Chapter 267: Zhen Ping sends the ship
Lin Bei really couldn't understand.
According to the definition of hibernation, hibernation is an adaptation of animals to the adverse environmental conditions of the outside world, after falling into hibernation, the physiological state of these animals will drop to the lowest, so that they can survive the long winter safely, but Lin Bei is obviously not like this.
Lin Bei eats and drinks, and the external environment has little impact on him, so he really can't understand why his body still has signs of hibernation.
After waking up again, Lin Bei thought about how to get through this difficult period, in fact, he was not the same as Chijiao and the little green snake, the red Jiao and the little green snake are now hibernating, and he can still insist on waking up every day, which in itself means that he should actually be able to get through this period.
"Maybe hibernation is like people's night sleep, you can see all seasons of the snake except winter as daytime, winter as night, and it is feasible to stay up late, the key is to find the right way."
Lin Bei really didn't want to fall into a hibernation period of four or five months, and felt that it was too painful, so Lin Bei had to find a way.
"Maybe you can go to Hot Spring Island, right? Soak your body in the hot springs and use the heat of the hot springs to stimulate your instincts and get rid of them. β
Whether it works or not, this is also a method, and it is a more reliable method that Lin Bei thought of, so Lin Bei immediately instructed Cui Lan to prepare a boat for him, and let the boat take him to Fountain Island, if it can work, then Lin Bei will spend a winter on Fountain Island, compared to hibernation, Lin Bei can still accept it.
When he woke up again, Lin Bei had already arrived at Fountain Island, and his body had already soaked in the hot spring.
"My lord, are you awake? How does it feel? Cui Lan hurriedly said.
"The sergeants brought me here?"
"Yes."
"Good work." Lin Beike knew the size of his body.
"Leave this alone, sir, how do you feel now?" Cui Lan wiped the sweat from her face, it was too hot here. She just stood and did nothing, and she was so hot that she was sweating all over.
Lin Bei moved his body, "How long have I slept this time?" β
"Less than ten hours."
"Oh? Doesn't that seem to have some effect? I used to sleep at least 11 hours. β
"That's fine, what's wrong with your body? Don't you think it's too hot here? Standing here, Cui Lan felt that it was difficult to breathe, and her body was almost soaked with sweat.
Lin Bei shook his head and climbed out of this pool. Climbed to the largest fountain pool, first tested the temperature with his tail, this pool Lin Bei tried the temperature last time he came, it was almost seventy degrees, which can already be regarded as quite high, but at this moment, Lin Bei tried again, but found that he almost didn't feel hot, just felt slightly warm. But looking at the steam on the surface of the water, Lin Bei understood very well that the temperature of the water in this pool did not change at all.
"The last time I came, I felt hot, but this time I didn't feel it, although I had a molt in the middle, but the effect of that molt on the body was not obvious, so this can only be because of the hibernation period, it is because the body feels sluggish. So you can't feel the temperature hot? β
Lin Bei slowly slid into the pool, and a warm feeling came up. Lin Bei only felt refreshed and playful, but he felt that the temperature seemed to be a little low.
"Seventy degrees is still low, do you have to boil water?" Lin Bei was speechless.
Cui Lan followed, looking at the steam rising above the pool, "My lord." Don't you feel hot? β
"It's not enough temperature, Cui Lan, I remember there's a mountain pass over there, right? You send the sergeant down there to see if there are any hot springs, preferably even hotter than here. β
Cui Lan exhaled: "Okay lord." β
The spa was really useful. Anyway, this time Lin Bei was awake for four hours, about the same as usual, and the sergeants also came back from that crater, not to mention, they really found that there was a hot spring under the crater, and the temperature should be higher than here.
Lin Bei immediately got up and went to the crater, the sergeants knotted the rope into a rope ladder to go down, Lin Bei naturally didn't have to do this, slowly swam down against the wall, Lin Bei didn't observe the environment, the sergeant wiped his sweat and led the way, and led Lin Bei to the side, "My lord, this is the hot spring, my lord, try the temperature." β
The temperature here is quite high, the ground temperature alone is estimated to be more than fifty degrees, and the water in this hot spring pool is constantly churning, just like the water is boiling, Lin Bei tried the temperature again, and then slid down.
As soon as the water came, Lin Bei knew that it was coming, this temperature should be just right, I could feel warm, but I wouldn't feel too hot, of course, this was just Lin Bei's feeling, in fact, the temperature of this hot spring was at least eighty degrees higher.
