Chapter 1091 The Prelude to the Invisible War
“Suggestion?” Humphrey’s eyes widened, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Fei Qian nodded calmly.
“…” Yuvrou was silent, and after a while he nodded silently. Yuvluo deliberately refused to agree, but found that he could not find any reason to refuse, because the whole matter was actually controlled by Fei Qian.
As far as culture is concerned, China is now in an absolutely superior position, and it will not be shaken even within hundreds of thousands of years. Therefore, if Yuvluo wants to continue to give people the opportunity to learn from Fei Qian, he must follow Fei Qian''s so-called "suggestions". There is no other way.
For Yuvluo, who has been exposed to Han culture, the current progress of the children in the family is really gratifying.
How old was Humphrey when he could count?
Twelve or thirteen?
Humphrey can no longer remember it, but he still remembers his father’s happy smile when he knew how to count...
And now, in a month or two, the children in my family, in addition to recognizing a lot of words, some have reached the level of Humphrey when he was twelve or thirteen years old at that time, which for most Huns was only The situation of being able to count knots and knots is no less than an earth-shaking change.
It is really a bit unwilling to ask Humphrey to give up at this point.
?Of course, if Fei Qian’s “suggestions” are too harsh and Humphrey finds it unacceptable, the negotiations will eventually break down and everything will return to the starting point...
"Chanyu, don''t worry..." Fei Qian said with a smile, "...there are many opinions on the current education matter, but it''s just because these people only see us giving and not getting anything in return, so naturally they are a little dissatisfied. This It''s a normal thing... It''s like if the Shanyu is asked to take people to cut pasture, and then the cut grass is not given to the Shanyu, the Shanyu''s people''s efforts are in vain, and in the end they get nothing... Such a thing, the Shanyu Are you willing..."
"I...don''t want to..." Humphrey said, "...but...it can''t be said that I haven''t gained anything. We also have some friends... How about I go back and let them pay more?"
"Shu Xiu..." Fei Qian laughed twice, looked at the table and said, "...Actually, Shanyu should also know that we are not in short supply of these meat strips..."
Yuvluo sighed. He understood what Fei Qian meant, and even thought of the so-called "easy meal" just now. Nowadays, Pingyang is indeed promoting both farming and animal husbandry, and the amount of meat may even be as similar as that of Jizhou and Yuzhou. Wealthier counties have more, so why would they be so in need of one or two pieces of dried meat?
“…It’s midsummer now, and it’s going to be autumn in the blink of an eye…” Fei Qian raised his head and looked outside the hall, as if he suddenly mentioned an irrelevant topic.
?Humphreau: “…”
"...Indeed, my suggestion is very simple, and it won''t cause much trouble to Chan Yufei..." Fei Qian said slowly, "...The autumn harvest will be here in two or three months. If we don''t let those families who come to study... Bring out some cows and horses to help transport the autumn harvest... Of course, the cows and horses are still yours, and you can take them back after the autumn harvest... As for the livestock food needed by the cows and horses for transportation, how about half of it each? "
"How can this be done?" Hufrault raised his eyebrows, "How can we let our cattle and horses work and still provide livestock food? Of course you are the one to provide it..."
"Well, it''s settled." Fei Qian laughed and agreed, "In two days I will have someone report the number of cattle and horses needed to Shanyu..."
"Ah?" Yuvro was stunned for a moment, smacked his lips, and said helplessly, "...Okay, but let''s talk about it first. Those children''s parents don''t own many cattle and horses. If the number exceeds, I don''t have it either. There’s a way…”
Fei Qian nodded and said: "That''s natural... Shanyu can rest assured. Aren''t these children basically able to count? These children had a homework two days ago... Well, let them apply what they have learned and count the cows and horses when they go home. I went, I must have reported the number of cattle and horses at home in the past few days...so it will definitely not be exceeded, Shanyu can rest assured..."
?Humphreau: “…”
"Haha... Why does the Chanyu mind... These oxen and horses are all powerful, and they are just pulling a cart to transport crops... I will also order that farmers need to prepare fodder and dried beans. I will definitely not let the Shanyu''s oxen and horses lose fat. ..." Fei Qian said slowly, "Furthermore, it can be said to be the achievement of enlightenment. You and I are from the same family...those who like to discuss will naturally disappear. Isn''t it not good..."
