Chapter 972: Big Cooling
At this time, the team sent by Sheng Zhan to convey the imperial edict had arrived in Yunzhou, and the leader was none other than Yang Chaofan.
"Master Imperial Master, we are about to enter the mountains, but the weather is getting colder. Should we buy more warm clothes?" A young eunuch asked shivering with cold, resisting the urge to rub his hands in front of Yang Chaofan.
Yang Chaofan held a hand warmer in his hands and looked up at the bottomless mountains. Then he turned his gaze to the northwest and said, "Send the order down. Rest here for a day, buy some winter clothes and dried meat, and then set off for Chenzhou the day after tomorrow."
"Ah, Chenzhou!" the young eunuch was obviously stunned. "Aren't we going to pass through this mountain?"
Besides, the six states in the northwest are in the hands of King Zhao. If they go there openly, they will be killed by King Zhao's men.
Yang Chaofan said calmly, "Just change your clothes and pretend to be a merchant caravan. It's cold today, and the northwest needs warm clothes and food."
"Uh, do you mean we should purchase as many of these things as possible before we set off?" the young eunuch confirmed cautiously.
Yang Chaofan nodded and said nothing more.
If they can't even do this, he might as well go to Ezhou himself.
"Okay, okay, I'll do it right away." The young eunuch quickly retreated.
He also needs to buy himself some warm clothes. This damn weather is too cold!
Shen Qingqian and the others did not expect that Yang Chaofan would disguise himself as a merchant caravan and go to Chenzhou, but because they had a backup plan, the people from the Shadow Guard Division proceeded according to the original plan after receiving the order, and made all kinds of obstacles for this team.
The person who came to deliver the message and handle other matters was Xu Feng. His subordinates asked him, "Boss, why don't we reveal their identities so that King Zhao's people can deal with them."
"If their identities are exposed, they will be more cautious, which will be difficult for us to take action. Now, they will just think it was an accident," Xu Feng said calmly. "We can wait until they are about to enter Chenzhou before exposing their identities."
The people below suddenly understood and gave him a thumbs-up, saying, "Boss, you've really thought it through."
Xu Feng didn't react much. To him, what his master wanted was to delay this team on the road as long as possible, so he would try his best to do it.
"The Official History of the Great Jin Dynasty" records: In the winter of the second year of Yufeng, the temperature dropped sharply, and heavy snow fell. Neither people nor animals could move. Within a month, except for Ezhou, countless people froze to death in various places, and the whole country was in mourning.
While people all over the Jin Dynasty were shivering with cold, the people of Ezhou were busy as hell.
"Hurry, hurry, this batch of hot pot is ready, send it to Lanjiang County as soon as possible!"
"Li Lao Er, you haven't eaten yet? Go add coal to the boiler! I wonder how you're going to explain to Lord Zheng if you leave everyone in the cold!"
"Hey, who's that? Why are you running so fast? I haven't finished yet."
In a small village outside the city of northern Hubei, people gathered in a large house built by the government. Because the boiler was burning, those who needed to run around to do things were sweating.
Li Hezhou came here today to pick up goods and to see if there were any problems with the boilers in the surrounding villages. As soon as he entered the house, he was shocked by the busy scene inside.
A month ago, with northern Hubei as the center, the government began recruiting people to mass-produce beibaire, and also recruited many workers to mine copper, iron and coal for pay.
The Northern Hubei Chamber of Commerce also organized various businesses to issue official tasks to the handmade manufacturers below to produce various types of thermal insulation products.
"My son is sick again, and it's exhausting me. I really want to update more, but there are so many things going on. I really want to update more, and I won't update less if I can."
