Section 0477 This and that banana
Waiting for Li and Wu to leave, Feng Ang said to Liu Mu: "It is really impossible for those soldiers in Aizhou to escape, if Wenjing is allowed to seal the city, the people and their soldiers will not come out." The people in the city of Aizhou saw that someone had made money by picking a lot of things in the mountains and forests west of their city, but they didn't get a penny, so there would definitely be chaos. ”
"Brother is clever."
"Let's send troops to suppress the formation, put pressure on them, and then receive the goods under their noses. Cash spot trading, I don't believe that Aizhou City is not chaotic. If he dares to send troops, we are on the defensive, and if he does not send troops, the city will one day turn against him or even kill him. ”
"Brother is clever." Feng Ang has been fighting for many years, and as soon as Liu Mu's little trick is used, he immediately perfects it, and uses the trick more perfectly.
Feng Ang is not afraid of fighting, but in the siege battle, the attacking side will definitely suffer, and Feng Ang does not want his subordinates to sacrifice in vain.
Liu Mu poured the wine for Feng An, and Feng Ang picked up the wine glass: "To tell the truth, I still don't believe that those grass fruits, as well as cinnamon, nutmeg, or other old brothers, can make money, and Chang'an City has never been sold." But I believe in spices, and my brother also saw it, and it is very troublesome to steam a handful of grass, but the ultimate essential oil, a good thing. ”
"And one good thing. But I don't know how to make money, this thing needs people who understand to study how to turn it into money. ”
"What?" Feng Ang asked with a smile.
Liu Mu pointed to the outside of the pavilion, where there were a few plants that I didn't know if they were plantains, bananas, or what kind of bananas. Liu Mu didn't know much about this, but he knew that abaca was the best of hemp fibers.
Feng Ang stared at the banana for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what this plant could do.
The fruit will definitely rot when it is transported to Chang'an.
"Hemp!" Yanagi said.
"Hemp?" Feng Ang looked at Liu Mu in surprise, and Liu Mu nodded: "It's this kind of plant, but it seems that there are many small species, and there is one with a high hemp production rate, and the quality is superior." ”
Feng Ang got up and slashed a banana with his knife, and Liu Mu also stepped forward to check.
The two pulled the banana leaves and banana poles to the side, and Feng Ang slowly patted the banana poles with stones with his own hands.
During the beating, Feng Ang said to Liu Mu: "We have a lot of ramie and jute here, but I didn't expect this thing to have hemp." ”
Soon, there is indeed a fine fiber sensation after the beating.
"Someone!" Feng Ang is the kind of master who is resolute and resolute, and immediately ordered his subordinates to find dozens of craftsmen who make hemp to see how much hemp there is in this thing, and what the quality is.
Then he was instructed to choose more different varieties of this banana, and then compare the yield and quality of hemp.
"I've heard that the fine part of this thing can be woven, and the thick part can be braided with rope and is not afraid of the sea, and my soft sail may be able to weave this kind of hemp."
After Liu Mu finished speaking, Feng Ang pointed to his subordinates: "You guys hurry up and do it, I want to see the results in half a month." ”
"Order."
After Feng An's subordinates retreated, Feng Ang laughed: "This thing is good, this one is tall and big, the further south it goes, the more it is, it is all over the mountains like grass, cut this piece and sprout new ones on the roots next year, change it and cut it for a year or two, and then you can go back and cut it again." ”
"I just don't know, which kind of banana hemp is good."
"It's a small problem, let them try, and they can always try it out." Feng Ang gulped down the wine, very happy.
Liu Mu could feel that Feng Ang was not interested in Jiaozhi in the past, because it was poor and bad, but now it is different, Feng Ang has felt the huge wealth here.
Time passed day after day, and as Feng Ang predicted, Wen Jing was already going crazy, and he sealed the city and didn't let anyone go north. According to Feng An's spies, there are many people in Aizhou City who want to kill Wen Jing.
Feng Ang is becoming more and more stable, and now north of Changzhou, Feng Ang has begun to prepare to build cities in six locations to expand his control over this piece of land.
Especially after discovering countless unknown balsamic trees in a mountainous area, Feng Ang decided to build a city.
The cracks in the bark of the tree have a large amount of naturally dried resin, which is designated as a fine spice.
Liu Mu and Feng Ang didn't know much about these plants, in fact, they found wild benzoin incense trees here, as well as trees like Suhexiang trees.
And the place where Feng Ang wants to build the city is the vicinity of Sangnu in the later generations.
The confrontation with Aizhou Feng Ang was handed over to his son Feng Zhidai, as well as the general Lei Hu. He personally went to several important spice-producing areas to check the location of the city.
Liu Mu accompanied Dugu Lanruo on vacation in Ha Long Bay.
Hundreds of wooden houses have been built here, and a beach has been cleared.
On this day, Liu Mu set up a formation, ready to have an interesting little gamble, but saw a ship approaching in the distance. After picking up the binoculars and taking a look, Liu Mu said to Dugu Lanruo: "It's weird, the flag on the ship is Feng Zhiji's flag." ”
"The eldest son of Yue Guogong, he is not guarding the old camp, how could he come here." Dugu Lanruo also got up and looked into the distance.
Feng Zhiji is the eldest son, known as the little prince in Lingnan, calm and reliable. Feng Ang went south and handed over the old camp to his eldest son, and also let his brother Feng Xuan guard Guangzhou.
There were people on the boat waving flags, and the boat in charge of guarding Yanagi got out of the way.
The rest of the ships were parked in the bay, and only Feng Zhiji's boat came to the dock on Liumu's side.
Liu Mu also hurriedly walked to the dock, at this time Liu Mu was wearing a fine linen shirt, the length of his pants was only up to the knees, and the clothes were also short-sleeved. His hair is short so he doesn't need a crown, he doesn't have any ornaments, he wears a pair of slippers made of hemp rope on his feet, and he holds a coconut with a thin bamboo tube in his hand.
The boat docked, a sailor put the boat on the board, and Feng Zhiji jumped off the boat.
"Little ......" Liu Mu was about to ask Feng Zhiji why he came over, but saw Feng Zhiji standing straight, and Tang Emperor Li Yuan walked down from the ship.
"Father, father!" Liu Mu was shocked and didn't even feel the coconut in his hand falling to the ground, and stood there in a daze, forgetting to give a salute.
Li Yuan looked Liu Mu up and down, and said slowly: "It seems that you can live well no matter where you are." ”
"Father." Liu Mu hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Li Yuan said to Liu Mu again: "Go and change your clothes quickly, accompany your father to Fanggang to have a look, and let the others rest here for a few days." ”
Dugu Lanruo just rushed over, she was the same as Liu Mu, she didn't have a single ornament on her body, and she was also wearing a fine linen cloth, which was cooler than silk, and the water would not stick to her body like silk.
"Changping's complexion is very good, and he will greet Concubine Wan for his father for a few days."
