Chapter 247: Caught off guard

Due to the vast territory of Tibet, the cold-tolerant and drought-tolerant crops of the barley plateau are planted in different regions, and the growth cycle is roughly divided into four categories, with a cycle of about six months to ten months.

If we want to further understand the growth habits of highland barley, it is necessary to conduct long-term squatting research in Jiannan area, and even if new hybrid species can appear, there is no guarantee that they can survive in the whole territory of Tibet, and even if they survive, the yield will vary greatly under the limitation of climate and geographical conditions. The Tibetan people are extremely cautious about the barley seeds in their hands, which is the grace of the gods, and is locally called 'holy wheat', where to plant what varieties have been passed down for a long time, and it is not official to exchange it if you want to, and the Tubo government has not reached such a high degree of centralization.

It seems that Lanling's idea is good, and it has reached a new level in creativity, but it is seriously detached from the general environment, and the feasibility is zero.

"That's right." Lan Ling was not depressed, and carefully recorded the habits of barley that I conveyed, "At least I know what is wrong." Let's take a look at this newspaper," he waved his hand and laughed, "I'll read it to you." ”

The Tibetan people are roughly divided into three categories: those who live on nomadism account for forty percent, those who have a fixed habitat and those who make a living from agriculture are about fifty percent, and nearly one percent* of the people are full of artisans, merchants, and a small number of scholars (witch doctors and monks are all classified as scholars, and their status in the local area is prominent, and in some areas they are even above the tribal brain).

Part of the newspaper in Lanling was from a clergyman of a large tribe in southern Tibet who depended on agriculture to survive, and the reduction of production and foreign wars caused this tribe to have an unprecedented existential crisis.

"This is just one example. No less than ten letters like this have been received, all of whom are willing to pay high prices. Lanling was afraid of missing something, so he browsed the newspaper again: "The vast majority of the Tubo people adjacent to Jiannan are mainly engaged in agriculture, and their business contacts with our dynasty are relatively frequent. ”

"What about language and habits?" Lanling's meaning is clear, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "I mean, are they more like us than the people in the interior of Tibet?"

Lan Ling glanced at me, and a tacit smile bloomed, "Compared with your two mothers-in-law, am I more suitable to be your wife?" ”

"Go!" Chao Lanling pinched his nose, "When it comes to business, you don't have to interrupt." ”

"What's the hurry?" Lanling leaned over and poked me lightly in the ribs a few times, "Did you poke the sore spot?" ”

"It's not over?" Give Lan Ling's hand open: "I'm in adolescence now, lean over again, and don't blame me for being right to people." "Get her out of the way." Let's talk about things first, if we still have time, we can do something else. ”

Lan Ling covered his mouth and snickered: "You have finished talking about the barley." As for the others, "pointing to the newspaper on the table" in duplicate, it is not only discussed between you and me. The same topic was also discussed in Xingqing Palace. In that case, can't we be lazy? ”

It seems that the emperor does not stop Lan Ling's words have greatly increased my interest, I don't know what kind of discussion mode Li Zhi and Wu mm are, if they have the same method as the two of us, ...... "Or are they also lazy?" ”

"I don't want to speak," Lan Lingka bit down dissatisfiedly on me, "It's delicious." ”

"What's the smell?"

"Sweaty ......" adjusts the rhythm of the lower breath "panting...... Don't be lazy if you can't speak......"

Recently, it has been a bit ridiculous, maybe it has something to do with the diet, maybe the watermelon in the Tang Dynasty is a little more nourishing, anyway, the energy is much more abundant than before, just like the recent continuous rain.

After continuous repair and transformation, Wangjia Zhuangzi's resistance to rain has been continuously improved, and the lime sand soil rammed foundation has become more reliable. Brave the rain to patrol around, except for three or two households in the new Zhuangzi, there is no big deal except that the pool needs to be evacuated a little.

took off her clothes and brought a bowl of hot tea to drive away the dampness, and was about to call the second daughter to come over, pinch her waist and beat her legs, and rushed in in a hurry, "Don't get tired of sending people over there." ”

"Send ...... Person? I didn't understand, and I was stunned for a while, "Who is it?" ”

"Labor sends labor." Ying pulled the second daughter who was riding on my lap aside, "I don't send it before, I don't send it at night, but I stand in the rain when I come here on a rainy day." ”

"Hulai!" A bone got up from the kang. What is the Cui family doing, isn't it that it takes more months to come, the Wang family is pinch and prepare on time, and now the dormitory has not even been completed, where should I settle it? "How many?"

