Chapter 607: Nostalgia 7

Stepping on the land of Quanzhou Port again, the first soldier and horse envoy of Huaidong and the first battalion of the imperial right were rolling up the flag, but they felt a little dazed

The unattainable Shangguan and the corresponding officials and subordinates in the past welcomed him, the pillars of the national dynasty who had made an expedition to the north, with a sycophant and friendly expression.

To this end, led by the local governor of the same surname who claims to be his own family, the reception banquet held in the state capital can be described as a gathering of sea and land curiosities, and also invited celebrity chefs from several large restaurants such as Xingmingju, Baowei Zhai, and Guangjuyuan to personally concoct Buddha jumping over the wall and vinegar fish. Roast ginger duck, water and land fresh dumplings and other local flavor dishes.

But he didn't know what to eat, and he couldn't remember the extremely attentive faces, and he repeatedly introduced and reported the names of the dishes. Because these exquisite dishes cooked with heart are not even as good as the deep memories left by the food he ate in the mountains at the beginning.

Although, at that time, the conditions in the station were quite difficult. Because they were stationed near the inland mountain mines to guard against the untamed Shanha and other Turkish heroes, after eating heads and empty salaries layer by layer according to the custom, the rice grain they received in the military village each time was not enough in terms of quality and quantity, so they could only find ways to make up for it on the spot.

Therefore, under the leadership of Zhai Guan, it has become a kind of continuous expedient to exchange the limited amount of precious rice noodles for sweet potatoes and taro with good quality and sufficient prices.

From baked potatoes, steamed rice with dried potatoes, to sweet potato porridge, to potato leaf cakes. Just a variety of sweet potato products have already made people pantothenic acid from mouth to stomach.

Therefore, it is a great blessing to occasionally eat a bowl of fried pork and coarse rice with salty taro stalk soup.

If you have the opportunity to go to the state city on a business trip, get together a few big people, eat a meal of fried oysters and beef soup, and then buy some cheap rice crackers, oil noodles, fish rolls, dried kelp and other souvenirs, it will be something that people will talk about for a long time.

In his memories,

Guan Zhai, who was born in an old military family, is a cautious and good man, but it is only because he has been in the army for a long time that he has taken this insignificant position. Although the armed training is sparse, it is rarely deducted and lined up with them in daily life, and when they are not available, they will even take them to hunt and pick green, and then exchange them for salt, iron pots, needles and threads from passing merchants, and then from the familiar Tu people, in exchange for daily use that can continue to support for a period of time.

Instead of being like other military villages, they openly reported the loss of ordnance and secretly sold it in exchange for wine and meat to improve their lives. Therefore, among the many military villages stationed in northern Fujian, it has maintained relatively intact combat strength and morale, and it is also the village with the least accidental casualties and battle loss rate.

But the long garrison life in the mountains is undoubtedly monotonous and lonely, especially for the descendants of Lao Guangfu who have received a certain amount of education and opened their eyes like the Wind Rolling Banner, they cannot endure the hardship and loneliness for a long time.

Therefore, he was poor and thought about change, and found a way to find the origin of the so-called old alumni who came to inspect the mine at the right time, and was transferred from the mountains to the coastal area, and became a junior colonel in the army who ran errands for people.

But because of this, it is getting farther and farther away from the ideals and longings in my heart, and it is becoming more and more broken. Once saved enough money and then returned to Guangfu, it was his last hope, even if he lost his military status and background for this.

It wasn't until he re-seized that chance and met his current boss that he was able to break free from the mediocre to the desperate daily life.

Now that he is developed, he also wants to repay him, he used to manage the village and other family members, and casually help his colleagues back then, but under his inquiry, he only had a hidden expression of embarrassment, or a blunt bad news in private.

The mines under the jurisdiction of the inland states have basically fallen into the hands of thieves, and only a few relatively strong cities remain, which are still struggling to hold on. Therefore, the news he needs is naturally slim.

In fact, under the hustle and bustle of the dock market he saw, there was a certain kind of panic and lingering tension that could not be concealed.

