Dress to be a celebrity

On the way out of Hanzhong, no matter in the field or in the city, the convoy encountered scenes of being chased and cheered off several times.Not only did the two grown-ups take it for granted, skillfully waved and shouted to the side of the road, the guards on both sides and the sergeant behind them also had bright faces, enjoying the common people's farewell with smiles on their faces.

It was as if they were not a group of missions going out to appease, but paraded through the streets after winning the number one prize!

Although there is a number one scholar and several Jinshi in this team, they have never seen such a situation on the day of their pilot test...

But they haven't even won the first prize, so there's no need to mention the three prizes.Song Sanyuan's name is well known in Beijing, not to mention these people are probably receiving his benefits, earning money from the Hanzhong Economic Park, and learning the method of planting Jiahe taught by him, so they will naturally have more affection for him.

The angels were shocked at the beginning, but later became numb and took it for granted. They even leaned out of the window and waved their hands, seizing the opportunity to rub the love of the local people.

After all, Song Sanyuan was only the magistrate of Hanzhong, and the people of the Outer Mansion would not enjoy his benefits, so I am afraid they would not be as sincere as the people of Hanzhong.

In their excited and regretful state of mind, the mission team left Hanzhong and went north to Yan'an through Fengxiang.Unexpectedly, the road didn't go as they expected, no one would pay attention to them when they left Hanzhong, instead, more people came to meet each other:

Not only were officials from all over the country greeted and sent off, but the people surrounded them.Even if they change into casual clothes and take off their armor when they are not greeted by officials, and try not to disturb the peace of the people, there are always local mountain people, celebrities, wealthy businessmen, women, monks and Taoists who wait in advance by setting up tables by the roadside. Send them to the border one by one.

The appeasement mission was entrusted with the emperor's order, so they were not allowed to visit the mountains and rivers, visit the ancient places, and even stop for a short time.Those talented scholars and celebrities didn't care, not only did they not put on airs of recluse, they delivered them to their door, and they also brought their own dry food to eat and drink with them.Their convoy didn't even have to deviate from the road. They walked straight on the official road repaired by Mr. Yang, and they had eaten all the specialties in Shaanxi:

Fengxiang's Xifeng wine and cured donkey meat; Qingyang's steamed lamb and soup mutton; Yan'an's enema and salted pork...

If it weren't for the hot springs not on the way northward, these students would even be able to soak in the hot springs with them.

Sun Yuanwai and the general staff followed the two founders of Hanzhong industry, the president of Hanzhong College, famous lecturers, famous civil science, folk inventors and protagonists of excellent literary works, and tasted the happiness of fame. They enjoyed scenery papers and wrote poems with these celebrities. , and also accepted interviews with several female celebrities——

Hearing that the interview was going to be edited into the local newspaper, Yuanwai Sun and the others got more excited and scolded Fang Qiu, they don't need those female mountain people to work hard to write the essay, they just need to cut the interview draft a little and it will be a splendid article.

It’s just that the mountains are long and the road is long. They have traveled thousands of miles to Hanzhong, and traveled thousands of miles from Hanzhong. Apart from experiencing the joy of being famous, they have gradually tasted the hard work of being famous:

So many talented scholars and celebrities follow, why are you not willing to pay them for poetry and singing?

But holding a one-day astronomy meeting is easy, but holding it every day is tiring.No matter how well the newly replaced car is earthquake-resistant, no matter how thoughtful the hospitality of wealthy businessmen and celebrities from all over the country, no matter how fresh the food is, it cannot overcome the exhaustion of long-distance travel.At the end, they could only lie in the car playing cards, eating tea, and looking enviously through the curtain at the two fourth-rank officials who were still sitting steadily on their horses and talking to the local celebrities who followed them.

How are they not tired?

How could Huan Qianxian still write poems?

Song Sanyuan was clearly born in Hebei, spent his youth in the south, and after arriving in Hanzhong, he was a magistrate who did not leave his residence.Why do you seem to recognize everything on the way to the north, where the scenic spots and stories of previous dynasties can be told clearly, and even the locals can nod frequently when they hear it?

Huan Qianxian is a hero who has patrolled the nine borders and personally defeated the captives. He should have energy; Song Sanyuan, a prefect who sits in the government office and faces endless official duties, did not get this body Strength, what about the many strange stories it seems?

Song Shi naturally didn't know that the adult playing cards in the carriage behind was envious of him. If he knew, he might be secretly proud.

