Then he asked Su Dingfang, the guard of Fuyu City, to help spread the news to all the foreign races in the surrounding area, and invite their people with status to watch the ceremony. Datang will hold a grand activity of fishing under the ice, which is said to bring good things to the participants. transport.

Coincidentally, Du He found the nearest and most suitable place for winter fishing. It happened to be Chagan Lake in later generations, and the location of Fuyu City was Songyuan City in later generations.

But Datang's prestige has been growing in the past few years. Using the name of Datang to invite the surrounding small countries to watch the ceremony is to give them face, so the leaders of Shiwei, Mohe, Khitan and other tribes rushed to Fuyu City.

Even Goguryeo sent members of the royal family with very high status.

Of course, part of the reason is that the entertainment industry is too scarce in this era. People call winter cat winter. If it is not because of boredom, who wants to sit still?It's finally a big event, who doesn't like to join in the fun?

In Fuyu City, Fang Yiai approached Du He suspiciously and asked: "Qinglian, is that winter fishing you said true or not? It must be fishing under the ice, not the same as last time, you take someone there Digging for fish frozen in ice cubes?

To be honest, digging out the fish in the ice cubes is too boring, you let people come to watch the ceremony, it seems a bit like playing tricks. "

Du He had black hair, and he thought that this small talk would not turn corners at all, "Don't worry, Yiai, this is a unique skill taught by elder brother. I heard Er Hu said that it has been done on the Wei River in Chang'an, that is, fishing under the ice. , and it is very spectacular, a fishing of 10,000+ catties has been written into the history books."

"Really? Are you bragging more and more mysterious? 10,000+ catties? The biggest fish I've ever seen is only about 10,000 catties, [-]+ catties? How many fish do you have?" Fang Yiai didn't believe it.

Not only him, but even Su Dingfang was skeptical.

"It doesn't matter, you'll believe me once we catch everyone. This time we have to show our face in front of the surrounding alien races. You are born with supernatural powers. Then you may not be asked to catch the net yourself." Du He said confidently.

"Okay, okay, isn't the strength of the shoulders that you were born with used for?

I heard that Erhu is here, this guy, we have stayed together for more than a year anyway, and he didn't come to see me. "Fang Yiai complained.

"He was sent by me to that Shui Paozi to survey the terrain. The fishing is all under the command of Er Hu. After the matter is completed, let's have a full fish feast."

"Don't mention the whole fish feast, Gao Yang said that the fish soup is not tasty at all, the most important thing is that it still smells like fish.

They also warned me that they would not let me go to the kang if they smelled fishy in the future.

Let's talk about something else, bro. "Fang Yiai smiled wryly.

"That's because our group doesn't know how to do it. Erhu also brought the secret fish recipe taught by his elder brother. He can easily show Gao Yang and he will be taken down."

real or fake?

Fang Yiai was dubiously dragged by Du He to receive the foreign guests. After all, Fuyu City is not big and there are not many troops, and it seems that Su Dingfang and the others are the only generals available.

In a few days, the special envoys of all the surrounding ethnic groups gathered together, and the winter fishing in Fuyu City also kicked off. Except for the Goguryeo people who often go fishing in the sea, they are curious about winter fishing, and the other ethnic groups are very curious. Is it still possible to fish under the ice?

Chapter 477 Who owns the head fish? (two in one)

Seeing countless soldiers of the Tang Dynasty busy on the lake, the envoy of Goguryeo said to Su Lie, the guard of Fuyu City, with some disdain: "General Su, if we talk about fishing, we in Goguryeo dare to call it the number one in the world. We grow food for a living, and half of our livelihood depends on aquatic products.

But this thing about fishing under the ice is really unheard of and unseen. We also see that you have been busy for a long time. Could it be that you are letting everyone eat wind and snow in this icy world? "

Su Lie frowned. He never liked Goguryeo people, but he didn't expect that the person who came this time would be a rude person.

With a soft snort, Su Lie said calmly: "I would disagree with what your envoy said.

It is true that you have a set of Goguryeo fishing, but if you say that you are number one?Hehe, I'm afraid that if we don't speak up in Tang Dynasty, your number one is self-proclaimed. "

"Oh? So, General Su doesn't approve? If it doesn't work, you can find out if you have a chance to try it. Back then, our Gaoguli Navy defeated your Central Plains Sui Navy. Could it be that you have forgotten it so soon?

Oh, that's right, according to General Su's age, I'm afraid you didn't remember anything during the war. "The Goguryeo envoy was dissatisfied.

