Chapter 178
The following caravans from various aristocratic families set off a few days later than the mission, with a large number of large and small vehicles, and now they have entered the Daishui Empire. Many people can no longer bear the exhaustion.

Everyone started to discuss how to deal with it, which is not difficult. Before setting off, they thought about all kinds of possibilities. Since the Daishui Empire is using the technique of delay, they just need to spread out.

From the next day, members of the mission in twos and threes, using various excuses, left the mission team and headed south.The accompanying personnel of the Daishui Empire naturally noticed it, but they did not raise any objections and allowed the missionary staff to leave.

Ren Daoyuan was the last group of people to leave. Besides the Ren family, there were three other people.After the last batch of personnel left, the entire mission was less than half of its original size.

"Finally left, this damn Daishui Empire." Gong Zifeng cursed angrily, and vigorously whipped the Qingzhou horse that had stepped down. During these days, he was holding back a lot.The mission represents the national system, and there are rules in every word and deed.People like Gong Zifeng can't stand these rules the most.

"Stop talking nonsense." Ren Daoyuan said in a deep voice. In fact, he has not had a good life these days.It is very inconvenient for the missions to travel or stay. There are eyes staring at them everywhere. Even if they want to calm down and practice, it is impossible.

No need to wait for the Ren family team behind him, Ren Daoyuan already knew the destination of the trip, which was a small town at the southernmost tip of the state.As early as a few years ago, the Ren family had already sent several teams to fight there, spending a lot of money, but according to the information sent back, the effect was not very good.

The journey was so fast that it lasted more than a day, and a salty smell could be felt from a distance. Everyone knew that this place was not far from the destination.

Ren Daoyuan has never seen what the sea looks like, and only Ren Feng in this team has seen the magnificence of the sea when he was young.Of course, I have only seen it before. Ren Feng has never been out in the sea, and he doesn't know what it is like in the sea.

You must know that the shipbuilding industry in the mainland of Kyushu is not well-developed, and there are many ship companies that can manufacture seagoing ships.Except for the merchants who went to the South China Sea Islands to do business, very few people went deep into the sea.

In the eyes of the Kyushu people, the South China Sea islands are the people who are aliens, and the folk customs are tough, and if they disagree with each other, they draw their swords at each other.Of course, the people of Kyushu are not afraid of fighting, but fighting at sea is completely different from fighting on land. Even Master Xing can fly, but how far can he fly in the boundless sea?Not to mention Master Xing, even Yuezu, in the middle of the sea, can only look at the ocean and sigh.Only monsters like Yangshen can come and go freely.

Half a day later, the ground began to change color. The original red land became more and more red. The Qingzhou horse seemed to be stepping on a piece of blood-soaked land, and the hoof prints were deep.

"It's almost here. This should be the so-called Red Beach." Ren Feng said softly. Although he has been to the seaside, it is the southeast coast of Yuanming Yuzhou. The scenery here is very different from the extreme south sea of ​​Bingzhou. difference.

Ren Daoyuan got off the horse, stretched out his hand to grab a piece of bright red soil, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed lightly, there was no trace of bloody smell, and the strong salty smell made him feel a little uncomfortable.The red beach, thousands of miles away, is extremely rich.

When he was in Qingzhou, he couldn't believe the letter sent from Bingzhou. Only when he saw it with his own eyes did he know why it was called Red Beach.

Just because the ground is red doesn't mean it can't be planted here. In fact, Red Beach is a major food producing area in Bingzhou.It can produce as much as [-] dan per mu, which is more than three times higher than that of the black water land in Qingzhou.

Not only is the output high, but they also have three crops a year. Calculated in this way, the output of the same one mu of land on the Red Beach is nine times higher than that of the first-class rice fields in Qingzhou.

much?In terms of yield per mu alone, it is naturally extremely large.But only in Bingzhou can be found in Red Beach, and blood rice can only be produced in Red Beach.

Of course, blood rice only looks as red as blood, its taste is only average, and its nutrition is not better than other rice, so in the eyes of outsiders, it can only be regarded as a strange thing, and it is fresh to eat.Blood rice is not a good thing in Heishui Bingzhou.

Although the annual output of ninety dan is not small, the total area of ​​the Red Beach is not large after all. It is only a few hundred thousand hectares in a radius of thousands of miles. This kind of output is really nothing to the whole Bingzhou. .You know, in Bingzhou, it is normal to have three seasons a year.

In Bingzhou, there are many good crops, which are much better than blood rice.For example, pearl rice, ivory rice, thin rice and dragon pearl rice, which are treasures of Kyushu, not only taste good, but also are rich in nutrition, which can increase the blood of warriors.Those things are the good things of Bingzhou.

Among these four kinds of precious rice, Ren Daoyuan has eaten two kinds before, and knows that they are indeed good things.If a warrior can eat every meal, it will have a very good effect on recovering and increasing blood.