I have only brought these few waves of tourists, so are you tired?

In the past, when he led a group, he was not only explaining, he also had to take customers around to watch movies, shop, eat, stay in hotels, and encounter any problems with transportation. .Now these celebrities who come to see them bring their own dry food and give them food and drinks, just like fans sending their idols on a flowery road.

Don't mention that it's only a month's journey, even after a year or so, you won't be tired!

Even if the body is a little tired, you still have to carry the burden of being an idol. When talking and laughing, your back is straight and the wind is calm.He can endure any backache and leg pain, and let the little brother massage him when he goes back at night.

The little brother's technique is quite good.Because he is a martial arts practitioner, those hands that look like cold jade are hotter than warm babies, pressing on the cold waist and eyes, they soften the muscles that have been stiff for a day.

As he went north, the weather became cooler, and he always felt a hard wind penetrate into his bones even when he was wearing thick clothes during the day. He asked him to rub some wine and rub it, and the warmth penetrated from the flesh and bones, and went straight to the heart.

===========================

When the new Daoist Master Song traveled thousands of miles to send the envoy Huan Ling out of the customs, another group of envoys had already arrived in Liangcheng.Although Hanzhong sounds like it is in Shaanxi, as if it is not far from the grassland, it is actually more than [-] miles from Hanzhong to Liangcheng, and only [-] to [-] miles from Beijing.

Shunyi Hou Shizi and his younger brothers set off more than a month later than Sun Yuanwai and others, but arrived in Liangcheng earlier, and met relatives, subordinates, and people who stayed in the border city...

And the community pictured in the Hanzhong Economic News.

In the newspapers, only simple lithograph lines can be seen, but in reality, what we see is a community that is so wide that it cannot be seen at a glance:

The gate of the community is painted with red and yellow paint, pretending to be the red oiled wooden door with copper nails in Beijing. The golden and red interlaced colors are bright and moving; the top of the wall is still plastered with a layer of lime, filled with broken ceramics and glass pieces When the sun shines, it shines brightly; the small row buildings with gray tops, white powder, and maroon wooden frames with glass windows show a bit of elegance and elegance of Jiangnan mansions. turn red.

Stepping into the community, the ground is covered with limestone hard roads.In the stone flower ponds beside the road, clumps of Artemisia annua pastures are familiar to these prairie men. There are also apricots, hawthorns, and mountain cherries planted in the flower ponds and under the small building.The trees are newly transplanted, and none of them have blossomed and bear fruit, but they stand tall and straight among the buildings, and there is also a kind of vitality and beauty.

Timur and his five half-brothers were so shocked by the scene before them that they could not speak.

No matter how small this community is, it is a community with hundreds of households. It occupies a corner of Liangcheng. Although it is not as wide as they used to open on the grassland, it is larger than the Siyi Pavilion in Beijing and the Shunyi Hou Mansion. Much more spacious.

And when they returned to Zheng, they also passed through Liangcheng. At that time, this place was still a wasteland, there were a few dilapidated houses, no one could be seen, and there were a few wild puddles hidden among the wild grass. When someone came over, they would startle a few waterfowls. hoarse screaming...

It’s only been a few months since we’ve seen each other, and it’s like a new city!

If you don't look at the height and thickness of the city wall, this "relocation garden" is comparable to some cities in the pass!

It's just that there are really few people in this garden, only a few old people walking in the garden with their very young children, not to mention men and women in their prime, even the older children don't know where they are.Seeing the dignitaries coming in, those old people brought their children and bowed to the ground. An attendant pulled up an old woman and asked, "Where are the people here? Why are there only you old people, and there are no cattle, sheep and horses in our grasslands?" The root of man?"

Timur waved his hand: "What's the use of asking these people, this must be the arrangement of Zheng... the court."

The relatives and nobles who stayed here rushed to explain: "This is the arrangement of His Royal Highness King Qi. The middle-aged men in our clan will raise cattle, sheep, and fast horses in the yard next to them, or in the workshops to the east. I work and don’t come back during the day. The imperial court also asked people to set up a school to teach our children to read.”

Those who work and their children have food at school, and they can bring back their own rations when they come back at night, and they can also go to the cattle and sheep shed to receive fresh milk, yogurt, milk skin, milk dregs, and ghee that should be produced by their own cattle and sheep. one type.