"Okay, you go back, tell SΓΉ Cuilan, I'm down here, if anything, come to the mountain pass and shout, I'll go up to meet them."
"Okay, the villain is leaving." The sergeants hurriedly withdrew, they couldn't stand it to stay here.
Cui Lan heard the sergeant's report and asked, "Is that really what your lord said?" β
"Yes, General, that's exactly what your lord said."
"Then I know, you can go back by boat, inform Ansinon and Master, let them send some sergeants over, and in addition, send some men to come and prepare meals for the adults, and send more military ships around this island to patrol."
In this way, even if Lin Bei lived completely on Fountain Island, if something happened in Wanghai City, Bian Ji and An Zhongzhi and others would write a letter and ask the sergeants to transfer it to Lin Bei, although it was troublesome, but at least Lin Bei was sober, and sometimes Lin Bei would climb up and meet Cui Lan and others at the fountain.
In this way, December of the first year of Zhongping passed in a flash, according to the Gregorian calendar, it is considered that the year has passed, but if it is according to the lunar calendar, there are still two months before the Spring Festival.
Zhen Ping once again transported the Central Plains refugees to Wanghai City by boat, also about 2,000 people, and according to Lin Bei's instructions, there were many women among this group of refugees, because Bian Ji said that Lin Bei was slightly ill, so Zhen Ping also came to Fountain Island to visit Lin Bei, and Lin Bei was Zhen Ping who met at the fountain.
"Shopkeeper Zhen, you haven't sold the cement to the Central Plains?" Lin Bei asked.
Naturally, there are sergeants in Wanghai City who will listen to the news in Jiaozhi, and at first Lin Bei thought that Zhen would launch it as soon as he got the cement method, but he didn't know that more than a month had passed, and Zhen had no movement at all, and he was very calm.
"Your Excellency. We want to launch cement after the year, and although bicycles have been very popular in the Central Plains, there are still many people who do not have bicycles. β
Lin Bei understood that Zhen wanted to maximize profits, and waited until bicycles were completely popularized in the Central Plains, and the love for road construction became even higher before launching cement.
"Your Zhen family is really good at doing business." Lin Bei praised: "I'm afraid your Zhen family is already rich now, right?" β
Zhen Ping smiled and said he didn't dare. Then he said: "My Zhen family has now taken out a part of the rice grain, and the porridge is given to the homeless people, and the lord Hongfu is entrusted to the lord, and now my Zhen family has a very good reputation among the homeless people, and our patriarch must thank me on my behalf." β
"Don't thank me, as long as your Zhen clan can insist on doing this, no matter how the situation in the Central Plains changes in the future, your Zhen clan's status can be as safe as Mount Tai."
"It's all about the good words of adults."
"Really? Then don't you Zhen want to thank me? Why don't you give me a few hundred more big ships in Wanghai City? β
"Ugh. The adults laughed. "Zhen Ping has a black line, hundreds of big ships? Zhen didn't.
Lin Bei was also joking, and then remembered something and asked, "By the way, your Zhen family also has a business house in Yizhou, right?" β
"Well, there are indeed commercial houses, and adults need Yizhou's specialties?"
"Not really, I just wanted to ask you. Do you know what the situation is in Yizhou? β
Zhen Ping sorted out his thoughts before he said: "The situation in Yizhou is not very good now, can you know that Xuan (XI West) is this person?" β
"Xuan? Who is he? β
"It's the Yizhou pastor today. Its people are greedy, wantonly accumulate wealth, the people of North Vietnam are unbearable, and the funeral queen of Emperor Ling has been in trouble for more than two months, and he is frugal and sloppy. The war has not yet been settled, and now Guanghan County, Guanghan vassal country, Qianwei vassal country, and Yongchang County are all in the hands of the people. According to the villain, sooner or later this Jian Jian will die at the hands of the people. β
"The officers and soldiers can't even defeat the people? Impossible, right? β
"Now that the officers and soldiers are negligent in training and their armaments are exhausted, what is it strange that they are not opponents of the people? The ridiculous thing is that the Taishou of many counties in Yizhou are extremely dissatisfied with this frugality, and the people's hearts are different, according to the news that my Zhen's firm probed, these Taishou are now also looking down on the position of the state pastor, and the outside is uneven, and there is also internal strife, which is difficult. β
"It turns out that the situation in Yizhou is like this, so Yizhou people have a very low sense of belonging to Yizhou?"
