PS: This chapter is so tangled, there are a lot of things that need to be explained, but I'm afraid it's too cumbersome, delete and reduce!

Sour! Sticky! It was also filled with a taste that Zhao Chen couldn't say at all, in short, it was a mouthful, Zhao Chen's stomach couldn't help churning, and after enduring it for a long time, Zhao Chen couldn't help but spit it out, and swallowed it hard under the gaze of the old man and Cheng Chumo.

"What does this taste like?" Seeing Zhao Chen swallowing, the expression on his face suddenly relaxed, and he asked with a smile.

"Good!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he smiled at the old man, and as he spoke, he picked up a silver bowl next to him, no matter what kind of soup was in it, he took it and poured it down.

The taste in his mouth was too rushing, if he didn't take the soup in time, Zhao Chen estimated that the next moment he would spit it out in front of the old man.

Seeing this, Cheng Chumo on the side looked down at the food in front of him, and finally couldn't hold back the hunger in his stomach, followed Zhao Chen's example, picked up one of the pieces of black food, and put it into his mouth as soon as he stretched out his hand.

Then, Cheng Chumo's expression was slightly stunned, and the next moment he smiled at the old man opposite, quickly picked up the silver bowl in front of him, and poured half a bowl of soup in one bite.

When Zhao Chen looked back, he saw Cheng Chumo glaring at him with a resentful gaze, Zhao Chen looked at the plate in front of Cheng Chumo, and shrugged his shoulders at Cheng Chumo very innocently.

No matter how hungry he is, he doesn't dare to eat anymore, even if he is weak and wrong, Zhao Chen doesn't want to try it anymore, this kind of taste, he doesn't want to try it again in his life!

The old man also knew that such food was not suitable for the taste of the Central Plains people at all, so when he saw Zhao Chen and Cheng Chumo, they no longer used chopsticks, and naturally they were no longer reluctant.

The old man understands the Central Plains dialect, communication is not a problem, through the old man's mouth, Zhao Chen knows that the old man's clan is Baiyue, that is, the Central Plains people often say that the wingman.

And this place is the Nanfu Prefecture established by Li Yuan in the fourth year of Wude, taking advantage of the great chaos in Lingnan, when the wealthy Chen Longshu entered Beijing to present his watch, that is, Xinyi City, Guangdong in later generations.

The village where they are at the moment is called Qingxiyuan, which is the title of the village of the bureaucrats, in the whole Nanfuzhou, there are many large and small walls, each of which has a chief or Du Lao, that is, the elder of the village, and the old man in front of him is the old man of Qingxi Yuan.

In the final analysis, it was because of the problem of naturalization of the slang bureaucrats under Emperor Wen during the opening of the previous dynasty, and because of this naturalization, the interests of the Lingnan slang bureaucrats were angered at once.

Therefore, in the tenth year of the emperor's reign, the chieftains of Lingnan formed an alliance, led by Wang Zhongxuan, and quickly occupied Guangzhou. In the end, although the army was defeated, the slang chieftain Wang Zhongxuan and Chen Fozhi, who represented the chieftain of the bureaucrats, were beheaded one after another, but since then, Lingnan has also completely fallen into endless war.

In the fourth year of Wude, Chen Fozhi's son Chen Longshu returned to the Tang Dynasty, and Li Yuan established Nanfu here in Xinyi and appointed Chen Longshu as the first assassin of Nanfuzhou.

Nanfu was originally the power of the Chen family, but since the opening of the emperor ten years, Chen Fozhi was defeated and killed, and the Chen family's power in Nanfu was quickly replaced by the bureaucratic Tan Dian.

Although Chen Longshu said that he had the support of Datang this time and returned to Nanfuzhou, however, it was not what it used to be, and Datang was too busy to take care of himself, so it was impossible to give Chen Longshu a single soldier.

Today's Southern Fuzhou is intertwined with forces, and the surrounding people are staring at them, Feng An, Chen Longshu, Tan Dian, Feng An's brother Feng Huo and the Ning family who are far away in Qinzhou.

These people are all strong and strong, sitting on tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, all staring at the big cake of Nanfuzhou, it is really you who sing and I appear, fighting and fighting, and in the end only the Xitong in Nanfuzhou is the only one who is hurt.

