The boundary monument had been built by stonemasons. Li boss Fu Mingyuan went to the Governor's Mansion hand in hand to ask Gu Nanxi if there was anything else he wanted to explain.
In Yunzhou in August, there is some heat and the astringent fragrance of green grass in the air.
In the thatched pavilion of the Governor's Mansion, Gu Nanxi was lying on a rocking chair, drinking milk tea and watching Wang Buxi and Yan Tongchu playing chess in front of the stone table.
Fu Mingyuan and Boss Li looked at each other, unwilling to break this rare leisure time.
"You are here? Sit down casually. What would you like to drink?" Gu Nanxi did not get up. The warm sun was hitting her body, making her drowsy.
Boss Li found an empty seat and sat down: "I want the new caramel milk tea."
"You are a good eater. Do you want to add pearls?"
"Yes. ! Put more." Boss Li has been busy setting up defenses recently and hasn't gone to Huaishuo Town to drink milk tea for a long time.
Yan Tongchu, who was still playing chess, said without raising his head: "You told me earlier, send someone to tell me in advance next time. I will just bring it over to you."
Boss Li: "Why do I have the nerve to trouble you just for a cup of milk tea? I'll just come here and have a sip!"
Several people chatted with each other.
Gu Nanxi, who was about to fall asleep, didn't know what she thought of, and suddenly burst into laughter.
"Sir, have you thought of something fun?" Boss Li has been following Gu Nanxi for a long time, and he doesn't have so many taboos when speaking.
Gu Nanxi opened her eyes, and the little smiles in her eyes were like twinkling stars in the sky, making others feel happy.
"I suddenly remembered a story. There was a family who loved farming. Once someone stepped on his field, he would be furious and beat the other person to a bloody head. His neighbor changed Another crop, and by the end, this family has more and more farmland..."
Yan Tongchu and Wang Buxi looked up and blinked in confusion. What's so funny about this story?
Boss Li also scratched his head, wondering where the joke was?
Seeing that no one understood what she meant, Gu Nanxi sighed softly. Maybe this was the generation gap of the times.
“It’s okay, I’ll just say it casually, you don’t have to take it to heart.”
Despite what Gu Nanxi said, after Boss Li and others left the Governor’s Mansion, they still found A place to gather.
"What's the meaning of General's story?" Fu Mingyuan really didn't understand.
Wang Buxi frowned. Ever since Song Zhizhou returned to Kyoto, perhaps the adults also knew that no one could guess her thoughts accurately, so she didn't say such meaningful words for a long time.
Today I suddenly said something like this, there must be a reason for it!
"Sir Yan, why did you come to see me?" Wang Buxi asked.
Yan Tongchu was at a loss: "Aren't the canneries actively purchasing fruits recently? Some villagers asked me if I would like to plant more grapes next year. Why don't I come to inquire about the news and see if the cannery can plant more grapes next year? Plan! ”
Wang Buxi thought about it, but still had no clue, so he turned to Boss Li and Fu Mingyuan: "What are you two here for?"
Boss Li and Fu Mingyuan said in unison: "Boundary monument!"
Wang Buxi stood up and put his hands behind his back, spinning around in circles.
Your Excellency knows that the comprehension ability of yourself and others is not as good as Song Zhizhou, so you will definitely not speak too obscurely.
But when she spoke, it meant that this matter couldn't wait!
What do adults mean?
"How about we write a letter and ask Song Lang?" Fu Mingyuan suggested. "No!" Wang Buxi refused without thinking.
If you let the adults know that even I and others can't handle this trivial matter, they will never be entrusted with important responsibilities in the future!
Boss Li is a real person. He is still thinking about the story Gu Nanxi told: "Why does that family plant more and more fields? Under normal circumstances, the people in the village will not pay for these three acres. Are you going to fight over land? ”
"I know!" Wang Buxi slammed the table, startling everyone.
Wang Buxi's eyes shone with confidence: "Why does that family plant more and more? Because even his neighbors can't beat him! If he plants a ridge of vegetables next to him, the neighbors will naturally look for it. He came to argue. He beat his neighbor into submission on the grounds that others were disturbing his farming. Doesn’t it belong to him?”
Yan Tongchu frowned: “The land is owned, what does the government do?”
Wang Buxi? The meaning is: "The land on the grassland has no owner."
Yan Tongchu understood!
Boss Li and Fu Mingyuan still don't understand.
"Mr. Wang, please tell me clearly, what do you mean?" Mr. Li jumped up and down anxiously.
Wang Buxi touched his beard and said with a smile: "Don't worry about what this means, you just need to know that you can place this boundary monument as far as you can!"
Boss Li was speechless, so he said he hated scholars the most. They talked half of the words and so on. It was so annoying!
The sun sets in the west and the moon shines brightly in the sky.
Wang Buxi's admiration for Gu Nanxi was like the endless stream of a river.
At first he didn't understand. Why did the general bother to build boundary markers?
Now he understands that only by erecting boundary markers can Yunzhou's expansion of territory be rationalized and legalized!
Recovering the grassland at once will only benefit the court man in the end.
But if the general boils a frog in warm water and eats a little bit every day, everyone will assume that this land belongs to Yunzhou!
high! It’s really high!
Boss Li didn’t understand what this group of people wanted to do, but he knew that he must complete what the adults told him to do without any compromise!
"Abriji, let's go! Follow me to build the boundary markers!"
Boss Li got on his horse early in the morning, led his men, and used the carriage to pull the heavy boundary markers. Take action!
This time to draw the line, we start from the market and ride a horse north for a day. After the sun goes down, we will set up monuments wherever the horses go!
One day's riding is enough for the Yunzhou cavalry to maintain security within the territory.
Last winter, the Yunzhou cavalry tried to limit the journey to two days, but in the end they found it too difficult.
In winter, we faced scattered Tatars. Within two days of horse riding, although Boss Li and others patrolled actively, some caravans were unfortunately robbed.
As soon as the boundary monument is put out, the majesty of the boundary monument must be displayed!
Any omission is a heavy blow to the majesty of the boundary monument.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, the first time a boundary marker is set up, it will be a one-day journey.
“Hey! Here we come!” Abu Riji got on his horse and followed Boss Li in the envious eyes of the tribe.
"Sir, why aren't our pastures included in Yunzhou?"
Abriji followed Mr. Li for a few days and wisely realized the secret of a one-day journey.
The pasture where the Aburiji tribe is located is not very far from Yunzhou City, and it can be traveled back and forth in half a day on horseback.
Boss Li: "The general said that it is not easy for your prairie tribes to find good pasture. What will you do if we include the pasture?" (End of Chapter)
