Chapter 48 Why
Jingzong was about to pick up his sleeves and draw his head, and he shook his head. It seemed that he was a master who often fought with others.
Several Hu people have also become popular. Since they are Hu people who do business, they are not easy to mess with.
Taking the Tang Dynasty goods to the Western Regions and even further away. And then bringing the distant goods to the Tang Dynasty, although the road is long and it takes a long time to go, the profit may increase several times or dozens of times just after going back and forth. But this money is not so easy to make. It was a little better in the Tang Dynasty. But after passing the Tang Dynasty, or seeing the place where the Tang Dynasty was scattered, in the vast desert Gobi, a group of robbers could break out at any time behind a sand dune or a stone mountain.
Or if you snatch the things, you will find an official to sue and report the case? Where can you report it? If you are strong, you will go there. Therefore, the group is very large and you must be fierce.
So it is not easy to mess with. A Hu man slapped the table and said, "I want to fight, okay, I'll accompany you."
The Chinese language is even more unstandard, but it is very big and has a very strong face.
Then let's fight. Xue Songwang was about to rush forward, but Wang Hua grabbed it. Wang Hua untied the bow on his back and said, "Since everyone says this bow is fake, I want to fight more now. OK, pull this bow full, I will accompany you. Otherwise, you want to fight and you don't have the qualifications yet.
As he said that, he put the bow on their table, and his heavy bow arms fell on the table and made a muffled sound.
Don't take it anymore. You can tell when you hear this sound. You are definitely a real guy. But this Hu man didn't believe in evil. He pulled the bow up, but he used his strength to bury it, and only pulled it away halfway. He put the bow down angrily and said, "I can't pull it away, you can pull it away."
Wang Hua glanced at the eyes and saw one of the Hu men carrying a bow and arrow, and a quiver pot, with more than a dozen arrows placed in it. He walked over and took out an arrow and placed it on the bowstring. With luck, the iron arm bow was suddenly pulled over and then shot the arrow.
With a sound of string, another "clang" sound was heard. The arrow had been shot out and was not on the wall. The powerful impact force knocked down a piece of lime, so you can see where the arrow went, shot into a blue brick, and half of it went in.
How much effort does this require? Just imagine, use a nail to nail the brick and nail it directly into the brick. It is most likely that because of insufficient strength, the nail not only did not nail it in, but instead bent it. How strong is the nail? So the top ten talents in Qingli later described Li Guang's strength. He wrote a poem saying that Pingming Xun Baiyu was no longer in the stone forest. He shot into the stone. It is estimated that Wang Hua does not have this ability yet, or Lu Lun praised it.
Silent.
Wang Hua asked again: "Where are you from?"
“We are Tuqishi tribesmen
"Okay, after you go back, you will tell your Khan, I really want to have the chance to visit you Tuqishi." Wang Hua was just talking. Tuqishi was one of the ten tribes of the Western Turks. After the Western Turks were defeated by the Tang Dynasty, they were divided into two khans. But these two khans were quickly abandoned by the ten surnames, and the Tuqishi tribe in the northwest of Suoye City began to become stronger. With Mochu's rise, he invaded the Tang Dynasty and the Ten surnames in the west, so the ten surnames were pressed by the two sides. A very small number were invaded by the Eastern Turks, and 60,000 to 70,000 people moved into the interior of the Tang Dynasty, and the others were merged into Tuqishi.
But Tuqishi felt that there was still a gap between him and the Tang Dynasty and the Eastern Turks. Although there were some small-scale wars with the Tang Dynasty, the amplitude was not large. Overall, no matter how harmonious the Guan was, even if Wang Hua wanted to go, Lao Wu would not let him take the initiative to provoke the war.
The Turkic people in this Dan had not yet reacted. But several Han people who accompanied him understood Wang Hua's identity. They whispered a few words in Hu in the ear of one of the Hu people. These Hu people were stunned. It turned out that they were provoking the demon star champion Hou.
The powerful Mochuo Dahan was defeated by him several times and obediently retreated from the Tang realm. It seemed even worse to be able to use his own cavalry. What else did he do when he went to the cavalry? Once he went there, he would definitely be a blood camp. Think about the empty Mo Nan.
The Turkic man suddenly ran to Wang Hua and said, "We are blind, sorry, champion. Our Dahan Wuzhile is the sun in the west, you are the sun in the east. Two suns cannot be touched together.
As he said, he grabbed his face, tore his ears, and beat his chest.
This is all messy, what, the sun in the east, the sun in the west.
