Chapter 8, it's really easy to brush points (II)

After casually greeting the guards of the Egyptian royal palace, Wang Qiu took Mr. Miyamoto and walked along the corridor in the palace.

Overall, the Egyptian royal palace in Thebes was built and expanded over the centuries and was quite grand and extravagant. The main hall at the front, made of large boulders and huge carved stone pillars supporting the vast and magnificent palace, abounded with frescoes, reliefs, gold, silver and gem inlays, and was the place where the Egyptian kings and ministers conducted government affairs, received foreign envoys, and served as the offices of court officials.

At the back of the main hall is a large complex of scattered and exquisite small buildings, which belonged to the private harems of the pharaohs of the ages. Between the palaces, there are lush and beautiful flowers and trees, as well as pools and stone carvings. The architects deliberately created a large number of canals, ponds, and artificial waterfalls in the harem to keep the palace always cool and pleasant. Most of the pools are filled with lotus flowers, and the edges of the pools are overgrown with reeds and water birds frolicking. There is also the dense shade of date palms, Egyptian figs, palm trees, and delicate flower beds adorned with pomegranates and figs.

Although it cannot be compared with the elaborate and luxurious gardens of the modern West, it is already the pinnacle of architectural art in this era.

Miyamoto and Wang Qiu were walking slowly along the promenade full of grapevines, and a cool wind blew in front of them, and with the wind came a burst of girlish laughter: a petite girl with dazzling gold, dragging another black woman with amazing breasts, running around in the wide imperial garden, sometimes pointing at some rare bird and beast and chirping, and then laughing and trying to pick the lotus flowers in the pond, a gold-like head fluttering with her movements, and a large group of maids around her surrounded by laughter, There was also an older female officer who tried to stop her," ...... Princess Carroll, be careful not to fall into the water, if you get sick, King Memphis will be worried......"

- Obviously, these two are Princess Carrol, who is the daughter of the Nile, and Shizuka Jukawa, who is dyed black. From the beginning of their meeting, the two of them talked happily, chatted very energetically on various topics, and happily played around happily, like close friends.

Sure enough, as long as it's a cute thing with a natural stupid attribute, no matter how big or small the chest is, will there naturally be a common language?

Under the scorching sun of ancient Egypt, Shizuka Jukawa wore a light-colored dress with white flowers on a blue background and a straw hat decorated with feathers, just like an ordinary modern city girl in summer. Carrol, on the other hand, wore a white linen "chunic" decorated with gold ornaments, that is, a tubular bodice that hung from the chest to the ankles, a pair of filigree sandals on his feet, a necklace strung with emeralds, lapis lazuli, agate, amethyst and colored glaze pieces around his neck, and a gold tiara decorated with a cobra sculpture.

-- The beautiful and cool silk clothes that the travelers had given to Carol were not allowed to be worn by the Nile daughters in the name of "foreign fancy dresses, which are impolite to wear on our princesses." As for the "chunik" made of modern silk colors, the tailors of the Egyptian royal family were still working overtime and did not have time to make it......

In short, in terms of appearance, although different from those tall, busty and fat American movie stars in Hollywood movies, Miss Cairol Ledo does have the talent to become a heartthrob - although she has a petite Lori body like a doll, but she is indeed so beautiful that there is nothing to say: the skin is smooth and delicate like fine porcelain, and there is no flaw to find; The complexion is so fair that it is almost transparent, very different from the dark brown complexion of the natives of Egypt; The ** on the chest is continuing to swell vigorously, as full and delicious as a freshly ripe juicy fruit; The delicate face is picturesque, and a smile and a cheek are enough to hook people's souls. Of course, it is indeed too petite, but what is concentrated is the essence

And the handsome male protagonist with whom she staged a world-class love song, the Egyptian king Memphis in a black shawl, was practicing swordsmanship with General Unas, the captain of the palace garrison. No matter what era, the aesthetics of violence made of metal have a fatal attraction to men,

Because of the need to do intense sports, the Egyptian king did not wear a bulky crown, but was shirtless, with a short skirt around the waist and a short cloak on his shoulders - at this time, Indian cotton had not yet been introduced to Africa, and it was too hot to wear animal skins, so the ancient Egyptians generally used linen to make clothes, because it was not easy to dye, most people's clothes were white, and the nobles and royal families would decorate themselves with precious stones and gold to show their status

For example, the cloak of King Memphis was made of gold thread in the flax, which made him look like a heroic young god when he wore it, and he also put a golden armgear on his left arm, and a short sword hung from his waist, and the scabbard was inlaid with precious stones.

