Today's Yang Quan, even if he wants to find Qiu Niang, he doesn't have time, so he has to smile bitterly and follow the convoy towards the north. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The wooden wheels, turning on this yellow earth, made a babbling and rubbing sound, at this moment Yang Quan leaned on this car gang, was drowsy by the morning soft Yang Quan, although the people of this convoy have a way, but it will not be so smooth, occasionally encounter the army blocking the road, the convoy will still delay some effort.
These troops, but the last time the Tartars invaded the country brought about by the "by-product", the Ming Dynasty army implemented the rules, is the foreign guest army, in the local, the local government but no obligation to supply supplies, that is to say, this time the Beijing division was surrounded, the army of the foreign king of Qin, can only bring grain and grass from the hometown, but if an army carries too much logistics materials, it will often reduce the speed of the troops, plus the ancient means of transportation, the materials carried are limited, so, after the army arrived in Beijing, the grain and grass brought have long been consumed, When they arrived, the army was not replenished, and the soldiers could only starve.
It's good to say that the time is short, but the Tartars besieged the Beijing division for two or three months, and many of the troops can't stand it, but they don't have the courage to go to the local government to grab grain and grass, and they don't have the courage to do so, so they have to set up cards on this road to collect the customs clearance, which is a big crime, but now the Tartars have swept across the entire Beizhili and even Shandong, and even broke several cities, after the Tartars left, these cities let alone restore government functions, even the officials who went to the post have not yet made up all of them, so most of the government, the approach to these armies, It's also turning a blind eye.
At the beginning, the convoy still relied on its own backstage, and there were many people escorting the car, and they wanted to be tough on these gatekeepers, but after being besieged by this army once, they became honest, but every time they still had to bargain with those soldiers who checked the gates, and the customs clearance was pressed to a very low level before they could pass.
No, the convoy stopped again, and it seemed that someone was blocking the road again.
"Little Brother Yang, Little Brother Yang" someone shouted at Yang Quan in the distance. Yang Quan sat up straight a little helplessly, and shouted at the place where the voice came from, "Got it, it's over!" ”
"Big brother, why do you want to go over again?" Hou Qi, who was sitting on the car, saw Yang Quan jump off the car, his eyebrows jumped a few times, and he looked at Yang Quan with a smile and asked.
Yang Quan looked at the gloating appearance of these guys in the car, and smiled bitterly, "You guys, after all, this person helped our brother, and the food and drink we have along the way are still paid by others, shouldn't we go over to talk and chat?" ”
"Yes, yes, the eldest brother is right, but I see that this son is picturesque, could it be that he has moved his mind and fell in love with the eldest brother?" Wang Jiusi asked with a straight face and squinted his eyes.
Yang Quan kicked this guy and kicked him out of the car, "Get out, you kid is talking nonsense, I'll tell Hong Gongzi, you kid is in love with the old mother next to others, and you want to make a promise."
This Wang Jiusi sounded the old woman next to Hong Gongzi, and immediately had goosebumps on her body, and hurriedly confessed her mistake to Yang Quan.
Yang Quan jumped off the car, looked at the wide carriage in the middle of the convoy, hesitated for a moment, and walked over. To be honest, Yang Quan didn't want to go to that carriage either, because it gave Hong Gongzi a strange feeling, and every time Yang Quan sat next to this person, he always had a strange feeling.
But if he really doesn't go, Yang Quan is embarrassed to do so, because when the convoy came to the real thing, the convoy temporarily asked Yang Quan to pay a few cents of silver, but Yang Quan's pocket is cleaner than his face now, where is the money for them, and when he came out, Qin Tongju also told them that it was okay, but now he wants to add silver in a good manner, where is Yang Quan willing to follow them, isn't this taking Yang Quan as a big wrong?
If you don't give money, people will drive Yang Quan out of this convoy, which is lower, and the Hong Gongzi in the middle carriage generously donated money and paid the silver for Yang Quan. People helped themselves, how could Yang Quan not go over to say thank you, under this chat, this Hong Gongzi can talk to Yang Quan, and in addition to the boring and boring road, this Hong Gongzi often invites Yang Quan to go over to chat.
After a long time, gossip came out, this Hong Gongzi has the good of Longyang, and he fell in love with Yang Quan, which made Yang Quan a little unprepared, and it happened that he also inadvertently saw this Hong Gongzi looking at his eyes, it seems that something is not quite right, Yang Quan is a little frightened, does this Hong Gongzi really have a hobby in this area? Thinking of this, Yang Quan also began to be a little frightened about going to chat with Hong Gongzi.
Yang Quan's grinding and grinding, came to the carriage, opened the curtain of the carriage, and saw a young man wearing a moon-white robe leaning on the carriage in the carriage, looking down at a book, and a young man with clear eyebrows on the side was gently hammering the young man's thigh with his head down.
"Hong Gongzi, are you looking for me?" Yang Quan stood at the door and asked cautiously.
The young man heard Yang Quan's voice, hurriedly sat upright, and bowed his hand slightly to Yang Quan at the door, "Brother Yang is here?" You may be seated."
As he spoke, he turned to the little guy and said, "Huan'er, serve tea to Yang Gongzi"
The little guy answered, bowed his head and took out a small box, and began to make tea from this box. Hong Gongzi looked at Yang Quan with an excited face, "Yang Gongzi, I want to ask you, you said that there is a large piece of land in the extreme east, and the sweet potatoes and corn that have been introduced to our Ming Dynasty now are all products of these places, but I have asked many people who have run over the sea, and they don't know that there is this place." And these sweet potatoes and corn were brought back by people from overseas, not from the Far East."
Yang Quan listened to this Hong Gongzi's words, and couldn't wait to slap himself in the mouth, why did he owe so much at the beginning, he was originally here to say thank you to Hong Gongzi, where did he come in and saw a plate of corn on the table of this Hong Gongzi, Yang Quan was excited and grabbed it, this is a good thing that people will not starve in the future.
Originally, there was nothing else to do about this matter, but he held this corn by himself, and began to explain the origin of this corn to others in his excitement, until he said that this thing came from the continent in the extreme east, which suddenly made this Hong Gongzi excited.
Later, along the way, this Hong Gongzi got in touch with Yang Quan, and often discussed these grains with him. It was also from this time that Yang Quan knew that the Ming Dynasty had already introduced sweet potatoes and corn, but because of the environment and the resistance of ordinary people to fresh crops, they have not been popularized in the north. Combined with these cultivation experiences that have not been grown in the north, this yield is relatively low. In the past two days, in addition to discussing this extreme eastern land, Yang Quan and this Hong Gongzi discussed the most about the cultivation of these two crops in the north.
