerous work, otherwise how could they be so good to them?
These two scholars were smarter, and when they saw this act of reassuring the people like opening a warehouse and releasing grain, they knew that Mo Qian would not kill them, but just let them live and work in peace and contentment on this island.
It can be seen that the concepts and perceptions of the two countries on the concept of 'people' are diametrically opposed.
"Immortal, what do you command?" the two scholars made a mockery.
Mo Qian smiled and said, "Huh, I'm going to become an immortal?"
The two scholars were embarrassed, but they still licked their heads and said: "The great immortal has opened up a realm and enslaved many magic weapons, so he is naturally a person among the immortals." ”
"Okay, they just lick it, you two have read, just call me boss. Mo Qian said.
"Yes...... Boss. The two scholars saluted again.
"Which dynasty and generation are you?" asked Mo Qiao.
"Our brothers are all from Yaoshan in Xingzhou, and the name of the dynasty is Zhou, and the name of the year is Xiande. The older scholar said.
This speech is very comfortable and clear, Mo Qian nodded and said, "Zhou, is it the empress?"
The two scholars glanced at each other and said, "You should be talking about Wu Zhou, right?" Boss, you may not be very clear in the sky...... Datang has been dead for fifty years. ”
Mo Qian's thoughts turned sharply, what? Datang is dead?
"Oh, Hou Zhou, that's right...... Xiande, that's Chai Rong, right?"
The two scholars hesitated for a moment, and finally the young one said: "Today's surname is Guo ...... The saint is the son of Taizu...... But he treated his biological father with the courtesy of his uncle, and never named his brother as the king, nor did he make the Chai clan a royal ......"
Before he finished speaking, the older scholar glared at his younger brother, and then said: "The boss is as wise as a torch, and the Tao is His Majesty's ancestral surname.
“...... Brother taught a lesson. The younger brother trembled and did not dare to speak.
Mo Qian touched his Adam's apple, a little embarrassed.
Although the members of the society must be familiar with history, there is no need to study history, Chai Rong is indeed the name of later historians, at that time he was indeed called Guo Rong, no one dares to say that the Chai family is a royal family, saying that the Chai family has the right to inherit is not looking for death? Only Guo Rong's own son is.
If you think about it carefully, calling his ancestral surname is nothing more than the legitimacy of the Zhao Song Dynasty in order to weaken his rule, thereby strengthening the legitimacy of the Zhao Song Dynasty in disguise. That is: Chai can be substituted for Guo, and Zhao can also be substituted for Chai.
He, a modern person, has a different mode of thinking, even if he is familiar with history, he can't compare with these two real ancients, and he only opened his mouth two sentences, and he committed the 'taboo of the dynasty'.
"The Zhou in your mouth has been dead for more than a thousand years. In order to hide his embarrassment, Mo Qian said while drinking water.
"Yes...... We have already been told before, when the country is called blue and white. The older scholar said.
"Poof!" Mo Qian squirted out a mouthful of water, and hurriedly said, "No! No! Don't talk nonsense!"
Just as Tong Moqiao called Guo Rong Chai Rong from a modern perspective, these two ancients also stood in their perspective and understood the Blue and White Society as a generation of imperial dynasties.
Come to think of it, the Blue and White Society does not allow them to walk around, they can only live in the territory of the Blue and White Society, let them work, and give them living security, isn't it just in Anmin?
And the 'national strength' is so strong, and the land is vast, even if it is not the 'Immortal Dynasty', it must be a kingdom.
Seeing that Mo Qian reacted so much, the two scholars turned pale, and hurriedly said: "The villain has just arrived, I don't know what taboo he has committed, and I ask for forgiveness...... Be considerate of the ignorance of the villain. ”
Mo Qian sighed: "It's okay, it's okay, it's not so taboo, in short, the Blue and White Society is not the dynasty you know, and you can't go back to the Central Plains, from now on, you can live here in peace, and your food, clothing, housing and transportation are guaranteed." Seeing that you have no power to restrain the chickens, I will not count on you to farm the land, but I will take care of these Tuqi people, and take them to reclaim a wasteland first, and enclose a manor, and in addition to the few seeds I let you plant, I will also provide you with traditional crops, so that you can be self-sufficient......"
"Of course, I also have additional requirements for you, that is, to learn, first give me a thorough understanding of modern Chinese characters, and then I will give you the manuals of these machines to study. I don't need you to know it, but I know why it is so that I can use it and look at the thermometer. ”
The two scholars were overjoyed, isn't this just being an official? It may not be very formal, but they are already content.
They thought they were going to work with that group of savages, and secretly thought that if they had read books in vain in this life, they would still be able to be a small official.
It's great to have a real job, but also to read and study.
It seems that this Blue and White Dynasty is still very kind to readers.
Seeing that they bowed their heads and snickered with joy, and a little carried away, Mo Qian shook his head secretly. It can only be said that the short man is tall, these two scholars are useless, but it should still be possible to manage this one-third of an acre.
"I'll give you another three hours, get here and go to the headquarters to find me, you still have a pet companion who hasn't received it. Gou Ye smoked a cigarette for a long time next to him, and said suddenly.
Mo Qian was stunned and said, "What? and pets?"
