The woman spoke fluent Mandarin and answered:

"This is a great joy. We have suffered so much, and finally met His Majesty, who gave us a peaceful and contented life. We should be grateful!

Sir, it’s better to stay and enjoy yourself.

The world has been in turmoil for so long, and it is finally settling down. We are all happy! "

Song Xiance touched his cuffs and found that he had some money, so he agreed with a smile.

"It's a good relationship, and it happens to be dinner time, so I would like to give you a small gift to congratulate the virtuous couple!"

He was about to ask about the origin of the slogan when he heard the woman on the side explain:

"I'm afraid you don't know, sir, that my husband-in-law works on the railway, and this slogan is used by the officials on the construction site to cheer up the workers.

On the day when the foundation was laid, wasn't there a banquet? When my husband was happy, he said this slogan as a moderator.

The workers remembered it and it spread. "

The man took over the conversation:

“It’s not really a pep talk.

His Majesty has made a five-year plan, saying that the railway will be built to the three towns of Wuchang and Hankou, the provincial capital.

In the next five-year plan, we must consider the possibility of building a railway in Sichuan.

The officials wanted to exceed the target, so they turned His Majesty's five-year plan into a song for us to sing.

This is the imperial court's railway plan. "

Song Xiance was shocked.

What railways and trains are, he has seen in person.

That thing that spits out black smoke is a big killer!

If the emperor really built these two railways, who else could stop the Ming Dynasty's war capabilities?

Song Xiance asked without giving up:

"I dare to ask my boss, but that kind of big car spewing black smoke?"

The man laughed:

"Sir, please don't offend me. The commoner's surname is Zhang. When people call me "big pillar", if you don't mind, sir, just call me that!"

Song Xiance laughed and nodded in approval.

Zhang Dazhu explained:

"Sir, you should have come from the Wuguan road. There is indeed a railway there.

It's the kind of self-propelled car you see.

To be honest, after the road was completed, I had a short vacation, so I simply asked for leave and went home to build a house. "

At this moment, the middle beam had been positioned correctly by the civilian husband.

A foreman stood on the roof and shouted:

"Brother Zhuzi, the beams are broken, let's fire off the cannon!

Hurry up, don't miss the house god entering the house! "

Zhang Dazhu burst out laughing and said hurriedly:

"Okay, let the brothers settle down. Once the cannons are fired and the gods are received, let's start the feast!"

The foreman on the roof shouted again:

"Sixth Son, Sixth Son, quickly wipe the god's position and set it straight!"

A voice came from inside the house:

"The gods are set up, let's start whipping!"

Zhang Dazhu handed the bamboo sieve in his hand to his wife, took the firecrackers, took out the firecrackers and lit them.

"Crackling!"

The five-hundred-ring whip sounded.

Light blue smoke filled the air.

People covered their ears with their hands and smiled on their lips.

The five hundred firecrackers were set off quickly.

In the light blue smoke, the crowd gathered together.

People gathered around the couple and said auspicious words.

They are all villages formed by refugees, so there are no children anywhere.

The world has been in disaster for more than ten years, and children...

There’s not much left!

According to the rules, it’s time to sprinkle the sugar.

Marriage and building a house are great celebrations. Sprinkling candies and snacks to make people feel happy is a common practice in the countryside.

However, the female head of the house was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear and kept talking and laughing with others.

she forgot...

The man glared at her and said angrily:

"Sprinkle candy! What are you doing standing around?"

He reached out and grabbed a few candies from the bamboo sieve. Then, holding the bamboo sieve in one hand, he and his wife sprinkled the candies towards the crowd.

"Candy's sweet mouth is so beautiful! The sesame seeds are blooming steadily!"

The women said auspicious words, but their hands were dissatisfied and started looting.

The craftsmen on the roof have already placed the beams and are heading down.

Someone shouted:

"Brother Zhuzi, leave some candies for us to be sweet too!"

Zhang Dazhu smiled cheerfully:

“They are all there, they are all there!

It has been reserved for the brothers. When the food is served, let’s serve a plate of snacks first! "

Zhang Dazhu's wife also squatted on the ground to grab candy.

It's just that her posture doesn't match the other women.

It's as if they are two incompatible people...

Song Xiance's heart moved. This woman might have a story!

He shook his head.

This is someone else's housework. I'm just a stranger, so I won't get involved...

Zhang Dazhu walked out of the crowd, handed Song Xiance a few candies, peeled one off and put it in his mouth.

Song Xiance took the colorful candies and said in surprise:

"This is?"

Zhang Dazhu laughed:

"Your Majesty's new gadget, we don't know how to make it, but it's pretty sweet anyway.

I heard someone at the construction site say that it seemed to be made with sugar and fruit.

It's delicious. Please try it, sir!

I specially bought more than a dozen kinds, including orange-flavored ones, peanut-flavored ones, and milk-flavored ones..."

With candy in his mouth, his speech was a little unclear.

However, fortunately, Song Xiance himself is from Henan. He has been traveling all over the world to tell fortunes, so he is used to hearing the dialects of various places.

He heard Zhang Dazhu's words clearly.

"Thank you, brother Zhuzi."

Song Xiance peeled off a candy.

I saw a piece of hard candy as big as my thumb inside. I don’t know how it was made. In the middle of the crystal clear candy, there was a small piece of red.

It looks very exquisite.

Song Xiance threw it into his mouth, and his saliva became sweet in just a moment.

(Isn’t this much sweeter than the candy that the Japanese soldiers gave to Yan and his wife? Eh, no, I am insulting Zhang Dazhu by comparing it like this!)

Song Xiance had a smile on his lips.

It even has the unique sweetness of pomegranate seeds.

This should be pomegranate flavored, right?

Song Xiance guessed secretly.

good stuff!

Song Xiance silently wrote this down in his mind.

When he returns, he must buy some and take them back for everyone to try.

I was about to discard the icing in my hand when I glanced out of the corner of my eye and realized that there were words on it.

Song Xiance hurriedly spread the icing and looked carefully:

The sun, the moon, the rivers are all Han territory, and the five lakes and seas are the territory of Ming Dynasty.

Chinese people travel everywhere, and the Ming and Han dynasties are all their hometown.

In the middle are three large characters in running script:

Daming sugar.

Around these three characters, there is a circle of small characters forming a circle, forming a pattern like a pattern.

Song Xiance looked at it for a moment and found the correct spelling——

The sweetness of China is sweet in the heart.

……

This……

Song Xiance's expression changed drastically.

Emperor Ming is so clever!

This little piece of candy actually has a political slogan on it?

God!

As Dashun's military advisor, Song Xiance instantly understood how terrifying this thing was.
