In the evening, the detailed contents of the telegram finally arrived.

After receiving the order, the Meteor Troop organized a tracking team of Jīng Rui and entered the location of Zhenla, and the logistics followed one after another, with a total of more than 1,600 people.

Along the way, there were five tribes that had stopped, three of them were destroyed, and a total of 461 people were killed, and some of the people who were killed not only did not give any useful information, but also tried to stop them by force and poisoned them.

According to the order issued by Wang Juan, all those who stand in the way are killed, so the heads of four hundred and sixty-one people were cut off, and at the same time they were pickled, hidden, and taken together when they were captured, or they were taken back by the people of the second echelon who followed them, and they have not yet returned.

The remaining two tribes were very talkative, not only showing the way to the people of the Meteor Clan, but also providing some vegetables, and the Meteor Clan's people exchanged the meat they hunted during the chase with the two tribes.

At the same time, he also introduced the current situation of Datang to the two tribes, and welcomed them to settle in the border first, where the original tribes had already been scattered.

In this way, people from the two tribes were able to contact each other first, and then deepen the communication depending on the situation.

Then he went all the way directly to the royal city, and forcibly brought out the envoy and other entourages who had bullied the women of his own country before, without being stopped by any force, but the king of Chenla, Bafa Valman, sent someone to inquire about it, and then he didn't care.

Of course, he did not take the initiative to send his own soldiers to help arrest people, and at the same time asked people to block the news and not allow this matter to spread among the people. It is estimated that it is afraid of affecting the people's will.

Right now, the people of the Meteor Clan are escorting people back as fast as they can, and they find a place for a signal signal on the way to transmit the news to the relay station, all the way to Yizhou.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan looked at each other and smiled after reading the contents of the telegram.

"It seems that Bafa Valman is still quite knowledgeable about current affairs, I thought that when he went to his royal city to arrest the envoy who had just returned, he would have to argue a few words, or protest and protest, or even directly send troops to protect people, but I didn't expect him to let it go."

Zhang Xiaobao said to Wang Juan with a smile.

Wang Juan picked up the paper and crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the paper basket, shaking his head gently. said: "Maybe he wants to paralyze us first, and then the whole army comes to fight, we have to put some pressure on him first, but their ordinary tribes are still united, dare to stop our people, and poison, unfortunately, it is destined to not have a good result." ”

"Yes, it can really kill. The death of more than 400 people may have solved all the young men of the three tribes. Why bother, I have to go to my Datang to bully two weak women, and see, how many lives need to be used to fill it? ”

Zhang Xiaobao also shook his head, there are indeed many people who have died, but he has no regrets, and he does not have any sense of guilt, killing people is not an end, it is a means. Kill this time, and after the news spreads, Datang will be stable next to other places.

King Zhenla didn't want the news to be released, but he could help the other party spread the news to various places, and he also had to spread it and write it in the newspaper for the people of Datang to see. Feel the power of your country.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan discussed it again, in order to continue to put pressure on Zhenla, so that they were still as honest and stable as before, the two decided to set off in three days. Slow down and downstream.

Go to Dianchi Lake to see the scenery, then change to the west, cross the Lancang River, continue to the west, enter the territory of India, or the country of Pyu, that is, Myanmar.

If they are too stupid and don't go back as fast as their own side, then they have to find a way to use other means to let their intelligence officers elsewhere get the news.

Going down from Yizhou, it will give people the feeling that they want to go directly to Zhenla, and after the king of Zhenla knows about it, he will see if he will send an additional letter of invitation.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan did not want to fight in the past, but to understand the special products of various places along the way, such as jade, jade, these things have to be developed well, and gold mines or something.

The other is to make a more detailed map to see where the road can be built, and that side will be occupied in the future, and it is not possible to risk your life from the mountains to drill the forest as you do now.

Take a turn, and you can come back in the winter, continue to pick a place, and then go there and build a place.

*****

Three days passed quickly.