"Said it was the first group of three hundred and twenty." Ying squatted down and put galoshes on my feet: "The second daughter hurry up and help Lao Qian get the people together first, and my husband and I will come later." ”

"Order, what" grabbed the second daughter, "You two are not allowed to go!" So many people can't keep from having sick people looking for death? Give the old money back too. ”

"What should I do?" Ying also panicked when she heard me say this, threw her shoes, stood up, looked outside, and called a little maid to go to the housekeeper to pass the word. "This rain looks big, this can't work, that doesn't work, hundreds of people standing in the rain is not a way."

"Stand first! Summer isn't over yet, and people can't freeze to death! "There's no effort to be verbose. My mind was resting, and there was a sound outside the door, and when I saw Dalai running over in a hurry, I didn't have the reserved station I used to have, and I wanted to talk to me. "Shut up!" Drink in front of her, "The second daughter smacked their mouths, and there was no way to return them." Find two mothers-in-law to get out! "At this time, they can't come to Dalai by their temperament, I understand, but in these years, the epidemic prevention methods are backward, and they are not afraid of anything, they are afraid that they will be infected with the plague, especially in war-torn areas, there are often inexplicable strange diseases, and it is difficult to control them, and in the end, the government can only lock down the scene and destroy the collective humanity.

The second daughter's words to me were never carried out unconditionally, and the two big mouths twitched Dalai so much that he rolled on the ground and made no sound. After a while, the two women who were doing chores came in and carried them: "Just throw it into the room, and fan it if I don't tell you to come out!" ”

"Go and tell the maid at home to donate all the old clothes that you don't wear, and if you don't have enough, ask the housekeeper to take someone to the village to collect it. Hurriedly! "Now that the living conditions in Zhuangzi are better, the woman's family has more or less two changes of clothes to be cleaned thoroughly." Wait, is there anyone nearby who can shave their heads? ”

"Shaved your head?" Ying was puzzled, thought for a while, and nodded: "Yes, there are a few old mages in the Jinguang Temple in Ximenli, and maybe." ”

"Ask the mage to shave one for Wuwen. Three hundred and twenty lots of price consistent five. Place the group of people in the cave to the farmer's house first, and drive the group of people to the cave. "At the very least, the knowledge of epidemic prevention is still a little bit, and the root cause of the epidemic must be effectively suppressed first. In this era, I don't shave my beard, I don't shave my head, I live a happy life, I have a lot of money, and I am full of energy. "If you have shaved hair, prepare some lime to wash first."

Ying gently pulled my sleeve and said softly, "The women's temple is probably not coming." ”

"Oh" rubbed his hands in embarrassment, "no more?" ”

"Hou Murakami's mother-in-law may ......," Ying said embarrassedly, and the two mothers-in-law guarding the door in the yard pointed out, "Send one to call?" ”

"That's cheaper. A head three articles. All shaved consistently. "I'll wrench my chin," called Dr. Zhou, his brother, and he brushed the animals. Hurry up and let me go out and have a look. ”

Put on his coat again, came to the courtyard, pushed the door of the wing, looked in, looked in, and Dalaiwo came to the bed, crying and sobbing, "You come out." ”

Dalai hurriedly wiped the swollen face and came to me, it seems that the second woman's hands are not small, and the five fingers are printed neatly.

"There are also a few large spare factories in the weaving workshop, go to the front yard and pick some people to clean up. Boil a few pots of ginger water, boil some vinegar, and send it over when it is distributed here. I said to Dalai with a blank face, at this time, she was most anxious, after all, there were many Korean folks, and the senseless sympathy and danger factor were too high to give Dalai a chance. Said coldly: "Since Ming'er, the workshop has been closed for two days, and don't let me see you and talk to those people if you are close." I will not punish you for saying a word, and throw a man into the canal, and the water will rise, and he will drown, and he will die. ”

Dallai shivered, looked at me in horror, nodded vigorously, turned away, and looked back at me twice in the middle.

