Chapter 19 The Grain Road
"The grain I just urged yesterday will arrive tonight?" Zhuge Liang looked at the unloading of the grain trucks one by one in disbelief, and he was shocked not only by the speed, but also by the modification of the three hundred grain trucks, and he kicked off the wheels with his feet, but found that it was not only strong, but also extremely full.
"What is this?" Zhuge Liang asked.
"Back to the Prime Minister, this is a tire, General Li called it that." Tian Dali arched his hand.
"Tires? This thing is wrapped outside the wheel, why is it called a fetus, it is not appropriate. Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan lightly.
"Please give the Prime Minister a name!"
"In ancient times, there was a black horse, the whole body was black, and it could travel thousands of miles a day, I looked at this thing, and it could really travel thousands of miles a day, so it was better to call it a black wheel." Zhuge Liang said.
"Write the prime minister's name!" Tian Dali arched his hand.
"Dali, is Jianning too peaceful these days? Is Miss Duanmu still in the city? Kong Ming shook his feather fan lightly.
"Back to the prime minister, Miss Duanmu was picked up by her parents yesterday, as for Jianning City, it is not a big deal, Taishou also engaged in a few reclamation activities, saying that it can promote everyone to cultivate the fields, and then he seems to have been assassinated once, but the assassin has been caught, but Lord Taishou seems to have a good relationship with that assassin." Tian Dali didn't know where to start at all, so he had to talk about it without a match, but when he talked about this assassin, it seemed that his eyes were a little wrong.
Kong Ming didn't want to care about these things, so he just asked casually, but he didn't know that so many things had happened, after all, the black wheel in his mouth was brought from Jianning, and it was also a novelty, so he knew that Li Xian's movement in Jianning was not small, and when he heard Tian Dali say this, he didn't want to ask again, so he could only nod and smile, and asked Zhang Yi to lead the troops back to Jianning in exchange for Li Xian.
And said that after Li Xian took away Duanmuxue's family in the city, he began to advocate agriculture, compared to the soldiers who worked the front line, although he said that there was no danger to his life, but the daily official commission was really heavy, not at all like today's Yunnan, it was really a wild place at that time, since these people did not accept the control of the Han people, there was no way, so they had to subtly, so they set up many schools, placed in Jianning City, specially selected places with many residents to set up, starting from the descendants.
Then, because of the disaster year before last in Jianning, there was no Lu Kai to borrow grain from the surrounding counties, and he had already starved to death, Li Xian carefully observed, Jianning is located in the southwest, according to the land should be extremely fertile, but the output can not be self-sufficient, the reason is that there are too few cultivators, if it is really outside the city of Jianning to open a military canton, it is not impossible, but those residents outside the city do not use these labor, it is really a pity. Li Xian could only arrange for each farmer's family to have a free enrollment quota, which did not have to pass the examination like other children, and vigorously publicized that these schools were directly subordinate schools, and the future election officials had to choose from them, which aroused a big wave of farming.
In addition to these government affairs, the most important thing is Li Xian's soldiers, these soldiers are still relatively visible in the case of Li Xian's emphasis and emphasis on the military discipline of freezing to death without demolishing houses, starving to death and not plundering, at least his team, not to mention anything else, is the best in the team that went out this time.
Originally, after being promoted to general, there were three thousand troops, but there were only six hundred war horses, since Zhuge Liang transferred his Mingguang armor away, it seems that the combat effectiveness of the entire army is not very high, in order to improve the morale of these soldiers, instead of the egg pain every day, they are about to break their heads, until he sees the rubber tires again, he thought of a good way, that is, a football game, such a cohesive and morale-boosting thing, how can it be less, if you can make a set of your own football team so early, Are you still worried about whether the national football team can enter the World Cup in the future?
So in Jianning City, under the urging of Li Xian, the first Jianning Cup was launched, not only the military team, and even civil organizations can participate, almost in one day, the streets and alleys of Jianning are full of this kind of sport, of course, since you want to set up a stage, it is impossible to be free, and it is even impossible to have no bonus, otherwise where is the motivation, so a football field-like place was built outside the city, allowing everyone to watch the game, and you can also get a wave of ticket money, that's it, Li Xian saw that Jianning's treasury was full at a speed visible to the naked eye, because it was not only the common people of Jianning who came to see it, but even Yongchang and Xinggu came to see it, and even more, they came from Zitong in a carriage just to see their favorite team.
On this day, Li Xian also had nothing to do, walked along the Jianning Bazaar, which was the loudest shout, and looked carefully, but there was indeed nothing worth buying, only one person, who seemed to have a language barrier, but the thing he was holding in his hand attracted Li Xian's attention, it was a rattan robe, a very simple rattan coat that no one asked.
"Why are you going to buy straw clothes?" A crisp female voice came from behind, it was so familiar, Li Xian didn't even look back, he knew that it was Han Xiao'e coming.
"It's not a straw coat, it's a rattan coat, I think it should be a good baby." Li Xian turned his eyes to look at Han Xiao'e and said.
"This kind of thing is worthless, no one wants it at all, which one do you think cares about him?" Han Xiao'e said.
"Then can you communicate with him, I may need a big order for him." Li Xian laughed at this time.
Han Xiao'e rolled her eyes: "Although I am a ranger, I don't understand his language, but in Jianning City, there should be a lot of translators, you can try it." ”
Li Xian nodded, and went to find a few guides who could speak to communicate with each other.
The man said, "I'm selling rattan armor here, I don't know how many generals want?" ”
Of course, Li Xian knew that his Mingguang armor was taken away, and his master took it, and he couldn't say anything, but the infantry were all armored, even if they were not forward troops, the armor could reach about seventy percent, and it was already considered the elite of the elite, even when Liu Bei was alive, the white-eared soldiers were only seventy percent armored, let alone his own cavalry, so Li Xian calculated carefully, and the soldiers who did not wear armor used this rattan armor, which was also a big improvement in combat effectiveness.
"I need 1,200, and I need 600 rattan armor and horse armor." Li Xian replied immediately.
The man shook his head and said, "The rattan armor process is extremely complicated, we only have three hundred goods here, and if we have a little more, we will have to explain the reason to the king." ”
Li Xian said with a smile: "It's just right, you tell your family king, we are willing to pay three times the price to buy it, and money is not a problem, as long as you can make a friend like your family king, I am willing to spend as much as I want, and it is best to talk to him face-to-face." ”
The man hesitated a little, but still nodded, and said: "My king usually doesn't see Han officials, but if you really want to make friends, my king must be very happy, I'll go back and report it." ”
Looking at the figure of the man gradually moving away, Li Xian laughed out loud: "The rattan armor soldier has been saved, saved!" ”。
Han Xiao'e behind him looked at him with a puzzled expression, completely unaware of what this thing was talking about.
How did she know that Li Xian's ultimate goal was to see the vulture bone in advance, when the vulture bone was bought by Meng Shu's treasure, and paid the price of 30,000 rattan armor soldiers, so internal friction, it was just a loss of national strength for no reason, why not keep people for the Han Dynasty, as long as he was more willing to go out than Meng Shu, he would definitely be able to save the name of these 30,000 sons, and he might be able to become an arm in the Northern Expedition in Japan.
