Chapter 518: The Western Regions and the Grasslands
Yizhou, Chengdu, Prefecture Pastoral Mansion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zhou Fan sat there quietly, listening to Zhang Song's report below.
It has been a year since Zhou Fan left Yizhou, and the affairs of Yizhou during this period were basically handled by Zhang Song, a different Yizhou.
And now that Zhou Fan has returned to Yizhou, these affairs are naturally going to return to himself, so he must also learn about the situation in Yizhou in the past year from Zhang Song.
"Yes, that's good! Ziqiao has worked hard this year. Zhou Fan nodded with satisfaction.
This Yizhou of & pig & pig & island & novel {}. {zhuzhu} {dao}. {} has been laid a good foundation by Zhou Fan before, so there is nothing too big, and this Zhang Song is indeed quite talented, so it is appropriate to describe Yizhou with the four words of prosperity in the past year.
"The lord has a good reputation, these are all loose things." Zhang Song's somewhat ugly face barely squeezed out a smile and said, and he was also relieved in his heart.
To tell the truth, this kind of thing of judging people by their appearance exists at any time, with his Zhang Song's honor, if he doesn't have the ability to never forget, I'm afraid it is; can't even be a small official, let alone become a Yizhou don't fight now.
And all this was brought to him by Zhou Fan, it was Zhou Fan's words at the beginning, that he was able to get the former Yizhou Mu, that is, Zhou Fan's father Zhou Yi's reuse, and now, Zhou Fan is even more desperate, let him become Yizhou Don't, such a promotion grace, Zhang Song is really unforgettable.
It is precisely because of this that he has also been working diligently in the past year, and he often visits Zhou Yi and Lu Zhi for advice when he encounters any major things, and he does not dare to slack off at all, for fear of doing something wrong and disappointing Zhou Fan.
And now that Zhou Fan can affirm it, the hard work of this year is worth it.
"Ziqiao, how are the preparations for my wedding?" Zhou Fan asked, the most important thing for him now is not to deal with any government affairs. It's about getting the most important thing in your life right first.
"The lord can rest assured, Songdu has been arranged, and the lord only needs to be the groom's official with peace of mind." Zhang Song smiled and said.
The news of Zhou Fan's wedding has already been spread, and now the whole of Chengdu is boiling.
Their state pastor is finally getting married, which is definitely the biggest thing in their Yizhou, so the people of Chengdu are all dressed up and celebrated, and the scene is no worse than the New Year.
And this time, Zhou Fan is going to marry five beautiful daughters-in-law at one time. This situation alone is enough to make people talk about it.
Zhou Fan smiled and didn't say anything, he was relieved to be the groom's officer, how could this be.
This is one of the major events in Zhou Fan's life, how can he be so lazy, and this big wedding has dragged on for so long for various reasons, Zhou Fan also feels a little guilty about his daughters, so he naturally wants to find a way to compensate them.
Some basic things of the wedding, Zhou Fan handed over to Zhang Song to do. These things only need to rely on manpower and material resources, which are very simple, but there are some other things that can only be done by Zhou Fan himself.
"My lord. One more thing. Zhang Song said: "The lord asked people to search for large animals before, and there are some gains this year, so do you want to go and take a look?" ”
As for Zhou Fan's search for large animals, it has always existed. Almost every citizen in Yizhou knows this.
Therefore, as long as the people of Yizhou encounter any larger or more peculiar animals, if they have enough ability. Then catch it yourself, if you don't have the ability, then you can also report it to the government, and you can get a lot of money when the time comes.
It's just that Cheng Yu has always been responsible for this matter before, and now that Cheng Yu has gone to Chang'an, this matter naturally falls on Zhang Song.
"Oh, another harvest? I'll hear what they are. Zhou Fan was also interested.
Saying that, Zhou Fan's mind was also invested in the system, looking at the 17 points of experience, which means that Zhou Fan has captured seventeen kinds of third-level animals, and he still needs 13 kinds of third-level animals to be able to upgrade the system to level four.
For this matter, Zhou Fan has never neglected it, but it is too difficult to collect all, especially in the territory of Dahan, it is really difficult to collect thirty kinds of third-level animals, and if you want to collect them, Zhou Fan is afraid that she has to explore in a broader area.
It is precisely because of this that it was not until Zhou Fan subdued the Nanban that there was a new harvest in the depths of the Nanban, and those barbarian elephants, rhinoceros, and mountain gorillas are examples.
And now that Zhou Fan has taken Liangzhou and the Qiang people, he also has a new goal.
Zhou Fan had already asked the Qiang King to win to find it on the grassland where they lived, and once there was a harvest, he would send someone to Yizhou.
At the same time, Zhou Fan also asked Ma Teng to send a caravan to the Western Regions.
In the first year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to fight against the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wanted to unite the Dayue clan in the Western Regions, so he sent Zhang Qian as an envoy.
And Zhang Qian experienced many difficulties, only then did he reach the Dayue clan, and then was captured by the Xiongnu on the way back, and only fled back to the Han Dynasty a year later, and told Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in detail about the situation in the Western Regions.
And I am afraid that even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty himself did not expect that Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions this time did not let him unite with the Dayue clan to fight against the Xiongnu, but added his understanding of the Western Regions, deepened the exchanges between the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions, and opened up the famous "Silk Road" in later generations.
After Zhang Qian opened up the Western Regions, there was an endless stream of envoys sent by the Han Dynasty to various parts of the Western Regions and envoys sent to the Han Dynasty by various countries in the Western Regions, and merchants of various ethnic groups also frequently traveled between the interior and the Western Regions. In order to ensure the safety and smoothness of the Silk Road connecting the East and the West, the Han Dynasty government set up an envoy in 101 BC and led hundreds of soldiers to accumulate grain in the fields and valleys in the area of Luntai and Qu Plough to supply the envoys to the Western Regions. The envoy was the first official sent by the Han Dynasty government to the Western Regions.
In 60 B.C., in order to manage the unified Western Regions, the Han Dynasty established the Western Regions Protectorate in Wulei City, and the Western Regions became an inseparable part of China's territory.
It's just that today, the connection between the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions is becoming less and less, and it is gradually breaking away from the rule of the Han Dynasty.
Zhou Fan's trip asked Ma Teng to send a caravan to the Western Regions, firstly, he naturally wanted to harvest some animals from the Western Regions, and at the same time reopen trade between the two places, which was also to prepare for the future.
Now that someone is helping to continue searching for third-level animals in the Northern Prairie of the Western Regions, I believe that the progress of Zhou Fan's upgrade system can also be greatly accelerated. (To be continued......)