Zhen Ping nodded: "That's true, if there is a benevolent and virtuous king at this time, there will inevitably be a crowd of followers, is it that the adults want to enter Yizhou?" β
Lin Bei smiled and said, "Do you think it's possible?" β
"If you want to enter Yizhou, you have to defeat the barbarian army of Jiaozhi first, although the adult is wise and powerful, I'm afraid" Although Zhen Ping didn't finish speaking, it is obvious that he is not very optimistic, the barbarian is already quite strong, after Liu Hong's death, due to the war in Jingyi and Jingyi, the common people of the two places went to Jiaozhi, and the barbarian all took over, and the power rose again, and Wanghai City was not bad, but the number of people was indeed too small, so Zhen Ping was not optimistic.
"Isn't there any other way to Yizhou?" Lin Bei laughed again.
Zhen Ping frowned, and suddenly said, "But the Lancang River?" Adults want to follow the Lancang River? β
Lin Beixin said that this Zhen Ping is also a talent, not only is he a good hand at business, but even the terrain of each state is also well known, in addition to his own ability, it is obvious that he also benefits from the exchange of information of Zhen's firm, it is precisely because Zhen's firm has business contacts in major states and counties, so the news will be so well-informed.
"So, do you think it's possible?"
Zhen Ping nodded and said: "It is naturally feasible, just build a big ship and control the section of the river, Yizhou is indeed like a thing in the adult's pocket, no wonder the adult will come here to look at the sea city, it turns out that the adult has a plan for a long time, and the vision is far-reaching, and the villain admires it." β
"I didn't think about becoming the owner of Yizhou." Lin Bei said.
"Why?" Zhen Ping asked strangely.
"There's no reason, I just don't want to, but I want the people of Yizhou."
Zhen Ping smiled dumbly, this adult's thoughts are really strange, he doesn't want to enter Yizhou, but he wants the people of Yizhou, does he want to move all the people of Yizhou to Wanghai City? Lin Bei seemed to understand Zhen Ping's thoughts, and nodded: "That's exactly what you think." β
In fact, the reason why Lin Bei doesn't want to settle in Yizhou is because Yizhou is estimated to have been taken by Liu Yan, Liu Yan is a member of the Han family, although Liu Hong is dead, the two sons are coerced, but the Liu family is still not completely defeated, Liu Yan's influence on the Han family is still quite large, he belongs to the kind of person who gathers in Zhen Ping's mouth, Liu Yan is not incompetent, he can run Yizhou in a short time, and now Wanghai City does not know how long it will take to open up the channel to Yizhou, maybe it will be opened up by then, Liu Yan has already run Yizhou like an iron bucket, and it is good to get some people back, unless Lin Bei and Liu Yan go to war, and may need to face a steady stream of heroes who want to kill him to make a name for themselves.
"If the adults want the people of Yizhou, they need to hurry, have the natives been conquered by the adults?" Zhen Ping asked.
Lin Bei shook his head and said a little depressedly: "Not yet, now I only control more than 2,000 miles of rivers in Wanghai City, which is far from Yizhou, and the reason is that there are too few boats."
Zhen Ping could only smile bitterly, what is this adult hinting at? In the end, Zhen Ping really gritted his teeth and said: "My lord, my Zhen family has always been good friends with adults, some time ago, the adults pointed out my Zhen family again, Zhen Ping has nothing to repay, since the adults lack boats, the villain will call the shots, send some boats and adults, and ask the adults to accept them." β
Lin Beiyi, this guy is so generous? Sending a ship?
"How many boats?"
"This time I still brought fifty big ships here, why don't I send forty ships, it's just a small courtesy, not a respect."
"But what does Zhen Rong mean?"
"It's not the patriarch's intention, it's the villain's intention." Zhen Ping's face was calm, he had already written a letter to Zhen Rong, although Zhen Rong replied, but he only asked Zhen Ping to thank Lin Bei for mentioning some good deeds, and did not say anything else, it can be seen that Zhen Rong is still optimistic about Yuan Shao, Lin Bei is still behind, but after Zhen Ping and Zhen Ding communicated, both of them felt that this Dragon God Lord was more powerful than Yuan Shao, and there was some hesitation about whether to violate Zhen Rong's intentions, Lin Bei hinted twice that there was no boat, Zhen Ping gritted his teeth, and sending charcoal in the snow is more meaningful than icing on the cake.
