In this winter season, people in the Central Plains began to store a large amount of grain for the winter. Thanks to the large-scale planting of wheat and the popularization of planting various wild vegetables, and the establishment of a complete grain storage system by Ji Qi (Houji),
This winter, grains and vegetables pulled from various fields are sold in large quantities in several large markets.
Those engaged in agriculture have food, and those engaged in handicrafts have goods. Someone pulls a cart with piles of cabbage (cabbage) piled on it. This is because cabbage withers late in the winter and is common throughout the year.
It is relatively cold-tolerant and likes the cold climate of the Central Plains. In today's global warming environment, it still appears to be relatively warm, but cabbage is not very picky about this aspect. After all, in this era, the northeastern part of the country is probably not going to have a big winter.
Not too cold.
Nowadays, the Central Plains region already has places to make vinegar and sugar. Needless to say, vinegar making and sugar making. After the Central Plains region obtained the sugar making method from the south, the south used cane sugar, and the north had a large amount of wheat grown.
Naturally, maltose is used. The yield of wheat is much higher than that of corn, so corn can also be used to make sugar. However, in the face of the large amount of wheat, it still silently returned to its old business as a staple food.
“This winter, sweet and sour cabbage is very delicious.”
As soon as Hongzhou's transportation brigade arrived in Taotang, many people immediately became aware of the news. However, Di Fangxun and Yuzai learned that Wen Ming was now sent to the Dongyi area to control floods, and Chonghua was not here. The person in charge was temporarily
It is Gao Tao and Qi.
Di Fangxun asked about Chonghua’s whereabouts and received a response.
“There was a problem with the Qiaoshan Tomb. Some of Emperor Hong’s men went to dig the Yellow Emperor’s tomb, and then they met a little chicken in the tomb.”
"Um?"
This kind of thing immediately cheered up Yuzai.
A new Gugu has appeared?
What kind of attribute is Gugu this time? It turns out that the legend I remembered is actually true!
Di Fangxun was very surprised, saying how could there be a chicken in the tomb, and the person who robbed the tomb was actually beaten by the chicken. This chicken can also use swordsmanship?
Of course, everyone is concerned about the matter at the Qiaoshan tomb, but only Laozi is overjoyed.
Lao Zi breathed a sigh of relief and said it was okay, okay, he was able to survive this wave.
The leader of the Central Plains reported to Emperor Fangxun: "This matter is true. The regent has already visited once and collapsed the tomb. He is now asking people to dig it again. It is said that the chicken has great abilities.
, is a new exotic beast.”
Di Fangxun: "This is a strange sight. A little chicken Wu Xian appeared inexplicably in Huangdi's tomb. Didn't you ask him to help predict good or bad luck?"
The leader of the Central Plains: "It's taken. Wu Xian said it's a bad omen."
"He said that in the past, there were legends that Ling Shuo turned into a red light and rose to the sky when he died, Zhuanxu became a fishwife and came back to life after death, Jingwei turned into a bird after death, and ancient figures sometimes became
weird stuff."
"But in the Yellow Emperor's tomb, the chick obviously looked like it was just born. The divination showed that it was not something created by the Yellow Emperor, but something that was born naturally. The divination talked about the chick, so it depends on the chick.
Does the chicken have the shape of a human? Obviously it doesn’t, so this is a bad omen.”
When Wu Xian heard what happened, he made a hexagram, and a straight crack appeared on the hexagram. This was a strange phenomenon, so he confirmed it was evil and told other leaders that there was a problem with the Central Plains policy.
This went against the Yellow Emperor's original intention, so a golden crow in the shape of a chicken appeared to warn him.
Di Fangxun immediately relaxed his expression: "It's okay. Everyone should eat and drink when we go back. Remember to buy more vinegar for me during the winter. Something good may happen recently. Also, let Mr. Qi come over and talk to you."
Let’s have a meeting.”
The leader of the Central Plains also agreed very calmly.
“Wu Xian said it was serious, so it would be fine. He said there was a problem with the policies of the Central Plains, and Huangdi sent a chicken to warn, which means there is no problem at all, and the republican system is indeed a good thing.”
Di Fangxun explained it to others who did not understand the principle.
And Yuzai was very shocked.
Does poisonous milk still require principles?
Isn’t this the scope of metaphysics?
Old father-in-law, are you so cool?
“You don’t need to know so clearly about Wu Xian. There is something wrong with him. Let me tell you the correct understanding and deduction.”
"The appearance of a golden crow in the shape of a chicken in the Yellow Emperor's tomb means that a new sun is about to appear and good times are yet to come; tomb robbers have dug up the Yellow Emperor's tomb, which means that the benevolence and righteousness of the Yellow Emperor's time will be unearthed again.
Farewell to the sky; the appearance of straight cracks on the hexagram proves that we are on the right path, because a straight line is the shortest between two points."
All the princes suddenly became enlightened and applauded one after another!
What a wonderful explanation! So that’s what it means!
Di Fangxun also said modestly: "It's not that I am great, but Lord Wu Xian is great. Everything in the world has a correct path. The meaning of Lord Wu Xian's existence is to tell you which path is incorrect first, so that you can eliminate it first.
One wrong answer can easily lead to the right conclusion."
All the princes nodded again and expressed that Lord Wu Xian's hexagrams were still effective.
Master Qi came soon. As the second brother of Emperor Yao, he was in charge of many things in the Central Plains. Emperor Fangxun told him that Hongzhou's transportation brigade had arrived and was now clearing an area near Zhizong's Yamen Gate.
There are a lot of goods at the site. You can ask someone to take inventory, and then we can discuss opening a factory in Zhongyuan for large-scale production.
“I went to Hongzhou this time, and I had a lot of feelings. Did you know, there are villains inside the horn?”
Di Fangxun asked him to give him some fun things. He wanted to put some policy cards in place, open schools, build handicraft production factories, and further improve agriculture and animal husbandry. Let's start with a fifty-year plan.
“By the way, I’m going to find Gao Tao. I got a code in Hongzhou and I’ll show it to him.”
Di Fangxun left, leaving only Master Qi and a group of people to hand over to Concubine Zai.
During the handover process, it was dazzling to see paper, steel, fine parts, porcelain samples, cement bricks, printed cloths, and a lot of various manuals about life and work, including parts of large equipment.
Then, it came to firearms. The elm cannon was just a wooden barrel, and he didn't see much of it. But the cast-iron cannon, he saw, must be quite powerful. Looking at the instruction manual, he felt a little frightened.
Yu Zai: "Master Qi, I tell you, you must like this thing! There is no such thing as Gonggong Dihong and his like, so he will never come back."
