1.39 Hanfeng Express
At the beginning of the month, Liu Bei received a note from Cui Jun.
He explained the whole story of sending and pulling the spear at the eight-sided spear, and said that his father Cui Lie also wanted a mattress.
What's the difficulty?
It’s just that the ice has not melted and the river is blocked. How can I deliver it?
My mother laughed and said, "What's the difficulty?"
I asked the old clan leader to pass the message, and the postman came soon.
I saw the mailman wearing a red scarf on his head, a red sleeve on his back, and a red and white paper bag on his back. He ran back and forth, walking as fast as flying, very eye-catching.
It turns out that the postal communication at this time should not be too developed!
Even if you want to send a letter to go abroad, it's fine!
Don't we have a Silk Road?
At this time, it is collectively called "Youyi". It is also divided into "Youyi", "Ting", "Yi", and "Chuan". One mail is set up for five miles, one pavilion is set up for ten miles, and one mail is set up for thirty miles (Chuan). The level of "Yi" and "Chuan" is the same, but the difference is that the vehicle is: "Zhuan" uses a car, and "Yi" uses a horse.
Postal posts are managed by three levels: prefecture, county and county. One of the most valued officials in the county government is the famous "Supervisor". They are not only in charge of postal letters, but also in charge of the inspector and chief official. They are a powerful official.
"Trust officials" and "posts and soldiers" dress uniformly. "Ma Chuan" travels three or four hundred miles a day, and "Car Chuan" can be 70. It is very fast.
There is no need to worry about overdue payment.
There is a law that says "If you don't have to pay a letter every day, you will not be able to lose your time, and you will be punished and you will be kept by your crime."
There are three delivery methods: "postal mail", "horse mail", and "sport". Postal mail refers to mail strolling. Horse mail means riding a horse and driving a car.
No matter what method, the message is sent, and the posts and soldiers from five miles apart, ten miles apart, and thirty miles apart are connected to each other.
In this era, post offices only transmit official documents and government items, and are not open to the public.
The people's letters were sent to each other, and the caravans carried it together. Fortunately, Liu Bei's ninth uncle was the village's guru, and he could barely call the mail soldiers. The guru should have no salary. As far as Liu Bei knew, among the official ranks of the Han Dynasty, the lowest level was "Super Shi". The monthly salary was eight hu, which was called fighting food. It was about "Suijie" and was among the auxiliary historical. It was the "Suijian" with a monthly salary of sixteen hu of grain.
Another reason why the mail came late was that the things Liu Bei sent were large items.
It weighs hundreds of pounds and is several feet square. It is not possible to use a 'postal shop' or 'horse shop'. You can only use a car.
Private mail is expensive.
Fortunately, Liu Bei can afford it.
Fill in the form of "On the fifth day of the second month of the first year of Jianning, Liu Bei, Luchengting, Zhuo County, Zhuo County, Zhuo County, and Cui Jun, Dongchengting, Guoanping County, Guoanping., and traveled., and paid a sufficient amount of postage. The first package in life was sent successfully.
Seeing the carriage drive out of the village entrance, Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh. There are so many unexpected surprises in this era before him.
Just after the vernal equinox, the family hired people to prepare for farming and open the canals to start rice cultivation in the new year.
Under the supervision of the craftsman, the children of the clan also built the first batch of mattresses and piled them in the ancestral hall.
When the Xuehua Road is open, Liu Bei is going to send it to Laoyadu first, and Geng Yong and Cui Jun help sell it. This pure natural health mattress that is moderately soft and hard, breathable and sweat-proof, anti-mildew and resistant to mortality is very popular among the two elders of the Cui family. It is because the two of them are old and weak and osteoporous. The bed should not be too soft or too hard. If it is hard, the whole body will be red and swollen, and the back will be sore and painful. It is not soft or hard, which is called moderate.
The appearance of the hemp pad is like a joy falling from the sky.
The gospel of famous people in the world.
The front hall is short.
Accompanied by the warm smoke from the copper furnace, Liu Bei was carefully watching the renovation board of the old house sent by the old craftsman.
There are two most eye-catching buildings on the drawing board. One is the watch building and the other is the warehouse building.
The watchtower is the watchtower for later generations. The warehouse building is the warehouse for storing grain.
One is used for early warning and the other is used for storing grain.
For powerful landlords, these two things are related to life and death, and are the top priority.
