Chapter 938: I Won’t See You Again This Time 1

After the driver took over the two bowls, the child changed his position to grab the pancake. The Japanese delegation looked at the people around Zuixianju and became curious again.

The clothes those people wore were much worse than those of the people they had seen in Lantian County before. They wore linen clothes, which was normal.

The clothes were made of the same material as those worn by people in their own country, and there were people in their own team wearing clothes made of linen.

"What are they eating?" Xiadao Zhenbei saw that those people were holding pieces of things in their hands.

Use a bowl to scoop soup, put something between two thin slices of food, find a place to bite and eat, and then drink a mouthful of soup.

From the way they eat, it seems that the thing is not easy to chew.

"Black bread." The child said while eating, and frowned again. It was obvious that the bump on his face hurt.

The driver drove the car again, drank the soup first, and let the soup in the bowl be less to avoid spilling it.

He said to Xiadao Zhenbei: "The people who came together from other places a few days ago came with no money, only a little old wheat and bran..."

The driver introduced that a group of people were from the same place and went to Chang'an together to make a living.

They walked and begged for food, got some food in Luoyang, and hurried to Chang'an.

There was nothing to eat in Lantian County, so they continued to beg.

The people in Lantian County were rich, so each family gave them some food and walked from the village to the county town.

There were restaurants and food shops in the county town, and they also helped them a little.

Later, a broker came and arranged work for them.

They said they would provide food and accommodation, but they didn't want it. They asked for daily payment, and converted accommodation and food into money, four coins per person per day.

They slept outside, it was not cold, and they bought a one-coin black bread for dinner, which was enough for a family of three to eat for a day.

When eating, they ran to the door of Zuixianju to drink free soup and eat free pickles.

"Because they were afraid that they would not eat well, Zuixianju added tofu and wild vegetables to the soup, and the meat on the bones was obviously more. After they recover, they can go to Chang'an."

After the driver said the last sentence, he took a bite of the roll, which contained bean sprouts, celery shreds, carrot shreds, and lean meat shreds.

After brushing with fried egg-fried black bean sauce, the mouth was full of fragrance.

Some of the Japanese envoys translated for others, and the team suddenly became lively and discussed.

The team continued to go north, and after walking about ten miles, a post station appeared.

There was a shed outside the post station, and two people sat in the shed.

Under the shed was a large earthenware pot on the earthen stove.

"If you are thirsty, you can drink some water. The supply should be... boiled water now."

The driver finished eating and carefully put the two bowls away. He would return them to the Li family village.

The Japanese envoys were indeed thirsty and hungry. Under the guidance of the driver, they went to scoop water to drink, and several people shared one bowl.

They gulped down, but more than a hundred people didn't drink it, and the water was gone.

The person guarding the shed went to get water again and pointed to the front: "There is another place ten miles away, otherwise you can wait and boil another pot."

The Japanese people discussed and decided not to wait, so they sped up.

Sure enough, another shed and a post station appeared ten miles away.

Those who didn't drink water just now went to drink water, and Xia Dao Zhenbei continued to talk to the driver.

"When we came, there were post stations on the road, one every ten miles. Does the Tang Dynasty need so many post stations?"

Xia Dao Zhenbei finally confirmed that there was one every ten miles. When he saw it on the road, he didn't quite believe it.

"It's convenient for travel. Ordinary people can go to the post station. It's said that they can eat and drink for free, but the food and accommodation are not good."

The driver talked about the post station, but the specific situation was not clear, and he didn't need the post station.

Xia Dao Zhenbei showed envy and surprise in his eyes. He knew how much money the Tang Dynasty would spend to provide free food and accommodation for the people.

His own country doesn't have it now and can't afford it.

He sighed: "I heard that the people of Jingzhao Prefecture have cancelled the taxes on labor service and taxes?"

"Yes, because when people buy things, merchants have to pay taxes, so there are two less things. After the rent is calculated, people who don't have land don't have to pay anything.

Like me, I make a living by driving a cart, thinking about how to make money all day, and I don't have to buy other things to pay."

The driver said this, showing a happy look, with less burden, more money, and can buy more things and eat meat.

Of course, the driver didn't know that the method used by Japan now is to learn from the Tang Dynasty.

There are rents, labor service, and additional labor service.

At the same time, they also learned to make copper coins from the Tang Dynasty, but the liquidity is not good. When they are outside, they are not recognized outside.

The situation of the land allocation system, the land began to merge, which is very serious, almost the same as the Tang Dynasty.

However, Li Yi is in the Tang Dynasty, so he doesn't allow rent to be collected like that, otherwise it will be over in a few years.

While the two were talking, the people over there finished drinking water, and the team started on the road again, still every ten miles.

When the sun set, everyone arrived at Lijiazhuangzi.

The Japanese envoys saw rows of houses in the distance, with vehicles shuttling back and forth, and even more people walking.

There were large and small ships in the river, which were many times more prosperous than their Heijokyo.

The officials of the Honglu Temple got the news and went to Li's farm to greet them together with the Japanese envoys in the Honglu Temple.

The driver stopped the car at the place where the trade was done at the bridge head and waited for the farmer to see the tea leaves.

The child took the bowl to the farmer to explain his purpose and was led in.

It was dark, and the Japanese envoys wanted to stay in Sifang Pavilion. The Honglu Temple could not accommodate them because there were too many people.

The team told their own people stationed in Datang that two people were sick and stayed in Luoyang, and the others totaled 555.

The stationed people took them to the city with serious expressions.

Recently, the Japanese stationed at the Honglu Temple in Chang'an have seen too many things, and they are too shocked. They don't know how to tell people in China.

From here to the city gate, there are military tents connected one after another, and there are many carriages and people coming and going.

Especially when they saw two horses pulling three carriages on the track, they felt incredible.

At a station next to it, the car stopped, someone got on the car, said where he wanted to go, and put in money.

The car restarted, and the horse took small steps forward.

The Japanese envoys had never seen such things before, and felt that the horses could pull more people.

"Didn't Henan Prefecture send an envoy to accompany them?" Takagi Junichiro stationed in the Tang Dynasty asked the leader Abe no Nakamaro. ＵU Reading www.uukanshｕ.net

In the past, when the country's envoys arrived, the prefectures of various places in the Tang Dynasty had to entertain them well, and then send people to Chang'an, and there were teams following them.

"They said they were too busy, so they sent one person." Abe no Nakamaro looked back.

There was an inconspicuous person behind him, lowering his head, wearing khaki clothes, obviously of low rank, and had no sense of existence.

"Busy?" Takagi Junichiro asked again.

Abe no Nakamaro nodded: "It's really busy. The whole Henan Province is surveying the land, and officials are running around.

There are also plans to plant new rice and cancel the levy and tax for the people in some areas of Henan Province.

On the way here, we took the Chi Road, which is not like this road. I saw the exchange coupons and exchanged a few."

Abe no Nakamaro took out a few exchange coupons and looked at Takagi Junichiro.

Takagi Junichiro shook his head and whispered: "I don't know how to print it. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty will hold a banquet, take a bath later, and eat in the evening. The food will be sent to Sifang Pavilion first."
