Although Li Xiao introduced high-yielding crops such as corn and sweet potatoes, there was still not enough grain to eat in the north.

Corn, like millet and millet, is classified as coarse grains, and no one eats it on weekdays.

People still like to eat rice, or flour and other fine grains.

Corn is a good thing and has a high yield. In this part of Liaodong, most of the corn is grown.

Only the fertile land on both sides of the Liao River can be planted with rice.

I have to say that the rice on the edge of the Liao River is fragrant.

In particular, the rice from those places in Wugouying and Dawa is steamed and fragrant, and it is shiny in a bowl.

Pour from one bowl to another, without touching the rim at all.

Li Xiao couldn't help but think of the rice he ate back then.

"Descend at Shanhaiguan, I'll see!" Li Xiao suddenly ordered.

"No!" Zhao Liangdong answered and went to the cockpit.

There is also an airship landing field in Shanhaiguan, but no one thought that the big man would suddenly fall from the sky.

After the prefect learned the news, like a donkey that had been hit by an arrow, he rushed to the airship landing field.

found that the airship landing field was already empty, and when I asked, I learned that the handsome went to the dock.

The prefect and his entourage hurriedly rushed to the dock again.

Li Xiao was strolling around the dock, and the sea breeze mixed with the smell of sea fish.

It's still a familiar taste, and it's also a familiar sea.

On the edge of the pier is a market selling seafood, and you can smell the fishy smell coming from a distance of dozens of meters.

Although he likes Bohai seafood, Li Xiao is still insensitive to these places.

A bunch of guys in military uniforms with stars on their shoulders.

The officers, lieutenants, and generals are all alive, and the guards have long been frightened.

There is a military academy in Shanhaiguan City, and there are many officers. But I really haven't seen a few of them in such a big battle.

There are three or four generals, and there are five or six school officers on weekdays, but now they are only equipped with bags.

What kind of character is this?

A few of the officers only dared to watch from a distance, and did not dare to come to the front at all.

Li Xiao waved his hand and motioned not to follow.

This battle must not frighten the people.

To observe the people's feelings is to listen to what the people have to say.

The attachés could only wait at the door, and Shunzi, Li Lin, and Zhao Liangdong followed behind Li Xiao.

These guys followed, and Li Xiao couldn't help it.

I can only enter the dock with them!

A guy in a robe was standing in front of a ten-ton truck, watching the workers load the goods.

"Wow, this car is stylish." Li Xiao patted the shiny body.

"That is, in this Shanhaiguan City, my lord is also the top spot.

My grandfather bought five of these big trucks at a time. ”

The man in the long shirt obviously admired his master, and he was full of pride when he spoke.

"Five! That's a lot of money. Li Xiao nodded, being able to buy five big trucks at a time is indeed a big family.

"That's ......!"

"Root?" Li Xiao casually took out a box of cigarettes, took out one and gave it to the man in the long shirt.

"Yo ......! Huazi. ”

When the man in the long shirt saw the smoke, his eyes lit up.

In these years, it is rare to be able to take out a box of silver dollars.

"Oh, the descendants of the family are filial." Li Xiao turned his head and pointed at Zhao Liangdong.

Li Xiao doesn't usually smoke, he usually smokes cigars.

A match was struck, and the two of them lit cigarettes.

The relationship was a little closer in an instant!

"Brother, your surname!"

"Surname Li, what do you call it?"

"Oh, you can just call me Zhang Laohao.

When you get to this pier, you know everything. ”

"So many grain ships, all from the south?"

"Where! It's all going to be transported to the south. Zhang Laohao pointed to a large cart of sacks on the truck.

"To the south?" Li Xiao was stunned.

It has always been the transfer of grain from the south to the north, but now it is the other way around, and the grain from the north goes to the south.

"It's all good corn, some from Liaodong and some of our from Hebei.

The grains are full and are definitely the best food. ”

"People from the south, why do you want so much corn from us? I've been to the south, and they're all rice, so could it be that they eat corn now? ”

"I said Brother Li, you don't know this.

The rice in the south is called Indica, and it tastes like wood slag, not delicious!

In the area of Shanhaiguan and Gyeonggi, all that is eaten now is Liaodong rice. When it comes out of steaming, it is fragrant, and it is much better than the rice in the south.

This corn is to be transported to the south to feed the pigs. ”

"Feed the pigs?"

"No, now our Ming Dynasty is also arrogant.

Pigs can eat food!

I remember when I was a child, I still ate pig food.