When the generals of the Tang Dynasty heard the other party's sarcasm, they glared at each other, and Fang Yiai was about to stand up and draw his sword.

Next to her, Princess Gaoyang, who was wearing a military uniform and a fox fur cloak, held her husband down and said with a slight smile, "There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty called sitting in a well and looking at the sky. I wonder if the envoy of Goguryeo knows what it means?"

The other party saw that it was Princess Datang who spoke, and immediately said politely: "I don't know, please ask the princess for advice."

Princess Gao Yang nodded and said: "Well, I want to point out you.

I won't talk about the original allusion, I'm afraid you haven't learned anything too advanced, so let's talk about the general meaning.

How big is Goguryeo?How much sea area?

My Tang Dynasty is fertile and wild, and the eastern coast is almost all dependent on the sea to eat the sea. From the land of Liaodong to the south, through Hebei Road, the eastern part of Henan Road, Jiangnan Road, and directly down to Lingnan, etc., the coastline is as long as any state road. The coastline is enough to be the entire coastline of your Goguryeo.

I explain it this way, can you understand? "

The man was confused and said, "This is called a frog at the bottom of a well? But how do you know? Our Goguryeo does not need you to be weak in the Tang Dynasty. Who will measure the length of the coast? Who knows if it is true or not?"

Princess Gao Yang patted the handrail lightly and said: "Look, this is called the frog at the bottom of the well. It is you who sit in the well and watch the sky. Sitting in the well, you can see that the sky is only as big as the mouth of the well. After all, you are not considered a small country, but the world is not even as big as it is." I know, just thinking that your little place is number one in the world? How ridiculous.

Well, after today, if you have time, I will have someone take you to the coast of Datang to see the coastline or something. You don’t need a ruler to measure it. You can get a rough idea by running it with a boat. You can get a boat in Goguryeo for half a month. Back and forth, it may take us two months in Datang to sail from north to south. "

you

The envoy of Goguryeo blushed from embarrassment. No matter how stupid he was at this time, he could still hear that sitting in a well and watching the sky was a derogatory term. However, he was even more curious about whether the territory of the Tang Dynasty was really that big?Is the sea power really that strong?

In ancient times, because there were few complete maps of the world, many people were not very clear about the outline of the entire world.

At this time, Du He interjected: "Princess, the visitor is a guest, and we can't bully the noble envoy of Goguryeo.

How about this, since your envoy doesn't believe that our fishing ability is stronger than that of Goguryeo, then let's compare and take today's ice fishing as a bet? "

When the Goguryeo man heard it, he thought that someone from the Tang Dynasty was close to Goguryeo and spoke for him, so he frowned slightly, nodded and asked, "How to gamble?"

"It's very simple, just bet on whether we can catch fish from under the ice.

Before the noble envoy said that Goguryeo was fishing in the sea, etc., we in Tang Dynasty also fished on sea boats.

Today, your envoy said that Goguryeo has never been able to fish under the ice. If our Tang Dynasty can do it today, will it prove that fishing is better than Goguryeo? "

The man recalled, did he say that?Seems like.

"It's not fair. If you catch fish, you will surpass us. If you fail to catch fish, won't you be able to tell the difference?"

Du He laughed loudly and said: "Of course not. If today's fishing fails, our Tang Dynasty will automatically admit defeat and recognize Goguryeo as the number one fisherman in the world. , Your envoy dares to take a gamble?"

The envoys from the neighboring countries all agreed that it was interesting and that the bet was fair, and some even wanted to participate in the bet together.

The Goguryeo envoy was a little moved, so he asked: "Okay, the bet is over, let's talk about the bet."

Du He waved his hand and said: "Don't make any bets, just bet on the title of the number one in the world. After all, we have limited authority, betting on gold and silver is a bit clichéd, and if we bet on the ownership of the city, we only have a foothold in Fuyu City, and we can't bet on it." .

You and I are both representatives of great powers, so betting on one title is enough. "

"Okay, let's do it like this. I'd like to see how Datang can do things that even our Goguryeo can't do." The man said disdainfully.

The Khitan leader beside him added, "It's rare to have such an interesting gamble. Why don't you let go and make a big fortune, and let everyone participate in the excitement? Generals, let's make a price."

The leader of Mohe also booed and wanted to gamble, but General Su Lie interrupted: "Everyone, we all came here for this winter catch. We have a god in Tang Dynasty who calculated that fishing under the ice in winter for the people to celebrate the New Year will be helpful." national luck.

Especially the first fish caught in winter is called the head fish. Whoever eats it will enjoy good luck in the coming year.
