Shang Tao had the delicate red lacquered square table moved from the inside of the hall to the outside of the room, and placed it on the huge open space on the right side of the yurt. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

In the future, whether it is dining or drinking tea and chatting about things, Shang Tao plans to be there.

He didn't want a man to run into the main house where he and Konka lived, even if that man was Konka's father.

The dinner was very rich, mainly meat-based, and Shang Tao also caught eight crabs, but all of them were male crabs, which was to let Kang Di, who had just arrived at noon today, have a taste.

In the small pond next to the yurt, there are only a dozen crabs left, which Shang Tao plans to stay for seeding.

Although Ye Maoyan said that these crabs are far inferior to the Haizhou crabs in this world in terms of taste, it is better to have them than not to eat them. Besides, after raising these crabs in this outrageous world with a good ecological environment for a few years, the taste will gradually improve.

As soon as the crab was brought to the table, Kang Di's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Nephew, aren't you a crab?" I've read about crabs in books, but this is the first time I've seen them, and they taste so good that I need to try them quickly. ”

As he spoke, Kang Di reached out and grabbed the largest crab.

"By the way, Uncle Kang, don't you have more than 4,000 people under your command? What about others? At the dinner table, Shang Tao asked curiously.

"Oh, some of the old, weak, sick and disabled are still in their original stations for the time being, and those who can hunt have gone out to hunt and store food for the winter." Kang Di chewed on the crab leg and slurred his words.

"Isn't it still summer? Started stocking up on food for the winter? Shang Tao asked puzzled.

Ye Maoyan took over the topic and explained: "The weather in the grassland is different from that in Guannai, in more than a month, most of the grass on this grassland will wither and yellow, some animals will migrate south for wintering, and animals that do not migrate will also begin to dig holes to hibernate, and then after a month, the entire grassland will be covered with thick snow, and basically no prey will be able to be hunted at that time." The major hunting tribes, including Brother Kang, hunt a large number of prey in this season every year, and then dry them into jerky, and basically rely on these jerkys for food throughout the winter. ”

"Wait, why a nomadic tribe, not a nomadic tribe?" Shang Tao asked puzzledly, although this prairie is rich in products, in Shang Tao's opinion, it is more worry-free to raise livestock by himself.

Ye Maoyan asked rhetorically: "There are endless prey on this prairie, you have to eat it at any time, you can hunt it at any time, why do you have to keep it in captivity?" ”

"Uh...... All right. Shang Tao thought that Konka took more than a dozen people out this morning, and it took less than half an hour to hunt dozens of prey of different sizes back, so it seems that it is really more worry-free than raising livestock in captivity, at least there is no need to build a livestock shed, no need to prepare feed, no need to clean up manure, and no need to prevent diseases.

"So the major nomads don't have to go to the customs in winter to burn, kill, plunder, and loot supplies?" Shang Tao continued to ask.

"Nephew Shangxian, why do you think so? Even a small city in the customs is not so easy to conquer, and the major tribes have enough food, and there are a large number of animal skins, dried meat, spices, herbs and other materials that can be exchanged with the caravans leaving the customs for various materials, so there is really no need to risk death to attack the city to grab supplies. Ye Maoyan replied.

"So, isn't there no hidden danger for the nomadic people outside the border to break through?" Shang Tao remembered that in ancient times on the earth, the main reason why those nomads repeatedly knocked on the customs was because of the lack of resources outside the customs, and this world obviously did not have this problem.

"Nephew Shang Xian, what do you think of this prairie?" Kang Di asked meaningfully.

"Well...... vast, fat, spectacular." Shang Tao replied.

"Tell me about the bad side."

