Section 225 New Town Planning

With the working habits of barbarians, it is impossible to completely remove all the impurities in the hay. There will always be a few small stones and small wooden sticks, and it will not be called a small object. If one, two xanthium ears, ghost needles, nettle seeds and other things are mixed into the soft grass ball, the unique sour feeling can make you have strong suspicion of people during the bleeding and sphincter twitching.

The solution for civilians is simpler: Most of them use two-finger-width wooden pieces, round the two ends, polish them smoothly with rough sand, and use scratches to remove dirt. Some people pick up smooth and round stones from the wild, the size must be appropriate, and the volume is best for adult fists. Whether it is stones or wood pieces, they must be rinsed after use so that they can be used next time.

The importance of these things is self-evident. All savages will leave a special place at home for placement. So don’t be surprised to see a pile of stones in someone’s home, and don’t follow your unique logic to think that he is a strange stone lover with a collector.

When he came out of the cottage, Tianhao couldn't help but look up at the sky and sighed with a refreshing sigh.

It has been several years, and for the first time, he felt like he was returning to the civilized era.

Just like when I was a teenager, the two of them had the experience of holding hands and hugging each other, but were forced to separate for various reasons. Many years later, she got old and I got old, and each of them had a group of children and grandchildren. However, she appeared in front of me on a sunny afternoon and kissed my wrinkled cheek gently.

The two things are incompatible, but the dispersal of thoughts is so strong that they are both aftertaste and intoxicating in memory.

It is actually not difficult to make this kind of paper, and the output is also satisfying Tianhao. He asked Wu Qi to create a new batch of yellow paper and distribute it to the commanders and officials with more than a thousand people in Panshi City.

This is a trial product.

Tianhao alone feels comfortable and convenient, and more people must participate in the experience. For barbarians, toilet paper is a new thing.

Two days later, everyone's experience came back.

Most of the Cow people, led by the old priest and Yonggang, said it was easy to use. Especially the old priest, perhaps when people reach a certain age, they will transform their thinking and develop indescribable aspects. He actually described the process of wiping their butts in toilet paper "like gently stroking the fat and smooth skin of a young girl..." Everyone, including Tianhao, felt a chill when they heard it.

The pigs, such as black teeth, broken teeth, and red nose, had a bad feeling about toilet paper. They all said that this thing was unreliable. Although the stacking thickness reached four layers, the toilet paper still could not resist the strength of their strong fingers. They were either pierced or torn. In short, the process was extremely dirty and the experience was extremely uncomfortable. It was better to use the old methods of the past, stones and wood chips.

Tianhao didn't comment on this. Pig man is an exception, so don't worry, take it slowly.

Tianfeng didn't understand why his brother paid so much attention to toilet paper and invested so much energy. He asked in confusion: "Three, this thing cannot be eaten or worn, why do you have to spend so much effort to tinker with it?"

Tianhao's face was filled with a mysterious smile: "It can change the world. From the perspective of high-end civilization, it can become the best alternative to animal skin rolls."

Tianfeng agreed with this statement very much. He nodded and agreed: "You are right. With paper, we can indeed write without using animal skins. But toilet paper... is it necessary to solve the problem of wiping the butt?"

Tianhao's expression was unfathomable: "Toilet paper can help us exchange a lot of things. Food, horses, cotton... everything is available."

Tianfeng expressed doubts about this: "How is this possible? Third brother, are you kidding?"

Tianhao did not explain this.

Many things are not finalized by words. When the facts come, all doubts and speculations will be self-defeating.

...

When Yuan Kai rushed from the fishing village to Panshi City, it was already dark.

The lord's mansion follows the architectural style of the civilization era. It is not difficult to build a three-story building. Large blocks of foundation stones are piled up to be rough and heavy, without any decoration or detailed depictions such as sculptures. However, no matter how you look at it from any angle, it gives people a strong sense of majesty.

The room was very spacious. Ayi and two maids were busy by the fire pit, making dinner. Her abdomen was bulging. Yuankai was a person who came here. You can tell that she was at least three months pregnant. She couldn't help but turn her gaze to Tianhao, who was sitting opposite him, and asked with a smile: "In a few more months, Ayi should have a child?"

