Chapter eight hundred and ninety third small calculation big wisdom(1/2)
In the evening, the detailed telegram content finally came.
After the Meteor Team received the order, it organized an elite tracking team to enter the location of Zhenla. The logistics team followed one after another, dispatching more than 1,600 people.
There were five tribes that had been staying along the way, three of which were destroyed, killing 461 people. These people who were killed not only did not give any useful information, but also wanted to block them through force and poison them.
According to the order issued by Wang Juan, all the blockers were killed, so the heads of 461 people were cut off, and they were pickled and hidden at the same time, and they were taken together when they were caught, or they were retrieved by the people in the second tier who followed, and they have not returned yet.
The remaining two tribes are very easy to talk about. They not only point out the way for the people of the Meteor Team, but also provide some vegetables. The people of the Meteor Team exchanged with the two tribes with the meat they hunted during the hunting process.
At the same time, I also introduced the current situation of the Tang Dynasty to the two tribes. They were welcome to settle in the border areas first, where the original tribes had already spread out.
In this way, people from two tribes can contact each other first and then deepen the exchange according to the situation.
Then he went straight to the royal city and forcibly brought out the envoy who had bullied the women of his country and his other entourages without any force. Just the King of Zhenla, Bafa Valman, sent someone to ask, and then stopped caring about it.
Of course, he did not take the initiative to send his troops to help arrest people, and at the same time he also asked someone to block the news and did not allow this matter to spread among the people. He probably was afraid of affecting the people's hearts.
At present, the people from the Meteor Team were escorting people back as quickly as possible. On the way, they found a place with a signal number to transmit the message to the transit radio station, all the way to Yizhou.
After reading the contents of the telegram, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan looked at each other and smiled.
"It seems that Bafa Valman is quite sensible in the current affairs. I thought that when I went to his royal city, he would arrest the one who had just returned, so he would argue, or protest, or even send troops to protect the people. Unexpectedly, he would let go."
Zhang Xiaobao said to Wang Juan with a smile.
Wang Juan picked up the paper and kneaded it into a ball and threw it into the trash can, shook his head gently. He said, "Maybe he wanted to paralyze us first, and then fight in a row. We have to give him some pressure first. However, their ordinary tribe is still united and dares to stop our people and poison them. Unfortunately, there is no good result."
"Yes, it can really kill. More than 400 people will be killed, perhaps all the young and strong people in the three tribes will be solved. Why bother to run to my Tang Dynasty to bully two weak women, and see, how many lives will be needed to fill it?"
Zhang Xiaobao also shook his head. There were indeed many people who died, but he did not regret it and did not feel guilty. Killing is not the purpose, but a means. This time, the news spread afterwards, and the Tang Dynasty was safe from the adjacent places.
King Zhenla did not want the news to be released, but he could help the other party spread the news to various places, and he also had to spread it in a big way and write it to the newspapers for people of the Tang Dynasty to see it and feel the strength of his country.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan discussed again. In order to continue to put pressure on Zhen La and make them still as honest and stable as before, the two decided to set off in three days. Go slowly and walk downstream.
Go to Dianchi Lake to see the scenery, then change to the west, cross the Lancang River, continue to go west, and enter India's territory, or the Piao Kingdom, that is, Myanmar.
To walk slowly, and to arrange for other countries the intelligence personnel who come to Yizhou to go back quickly. If they are too stupid and are not as fast as their own side to walk slowly, they have to find ways to use other means to get information from their intelligence personnel elsewhere.
From Yizhou to the bottom, it will give people the feeling of going directly to Zhenla. After the king of Zhenla knows it, he will see if he will add a letter of apology to send it.
The purpose of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan in the past was not to fight, but to understand the specialty situations of various places along the way, such as jade and jade, these things need to be developed well, as well as gold ore.
In addition, we will do more detailed drawings to see where we can build roads and take over them in the future. We cannot still risk our lives from the mountains and go through the forest like we are now.
Take a walk and you can come back in winter, continue to choose a place, and then go there to build a place.
****
Three days passed quickly.
Xiao Bei and the other two had packed their luggage and said goodbye to the children in the school. They also left "homework" for the little boy who liked to play Monopoly. In fact, they were asked to calculate the various data in the game and remember the environment of the passing places. Then they wrote a letter and sent it to Xiao Bei and others, and then replied.
The little boy was very reluctant to leave, and playing games increased a lot of knowledge. Compared with children of the same age, he obviously learned more knowledge, which made him yearn for the study and life in the school. This is how people are. When they are not as enthusiastic as others, they have no motivation to learn. Once they are stronger in one aspect, they will be stronger in this aspect because they want to maintain this advantage.