Wang Hua said again: "Is my arm strength very strong?
"Of course, the champion is like General Xue back then, with the bravest army and invincible in the world. He is the best young man in the world admires it very much."
"Wrong, I don't know about other people, but I met a Taoist priest in Wen County, and his power must be above me." Wang Hua thought of the stinky Taoist priest. Although his strength had grown a lot in nearly three years, he probably was not the opponent of that Taoist priest. However, it is not clear whether the Taoist priest is real power, or Taoist priest, spells or qigong, or some dantian technique.
"No," Xue Song asked in surprise.
"I never lie. He just pulled me into my clothes, and I couldn't move."
The Turks were also stunned. Are there such fierce people?
"I just warn you that China is a great country with countless capable people. If you dare to be contemptuous, you will not end up well.
Go to the bar." Wang Hua said, hanging the bow on his back again.
Several Turkic people did not dare to sit down carefully without saying a word.
Wang Hua suddenly had an idea, and he thought of the characteristics of the Hu people. If it is cruel, no matter the southern barbarians or the Central Plains people, they are not as cruel as the Hu people. Just like a wolf, don’t expect them to respect their promises. But they have one advantage, advocating force. Why do the Turks kneel down when they see Xue Rengui and are afraid of being beaten? So this is the most problematic for themselves. I believe that there are not many Hu people who are not afraid of them now.
He thought of another group of Hu people, Zhaowu's nine surnames, Kang, Shi, He, An, Shi, Cao, Mi, Luo, He, that is, the Sogdians who migrated to the east. In order to resettle them, the Tang Dynasty started from Gaochang and Dunhuang to Liangxia, and a large resettlement site from Nanhetao to Daizhou was in Liuhu Prefecture. There were six Lu and Li in Nanhetao. If not, they would be in Qi. Of course, there were Turks in Liuhu Prefecture, and even the Dangxiang people who were forced to go north by Tubo.
When Wang Hua was training in the Blood Camp, he also passed through Liuhuzhou several times. What would happen if he pulled these Hu people to Jiangnan and then from Jiangnan to a ship to deal with the indigenous people in Nanyang? Wang Hua did not have any favoritism for these monkeys.
However, these Hu people were not adapted to the weather in the south, which was also a problem. Xue Song was still asking unwillingly: "I said that Brother Da Bei's relationship is one step closer. Is there such a Taoist priest?"
"It's true, is it necessary to lie?"
"So why didn't he serve in the army?"
"Everyone has their own ambitions." Speaking of this, Wang Hua sighed, as if his greatest hobby, he likes to make some handicrafts, but things are not as good as his wishes. He has reached this point today: "I would like to ask you, if Guan Yu and Sun Nao fight with equal military strength and conditions, which one is the upper hand?"
Xue Song replied without hesitation: "Of course it's Sun Nao."
Now that the Three Kingdoms has not yet been released, Guan Yu fought in his life and lost, and finally he lost one to Maicheng. Sun Nao only had two battles, but they were both two battles that have been famous throughout the ages. Although the two are not in the same year, they are divided into one by one.
"So what if two people fight alone?
There is no need to think about this anymore. Sun Nao even let Pang Juan cut off his legs and beat that one. Not to mention the powerful general Guan Erye, even an ordinary warrior is not an opponent. But Xue Song finally understood Wang Hua's meaning, and he said, "I understand, war not only requires courage, but also strategy."
Wang Hua was about to nod, suddenly a faint fragrance came from his nose. He turned around and saw the girl standing in front of him with a smile, giving a bow, and said in a man's voice: "I will meet the champion."
"No gift."
"I have a small request. Can the champion satisfy my wishes?
“What are the requirements?.
"Can the champions collect a few words to write to our store?"
Inscription? This is not a very high requirement. But Wang Hua became suspicious. Li Hong said that she would be a personal maid at her home. What else would she want to do in this store? Could she have other relatives? Wang Hua did not answer, but pointed to the Hu Chair in front of her and said, "Please sit down."
The girl sat down. To be honest, the girl was not as beautiful as the country, but her behavior was beautiful, which reminded Wang Hua of another girl from Taiyuan. Wang Hua asked, "Are you that Mu Meili?"
"Did Miss Li mention me before the champion Hou? No wonder Hou is here today to visit Han Dian today
"You are very familiar with my Li Hong?"
"It turns out that when I was young, I had a relationship for a while. Later, the two families fell into trouble one after another, and the news was separated. However, after I arrived in Xijing, I happened to meet Miss Li. I had only had several interactions one after another. But I didn't have the good luck of Miss Li.