The cave is not small, a few caves are really the top thing, and a stove room is cleaned up for disinfection and shaving, and the rest are stuffed in the kiln first. Since the family is not easy to contact, more than a dozen escorts happen to do the work, all of them are big men, one person stuffed 200 wen, the tip led by 400 wen, get it in his hand, he is busy with life, and the long bamboo pole is horizontal, and he rushes towards the cave.

"How can it be so small?" There were a lot of children mixed in a group of women in ragged clothes, some of whom looked only four or five years old, dry and thin, and even more inhumane in the rain.

"I asked and I came with my mother. This time, the Cui family saved the capital in order to survive, and the big board car was pulled over, and they didn't suffer any crimes on the road. If you come so young, I'm afraid I won't survive. Steward Qian looked at the crowd who were driven away like the cattle from afar, and said sadly: "I haven't seen this situation for many years, I'm used to seeing the dolls like calves in our Zhuangzi, and when I compare them like this, it feels the same as the one that crawled up from the underworld." ”

"I'm afraid it's not much stronger than the underworld," Liang Jianfang's Hades face came to mind again. The means of suppressing the mob have been sublimated in the hands of Lao Immortal, think about the bestiality when Lao Liang suppressed the rebellion, these people should be considered lucky, at least they can come to the Wang family alive, as long as I don't die, I can still ensure that they live in peace for the rest of their lives. "Is the meal ready?"

"It's thin, I'm afraid of the dead, I'm in a hurry on the way to give it away, and I can't eat much along the way." Lao Qian pointed to the traffickers, "Lu San can also be regarded as a human trafficker, although he will not end well in this business, but he will also keep his integrity." This time, I took over the work of the Cui family, and the labor behind our family still had to rely on him, and we would come to kowtow to Hou Ye when we cleaned up later. ”

"Oh? Kowtow? I tightened my coat and looked at the big man in the distance, "What kind of rule is this?" ”

"He said that Hou Ye saved his father back then." The butler pulled me back under the eaves, "You forgot?" ”

"If you say anything, you have long forgotten what you should do, and you can kowtow." It is estimated that Wang Xiu's previous failures have nothing to do with me.

"He said how did you forget the year before last?" The housekeeper looked at me suspiciously, and I could see that he was concerned about my health.

"The year before last?" Scratching my head, I saved people the year before last? I'm not usually a good helper. It is more advocating the evolutionary law of nature and not deliberately interfering with the survival of the fittest.

"Didn't you go and treat the British Duke and cure his father by the way?" The housekeeper reminded me and looked at me worriedly, "Think about it again, think about it." ”

"Oh," I patted my head, and that day I found a few patients to do clinical work. Both prisoners and patients have long been unable to tell who is who. "Then even if I saved it, hehe......"

The housekeeper also showed a reassuring smile: "Master Hou, you have an old man at home, go over the cave and take a look." ”

"There are some things that I have to supervise in the past." He called a few guards to follow and went to the dirt slope with the old housekeeper.

A total of four Wen Po Sanwen shaved one, which is indeed very cost-effective. He was boiling hot water in the stove room next to the cave, and Dr. Zhou was mixing dilute lime water on the side. Seeing me and the housekeeper coming in, we bowed our heads and went to get busy, but a few stable women came over to greet me with a smile.

They are all kind-hearted old women, dressed in short clothes, looking neat and neat, and there are many words that claim that Wang Xiu, who delivered her back then, made me have to make a trick for her. "Wait a minute, don't be busy. Disinfect the poison first and let Dr. Zhou diagnose it. "It is a dangerous operation, prepare a few jars of wine, clean linen, fold a few layers, sew a few ropes indiscriminately, and act as a mask on the head, demonstrating the disinfection process and the epidemic prevention steps that must be carried out." In addition to my wages, I also prepared half a piece of satin for each of your mothers-in-law. After finishing the work, you have to disinfect yourself like this, don't ask for clothes, just change them and burn them, safety first. ”

A few stable women looked at each other a few times, and they didn't know what it was, but they didn't have to care too much about having money and satin to give them clothes. It's what sounds weird and scary.

