Flash marriage president contract wife

"Our ancestors came to this place to escape the war." Li Dayong continued on.

Jing Shaohuai asked, "Why did you choose this place?"

Li Dayong shook his head and said, "How do I know this? Anyway, we have passed it down from generation to generation. At that time, there were only a few dozen people who came here to escape the disaster of war, namely Li, Zhang, Zhao, and Wang. , and later came two families surnamed Chen and Liu. Later, I accidentally discovered that the soil here is fertile, and there are mountains and rivers, suitable for living, so the big guys lived here. This has been living for hundreds of years. "

Jing Shaohuai asked: "Then why don't you go out of the mountains to the outside world?"

Li Dayong shook his head: "I can't get out."

"Why?" Jing Shaohuai asked puzzledly: "Although it is difficult to get out from here, if you want to go out, it's not impossible!"

"We are all cursed people, as long as we leave here, we will die." Li Dayong shook his head and said.

"Curse? What curse?" Jing Shaohuai was surprised, which was not mentioned in the information.

Li Dayong shook his head, and refused to say any more.

Jing Shaohuai immediately changed the subject and said, "After so many years, your surnames have intermarried with each other, so you have so many villages, right?"

"Yeah." Li Dayong replied sullenly.

Jing Shaohuai nodded, feeling a little confused.

This is the charm of population reproduction!

The fertility of working people is spectacular.

Almost every household has seven or eight children, some as many as ten, some as few as three or four.

After such a generation of reproduction, wouldn't it develop into such a large scale in 400 years?

"Here we are." Li Dayong pointed to a cemetery in front of him and said, "Uncle Zhu's grave is the third one from the left."

Jing Shaohuai followed his line of sight and saw a small grave, squatting pitifully among a group of large graves.

It can be seen that other tombs are regularly cleaned, maintained and incense burnt. Only Li Zhuzi's tomb is almost leveled under the wind and rain.

Since you are acting, you have to do a full set.

Jing Shaohuai obediently went over to offer incense, cultivate soil, and make Li Zhuzi's grave clean and refreshed.

Li Dayong nodded in satisfaction.

"Go back to the village, say hello to the village chief, and you can stay here. From now on, you will be from Lijia Village." Li Dayong said.

"Hey, okay, I have to ask Brother Dayong to help lead the way." Jing Shaohuai immediately pulled out another egg.

This time Li Dayong refused to accept it, and said: "You are newcomers, and you don't have much on you, so you should keep it for yourself."

Jing Shaohuai was not polite to him either: "Alright then, after we have cleaned up the house, Brother Dayong must come for a glass of water and wine."

"Okay." Li Dayong agreed without hesitation.

This is the rule in the village.

When every household has something to do, they invite the neighbors to drink.

This point, before Jing Shaohuai came, he had already done his homework.

When Jing Shaohuai came back, Mi Xiaoying and Yin Yinuo had already teamed up to tidy up the small dilapidated house.

The walls that can be repaired are built with stones, and the roof that can be repaired is replaced by a pile of straw with two eggs. The windows and doors that cannot be repaired are left open until there is a chance.

Mi Xiaoying's appearance made her get acquainted with the neighbors very quickly, and she even borrowed a scoop of coarse grains and two shriveled green radishes.

Yin Yinuo claimed to be the young master, so naturally he would not do these hard work.

She just needs to stand there and act sad...

As soon as the three people met, they immediately got together: "Come, come, let's exchange information."

Jing Shaohuai took the lead and said: "What I know is that the total population of this place is far more than the 2000 people mentioned in the report. I estimate that it should be no less than 5000."

"5000 people!" Mi Xiaoying and Yin Yinuo took a deep breath: "How could there be such a big gap? With so many people, how can they be transferred?"

Jing Shaohuai told the content of the conversation between himself and Li Dayong, Mi Xiaoying was silent for a while, and said quietly: "The task is difficult! And the cost of relocating 5000 million is really not low. If 5000 people are housed together , it’s a big community. If all kinds of supporting facilities are kept up, the cost will probably not be less than one billion.”

"One billion is a conservative estimate." Yin Yinuo said: "I just asked about the news, and I found a strange phenomenon. Since the people here have closed themselves here, how can the living standards of the people here be maintained?" If I remember correctly, even in the Ming Dynasty, even in remote areas, there were countries that supplied salt and iron, that is to say, private individuals did not have the technology to smelt and purify salt. How did they do it? ?”

Mi Xiaoying nodded, and said: "I chatted with some neighbors, and I also found a clue. There will be a family in the village who will marry a wife the day after tomorrow, and today they are sending a bride price to the woman's house. The ladies said in one go, The man’s house is very grand, and he gave a rattan kettle. Since there is a kettle, it means that they have the glass smelting process, how did they do it?”

