Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

Chapter 132 What happened in Hanzhong

"Less than three hours."

At the exit of Qinping Avenue, after handing the previous 'payment card' to the toll collector at the exit, the six-fingered black man looked at the sky and suddenly sighed and said this.

Fu Nian and Tian Guang were slightly silent, and they naturally understood the meaning behind the words of the Six-fingered Black Man.

Everyone knows that the road to the Qinling Mountains is difficult and dangerous.

At the past speed, it would take at least two or three days for ordinary people to cross the Qinling Mountains by horse-drawn carriage.

However, now through this [Qinping Avenue], it is estimated that not only carriages, but even an entire caravan crossing the Qinling Mountains will basically not take a day.

Compared to before.

The existence of Qinping Avenue will directly increase the traffic efficiency and safety across the Qinling Mountains countless times.

What's even more shocking to the three of them is that since 'Cement' can build such a flat road so quickly in a dangerous place like the Qinling Mountains.

If it is used in war, building bridges, paving roads, and casting forts...

What kind of terrifying power should be exerted?

"Lord Shengping, Lord Mo, is indeed a very human being. It's a pity that such a 'divine object' should benefit the country and the people, and should not appear on the battlefield!"

The six-fingered black man couldn't help but sigh.

Mohist disciples have always followed the concepts of "loving all, not attacking" and "opposing war", walking in the rivers and lakes, and acting chivalrously.

Originally a year ago.

When the Six-Fingered Black Man first heard the news that Mr. Mo had created the [first generation improved rice seed], he was very excited and excited, because in his opinion, this 'new rice seed' created by Mr. Mo Once it is spread all over the world, it will be enough for all the people in the world to no longer have to endure hunger, and everyone can fill their stomachs.

Once everyone has enough to eat and drink, there will naturally be no need to start wars to plunder resources, and there will be no more wars in the world.

But what happened next made Six Finger Black Man very disappointed.

Because after Mo Jun created this 'new rice seed', he did not spread it throughout the world, but only supported the Qin State.

But what puzzled the Six-Fingered Black Man the most was the start of the ‘Battle of Wu Sui’.

This battle made the Six-fingered Black Man feel unprecedentedly confused.

Because in his view, the former Qin State was located in a barbaric wilderness with barren land and frequent famines, so it could only use war to plunder other countries' resources to feed its own people.

Although Six Finger Black Man didn't like the war at that time, he could understand it.

But now, it is clear that the Qin State already has a "new rice seed". Once the "new rice seed" matures, the Qin State will no longer have to suffer from famine and food problems.

But under such circumstances, Qin not only did not stop the war, but instead went a step further and increased the scale of the war.

This battle.

For the first time, the Six-Fingered Black Man had doubts about the ideal of "peace in the world" that he once believed in.

Because if a country still starts a war when there is absolutely no reason to start a war, then it means that there is really no way to prevent the war from starting in this world.

The Six-Fingered Black Man was confused.

That's why he chose to come to Hanzhong. He wanted to find the answer from Mr. Mo, and also wanted to find a glimmer of hope from Mr. Mo.

Except after Qin Ping Avenue.

The three of them continued walking along a flat road paved with dirt for about a quarter of an hour.

Then the scene of densely forested and deserted mountains in front of them suddenly changed. Looking down a hillside, they saw a golden and dense rice field slowly coming into view of the three of them.

It's autumn harvest season now.

In the golden farmland, one dark-skinned farmer after another was busy harvesting rice. With a wave of the sickle, a large handful of rice fell.

Then I saw several women and children coming over quickly, picking up the rice and putting it into a [hand-operated rice thresher] in front of me. As the wheel inside the rice thresher rotated, the rice was full and plump. The ear was quickly knocked down.

Wait until an acre of land is harvested.

The wooden box under the rice thresher, which could hold three stones of grain, was already full, and some of it even overflowed.

Seeing such a harvest, the farmer man, who was already sweating profusely from harvesting rice, suddenly smiled with joy. His mouth opened, and the two rows of white teeth in the sun formed a sharp contrast with his dark skin.

Seeing such a peaceful scene, Fu Nian, Tian Guang, and Six-fingered Black Man all felt relieved instantly.

Especially the Six Fingered Black Man.

The scene before my eyes.

For him, it was almost what he dreamed of seeing. However, after years of hard work, he still could not find the result.

"What's this?"

Suddenly, Tian Guang on the side seemed to have discovered something, and walked to a vegetable field on a mountain ridge.

Seeing this, Fu Nian and Six-fingered Black Man also walked over.

And when they saw the vegetables grown in the vegetable fields, they couldn't help but be stunned.

Because they suddenly discovered that they had never seen any of the vegetables grown in these acres of vegetable fields.

Tian Guang, who was born in a farmer's family, couldn't help but want to get closer and take a closer look.

As a result, before he could get closer, he heard a sudden reprimand coming from behind him: "Hey~~ There are three little thieves, stay away from my vegetable patch."

The three of them turned to look.

I saw an old farmer rushing over angrily.

Seeing the old farmer approaching, the six-fingered black man quickly stepped forward and explained: "Don't get me wrong, old man. We are not thieves. We were just passing by and saw the strange shapes of the vegetables in the old man's vegetable field, so we were a little curious."

The old farmer was obviously not in the mood to listen to the explanation of the six-fingered black man. He just said urgently: "I don't care if you are thieves or not. You should first keep him away from my vegetable fields. The vegetables in my vegetable fields are all precious and will be damaged if they are damaged." You can't afford it."

When Tian Guang heard this, he also stood up and took a few steps away, while the old farmer quickly stepped forward and protected the vegetable field behind him like an old hen protecting its chicks.

After the old farmer's mood gradually stabilized.

Tian Guang finally couldn't help but asked: "Old man, I wonder what kind of vegetables are behind you. Why have I never seen them before?"

Perhaps because he saw that Tian Guang, Fu Nian, and Six Finger Heixia really didn't look like thieves, the old farmer looked at the three of them and slowly said, "Of course you can't have seen these dishes, these are all Shengping Lords." After we came to Hanzhong, we were given vegetable seedlings from Hanzhong people."

"Sheng Pingjun has already said that he will send people over to purchase the vegetables in the old man's vegetable garden in a while."

"You kids, it doesn't matter if you break the old man's things. But if you break the Shengping-kun's things, then don't blame the old man. I won't be polite."

At the end of the sentence, the old farmer also glared at the three of them.

When the three of them heard this, they immediately looked at each other.

Why is it Lord Shengping again?

Although Hanzhong now belongs to Lord Shengping, his reputation spread here too quickly!