Tianhao nodded slightly with a smile.

This child was pregnant with the pig race before the full war. Ayi was probably the kind of woman with a high chance of conception. Tianhao himself did not expect the second child to come so quickly. Although he was a little surprised, he welcomed the child who was about to come to the world.

The Prison Niu ran to Yuan Kai, first made a face at him, then put his feet together, and saluted him. Children are like this. People think that dogs don’t love each other and are naughty and naughty. He has a natural sense of fear of his father. He usually makes trouble, but Tianhao doesn’t care about it as long as he doesn’t make a fuss. However, in serious and formal occasions, he must restrain himself. According to seniority, the Prison Niu has to call Yuan Kai “Uncle”. Yuan Kai likes this child very much. Every time he returns from the fishing village, he will bring him some gifts.

Take out a large white conch from the carry-on bag, hand it over, and touch the head of the ox with a smile: "Take it and play!"

Ayi knew that today's dinner was very important, so she and her maid started to be busy since noon. Seeing that the time was almost over, the women began to serve various exquisite dishes on the table, putting bowls and chopsticks in front of Tianhao and Yuankai, pouring wine... After all, Ayi smiled and owed to Yuankai, turned around and walked to Tianhao, leaned over and kissed him gently, and the latter gently pressed the back of her hand. Ayi turned around and walked out of the room with the imperial cow, and took the door with her.

Tianhao picked up the wine glass and said seriously: "To those who died in the war."

This is a toast commonly used by the barbarians in the north at banquets. The dead here specifically refer to barbarians, not including other races in the south of the mainland. The status of the dead is to some extent equal to that of the ancestors, and even more important than the gods.

Yuan Kai quickly picked up the cup, raised the cup and toasted each other across the air, and drank it all in one go.

Tianhao picked up the chopsticks, lit the chicken placed in a large basin in the middle of the dining table, and smiled and said, "This is Ayi's craftsmanship, it tastes very good, try it while it's hot."

Steamed chicken butter is a recipe in the civilization era. As long as the heat and temperature are maintained, the steamed chicken tastes smooth and has a strong sweet fragrance. In Tianhao's familiar civilization history, the US Secretary of State highly appreciated this dish. (Kissinger Chicken.)

Sweetness, a unique fragrance of dairy products, are two flavors that are considered extremely precious by the northern barbarians and full of happiness. In the evolution of human taste buds, they will probably never forget the special existence retained from the ancestors. Yuan Kai is no exception. He praised the chicken with a strong buttery aroma and killed a whole piece like a wind blowing away the clouds.

Barbarians have a big appetite. Under normal circumstances, at least four chickens will be used at banquets for entertaining guests, which is just the consumption of a dish.

Tianhao patiently watched Yuan Kai finish eating a chicken, and was extremely reluctant to lick his fingers. He smiled and asked, "What do sailors have to say about that new ship? Let's hear it."

Yuan Kai, who had been rushing, had long been hungry. He knew that Tianhao never valued rules in such occasions, so he cut off a large piece of barbecue with a knife, picked up a steamed bun from the basket next to him, broke it apart, stuffed the barbecue into the steamed bun in the sauce, opened his mouth and took a big bite, mixed with the delicious food and exclaimed: "It's amazing, everyone said it was the best boat in the world."

The large-scale high-intensity mass-produced fishing boat work has ended, and the craftsmen's understanding and experience of ships have reached an unprecedented level. Compared with the drawings left by Tianhao before, many technical difficulties have been overcome one by one. On the basis of further refining the watertight cabin and the counterweight in the ship, people finally built the first Galen sailing ship that can sail normally.

The dock sent news four days ago, and Tianhao was also planning a new plan, so he sent someone to recall Yuan Kai.

"They stayed at sea for four days, which is the longest sailing record so far. The cabin of this kind of ship is very large and can hold a lot of things. The stability is very good when it was launched and tried. All the sailors on the ship promised that they would not have any accidents like the previous few times. Actually, I was also betting, so I gave them enough food and water to choose their own routes and go back and forth along the coast."

