Chapter 113: The Strange Habits of the Sun God's Emissary
The capture of this whale was supposed to help solve the problem of eating, but what I didn't expect was that it would also open some people's hearts.
There is nothing to be afraid of in the sea, and fish the size of mountains are no match for the messengers of the sun god------ and there are finally people who dare to board small sea boats to participate in fishing.
With enough time and opportunity, everything will change.
When Guo Shoujing came to the silver mining area, the whale had become a white bone, and nothing useful was wasted.
Guo Shoujing pointed to the white bone and said, "Why didn't you burn it to make fertilizer?" ”
Director Zhang Hongfan personally went to the dock to pick him up and said: "We have struvite and saltpeter powder, these are better than bone meal, it is better to put it here------ you don't see how much those laborers respect that big fishbone!" ”
Guo Shoujing understood his intentions, which were used to scare the natives.
But he still corrected that whales are not fishes, but mammals in the sea------ which was said in the "Liuqiu Times", and he also verified it himself.
It doesn't matter if the whale is a fish or not, the important thing is that old friends come.
Director Zhang Hongfan warmly welcomed him, and the two had a good conversation.
Guo Shoujing brought a large amount of engineering explosives, and before drinking, he saw his subordinates put the explosives and ammunition boxes in the warehouse before he gave up.
He said to Director Zhang Hongfan: "These are all treasures, it is difficult to open the working face without them------ after running out, we will have to prepare soil explosives and medicine." ”
Director Zhang Hongfan said: "It doesn't matter, how much charcoal you need, there is Liuhuang on the mountain, and the people here use it as a dye." ”
Guo Shoujing suddenly sighed, this is really a wonderful place, there are all the things that human beings need!
The two drank a little wine and arranged the work step by step.
A large saltpeter ice store, similar to the one in Chile's nitrate mining areas, was built to store food and keep it fresh during transportation.
Then the wharf was expanded, and the limestone was abundant here to burn cement, even if it was of a lower grade, than a wooden wharf.
Director Zhang Hongfan said: "I personally dived down at the wharf, and as long as the cement component was extended along the 80 meters, the 3,000-ton sea vessel could be docked directly, and there was no need for a barge." ”
"There is no more suitable bay?"
"No, I will send people to find it in the north and south, and there is no suitable one within at least two hundred miles."
The third task is simple, we must increase the grain production here.
Guo Shoujing pointed out that since the natives here already have a large number of sloping fields, we can also provide them with struvite and saltpeter powder fertilizers, and at the same time add simple stone huang pesticides, which helps them increase their yields, and also indirectly helps ourselves, which is a win-win situation.
Director Zhang Hongfan thought for a while and said: "Purifying saltpeter powder is very troublesome------
Guo Shoujing said: "Haha, don't worry, I have learned a lot in the saltpeter mining area of Chile, and it is not difficult!" ”
Director Zhang Hongfan had no choice but to agree to this guy's suggestion, but warned him not to treat that indigenous country as a normal country, their thinking is different from ours.
Guo Shoujing said: "No matter what, it is always a good thing to have more food------
At the wine table, the two of them began to talk about their future, and talked about Dayuan, who had not been mentioned for a long time.
They were all people who had personally met the great leaders of the Tatars.
Guo Shoujing said with emotion: "One is to kill people, rob and occupy the city as a meritorious cause, and the other is to make people eat well ------- ability to make people eat well.
I, Guo Shoujing, really admire it, and I am willing to serve this federal empire------ this is not for one family, it is really for the citizens of the empire, for the people of the world!
I --- Guo Shoujing and am willing to use this labor to wash away the sins of evil in the past! ”
The newly brewed coconut wine is relatively strong, and the two of them drank it and drank it.
Director Zhang Hongfan laughed, and then tears fell from his eyes, and he said, "What do you call the crime of evil?!" Mine is called the Sin of Evil!!
My --- Zhang Hongfan often thought about how much wealth would have been created if I hadn't killed those people and let them go to Western Australia and come here!
I finally understood why they destroyed the productive forces, why they burned down good cities, because they knew that they were barbarians-------------
It's fucking homesick. ”
It is said that some men are drunk and like to cry more than women------ which is true.
Guo Shoujing was accompanied by two companies of army troops, who were also drinking and chatting with the commander of the regiment in the barracks.
It's a small internal integration.
The commander of the Gangneung regiment gave a brief account of the three companies stationed in the city of Kusk, which, at least for the time being, got along well with the military of the Inca Empire.
The Inca army was victorious in their pursuit of the judges, most of the fleeing troops surrendered, and they were pardoned by Capac IV.
A handful of die-hard elements don't know where to go.
They're all jungle warriors, and if they can't find anyone, they can't find anyone.
Maybe he died in the mouth of a python, a lion and a leopard.
The task now is to maintain security in the area pending the arrival of reinforcements.
Security depends on strength, and although the Inca Empire currently recognizes us as messengers of the sun god, we must take the long view and not be sloppy.
A company commander said proudly: "Their army is like a clay puppet in my eyes, vulnerable!" ”
The head of the Gangneung regiment agreed with this judgment, which was not blind arrogance.
He said: "Because of this, we treat them with a fair attitude, so that they will be more grateful, it is better than destroying the country at one time, we have to think about the long term, sometimes the gun is not necessarily as strong as the pen." ”
Many officers were not convinced, but because of their official positions and ranks, they did not say much.
In the royal palace in Kusk, Deputy Director Zongxiong is teaching two children how to write Da Song characters in a sand table.
They are clearly beyond the level of learning one, two, three.
Deputy Director Zong Xiong first wrote a personal character, and then asked, "Do you look like a walking person?" ”
Raqqa's son immediately jumped up and assumed a chevron shape.
Capac IV would have written it soon, and he would have read it along, and he did not like Raqqa's son to learn faster than he did.
Deputy Director Zong Xiong added a horizontal to the character and said, "This is a big ------ do you think it's bigger than a big one?" ”
Raqqa's son immediately raised his arm again.
Capac IV learned.
Deputy Director Zong Xiong added a short horizontal mark to the big characters, saying: "No matter how big or small the person is, his top is heaven." ”
Immediately Raqqa's son raised his arms as best he could, and he did his best to look up to the sky!
Deputy Director Zong Xiong asked the two of them to learn to write these three words in the sand table.
The lighting in the palace was with torches, and the flickering light of the fire made his eyes uncomfortable.
At this time, the Tasa guard came with Raqqa.
The Tasa guard needed canned food from the messenger of the sun god, and that kind of magic lamp, and dried fish------ and said a lot in one breath.
Deputy Director Zong Xiong said that there is no problem at all, but you have to exchange your food and linen.
Deputy Director Zong Xiong made an exchange gesture.
The Tasa guard officer was stunned for a moment, in his heart, giving is giving, if you want it, why change it?
------But in the end, I agreed, maybe this is the strange habit of the messenger of the sun god.
