I handed in the sand sculpture through the book system

Wang Zhi looked at the keel carefully, and finally moved slowly, carefully avoiding the treasures and cultural relics scattered all over the place, and bent down to pick up the strangely large tortoise shell.First shake off the dust gently in the air, and then stroke repeatedly through the gloves.

After looking at it several times, Wang Zhi finally came to a decision—the scattered and messy cracks on the tortoise shell are by no means natural traces, and the remaining bone spurs after carving with a knife and pen can be clearly observed from the edge of the cracks.If you stare carefully along the light in the air, you can still see the golden light flashing through the cracks: the words engraved on this tortoise shell were once smeared with gold powder, and even after thousands of years, you can see the remaining gold. color...

Wang Zhi couldn't help tightening his fingers slightly—judging from the texture of the oracle bone and the fineness of the gold powder in the cracks, the things recorded on this tortoise shell must be extremely important, and it may even be some important key document in ancient times. There will be such a solemn offering... But he carefully identified along the cracks, but it was difficult to find out the clues anyway.

Of course this is not surprising.The so-called specialization in the art field, plus the oracle bone inscriptions are notoriously remote and difficult in archaeology, and idlers should not get close to them. In view of the incomplete and scarce existing materials, even the top oracle bone inscription experts dare not make random guarantees about the text.But Wang Zhi has never set foot in it for a long time, and his understanding of this thing is limited to college elective courses—and a few lectures with his tutor for free.

But with such a little common sense, Wang Zhi subconsciously murmured.Although he doesn't know much about oracle bone inscriptions, he has seen pigs running before eating pork, and he generally knows a little about the frame structure and arrangement rules of this kind of original characters, but no matter what the rules are, it seems to be consistent with this oracle bone. The inscriptions on the oracle bone are out of place; even frankly speaking, the traces and cracks on the oracle bone are scattered and messy, not so much the engraved characters, but more like the faces of the cake embryos poked with the tip of a knife...

Of course, the existing materials of oracle bone inscriptions are extremely scarce. In addition, the ancient writing system and recording methods are not yet developed, so it is common to not follow the rules when inscriptions.Wang Zhi rubbed the oracle bone for a while, but after all, he didn't think too much about it. He just thought that those who engage in archaeology are really lucky. Maybe with this oracle bone, they can reform the ancient writing system, and at least they can keep academic funding for more than ten years... …

He took out a sample bag from his waist, put the oracle bones in and sealed it carefully, preparing to put in the next batch of exchange materials for the Academy of History to receive as a whole.

Under the cover of the vigorous and massive house raiding activities in Chang'an City, Mu Chen and others quickly completed the preliminary process of land distribution, and quietly spread the news of the land distribution to the entire army.Although many people's expressions changed abruptly and even burst into tears because of the shocking action during the process, the whole situation was finally under control.

Wait for the last batch of soldiers to be notified.Mu Chen and others retreated to the warehouse at the foot of the city wall, and recruited troops responsible for raiding the suburban manors, and inquired carefully about the supplies - land distribution is not simply a piece of land. Farm tools, livestock, seeds, and even water conservancy facilities must be prepared together, otherwise the so-called "land to the tiller" is just empty talk.

Fortunately, at the foot of the emperor in Chang'an City, the rich and wealthy accumulated, and because it had not been developed for a long time, it was not until the early Tang Dynasty that the land was exhausted and the land load was seriously insufficient, so that the emperor had to live in the tragedy of Luoyang.Although the greed and shamelessness of rich and powerful dudes are purely dung-making machines, Qiu Tian Wen She is still a good hand under the influence of his ears and eyes, so all the land occupied in the suburbs is fertile land in the suburbs, and people are specially hired to take care of it. The best land available in the Middle Ages.Such precise planning and hands-on practice just facilitated the comfort of the traversers, and it was of great benefit to the farming after distribution.

And the land has everything, and the rest of the seeds, agricultural tools, etc. are all in the warehouses of the rich and powerful, and all of them are carried by trucks.The inspectors dispatched abroad made a copy in the manor in the outskirts, and they have already prepared all the materials needed on the list. As for the rations for the spring famine and the cloth and silk blankets to keep out the cold, they are piled up like a mountain. , Impossible to measure.The aristocratic families of the Northern Dynasties have occupied the Central Plains for nearly a hundred years, and the accumulated wealth is really inconceivable-if you consider the meager productivity in the Middle Ages, then the level of accumulation is simply amazing.

Of course, this miser-like accumulation method has produced another unexpected consequence: due to the extremely primitive storage technology in the Middle Ages, a large amount of accumulation in such a closed environment will inevitably cause corruption.When the warehouse was opened, the stench of organic matter eroded by fungi almost stumped the soldiers who came to search.After putting on a filter mask and checking carefully, they realized that the problem of rot was bigger than they imagined—it was a trivial matter for rotten cloth and the like, but the key was that many grains had been contaminated with mold, and they were exposed to mold in the dark and heavy soil. A dangerous dark yellow appeared in the green skin.

The soldiers brought over samples of rotten grains. Xiang Liang just looked up and down. After all, he was someone who had been exposed to toxicology during training, so he immediately recognized this famous thing:

"Aflatoxin." He frowned: "How much?"

"There are quite a few." The soldier reported: "We found them in a few manors by the Wei River. Because of the humidity and darkness, basically the grains next to the soil layer were contaminated with this kind of thing, and the smell was quite unpleasant."

Xiang Liang squinted his eyes: Even in modern times, more than a thousand years later, aflatoxin is a natural toxin that is known to be distasteful in food safety, not only because of its wide distribution, but also because of its highly contagious nature.According to the formal food safety handling process, since the number of molds is already so large, I am afraid that the whole warehouse of grain will have to be burned and discarded...