"In that case, why not become a naturalized citizen?" Zhao Chen listened to the old man's words, and felt that his head was about to explode, and it was easy to wait for the old man's words to come to an end, Zhao Chen frowned and asked: "As long as you are naturalized, the imperial court will send troops to guard it, I believe that these people, with the imperial court army to guard it, will not be so unscrupulous!" ”

"Naturalization!" When the old man heard this, he smiled bitterly at Zhao Chen, pointed to Zhao Chen's untouched food on the table, and said, "The gods think that once we become naturalized at that time, will your emperor of the Central Plains want such a thing?" ”

As he spoke, the old man didn't wait for Zhao Chen to speak, so he said to himself: "Eight mountains, one water and one field, have you heard this sentence?" ”

Seeing Zhao Chen nodded, the old man continued: "Our place is the real evil mountains and rivers, where is it like the blessed land of the Central Plains, the food grown is not enough for you, once you become naturalized, what will you do to honor the emperor of the Central Plains?" ”

Zhao Chen heard the old man say the words of the evil mountains and bad waters in Lingnan, and suddenly there was a black line at the end, which is what is said in this era, if it is put in the future generations, if anyone says that the poor mountains and bad waters in Lingnan will not be sprayed to death on the spot, and will be treated as a fool.

Lingnan is a truly rich place!

It's just that since the Qin Dynasty, the courtiers have set their sights on the north, resulting in the emphasis on the north and the neglect of the south, and the originally rich places in the south have been barren and desolate, and they are also known as the land of smoke and miasma in the south is not as rich as the north at all.

"Lingnan is barren, and the imperial court is not unaware, and if you become naturalized, the imperial court will exempt Lingnan from taxes!" Zhao Chen thought about those ridiculous remarks in his mind, paused slightly, looked at the old man and said.

"How many years can it be spared?" When the old man heard this, he couldn't help but let out a sneer, and said: "The place of evil mountains and bad waters, not because of natural disasters and poor crops, but because there is no food at all, will the emperor of the Central Plains always be tax-free?" ”

This can't! Zhao Chen didn't have to think about it, so he shook his head, no matter how enlightened a king is, it is impossible for him to just let one place go and be exempt from taxes forever.

Even if the people in power are willing, it is estimated that the local officials are not willing, this is a political achievement! Maybe there will be some crazy guys, in order to show their ability, try their best to exploit it, as their own political achievements, and in the end it is not these people who suffer!

"So! This naturalization is never going to be entered! When the old man saw Zhao Chen shaking his head, he immediately showed a miserable smile on his face, sighed deeply, looked at Zhao Chen and said.

When Zhao Chen heard this, he couldn't help but sigh with the old man, in fact, the old man's worries were not exaggerated, and he would refuse to naturalize if he changed his position. I can't even fill my belly! Where is there any surplus food to pay taxes, even if you are forcibly naturalized, there will still be problems in the end!

In the final analysis, the problem of Lingnan lies in changing the original backward production capacity of Lingnan. Today's Lingnan is still the primitive slash-and-burn agriculture, and only by introducing advanced agricultural technology from the Central Plains to completely solve the problem of low agricultural production, will naturalization still be like this?

Zhao Chen didn't dare to guarantee those who were really in the depths of the mountains, but these familiar tribes like Nanfu definitely didn't have such a big resistance to naturalization!

Speaking of which, it's still the wishful thinking of the courtiers, who know about naturalization all day long, but never care about this, with a mouth, it is a barbaric place that does not obey the king.

Wang Hua, Wang Hua, Zhao Chen was quite speechless about this, he still didn't understand what this Wang Hua was referring to. Anyway, what he knew was that when the whole south really achieved 'two lakes are ripe, the world is full', and there were several immigration frenzy in the middle.

A large number of people from the north poured into the south, bringing advanced agricultural technology to the south, and the original miasma of the south suddenly became a rich land in the world!

It's a pity that these immigration frenzy were all accompanied by the smoke and bones of the north, and none of them were immigration policies involving the people of the dynasty.

The king can't be turned into a wild place, the reason for this, who is to blame?

The night is deep, the whole Qingxi Ridge has fallen into tranquility, during the day because of the arrival of Zhao Chen and Cheng Chumo, and the cheers caused by have stopped at this moment, the whole village, at this time under the dark night sky, seems quiet and peaceful.

Cheng Chumo had already fallen asleep at this time after eating the two fried chicken legs that Zhao Chen secretly stuffed, and during this time, he spent most of his time in a hot air balloon after a long journey, and he did choke Cheng Chumo enough.

Zhao Chen couldn't sleep, and looked at Cheng Chumo sleeping with the old man, so he had to get up lightly, came to the outside of the attic, lit a cigarette, and looked up at the bright starry sky above his head while smoking.

Thinking about what the old man said during the day, my mind is a little crazy!