Now ......, hehe! ”

"When I was a child, I also had a hard time."

"It's time to catch up, let's get out of Li Dashuai, and then we will have a good life."

As he spoke, a sack suddenly spread out.

Round soybeans rolled out of it!

"I'm going to kill you, be careful. If you break another bag, you'll be deducted from all your wages for today. ”

Zhang Laohao is obviously not a very good talker.

He shouted loudly at the man who had broken up the sacks.

"Brother Zhang, why are you making so many soybeans?" Li Xiao also wondered how all the soybeans were removed from the ship.

"Soybeans are produced in Heilongjiang and transported to us to extract oil.

Look at you like you've been out there for years!

You don't know, we don't eat pork meat oil now, we eat soybean oil, which is the oil squeezed from soybeans.

We ate the oil, and the remaining soybean cake dregs were either fed to horses or donkeys.

And some people used it to feed the pigs! ”

"Heilongjiang, also come by boat?"

"No, we got on the boat from Vladivostok in our Ming Dynasty, drove along the sea, and drove all the way to our Shanhaiguan.

I heard that Heilongjiang is so wide, and you can also take cargo ships on the river.

Look at the ship, and the yellow-haired sailors. ”

Li Xiao looked up, and sure enough, there were several yellow-haired sailors.

The guys were shirtless, showing off their muscles.

In the sun, the white is a little dazzling.

"And the yellow hair?"

"This kind of yellow-haired person, at first glance, is Russian. It's the former Rakshasas!

He fought with our Daming at the earliest, but he was quickly subdued by our Li Dashuai.

Now, honestly like a pug, let you do whatever you want.

But these people have a lot of brains, and they are not lazy in their work.

It's just a good drink, do a day's work during the day, give a drink at night, and you let him kill people. ”

"Oh, that's it!"

"Brother Li, do you like the yellow-haired girls?" Zhang Laohao smiled like a man knowingly, and the whole person suddenly became obscene.

Gu Li: "What? ”

"We have a city in Shanhaiguan, and they are all little ladies from Europa.

There are yellow-haired people with blue eyes, and there are red-haired ones, and some time ago I actually saw green-eyed ones.

Although the eyeballs look scary, the figure is really not said, the front is convex and backward, the skin is called a white, and the kind of white that can see the blood vessels.

Buy one and go home, in bed that is called a wave.

Over there, Lao Haotou bought one.

Now drink wolfberries every day to nourish the kidneys!

If you have a mind, my brother-in-law is the steward of the human market, and I will keep it for you to get a chick. ”

Li Xiao finally understood that this Zhang Laohao was not only a driver, but also a trafficker.

However, Li Xiao of this city still knows that when foreigners come to Daming, they are basically treated as livestock.

"That's good, is there a man? Just like those few who are so strong, they have the strength to work at home. ”

Li Xiao smoked a cigarette while paraphrasing his old words.

"Man, yes! They are all prisoners of war that our marshal captured from Europa.

There are many people in any country, and there are many people, so you can choose. But ......"

"What?"

"Gotta give some money."

Sure enough, Zhang Laohao revealed his true colors as a trafficker.

"That's easy to say, but we have rules in Daming, and no one other than Daming is allowed to enter Liaodong.

We Ming natives, if we want to enter Liaodong, we must have Kanhe.

We, the people who sell, can also enter Liaodong? ”

"It's okay!

These yellow-haired people, come to our Ming Dynasty are livestock.

After the people in the market make a transaction, they pay the livestock tax.

The yamen of our Shanhaiguan will issue documents to you, all of which are with slave status. If you don't take it with you, you won't do anything wrong!

It's like if you ride a horse into Liaodong, who cares if your horse is compatible or not. ”

"Let's Shanhaiguan Yamen still open this can?" Li Xiao took the last puff of his cigarette and threw the cigarette butt on the ground.

"Give it to it, as long as you give some money to the officials, it's no problem. All Daming universal, if you don't want to trouble, you can also open a blank one.

When the time comes, you can fill in whatever you want. ”

"Can that be done?" Li Xiao's eyes widened.

"If you can do it, why can't you do it. They are all stamped with the official seal, and it is not human to lie. ”

"That's good, Brother Zhang, you take me, let's go to the market." It was getting late, and if the city gates were closed any later, it would be delayed. ”

"Don't be afraid, take a boat when the city gate is closed.

Go to Wugou Camp or go to Lushun Ducheng, there are boats here that can be on board at any time. ”

"Go to Jinzhou too?"