Pride and pride appeared on Yuan Kai's face. He chewed the steamed buns with excitement in his eyes: "Sir, we can go further than before, we can leave the mainland and go elsewhere. I have always kept the chart you gave me, and we can cross this sea area to reach those islands. This is not a dream, we have really done it!"

Tianhao kept smiling, and he encouraged Yuankai to do all the efforts he had made for this: "Your name will be carved on the stone tablet, and will be passed down forever like ancestors and heroes."

This sentence was really surprising. Yuan Kai couldn't help but open his mouth, and half a piece of steamed bun in his hand that had not been eaten yet fell on the table. He looked at Tianhao with excited and incredible eyes and asked tremblingly: "...This... are you saying true?"

Tianhao nodded affirmatively: "I will not forget everything you have done for this, and will never."

A hot stream instantly penetrated Yuan Kai's whole body. He felt a lot of indescribable things flashing in his mind and crowding. It was an unprecedented force. He didn't know what adrenaline was, but he just couldn't help but want to cheer, want to leave the chair, run and whistle in the wildest posture.

"I will build more boats, I... I want to fish all the fish in this sea to feed our people... never hungry." Yuan Kai was very excited. His active mind had a lot of thoughts. He was so clumsy that he could not explain one by one, but could only express his determination in a simple and simple way.

What a happy word to eat.

Tianhao waved his hands with a smile, and signaled Yuan Kai, who stood up with his hands on the table, to sit down: "The reason I asked you to come here today is that I have something to talk to you."

Yuan Kai suppressed his violent beating heart, pursed his lips, bit his teeth hard, then opened it, and nodded repeatedly: "You said."

"I plan to let you change your seat." Tianhao's voice was very calm, revealing unquestionable seriousness: "Prepare, take three thousand people tomorrow to build a new city to the north."

Yuan Kai was sure that he had heard the word "city" instead of "village". Although he was a little surprised, he calmed down and asked seriously: "What do you mean is to build a city to the north?"

Tianhao picked up the wine pot placed at his hand and filled his empty glass: "You are very familiar with that place, and I took people there last year."

Yuan Kai suddenly realized.

In April last year, according to Tianhao's order, Yuan Kai took four fishing boats to sail north along the coast, with the purpose of calculating the voyage between him and A43. On the way, Yuan Kai discovered two larger river estuaries, especially one located south-south near Panshi City, which is a natural deep-water port.

"The fishing village is too small. The terrain around Panshi City restricts development, so it is destined to be impossible to change. The rivers in the north have different estuaries, with wide terrain and large areas of arable land. There are natural advantages to building a city there. When the roads are connected in the later stage, they can form a whole with Panshi City." Tianhao took a sip of wine: "Xu Kun will follow you, and I will give you all the construction requirements and materials separately. I have thought about it. The name of this new city is "Liendu". You don't have to worry about the population. The current tentative number is 30,000."

Yuan Kai was completely stunned.

Tianhao fully understood what he was thinking at this moment, smiled, filled the wine glass again, and raised his glass: "Let me give you a cup, the future lord of the capital."

Yuankai felt shortness of breath, and he completely forgot that he should raise his glass to return the gift in such a thing. The strong excitement and happiness almost made him die, which was a feeling of drowning in sweetness and emotion. He felt a little dizzy, and almost moved away from the chair. Facing Tianhao, he knelt heavily on the ground with his knees, bit his fingers without hesitation, and applied blood to the palm of his right hand.

It feels so good to be trusted.

I will never betray.

...

At dawn, Yuan Kai left Panshi City with his immigration regiment and baggage team. The bright sunshine shone on his face, reflecting a red full of hope for the future.

Tianhao also got up very early. He stood on the roof of the city lord's mansion and watched people gather in the square, lined up, and turned toward the city gate to the north.

Ayi slowly walked behind him and put on a thick leather robe. Although it was not far from spring, the weather was still quite cold, and the ground was covered with a layer of frost, and they would melt after a few hours.
