Chapter 53 Calculation
Jia Siqian really didn't expect that this teenager who claimed to be illiterate would have so many books, and they were also ancient books!
Looking at the words that had been carefully copied on the parchment scroll, Jia Siqian was shocked.
"Shennong's Materia Medica", "The Book of Fansheng", "The Order of the Four Peoples", "Tao Seclusion Materia Medica", "The General Decision of Medicine", ......"
Jia Siqian is already dizzying, this Bai Ding's collection of books is inevitably too much, right? A thick parchment scroll actually contains medicine, agriculture, economics, history, engineering, construction, and ...... Classics in almost all categories.
looked at the young man suspiciously, even if he was not Bai Ding and could read and write, these things were enough for him to read for a few years, and there seemed to be no basic things in them, all of them were obscure.
"Where did you get all this stuff? Have you seen them all? How can there be such things as "Astronomical Star Calculation", "Imperial Calendar", and "Dengzhen Hidden Decision"? ”
Zilong listened to Jia Sixian's tone, as if he had heard these things, and was overjoyed, it seemed that the parchment roll that the old man stuffed into himself was really of great use.
So he hurriedly asked, "Do you know all the things on this?" ”
Jia Siqian nodded subconsciously, these things are miscellaneous classics, although it is useless for him to know, since the deposition of the Hundred Confucians, these things have basically been lost for a long time, there are many people who know them, and there are few people who understand the content.
However, seeing Zilong's reaction after seeing him nodding, Jia Siqian really couldn't bear to let him rejoice, so he didn't say that he could only recognize the words inside, but it was difficult to explain the meaning.
"What's the use of these things?"
"Look at it, is there any teaching of how to farm, and is there any record of what is suitable for planting and breeding here!"
Jia Siqian was speechless, although some of the content in this is related to agriculture, but the things that teach people to farm seem to have no systematic classics since ancient times!
Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared, but Jia Siqian did not clearly grasp this inspiration, but there was a faint feeling in his heart.
"You can cultivate without classics, but are the classics that have existed since ancient times, and they appear before the actual experience of farming?"
Zilong suddenly realized, yes, there must be an operation first, and then the experience can be summed up, and it will be written.
In fact, how simple this truth is, Zilong should have understood it a long time ago, but when he saw Jia Sixian, he thought of "Qi Min's Technique", and Zilong suddenly fell into a strange circle of taking it for granted.
At this time, as soon as Jia Siqian said it, he immediately realized.
"Well, yes, then don't talk about this, you have knowledge, tell me what we should do next?"
Jia Siqian thought for a while, and then said what he thought.
The next day, Zilong arranged according to the results of discussing the night with Jia Sixian.
First of all, Jia Sixian, as the most annoying member of the past, became the second person in Funiu Village after Zilong in a blink of an eye, and even Niu Yilang, the former big boss, had to listen to his command.
The position that Zilong arranged for him is called the chief commander of the construction of Funiu Village, which sounds quite awkward, not the villagers of Niu Village, even Jia Siqian doesn't understand, how Zilong came up with it.
And under Niu Yilang's envious, jealous and hateful eyes, Zilong gave him another position as a comfort, the construction and operation officer of Funiu Village, which was even more incomprehensible, and everyone didn't understand how Zilong could have so many whimsical new terms.
In the end, Zilong once again made a hands-off shopkeeper, Jia Siqian was responsible for command and scheduling, planning and preparation, and Niu Yilang was responsible for arranging supervision and implementation verification.
Although Niu Yilang had some opinions about Jia Sixian, an unsociable boy, out of trust in Zilong, he still pouted and listened to his command.
Zilong looked at this pair of brothers with one heart and one mind with satisfaction, arranging everything in Funiu Village, and a big stone in his heart finally landed, but his days of suffering had just begun.
Although everyone doesn't have much demand for the standard of living, at least food and clothing have to be solved, there are still some rations on Funiu Ridge, but they can't stand the unfilled stomachs of the new two hundred slave brothers!
took a few brothers, drove the cart seized from the private soldiers, a group of more than a dozen people, and set foot on the road to Tucheng, Niu Yilang has always asked Zilong to bring more people, what variables will there be in the province's soldiers, and it will be strong.
But Zilong felt that it was faster to travel lightly, so he didn't bring many people.
When I came to Tucheng, I found that in this era of war, even if there was food, there were few people who wanted to sell it, and it was not as confident as people who had food if they had money!
Indeed, in those days, corn and silk were hard currencies, and official currencies such as the five-baht coin were less liquid due to the change of political power.
In some remote places, there were even several five-baht coins in circulation at the same time, such as the Three Kingdoms, the Two Jin Dynasties and the Sixteen Kingdoms and the Northern Wei Dynasty, although the Northern Wei court had been urging a unified and stable currency, but with little success.
There are even some places where barter is still the main method of transaction, including Tucheng.
Tucheng is far away from the center of power of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the court decrees will take longer to arrive here, and the supervision of the implementation of some government decrees will be more lazy to regulate.
This is also the reason why the tribal alliance here is infighting, but no one cares about it, and it took so long to completely solve it with the participation of Zilong.
Zilong came to Tucheng, and when he arrived at the gate of the city, he was warmly welcomed by the four soldiers on duty, of course, Zilong gave them a reward, but he didn't dare to accept it.
