Chapter 293: Black Desert

In the Karakum Desert, the winter wind swept through the sea of sand, with a little bleakness. The brown sand and gravel also fluttered wantonly under the cold wind, revealing an inexplicable desolation.

It is also in the Karakum Desert, full of brown-black rocks. When the sand melts, it turns black-brown. With an area of 350,000 square kilometres, it is the fourth largest desert in the world.

And because the Karakum Canal was not built in this era, there were fewer green states in the desert. Many places, until now, have been no man's land. If you don't have a guide, it's easy to get lost in the desert.

Only the Amu Darya, Tezhan River, Murghab and other river basins have a green state distribution, and life survives.

At this time, if you look down from a high place, you will find patches of white in the vast sea of sand. It's like fainted milk, and it's very eye-catching.

This is the Green State!

It's just that because of the winter, the green oasis, which are more abundant in water vapor, are covered with thick snow. So much so that it all looked white.

The city of Malu is located in the lower reaches of the Jeru River, and it is no exception covered in heavy snow. Large areas of grass and trees were bent and crushed by the snow.

Such a season should have been a time when everything was silent! But outside the city, some children are playing unexpectedly. They were turning their heads in the snow and piling up snowmen that were not pretty, but rather interesting.

Many people also joined in the fun, piling up many snowmen with different postures and vivid snowmen.

The Jielu River, which had already entered the dry period, was covered with a thick layer of ice. It is covered with a thick layer of snow and paved plain into a broad road. Many of the people who lived nearby walked on it. Pick up the broccoli you grow and go to the city to buy and sell.

However, the number of people was very small, and all of them were in a hurry, as if they could not stand the cold.

Yarulda, from the village of Evezir in Malu County, picked up her home-grown broccoli and went into the city to buy it. Because of the autumn days, the cathars conquered Malu County. As a result, the people around Malu County fled to the point where none of them survived.

In addition, the cathars killed a group of landlords, burned down the slaves, and divided the fields, cattle and sheep and pastures, so that their lives were more hopeful.

Even after the cathars left, the landlords took back the fields. But he didn't dare to criticize them as hard as before, so life was not so hard compared to before.

Good luck in Jarurda! His master fled to the city and hid before the cathar company. Later, although he came back to collect rent, he did not dare to be too persecuted. And because the people who farm the land and herd the sheep have gone seventy-seven, eighty-eight, so they also specially sent a few acres of land for him to cultivate independently.

This broccoli is the tent vegetable he planted in the tent from the method passed down from Amu City.

In fact, this is the out-of-season vegetable of later generations. It's just that there was no plastic film in this era, so it had to be replaced by tents. And make more windows on the top, separated by clear glass.

It's just that this glass is not selling low! It was impossible to buy Yarulda, so he got some from the houses of the landlords who had escaped. Anyway, there was no one inside, and many villagers went in to find something valuable.

He was afraid that the landlords would take revenge on him when they returned. Therefore, when others were scrambling, he suppressed the greed in his heart.

But it's not enough to just put on glass. Because tent vegetables must meet the two indispensable conditions of light and heat. So Jaruda also burned some coals in the tent to increase the temperature.

Of course, this was also obtained from the landlords' families. It's just that he is slow, and the coals have long been looted. Therefore, he dismantled the doors, tables and chairs of the landlords' houses and used them to burn them into coals.

But the effect, he was not satisfied. Because of the coals burned by these furniture, there is a lot of smoke. Got into the tent and smoked a few of his vegetables to death. It made him feel distressed.

If he knew that the burned furniture could make him worry about food and clothing for several years, he would probably die of distress.

After playing with it like this, the broccoli was finally planted. After all these busy days, I finally got the result. Therefore, he also felt very relaxed with the two heavy burdens.

"Yikes! Shopkeeper Misussippi, why are you playing with snow here? Seeing the broccoli collector, Yarulda asked aloud.

"Ahh It's Jarrda! Misousipi heard the question, and then responded: "Zhang's leather goods store in the city said that it was going to make some kind of snowman Dabi." And to those who are favored by him, there is a reward of ten thousand dinars. ”。

"Oh? And such strange things? Jaruda was surprised.

In the land of Malu, there is heavy snow every winter. But I have never heard of any snowman competition. So at first glance, it sounds really novel.

"Hey! This Zhang's leather goods store is not bad for money. I heard that his father was the great Diwan of the north. It's just that he is interested in the way of doing business, so he abandons the way of becoming an official.

Now Zhang's leather goods store is also in our city, Zhang Luo is open. In order to let everyone know about their business house, they took such a high reward and did a big competition with Rausch Snowman. Misussibi said as she finished building a snowman. After carving a few Persian characters on it, he smiled embarrassedly at Yarulda and begged, "Why don't you move the land." I've enclosed this place, and I've built a lot of snowmen. ”。

Only then did Jaruda notice that the open space around her was already full of people with masters. The frozen Jielu River has not been left behind.

"What about me?" , Jarurda looked at Misusippi's busy work and explored.

"Wait! I'll pile up a few more, and we'll go back to the city. With that, Misoussibi turned her fat body extremely fast, and she quickly built a snowman.

It's okay to stand anyway!

Jaruda picked up broccoli and found a clearing to build a snowman. His hands are still relatively skillful! In the past, when he was a slave, he often helped the young master of the master's family and build a snowman for fun. So in a short time, two ingenious-looking snowmen were built.

At this time, Misussibi was also busy. With a shout, he led Arulda into the city.

Because it was discussed a long time ago, the process of selling vegetables was very short and smooth. And Misusibi also instructed him to pick more broccoli to sell tomorrow.

Because it was rumored that eating more broccoli would help you live a long life, the rich families in the city especially favored broccoli. Coupled with the new way of eating created by Lee Seung-ji himself, it tastes excellent.

Let the rich families in Malu City also follow suit.

Even though Malu and the governor of Khorasan, Li Chengji, were hostile, they did not hinder people-to-people exchanges. Even if the county guard of Malu County wanted to stop it, he couldn't.
