Time flies, and the entire Central Plains is shrouded in silver frost.
When the first ray of sunshine in spring shines down, the ice and snow melt and everything revives.
The weather is sunny and windy, accompanied by warm currents. Based on experience, the old tenant farmers have found that this year is expected to be another bumper harvest.
On the Lake Baikal side, Yang Gan is really struggling. He can't go back or leave.
In my previous life, as a standard southerner, I could never imagine what it would be like to be in freezing weather.
I thought Yuntong County was located in the north, so it would be cold enough.
Unexpectedly, the temperature measurement showed that the coldest time of Lake Baikal had reached minus 40 or 50 degrees Celsius. Fortunately, such extreme weather only lasted a few days.
Usually it stays at minus 20 or 30 degrees Celsius. When spring comes, the temperature begins to gradually warm up.
It has to be said that the Ding Ling people do have super cold resistance. In such an extreme environment and with insufficient thermal insulation products, they only froze to death some elderly people and people with hidden diseases.
Not even a few babies died, but they were carried over like this.
Yang Gan looked at Zhang Yumeng lying on the blue ice in a funny way and said.
"Okay, don't be reluctant to leave. When the weather was the coldest some time ago, didn't you lose your temper and say you wanted to go back and play in the county town?"
Zhang Yumeng closed his eyes, dressed like a ball, and praised.
"The ice of Lake Baikal is blue and so beautiful. I still feel a bit reluctant to leave when I think of it."
Yang Gan said, "Well, if nothing happens in the future, we will come every year, but I have a good proposal."
Zhang Yumeng asked curiously, "What? Can you find a more beautiful place than here?"
Yang Gan pursed his lips and smiled, showing a longing expression, "I remember telling you that the geography of this world is very similar to the previous world. You said that if one day, I conquer Hawaii, how about we go on a beach vacation?"
Zhang Yumeng looked at Yang Qian in disbelief, and even the hot breath on his mouth became more frequent.
"Fuck, fuck, you're planning to conquer the world."
The corners of Yang Gan's mouth raised, his face full of pride, "Who told you to have a world map in your computer? Wouldn't it be a pity if I don't go there?"
"It's just that the price of going is quite high. I'm still considering it."
"Crush~~~!"
Zhang Yumeng jumped up directly, with strong desire shining in his eyes.
"Say, what's the price? Let's figure it out together. I want to go, I want to wear a swimsuit, I want to drink Lafite, and I want to wear sunscreen on the beach."
Yang Gan raised the corner of his mouth, looked at the vast ice fields and forests in the distance, and said melancholy.
"It's easy to fight out. What if your home is stolen? There are wolves around. Shang and Liao are not easy to get along with. These two countries are like two powder keg. You never know when they will explode."
Zhang Yumeng tasted it carefully and said in shock, "You, you really plan to unify the Central Plains."
Zhang Yumeng pondered Yang Gan's words carefully and murmured to himself.
"Do you really want to sit in the position of the Nine-Fifth Master?"
"I heard that after you sit down, you will not recognize your relatives. You won't kill me when you become the emperor."
Yang Qian looked at Zhang Yumeng speechlessly, "You have such a rich imagination, how is that possible? And to be honest, that seat is not easy to sit in."
Yang Qian is also in trouble now. It's just like driving. If you don't hit others, sometimes if you are unlucky, others will hit you.
I have no ambitions, but once you get on track, you can't stop if you want.
Countless people will regard you as their imaginary enemy, and they also have subordinates. If you don’t take a step forward, how can they rise up?
Countless pressures gathered together, making Yang Qian, a man who overlooked the war situation in the Central Plains from a God's perspective, feel even more like Alexander.
Zhang Yumeng was so torn in her heart, "Oh, I really want to go to Hawaii. When I went there before, I always stayed in the best hotels."
"Go there at least once a year, ugh
, I don’t know if I will have a chance in this life. "
The corners of Yang Qian's mouth twitched fiercely, "Can I understand that you are showing off?"
Zhang Yumeng was surprised and said, "No way, no way. Is there anyone who hasn't been to Hawaii these days?"
"It's not expensive to go there. The air ticket only costs a few thousand, but I'm flying first class?"
"You'll die if you don't show off. A trip to a place this far away costs a few thousand dollars. You have to stay in a hotel, eat, and spend money. You can't afford it without tens of thousands of dollars."
"If you use it a little more harshly, it will be fine if you spend more than ten or two hundred thousand. I still have a mortgage, so how can I get there? I can swim there."
Zhang Yumeng said curiously, "Didn't you win the lottery?"
"Well, if you get hit, you will travel through time." When Yang Gan talked about this, he felt that his cheeks were sore.
To be honest, I don't envy the power I have here at all.
If he had his own house in the city and a monthly salary of tens of thousands or tens of thousands, Yang Gan could live a very comfortable life.
He even said that as long as you mind your own business, other things are none of your business.
But here, you can only explode technology, lead troops in battle, and cultivate food, otherwise any natural or man-made disaster can take you away directly.