Even in Bingzhou, the four major pearls are limited in quantity. In addition to supplying Daozong and the royal family, they will also be sold to other eight states in small quantities.When you arrive in Qingzhou, it will become a supreme treasure, and only after you are injured or ill, you will have the opportunity to taste some.

The Ren family is also a first-class family in Yanqing Mansion in Qingzhou, and Ren Daoyuan is the eldest son of the Ren family. He has only eaten a few meals since he was a child.

The good things in Bingzhou naturally include not only the four kinds of rare rice, but also overseas rare treasures passed down from the South China Sea islands.Those treasures are not attractive to Ren Daoyuan, they are just playthings.But there are some things that can indeed attract the attention of warriors.

For example, deep-sea clam pearls, which are produced in the deep sea below a thousand feet, are only the size of a finger belly, dark black, ground into powder and taken with water, which is an excellent tonic.Drinking a cup after practicing practice may quickly replenish the exhausted physical strength.

Ren Daoyuan was recalling the various specialties of the South China Sea and Bingzhou when a group of fast horses came in the distance.This is Bingzhou, and there is a soft red beach at your feet. Even Qingzhou fast horses run at a limited speed, less than half of the original speed, and will not raise high dust.

"Master, it's the second steward." Gong Zifeng saw the leader of the team of knights from a distance, and said softly to Ren Daoyuan.

Second steward?A familiar image appeared in Ren Daoyuan's mind.There are not a few stewards in Ren's mansion, and there are not many who can impress Ren Daoyuan, but the second steward is the one with the deepest impression.

Ren Daoyuan still remembered that it was the second steward who delivered the batch of ring-shoulders back then.If there is something at home, it is mostly the steward who goes to the courtyard to deliver the message.This person should be in his 40s and is very capable.He was originally a servant of the Ren family, so there is no problem with his loyalty.

This time when I went home, I really hadn't seen him. It turned out that he had been sent to Bingzhou to develop.This person's ability is not bad, but in the letters to Ren's family, he kept complaining, which shows that the trip to Bingzhou was really not easy.

"Young master, it's been a hard journey." The second steward approached, got off his horse and saluted, with tears in his eyes, looking very excited.Ren Daoyuan is not too familiar with him, from his body shape, it is impossible to tell whether he is fat or thin.But the sunken eye sockets proved that this person has been working hard.

"Let's go, how far is it?" Ren Daoyuan asked.

"Returning to the young master, this place has just entered the boundary of Red Beach, and it is still a hundred miles away from the town of Xiangshuiwan where we are. The ground of Red Beach is soft, and horses cannot run. It will take about three hours to arrive. "The second steward's answer was extremely simple, but very clear, and he was indeed a capable person.

Ren Daoyuan knew that it was not only the second steward who was sent to Bingzhou before, but also several offshoots of the Ren family.Ren Daoyuan is naturally well aware of the situation of the Ren family. Apart from himself and his second brother Ren Xiaoyao, there is really no one in the Ren family's generation who can take action.

It is definitely not an easy task to come here to develop. It is a pity that the Ren family can't send enough smart people. The second steward in front of me has something to do.I haven't seen him for a few years, and this person has many gray hairs on his head, which shows how difficult this task is for him.

This is not surprising. People from Qingzhou were not looked down upon when they were outside. If they went to Yunzhou and Manzhou, the situation would be better, and no one was better than the other.Except for the three states, no matter which state you go to, in the eyes of others, you are some Qingzhou bumpkins, who can't stand on the stage, and it is far more difficult to do things than people in other states.

"How's the situation?" Ren Daoyuan got on his horse and headed towards Xiangshui Bay, asking as he walked.

"It's not so good. We came here four years ago, and the people in Bingzhou are extremely xenophobic. No matter how much we pay, they are not willing to sell our land. The land price in Red Beach is already high, and the price of residential land is also high. It was scary. We spent more than a year and finally convinced a poor family to buy it for us.”

Ren Daoyuan nodded, the second steward was much better than himself in handling such matters.The so-called self-habitation land refers to the land that is not suitable for planting. As the second manager of Qingzhou, it is almost impossible to buy good cultivated land here.

Moreover, the Ren family sent people to Bingzhou not to reclaim wasteland and farm land. Qingzhou has so much wasteland that no one is planting it, so why come to the extreme south.As long as they can buy enough land for their own residence and build a manor that can temporarily settle down, it will be enough.

"How big is the purchased land?" Ren Daoyuan asked.

The second steward looked distressed: "Master Mo Nu, the land here is really hard to buy. We spent a lot of money and only bought one and a half mu of land."

"What? One and a half mu?" Ren Daoyuan was really speechless. In four years, more than [-] gold coins were invested, and the efforts of hundreds of people, what he finally got was only one and a half mu of land?

How big is an acre and a half of land?Taking the Ren Mansion as an example, it covers an area of ​​more than [-] mu. That is to say, if the [-] gold coins are cast, in Bingzhou, they can only buy one-twentieth of the Ren Mansion.