Joke, this is the hero of the alliance leader's counterinsurgency, who dares to ask for his reward?
Don't reward it, it just so happens that Zilong has also saved, now is a special period, he would rather keep the money and buy more food.
During the Northern Wei Dynasty, the trading place was called the city, and Zilong went around the city, but he didn't find the owner of the bulk of the grain, at most, he took millet and oats for chickens and sheep.
In the end, there was really no way, so Zilong came up with Fei Lianbo's idea.
Last time, he helped Fei Lianbo take down the children of the family who disobeyed the orders of other tribes in one fell swoop, and Zilong had already made up his mind in his heart that he must deal less with Fei Lianbo unless it was a special moment.
This person can endure for so long, which shows that he is quite deep in the city, and this idea has been put on the back burner, but Fei Lianbo's discussion with Zilong in the broken earth house that night, and Fei Lianbo's behavior of taking Li Yu hostage after the discussion, made Zilong feel palpitations.
In the end, although Fei Lianbo happily fulfilled his promise, Zilong still felt that he must have a bigger conspiracy, of course, Zilong had no evidence, this was just a feeling.
However, the thought of cooperating with such a person made Zilong's heart uneasy.
Sitting on the side of the street, several brothers gathered together and chatted about their beautiful visions for the future, but Zilong was entangled on the side.
was struggling to see it, and suddenly heard a person next to him say in surprise: "It's you!" ”
There was some unwillingness, some surprise, some resentment, and some excitement in his tone, Zilong hurriedly looked up, and vaguely felt that he should have seen it.
Suddenly, the man approached, Zilong was in the shadows, and only to find that the owner of the face in front of him was Hou Mo Chen Yue, who was captured by himself that day.
Hou Mo Chen Yue is an understanding person, and he can be regarded as an outsider, after being captured by Zilong and given to Fei Lianbo, he realized that he was involved in a whirlpool of power for no reason.
He, Mo Chen Yue, was not considered an old local force, and originally wanted to improve his family's reputation in the Tucheng Tribal Alliance, so he volunteered to be the temporary leader of the alliance to encircle and suppress Funiu Village.
originally thought that after making meritorious contributions, he would be accepted by the local old nobles, but who knows, when he met Zilong, his nemesis, made him fall short, and he was beaten into a rebellious part by Fei Lianbo.
This is a great injustice, but what is the use of shouting injustice? Feleber didn't care if you were rebellious or not, he cared if you were loyal to him or not.
In the end, Hou Mo Chen Yue had to exchange the freedom and life of his eldest son for Fei Lianbo's trust.
Fei Lianbo heard Zilong talk about some of his views on Hou Mo Chen Yue, so he weighed it in his heart and thought that Hou Mo Chen Yue was quite reusable, so he gave him a chance instead.
After Hou Mo Chen Yue was caught inexplicably, he became the leader of the Tucheng Patrol in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect the recognition he wanted to ask for was actually realized because of a blessing in disguise.
Hou Mo Chen Yue really didn't know what to think of Zilong, he caught himself, he should hate him, but he didn't hurt his life, maybe he should be grateful to him, because he was involved in a power struggle, he should hate him, and because of the blessing of misfortune, he became the leader of the patrol, and he should be grateful to him.
At this time, seeing that Zilong actually came to Tucheng again, when he first saw it, his heart was full of anger, but after thinking about it, he didn't hate it so much.
When Zilong saw Hou Mo Chen Yue, he was overjoyed, and hugged Hou Mo Chen Yue's broad shoulders and pulled him to squat down on the side of the road, making Hou Mo Chen Yue feel very uncomfortable.
In the strange eyes of the two patrol private soldiers, Hou Mo Chen Yue waved his hand, asked them to retreat first, don't disturb, and began to listen to Zilong's story.
As soon as Zilong probably said the purpose of his trip, Hou Mo Chen Yue understood, he heard that Zilong actually gave those slaves freedom, and he couldn't help but be a little impressed by Zilong, but also a little incomprehensible.
Hearing that he built Funiu Village and was ready to provide a better living environment for everyone, he admired it in his heart, but when he wanted to find food, he couldn't help it.
"Uh...... Zilong ...... Childe ......"
For a while, let Hou Mo Chen Yue call Zilong brothers, he was really a little uncomfortable, so he simply called Zilong Gongzi.
"When you first come here, you may not know that the corn grains and chickens and sheep in Tucheng, as well as some rough iron and even some wood and medicinal herbs, began to have a priceless market as early as half a year ago!"
As soon as Zilong heard Hou Mo Chen Yue's words, he was suddenly shocked in his heart, these things seem to be strategic materials, and the price of strategic materials has risen, or they are controlled by others, which is a very obvious signal - war is not far away.
However, this place is located on the border between the Northern Wei Dynasty and Rouran, and the price increase of strategic materials may be to prepare for resisting Rouran, so Zilong did not delve into it.
"Isn't there a way to get a little bit? We don't need much! ”
After listening to Zilong's inquiry, Hou Mo Chen Yue was a little hesitant, if he really wanted to buy it, he knew a place, but Zilong was a newcomer, could he impress people?
"Well, well, maybe you can go there and check it out!"
As he spoke, Hou Mo Chen Yue raised his hand and pointed, Zilong looked in the direction he was pointing, and his heart was shocked!
