Chapter 225: Set up the flowing water seat again
"Hurry up, run! All concentrated!! "The sergeants blew horns, waved sticks and whips, and brought the natives together.
Nearly 2,000 natives stood together tremblingly, some men and women, some tall and some short, most of these people could not understand Chinese, and could only passively accept the arrangements of the sergeants, but at this time there was some fear on their faces, they are now a little accustomed to coming out to work at dawn every day, and today they did a good job, and before lunchtime, they were rushed together by the sergeants, they probably thought that the sergeants were going to kill them.
Lu Xiong stood on the high platform, looking down at these natives, his face was calm, he was a centurion in the army, and he was appointed as the steward of these natives at this moment, worshipping the dragon god, Lu Xiong faithfully carried out the orders of Lin Bei and An Zhongzhi.
"You're lucky to wait." Lu Xiong opened his mouth and said, although he felt that even if these natives were all dead, it would be no problem, but he still had to carry out the order of Lord Dragon God: "Today's lord ordered, the whole city is congratulatory, although you are my slave of Wanghai City, but the adults are merciful, so you don't have to work today, and there is still delicious food waiting for you."
Lu Xiong paused, some of the natives could understand Chinese, so at this time, these natives turned their heads and ears, and their faces were shining, it turned out to be a good thing, there was no need to work today, and there was delicious food.
"You are waiting for today, it is all from Lord Ryujin, so you must know how to be grateful!!" This sentence, Lu Xiong shouted loudly, "The sergeant will untie the wooden shackles on your hands and send you back to the city to eat, if anyone dares to escape, one of you will have no food for a day, and if you run away, add another day, if you run away, three people." You're just waiting to starve to death, do you understand? ”
Naturally, the natives would not answer neatly, but Lu Xiong had finished speaking, and with a wave of his hand, the soldiers rushed up and drove these natives towards Wanghai City. When you are outside the city, you will untie the wooden shackles in your hands.
At this time, the two long streets of Wanghai in Wanghai City have been set up on the flowing water seats to celebrate the success of the steam carriage, and the two streets are crowded with people, all of them are beaming with joy and full of festive atmosphere.
When the flowing water seat was in Hepu County, the heroes were forced by Lin Bei to put it once, and the flowing water seat was already counted on Lin Bei's head, so this time to celebrate, the Wanghai people set up the flowing water seat again. However, this time the flowing water seat is only one day, not three days, and the Wanghai people are not forced, and they are willing to set up the flowing water seat.
In addition, the current products of Wanghai City are not comparable to those of Hepu County, and the biggest difference is that there are many fish, shells, and crabs in the food. Lobsters, small fish and much more. They were all fishermen from the sea, and they couldn't be made into fish floss, so they took the opportunity to take them out and let everyone enjoy them.
At this moment, the most eye-catching thing in the long street is the fifty bonfires set up, on which all meat is roasted. There are sheep, cattle and pigs, among which Lin Bei also offered more than 20 tuna.
After the 21st century, there are quite few tuna that can be caught in the sea, but in this era there are very many. How do you know that when you get out of the sea, you will encounter a group of black tuna, that is, bluefin tuna, all of which are six or seven meters long, so Lin Bei had no choice but to laugh and catch twenty-three back, which is only one-tenth of the fish volume for the entire tuna school.
The smell of salt, oil and sauce in the baked food fills the city, and everyone feels hungry when they smell it.
Lin Bei, An Zhongzhi and Bian Ji naturally have to have fun with the people, just in front of the three of them there are two fires, one is tuna roasted on the fire, and the other is a suckling sheep roasted on the fire, Feng Niangzi's face is flushed, and she personally roasted it for Lin Bei.
"Did you send the news from Linjiang City?" Lin Bei asked.
"The news has been sent, and the celebration has been notified." An Zhong replied directly, and shouted again: "Feng Niangzi, come and rest for a while." ”
Feng Niangzi turned around, "It's a little woman's honor to be able to bake food for adults, pavilion chiefs and masters, my lord, it's going to be good right away." ”
Lin Bei nodded at her and expressed her approval, this little lady's personality is really good, and now she is a figure with a head and a face in Wanghai City, I heard that there are many people who want to ask for marriage, but she refuses and insists on not marrying.
Bian Ji said softly: "My lord, now that the steam carriage has been built, what should I do next?" ”
"Spread it, so that all of us can use it." Lin Bei said without hesitation: "The other is to improve, although the steam carriage is very good, but it is not easy to carry the boiler, and there is a lack of power, so it needs to be improved." ”
"Ah" An Zhong was surprised: "If you make it, you have to improve it?" Can the craftsmen do it? ”
"It's not that it's going to be improved right away, it's going to take a long time, so you don't have to worry, by the way, the ship has to be fitted with a steam engine."
"If you can install a steam engine on the ship, then it will definitely get faster, right?"
"Well, it's faster than a horse-drawn carriage, so the boatmen's skills have to be improved, and bigger ships need to be built."
Ocean transportation is the bulk of the transportation industry in later generations, those cargo ships with huge displacement can carry much more than the cargo, Wanghai City is close to the sea, marine transportation is also a direction that Lin Bei will focus on in the future, his goal is the sea of stars, the stars can not be conquered temporarily, then you have to start from the sea.
"You really need a bigger boat, otherwise the sea is very stormy, and if the ship is not big, one wave can be overturned." An Zhongzhi still has lingering fears about the last typhoon incident, but he has some doubts, how big is the ship that can resist this kind of wind and waves?
