Quick Wear: Lu Ming She Has Many Children and Blessings

Some pedestrians even went out wrapped in furs, their bodies were strong and powerful, exuding a sturdy aura. The transactions on the street were also very active, and barter became the main way of transaction. Silver and money did not have strong purchasing power here.

After entering the city, Zhao Changshi immediately ordered his men to inquire about the news, and after discovering that there was no government office here, he began to take over Yicheng without hesitation.

With his excellent organizational skills, the takeover of Yicheng was carried out quickly and orderly. Then, he began to rectify Yicheng, officials were quickly promoted, and the whole city began to operate in an orderly manner.

To the west of Yizhou City is the vast sea, which is rich in seafood. However, due to its geographical location, the land here is not fertile and the harvest of crops is limited.

In the past, only fishermen on the coast would occasionally catch some seafood to try, but now it has become Luming’s precious wealth.

The kelp here is a good remedy for treating goiter, as Lu Ming mentioned. So after tidying up Yizhou City, he began to collect kelp in large quantities, and dry and store it.

The craftsmen he brought also began to carry out comprehensive renovations on Yizhou City, striving to make the city shine with new splendor.

Lu Ming didn't feel bad at all, mainly because she was rich. She didn't expect that the mirrors she had hoarded before would come in handy at this moment. She would sell a few more when she ran out of money.

For a time, Yizhou City developed very well.

Here, after a long journey, the team finally arrived at Liangzhou City, which is closest to Xizhou.

This time, they urgently needed to go into the city to replenish supplies, not only the food consumed during this period, but also the purchase of winter clothes, herbs, camels and other necessities.

Before they reached the city gate, the governor of Liangzhou personally led his troops to meet them.

He took over the purchasing task without saying a word and provided very attentive service. He even brought several court doctors with him, fearing that Prince An might have an accident while under his jurisdiction.

The Xizhou land that has been conquered now is long and narrow, bordering the Qilian Mountains with perennial snow to the north and the southern barbarian land to the south.

After the snow on the Qilian Mountains melted, a flat and narrow plain was formed, so this place became the throat of the Zhou State and the small countries in the west.

Occupying this place will allow you to guard the portal.

However, unfortunately, the land of Xizhou was not completely controlled by the Zhou Kingdom, but a large part of it was controlled by the barbarians.

As one of the four border cities, Liangzhou is a city with an important geographical location, a large scale and the largest population.

The Governor of Liangzhou has things, and Lu Ming has money.

Of course, there are also some unsatisfactory aspects here - the price of food is twice that of the capital.

In comparison, the beef and mutton here are extremely cheap and available in large quantities.

Two days later, the group set out on their journey again, and this time they would no longer have a city to stop and rest.

The journey was indeed smooth at the beginning, but it became increasingly difficult afterwards.

After leaving Liangzhou, there is still an endless oasis before our eyes.

As the team continued to move forward, the scenery gradually became more desolate. The Gobi Desert began to appear, with yellow sand flying all over the sky and only sparse bushes dotted in between.

Water resources are becoming increasingly scarce, and people have to rely on a large amount of manpower to carry clean water.

After five days of arduous march through the desert, some voices of hesitation began to emerge among the team.

Some people can't help but wonder: "Can we still reach Xizhou?"

Another voice replied, "I heard from the master that it will take another month."

Hearing this answer, everyone couldn't help but feel a little desperate: "It will take so long?"

......

In the middle of the convoy, Lu Ming was sitting on a white camel he had just picked up, wearing a felt hat that covered his head and face completely.

She rose and fell with the rhythm of the camel's march, and turned to ask the old guide beside her: "Is there a shortcut?"

This guide was introduced by the governor of Liangzhou. Because Xizhou had been ruled by the barbarians for nearly a decade, the Zhou people had not set foot on this land for a long time. They could only rely on this experienced old guide on this trip.

Unfortunately, due to the passage of time, the map has become outdated, and the mountains and rivers in many places have undergone tremendous changes.

The old guide shook his head helplessly: "This map is too old. After so many years, many landforms have changed. I can only guarantee that I can lead you out safely."

Ning Changshi, who was serving Prince An, was extremely anxious. It was almost October now. If they didn't speed up, it would become even more difficult to walk when the weather got colder.

Lu Ming gritted his teeth and said resolutely: "With your words, I feel relieved. I will show the way and you will be responsible for redrawing the map."

Although this proposal sounded a bit unreliable, surprisingly, no one around objected.

After all, they were all Lu Ming's confidants and believed in her words without a doubt.

Although the guide was just an old man who was paid to do his job, he didn't have much energy to object.

After three months of brainwashing, the other soldiers' worship of Lu Ming almost reached a blind level. It is no exaggeration to say that they are brain-dead fans.

If Lu Ming really leads this group of people to the destination this time, he might even be deified by then.

Luming does not have the ability to recognize the road, but Fubao does.

The road that Fubao pointed out was indeed easy to walk on. You could see a water source every two or three days, which was very magical.

After replenishing their water supply for the last time, they finally reached their destination.

The next day, a city built of loess stood in the desert, coming into view of everyone.

Compared with the towering city walls of Liangzhou, this city is simply a child's play. The city walls are actually just roughly piled up with loess, and the height is probably less than half a meter, which can be easily crossed in one step.

That's it?

I guess it can't prevent anything.

Can this really be called a city?

The people who followed did not notice anything wrong. The moment they saw the city, they showed excitement on their faces.

After all, we have finally arrived at our destination and can temporarily put aside our fatigue and take a short rest.

However, Lu Ming and Ning Changshi stood in front of the half-meter-high city wall, silent.

This is not a city at all, it is clearly an ancient relic, right?

In addition, what makes Lu Ming even more worried is that although this is the location of Xizhou City, the vegetation here is pitifully sparse.

It is obvious that Xizhou is short of water, very short of water!

It is not an easy thing to have an oasis in this barren desert. Although Lu Ming is anxious, she also knows that everything needs to be done step by step. If Xizhou is really a place with fertile land, it would not be her turn to come.

Ning Changshi quickly began to negotiate with the soldiers guarding the city, and soon the Protector General Wang Li was invited over.
