Da da! Da da! Da da! Da da! Da da! Da da da … While Princess Yongmu was eating conch meat, the telegraph was still running.
The Winged Knights would find a high place and leave 20 people behind every 100 kilometers or so.
They were responsible for relaying the signal. Everyone wanted to be at the front, so they had to draw lots.
In reality, the Li Family Zhuangzi's signal could travel more than 150 kilometers, but when they were deployed, it was only 100 kilometers away.
As signallers, the Winged Knights knew their mission. They also had a lot of power.
For example, if they found a good mountain and found that there were a few families there, they would requisition it.
If it was not a nationalization war, they would have to pay for requisition.
If it was a national crisis, they would just requisition it and convert the tractor factory into a tank factory.
All the clothing companies would start to make down jackets for the frontline soldiers.
Then, the soldiers would start to sing "Just as the pear blossoms bloom all over the world," and start to charge.
Following that was the launch of the rocket launchers that could be found all over the world. Their names were the same!
The Winged Knights of the Tang dynasty were full of national pride. Some of them received and sent messages according to the list, while others tried to memorize it.
They found that this thing was similar to flag signals.
Every 100 kilometers, they would find a place to set up one and tell the people that they would be subsidized.
"Uncle, we want to stay at your place temporarily. We'll give you money. Can you help us buy things? Our people will go with you too. We want meat that hasn't spoiled. "
The Winged Knights found a mountain to be suitable and discussed with the people living there.
The old man looked carefully and asked, "Wing … Flying?"
"Yes, uncle. We're Winged Knights. We're Winged Knights."
"What's this?"
"It's a messenger. It can send the message from 300 kilometers away. We'll send it to the next place, all the way to the Li Family Zhuangzi."
"The Li Family Zhuangzi of Baishui?"
"Yes! Would we care about other Li Family Zhuangzi? "
"My son raises pigs at the foot of the mountain. How about two catties of meat for ten coins?"
"Uncle, it's not that expensive. It's only 15 yuan per catty."
"Why are you giving me more?"
"Because the price I offered is the normal price. I can't take advantage of you."
"I'll let you guys have it."
"No, Uncle, let's get down to business. We're living here now. I'll help you build a few simple houses. You have a son at the foot of the mountain, so we don't have to worry about the mountain."
"Yes! It was the Winged Knights! The swindlers wished I could give them meat for free. The Winged Knights won't take advantage of the common people. Good! "
"Uncle, I'm impressed. You can still think so much at a time like this. We really are the Winged Knights. Don't go back and poison our food."
"That's right, that's true. Hey, tell me, what do you think is the Li Family Zhuangzi's favorite things when you live with Li Dongzhu?"
"Princess Yongmu! Old man, can you stop playing mind games? "
"Take off your shirt and let me see."
"See, I know you want to see scars. Look, they're all there."
"Put it on. Don't blame me. This is a big deal."
"It's real. You don't have to touch it."
"Then, do you have a wife? I have a daughter who sells pork with my son. She can grab a leg of a 500 catty pig and put it on the table. "
"Impossible. I can't even lift it. Uncle, if you keep talking, I'll tie you up! "
"That's right. You're a child who speaks the truth."
Just like that, the Winged Knights quickly moved forward and looked for a place. When they found a place, they left a horse for each person.
They spent money to buy things and didn't take advantage of the common people.
In the end, they bought food at a normal price, such as pork, but they also added a lot of bones.
Ten people in a group, two groups together.
After the common people sold their things, they went to spread the news. The other common people brought more things to the mountain.
This included the people who spread the news before. Then, they lowered the price of the things. Everyone said that the more things there were, the less valuable they were.
… …
Three days later, in Henan Province, a group of people gathered together to read the newspaper.
"We are selling Mai Fan Stone? It's more expensive than phosphorus ore? "
"It's right that it's expensive. We have such stones at our place. The yield per mu increased, so we thought it was phosphorus ore. After mining, we sent it to Chang 'an to sell. In the end, they said it wasn't."
"We cheated others and sold it at half price. It's illegal. The Li Family Zhuangzi bought it. Are we still going there?"
"It's been a few days. No one came to catch us. Let's mine the stones. So this is Mai Fan Stone. We have too many of them here."
"We can't go out this time. The last time we went out, we said we would help transport things. I don't know when the next shipment will be."
"Let's prepare the stones first. I'll go to the medicine shop in Luoyang and ask how much Mai Fan Stone is worth."
The group of people gathered together to discuss. They had always cooperated with the government to transport things to the other side of the river.
Then, they got to know a few boatmen who had boats. The boatmen said that there were bits and pieces of phosphorus ore in Chang 'an and that it was very easy to sell.
As long as there were stones, the grass grew better than other places.
They realized that the stones next to their houses were good for farming.
They thought they were phosphorus ores and packed a lot of them. They hired boats to sell them in Chang 'an.
When they got there, some people said that it was not phosphorus ores but ordinary stones.
When they were anxious, some smart people thought of a way. They tricked them and sold the "ordinary" stones at half the price of phosphorus ores.
After selling them, they rushed back and were scared all day.
Until they saw the newspaper that said, "The people in Chang 'an don't know what's good for them. Why did they mistake Mai Fan Stone for ordinary stones?"
There were stones next to their houses. They didn't need to dig them deliberately. There were stones by the roadside and in the fields. They just put them there.
"We cheated them. We knew that the stones were worthless, so we cheated them to buy them at half price."
"No, we had something urgent to do. That's why we sold them at half price. Who knew that the stones were not phosphorus ores but better Mai Fan Stone? We suffered a loss."
"Yes! We don't know what phosphorus ores are, but we know that crops grow well in places with such stones. That's why we dug them out and sent them to Chang 'an. "
"That's right. If you want to say anything wrong, it should be the people who first came to see the stones. They didn't know anything and said that they were ordinary stones."
"Does Li Dongzhu from Li Family Zhuangzi believe this?"
"Whether he believes it or not, he … 69 people will bear the responsibility together. If he wants to kill someone, he will kill all 69 of us."
"Li Dongzhu doesn't care about this. It's the imperial court's business."
The group of people talked and became pessimistic. They knew that they had to bear the responsibility of selling fake stones.
"Beep, beep …" Li Family Zhuangzi received a telegram. It was from the patrolling personnel on Mount Song in Henan Province.
After they learned the situation, they didn't add any personal opinions and just reported it.
"This is the most annoying thing." Li Yi didn't need others to translate. He knew what the telegram meant just by looking at the code.
That's why he was annoyed. How could this thing be fixed?
In his time, there were many situations where the court couldn't carry out consent trials in the same situation, let alone in the Tang dynasty.
"Oh my god! The competition of human nature is also a competition of capital. It's not easy! "
Li Yi was depressed. Those people actually played a little trick. They didn't hide the truth at all.
In other words, their initial purpose was not to deceive anyone. But after he deceived them, he deceived them. It was against the law.
"I can't do it anymore. Let's see how Song Jing decides. There are so many people. If he wants to kill, I can stop him."
Li Yi mumbled. He couldn't kill them!
