I do research in ancient times

"Yechao people are so enthusiastic!"

Looking at the excited crowd below, Nada said happily.

"We Tian Jiangmen are in Xihu, and we are never taken seriously. Any nading (team leader) will scold us and order us at will. If we don't obey, we will be whipped."

"The artisans are really respected here."

"Don't even think about it!"

Holland sneered.

"This is not welcoming us. This is clearly welcoming Mr. Ning to go home. We are just passing it along."

"That's different."

Nada said seriously.

"Mr. Ning is a great master craftsman. In terms of ability, Nada is incomparable, but everyone's status is the same. Respecting a master craftsman is respecting a craftsman. Those who are capable will receive preferential treatment. This is Nada's dream place!"

Helan didn't quite understand why Nada was excited.In his opinion, the Tianjiang people are a bunch of stubborn people, who abide by the rules of their ancestors and will not let go, and from time to time they take the honor of dying in the furnace.

But Nada...is the first craftsman to leave the Hu Department. Before he got off the boat, he was full of praise for the place. Could it be that he really saw something?

"Oh, then you have to learn Yechao dialect well."

Helan muttered under his breath.

"Otherwise, you don't understand what they say, why do you stay here?"

"Learn and learn, what are you afraid of!"

Nada slapped his thigh.

"Don't look down on Tian Jiang, I will definitely gain a foothold here, just wait and see!"

When the two were quarreling, the cattle, sheep and cargo on the ship had almost been unloaded, and the sailors began to disembark one by one.

Ning Fei stood on the pier early in the morning, met with everyone, and after talking about the old days, he has been busy handling the goods brought back from Donghu Sanbu.

Pink precious salt, a large number of cattle and sheep, and more than a dozen packages of wool samples.

The salt was sent to the big food room managed by Aunt Niu, the cattle and sheep were handed over to the farm in charge of Pinghua, and the wool samples were taken directly to the warehouse of the weaving workshop, which made Pinghua hit the back of her head with her feet.

But even so, there was a rare smile on the girl's face.Today more than one person listened to her humming a ditty, the melody was melodious, with a hint of Hu Feng.

"Jizi is back, sister is really happy, I've never seen her like this before."

Hasler was feeling emotional when he saw a few young boys suddenly squeezed in front of him, the first one rubbed his hands, and asked cautiously.

"Brother Ha, why didn't our boss come back, what happened?"

Hassler was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that the "boss" mentioned by these young boys was the kid Clay who had been by Mozi's side before.

He thought about it.

"Clay has found his family, and his home is where the moment drifted past this time."

"There are many mountains between us and us, and we have to walk by sea to get there. Clay is now living with his grandfather, living in his own hometown, and won't be back for a while."

"what?!"

Several young boys showed disappointment, but they thought it was a good thing that the boss could find his relatives, so they hesitated for a long while and didn't know how to answer them.

According to Brother Ha, the boss's home is very far away, and he has to go through the sea. Wouldn't it be difficult to come back when he goes back?

The half-grown boy already has the concept of parting, not to mention the "a moment and a half" in Hassler's words, which means it is basically impossible.

But they still didn't give up, so they asked in a low voice.

"But didn't Brother Jizi come back? That means we can still take the boat... If we also learn to drive a big boat in the future, can we go to see the boss?"

Those sailors sailed just now, but they could all see clearly.Such a big wooden boat can move by itself without paddling, but what a magical thing!

Not to mention that you can go to the sea... The sea is said to be a big bubble bigger than Jiuling Lake and Wuzhi River. It has everything in it, which is amazing!

Really want to see it!

"It should be... okay."

Hearing their question, Hasler scratched the back of his head hesitantly.

"Just now I heard from Juzi that we will build a shipyard and a sailor school. In the future, we will also have our own big ships. The best sailors can go on the big sailboats and carry goods in the sea to do business."

"It's just that you need the best sailors. To be a sailor, you have to learn a lot of things. If you fail the exam and play mischievous things in the school, there is no chance."

Hearing what he said, the backs of the children suddenly tightened.

They are all mischievous in the school, and the scum with the lowest grades. When they heard that they can't sail a big boat if they don't study well, the youngsters are a little panicked.

Being a sailor is awesome!Especially the one at the helm, with a single order, several large masts and sails were furled together, just like the general commanding the battle formation.

They will never have the chance to be generals in this life, but they can still work hard, for the big brother, for the big ship, for the sea, fight!

What they don't know is that those Donghu boatmen who they thought were "spirited and well-informed" are now being hit by everything in Jiuling Lake so that they can't move. calm.

For example, Helan, the young patriarch of the Baike tribe, the hawk on Hanhai Lake, was a little dizzy when he got off the boat.

He didn't pay attention when he was on the boat, but when he got off the boat, he realized that the roads in Mr. Ning's place were so neat and tidy!

The wharf where the big ship is moored is not made of wood, but gray rock, which is neatly cut, and there is no gap between joints, and it is completely different from their Donghu Sanbu.

This, this, this... Why is this land so flat that there is not even a pit, and the hoofs of cattle and sheep do not have a speck of dust. Is this road oiled? !

Just forget about the pier, after all, the pier is a facade, and it is not too much to decorate it with style.

But walking further inside, Helan realized that he really thought too much.

It turned out that all the roads in the city were made of the same stone material, not to mention smooth, and many small stones were inlaid on it for decoration. I don't know how much work the stonemasons spent.