Of course, in ancient times, this might have been regarded as extravagance. Even the profligate rich and rich in Chang'an City would definitely not be so extravagant.

Sure enough, the reporting soldiers hesitated for a moment, then mentioned the news they had questioned from the manor steward:

"According to the account of the housekeeper in the manor, the nobles have tricky tastes, and rice noodles with a slightly musty smell are not allowed to be imported. So they carefully select and supply fresh food as much as possible..."

Xiang Liang snorted, but his tone was ironic:

"Aflatoxin is pervasive. Since the environment is already moldy and rotten like that, then [-]% of the places that should be polluted have already been polluted. Eating this kind of thing for a long time, no wonder the average life expectancy can be stretched to such an extent." He scoffed. : "But it's ridiculous to say, to be able to get aflatoxin in this day and age, it really has to be such a wealthy and noble family who searched for nothing, and ordinary people don't have this blessing..."

The people at the bottom of the middle ages were often struggling on the verge of starvation, so there was no way to talk about food reserves, and of course they had nothing to do with aflatoxin.Mu Chen pulled his lips subconsciously, and decided to cheer Xiang Liang up.But he hadn't figured out the cleverness that should be shaken, and his heart suddenly jumped, and he remembered a terrible event:

In the month at the beginning of the time travel, he was forced to stay in the palace of the Southern Dynasty and enjoyed the special diet of the nobility in the Middle Ages for dozens of days!

If there is really aflatoxin contamination, can I escape?

As a result, his lips froze halfway, and even his face changed slightly—thanks to decades of vigorous publicity on food safety, he is very clear about the reputation of aflatoxin!

Xiang Liang caught a glimpse of the strangeness on Mu Chen's face, and after thinking about it for a while, he probably understood what this man was worried about.So after a little thought, he quickly comforted:

"It doesn't matter, it's not a big problem to take a small amount. At most, let the doctor prescribe some medicine for cleaning up." He tried to put it lightly: "Besides, look at the nobles of the Southern Dynasties from birth to death. It’s aflatoxin for dinner every day, no, it’s no big deal…” Seven

Having said that, Xiang Liang paused, feeling a little muttered in his heart.

He hesitated involuntarily, but he thought of a small incident in Jiankang - after the palace change, they controlled the emperor and put all the officials under house arrest, and basically turned against the Southern Dynasty, in order to prevent these senior officials from being irritated Sudden sudden death after being too old, causing endless violence, the crossing team even made a special trip to give them a simple physical examination.The results are rough, but generally not unexpected. It is basically some dental disease, rheumatoid arthritis, common in the Middle Ages, plus parasitic diseases that everyone must have...

But now that I think about it, although the results of the investigation are full of tricks, there are basically no signs of aflatoxin poisoning in the physiological indicators?

Xiang Liang frowned: The south is more humid and hotter than the north. It stands to reason that the distribution of Aspergillus flavus should be much denser. How could there be such a difference?

At three o'clock in the evening of the same day, King Qi, who had just been ordered to lead the defense inside and outside Chang'an City, the prime minister's many domestic secrets, the power to take care of the prime minister, the minister's order, and the general Baikui, suddenly issued an edict.

This order is quite simple. It requires the garrison troops outside the city to change their defenses, and the frontier troops transferred to the capital by King Qi will take over the defense, and announce a curfew inside and outside Chang'an. call.

After the order was promulgated, there was no surprise at all—the palace change had been going on for a day and a night, and even the low-ranking officials knew that there had been a huge change in the palace. Other than that, they didn't dare to take any action.Of course, a few prominent ministers are well-informed and capable, and they have a keen understanding of the situation: they carefully calculated King Qi's manpower and material resources in Beijing, and finally came to a simple conclusion - with the current manpower of King Qi's mansion, it is impossible to do anything. It is easy to launch a surprise attack on the palace change; but after the palace change, there will be turmoil, and it is impossible to control the entire capital. As long as it takes a little longer, it will inevitably be stretched.

In this way, the transfer of the frontier army to change the defense can be completely explained: the imperial guards are the soldiers of the emperor after all, even if they can be bribed, they may not be at ease when they are used.However, King Qi gained power with his military achievements back then, and most of the frontier generals had subordinates, so of course he was much more at ease when using them.

However, this kind of reassurance obviously also hides unknown risks.The news that the frontier army entered the city to change defenses spread a little bit, and there were ripples of commotion in the Chang'an deep house compound, and even some ulterior discussions...

[Drop the frontier army in?When Dong Zhuo entered Beijing and died in the later Han Dynasty, don't you know what a lesson from the past is? !absurd! 】

[It's not like that.After all, King Qi has outstanding military achievements, so it is not a big problem to suppress the frontier army.However, the Bianjun soldiers are as poor and brutal as tigers, so it is easy to invite them, but it will be troublesome to send them away...]

[What's the trouble?Didn't Prince Qi's Mansion already send out some kind of 'search team' to dig up treasures and ransack homes all over the city, searching for property? !With so many treasures, why worry about not being able to feed your men? !But this goddamned old slave who has not changed his village spirit for more than ten years, actually dares to move on the heads of celebrities and famous families. He is really disheveled!Being so violent and reckless, insulting gentleness, is just another Dong Zhuo, I'm waiting for his end! 】

【You don't have to be so angry, we haven't caught it anyway... But your words are also reasonable, presumably King Qi ransacked the city regardless of his face, just to feed the wolves, tigers and leopards he invited.But, this kind of insatiable thing may not be enough to be satisfied in this way. 】

【—What do you mean, sir? 】

[King Qi's military exploits are outstanding, indeed.But the army on this side may not be his own private soldiers, they are full of greedy generals.Hehe, I don’t need to do anything, I just need someone to challenge me a bit...]