However, instead of using the magnificent-looking iron dagger at this time, Memphis wielded the all-steel folding knife that the traversers had just given him, and fought with General Unas, who was wielding a wooden sword on the other side—in general, Memphis was very satisfied with the new weapon. At the beginning, General Unas used his family heirloom bronze dagger to fight Memphis's folding knife, but in the hand-to-hand exercise, Memphis left a big gap in the opponent's weapon every time before he could use fifty percent of his strength. Within a few rounds, Memphis was forced to allow the opponent to suspend the fight under the strong protest of General Unas, who felt sorry for his weapon, and replaced it with a practice wooden sword that did not feel distressed even if he cut it.

When changing the wooden sword, Captain Unas also complained in a sour tone: "...... My king, though my knife is not as sharp as the iron of the Hittites, and not as good as your new toy, it is also an old friend who has accompanied me and my father in the battlefield for many years, and it is better to keep it in my hand for a few more days until I find another more handy companion, and not to carve more scars into it with your new gadget.

However, such an unstoppable divine weapon, in the hands of those powerful foreigners, is just a gadget for cutting fruit in ordinary people's homes, and it is really a tyrannical thing Recalling last night's concubine Carol's indifferent rhetoric, King Memphis couldn't help but feel a little angry.

However, for a guy who can control such a behemoth soaring into the sky, a few sharp swords may indeed be nothing.

He looked up at the huge airship still hanging over the palace, and then at a few strangers in strange costumes not far away, who were holding delicate gadgets, ploughing and sowing seeds in a corner of the royal garden, supposedly to offer the palace a few new plants that had not been available in Egypt before.

-- The gardens of the ancient royal palaces were often also botanical gardens for the study of industry, for experimenting with the cultivation of novelty crops brought by distant envoys or merchants.

…… Well, I don't know what kind of surprise they will bring to themselves this time...... Or what about fright?

Under the thick shade of date palms, the young king of Egypt thought with mixed feelings as he wiped his face with a damp cloth dipped in water.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

“…… Asami-chan, don't stay still, hurry up and sift through the sand, if it mixes with stones or insects, it won't be good. ”

In the vegetable garden of the Egyptian royal palace, an elderly Japanese policewoman is reprimanding another cute little policewoman.

They are the former inspector Matsushima Miyu and Nakaoka Mimae who escaped from the zombie apocalypse, and now they are also participating in the Otherworld Colonization Pioneer Group with their boss Miyamoto Masao. At present, because he was born in the countryside and has done farm work, he was caught by Wang Qiu and Doraemon, and took a sieve and a small shovel to plant strawberries native to America in the garden, as a gift, so that Carol and Memphis and other "landlords" can taste it.

-- Strawberry seeds are very small, so they must be very delicate when planting. It is not only necessary to rake the ridges of the field with a rake in advance to avoid the slope of the ground, but also to use the sieved fine sandy loam mixed with a part of the humus soil that has also been screened, and spread it on the ground as a seedbed, instead of directly using the viscous fertile soil on the banks of the Nile, so as not to make the soil too strong and make it difficult for strawberry seeds to emerge. However, sand should not be used alone to avoid nutrient deficiencies.

As a result, Asami Nakaoka, who was assigned the task of sifting soil by her seniors, soon felt that her arm shaking the sieve was so sore that it was about to break.

By contrast, the young man who planted the sunflowers next to him was much more relaxed, and he only had to poke small holes in the fertile soil on the banks of the Nile with a stick, put the raw sunflower seeds in the holes with the tips pointing down, water them again, and wait for them to sprout.