Xiaobei nine people have already packed their luggage, said goodbye to the children in the school, and also left 'homework' for the little boy who likes to play Monopoly, in fact, it is to let him calculate the various data in the game, as well as the environment of the place he passed by, and then write a letter, let people send it to Xiaobei and others, and then reply to the letter.

The little boy was very reluctant, and he played games to increase his knowledge a lot, and he obviously learned more knowledge than children of the same age, which made him full of yearning for the study and life of the school. People are like this, when they can't compare to others, they don't have the motivation to learn, and once they are strong in a certain aspect, they will be stronger in this aspect, because they want to keep this advantage.

The team of Zhang and Wang took the boat and vigorously advertised, saying that they were going to the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate, and then diverted to other places. A farewell party was also organized to leave in the send-off of the people.

As soon as they left, the officials in Yizhou obviously felt more pressure, and they had to take over many of the things arranged by the Zhang and Wang families after they came over, and if they didn't do well, it was estimated that the results would not be very good.

******

The fleet moved slowly on the river, and in order to slow down the current, the boats also set sails against the wind, which could counteract some of the current's forces.

Other ships are desperate to have more wings, so that they can be faster.

Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were afraid that Zhenla's intelligence officers would not be able to transmit the news back in time, so they sent a special report to the Annan Metropolitan Protectorate, asking them to carry out a lot of propaganda in the local area, saying that the Zhang and Wang families would come over soon, and they also brought a large army, so they had to organize people in advance to level the resting place of the Zhang and Wang families.

And it's still a real construction, and the local people have to organize it. Help build a house or something. The money came from Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

In fact, they will not go there at all, and the repaired buildings and the well-organized site can be used to do other things for the local area, which is regarded as helping to build the place.

"It's busy." Zhang Xiaobao stood at the bow of the boat and sighed.

"We're busy, in fact, we're very idle compared to ordinary people, we don't need to get up early and come home late every day, and what we do is more meaningful than them, I'm not going to live like that. Home - the place where you work - home, so that there are two points and one line. ”

Wang Juan stood beside Zhang Xiaobao and said to Zhang Xiaobao.

Zhang Xiaobao pointed to the boats on other rivers with his hand: "I'm not talking about us, it's them, our fleet occupies a route for others, this is still all the ships lined up in a line, if they move sideways, others will hope to leave." ”

Wang Juan looked at the place pointed by Zhang Xiaobao, and sure enough. It was really busy, and there was a big cargo ship. I went up against the current to the place ahead, and now I am driving slowly while I buy something to eat.

Normally, the ship prepares its own food, but depending on the situation, in order to be able to carry more goods, the ship eats as it goes, and buys some wherever it goes.

Those who had boats near the banks had an extra business, and they would prepare food and put it in large barrels and put it on small boats. Then the boat was rocked into the middle of the river, and a small sail was hung on it, and the words "selling lunch boxes" were written on the sails.

Many cargo ships will let them pass, and then use ropes to lift the food, pour out the food, and then hoist the bucket back, which is very convenient. It also saves manpower, no need to arrange additional kitchen cooking, let alone prepare food, and drink water directly in the middle of the lecture.

The only downside is that the spending is large. The meals you buy are more expensive than making them yourself, but not a lot, otherwise it won't be cost-effective.

Wang Juan really didn't see this situation, but now that he sees it, he takes a telescope out and takes a closer look.

The big cargo ship is just against the current, the speed is not fast, the small boat is flexible in turning, it is easy to get over, but it is also very dangerous to look at, if you are not careful, the small boat will hit the big ship, it is impossible for people to die, and the ship is bound to be destroyed.

"Interesting, right?" Zhang Xiaobao smiled when he saw Wang Juan looking over there, and said to her: "In fact, this is the pursuit of life, and fairness is impossible." The people who look at other people's boats have a good skill in controlling the boat with one hand, and at the same time can think of this method and are willing to work hard for it. ”

"The food you cook also has to taste good, otherwise there will be competition." Wang Juan followed.