"Huh? Bad ...... The wind is too strong, and there is a large temperature difference between morning and evening, and there is desolation. ”

Kang Di said: "That's right! And these, in the Central Plains is not a problem, the Central Plains has a pleasant climate, rich products, prosperous markets, picturesque scenery, virtuous nephew, do you still think that Datang does not have hidden dangers from the hunting tribes outside the Guan? ”

“……”

Kang Di continued: "In fact, in the past three thousand years, ranging from decades to hundreds of years, the nomadic tribes of the steppe will unite because of the strength of a certain tribe. ”

"However, the current Datang is in its heyday, and they have sown at least tens of thousands of fine works on this prairie, the purpose of which is naturally to monitor the every move of the tribes in the grassland, as long as any tribe grows to a certain extent, it will usher in the absolute crushing of the Datang Iron Cavalry."

"And my small tribe has never dared to expand its population, one of the main reasons is that it is afraid of being remembered by the emperor of the Tang Dynasty."

Shang Tao asked in surprise: "Uncle Kang, don't you suspect that you also have a Tang Dynasty under your hands?" ”

"Yes, the reason why I only brought 200 people here this time is precisely because of this consideration. After all, there are more than 4,000 people in my tribe, who can guarantee that I won't get mixed in with one or two Datang fine works? ”

"This is also the reason why I have never dared to expand the scale of the tribe, it stands to reason that over the years, the Tang Dynasty has been suppressing large tribes with a population of more than 50,000 people, but our Kang family is a remnant of the previous dynasty in the eyes of the Tang Emperor. So I have always controlled the population of the tribe to the size of four or five thousand people, and I am also afraid of attracting the attention of the Tang Emperor. ”

Shang Tao said: "I can see from Miss Kang's booklet, your Kang family should have nothing to do with this Tang Dynasty, right?" After the destruction of the Kang Dynasty, it took more than 60 years for the Tang Dynasty to establish the country. ”

"The words are good, but after all, my ancestor of Kangjia once established the Great Kang Dynasty, who has said that the current Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will be more precautionary against our Kang family?"

"Well, that's true."

"Brother Kang, nephew Shang Xian, I plan to go back to Diezhang City tomorrow, and I have some business matters to deal with." Seeing that the conversation between Kang Di and Shang Tao had finally come to an end, Ye Maoyan said in a timely manner.

"Oh, Brother Ye plans to ...... tomorrow"

"Wrong, wrong, nephew Shang Xian, you should call me uncle, or call me Uncle Ye." Ye Maoyan didn't wait for Shang Tao to finish speaking, and immediately interrupted.

"Uh......, if you go back to Stacking City tomorrow, can I go over with you to see it? It's been a few days since I came to this prairie, and I've always wanted to visit Kannai. ”

"No problem......" Ye Maoyan agreed without hesitation.

"No, you can't!" As a result, he was interrupted by Kang Di before he finished speaking.

Shang Tao and Ye Maoyan both looked at Kang Di suspiciously.

Kang Di said solemnly: "If the You family's gang of horse bandits chased all the way to Diezhang Pass and didn't catch up with Brother Ye Xian's Ye family caravan, do you think they would do it?" ”

"What does Brother Kang mean?" Ye Maoyan was puzzled.

Kang Di continued: "I guess some of their heads and brains will definitely enter the city to be merry and happy, and then do you think they will talk about the iron-hulled car they saw in a place like a tavern and a brothel?" ”

"It should ...... Yes. Ye Maoyan said.

"If my expectations are correct, I'm afraid that your Ye family has been closely monitored by the Jinyi Guard of the Tang Dynasty by now."

Shang Tao immediately interjected: "Wait, wait, isn't Jinyiwei a spy agency in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

After speaking, Shang Tao immediately patted his head and laughed at himself: "Look at what kind of brain I have, the world has been played bad by a gang of crossing parties, so even if there is an FBI, CIA, KGB, MIA or the like in this Datang, it is not unusual!" ”

"Brother Shang Gongzi, what did you say? Why can't I understand a word? Konka stared at a pair of beautiful big eyes and asked suspiciously.

"Uh, nothing, nothing, let's keep eating......"
