Chapter 128 Pioneers

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The land on the other side of the Zhu family does not belong to the State of Lu, but to an enclave of the State of Zhou in the State of Lu.  Although the land around the enclave belongs to the State of Lu, this small piece of land does not.  I don¡¯t know what they thought about it at the beginning, but there is such an enclave on the south bank.  But now the enclave has been sealed off, giving Xiao Ge the opportunity to establish a Xiao Kingdom.

    Xiao Ge also prepared for several months and finally came to his fiefdom to establish his own kingdom before spring plowing.

    The emperor, princes, ministers and officials.

    The emperor is the common master of the world, which is the emperor of the current Zhou Dynasty.  The princes are the kings of the country. They have noble status and can establish a country even as a baron.  The ministers and officials were all scholars. They served as retainers of the nobles and could have fiefs, but they could not establish a country.

    In the Spring and Autumn Period, the princes rebelled against the emperor, and the retainers rebelled against the princes.

    Although Xiao Ge is only a baron, he can still establish a country and start a business, unlike Yunyao who chooses to rely on the Lu State and become a shareholder of the Lu State.

    This is not good news for Yunyao, because she just wanted to plan the land on the south bank, why was it suddenly occupied by someone?

    ??In fact, it¡¯s okay, otherwise, after Yunyao has really planned and developed it, and it is occupied by others, the loss will be even greater.  So now that I have it, it¡¯s actually a good thing.  Otherwise, Yunyao had to tame potatoes and corn like the Indians, and when the colonists came, potatoes and corn would be in vain for outsiders.

    If Yunyao really develops the south bank and Xiao Ge comes again, there will be a war between the indigenous people and outsiders.

    "Quickly report your name." Xiao Ge glared at Yunyao and said, a murderous aura burst out from his body. The blood of the warrior who had just made a meritorious service on the battlefield has not dissipated yet.

    "I am Baron Bei'an, the head of the Zhu family, Yunyao." Yunyao introduced herself: "I have met Xiao Jun."

    "It turns out to be Zhu Nu from the North Bank." Since you are from the North Bank, it's okay. You must have taken advantage of the ice to come to the South Bank to have a look.

    Xiao Ge got out of the car and saluted Yunyao: "I have met Zhu Nu, and we will be neighbors across the river from now on. Please take care of her."

    "Both each other." Yunyao suppressed her helplessness and asked: "Xiao Jun, how many people did you bring?"

    "Twenty tribesmen, twenty retainers, and three hundred Dongyi captives." Xiao Ge said: "Establish a fief in the winter, open up wasteland next year, and strive to catch up with spring plowing. At least ten well fields must be opened."

    Yunyao heard Xiao Ge speak solemnly and knew that this small goal of the other party would consume the lives of many slaves.  Of the three hundred prisoners, I wonder how many of them can survive the cold winter.

    Reclaiming wasteland is the most tiring thing, especially if you don¡¯t have suitable farm tools.  There are only two or three months between now and spring plowing. Do you want to cultivate ten well fields in such a short period of time?  It will definitely take your life to cultivate it.

    You must know that the twenty minefields of the Yunyao family were cultivated one after another for ten years, which even made the head of the family, Zhu Le, die young from exhaustion.

    Xiao Ge also knew how difficult it was, so he prepared 300 Dongyi prisoners and buried them as soon as they died, so there was no need to feel bad at all.  If you feel sorry for someone, you just feel sorry for someone who is affecting the progress of land reclamation.

    Xiao Ge was looking for a suitable place to build a fief. He found that the land facing the Yunyao fief had a good location. It was close to the river and had easy access to water. It was better to establish a country here.

    "Go and pull the team over, we will set up camp here." Xiao Ge said neatly: "When I settle down, I will go to the north to visit the King of Lu."

    "If you need my help, please don't be polite." Yunyao said, "Xiao Jun, which country are you originally from?"

    "I am originally from the Zhou Dynasty."

    "Then let me introduce to you the scenery and climate on both sides of the Zhu River. Upstream is the Xue State, which is rich in minerals, and downstream is the Lu State. The mountain over there is Lu Mountain" Yunyao kept talking, but did not invite Xue Hou.  Go to dinner, after all, her plans were disrupted, and she really wasn't in the mood to treat her.

    Soon, three hundred prisoners of war arrived at the south bank under the supervision of ten warriors holding bronze spears.

    There were so many commotions on the south bank that the retainers and savages in the Yunyao fiefdom had heard it. They were all watching the excitement on the north bank. The four retainers even crossed the river directly to greet their future neighbors.

    The sight of three hundred prisoners of war was a sight to behold. It was such a cold winter that they were all wearing simple fur jackets. They were not clothes at all. They were just skins tied with twine. They were not processed at all and were very smelly.

    All the prisoners had disheveled hair and lowered their heads. They all had frostbite on their bodies, and their skin could not be told whether it was red or black.  Among them was a Dongyi man who was very tall. Everyone noticed him at a glance. He only wore thick wooden shackles around his neck. The other prisoners were only tied with ropes around their waists.

    "This Dongyi slave is very powerful, strong and strong, and has the power of a strong bull. At that timeIt took twenty soldiers swarming to catch him.  "Xiao Ge introduced: "I spent ten pieces of cloth in exchange for it. With him here, the land reclamation speed will definitely be faster.  "

    "If necessary, I have two cows in my fief that I can lend to you. After the land reclamation is completed, you only need to give me one and five pieces of cloth in return." Yunyao wants to rent out two cows, and the price of five pieces of cloth is not high.

    Xiao Ge didn't expect that the Zhu family still had this kind of business, but it would indeed be faster if there were cattle, but it depends on the situation: "If necessary, I will come to you." "I can't continue talking.  , and work needs to be arranged.¡±

    ???????????????????????????

    "Then I won't bother you. If you need help, you can come to me."

    Yunyao returned to the north bank with his retainers and watched them working on the south bank. He lamented: "It seems that we have to make other plans next year." The workshop cannot be built in the south, and the bees' nectar collection may also be affected, but there are no problems.  No matter how big it is, it¡¯s acceptable.

    A bonfire was lit on the opposite side, and all the prisoners of war were crowded together, like crowded penguins, relying on their body temperature to maintain their temperature. There was not even a place to shelter from the wind and rain. The retainers at least had tents, but the conditions were like this.  , completely inferior to the Zhu family who had already established a fief.

    The establishment of the Xiao Kingdom this winter is entirely supported by the rewards from Emperor Zhou. However, the Xiao family has a large population, with twenty people, plus twenty retainers, so it is optimistic to work together.

    As the king, Xiao Ge works personally, takes the lead, and is the backbone of the entire team.

    "It seems that your plan to occupy the south bank has failed." Hong Sang saw the regret on his disciple's face and knew that Yunyao was upset because the plan was ruined.  This clever disciple always looked like he was in control, and today he finally encountered something he couldn't solve.

    "I don't want to occupy Nan'an. I want to develop agricultural and sideline products with Nan'an characteristics." Yunyao explained plausibly: "But in general, my plan has not been affected. It just needs to be rearranged. Build a few more villages in the fief.  It¡¯s totally fine to live in a thatched cottage, we¡¯ll do it when the weather gets warmer.¡±

    Yunyao can wait, but Xiao Guo on the south bank cannot wait. They have already started digging ice to get water, mixing mud and burning ashes, and preparing building materials.  The weather is so cold that if we don¡¯t build houses first, people will definitely freeze to death.
