The third update of Chapter 346 Unseen Countryside Map
Zhu Yuanzhang followed the village chief and Hanhan, plus Zhu Biao, Zhu Chong and guards, all the way to the village's sacrificial hall.
Outsiders are not allowed to enter other people's sacrificial halls. Only the chief and Hanhan go inside, and Hanhan helps move a box out.
This box was brought from the Xiaqiu Village Shrine Hall outside Chaoyang Gate when I came back. The box will be where the people are.
The box is filled with various drawings drawn by Hanhan, including letters and question books written by the previous teacher.
This box plus the contents weighed one hundred and fifty-six pounds. Hanhan didn’t even need to thread the poles or ropes through the loops. He carried it directly on his shoulders.
Li Zhang holds a roll of cloth under his arm. He goes outside to spread the cloth on the concrete floor, folds it back and forth into four layers, and then asks Hanhan to put the box on it.
Li Chang took off a rope from his neck. There is a key at the other end of the rope, and he used the key to unlock it.
He opened the box carefully, and everyone smelled a scent, which was obviously used to prevent moths.
There is a layer of satin on the top, and the satin is lifted up to reveal what is underneath. There is a separate large box in it.
He picked it up with difficulty, put it on the mat next to the box, opened the box, and revealed bundles of paper, the best rice paper that is less likely to rot than silk.
To describe this kind of rice paper, there is a saying that the charm of ink is ever-changing and the life of paper is thousands of years.
Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi naturally knew that this was the best paper in Xuancheng and it was expensive.
"Your Majesty, wait a moment." The chief turned around and ran into the sacrificial hall. After a while, he brought out a basin of water.
"Your Majesty, Prince, King Qin, and Hanhan, wash your hands first." The chief handed over the soap and hand towels.
"Okay, wash your hands." Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry, but he just felt uncomfortable with sweaty hands.
After all five people washed their hands, the chief took out a rolled piece of paper and asked Hanhan, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Xi to show it to Zhu Yuanzhang with him.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xi held their hands and looked at each other, and were stunned for an instant.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were obviously wider, and a picture with the names of places, mountains, and the directions of rivers and lakes appeared in front of him.
The boundaries of each state capital are marked, including the passes.
As he watched, he suddenly staggered, quickly adjusted his feet, squinted his eyes and took a deep breath. After a while, he opened his eyes again and continued to look.
"Dad, this picture is great," Zhu Xi said beside him.
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him, "We still need you to say oh, huh, huh, huh, this picture."
Zhu Yuanzhang never thought that one day he would see such a map. Compared with the maps of previous dynasties, What is in front of me is simply waste paper.
He stretched out his hand to touch it, but as soon as his finger touched the paper, he quickly retracted it, "Be careful, don't use too much force, don't damage our picture."
His two sons nodded and relaxed a little, thankfully the paper was of good quality.
Nowadays, the paper used for drawing maps is the same size as silk and satin, but of course cannot be compared with Shu brocade and Su embroidery.
But the things painted on this paper are much more valuable than Su embroidery and Shu brocade.
"Yi Chang, what are the small strips on it?"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the map and found that there were small strips on the top and left, the ones on the top were vertical and the ones on the left were horizontal. of.
"Your Majesty, that is a scale. The ratio on this picture is one to 500,000. The distance of one grid on the picture is equal to the actual distance of 500,000.
Right now The distance of this grid should actually be nearly ten miles. There may be deviations, but come to think of it."
"Don't be afraid of some deviations. If we had this map, we would have started a war."
Zhu Yuanzhang did not expect that this map not only marked the names of mountains, states and counties, the locations of rivers and lakes, but also distances.
This is obviously for war. I have never seen it since I was a child. No, I have never heard of such a map.
How do you create the distance? It feels like you are drawing high in the sky and facing the ground.
Oh, this grid is on the picture, but in reality it is half a million grids long.
Then with two rulers, one on the top and one on the left, you can accurately know the distance from which place to which place.
"These are three from several houses, no, more than four. In the end," Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it and found that it was incomplete, that's all.
"Dad, there are still more in the box." "What?" Zhu Xi spoke again.
"Yes, put it away. Put this one away first, be careful not to damage it."
Zhu Yuanzhang directed everyone to re-roll the picture.
The reason why it is rolled is because I am afraid that the folding position will be worn, which may break the folding part, or the words and lines may be worn away.
After one picture is rolled up, take out another roll and unfold it. It has the same layout as the previous picture, except that the place names and rivers have changed.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a look, "Okay, okay, put it in. It should be long. How many places are there in the box."
"Your Majesty, there are places where the Ming Dynasty is." Long answer.
"There are priceless treasures from the entire Ming Dynasty. They are really priceless treasures. We want to put this in"
"Your Majesty, the original manuscript must be placed in the Xiaqiu Village Sacrifice Hall. You can find a copying expert to draw it." , We can't take away the village's treasure."
When the village chief saw that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to take it away, he immediately became anxious. He took this precious thing and wondered how long it would take to get the next one.
As for a certain picture being accidentally destroyed, you can let Hanhan draw another one. The picture is in Hanhan’s heart.
"Uh" Zhu Yuanzhang was stuck. He looked at the scroll in the box, then looked at the box, took out a letter from the box, opened it and looked at it. He had an impression, but the word was different.
"Good calligraphy, it's the same as the characters on Picture Reading. Hey, this is not regular script, it's regular script. This regular script is beautifully written. I want to do it.His book skills are also great.
Ah, these are the original pictures for reading pictures. They actually used them for engraving and made them dirty. Here, there are black ones.
We found that the things in this box are all treasures. Well, let’s find someone to copy them and send back the original drawings. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang took a look at the contents of the box and immediately knew what they were.
Once upon a time, there were things written and drawn by masters that could not be drawn. You can send original manuscripts, such as drawings of open-hearth furnaces for steelmaking, and you can read and read pictures.
If it is simple, the chief can draw it, and the chief can draw it himself, and put the manuscript into a box and send it to the shrine.
Li Chang nodded repeatedly, yes, these things in Xiaqiu Village are very precious.
"Zhu Li Chang, I think you will bring this with you once you go out in large numbers. Box, I think the shrine hall with the box is the real shrine hall."
Zhu Biao has seen this box several times. It was moved around in Xiaqiu Village. This time, they all came out and moved the box. Go to the village's sacrificial hall.
There should be four sacrificial halls in Xiaqiu Village. One is where the lunch box is sold and there is a memorial tablet. I couldn't go back there before, so I wrote a memorial tablet. p>One is outside the Donghua Gate, the other is outside the Chaoyang Gate, and the last one is naturally the original place, the sacrificial hall here.
Hearing the prince’s words, the chief shook his head slightly: “Your Highness. My misunderstanding was that the real sacrificial hall in Xiaqiu Village contains a box, and it is not the location of the box that is the real sacrificial hall.
Xiaqiu Village does not look at the box when looking at the memorial hall, but at the people. The real memorial hall in Xiaqiu Village is the memorial hall where the village guardians live. Wherever the village guardians are, the memorial hall will be there. ”
“Xiaqiu Village, village guard, I’m so stupid, hey hey hey hey”
