Chapter 325 What Do I Need a Cell Phone For?
During the few days that Lin Xinhuan returned home, she told others that Lin Xinhuan went to find food for them. The Zhu family had a secret granary that could provide everyone with food for a year.
First, it can stabilize people's hearts, and second, it can explain why Lin Xinhuan disappears from time to time.
Zhujiazhuang is a century-old family. It is not surprising that they can raise private soldiers and build granaries.
The sequelae is that the people believe that Lin Xinhuan's martial arts skills are even better than Chang Yuan's, and he can move freely among the zombies alone.
Misunderstanding! What a huge misunderstanding! This is the cry from Lin Xinhuan who receives physical training every day.
After dealing with the affairs in Qinghe County, Zhu Linlang couldn't help but return to Zhujiazhuang. She missed Zhujiazhuang all the time, but considering certain situations, she suppressed her anxiety.
"Xin Huan, I want to buy the little box that can transmit sound thousands of miles away!"
Zhu Linlang had little stars in her eyes. If they had the little box, they would be able to know the current situation of their people and wouldn't have to be trapped in Qinghe County and daydream.
A small box? Could it be a cell phone?
"Calling the cell phone, do you want to communicate remotely?"
"I plan to take a team back to the village to investigate the situation. If..." Zhu Linlang paused, bit her lip, and continued, "We need support from the city's troops."
The distance between Zhujiazhuang and Qinghe County is neither close nor far, but it is definitely not a distance that can be reached by running a few steps through the zombie swarm if one wants to communicate.
Communication definitely plays an important role!
Lin Xinhuan shook her head. Zhu Linlang was disappointed. It was not a gentleman's behavior to take away someone's favorites. She knew that if someone wanted to buy her favorite book, she would not sell it to him even if they offered her a fortune.
"I'm sorry to trouble you."
"Mobile phones are more expensive than food, but nowadays everyone has one. It's not because of the price that we won't sell them to you, but because there were no signal base stations in ancient times. Mobile phones are more useless than scrap copper and iron here. They are just decorations that take up space."
Lin Xinhuan explained to her the principle of how mobile phones can communicate over thousands of miles, which involves many fields such as telecommunications technology, mobile communication technology, and signal processing technology, touching on blind spots in knowledge, so she gave a brief description.
Zhu Linlang waved his hands in the mist, as if struggling desperately in the river. To sum up, there is a gap of hundreds of years of development between them, and this is something that they cannot do in their current era.
Realizing the gap between the two dimensions, she felt a sense of urgency. When will the people here be able to live the same life as the people in the modern dimension?
It’s too far to talk about this now; solving the communication problem is a major challenge at present.
"Don't worry, I have the Eye of God and can act as our messenger pigeon to deliver messages."
In places without electricity, the primitive method is still the most effective, so a pure white pigeon rested on Zhu Linlang's shoulder.
Their team was divided into two groups. One group was led by Zhu Linlang, heading towards Zhujiazhuang, and the other group was led by Feiying, staying in Qinghe County.
Feiying and other guards who stayed behind struggled to follow Zhu Linlang. Their master was Zhu Linlang, and no one and nothing was as important as Zhu Linlang, even their former master, Zhu Yuanli, the head of the Zhu family.
"You are our last trump card. Only if you stay in Qinghe County can we feel at ease outside."
Feiying felt that he was entrusted with an important task. In the eyes of his master, he was more important than the captain. He could not keep a straight face and laughed.
"Yes! Feiying promises to complete the task and wait for news from the girl."
Chang Yuan sees through it, but he doesn't say it.
The closer they got to Zhu Family Manor, the more zombies there were on the road. Fortunately, they were very experienced in killing zombies. In addition to the guards who followed Zhu Linlang at the beginning, there were more than a dozen zombie-killing elites who emerged from the common people.
This trip was very dangerous, but the girl agreed to share 20 kilograms of rice and 5 kilograms of pork when she returned to the city!
Meat, meat, meat! Shitou couldn't help but wipe the corners of his mouth. His fingers were a little wet. Before the plague came, they could not eat meat very often. This time, it was thanks to the zombies that they still had meat to eat.
As soon as they heard the news, they pulled Yao Qi to sign up. After all, they were all alone, and if they could come back alive, they could have something good to eat. If they died, they would have lived enough and it would not be a loss!
So the traveling team expanded to more than 30 people, including a cow and a pigeon.
Their food and equipment along the way were placed on wooden carts pulled by fat oxen, which saved the entire team a lot of energy.
Yes, the name of this cow is Fat Cow. It is so tempting and delicious only because when it was seen, it was so thin that only ribs were left. They want the cow to grow more meat so that it can live healthily, so they call it Fat Cow.
Lin Xinhuan nodded: Yes, the fat beef can make dozens of boxes of fat beef.
The further they walked, the more muggy the weather became. Lin Xinhuan looked at the sun, which was even bigger than yesterday, and took out a small electric fan, wishing she could put the fan into the collar of her clothes.
Clothes in ancient times, especially those worn by common people, were very non-breathable, thick and heavy. They were called coarse linen clothes and were not much better than clothes made of hemp rope.
Only the rich and powerful paid attention to the fabrics of their clothes, using cicada-wing-thin gauze, which is so thin and light that it can be considered a work of art today. It can be layered on top of one another to match the temperature.
Even though Zhu Linlang found many of the items she brought with her when she returned later, not many of them were of any use now. For example, none of her clothes were suitable to wear. All of them covered her ankles and restricted her movements.
The clothes she was wearing were found in a cloth shop in Qinghe County. How could they compare to the clothes made in the most prosperous and competitive place in Qing Kingdom?
Lin Xinhuan was better off, she wore clothes made of modern fabrics, but it was late autumn now and the styles she chose were all thick. Who would have known that after just a few days of not coming, Qing Country had gone from late autumn to midsummer.
It shouldn't be called clothes, it should be called a steamer. There is not a breath of wind in the air.
Zhu Linlang, wiping the sweat off her face with her sleeve, took an envious look at the rapidly spinning little thing. Seeing Xin Huan enjoying it so much, she could feel the cool breeze on her face just by looking at it.
Zhu Linlang reached into her sleeves and Lin Xinhuan understood. She leaned over to her ear and asked, "How many do you want?"
"Can you equip the entire team?" Everyone looked sleepy, like cabbages wilted by the sun, with their heads drooped, and even their speed in killing zombies slowed down.
Lin Xinhuan felt the bumps in her hand and looked down: it was a Doucai Chicken Cup!
The cup, which can be held in one hand and is no bigger than a thumb, features a vivid and colorful picture of a rooster and birds playing.
Such skills and painting levels were not cheap in ancient times, let alone in modern times. Even for porcelain of unknown age, wealthy businessmen are willing to spend a lot of money to buy them for their enjoyment.
"Yes, watch me!"
Lin Xinhuan took out a number of broken hats from a large cloth bag on the ox cart. Some were without tops, as if the hats were cut in half, with something inlaid in them that looked like a head that could rotate in Lin Xinhuan's hand.
He personally put one on Zhu Linlang's head to block out the dazzling sunlight in the sky.