(Many people may not know that the sunflower, the national flower of the Soviet Union, is also native to the Americas and was brought back by the Spaniards in the 16th century.) ）

And this is also the typical agricultural form that the ancient Egyptians were blessed with - the Nile, with its gentle water and regular flooding, was like a tireless and industrious mother, who automatically helped the Egyptians to complete the hard work of irrigation and fertilization every year, and the ancient Egyptian farmers only needed to pinch the time to sow the seeds and then wait patiently for the harvest.

What makes the hard-working Chinese peasants even more jealous is that the output of such extensive agriculture that relies on the weather for food can still be the best in the world

- That is why the Greeks would say with envy: "Egypt is a gift from the Nile."

To get back to the point, while sifting through the sand and soil hard, Asami Nakaoka also peeked at the Egyptian king Memphis who was practicing swordsmanship in the distance from time to time.

Speaking of which, Nakaoka Asami, a little policewoman who is a bit of a natural stay, was once one of the loyal readers of "Daughter of the Nile".

I remember that she was young at the time, her mind was full of pink dreams, and when she saw "Daughter of the Nile" for the first time, she was attracted to the magnificent artistic conception, profound time and space, grand history, and poignant love, and fell into it, and since then she has become a fan of this girl's comic masterpiece.

She loved the imposing temple in the book;

She loved the king who galloped through the wilderness in the book;

She loved the hymns in the book that pious praise to the gods;

She loved the priest with the mysterious smile in the book.

The surging ocean and the grand battlefield have created a heart-wrenching love epic;

The duel that is intertwined with ambition and domineering, full of wisdom and strength, adds an incomparable brightness to the beauty of the peerless red face.

After learning that these post-apocalyptic refugees were going to migrate to the world of "Daughter of the Nile", Asami Nakaoka still had a trace of expectation and longing - even if she didn't expect to grab a man with the heroine, it should be a very happy thing to be able to admire so many beautiful men with her own eyes.

However, not long after entering the Egyptian royal palace and seeing the protagonists of these plots with her own eyes, the dreams and longings in her heart were completely shattered.

King Memphis's appearance is indeed as handsome as in the comics, but his character is indeed as cruel as that of a tyrant in a slave country.

In just one morning, Nakaoka Asami saw from a distance that the king of Memphis had himself smashed the head of a wronged slave in a fit of rage, and ordered two criminals to be tied up and thrown into a pool to feed the crocodiles. Then, in the midst of the criminal's dying screams, he happily picked a bouquet of flowers stained with morning dew and sent them to Carrol, who was still sleeping, to pay tribute, leaving only the smiling whispers of the female officers behind him.

By the time the innocent and kind-hearted Carol had breakfast and wandered around the garden, the crocodile pond had already been cleaned of the corpses. She would only stand by the pool, happily feeding the crocodiles with raw meat, and strangely enough to see that Mr. Crocodile didn't seem to have a good appetite and couldn't eat much...... I had no idea what a terrible tragedy had happened here just a few hours ago.

Yes? You say that in such a bloody and terrifying court, why do the palace ladies dare to play and laugh?

This is because all the ladies of the court who have a little status are basically the descendants of nobles or high-ranking officials, so King Memphis treats them politely, although they are as rude as they are aroused, but at least they are not dragged out and strangled for no reason or for amusement......

If this is true of King Memphis as the protagonist and positive character of the romance comics, then the Assyrian king of Yaran, the king of Babylon Lagsha, and the Hittite prince Izmi, who are both righteous and evil, cannot be counted on their humanitarian and human rights concepts.

Alas, the girl's dream is so beautiful, but the cold reality is so cruel

From ancient times to the present, what ruler can be said to be absolutely pure under his ass? As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Of course, whether the court life in Thebes was terrifying or pleasant, this qiē had nothing to do with the Japanese immigrants from the last days.

The only reason why Matsushima Miyumae, Nakaoka Asamimae, and the remaining Japanese with farming experience were in the imperial gardens of this royal palace was to serve the Nile's daughters, Kairol and King Memphis, by planting crops that did not exist in ancient Egypt in this era, so as to enrich their tables and gardens, show their abilities, and earn money to build new homes in the future.

The first batch of planting projects are strawberries and sunflowers, which are more adaptable to the environment.