As he was talking, Lu San knocked on the door and came in, stood far away, kowtowed to me, stood up, and smiled innocently. This is also strange that traffickers are not a respectable profession, and they know that they do not accumulate virtue, and their psychological imbalance and distortion lead to the perception of depravity as sublimation, and it is not easy to imagine that they can laugh so honestly.

Turning his head to greet him, he pointed at Lu San, "It's him, learn from him first." ”

"Huh?" Lu San arched his hand at me again blankly: "Learn?" ”

"Take it off!"

"Take off? What did Master Hou say? Lu San looked to the side at a loss, "Strip naked? ”

"Wordy sanitize you!"

"Yes, yes!" Lu San bowed embarrassedly to a few stable women, "A few mothers work hard, this old man is a bit embarrassed to do this, but since the benefactor has spoken, he will not refuse." ”

The old women laughed and gestured to the razor: "Beware of leaking wind for you?" The old woman has never seen anything, just strip naked, flush the water, remove the clothes, and leave the door. ”

"You have to shave your head and beard?" Lu San was a little embarrassed: "It doesn't matter if you talk about it, you will rush to Liaodong with your head." But I was going to go back to Beijing to see my father and mother go back like this, and I was afraid of being beaten to death. He pointed outward, "Master Hou, don't worry, you have picked a strong and disease-free pick, and if you don't see it right on the way, you will kill it on the spot to ensure that there is no problem." ”

"Lack of morality." The old woman heard the recitation of the Buddha straight, raised her knife and pointed: "With your words, you have to pass the boiling water, don't be wordy, it's you." ”

Don't talk about the old woman, I get goosebumps when I hear it, it seems that it is not easy to do anything, and traffickers also need to have the professional norms of traffickers. Just this is a slightly wrong means of slaughtering on the spot, and ordinary people don't have this awareness. But if you think about it, if you don't kill it, even you may be able to pass it on, which is also in line with the needs of the profession. He glanced at the housekeeper, and the old money was so hateful that he only gritted his teeth, if it wasn't for my orders, keep his distance, and he could go up and kick people.

"Four at a time, stripped naked," he said, pointing to the clean clothes that had been prepared on the side, "and when they were done, they were taken to the weaving workshop." "Doctor Zhou arched his hand," the doctor was tired, and he was afraid that he would be busy all day. ”

"Don't worry, the Hou Ye who should be in the next share." Doctor Zhou beckoned to the naked Lu Sanzhao, and pointed to the lime water that had just been blended: "Take out a basin of head plugs, soak it in it for ventilation, go out, pour it on your body three times in a row, and then jump into the barrel to soak a pillar of incense, and a few minions outside, and then call you in." ”

"It's cool!" Lu San complained to Dr. Zhou.

"It's cold, do you want to open it?"

I twisted my face and snickered as I pulled the gloating butler towards the weaving workshop.

"Hit the hand of the divine doctor Zhou, haha......" The housekeeper laughed crookedly, and the word divine doctor bit firmly. It's also interesting to go over and watch a few bald scoops for a while, so that these boys don't go the right way. ”

"The labor on the right side of our dragon was also recruited by this group?" The heavier the rain became, the white mist around the area was clear, and it was difficult to walk with one shallow foot and one foot deep.

"You be careful," the old housekeeper shouted, and a few nursing homes in the back supported me, "It's still this guy, the three brothers of the Lu family will do this, and the eldest will send him to Longyou, and he and the second brother will run to the capital." A family kills talents. ”

"I couldn't say it before, but now it's okay, rather than suffering in Goryeo, it's better to send it to the family so that I can have food and clothing." This is not so much for the butler as for comfort. When I saw it at first glance, I felt panicked, I was not very old, a numb face had long been indistinguishable, beauty and ugliness had no gender, just like a pile of wood, including those people who did the same children, were expressionless, not crying, not making trouble, and were driven away by the big bamboo pole behind them. It was right not to let Ying and the second daughter come out, and it was not a scenario that they should see. Think about what happened to Dalai back then, this poor girl used to think that she was unsociable, but now think about that thin face, and don't blame her anymore.