If you don’t want these foods, the cattle and sheep sheds will count them as money and grains—the grains here are all sent from within the pass, and the extremely finely ground rice, flour, and millet, as well as soybeans and mung beans, are all rare things on the grassland.Many people would rather ask for less milk, and replace it with rice noodles for more peace of mind.

People in their tribe can eat rice noodles every day?Even these old and weak can eat at will?How could the Dazheng court afford it!

Timur opened his eyes slightly in surprise, looking at the old and young kneeling beside the road, he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.But his younger brother said in frustration, "Don't raise cows and horses, don't eat food made of goat's milk, and work with others in exchange for food. Isn't this a Zheng person?"

Timur's heart trembled, and he suddenly raised his eyes to look at the small building, and at the gray smoke column farther into the sky.

Just like the smoke column they saw in Beijing, but the color is slightly lighter.As soon as he saw it, it reminded him of arriving in the capital at the beginning of winter and seeing the briquette stove in the house.I also remembered that the gray on the pavement of the garden and the corners of the small building was the cement that people in Beijing used to repair houses and repair roads.Look carefully at those old people who are not wearing leather robes of herdsmen, but the commoner and thread-woven clothes that Zheng people often wear——

Their brothers also wore underwear woven with such thread.

He touched the neckline, bowed his head and smiled wryly: it turns out that not only the tribesmen here, but even they themselves have become like Zheng people.

He sighed slightly, and asked the governor who led the way to take them to the horse farm and the cattle and sheep house for a look.

The cattle and sheep shed is quite big, with a row of transparent glass windows in the air. The windows are wide open, and the whole shed is bright and refreshing.But the cattle and sheep kept in it are kept in very small pens, and the stables are also divided into small rooms, which can only accommodate the horses. It is completely different from the way they are naturally raised on the grassland. Seeing them want to question those Zheng Dynasty officials, why did they treat their cattle and sheep like this!

Poor these cattle and sheep!

Pity these cattle and sheep...

Why is it so fat and shiny, not the skinny look when they brought it.If you look closely at the calves and lambs, they are also fat and tall, as if they have been raised for two more months, and they are worthy of being killed for meat.

How can they grow well even if they are kept in circles without making them move?Their ancestors raised cattle and sheep, so they should not live by water and grass, but tell them to run outside in the morning and evening and eat fresh grass?

There is no need for the guards who lead the way to wait for the officers and men to speak, and the herdsmen who raise cattle and sheep here kowtow and reply: "This is the method taught by the veterinarian. Only keep the head in the house, and let the animals go out for activities in the morning and evening. When eating The green grass, hay, and the strangely fragrant noodles they beat out with big iron equipment. It is said that the animals raised in this way can eat all year round. They don’t lose weight in spring, don’t lose weight in summer, and don’t lose fat in winter... "

As for collecting cow dung in the back instead of drying it into pancakes for fire, but using it to raise earth dragons, and then digging earth dragons to raise chickens, other people are doing it.He only listened to the story, but he didn't understand it very well. If the young masters want to know, he will call for someone to answer.

Timur slowly stretched out a hand and swung it back.

"There's no need to ask."

Not only people, but even these animals entered the land of Zheng, they are as accustomed and obedient as if they were born here, and they grow fat and strong, so what is there to ask?

This is not a good place within the borders of the Zheng Dynasty. It is just that the people of Zheng occupied the city and practiced the law of Zheng, and it became a good place to raise people and prosper cattle.Before he came, his father was worried that they would harm the clansmen. From this point of view, they would only lead the clansmen to live a good life.

He took a deep breath, turned around and asked Zhenfu: "I heard in Beijing that these workshops were all thought up by Song Sanyuan, and I have always wanted to meet him. I saw the garden built by his disciples in Liangcheng today, and I already feel that it is very important." It is a world-shocking work, I hope to have the opportunity to meet Song Sanyuan."

Is this...

This Song Sanyuan was originally the magistrate of Hanzhong. Although he has been promoted to the Shaanxi Branch Shoudao Counselor, he can only move within Shaanxi and cannot go to Liangcheng.

But Shizi doesn't have to feel disappointed.Although he couldn't come, but this time the imperial court sent his, ahem, Huanling, the imperial censor, to Liangcheng.This Huan Yushi is also a talent who is good at civil affairs. He built an economic park with Song Sanyuan, so he naturally knows how to make the grassland tribes live a good life.

When people come here, it is the same as when Song Sanyuan came to kiss him.If the son of the new Marquis worships Song Sanyuan selfishly, he should just respect and love Huan Yushi as himself.
