What should I do if I accidentally come to the ancient times?

In Zhao Hao's opinion, this is really nothing, but for the people of the Taihua Department, it should be regarded as a relatively good gift.

Because he had already asked Ji Rushuang before he came here, in the Taihua Department, meat, leather goods and wine are relatively precious, and ordinary people cannot afford them.

Sure enough, when General Li saw the big basket brought up by his personal guards, he became very excited.

He rubbed his hands vigorously to conceal his excitement, and then pretended to be polite: "Oh, how dare I accept such a generous gift!"

Of course, this is just a superficial article. In fact, his eyeballs have been drilled into those baskets and can't get out.

Seeing this, Zhao Hao couldn't help smiling and said: "These are all produced by our Haotian Department, it's nothing, as long as General Li doesn't dislike it."

This pushing and pushing was actually not very interesting. General Li was a straightforward person. After being polite, he stopped pretending.

He cupped his hands excitedly, thanked him, and then shouted into the room: "Damn woman, you little bastards, hurry up, come out and move your things in."

With a "wow", four people, big and small, ran out of the room immediately.

A middle-aged woman, by the looks of it, should be General Li's woman, and the three young men and girls in their teens should be General Li's children.

This guy is really capable of giving birth!

General Li didn't care about the busy work of his own women and children, he just raised his hand and said politely: "Miss, Chief Haotian, please come inside, please come inside."

Seeing this, Zhao Hao waved his hand slightly, signaling the guards to go back first, and then followed General Li and Ji Rushuang into the room with great interest.

This General Li's house is better than he imagined, at least not the whole family has only one room, and they eat, drink and eat in one place.

Inside, it is still separated by a stone wall. Although there is no door in the doorway, it looks much better than the houses in the wild tribe.

Moreover, just after entering the room, there was a square wooden table and a few small benches in the middle of the lobby.

Not bad, really good.

After Zhao Hao sized him up for a while, he couldn't help but nodded slightly.

After General Li politely greeted them to sit down, he couldn't wait to say: "Miss, Chief Haotian, it's almost night, you must be hungry after a long day's journey, please wait a moment , I’m going to ask my mother-in-law to cook.”

Have a meal?

Hearing this, Ji Rushuang couldn't help looking at Zhao Hao with embarrassment.

The food in the Taihua Department is far worse than that in the Haotian Department. Can Zhao Hao eat it?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hao sat there with great interest, without any intention of getting up.

This cooking is definitely not something that can be done in one go. After that, it seems that they can only chat and wait.

Originally, Zhao Hao thought that there would be tea served, but unfortunately, it seems that tea has not been discovered these days, and he has no habit of drinking tea, and he doesn't even have the habit of serving plain water.

However, it doesn't matter, the reason why Zhao Hao is willing to sit and wait is not to drink tea.

He is more interested in the defense of Zhennanbao than in tea. After all, he is planning to join the Taihua Department this trip, so naturally he doesn't want the Nanman tribes to easily invade the hinterland of Nanhua.

Why is the defense of Zhennan Fort so stretched?

In other words, why do Nanhua elites look so messed up?

Zhao Hao probed around a bit, and finally understood.

It turned out that the Southern Man tribes basically did not have the habit of attacking the Taihua tribe. After all, the population of the Taihua tribe was frighteningly large, and the number of masters in the Taihua tribe was even more terrifying. If it was not for the desperate interests, The southern barbarian tribes generally would not call over.

And these days, there are not many benefits that are enough to make people desperate. The food that can make a tribe desperate is roughly food.

In the vast area of ​​Nanman, food is not very scarce. The small tribes in the wild jungle may not have enough to eat due to their strength, and they may starve to death. Such a situation basically does not exist in large tribes like the Xueman tribe.

Of course, it is not ruled out that if a tribe is strong enough to want to unify the whole country, no tribe in the Southern Barbarians is strong enough to have the confidence to overthrow the Taihua tribe. Therefore, it is very difficult to fight this battle.

General Li has been stationed here for many years, and he has never fought a war at all. After a long time, he has become a little slack.

Moreover, the Great Elder Nanhua usually only provides food, not vegetables. In order to improve their lives, everyone either grows vegetables or goes hunting. Generally, there are only two hundred people left in Zhennan Fort to take turns. Garrison.

This is the reason why General Li was slow to respond and hadn't organized his men to go to the river for a long time.

Also, Zhao Hao is also very interested in General Li's surname. The Ji surname of the Taihua Department was bestowed by the gods. How did the Li surname come about?

The reason is actually very simple. Just because the leadership of the Taihua Department has the surname Ji, the entire Taihua Department gradually has the custom of naming people according to their surnames, and the Li surname is said to have originated from a place densely covered with plum forests. .

They chatted for a long time, and the meal was finally served.

A frontier general like General Li is naturally not as rich as a tribal leader like Zhao Hao, and the dishes served are even much worse than what Zhao Hao usually eats. Seeing this, Ji Rushuang was really worried.

It would be embarrassing if Zhao Hao couldn't take a bite.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hao was holding a bowl, eating non-stop, picking up vegetables, eating with relish, full of praise!

Fragrant rice, I don't know how long I haven't eaten it.

When he came to the Taihua Department this time, what he wanted to eat most was rice.

There are also green vegetables, I don’t know how many years I haven’t eaten them, Haotian Department doesn’t have the habit of growing green vegetables.

This meal, Zhao Hao ate very well, if he didn't take care of his face, he really wanted to gobble it up and eat all the food!

Chapter 210 What is the situation

Go out of Zhennanbao, go northward for about three days, meet Luoshui, then turn westward along the river, and after about seven days, you will see Qinshan Mountain, southwest of Qinshan Mountain, and you will arrive there after another day.

This is the way Ji Rushuang remembers going home.

Luoshui is a very big river, much bigger than the big river they passed through when they came.

Zhao Hao estimated that the big river they passed should be a tributary of Luoshui, because from the perspective of the flow direction, the big river can only flow into Luoshui from south to north.

It's a pity that he hasn't seen the map of the entire Taihua Continent, and although Ji Rushuang has seen it, she didn't pay attention to such an unnamed river.

If they had a map, they could have sailed along the big river all the way north, entered Luoshui, and then sailed along Luoshui to reach Qinshan. In this way, it would be much more convenient for Ji Rushuang to go home.

The problem is that they don't have a map of the Taihua Continent at the moment, and Ji Rushuang has been taking the land route and has no impression of the waterway, so they can only take the land route, passing through Zhennan Fort, first going north, then going west .

Of course, the three days and seven days mentioned by Ji Rushuang are both the time to travel with both feet. If you ride a horse, it doesn't take three days, let alone seven days.

Early the next morning, after they left Zhennan Fort, they started galloping. The speed was naturally much faster than traveling with two feet.

The terrain of Nanhua became more open as it went north. They had only been riding for less than an hour, and the surrounding low hills gradually became thinner, replaced by basins one after another.

Moreover, there are paddy fields everywhere in the basin.
