351 The winter of the sixteenth year of Zhenguan


Now that the situation is like this, Luo Yong doesn't know whether those Turks can still attack Yizhou.

Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test Now not only the Turks heard the news, but also the Yizhou people, and Qiao Shiwang who was stationed in Dunhuang also heard the news.

That Qiao Shiwang was very good at fighting.

When the Turks attacked Gaochang, Li Daozong's army had not arrived yet, so he led thousands of cavalry to Gaochang and resisted the Turks army together with the Gaochang army.

They fought several times.

A good fight.

Now that I heard that the Turks are going to fight over, those Yiwu people are really working hard to build roads.

Although they are still a little resistant to the Central Plains Dynasty's overly tight control of the Yiwu area, if the Turks really come over, it won't be reliable.

In the Tang Dynasty's army, how many sergeants did Yiwu have in total?

How could he withstand it?

The governor of Yizhou sent people to Dunhuang to ask for help.

Qiao Shiwang was also very happy.

He said that Yizhou was the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

If a powerful enemy attacked, he should lead the troops to fight.

When the Yiwu people heard this, they were very moved.

Although they had joined the Tang Dynasty, they were also afraid that the Tang Dynasty would lose control at this critical moment.

Ever since the news spread that the Turks were going to attack Yiwu, not only the local people in Yiwu were panic-stricken, but also many small countries in the west were uneasy.

The Turks have been divided and civil strife for many years.

Earlier, Na Yibi Duolu killed Yehu Khan, and his power became stronger for a while, and his control over the Western Regions was also strengthened.

Hu merchants said that he would attack Yizhou at this time, and many people Believe it.

However, at this time when people were in turmoil, another major event happened in Longxi, that is, the Central Plains Dynasty sent veteran Guo Xiaoke to serve as the governor of Liangzhou, the governor of Anxi, and the governor of Xizhou.

This Guo Xiaoke was also from Wagangzhai, and later joined the Tang Dynasty.

He had made great military exploits for Li Tang.

At this time, when Guo Xiaoke came, many people in Longxi knew that the saint was going to exert force on the Western Regions.

Guo Xiaoke is a high-profile person who likes to enjoy life, but overall he is still reliable and can fight well.

When they were passing through Changle County, Luo Yong gave them several carts of good liquor.

Lao Guo was very happy and gave Magistrate Luo several gold and silver utensils in return.

They were all very exquisite and luxurious items.

Magistrate Luo wanted to He melted them and used them as money, but he was afraid that Guo Duhu would be unhappy after hearing about them, and it would seem very out of place in his small county government, so he had to put them in the treasury to gather dust.

Guo Xiaoke took office, and he was the governor of Liangzhou, the governor of Xizhou, and the governor of Anxi.

Basically, the whole of Longxi was under his control.

Naturally, Qiao Shiwang's position as the top leader had to be handed over.

Originally, Qiao Shiwang was just a border guard general.

After the Battle of Gaochang two years ago, the imperial court established the Anxi Protectorate in Longxi.

No officials took office for a while, so he temporarily took over the position of the Anxi Protector.

After all, he was the governor of Anxi.

He still lacks qualifications and military exploits.

He can't take the position of leader in Longxi.

He has no choice but not enough level.

Because of the rumor that the Turks were going to attack Yizhou, Changle County was also a little uneasy in the autumn of this year.

There were also rumors that the reason why Guo Xiaoke came to Longxi was for the Turks.

This time even those If the Turks don't fight over, the Tang army will take the initiative to fight over.

People are uneasy, the market is also turbulent, and food prices remain high.

Fortunately, in the current Changle County area, as long as the families are not too poor, they can generally save some money, and most families have grain stores.

In the past, if their local people had any expenses, they would probably exchange them for food and cloth.

Nowadays, even the poorest people can grind needles and earn some money.

In this case, who would be so stupid?

The family's food was sold out.

After all, wars were common in their Longxi area.

However, even in such a tense situation, during the harvest season of Baidiehua, many merchants from Liangzhou and other places still came to Changle County to buy goods, and there were even many people from the Central Plains.

Some of these people came to buy cloth, some came to buy seeds, and many came specifically for the cotton gin.

These people were noisy in Changle County.

Until winter came, there were still many people who had no money. leave.

After the wooden track leading to Yizhou was laid, many Yiwu merchants came and went in the Jinchang area of ​​​​Changle, so this winter Changle County became more and more lively every day.

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the northwest wind was blowing outside, but business was booming in various shops on the street.

There was one who was waiting for Luo Erniang's cashmere workshop to produce cloth.

She had lived in this county town for several months. , which caused these restaurants and guesthouses in the county to make some money.

On this day, a group of merchants came from Jinchang.

Because they brought a lot of goods and were stingy with copper coins, they were reluctant to hire a wooden carriage to ride on it, so they walked along the post road paved with cement pavement.

In winter, the wind and sand were strong, the weather was very cold, and the journey was difficult.

They set out from Jinchang City in the early morning, and by the evening, they still could not reach Changle County.

