The days when I was an obstetrician and gynecologist in Chang'an

The twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month is the small year.

In Annam (today's Vietnam), Champa City, it rains continuously in winter.

In Zhancheng City, thousands of miles away from Chang'an City, which is known as a good house for the Shang Tang people by the local black and thin aborigines, Jiang Yijun and Bi Qionglan sat opposite each other at the table by the window on the second floor.

In fact, this so-called good house is just a one-two-story wooden building. It was built by the Minister of Industry Langguan who followed from Chang'an and his craftsmen.

There is really no shortage of good wood in the mountains here in Champa, and there are really a lot of good beams for two people to hug.

Jiang Yiyun and Bi Qionglan had no idea how much of a disturbance the Zhezi they sent to Chang'an a few months ago would cause in the court.

"The climate here is really suitable for farming. Look, it's the end of the twelfth lunar month, and it's only raining a little bit."

While talking, Bi Qionglan reached out of the window to catch the rain from the sky.

The cool rain fell on her palms. Bi Qionglan looked out the window at the greenery that was completely different from Chang'an. In such a festive day, she still felt a little homesick.

Jiang Yijun pushed the cake plate on the table towards Bi Qionglan, "Grandma Bi, I know you are thinking about your family.

No, try it. This is made by a young disciple brought by the master chef from Xiangguiji in Chang'an City. Even if the whole city is full, I can only have a plate like this here.

This is because I have some friendship with Commander Xue, and I asked him to bring a pastry chef with him if he could do it.

Now the pastry chef has entered King Annan's palace. If we want to have such a bite in the future, we don't know when. "

After saying this, Jiang Yijun reached out and took out the cake on the plate and started eating it.

No matter how old Bi Qionglan is, it's just a temporary emotion.

She smiled at Jiang Yiyun, "Okay, I've benefited from you.

I think if you hadn't been a little girl today, you wouldn't have been willing to take out this plate, right? "

After the two joked for a while, Bi Qionglan looked at the rain that had become lighter. She turned back to Jiang Yiyun and asked, "I wonder if the two of us will reach Chang'an now?"

Did the saint know it?

What would the officials above the court think?

Do you support our proposal? Or object? "

After taking a sip of tea soup, Jiang Yijun looked at the worried Bi Qionglan and replied decisively: "Grandma Bi, do you need to say this?

Not to mention that the saint is one of our own, even the purple- and red-robed officials above the court, how could they possibly object?

"Grandma Bi," Jiang Yijun stood up and came to the window and pointed to the land south of the wooden building, "our experimental fields were built by you and me."

In the past two years, winter has turned to spring, and there have been three crops a year. We have led them to work hard. You don't know the results?

If the people take food as their first priority and have enough to eat, how can the world be unstable? "

Turning around, Jiang Yijun sat down with a smile and comforted the anxious Bi Qionglan: "Grandma Bi, don't worry.

Over the past year or so, do you think those maritime merchants who came with the fleet are just businessmen? "

Jiang Yijun shook his head and continued confidently: "Many of them are the family servants of those purple- and red-robed officials. They only believe in the words of their own people.

Champa alone has such a large area of ​​land for cultivation and grain production, minerals that have yet to be explored, timber unique to this area, rare treasures, and many wild-growing herbs. Who would not be tempted?

Not to mention the port.

Grandma Bi, you must have only stayed in this city and never been to the port during your break, right?

Do you know what they use as trading currency there? "

Bi Qionglan really didn't know this. Although she was sent to farm thousands of miles away, Bi Qionglan was still the female official of Sinong Temple. They, the official people of the Tang Dynasty, still followed the rules of Chang'an here. Or take one day off every ten days.

Every time he took a break, the most Bi Qionglan could do was stroll around in Champa City. How could anyone who had seen Chang'an City take a look at Champa, a small town with only one main street at that time? Therefore, Bi Qionglan stayed at her residence most of the time. She really didn't know what the situation was like in Champa Port.

“Porcelain, silk, and medicine.

Of course, gold and silver are also major monetary payments.

However, the local people and merchants from Tianzhu (now India) and Dashiyy (now Arabia) still recognize our porcelain more.

Those people don’t know how much they have earned?

When the banquet is held later, Grandma Bi, you have to take a good look at them. They only flatter us.

Moreover, their news channels cannot be faster than our official ones. Maybe someone will already get the news before our report is submitted to the saint.

If we hurry, we should have sent people by boat to come south. "

Before Bi Qionglan could discuss what Jiang Yijun said with her, there was a knock on the door.

"Auntie, General Qian has sent soldiers to pick us up."

In this way, Bi Qionglan and Jiang Yiyun stopped talking, checked each other's official uniforms to see if they were secure, and then went down the wooden building together.

Besides Bi Qionglan's eldest son who had been following her, there was also a female deputy of Jiang Yiyun waiting on the first floor.

The four of them all wore standard official robes, but there were some differences in color and details due to different ranks.

The highest-ranking among the four was naturally Jiang Yijunlai, who was wearing a fifth-grade crimson official robe. She looked at the gift that the female officer behind her had already carried in her hands, and then she raised her legs and stepped forward to greet the soldiers waiting outside the door.

The place they were going to was the most prosperous building in Champa at this time, King Annan's palace in Champa.

As for why we went to the banquet?

This number one was naturally due to the fact that King Annan bowed his head to Emperor Wu of the Tang Dynasty four years ago and paid tribute and silver.

The second thing is that in the past few years, there have been too many people from the Tang Dynasty coming to Annan, especially because of the Champa Port.

Not to mention a large ship equipped with artillery, it would be an absolute overlord at sea.

Not only that, the Imperial Guards and Guards that were sent later could fight as soon as they landed. A Tang Dao had killed many people at first.

Therefore, even if it was not subtle, it was just to please the Tang people. During this Little New Year Festival, didn't the Annan Palace just hold a banquet to entertain the respectable Tang people in Champa?

Although Bi Qionglan and Jiang Yijun are female officials, one can farm and the other can make fertilizer to increase grain production, but they are more important than the Lang officials sent by Honglu Temple.

Therefore, General Qian, the Tang garrison who occupied the city, specially sent two teams of soldiers to protect them during their trip.

Of course, in addition to the people from the Tang Dynasty officials, those Tang people who followed the officials, whether they were large merchants or a dozen small chambers of commerce, were also invited.

This banquet was really interesting, because Champa thought that since they invited people from the Tang Dynasty, they might as well invite them all, so people from Tianzhu, Dashi people, and Zhenla people also came.

The most surprising thing is that there are actually several businessmen from Silla and Japan among them.

Thank you Xiaoer for supporting 100 starting coins. Thank you very much for your support and encouragement!