Crisis loomed over his head all the time. Suddenly, Yang Gan was a little envious of Zhang Yumeng.
Under his own protection, her life was not what she wanted.
As long as you do your own thing, there is no need to worry about safety.
At this time, a hand with furry gloves grasped Yang Qian's small palm.
"You are such an unlucky boy. Anyway, I support you. Shang Guo and Liao Guo are very annoying. You can kill them both when you have time and save us from causing trouble all day long."
"Even when traveling, I am worried about whether I can survive this day."
At this time, Nina's figure hurried over on the ice.
"Fish, fish, scream, scream, please, mud~~~!" Nina said in extremely poor bulk Xia Mandarin.
Several questions appeared on the heads of Yang Qian and Zhang Yumeng.
"What did she mean?"
"Want to eat fish?"
Yang Gan said helplessly, "Oh, what a sin, this woman's brain is not so good that she can't even learn what we say."
Zhang Yumeng smiled and said, "It's only been a few days, and you can let her know how it is possible."
Yang Qian had no choice but to use the common language of the grasslands and said, "What's going on?"
Hearing this, Nina let out a long sigh of relief, "Mr. Xiao asked me to invite you to report something important."
Yang Qian covered his head, who taught him this language? It’s so bad that it’s useless to use context.
Yang Gan took the two girls to the tent and asked, "Xiao Yu, what's the matter?"
"Sir, a message has been sent to the county. After the Eastern King held a banquet, all the seven major counties were in the process of transporting grain and grass."
Yang Qian struck his fists and said, "The fox's tail is finally exposed, okay, okay."
"Where are our tens of thousands of troops stationed now?"
"We are now stationed in a mountain col fifty miles away from the gateway to the East. Food and grass supplies are provided by the nearby counties."
Yang Gan nodded and said, "Split 30% of the food and grass at the border and transport it to the battlefield. I want to see what trouble this Dongwang can cause."
With Yang Gan's words and a few minutes of call time, the entire Yuntong County became lively.
In a wine shop, several Guizhou leaders and common people were drinking and chatting.
At this time, a young commoner came in and greeted Dunsi warmly when he saw an acquaintance.
"Everyone is here."
When everyone saw it, they immediately joked, "Hahaha, it turns out it's you."
Everyone knows that the conditions of young people's families are not good, not because they don't work hard, but because no matter how rich their family is, they cannot withstand the hard work of the elderly at home.
A rough calculation shows that there are at least 11 people in his family, and it is impossible to feed so many people with just a dozen acres of thin farmland.
But who asked the county governor to order a large amount of wasteland to be reclaimed and fattened without destroying the forest?
According to the instructions of the county governor, their family was allocated hundreds of acres of land. The young man was smart and rented some cattle and farm tools from the county governor's office.
In just one season, their family has turned around. Now if they work during the busy farming season, they should not live too casually the rest of the time.
The friend laughed and said, "Now that your family is prosperous, why do you still have time to come to this wine shop to drink?"
The young man smiled and said, "It's not the busy time for farming yet. The Sheriff's Mansion is recruiting people, and I plan to take my brother to try it."
Another friend said loudly, "What? The Sheriff's Mansion is recruiting people?"
The young man was stunned and asked, "Don't you know?"
Several friends shook their heads decisively.
The young man immediately explained, "I heard that some things need to be transported from Baiyunguan to the westernmost place in our county. I don't know where exactly. Anyway, a trip costs a lot of money."
"Fuck, so many?"
Several friends suddenly became energetic, but one of them was very angry.
"Humph, maybe it's to recruit corvees. The money is always a lot, but it also costs lives, and the corvee work lasts for three years, which is not cost-effective."
The young man looked around, sat on the cushion, and whispered, "I have a relative who works as an errand in the county magistrate's mansion."
"I heard that those who are recruited will be taught for three days, and then the slaves will be driven out and transported. We just need to see that nothing goes wrong."
"A trip lasts for about half a month at most, two meals a day, and meat."
"Meat."
Suddenly everyone's eyes lit up, and they started to worry about it. Even the pretentious friend pricked up his ears.
After understanding the matter clearly, these people, after eating and drinking, walked towards the governor's mansion.
When I arrived at the Sheriff's Mansion, I saw that the outside was already surrounded by water and the city guards were maintaining order.
This kind of scene is not only happening in Yuntong City, Tuncheng and Shoucheng are also urgently recruiting people.
When Yang Qian gave an order, the first person who had a headache was not Mi Le, but Shi Yuanji, who was the most easily ignored.
The slaves here are usually pulled to one place and then start working hard.
But after traveling a long distance and crossing the entire county, Shi Yuanji, who had not yet passed the escort of grain and grass, felt that there was a safety risk and felt that he could not bear it.
Immediately, after learning that the superiors agreed, he asked the county governor's office to cooperate in recruiting guards. Otherwise, if there were just a few guards, if the slaves committed suicide, things would get out of hand.