”
After hearing her words, Wang Hua understood the whole story. Li Hong had not told the little girl in front of her that she would be a slave at home. But during the conversation, she must have revealed that she was envious of Li Hong's fate today. So Li Hong had this idea, but before she got her own words, Li Hong did not dare to tell her.
Wang Hua once again looked at her little girl and made him blush with his pink face, and then whispered: "I have admired Mr. Hou for a long time. Last year, Mr. Hou tried the world. I still watched Mr. Hou's style every day.
It was true and false, but Wang Hua didn't know it. There were so many people at that time, and everyone might have remembered it in his mind. He interrupted her and said, "I once had three maids, two of which were given to me by the emperor, and one I rescued in Wen County. But now one has made a marriage since childhood, and the other has given her marriage to a general under me because of her age."
The little girl listened quietly. It was not surprising that Wang Hua did. Yang Jian randomly made up the couple by Chen Shubao's sister Princess Lechang and gave Yang Su a concubine. Later, Princess Zhu Chang's husband Xu Deyan found Chang'an with half a mirror. After Su knew about it, he returned Lechang to Xu Deyan again, leaving behind a story of breaking the mirror and winning the relationship. Another story was also Yang Su's, because of his appreciation of Li Jing, he rewarded his beautiful family Hongfu Nu to Li Jing. As for the Hongfu Nu who ran at night, it was Wu Xuzi. If Yang Su did not have Yang Su's approval, even if Hongfu Nu dared to run, Li Jing might not dare to ask.
Besides, Wang Hua is not bad by nature, and his official position is still far from Yang Su's position, but his reputation among the people is no less than that among Yang Su.
"So, I lack a personal maid now. Li Hong occasionally talks about the little lady's character. I wonder if the little lady is willing to come to my house to help me. This is a tactful statement. Wang Hua cannot say directly, do you want to come to my house to be a maid? After all, he is a good person now. But he is now a good person, and it is not too much to invite her to be a personal maid.
The little girl's eyes were wide open, then her head was straight and said, "I'm willing, I'm willing."
The gold brick hit the head. Although the little girl was very kind, she was still very confused after hearing the news. After saying that, she stood up hurriedly and said, "Mr. Hou, please wait."
He ran into the back room, walked out with a small bag for a while, and stood in front of Wang Hua. He said, "I've packed up. When can I get to your house?"
Wang Hua looked at her and almost laughed, asking, "What should you do in your store?"
The little girl called out the two maids and said, "This shop will be handed over to you in the future."
It was done in one sentence. What a rare opportunity. If the opportunity doesn’t come again, it’s a little more scrupulous. Wang Hua swallowed, as if he was calling this girl into the mansion. Isn’t it a good thing?
After drinking, most of the wine was made by Xue Song. The three of them hired a carriage and went to the Xueying Camp first. This was Xue Song's request. Sitting in the carriage, Wang Hua asked, "Miss Mu, why do you call this, your name?"
The first two.
The little girl returned to normal and replied, "The father of the slave was originally a doctor."
So that's it, my wife didn't ask much about it.
When we arrived at the Blood Camp, some soldiers from Xijing were being transferred in. This time the sensation was even greater. The rewards outside the city were carried out in front of tens of thousands of people. Not only did the emperor pay personal tribute, but even the dead soldiers also had generous rewards. Even deaths were worth it. The news had not spread yet. A few days later, even in the remote areas, soldiers reported to enter the Blood Camp.
But if you want to enter, it may not be so easy to enter. First, choose to transfer, strength, speed and some individual martial arts foundation, such as fighting, archery, weightlifting, running, etc., and if it does not meet the requirements, it will be eliminated immediately. Wang Hua did not show up. Although Kong Heizi and others are about to be transferred away, there are more than 300 soldiers in the Blood Camp to assist Wang Hua.
Then there is a cruel practice, and it is eliminated step by step.
Wang Hua said to Xue Song: "You go and get familiar with it first."
I like fighting, there are many people who like fighting. Some of them play with you. Wang Hua left him and went home.
No one is surprised that Wang Hua brought back another beautiful maid, after all, Wang Hua is not Wang Xiaoer from Qingshangu. Even if he brought back a hundred beautiful maids, no one said he was too much.
But being Wang Hua's personal maid is not as much as outside as he imagined. He serves Wang Hua, performs singing, dancing and music for him, or even sleeps with him. That's wrong. Because Wang Hua is not at home for a long time now, he must assist Wang Hua in managing the affairs of the new porcelain kiln. In fact, Li Hong is nominally Wang Hua's maid, but Wang Hua's housekeeper inside. Now it is a porcelain kiln. The sea boat is successfully trial production later, and there are more affairs.
