Tianyuan tribe, ancestral land.
Chen Chao was lying on the kang he had slept in, beside the little old man with the horns on his head, Yi, Yi, and Cyclops who were sleeping beside him.
After a busy day, everyone is too tired.
So as soon as he lay down on the bed, he made a heavy snoring sound.
He closed his eyes slightly, reconnected to classmate Xiaodian, and planned to check the specific situation of Youzhou.
Also see if you can find a way to bring some crop seeds from Ye, such as whole cotton, soybeans and sugar cane.
With cotton, the people of the Tianyuan tribe don't need to wrap themselves in animal skins in winter.
With soybeans, what kind of tofu, tofu skin, soy milk... Even soy sauce, what a certain system boss is thinking about...
With sugar cane, that's where the sugar comes from...
One bite, the juice is flowing and sweet, who doesn't like it
Then go back with some tools, such as combing machines, anyway, they are textile tools.
After all, Chen Chao felt that it might not be possible for him to make it with his bare hands.
But first go back and re-enact the two, and study it, the problem should not be big.
Youzhou, Nanxing.
Different from the desolate scene seen before, in Chen Chao's eyes this time, the major cities of the Nanxing Dynasty have obviously recovered what they should have.
Many bustling and bustling streets are brightly lit. Looking from the sky, they look like winding fire dragons.
He still chose the big city that he observed carefully last time. According to the information, the name of this city is Nanxing, Yong'an City.
The plane of the whole city is roughly rectangular, about ten miles from north to south, and about seven miles from east to west. The city wall is built with rammed earth, about 14 to 25 meters thick.
There are 12 gates in the whole city. The three in the east are Shangdongmen, Zhongdongmen and Mumen from north to south, the three in the west are Shangximen, Yongmen and Guangyangmen from north to south, and the four in the south are Kaiyangmen from east to west. , Pingcheng Gate, Xiaoyuan Gate, and Jin Gate, and the two gates in the north are Gu Gate and Xia Gate from east to west.
The main streets in the city all lead from the city gate. The avenues cross each other and are divided into 24 sections. The width of the avenues ranges from about 20 to 40 meters. And set up a closed imperial city to manage government offices.
The industrial and commercial districts in the city are concentrated on both sides of Hengmen Street in the northwest corner. According to the records, there are nine cities in total.
There are 14 north-south avenues and 11 east-west avenues in Kuocheng. Residential houses, government offices, temples, etc. are located in a relatively chaotic manner.
Chen Chao guessed that the business district here should have formed spontaneously, because there were a lot of residential buildings mixed in during the period.
The situation of the dwellings should be similar. It is estimated that people who came here later expanded a little bit, and then built them by themselves. They did not consider any urban planning when they were built.
In general, one word can be used to describe it, messy and chaotic.
Although the whole city looks prosperous on the surface, in Chen Chao's eyes, it is closer to the urban village in the original version.
But the closer to the imperial city, the neater the plan looks.
Especially the dwellings around the few streets near the imperial city should be lived by people with a certain status in Yong'an City. The houses look more elegant than the surrounding dwellings and occupy a larger area.
With the tall imperial city as the center, there are row upon row of houses on both sides.
The population of Yong'an City is about 100,000, which is already a very good situation in this era.
At this time, the curfew that was shown on TV did not appear. Chen Chao guessed that this rule should not have appeared yet.
On both sides of the street are tea houses, taverns, pawnshops, workshops, as well as tea houses, wine shops, foot shops, butcher shops, temples, public houses and so on.
There are many small vendors with big umbrellas or selling along the street in the open space on both sides, with many kinds of commodities.
In addition to many agricultural and sideline products and handicrafts, Chen Chao also saw the surplus grain of farmers, or the bamboo and wooden utensils made by Shibai craftsmen were all in the queue for sale.
The street stretches east and west to the quieter suburbs outside the city.
Although it was already night, many shops could still be seen with their lights on on some main streets, and there were also many pedestrians on the streets, some carrying burdens, some driving ox carts to deliver goods, and some driving donkeys to pull trucks.
There are things like signboards hanging at the door of the shop, and the text on them is more like pictographs, or even pictures.
It can be seen that Daxing has evolved its own characters, but it cannot be ruled out that it evolved and became popular after Nanxing split.
Chao Chen could only guess at random, and then look at what was sold in the shop, and then he could understand what the signboard hanging on the shop was.
After all, asking him to read hieroglyphs, guessing some of them, but understanding all of them, really made him feel a little bit embarrassed.
The shops mainly sell food, clothing, and other things. There are also shops selling bamboo slips, pens, inks, papers and inkstones. Although the streets are not crowded with people, there are still many.
Chen Chao carefully looked at the people walking on the street. The cloth is still mostly made of linen, but the weaving technique will be better than that of the Tianyuan Tribe, at least the holes are not that big...
In addition to the most popular linen clothes, Chen Chao also saw silk, copper ornaments, jade pendants, jade rings, earrings, necklaces and other more elegant clothing and exquisite accessories on a small number of people.
The food sold in the shops on the street is relatively lacklustre, whether it is barbecue or a pot of stew, or... raw... but it should be finely chopped.
In the staple food, there are cakes, noodles and rice, but rice occupies the majority.
It seems that there is at least no shortage of wheat and rice in this place.
In addition to people coming and going on the street, more delicate two-wheeled carriages, ox carts and donkey carts pulling goods can be seen shuttling among them from time to time.
Riding alone...
Anyway, Super Chen watched it for a while, but didn't see it for the time being.
But at this moment, a certain system boss doesn't care about what he already has, or what he doesn't need at the moment.
All he cares about is the seed shop......
He searched for it for a long time, but he couldn't find the kind of shop that sold seeds and fertilizers that he remembered...
The agricultural and sideline products sold on the street are closer to fruits, and there are basically no cotton seeds and soybean seeds he wants.
Just when he was about to give up, a scene suddenly appeared on the street, which attracted his attention.
From a corner of the street, a group of people came out from this side of the street carrying a wooden board with a humanoid object covered with a red cloth.
In addition, there are people with strange patterns painted on their faces and bodies on both sides doing strange dance moves to follow, and there are four drummers in the same costume beating drums in response to the front and back of the team.
After walking into the crowd, someone from nowhere shouted, "It's you, the monster, who bewitched my father!"
Then a few people emerged from the crowd, and under the leadership of a man, they rushed towards the humanoid object covered with red cloth.
There was a sudden chaos in the street, and there were many exclamations.
In the chaos, the red cloth was also torn off.
A stone statue familiar to Super Chen was revealed.
Exactly the one seen in that saltstone cave in the salt tribe...
But, it seems a little different.
Chen Chao took a closer look, yes, the facial features became clearer!
Just as he was looking at the stone statue, he could clearly see that the corner of the stone statue's mouth rose slightly for a moment!
Although it only lasted for a moment, Super Chen was very sure that the stone statue was smiling!
And, laugh at yourself!
it…!
I noticed my gaze!
