Chapter 186 Famous All over the World

Fu Tinghan never knew how difficult people's livelihood was, but it turned out to be so difficult.

He murmured: "If only there was cotton."

Zhao Hanzhang said: "Generally speaking, the cotton mentioned in our era refers to American cotton, but it is not that there is no cotton in this era."

Fu Tinghan looked at her.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "It's kapok, which is found in the south. Now there are people in the south who use kapok batting to fill bedding and clothes, and some people use it to weave clothes, but there is no production, and it has not spread to the north."

"It's too late," Zhao Hanzhang put his hands behind his head and said, looking at the twinkling stars in the sky: "It takes a long time to go back and forth, and procurement also takes a certain amount of time. We can only find another way."

Fu Tinghan said: "If you can stay indoors, then charcoal is a heating method, and there is also a kang?"

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I have also thought about this method. This is one of the reasons why I have always wanted to build a masonry house."

Brick and stone houses are not only more windproof and warm, but also easier to build a kang.

Cottages……

She was afraid of burning the kang and burning the thatched hut.

Fu Tinghan also thought about it and muttered: "It seems that we really need to prepare to build a brick and stone house."

The two of them were worried, but the natives were not very worried about this problem.

In their opinion, the current situation is already very good.

After taking refuge in Zhao Hanzhang, they were able to eat three meals a day, really three meals. Even if there was not one meal that they could eat freely, at least they would not be hungry.

This is already rare nowadays.

Not to mention that Zhao Hanzhang still had to build a house for them, and even prepare winter clothes and bedding for them.

When they fled, the best outcome they thought of was to go to Luoyang to beg. They would sleep in the streets and alleys, hungry and well-fed. After surviving this winter, they would see whether they could return to their hometown.

As the saying goes, if you move a tree to death, if you move a person, you will live. As long as you go out for a walk, you can always survive. If you really can't survive, let's talk about it later.

So they are satisfied with the status quo.

It just worried the upper echelons of Xiping County.

Chang Ning was also trying his best to contact people he knew before to buy supplies. Only now did he realize the benefits of following a generous master.

The money is at his disposal, as long as he can buy something of corresponding value.

She also did not hesitate to give things to the people, which was much more refreshing than Magistrate Chai who was searching for things and looking forward and backward.

Therefore, although I am tired and painful, I am also tired and happy. I would rather spend my money like running water, feeling pain and happiness at the same time.

In comparison, Ji Yuan was much calmer. Although he spent more money than Chang Ning, after all, he had served as Zhao Changyu's staff. In terms of the money he had handled, it was just trivial.

So he was very calm, calmly buying supplies everywhere, and calmly facing inquiries from all parties.

The reinforcements that had been waiting in Aoyang and refused to leave finally left. Although they didn't get much benefit in the end, they at least made the governor shed some blood.

As reinforcements from all walks of life returned to their homes, the name Zhao Hanzhang spread throughout Yuzhou.

Now everyone in the counties knows that the Zhao family in Xiping has a daughter called Zhao Sanniang. Location.

I heard that although she was only fourteen years old, she was a fierce general on the battlefield. She not only repelled Jiehu Shile outside Zhao's Wubao, but also drove away the rebels in Xiping County, captured the Xiping County seat, and sent aid to Yao. When he entered Yangcheng, he also killed two generals of the Xiongnu army.

Yes, Liu Jing is also dead.

News of his death just came out, but he did not die in Yuzhou. It is said that he fled all the way to Shangdang. Because he did not receive good treatment on the way, his wound did not heal for a long time. He died of his injuries after returning to Shangdang to see Liu Yuan. .

The injury on his body came from Zhao Hanzhang. I heard that Zhao Hanzhang chased Liu Jing and shot the last arrow from the back of his heart. It was this arrow that left him with lingering injuries and his last breath.

Therefore, not only Yuzhou, but also Luoyang had heard of Zhao Hanzhang.

However, compared to other generals who were attacking Luoyang, the news of Liu Jing's death was just an insignificant piece of information. The big guys in Luoyang brushed it off and did not take it to heart.

Except for two people.

One is Fu Zhi and the other is Zhao Zhongyu.

However, their moods were completely different.

Fu Zhi is complicated with a lot of joy, while Zhao Zhongyu is complicated with worries.

He has already felt that his command over his hometown in Xiping is getting weaker and weaker, and his control is far less than when his elder brother was the clan leader.

Zhao Hanzhang became the "county magistrate" of Xiping County. It was such an important matter, but he got the news from other places, not from Xiping.

This shows that Zhao of Xiping is deliberately hiding something from him.

If he was just Zhao Zhongyu, it would be okay, but he was still the patriarch of the Zhao family. When his eldest brother was the patriarch, would the Zhao family dare to hide such an important thing from him?

Even Zhao Song, a fat tortoise suddenly appeared in Zhao Hu's pond, wrote to Zhao Changyu.

Zhao Zhongyu couldn't help but call Zhao Ji, "This winter solstice, you go back to worship your ancestors, and come back after the New Year."

Zhao Ji refused to leave, "Father, Luoyang is under siege now. Don't tell me that I can't get out. Even if I can get out, I can't abandon the city and flee. It won't sound good if the news spreads."

Zhao Zhongyu frowned slightly, "A lot of people have escaped from the city recently. When life and death are at stake, what's not good to hear?"

Zhao Ji still felt that it was safest to follow the King of Donghai. "It's even more unsafe on the road outside the city. Father, is there anything in Xiping that forces my son to go back?"

Zhao Zhongyu looked at him quietly for a while, then waved his hand and said, "That's it. If you don't come back, you won't come back."

It suddenly occurred to him that Zhao Ming was now the magistrate of Xiping County, and he himself petitioned for the title. If Zhao Hanzhang really took control of Xiping County, then Zhao Ming would be on her side.

Zhao Ji couldn't even fight Zhao Ming, let alone Zhao Hanzhang and Zhao Ming standing together.

Forget it, there's little point in him going back.

Zhao Zhongyu put the matter aside and turned a blind eye, pretending not to know about it.

Zhao Zhongyu could pretend he didn't know about it, but Liu Yuan couldn't. He remembered Zhao Hanzhang deeply.

Liu Jing was a member of Liu Yuan's clan, and he always valued him. Although Liu Jing did some things that did not please him, so he punished him to attack Yuzhou, and even after he ascended the throne, he did not let him come back.

But that doesn't mean he can sit back and watch him get killed.

Liu Jing is one of his fierce generals!

Liu Jing has been dead for three days, but Liu Yuan still feels heartbroken every time he thinks about it. He thought of his last words before his death, "This woman has good martial arts and clear eyes. She must not be a creature in the pool. Your Majesty, if you want to seize the Central Plains, this person must be eliminated." Of."

Liu Yuan took note of it, but this was the critical time to attack Luoyang, and he could not spare any manpower for the time being.

Therefore, he felt that after Luoyang was captured, he must go straight to Xiping, Runan, to get Zhao Hanzhang's head.