She knew what Zhang Xiaobao meant, this part of the rowing and selling food must make more money than others, and with money, they can hire others to continue to expand their business, build more ships, and cook more vegetables to sell.

The income will increase even more, and the people they hire will certainly not be able to compare with their income, the word exploitation can appear, and the income equity of society will be broken.

But when they make more money, they must also collect more taxes, otherwise the society will be unstable, which is another kind of unfairness for them, people are smart, work hard for it, and the money they earn is clean, but there will always be people who will be jealous.

"It's not easy, it's not easy, whether it's smart or stupid, plus those of us who help them maintain, live, all for a better life." Zhang Xiaobao sighed again, like a philosopher.

"Let's buy one and try it too." Becky's voice sounded not far away.

They are also reluctant to stay in the cabin, run to the deck, bask in the sun, look at the scenery, and wait for others to fall into the water, so that they can save them, which is also a not very 'authentic' mind, how can they expect others to fall into the water.

But Xiaobei they think so, but unfortunately this dream is not so easy to realize, there are many boats coming and going, and the people who run the boat are all jīng through the water, even if they fall in, it is estimated that they will not wait for Xiaobei to save them, others will save themselves in advance or let others save them.

Following Xiaobei's instructions, someone immediately shouted there again, asking the food seller to come over. Others went to prepare large pots for meals.

Datang's only Daomiao Banner Datang people all knew each other, and when they saw this shout, the rice seller urged the people on the cargo ship twice, asking the other party to send the money over.

When the money is in hand, the rice seller turns the rudder, observes the distance between the two sides, and paddles diagonally against the current.

The boat on Zhang Xiaobao's side was also advancing, not fast, and waited for a while. The boat that sold food just swung its rudder again with the current, parallel to the big ship.

There were four people on board, two of whom controlled the oars, so that the boat could fight against the water brought out by the big boat again and again, and maintain the balance of the boat.

Xiaobei looked down and said, "It's not easy, let me row, I promise to turn the boat into the water." Then swim to the shore. But there is a reward for paying, and it looks like a family, which is good. ”

The people on the boat threw the rope downward, and at the same time there were people on the deck of the first floor who stretched out two long poles, so that the rower did not need to control the oars, but directly grabbed the pole and fixed his small boat, in the same direction as the big boat.

When Becky saw it, he ran to the cabin. When you come out, take a loudspeaker and shout to the bottom: "Learn something." In the future, there are two bamboo poles on your own boat, so why bother controlling the oars. ”

The man holding the pole on the boat looked up and shouted to Xiaobei: "Thank you, I didn't expect it before." ”

"Look, I'm not great." Xiaobei felt that he had done a very big thing, and asked Xiao Yuan, who was also looking at the boat.

Xiao Yuan replied wisely: "Great, it's too great, wait a while to taste the food, you can also put forward suggestions for improvement, that will be even greater." ”

Bey promised. Then he showed a embarrassed look: "If it's too unpalatable, will I give you the leftovers?" ”

"Use a small plate to serve, let's eat one, I'll let it go, it's just a big bite, I don't believe it can eat me." Xiaoyuan showed great courage.

Becky laughed happily, and she said that she was playing. I didn't expect Xiaoyuan to be so cooperative.

The bucket of food was quickly brought up, two buckets of vegetables, one bucket of rice, a ratio of two to one. And there is a box made of bamboo on one of the buckets for vegetables, which contains pickles.

Someone below shouted, "The pickles are not for sale, but we eat them ourselves, so I will give you a taste." ”

"Thank you." Xiaobei shouted back with a loudspeaker, and after shouting, he wondered and asked Xiaoyuan: "Why don't they sell pickles?" ”

"Because pickles aren't tasty, right?" Xiao Yuan replied uncertainly, and then shook his head: "No, if it's not delicious, he will give it to us?" Don't give them money for pickles, give them two packs of dim sum in return, and give them a small jar of rot rǔ and stinky tofu. ”

Xiao Yuan's words were ordered by the inner courtyard of the family, they are all used to it, when others send things, they will not give money, and when the time comes, they will send other things back. In fact, every time you lose, the value of the things you give back is often several times the value of the things sent by others, or even dozens of times.