Humphrey was silent for a while, always shaking his head and sighing: "General, this meal is really not delicious... Anyway, let''s leave it like this..."
Huvrault behaved pitifully, but in fact, this was not a big loss to Huvrault. Humphrey also knew that it was appropriate to do some work for others after learning from others. Didn''t Han Chinese apprentices also have to work in the master''s house for many years?
What''s more, the ones who sent out the cows and horses were the families of school-going children, not Yu Fuluo himself, so in the end Yu Fuluo agreed to follow Fei Qian''s suggestion and send the cows and horses of relevant personnel to help Fei Qian this fall. People carry out the autumn harvest…
?Huvro may or may not be willing, but he left with some helplessness.
??Zao Zhi stepped on Yuvrou''s heels.
Fei Qian led Zao Zhi to the small pavilion in the courtyard and sat down.
Zao Zhi took out a small bamboo slip from his sleeve, handed it to Fei Qian, and said: "Now the Baishi Qiang people have arrived, and the fence in the Baibo Valley has been basically completed... This is a specific list..."
While watching, Fei Qian said: "Thank you for your hard work, Zijing. Although pigs are also one of the five domestic animals, compared with cattle and sheep, the raising methods are also different... So this time, you don''t have to worry about making mistakes, you just need to As long as you don’t keep making mistakes in the same place...trough feeding, pen feeding, etc., you might as well set up a few slightly different ones, and then record the situation to see which one is the most suitable..."
This fence-raising of domestic pigs can be said to be the first of its kind in the Han Dynasty. In the past, the Chinese people''s attitude towards livestock was basically the same. They were kept in a semi-free range state. Although there were sheds, they still drove the livestock out most of the time and let them go to the wild to find food.
?Although this model is more trouble-free, these livestock are not easy to fatten and their growth rate is not very fast. Especially in the Han Dynasty, there was no breed selection and many livestock were in a natural evolution model.
?Just like domestic pigs, most of them in the Han Dynasty are black-haired pigs that were called various fragrant pigs in later generations. This kind of pig is actually not fragrant at all.
Fence-raising, how much to feed pigs a day, the ratio of food, etc. are all being explored. However, Fei Qian knows that for domestic pigs, pen-raising with less movement and more food is the best mode. Take advantage of the pig''s fatness. After all, the so-called genetic engineering matters are still too advanced and far away, so we can only do what we can currently do.
??Zao Zhi cupped his hands and replied: "I will obey your order."
"My people, you don''t have to be so polite..." Fei Qian put down the bamboo slips and said, "By the way, I just helped you solve the problem of insufficient transportation capacity for the autumn harvest that you talked about last time..." Upon hearing this, Zaozhi immediately He said happily: "Seriously? That''s great..."
?At present, for Fei Qian''s territory, the fields near Pingyang are relatively simple. One is close, and the other is convenient transportation, so the autumn harvest in the past two or three years has not been too strenuous.
But it’s different now.
In the Yinshan area to the north, although it has experienced wars and farming is not large-scale, there is more or less some; there is also some farmland in the Zhenlin and Qiuci areas; in addition, there are some established immigrant settlements along the way; these are all in the east Zao Zhi was troubled by the autumn harvest and autumn poems in Xiyiyi District.
This matter, even in later generations with developed transportation networks and convenient transportation, is still a very important seasonal task for the country. It is even written into the annual work report at the grassroots level and has become an important indicator for the township leadership team. , let alone in the Han Dynasty, an era when there was an extreme lack of transportation and poor means of transportation?
Of course, if this matter is really discussed, it is not so difficult to make people mad, because for three to four hundred years, the Han Dynasty has entrusted such matters to a non-governmental organization, and it has done a good job to some extent. , that is the noble nobles.
The most fundamental reason why noble families and rural heroes gradually gained higher and higher political status in the Han Dynasty is that they not only represented the thoughts of the Han Dynasty, but also replaced the Han man''s mouth, took charge of the Han man''s stomach, and even controlled the Han Dynasty. How can the weight of such a big man not keep rising if he has taken out the big man''s wallet?