The three of them looked at each other, feeling that something was wrong.

Yin Yinuo said: "Since there are so many unreasonable things here, let's go to the town and have a look! Their commercial center and political center are all in the town, don't you know if you go and have a look?"

"Okay, then let's explore the way first." Mi Xiaoying and Jing Shaohuai nodded together.

After a while, the three of them made an excuse to go shopping in the town, inquired about the way to the town, and walked all the way there.

Lijia Village is really not far from the town.

The tutorials of the three people are not slow, and the work will be done in a while.

After arriving at the town, the three of them saw that the town had a four-vertical and four-horizontal pattern.

The style of the whole town is indeed the regulation of the late Ming Dynasty.

In order to inquire about the news, the three found a teahouse and ordered three bowls of tea.

The consumption level here is very low, and the currency in circulation surprised the three of them.

It's not copper coins made in the Ming Dynasty, but banknotes that are exactly the same as the outside world!

"How is this possible?" Jing Shaohuai looked shocked: "Isn't this place isolated from the outside world? How can RMB be circulated?"

Mi Xiaoying said meaningfully; "It seems that the so-called isolation from the world is just a cover."

Yin Yinuo knocked on the table and said, "I have a guess."

"I also have a guess." Mi Xiaoying said, the two looked at each other tacitly, and then laughed together.

Jing Shaohuai squeezed his chin and said, "No wonder Brother Yuhan let us come, it seems that there are a lot of tricks in it."

Mi Xiaoying pointed at the pedestrians in the distance, and said: "Isolation from the world is true, but it is only limited to most people. And there are such a small number of people who are not isolated, but have frequent contact with the outside world. Otherwise, the tea here How did items such as salt, glass, ironware, etc. appear here? Let’s use an analogy, if the three of us were left in any ancient dynasty, would the three of us be able to build an empire?”

"That's because I've read too many time-travel novels. It's impossible." Jing Shaohuai immediately said, "First of all, the system does not allow us to own private soldiers and weapons. Secondly, we are good at business warfare, but not good at governing the country. Thirdly, what we have learned That bit of historical knowledge is only superficial and not enough for practice. In the end, we may even have a problem of survival, so how can we talk about building a nation?"

"Yes." Yin Yinuo nodded: "So this is where we can operate. Since there are people here who are in frequent contact with the outside world, then this group of people is the breakthrough point. Presumably, they really want to go outside to the colorful world. No matter how fertile the soil here is, no matter how much food it produces, the resources must be limited. But the resources outside are unlimited."

Mi Xiaoying said: "I even suspect that this person who is in contact with the outside world is not new, but has been around since the Qing Dynasty. Look at the characteristics of their clothing."

Mi Xiaoying pointed to a woman passing by and said, "The horse-faced skirt made in the Ming Dynasty is very fat, but you can see that her skirt is well designed at the waist, which obviously incorporates the design concept of the cheongsam. The people here are just Like a small world separated from the Ming Dynasty, it sometimes parallels and sometimes crosses with the outside world."

Yin Yinuo and Jing Shaohuai nodded in agreement.

At this time, there was a sound of wheels turning in the distance of the street.

The three looked up.

Hey!

Someone came over on a bicycle!

This is really...an eye-opener!

"Oh, isn't this the third young master of the Zhang family? He just came back from outside." Someone in the crowd shouted.

"The Zhang family is really getting richer and richer."

"Isn't it? I heard that the third young master of the Zhang family is going to inherit the post of mayor."

"The Zhang family is really getting more and more developed."

Mi Xiaoying immediately grabbed a passing aunt, handed over a handful of melon seeds with a smile on her face, and asked, "Where did the third young master of this family go? This car looks really rare!"

"I heard it's going to the outside world! This car is from outside, isn't it rare? Hey, little girl, which village are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?" The aunt looked at Mi Xiaoying's tenderness. Looking at her face, she thought to herself, such a handsome girl, probably only deserves to marry into a rich family in the town, right?

"I'm from Li Family Village." Mi Xiaoying replied, "I just came here to join my aunt. By the way, auntie, didn't we people here say that we can't leave here? How can the third young master of this family go out?"

"Are you new here? No wonder you don't know! Most of the people in our town are not allowed to go out, but those who are blessed by the gods can leave." The aunt spoke quickly and said: " After this family, Fuze, has been blessed by the gods for many years. Many of our food, clothes and clothes are bought from the outside! Our town is really thanks to the Zhang family, otherwise, this day How do you get on?"

The aunt babbled a lot of nonsense, but Mi Xiaoying quickly extracted a few key points.