The team of Zhang and Wang family took a boat and made great efforts to promote it, saying that they were going to Annan Protectorate, and then turned around and went to another place. They also organized a farewell party and left while the people saw him off.
As soon as they left, the officials in Yizhou clearly felt more pressure. Many of the things arranged by Zhang and Wang families after they came, and if they did not do well, the results would not be very good.
*******
The fleet was sailing slowly on the river surface. In order to slow down the speed downstream, the ship also set sail against the wind, which could offset the power of some of the water flow.
Other ships wish they could have more wings so that they could be faster.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were afraid that Zhenla's intelligence personnel would not be able to transmit the news back in time, so they sent it to the Annan Protectorate, asking them to carry out a lot of publicity in the local area, saying that the Zhang and Wang families were coming soon, and they also brought a large army, so they had to organize people in advance to level the resting place of the Zhang and Wang families.
Moreover, the real construction started, and the local people also had to organize it to help build houses and other things. The money was paid by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
In fact, they would not go there at all. The built buildings and flat sites can be used to do other things for the local area, just to help build the local area.
"So busy." Zhang Xiaobao stood at the bow of the boat and sighed.
"It's nothing we can do if we are busy. In fact, compared to ordinary people, we are already very relaxed. We don't need to get up early every day and return home late. And what we do is more meaningful than theirs. I don't plan to live that kind of home - where to work - home, such a two-point and one-minute life."
Wang Juan stood beside Zhang Xiaobao and said to Zhang Xiaobao.
Zhang Xiaobao pointed his hand at other ships passing by the river: "I'm not talking about us, they are them. Our fleet occupies a route for others, and this is still all the ships line up. If they come across, others will not expect to leave."
Wang Juan looked along the place where Zhang Xiaobao pointed, and it turned out that. It was indeed very busy. A large cargo ship went upstream to the front. He was now driving slowly, and he was buying things to eat at the same time.
Normally, the ship prepares food on its own, but depending on the situation, in order to carry more cargo, the ship eats as it goes along the way and buys somewhere where it goes.
People with boats near the two sides of the strait have an extra business. They will prepare their food and put them on the boat in large buckets. Then they shake the boat into the river with small sails hanging on it, and the words "selling lunch boxes" are written on the sails.
Many cargo ships passing by will let them go, then use ropes to lift the food, pour out the food, and then hang the bucket back, which is very convenient. It also saves manpower, and does not need to arrange extra kitchen cooking, let alone prepare food, and if you drink water, you can just cook it.
The only disadvantage is that the consumption is large. The food I bought is more expensive than making it yourself, but not much, otherwise it will be unpaid.
Wang Juan really didn't see this situation. Now she saw it, took a telescope and took a closer look.
The large cargo ship happened to be countercurrent, with a low speed, and the small boat turned flexibly and was easy to lean over, but it looked very dangerous. If you accidentally hit the small boat and it would be impossible to die, the ship would inevitably be destroyed.
"It's very interesting, right?" Zhang Xiaobao smiled when he saw Wang Juan looking over there and said to her: "In fact, this is the pursuit of life, and fairness cannot happen. Look at the people on the boat, they have the skills to control the boat, and at the same time they can think of this method and are willing to work hard for it."
"The food you cook should taste good, otherwise there would be competition." Wang Juan said.
She knew what Zhang Xiaobao meant. This group of people who rowed and sold food must make more money than others. With money, they could hire others to continue to expand their business, build more ships, and cook more food to sell.
Income will increase more, and the people they hire are certainly not as good as their income. The word exploitation can appear, and social income fairness will be broken.
But when they make more money, they must collect more taxes from them, otherwise society will be in turmoil, which is another unfair to them. People are smart and work hard for them and make money cleanly, but there are always people who will be jealous.
"It's not easy, it's not easy, whether it's smart or stupid, plus those of us who help them maintain it, live, everything is for a better life." Zhang Xiaobao sighed again, like a philosopher.
"Let's buy one to try, too." Xiao Bei's voice sounded not far away.
They also don’t want to stay in the cabin, run to the deck, bask in the sun, see the scenery, and wait for others to fall into the water to save them. This is a not-so-authentic mind, so there is no expectation for others to fall into the water.
But Xiaobei and the others thought so. Unfortunately, this dream was not so easy to realize. There were many ships coming and going, and the people who ran the boat were proficient in water. Even if they fell in, it was estimated that before Xiaobei and the others could save themselves or let others save them.
Following Xiao Bei's order, someone immediately shouted to the place, asking the rice sellers to come over. Someone else went to prepare a large basin to serve the food.
The Tang Dynasty's unique rice seedling flag was known to everyone. When they saw this, the rice seller urged the people on the cargo ship to send the money.
When the money is received, the person selling the food turns the rudder and observes the distance between the two sides, and moves diagonally with the current of the water.