"A big ship of one or two hundred feet." Lin Bei said an approximate number.
One or two hundred zhang? An Zhongzhi and Bian Ji felt that the corners of their mouths only twitched, how difficult is this? It is certainly not possible to build it out of wood, and it may be possible to build such a large ship only with the newly invented steel, but think of how proud it would be if it did.
At this time, the people of Wanghai City were already eating the food on the flowing water mat, and several children gathered together, ran towards Lin Bei, and then knelt down, and said in a crisp voice: "My lord, my father and my mother asked me to kowtow to the adults." ”
Lin Bei was speechless, and a few little fart children slammed up, quite sincere, Lin Bei hurriedly let them get up, and said with a smile: "Then the adults will accept it, have you eaten?" ”
"I ate a big leg of meat."
"Your Excellency. I ate a ball of rice cakes. ”
"My lord, I also ate a piece of meat."
"Are you full?" Lin Bei asked again.
"No," the little kids replied in unison.
"Then you have to eat enough today, you see, Lord Ben has to eat a lot of food, and you have to learn from me."
"It's too big for us to eat"
Lin Bei laughed. Then he thought of something and asked, "Do you all endorse it?" ”
"Carried it."
"Have you finished memorizing the Book of Songs?"
"Nope"
"My lord, I'm done reciting."
"I'm done with it, too."
"Okay, then you can recite it to Lord Ben."
One by one, these little children shook their heads and began to memorize the poems, and if they memorized them wrongly, they would be pointed out by the children on the side.
"I'm not mistaken."
"Wrong, wrong, wrong."
"My lord, he bullied me."
"My lord, I didn't bully her. It's really a mistake."
Lin Bei couldn't help but laugh, and in the end, one of the most outstanding little girls was picked out, this little girl was only five or six years old, combed with a small discernment, her face was clean, and she was extremely pleasing, Lin Bei had always liked children. When I saw this little girl, I thought of Lin Rou. So he said softly, "What reward do you want?" ”
The little girl looked back at her parents in the distance, and then turned around and said, "Adults want to live a long life, bless my father and my mother to live a long life." ”
Lin Bei laughed: "Okay, Lord Ben will definitely live a long life, and I will also bless your father and mother to live a long life, and when you grow up." Just like them" Lin Bei pointed at An Zhongzhi and Bian Ji with his tail: "How about doing things for this adult?" ”
The little girl straightened her chest: "Okay, my lord, I want to be the chief of the guard"
An Zhongzhi and Bian Ji were originally looking at it with a smile, but their faces changed at this time, and they said in their hearts that they were unscrupulous. Don't be angry.
Lin Bei still smiled and groaned: "Okay, then it's decided, when you grow up and learn the art of martial arts, you will come to be the commander and general of Lord Ben and help Lord Ben fight those villains." ”
Afterwards, Lin Bei said to the children on the side: "You wait, you need to work hard, and you must aspire to be a general." ”
When these children ran away, Lin Bei sighed, and Bian Ji said softly: "Adult, did you remember Cui Lan." ”
Lin Bei nodded: "I thought of Cui Lan, but when I saw these children, I also thought of the tomorrow of our Wanghai City, they are the hope of the future." ”
"With the encouragement of adults, these children can't really produce generals and marshals." An Zhong said with a straight smile.
"I hope so, by the way, now that the second batch of paper has been made, it's time to print a second kind of book, right?"
"Yes, my lord, we're preparing." Bian Ji is in charge of this matter.
Subsequently, the conversation between the three of them was interrupted, and they couldn't go on any longer, because many commoners and sergeants came to give Lin Bei a toast and offer food, and in this case, it was not good for Lin Bei to snub anyone, so he drank all the wine and ate the food, and at the same time had to encourage these people one by one, he had become more and more accustomed to doing some things that the superior should do.
However, the result of eating and drinking in the sea is that Lin Bei is a little drunk, although the wine in this era is very low, he can't stand drinking too much, more than ten or twenty barrels of wine are poured into his stomach, Lin Bei is a little confused.
"Wood, use more snacks, I'm optimistic about you." Lin Bei's tongue was a little bigger, "Don't let me down." ”
"Master Li, don't be proud, the quality of steel can still be improved, in the future, our warships and cannons in Wanghai City will rely on you blacksmiths, work hard, struggle" The blind man Li's one eye was a little confused, he knew the warship, what was the cannon?
When night fell, the people of Wanghai City wore colorful costumes, even the women in the pavilion boudoir also took to the streets, singing and dancing, many songs Lin Bei still didn't understand, but he thought it was very good, and the dance was good-looking, Lin Bei's body kept twisting and twisting with the beat, An Zhongzhi and Bian Ji both turned their heads, and felt unbearable.
On the other side, at the wooden hut where the natives were imprisoned, the natives were also eating and drinking desperately, hearing the singing from the city, some of the natives had tears on their faces, and one of the natives knelt down and kowtowed respectfully in the direction of the city lord's mansion, and the sergeants saw it and did not stop it.
Lin Bei finally drank too much, but fortunately, he was still a little sane before he got drunk, so he dragged himself back to the City Lord's Mansion, fell asleep on the bed.
On the second day, the sky was bright, Lin Bei only felt that his body was extremely heavy, and there was a buzzing sound in his head, he barely opened his eyes, and when he was completely awake, Lin Bei felt that something was really wrong with his body, and looked down, this look almost made Lin Bei jump up from the bed.
