"Assassin Zhao, Assassin Zhao?" Liu Yi almost couldn't help but wave his hand in front of her eyes.
Zhao Hanzhang came back to his senses, looked away from the distance, and turned around with a smile on his face, "Does King Beihai have any doubts?"
Liu Yi also glanced towards the east and asked, "What's over there? Governor Zhao was in a trance."
Zhao Hanzhang said: "There are pigs over there."
"Ah?" Liu Yi looked confused.
Zhao Hanzhang said: "I have a ranch in Yonghe County. In addition to raising cattle and sheep, I also raise pigs. Would you like to have a look at it, King Beihai?"
Liu Yi looked confused. He had been in Yonghe County for two days. First, he ate and played with the county officials and gentry, and then he and Zhao Hanzhang visited the refugees she had taken in. Today is already the third day. He
I want to go home.
Liu Yi doesn't really want to see her ranch. What's there to see in the ranch?
Herding is the specialty of the Huns, and he doesn't care about it at all.
When he was about to refuse, Zhao Hanzhang said: "Is the King of Beihai worried about the King of the Huns? Don't worry, I have written to your father, telling him that you are here with me and I will entertain you well. I also want you to be more
Understand the policies of us Han people in governing local areas."
"I heard that you, the Xiongnu, are very opposed to the rule of the Han Dynasty by the King of the Xiongnu. But to be honest, looking at the Han Dynasty before and after, only the rule of the Han Dynasty can make the unified regime last for hundreds of years. The five tribes of the Xiongnu are now openly obeying the orders of the King of the Xiongnu.
, but secretly, the five departments work on their own."
"Your father has great prestige, but he cannot truly unify them. When your brothers come to power, will you be able to control the five tribes?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "It can be seen that it is not possible to use the Huns' method to govern the five tribes. We still have to use Han rule.
.”
She said: "Use Han people's system and let Han people participate in governance."
Liu Yi's heart was pounding and he looked at her with wide eyes, "Why did Governor Zhao tell me this? You, even though you and I have made peace, we are still..." the enemy.
Liu Yi's face turned red and he felt that he was really a villain. Zhao Hanzhang seemed to regard him as a friend. He spoke so earnestly and thoughtfully, but he also regarded her as an enemy.
Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him and said: "My purpose is not to be your enemy, but to make the world unified and peaceful. There are not only Huaxia people in the world, but also Xiongnu, Jie, Qiang, Xianbei, and others in the south.
Baiyue, if the world is unified, these ethnic groups should be the same as the Chinese people, so I am exploring with you how to govern the people and the country."
Liu Yi looked at her blankly, "But, we are just subjects. Such things should be considered by the emperor..."
Zhao Hanzhang shook his head: "No, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all the families in the world attacked each other. People at that time were thinking about ways to save the country and strengthen the people. In the end, Qin was strong and unified the world. The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin system. Only then did we have more than three hundred years of history.
The world was unified, and the sages at that time all contributed a lot. Could it be that they also thought about these issues because they wanted to be emperors?"
Liu Yi was ashamed, "I am short-sighted."
His eyes were bright and he asked: "Does Governor Zhao want to imitate the sages and become a sage of this era?"
No, she wants to recruit sages and become emperor herself.
Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him, and then brought the topic back, "King of Beihai, there are Han people, Huns, and Jiehu people under my rule, but the latter two are very few, and most of them are soldiers. As an ordinary citizen, I
I don’t know what kind of governance is best for them, so I want to ask King Beihai to help me find out.”….
"As a prince of the Huns and a descendant of the Di people, you should have a good understanding of their living habits and demands."
When Liu Yi heard this, he was not in a hurry to go back. Anyway, Zhao Hanzhang also said that she had already written to his father, and it would be okay for him to stay for a few more days.
And he was also very interested in this topic. As she said, his father had always wanted to implement Han rule, but the five Xiongnu tribes had always opposed it. He also wanted to help his father share his worries. Maybe he could find a good way from her?