The ship on Zhang Xiaobao's side was also moving forward, and the speed was not fast. He waited for a while. The rice-selling ship happened to rudder downstream and walked parallel to the big ship.
The boat was pushed by the water of the big ship and looked dangerous, and it seemed to be able to overturn at any time. There were four people on the boat, and two of them specifically controlled the oars, allowing the boat to fight against the water brought out by the big ship again and again to maintain the balance of the boat.
Xiao Bei looked down and said, "It's not easy. Let me row. I promise to overturn the boat into the water. Then swim to the shore. But only by doing something, you will get something. It looks like a family, which is good."
The people on the boat threw the rope down, and at the same time, there were people stretching over two long poles on the deck. The people who rowed the boat no longer had to control the oars, and directly grabbed the poles, fixed their small boats, and went in the same direction as the big boat.
When Xiao Bei saw it, he ran into the cabin. When he came out, he took a big trumpet and shouted to the bottom: "Learn to learn. In the future, with two bamboo poles on his boat, why bother to control the oars?"
The man who was holding the pole on the boat looked up and shouted to Xiao Bei: "Thank you, I didn't expect it before."
"Look, am I very great?" Xiao Bei felt that he had done something very big, and asked Xiaoyuan, who was also looking at the boat.
Xiaoyuan wisely replied: "Great, it's so great. After you taste the food later, you can also give suggestions on improvements, which is even greater."
"Okay." Xiao Bei agreed. Then he showed a embarrassed look: "If it's too unpalatable, can I give you the leftovers?"
"Serve it on a small plate. Let's eat one. I will give it my best. I just need to take a large amount of food. I don't believe I can eat it to death." Xiaoyuan took out great courage.
Xiaobei smiled happily, and she was having fun. Unexpectedly, Xiaoyuan cooperated so well.
The bucket for the meal was quickly picked up, two buckets of vegetables, one bucket of rice, a ratio of two to one. There was also a box made of bamboo on one bucket of vegetables, which contained pickles.
Someone below shouted: "If you don't sell pickles, we will eat them ourselves, so let's try them."
"Thank you." Xiao Bei shouted back with the loudspeaker. After shouting, he wondered and asked Xiaoyuan: "Why don't they sell pickles?"
"Because pickles are not delicious, right?" Xiaoyuan replied uncertainly, then shook his head: "No, if it is not delicious, he will give us it? Don't give them money for pickles, give them two packs of snacks, and give them a small jar of fermented bean curd and stinky tofu, so it's a good deal."
Xiao Yuan's words later were given instructions to the inner courtyard of his home. They were used to it. If others gave things, they would not give money and would send back other things. In fact, they would pay for them every time. The value of the things they gave was often several times, or even dozens of times, that was worth the things they gave, which were given.
But once they meet, they are still very happy and willing to send back something more valuable.
The food was poured out, and the snacks, fermented bean curd and stinky tofu were put into the rice bucket, and then hung them back.
Xiaobei tried pickles, very ordinary cucumber and radish pickles, but the taste was really good.
After slapping the mouth, Xiao Bei was even more puzzled: "It's delicious. There's also some sesame oil in it, especially this cucumber, which is actually soaked in the sauce. It has a sauce-flavored aroma. If it is sold, many people will definitely like it. Could it be that the yield cannot keep up? Brother."
Xiao Bei couldn't figure it out, so he asked his brother, so he naturally asked Zhang Xiaobao, not Xiaohai.
Zhang Xiaobao looked at the pickles, then the dishes, and said to his sister: "Because the people who take the cargo ships are also smart."
"What does it mean?" Xiao Bei asked.
"If you sell pickles, the price of pickles will be cheaper than that of vegetables, and pickles will be saltier than vegetables. At that time, the people on the cargo ship may only buy a bucket of vegetables and then buy a little pickles. Wouldn't those who sell the food make less money?"
Zhang Xiaobao explained to Xiaobei.
Xiaobei and the nine little guys opened their mouths one by one, looked at the pickles in surprise, and then looked at the dishes poured out, looking speechless.
"They... they just have such a little trick?" Xiao Bei sighed. She felt that this person was too difficult to locate. A food seller was even using tricks.
Zhang Xiaobao smiled and said, "It is not a small calculation, it is the wisdom in life. It is supported by these small wisdom in our country. All industries and things can learn knowledge from it. Then, promote the development of society, and when society develops, more small wisdom will appear.
Little by little, the country will become stronger. Otherwise, look at the people in other places, they are all very stupid. If there is less wisdom in carpentry, the carpenter will not be able to do well; if there is less wisdom in bricklayers, the house will not be able to be built; if there is no less wisdom in the cook, how can we figure out better new dishes?