Mr. Ning said before that he was a businessman, and Helan thought he was just a traveler, relying on a small boat to sell goods.

But looking at it now, this motherfucker is not a small household, this is clearly the lord of a city, and he is also an extremely wealthy lord of the city!

He, Helan, has also been to some big Hubu cities.As the king's court, Ximo Zhihai can be regarded as the most prosperous place in the grassland, but there is only a stone road in front of the palace, and the entire city is paved with stones like this, even if it is the king's court. can't do it!

Is this the prosperity of the industry?

"It's not the same in the industry."

Linka on the side suddenly said.

"I used to come to Yechao when I was traveling with a boat. The most prosperous and prosperous place is Qijiang City in Nanjun, and there is no road like Jiuling Lake."

Helan was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that he had accidentally expressed the question in his heart.

It's okay to say it, anyway, he speaks Amilei, and not many people around him can understand it, and no one knows if he makes a fool of himself.

The chatterbox opened, and he simply continued to ask.

"Brother Linka, tell me, what does the most prosperous Qijiang City look like?"

Linka glanced at him.

"Ye Chaoren's boat is very big, a circle bigger than Nanshi's, and it is a big boat that can go into the sea."

"They guard the two estuaries of the Nanjiang River and the Qingjiang River. Boats entering and leaving the city have to pay tolls. There are inns and warehouses everywhere in the city. There are many merchants and it is very prosperous."

Having said that, he paused, his gaze stopped at the farmland in the distance.

There was no one there, water dragons were running slowly, and the water from the Wuzhi River was poured into the irrigation canal continuously. The seedlings in the field grew extremely strong, and it was expected to be a bumper harvest year.

"There are not so many lands in Qijiang City. People there are arrogant and look down on foreign boat passengers."

"Oh," Helan blinked, and was about to say something, when the scenery in front of him changed, and Mr. Ning led them up a high slope.

"This is the dormitory area of ​​our port."

Standing in front of a gate, Ning Juzi smiled and explained to the guests who came from afar.

"It was supposed to entertain everyone to stay in the inn, but our port has not been opened, and no outsiders come in every day, and the inn has not started construction yet."

"Fortunately, the dormitory for the dock workers has been completed. The houses are all new, and there are no people living in them. It's just a place for everyone. Don't dislike the shabby houses."

Although they didn't know what a "dormitory" was, everyone hurriedly expressed their thanks in unison.

People who run boats spend more than half of the year floating on the water, and they sleep on the board of the boat countless times, so they are very satisfied to live in a yurt.

Unexpectedly, when they really entered the yard, everyone almost stared out of their eye sockets in fright.

I saw a small two-story room standing neatly in front of me. The stairs were on the side, connected by a platform inlaid with iron railings. There was a door opened a few meters away. There were two wooden windows next to the door. closed.

"This... is this really for us to live in?"

asked a young sailor, stammering.

He spoke in Amilei, and Ning Fei couldn't understand, so he turned to Helan and Linka.

"Is there any request?"

"No... not."

Helan swallowed, trying not to look so ignorant.

"He...he just asked, how do we live?"

"Oh."

Ning Fei nodded.

"The design of the dormitory is an eight-person room, but it is actually a temporary place for people working on the dock to rest temporarily."

"You can use this row of houses. It doesn't matter how many people live there. You can assign the combination yourself. I'll send someone to bring the keys and name cards later."

"The dining room in the city will provide three meals a day, which are collected at Maoshi, noon and Youshi, with a name card."

"Everyone has worked hard these days. There are many new gadgets in Jiuling City. You can browse around at will. After you recover, Mr. Feng will invite everyone to Ding'an City to play."

After arranging the key points, Ning Fei handed over the hospitality work to Hasler.

With the previous experience in agricultural science classes, Hassler is already familiar with the role of team leader, and soon arranged the Donghu guests on the reverse sailing boat to the dormitory.

It is said that it is a dormitory, but it is actually two four-person rooms sharing a bathroom. Hassler also introduced the usage of the toilet in detail, and everyone was amazed.

"Then let's tidy up first, and I'll come over when it's time for dinner, and take everyone to the dining room to identify the door."

Hasler's Tulun language is stiff and weird, and he also has a strange border town accent, which has obviously been unfamiliar for a long time.

Fortunately, everyone could still understand, thanked him with a smile, and sent him out of the courtyard.

Standing in the courtyard, Helan let out a long sigh of relief, looking at the neat two-story building in front of him, his face was full of emotion.

"Damn, Mr. Ning Xiao is too polite, do you still dislike living in this house?"

As he spoke, he walked to the window and opened the window panel casually, preparing to cool the room where he and Lin Ka lived.

Linka in the house was hurt by the sudden light, and instinctively blocked it with his arms.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw Helan in front of the window with a dumbfounded expression, his mouth open enough to hold his own fist, and staring at him in astonishment.

"what happened to you?"

Uncle Linka frowned.

Although Helan is the head of the young patriarch, Uncle Linka also looks down on his frizzy temperament.

The most important thing to do well is to be steady, can you steer the boat well if you are always surprised? !

"no……"

Helan's voice was ethereal.

"Brother Linka, you...you didn't see...?"

He made up his mind, and it took him a long time to stammer and speak authentically.

"This window panel... there is another layer inside! It's shiny... what the hell is this?!"