So Liu Yi followed Zhao Hanzhang to see the ranch.
The so-called pasture is, Zhao Hanzhang swiped it and pointed at a large area, "Look, this is my pasture."
Liu Yi didn't feel anything was wrong. He looked at the endless dry land and asked, "Where are the livestock?"
Zhao Hanzhang said with a smile: "Just
It will be delivered soon, let’s take a look at the layout of the ranch first.”
"Ah?" Liu Yi followed confused, "What do you mean it will be delivered soon?"
Zhao Hanzhang said: "King of Beihai, I have only conquered Yonghe County for twelve days. Whether it's sheep, cows, or pigs, I have to select them slowly and bring them slowly. So now the pasture is still empty, and there are no livestock for the time being."
.”
Liu Yi was helpless and asked: "Since there are no livestock, what should we come to see?"
"Look at my arrangements for the pasture." Zhao Hanzhang kicked the horse's belly, sped up, and took Liu Yi to a large puddle. She said to the house under construction: "Look, this is where I raise pigs.
, what is being built now is a pig pen, that part is a sheep shed, and that side is a cattle shed, which just forms a triangle, and this whole area is enclosed, and the range of activities is also large.”
Liu Yi frowned, "Why don't you build a mud house without a tent? Don't the cattle and sheep migrate?"
"No move," Zhao Hanzhang said, "Look at the land in that direction. Did King Beihai see anything?"
Liu Yi stared at it for a long time and said uncertainly: "Ping?"
Zhao Hanzhang was stunned for a moment and then burst out laughing, happily saying: "That's right, it's indeed flat."
The smile on her face gradually faded, and she said: "That area was fertile land two years ago, but after your Xiongnu tribe occupied Yonghe County, you enclosed this large area as pasture and no one was allowed to cultivate it anymore. The fertile land gradually became deserted.
For shepherds to graze.”
Liu Yi, who has one-half of the blood of the Di clan:...
His face turned red again, this time from embarrassment.
As a Di ethnic minority who is good at planting, he sometimes cannot understand the behavior of some Huns who enclosed good fields and turned them into pastures.
It’s obvious that growing grain has higher returns, so why do we have to turn fertile land into grassland?
Liu Yi coughed lightly and asked in a low voice: "So Governor Zhao wants to turn it back into fertile land?"
Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "It's only been two years, so it shouldn't be difficult. Therefore, the grazing area has been reduced, so it is difficult to move and graze. I want to plant some pasture in this area, as well as grain and vegetables for raising pigs and cattle, more refined."
Breeding."
Liu Yi: "Is this possible? People still don't have enough to eat."
"Don't you Huns raise horses and cattle for you to eat beans?"
Naturally, they eat not only beans, but also highland barley and wheat. They are more sophisticated than raising people. Raising horses is more expensive than raising people.
Liu Yi understood instantly and nodded: "You can give it a try."
"If nothing else, I'm just missing one thing."
Liu Yi: "What's missing?"
"Good forage," Zhao Hanzhang said, "I heard that the Di helped the Huns cultivate land and raise horses. There are two kinds of forage that cattle and sheep particularly like to eat. What is it called alfalfa?"
"Alfalfa?"
Zhao Hanzhang nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that's it. Do you have it?"
"Yes," Liu Yi said generously, "when I go back, I will send a few bags of seeds to Governor Zhao. In addition to alfalfa, we also grow peas. Cattle and sheep also like to eat them. After eating them, they become fat and strong, and have special hair.
Smooth and shiny.”
Zhao Hanzhang immediately looked at him eagerly.
Liu Yi suddenly lost himself and proudly puffed out his chest and said: "When I return to Pingyang City, I will have someone send some to Governor Zhao."
"Thank you, King Beihai."
Liu Yi smiled until only his teeth were left, "You're welcome."