"That's too good, how far is Jinzhou. There are small steamers! ”

"Yellow-haired people can also bring it!"

"I said Brother Li, you can rest assured, it's all from the government. No problem! ”

"Brother Zhang, you have to worry about it, let's go to the human market." Li Xiao casually stuffed the rest of Huazi into Zhang Laohao's hands.

"That's too much! See the outside, see the outside! ”

"Keep it! Keep it! ”

Zhang Laohao pretended to excuse himself and put it in his pocket.

This is a box of silver dollars in Great China, and the master may not be able to afford it.

Seeing that the food behind it was also full, he beckoned to Li Xiao: "Get in the car." ”

Li Xiao sat directly in the co-pilot, and poor Li Lin, Zhao Liangdong and Shunzi also had to squeeze in.

But Zhang Laohao pointed back: "Behind! ”

Zhao Liangdong was about to slap this bastard, but when he saw Li Xiao's sharp eyes, he could only go to the back fight with Li Lin and Shunzi with hatred.

"Sit tight, let's go."

started the car, Zhang Laohao honked the horn twice, and drove directly out of the dock.

When I passed by the gate of the dock, I saw a bunch of officers waiting at the gate.

"What day is it today, why are so many officers here.

Fuck, there's the one who carries Venus.

The president of the Army University, who is good friends with the master, is the one who carries the gold star. ”

Zhang Laohao had obviously seen the world, and when he saw the general carrying the Venus on his back, his eyes immediately widened.

"Really, really carrying Venus." Li Xiao echoed.

The car did not stop and drove directly out of the gate.

The sharp-eyed officer saw Li Xiao sitting in the co-pilot. Immediately realized that something was wrong and hurriedly found someone to call a taxi.

It's a big sin to lose the big handsome.

Zhang Laohao didn't see the abnormality of these officers, and the truck sped all the way, and it took less than half an hour to come to Shanhai City.

Along the way, Zhang Laohao kept talking, this is the shrimp circle, which is the place where shrimp are raised.

The shrimp eaten now are all farmed shrimp, and they are not as delicious as those caught in the sea.

It is also said that the current fishermen have all set out nets, the sea is empty, and there are no good things.

Li Xiao is not interested in these, he is only interested in the affairs of the human market.

Liaodong is the most important place in the Ming Dynasty, and there is no such thing as one.

The entire military industry of the Ming Dynasty is basically in Liaodong.

There are also various research institutes, all of which are located in Liaodong.

Jinzhou, in particular, is simply the scientific research base of Daming.

This is also the reason why Li Xiao strictly ordered that no foreigner should be allowed to set foot in Liaodong.

Shanhaiguan is the land gateway of eastern Liaodong, and such a thing actually happened.

Although these people are all prisoners of war, they are all slaves.

But these people are long-legged, if one day they accidentally run away, or find out some news from other sources, or ......!

In short, these people are unstable.

And the gate of Shanhaiguan is already full of holes.

Li Xiao wanted to see how rotten the city defense of Shanhaiguan was.

The bag of Huazi worked, and Li Xiao promised two more silver coins.

Zhang Laohao didn't even unload the goods, and directly pulled Li Xiao to the human market located under the city wall of Shanhaiguan.

In fact, the so-called human market is to build a platform more than two meters high.

On the top of the platform stood a group of ragged people, and below were people who were coming to buy.

When Li Xiao got off the truck, he saw several blonde girls standing on the platform.

It's not good-looking, and there are two of them that still have freckles on their faces.

But all of them are superb, and their white skin is very dazzling in the sun.

"Big guy, take a good look, yellow-haired woman, there's a red-haired one here.

Look at this ass, look at this milk ......, it looks like it's easy to raise.

Get one back to play, it's also a taste.

Don't hide it from the old men, these are all chicks, and they are only sold for five silver dollars, and whoever buys them is suitable.

Five silver dollars, five silver dollars, first come, first served! ”

A man with five big and three rough men is shouting the stage.

From time to time, he also lifted the sacks that the girls were draped in, causing a burst of frolic below.

"I said Brother Li, that's my brother-in-law. Which one do you like, tell me.

For the sake of our friends, we will give you a bargain. ”

Zhang Laohao was on the side, staring at the bargain, and he didn't forget to sell these blonde and blue-eyed girls to Li Xiao.

"I said, "This yellow hair, red hair, and blue eyes. It's not the same as a ghost, buy a ghost woman to go home, and look at it at night and panic.

Hahaha! A fat man at the bottom teased while watching the excitement.