It can be seen that outside the port area, several shelters under the banner of Huaidong are already crowded with people waiting to load the ship and set sail, mainly poor households and peasants who have fled from the hinterland, which has mostly fallen.

The war has directly deprived them of their livelihood and the last means of survival, and has also destroyed their familiar homeland. Therefore, many people can only gather aimlessly and spontaneously outside the seaside city, waiting for food and clothing to die, hoping for the government's little soup and little water.

And then that day turned into a field of soot and flames rising from above.

However, compared with the rich areas of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang River Network Plains, which are full of fertile fields and fertile fields, as well as those powerful and large households in the south of the Yangtze River who can take advantage of natural disasters to desperately shade the exiled population, as tenants and tribes who are not registered in the household register.

The coastal areas of central Fujian, which also lack land and production, and rely on maritime trade to thrive, are like those inland mountainous areas, and do not have enough space and ceiling to carry and feed, and so many refugees have poured in at once.

Therefore, with very little cost and publicity, the local government is even eager to take the initiative to cooperate and send these unstable factors that cause chaos and disorder in the suburbs to be sent abroad to fend for themselves.

Therefore, after pressing the corresponding wedge book print, it will be sent to Huaidong to open up, and the relatively barren Jiaodong Denglai Prefecture. Then it takes at least 10 to 20 years, or even longer, to pay for the required expenses. After all, the Fujian people are hard-working and good at pioneering camps, and they have also been famous since ancient times.

As for the military affairs of the wind and the banner to put down the military affairs of Yidu, and the task of coming from afar, it is to pull the heads of the old troops who have served.

That is, to recruit some mountain soldiers in Fujian, although the environment is treacherous and the people's livelihood is difficult, but the corresponding poor mountains and bad waters out of the people, but also created these hard-working, stoic and fierce folk customs, is a good source of mountain soldiers.

At the same time, with the help of these sources, some back-up and preparatory measures were arranged in the local area to prevent the situation in Fujian from being completely out of control.

Considering the worst plan, once there is an uncontrollable collapse and fall along the coast of Fujian, it is necessary to arrange for the transfer of corresponding personnel and materials to Yizhou on the other side of the river, so as to reduce losses and profit from them to the greatest extent.

Although he can't see these signs and signs for the time being, he prefers to believe in the vision and judgment of his commander, who has long led them out of one predicament and danger after another......

"This is Sillomy?"

I watched in amazement, squatting in front of a kitchen table, fiddling with a small bucket of freshly cooked rice and other ingredients. and Xiao Jiajia, who was also by her side, almost half of her body was lying on her head.

There is also a Schrödinger who is attracted by the fragrance, but is intimidated by the steaming heat, and meows around the case.

"And some of them are Umi......

Holding his head and squatting and smiling, his eyes are like crescent moons.

"It's the best way to make hand-decorated rice balls......

"Yes......"

I also became interested, turned a rice ball and poked it in my hand, and pinched out various shapes according to some memories of later generations.

"Then let's compare......

However, with the appearance of small rabbits, elephants, piglets, fish, peaches and other large and small rice balls on the food table

My mind flew out for a while. These new rami and Japanese rice are one of the new trade varieties brought back by the new shippers who returned from the north, led by Hikong.

Although a large number of people starved to death every day due to famine and war, the local rulers still could not resist the determination and will of the local rulers to export rice for profit, or in exchange for the daily enjoyment of drunken dreams and death, corresponding to the demand for luxuries.

The so-called conscience of capital is nothing more than that. Just like the one in South Asia in later generations, it is claimed to be a great country composed of 100 million happy citizens and the remaining untouchables and two-legged animals.

However, reflection is reflection, for me these places are neither under my rule, even if there are many people starving to death, it is not as important as my Huaidong, and there are more grain import and export channels.

At this time, I saw Xue Zhengyan, the head of the Marquis of Yu, leading the secretary Wuping with a serious face, and Ke Shanmeng, who had a somewhat unconcerned and excited face, and walked over together.

After a moment, I couldn't help but take a rare breath.

"It's actually the Nanhai Society that came to the door"