But once they met, they were still happy and willing to send something more valuable back.

The food was poured out, and the dim sum and the rotten rǔ and stinky tofu were put into the rice bucket, and they were hung back again.

Xiaobei tried the pickles, very ordinary cucumber and radish pickles, but the taste was really good.

Let's click my mouth, Xiaobei wondered even more: "It's delicious, and there is some sesame oil in it, especially this cucumber, which is actually soaked in the sauce, there is a sauce fragrance, if it is sold, there must be many people who love to eat it, is it that the output can't keep up?" Elder brother. ”

Xiaobei couldn't figure it out, and when he asked his brother, he naturally asked Zhang Xiaobao, not Xiaohai.

Zhang Xiaobao looked at the pickles, then at the vegetables, and said to his sister: "Because the people who walk the cargo ships are also smart." ”

"What do you mean?" Becky asked.

"If you sell pickles, then the price of pickles must be cheaper than vegetables, and pickles are also saltier than vegetables, and then the people on the cargo ship may only buy a barrel of vegetables, and then buy a little pickles, and the seller of meals will not make less money?"

Zhang Xiaobao explained to Xiaobei.

Xiaobei's nine little guys opened their mouths one by one, looked at the pickles in surprise, and then looked at the poured vegetables, looking very speechless.

"They...... That's all they have to say? Xiaobei sighed and said, she felt that this person was too difficult to locate, and a food seller was still playing tricks.

Zhang Xiaobao smiled and said: "It's not a small calculation, it's the wisdom in life, our country is supported by these small wisdoms, and all industries and things can learn from it." Then promote the development of society, and when the society develops, more small wisdom will appear.

Little by little, the country became stronger. Otherwise, if you look at people in other places, they are all stupid, and if there is no wisdom in carpentry, carpentry will not be good; If the bricklayer lacks a little wisdom, the house will not be built well; If a chef doesn't have a little wisdom, how can he come up with a better new dish?

Don't underestimate these, they are an important part of the society, and if a person can learn all the little wisdom, then he has great wisdom. ”

"Got it, thank you, brother." Xiaobei listened very carefully, and said happily after figuring it out.

Xiao Yuan also said: "So that's the case, everything comes from life, and then the change of life promotes the improvement of wisdom, so ...... Is it possible to sell vegetables and pickles at the same time? ”

Zhang Xiaobao thought about it for a while and said: "It just so happens that you are idle and have nothing to do, so you don't need to run around to communicate with people, so you can help them think about how to sell pickles and vegetables at the same time." ”

"Yes, it's a homework left for you, you have to think about it, and when you think about it clearly, it's really feasible, send someone to tell them to sell food. Eat, you buy it, you eat it first, and if it's not delicious, you have to eat it. ”

Wang Juan followed, and then looked at the bitter faces of his younger brothers and sisters, and smiled.

"Eat it, eat it, and you can't kill people, I don't believe he dares to poison me, I'll come first, take a look, this is an eggplant, it's not burned eggplant, or it is fried directly, the skin is fried, this is a cabbage slice, and there are small spots on the cabbage inside that are bitten by insects, Xiaoyuan, you see, whether the cabbage is vinegared."

Xiaobei leaned over to look at the dishes, there were two dishes in total, one was eggplant and the other was cabbage, which didn't look very good, so she decided to give Xiaoyuan a chance to eat first.

Xiaoyuan really went to eat, took a spoon, scooped out a little and put it on the plate, picked it up with chopsticks and ate it in his mouth, and clicked it twice: "It's okay, you can eat it, it's just a little light, and the oil is less, and there is actually some meat in it." ”

"Then you all eat." Wang Juan said to his younger siblings, and then asked Zhang Xiaobao in a low voice: "How do you say you can sell pickles and vegetables together?" ”