It was not far away, but there were not enough people and animals.

It was getting dark, so I stopped rushing and stayed in a small village next to the post road.

I bought some food and hot dishes with the villagers.

The host is very enthusiastic and the price is very fair.

It is said that in winter, when the day is short, merchants coming from Jinchang City often get dark when they walk to their village, so some of them often stay in their village.

When the food was served, the men who had been exposed to the cold wind all day in the desert were not polite and started eating.

The host also set up another table in the corner of the hall, and the whole family gathered around the table.

Have a meal.

The caravan group looked dusty, their clothes were no different from the people in this area, and they acted with a bit of arrogance.

In fact, they came from the Central Plains.

The reason why they changed into local clothes and learned their accents and manners was because they didn't want to be seen as foreigners and be bullied by evil people.

At this time, these Central Plains people looked at the food at the host's house, which was slightly worse than the food at their table.

They, the paid guests, were eating new food, while the food on the other side seemed to be old food.

A basket of mixed flour pancakes and a large pot of mutton stew were the family's dinner.

It was not a bad meal.

There were bean sprouts in the mutton stew, and a few green onion leaves could be seen.

What's strange is that not only do men and women in this family eat at the same table, but the two little girls in their family eat no worse or less than the boys at home.

Just now I saw the woman tearing off half a piece of new dough cake for each of the two girls.

This is a treatment that even the male master of the family has never received.

In this day and age, whatever good things are available at home should be used to show filial piety to the elderly.

In fact, most elderly people are reluctant to eat them, and most of them will be left to the strong laborers of the family.

The strong laborers are the backbone of the family.

If this pillar is If it falls, the sky will fall.

After a strong laborer, he becomes the son of the family.

When the man grows up, he can divide the land, marry a wife and have children to expand the family.

At this time, no one wants to have a family with a large number of people and a large number of people.

This cannot be expected.

Girls can only rely on boys.

Although the Central Plains region also favors boys over girls, the vast majority of people can still treat women as human beings, but the barbarians outside the customs are different.

Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net

I heard that on the prairie, women are treated as property just like cattle and sheep.

When the father dies, the son inherits, and when the elder brother dies, the younger brother inherits.

Whenever there is a war between tribes, it is to grab territory, cattle, sheep, women, and even women.

Even children are robbed.

The folk customs in this land in Longxi are fierce and fierce, and Hu and Han people live together.

From what they saw and heard along the way, the status of women here is generally not as good as that in the Central Plains.

This is also foreseeable.

The more backward and barbaric a place is, the more difficult it will be for the weak to survive.

When we arrived in the Jinchang area, the situation was a little different.

We could often see some half-grown ladies playing in the streets, as if they had nothing to worry about.

Looking at their clothes, they didn't look like they were born into very wealthy families.

Although there were doubts in their hearts, the group of them did not ask any more questions.

In line with the principle that doing more is worse than doing less, they just immersed themselves in their journey until they arrived at this small village not far outside Changle County that night and met this family.

Treating the daughter of the family like this, someone finally couldn't help but ask.

"Why do I see that the people in your area treat their daughters much better than elsewhere?"

"That's very strange."

The host smiled and said, "Children from rich families are well fed, while children from poor families are poorly fed.

Regardless of what kind of family they are born into, it is their personal blessing.

Girls.

If a child is born in our Changle County, no matter whether he comes from a rich or poor family, he will probably be blessed. " "A girl aged 12 or 13 can earn a little forty or fifty cash per month if she is sent to that cashmere workshop.

A boy aged 12 or 13 cannot earn so much."

"Luo Erniang's cashmere workshop has taken in many young ladies earlier.

When my two are older, I will also send them there in the future."

"If you eat well and dress well there, your life will be much more comfortable than here."

"Before, some people were sent home because they didn't work well, and they cried like tears."

"Some of them have done well and have been promoted to small stewards.

Their families are now very prosperous.

They have said that they will be able to become senior stewards in a short time, and they can earn three hundred coins a month." "" People in rural villages don't have any precautions against others.

In addition, this is not a rare thing.

The whole family talked to each other and told these strangers.

The original merchants in this group were very surprised when they heard about it.

When they were in the Central Plains earlier, they had often heard about Luo Sanlang.

Some people say that Rishi Luo Sanlang is very capable, while others say that he comes from a humble background and behaves with a full sense of pettiness.

Even though he has become an official, he is still full of copper odor and unbearable vulgarity.

They also say that he is now starting to Longxi is doing business, how can this be a serious way of being an official?

They heard what those people said before, and they thought it was quite reasonable.

After all, being an official requires acting like an official.

Now listening to what this family said, not to mention Naluo Yong, Naluo Erniang alone is a fairy-like figure in the eyes of these local young ladies.

Although she is a merchant, she is very respected by others.

Their group of people were also merchants, scholars, farmers, and merchants.

The status of merchants was the lowest, and it had been like this since ancient times.

Although they were unwilling to do so, they had no choice but to do anything.

Why is it not like that in Changle County?