At the backyard, Liu Bei has built a building in the backyard. It is usually useless, and occasionally climbing up to the top and looking forward to it is due to momentary interest. There is almost no early warning function. There is only a mother and son and Gongsun at home. They have to do it themselves when cooking and feeding horses, so how can there be extra people doing these? Besides, there is nothing to be remembered by the thieves.
By the way, the female assassin has not seen her for many days, and she really misses her a little.
The four corner buildings are well designed. The front hall has been transformed from the current double-eaved house to a two-story heavy building. It is connected to the surrounding corner buildings by a bridge built on the wall. The back hall has become an atrium. It starts with three-story heavy building. Then there is the backyard. The main building of the backyard is the same as the front building, and it also has two floors.
The layout of heavy building of two, three and two.
There are also wells, farmlands, stables, cow prisons, chicken steaks, etc. in the yard, which are distributed among them.
Liu Bei felt that farmland was not needed. He just needed to build a large warehouse and store more grain. Anyway, there were only three people in the family.
It is best to convert it into a three-story, connected cabinet building.
"In March, we can make money, repair walls and houses, build doors, and set up guards to prevent the enemy from stealing the hungry grass in spring."
This is also a record in the "Four Minutes and Monthly Orders".
After the Qingming Festival, the clans hired by the family began to plow, rake, and carefully manage the seedling fields.
Therefore, after reading this book thoroughly and combining its original experience, Liu Bei was able to arrange his production and life in an orderly manner. This book is really too powerful.
It is said that Cui Shangshu was in the local area for a long time and knew the sufferings of the people, and could relieve the sufferings of the people.
When he was the prefect of Wuyuan, although the land was good at planting hemp, the people did not know about textiles. The people had no winter clothes and lived in grass. When they saw officials, they would "wear grass came out" (slept in grass nests, covered with wheat straw). Cui Da sold his savings and earned more than 200,000 yuan, bought utensils, hired good teachers, and received the skills of planting hemp and textiles, so that the people could avoid the pain of coldness.
It is precisely because of this wise man that I wrote the "Four People's Monthly Orders".
Cui Jun had received the mattress sent by Liu Bei. Cui's father tried it and called it a "strange thing". He praised it very much. Not only did he ask Cui Jun to send a lot of money and silver gifts, but he also wrote the eight Han Lishu, "Lou Sang Brocade Mat, which is amazing."
Who is Cui Lie?
Famous scholars in the world!
Handwritten is equivalent to guarantee. From then on, Lou Sang Brocade Bread can become famous all over the world!
Seeing that Liu Bei did not refuse his father's gift, Cui Jun couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. This detail was accidentally caught by Liu Bei.
After thinking about it carefully, I couldn't help but smile.
When Liu Bei went to send mats and jelly that day, the Secretary of State Cui Wei happily wrote "Fruit Xianwu, Zhuo County Liu" to express his appreciation. I believe Cui Lie, who was an official in the court, also heard about it, so he asked Cui Jun for Liu Bei's affairs. Perhaps Cui Jun wrote that day to ask for mats for his father, not Cui Lie's original intention. But Cui Jun's intention as his son.
After sending it to the Cui Family Village in Anping, Cui Jun forwarded it to his father Cui Lie, an official in Luoyang. The road was long and long. So after more than a month, Cui Jun sent a gift back.
The reason why I sent hand-written books was not only that the hemp pads were really comfortable, but also that I didn’t let my cousin Cui Shi write inscriptions, and I focused on the previous thoughts.
Cui Shi asked six characters, and he asked eight characters. Even if he wanted to go over the number of characters, he had to press one end.
Children of aristocratic families can fight but not break.
interesting.
The biggest reason here is that Cui Lie has written the inscriptions, how could Cui Lie not write it?
With the inscription guarantee from the two elders of the Cui family, Liu Bei's hemp pads and jelly will definitely be sold out.
It is impolite to come but not come.
So I stayed Cui Jun in a guest house for several days and prepared two boxes of jelly for the two elders of Cui.
The mulberry fruits outside the yard have premature ripened.
Liu Bei called his brothers to climb the tree to get fruit. Cui Jun knew his intentions and also came to the tree to help. On the tree, there was laughter and joy, which was very lively. I heard that it was Anping’s distinguished guest, and the old patriarch rushed over and talked to Cui Jun under the tree. Cui Jun’s words and deeds were generous, with aligned and harmonious manners, and there were many family styles.
The old patriarch was very happy.
Where does joy come from?