Wang Hua threw Mu Zi and Li to Li Hong, letting her understand and familiarize herself with what she would do in the future. She began to preside over the Blood Camp.
After the third day, Wang Hua came to Li Xian's farm. No one remembered that Wang Hua had a city and traveled around the mountains and rivers. The large area of cotton was transported in the farm, and there were still servants who were repairing the branches. This was also what Wang Hua had instructed, but the servants in the farm had not done anything to prune cotton. They asked the farmers nearby but they didn't know. So they learned some of the experiences of fruit farmers, but only God knew whether the branches were right or wrong. But this question was a problem. You can master it by just one or two years of exploration.
Wang Hua walked into the farm, but the manager told him: a message: "General Wang, you are wrong."
"Are you wrong?"
The manager took a piece of cloth and said, "The cotton cloth you mentioned has actually been available for a long time, but it is not called cotton cloth, but loose cloth."
Wang Hua was stunned when he heard this. There was no cotton in the Central Plains. It seemed that some farmers began to plant it in the Southern Song Dynasty, and it was not popular after the Yuan Dynasty. It was not until Zhu Yuanzhang issued an edict to force the planting, and this kind of crop appeared in various parts of China. Why did it exist in the Tang Dynasty?
The manager also said: "This kind of leak is produced in Lingnan and the Western Regions, but the quality of Gaochang is the best."
"Oh, how much does it cost?" Wang Hua always felt something was wrong when he heard it, so he asked.
The manager replied: "General Wang, let me explain to you the main fabrics and the approximate price. The first is silk, the price is about 60 cents per foot, and of course the premium silk is much more than this price. Its material is curtain silk. In addition to making cloth, the silk is also made of fans, paper, and quilts. The second is fine cotton silk, which is woven by residual silk, so the surface is not smooth and can be strong and durable. The third is fine blue cloth, which is equivalent to fine cotton silk. Then the second is cotton silk and the second is silk, which is about 20 cents to 30 cents. There is also the application cloth, that is, rough silk, usually around fifteen cents. There is also steamed cloth, which means no
Silk fabrics with patterns and only colored, such as steamed purple and steamed breeze, are slightly cheaper than coarse silk. There are also practices, uncolored cooked silk, more than eleven cents. There are also silk, which is equivalent to training, and refers to heavy silk. Then, the sichuan cloth, that is, the hemp cloth, is slightly more than sichuan. To the sichuan cloth, that is, the fine linen cloth, the price is not much different from the sichuan cloth. Then there is a rough blue cloth, which is about ten cents. Then there is Victoria cloth, that is, the linen cloth in Yizhou, about eight cents. There is also a small water cloth, which is also a kind of sichuan cloth, with the price of about six cents. There is also brocade, which is patterned silk fabric. The price of this cloth fluctuates the most, and the good can be worth a few gold, and the difference is only similar to slowness."
Wang Hua knew a lot about this knowledge. He mainly listened to the price. One thing he heard was that although cotton cloth could not keep up with good brocade silk, it was comparable to cotton silk and at least surpassed slow silk. This was unimaginable in later generations. Think about it. No matter how expensive cotton cloth is, it may be more expensive than silk.
Wang Hua said to himself: "So what's the problem? If you say, the average cloth per foot is about twenty texts."
The manager nodded. This was calculated by the order of succession. Especially with the idea provided by Wang Hua, the twisted cloth lock cannot be called a fine line, at least it can be compared to the last time. This is what he has repeatedly compared in the market.
Wang Hua said again: "But why hasn't it been popularized? You should know that a minimum of 100 kilograms of pure cotton can be produced by a mu of land. How much cloth can it weave?"
He was looking for the reason, but the manager was shocked when he heard this. How many cloth would he weave more than 100 kilograms of pure cotton? Five hundred feet? One thousand feet? Two thousand feet? It was not as fast as he could grab money.
Defense: In ancient times, the width of one foot of cloth was different, about four feet, and the cloth also had thicknesses. One foot of 30 cm and two thousand feet was exaggerated, but it should not be a problem to weave 500-foot cloth from a mu of lint. If this is not easy to compare, the rice price in the Tang Dynasty now had a good harvest of a few cents, and two or three hundred cents were also available during disasters, but generally one dou of rice was more than ten cents, and one dou of rice was about twelve or three kilograms.
