"You don't have to worry about that." I said, "It is not necessary for you to move away immediately, nor for you to move on after your new crops have been harvested."
"So much the better." He was very satisfied to say: "these days, we can be bustling here, often Kings and chiefs to the new king city, they will stay here for a night. Not to hide from the chief, I made a fortune out of it."
I smiled approvingly and saw a teenager standing behind him.
"Is this your son?"
"Yes, chief." He pulled his son out and introduced him: "His name is Kovar, and he is my only son. I also have four daughters."
I fumbled for the coin and held it out. "You have done a great service to the tribe. Give it to your son."
He drew up his son on a horse, bowed his thanks, and took the gold. Half the children love to touch the gold coins. I never said a word. I'm bored.
"Come to our kingdom once in a blue moon, chief. Stay here tonight." "Asked the king.
"And will you take our money?" Zhang Yutong asked.
He waved his hand in a hurry and said he could take anyone's money, but he wouldn't take ours for anything.
I also wanted to take the opportunity to learn more about their lives, so I stayed. In the evening, cui Bin and Li Ding were called over. Everyone ate meat and drank wine together.
For the emergence of sweet potato wine, many people are very like.
Everyone together lively until midnight, just dispersed. When Cui Bin and Li Ding left, I borrowed twenty copper coins from Cui Bin. Leave the next day, let Zhang Yutong to the king's wife. They refused to take it anyway, but at our insistence, they did.
In the morning, I would go to the port to supervise shipbuilding. In the afternoon, I would go back to the palace and borrow the script form from Lao Cheng. We would learn to use the new script together.Because it is completely less pen painting Chinese, learning is also fast, but to master it is not so easy.
In the evening, after dinner, I went out for a walk with Lucie.
She suddenly said, "Husband, why did you suddenly make Cui Bin a knighthood?"
"He deserves some reward for his pains, but the situation we face does not warrant a better office for him, so a knighthood would be more appropriate." I explained again: "You were so opposed to why ah?"
"Only a leader now, not a real king yet. I just don't think it's right." "And you're so generous," said Lucie. "I'm afraid you'll give more than the Treasury can supply. We are very poor, you know."
"I wouldn't give a knighthood lightly, you may rest assured."
Lucie told me to be discreet about some things and said no more.
Again, about seven days later, I received word that Zhebe had returned with his fleet. When we passed the palace hall, we saw hundreds of people chanting something together. Curious, I took a peek and saw Old Cheng sitting upright on the top, followed by four disciples, all of whom were kneeling on the ground and chanting. It was very solemn and mysterious.
After turning to walk away, Luci approached and whispered, "Uncle Cheng, will you start preaching soon?"
"Not so fast. We haven't even finished teaching words yet."
"If Cheng Shu really let people to missionary words, you will do?"
The chiefs and Kings will know what to do. If too many people become Uncle Cheng's disciples, the number of their tribe will decrease. Do you think they will be willing?" More than 30,000 people are engaged in production. There was no room in the tribe for more men who ate and did not work.
Riding alpaca to the seaside, see Zhebie they are unloading.
After meeting, Zhebie reported that they had sold all the things they had brought. And the locations of other kingdoms and tribes.
When they went through what they had brought back, they found quite a lot. There are two large boxes of ink bricks, which, when ground, turn into ink that you can write on. There was also a box of pearls, and the rest was something to eat or use, but not very important.
"Chief, they all say they will trade with us. But we haven't got much, so I made an appointment with them to come back when the dry season comes." "Said Zhebe.
"Good, that's a good arrangement." With them all together, there's nothing we can trade.
"If there's nothing else, we'll just move the things back." Sage asks for advice.
I waved my hand. "Don't take it all away. Put a box of bricks and other things on the boat, and we'll take them with us when we go back to Cuckoo."
"Good." Zhebie immediately went to arrange.
I took two bricks of ink and led the two women back to the king's city. Let Zhang Yutong grind ink, I went to the place where the chickens are raised to catch a, the long hair on the tail raked down a few roots.
Cut a small cut in the tip of the feather with a dagger, then soak in warm water. Once the quill is soft, clean it out with long, thin bamboo sticks. One quill is all you need.
In the past, I watched the TV series about Europeans writing with feathers, and I wondered how they did it. Later, I checked the information on the Internet and found that they used this tool, which is the most original fountain pen.
Back to the room Zhang Yutong fell asleep on the table. After putting the paper on, I adjusted the ink myself, dipped the feather in, pinched the quill, and shook it twice to make sure there was no ink coming out. Then I began to write new words on the paper. It's not very pretty, but I have no problem writing.
"Brother Lu Fei, have you come back?"
Zhang Yutong climbed up, the cheek was a red print.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
"No, I don't know how I fell asleep." She glanced at the paper, snatched the quill away, and wrote a smooth line of English. It's so much nicer than my handwriting.
We took turns to waste two pieces of paper before we went to find Lao Cheng. He was writing something with charcoal in the house he was living in.
Cheng was delighted with what we had brought. He wrote a whole block for us to read.
But the joy of writing tools soon came to an abrupt end.
After another five or six days, the emissaries who followed Cheng to learn the new characters had all mastered the skills and grammar of the new characters.
I sent most of them to different kingdoms and tribes for elementary instruction.
Two new ships were built on schedule, but the new royal city was not. It will probably take another month. I decided to stay at Brass for another month.
One night, I found myself in a dungeon, a dirty cell just like the old ones on TV, with nothing but hay and dark floors. The passage of the cell was lined with guards, both natives and the monstrous men we had seen at the bottom of the sinkhole.
They stood like stakes, and I walked right in.
They saw strange people imprisoned inside, and when they saw me, they rushed to cry for injustice and help. The jailers would turn around and whip them. A man who was beaten was torn open.
As I walked on, I heard a woman's voice. Can't help but run past. Actually saw Li Wanxue was tied to the wooden column, naked, white skin and sexy body blood stains. There were two monsters beating her, naked and with a huge crotch.
"Wan snow......" I gripped the post of my cell excitedly.
The two monsters, both glaring at me, whipped her together. Li Wan xue wailed in pain.
Suddenly a monster put her head to pull up, a full face of tears li Wanxue saw me, loudly screaming: "Lu Fei, save me, save me... ."
Two monster people laugh very rampant, remove tie li Wanxue body of the chain, forced her to kneel on the ground, together with her violation.
Trembling with anger, I took out an axe and hacked open the wooden post door of the cell, directly cutting the two monsters into two pieces. After li Wanxue picked up, she leaned on my arms and smiled weakly at me: "Lu Fei, how did you just come, I miss you so much."
"Wan Xue, I will take you out." I hugged her, spread my legs and ran outside.
Along the way, the jailers whipped me. It hurt so much, but I still rushed out easily. Go to the outside just gasp for breath, only to find out that the outside actually and large monster people army waiting for us.