?In the three to four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, no one was aware of this situation, or tried to change it?
Of course there is, and he also made earth-shattering moves.
He is Wang Mang.
However, the noble families soon let Wang Mang know what a real man was.
?Reality is not a game after all, and there is no archive to retrieve.
??When Wang Mang mobilized the army to exterminate the so-called heroes of the green forest who rebelled, his soldiers had already begun to fall apart. Even the generals who commanded the troops were half-hearted. How could such a situation not be corrupted on the spot?
? ? Some people say that those who shout loudest on the Internet are often the most cowardly in reality. In fact, the opposite is also true. As the saying goes, dogs that bite don''t bark, and nobles who can eat people do it quietly...
Just like now.
It has been some time since the order to seek talents was issued, but still not many people came to the north. The so-called most outstanding nobles in the Han Dynasty, who were full of prophets and foresight, and who sold their property and took care of their families one after another and moved forward, did not appear. Anyway, Fei Qian didn''t see it.
The reason is simple.
?These noble nobles felt that if Fei Qian wanted to develop here, he would definitely need manpower, so they were not in a hurry to come here, but waited for Fei Qian to come to ask for help.
Just like Liu Bei visiting the thatched cottage over and over again.
?? Could it be that Liu Bei was willing to be so lowly and humble that he really only wanted the body of Zhuge Liang, who was unknown at the time?
hehe.
hehe…
Those who understand will naturally understand, and those who do not understand, just let them be.
?So if Fei Qian wants to develop, he must start from the most basic grain and grass. If he can''t even collect the grain and grass autumn tax, then what''s the point of talking about grand plans?
As for collecting grain and grass, it is necessary to have a large number of grassroots counting personnel and sufficient transportation capacity, and these things have always been controlled by the nobles.
Otherwise?
Even if the farmer knows how to calculate how much grain and grass should be turned in based on experience, do the collectors know how to calculate the write-off? Even if one village after another spontaneously receives the inspiration of Fei Qian''s holy light and gathers the surrounding food and grass, will there be self-propelled vehicles that can deliver it to Pingyang?
So the surrounding nobles and nobles were waiting and watching quietly, and some had even prepared people and equipment, just waiting for the conditions to be negotiated before they could be put to use.
?However, Fei Qian wanted to find another way. Only in this way could he get rid of the influence and control of the nobles more completely.
Fortunately, except for Pingyang this year, the amount of grain and grass in the surrounding areas is not too much, especially the Yinshan area has not yet formed a large scale, so there is still time.
Without the grassroots, how can we talk about overthrowing and rebuilding?
"...The Baishi Qiang and the Southern Xiongnu will provide cattle and horses as transportation capacity..." Fei Qian placed the bamboo slips on the table in the small pavilion, and then turned his eyes to the sky in the distance, "...the workshop has been busy making cars recently. We now have seven education centers, each with more than 20 children and as few as more than ten children. Now most of them understand some basic writing and counting, and by the time of the autumn harvest, they will all Deployed nearby...Inspections in Pingyang City and surrounding counties were also organized to coordinate to maintain order..."
"...from south to north, first concentrate the surrounding forces, and then from one place to another, collect the autumn blessings uniformly from place to place..." Fei Qian continued, "...as long as this year''s autumn harvest goes well, next year we will have more People will be more relaxed if they have more cattle and horses..." This way can prevent the gentry and right-wingers from infiltrating Bingbei. Only in this way can this land from Yinshan to Diaoyin, from Dingyang to Huguan, truly be regarded as an area directly controlled by Fei Qian, just like the area near Pingyang City.
?Zao Zhi was silent for a long time before he said: "...junhou, are we really going to start..."
Fei Qian smiled slightly, looked at Zao Zhi, and said, "Yes, it must be like this. Just like what we said under Lushan Mountain...this world will eventually have some changes, and it starts with us. Isn’t it good? Besides, aren’t you, me, and Yuan Zhi all here for this?”
??Zao Zhi nodded, sighed softly, and said: "The Lord is right...but this road may not be easy..."
"Well..." Fei Qian nodded and said slowly, "...it''s easy to walk or not, you always have to walk and give it a try..."
?This autumn harvest is the prelude to an invisible war...