“… Well, Miss Carole, the strawberries have been planted and you will have fresh strawberries to taste in a few months."

Wiping the sweat from her forehead, Miki Matsushima stood up from the vegetable bed and said to Carol, who came over curiously, "...... As long as you water every day, keep the soil moist, and remove weeds frequently, you will be able to harvest strawberries every year for the next three years......"

“…… Yes? How many more months have to wait? Cairol's expression was a little disappointed, "...... But people really want to eat it right away."

-- In response to such excessive demands, the three Japanese "agricultural technicians" could only say that they could not do anything, and at most asked Dorae to buy a batch of strawberries from the future to satisfy the hunger of His Royal Highness, the daughter of the Nile...... But Doraemon himself apparently has a better way.

“…… If you want to eat strawberries quickly, it's not impossible to do it, but you need to use this [Time Wrapper]"

Doraemon, who had just returned from a walk around the palace, stood on the ridge of this small vegetable field, and proudly took out the [Time Wrapper] from his belly pocket, showing off to everyone, "...... Look at this, I can get this field into harvest in the blink of an eye."

-- After a while, the bare vegetable bed, which had been bare with a large area of earth, was covered with green vines and blades of grass, and bright red strawberries dotted it like bright rubies, tempting the mouth to flow and the index finger to move...... There are also golden sunflowers, standing proudly against the scorching Egyptian sun, like vigilant sentinels.

“…… Wow, it looks delicious," and despite the dissuasion of the palace maids, Carol threw himself into the strawberry bush with bright eyes, picked a red strawberry and stuffed it into his mouth, "...... Well, it's so sweet, Memphis, you have one, I'll feed you."

“…… Carole, don't eat indiscriminately, you have to ask the medical officer to check the fruit first."

“… I hate to check what to make it so troubleManfes This fruit is called strawberry, but it's delicious, I used to eat it...... Ah--how about someone who won't hurt you? It tastes pretty good, right?"

“…… Well, it feels okay to eat...... But what is that golden flower? Is it also edible? ”

“…… This flower is called a sunflower, and it is said that the flower plate is always facing the sun, and it will rotate on its own, oh, as for the use, this thing is not a fruit, it should not be edible, right, but it seems that it can be used to extract oil? ”

Putting aside the tugging and chattering between this pair of lovers who have traveled through time and space, on the other side of this vegetable bed, Wang Qiu and Doraemon are holding the "Book of Travel" dumbfounded-without any prior expectation, there are actually reward points in the account:

“…… Introducing strawberries that didn't have zài before Ancient Egypt grants 2o bonus points. ”

“…… Introduce sunflowers that did not exist in the Zài before Ancient Egypt and gain 3o bonus points. ”

“…… With a total of 156 points, we look forward to your continued efforts. ”

- Huh? So, if you want to score points on this plane, wouldn't you just need to sow more seeds of different crops?

So, after exchanging opinions, Doraemon and Wang Qiu drove a large number of Japanese immigrants to work together to carry out a great dumping of exotic crops against the ancient Egyptians -- corn, sweet potatoes, potatoes, pumpkins, peanuts, tomatoes, cacti, green peppers and peppers native to the Americas, peaches, oranges, water spinach and rice native to China, sugar cane and cotton native to India...... There are also some exotic fruits and vegetables that Doraemon got from the 22nd century. Each increase in the new crop shows bonus points ranging from 26 to 156 points in the Book of Travel

By the time they had figured out all the crops and ornamental plants they could think of, the sweaty and half-dead Japanese immigrants had already planted their plants from the Imperial Garden to the Imperial Grange near the palace, and even the Yure Desert far from the Nile (where cacti were planted), attracting a large number of Egyptian locals and foreign travelers...... But the results are also rich, and the reward points obtained have reached more than 30,000

In short, based on the above practical experience, it is really easy for the time-travelers to brush up points in this time and space.

But on the other hand, if you want to make money from this Theban city, and you want to make a lot of money, it feels very difficult.

In this regard, Ms. Nan Lixiang and Senior Sister Ma Tong, who are sitting in a stall in a hall somewhere, definitely have a deep understanding......
