On the Qinhuai River, countless boats were sailing in the middle, and there were also fast boats rushing ahead to call the boats to the shore.
Unlike the continuous rain in the northern grasslands, it has not rained here for many days.
The sky is blue. The cotton-like clouds seemed to be fixed in the sky.
The clear water surface reflected the tall ships in the distant ripples.
Occasionally, water birds will land on the side of the boat, preening their feathers and looking around, as if they were looking at these particularly large boats.
When there is a shadow in the water, there will always be a clever water bird diving into the water. After a while, it will come up with a fish in its mouth and swallow it slowly.
The fleet traveled upstream, and when they reached the Rouge River, someone on a dragon boat said, "Look, gentlemen, this is a great river and mountain in the Ming Dynasty, and it is worthy of being named after Rouge."
The officials on the boat looked helpless, but they had to praise them. The rocks on both sides of the Taiwan Strait were indeed beautiful and colorful.
"Your Highness, there is a house over there, but it is not suitable for His Majesty and you princes."
Li Chang was talking to Prince Zhu Biao in another cabin on the ship. Stay nearby.
The Holy Spirit went on a tour today and went to Xiaqiu Village to see the harvest of wheat, ramie, and rapeseed.
The ministers are all following, and the prince and princess are also there. The key is that the prince and princess will be nine months in ten days, so why are they following?
"But let your people squeeze in." It's crowded. My father didn't live in any good houses when he was at war, so I didn't care.
I just came here to have a look and was always bored in the palace. This time I was out for three to four days. , other places are not interesting, it is better to send the title books to Nanjing and Xiaqiu Village, it will only take half a day at most. "
Zhu Biao. He looked nonchalant, as his father wanted to come and take a look.
To put it bluntly, it is to bring the ministers to witness the increase in grain production in Xiaqiu Village. Others always say, what if it is fake?
Collect it on site, see how many acres it is, and weigh it immediately. After reading this, I decided that this place would be the place to plant high-quality seeds in the future.
As much land as you want, expand it directly. In this way, if others dare to say something they shouldn't say behind your back, you can deal with it.
It’s not just about having fun, it has a political purpose.
As for the princess, there is a special place on the ship before the day comes.
When we arrived in Xiaqiu Village, there was a professional delivery room in Xiaqiu Village, and there were many medicinal materials in the village medicine shop.
The prince has to follow, throw the princess into the prince's mansion, give birth early, or have other accidents
"It's okay, it's hot, be careful to prevent heatstroke. After a while, Let's go to Shijiu Lake. This artificial canal is fifteen miles away." When the village chief saw the prince saying this, he didn't care. Most of the people in the village came here anyway.
There were only box lunch restaurants and glass kiln guards in Nanjing. Then the village was taken over by the army and no one else was allowed in.
The village elders alsoI am very happy to go home and watch the wheat harvest. Even if the Suzhou gardens outside Chaoyang Gate are built, it will not be as good as this home.
After passing the Shififili Canal, everyone saw flocks of ducks and geese on the boat, and some followed the boat for a swim.
Some ducks turned their heads to look, and plunged their heads into the water. When they came out again, the tails of small fishes around their mouths were moving, and they were immediately swallowed.
There were many boats parked on Shijiu Lake. They were stopped and told that they could not leave until a fleet of boats passed by.
Many boats came to the pier to dock temporarily, and people went to the department stores there.
"Mr. Ma, what kind of boats are these?" Huang Lizhang likes to sit at the door of the department store when he has nothing to do.
A shed was built here, and the children read and practiced calligraphy under the shed.
Ma Hui and Qian Dushi could not find the Four Treasures of the Study, so the village bought them themselves. They rowed to the south and bought inkstones and ink in Shexian County, and paper and pens in Xuancheng.
I always buy the cheap ones, but the cheap things in these two places are not cheap when sold outside.
The boats in the two key places are going to Yingtian Mansion. They must pass by Shijiu Lake. If you get tired here, you can dock and have a rest.
Both parties know each other, so go buy things in person instead of having them brought over. The price must be kept low.
In this way, the children have the four treasures of the study. They first use wooden sticks to write on the ground, and then use brushes to write on paper.
Occasionally, adults come to learn a few words. They don’t expect to be able to write them, just know them.
Everyone respected Ma Hui and Qian Dushi very much. They did not call them shopkeepers or scholars, but called them sir.
Ma Hui saw the fleet, and he was stunned. It was not until Huang Lichang shouted twice that he came back to his senses and said, "Your Majesty is traveling, look at the flags, the princes and princesses are also coming. Quite a few."
"Ah, where is he going when His Majesty comes out?" Huang Lichang lowered his voice.
"Go to Xiaqiu Village and carry the flag of Xiaqiu Village. You don't have to do this, Mr. Huang. Your Majesty does not avoid people when traveling. He is not patrolling incognito."
The money next to him Du Shi took the conversation and told Huang Lizhang to just speak normally. This was done openly and not secretly.
Huang Lichang thought about it and said, "Yes, the wheat in Xiaqiu Village is about to be harvested, and we have to harvest it too. There are also soybeans planted in early spring in Xiaqiu Village, and they can be harvested now."
Everything grown in their village is used as seeds. Unlike us, we love to eat pasta, so if we don’t harvest the wheat, we will have noodles.”
“Love. I love eating." Ma Hui and Qian Dushi nodded together. If indica rice is not used to make rice noodles, it is not as delicious as noodles, and japonica rice is too expensive.
This side is not further south. There is a lot of pasta and it has to be transported by canal from the north.
"Well, after we finish harvesting the wheat, we will plant soybeans and make tofu for you in late autumn."
Huang Li has always entertained the two teachers. This status is more powerful than the store manager of a department store.
"Why not plant rice?" Qian Dushi thinks that the rotation should be rice. HereThere is a lake.
"The rising water has washed away the rice seedlings. It's so tiring and exhausting, but it's all gone in one rush. The soybeans don't have to be so tired." Huang Lichang has his own ideas.
While they were talking, the front of the fleet had passed, and the remaining tail had left the Rouge River.
After a while, we entered the downstream section of the Huangchi River.
Someone is building a road by the river, and it has already reached Danyang Lake. This can be seen. What is not visible is that it is built according to the terrain, and the road ahead reaches the Rouge River.
I am looking for someone to repair it slowly without exerting any effort. There is a road by the Rouge River, waiting for more people to come over. Following this road, I can go all the way to Nanjing.
Because the Qinhuai River has existed for many years, there has always been a road along the river, but it only needs to be connected, widened and leveled.
"Zhu Lichang, I saw a lot of gravel piled up on the roadside. Isn't the road repaired?" Zhu Biao looked through the binoculars.
“There is no sand, only stones of different sizes, some of which are weathered stones, piled on the roadside, with a bamboo shovel stuck diagonally on top.
Follow it back. This is always the case along the way to the bank of the Qinhuai River, with piles placed at intervals.
After it rains, or when the road is bad in other circumstances, passers-by will use bamboo shovels to help patch it up. ”
The head of the village introduced the situation. Sand and gravel were used to repair the road, and a bamboo shovel was placed there.
When a certain location subsides after it rains, as long as someone passes by, they can fill it with sand and gravel with a bamboo shovel and step on it.
No one takes the bamboo shovel home and it is worthless. When it comes to filling holes, everyone is very conscious. People may be illiterate, but they know that everyone must work together to maintain this road.
Even if a child is thirsty while walking on the road and sees cucumbers in other people's vegetable fields, he will step on the ditch instead of the platform. He will pick the big cucumbers on the top and cut off the back with his nails. Don't pull the seedlings.
