Chapter 1718 Chapter 296: The tide rises and falls
Time goes by and never goes back, the past can only be remembered.
For most people, if they can live in a particularly good era, there is little time to remember.
Because there are more and more new things and getting better and better, the old ones should be thrown into the music bucket.
But the tragedy of every era is that it has many facets, and it is impossible for every facet to be better.
So people will start to reminisce. What they reminisce about is not the past suffering, but the shining beauty of hard work.
Just like the aboriginals of Wushuang City, they occasionally climb to the top of the mountain and then overlook the Wanli Lake and talk about the beauty of the past.
At that time, Xiling was so rich that there was even a street paved with gold in Beicheng.
Whenever the Wancheng treasure ship returns, as long as you are lucky enough, you will be able to pick up wealth that will not be spent in a lifetime.
There are also the girls in Tianxianglou and Miaoyinfang. If they can take a look, they will be able to teach their body and soul for a few days, and once the spring breeze is over, they will be able to live and die immediately without regrets.
There is farther!
Old people will raise their hands, just like pointing thousands of miles away.
In autumn, the golden wheat ears spread out on the Lingjiang Plain, like waves with invisible ends, three crops a year, and every harvest, the owner of Xiling will recruit farmers and workers aggressively.
Even if the farmers and workers at the bottom of Lingjiang, as long as they work hard for a few days, they don't have to worry about not having the money to buy food, and they can still eat meat every three to five, and their lives are better than they are now in Wushuang City.
Businessmen from all over Longzhou will stay in Xiling because the wealth here is incalculable. Legend has it that there are several auction houses that can sell more than one billion gold collections in one night, and the money is paid by Xiling ladies.
It is a place like a real paradise, self-sufficient, and after the five-acre land decrees were issued, all the people have a greater rush.
But now, Lingjiang no longer has such a paradise place, even Chaochang seems lifeless.
Most of the old people’s nostalgia are unbelievable, because if the image in their mouths comes true, then they should be a middle-aged farmer, not a middle-aged laborer, or a poor laborer who has contaminated the habits of the rich.
After all, it is difficult for people to imagine scenes they have never seen before, so children who grew up in Wushuang City would never believe that there would be a big ship that desperately throws coins on a voyage, and so much.
They will follow up when they are curious, but when the elders who were flying just now heard the younger ones asking for details, their expressions suddenly changed, scolded and cursed.
This must be a guilty conscience, so every time like this, the younger generation should listen to joy. After all, the facts and legends are too inconsistent, and bragging becomes an explanation of the truth.
The old people in Xiling can naturally understand the helplessness and ridicule in the eyes of the younger generations, but how can they defend themselves.
Although they don't know much about the truth, they still know the simple truth for the Venerable, no matter how evil the legendary general Longxi Alliance is.
In the hearts of these old people in Xiling, the Wancheng Treasure Ship is a ship full of happiness, and the sailors on it are all Xiling's heroes. Only in this way can it be regarded as a clear grudge and a clear conscience.
With the increasing number of craftsmen entering Wushuang City, more and more residents are climbing.
Because I can’t get a job, I just don’t go to the city wall and sit at the root of the city wall. I get a few foods, sloshing up the mountain with a small bottle of dirty wine in threes and twos, boasting and eating vegetables, all day and afternoon .
Many fresh-minded craftsmen discovered the direction of the inner city residents and set up stalls along the mountain road, selling snacks and wine, and turning the road up the mountain into a small town with no end. Come, it attracted more people up the mountain.
Since the peasant disciples rented out all the vegetable stalls, they have become idlers.
Although they have nothing to do, the well-established wealth of the early years is enough for them to eat and drink. These days, they are either playing cards or drinking on the mountain. As for the scenery, they probably don't watch it.
After all, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, that's the same thing.
It’s just that I don’t know what’s going on today. Several peasant disciples who play cards in Banshan Pavilion always look at Lingjiang from time to time, and then turn back after watching for a while.
Finally, someone couldn't hold back anymore, put the Pai Gow in his hand, and asked the card friends uncertainly: "I don't know if it's wrong, do you think that the water level of the river seems to be lower? "
It was like Daigo's initiation. This period awakened a few brand-name friends. Several people clamored that they had discovered it, and then they talked about it.
...
The water level of Lingjiang is getting lower
There is nothing surprising about things like this. The ebb and flow of the tide is the normal state of the river, and the fisherman who spends his life on the water all year round summed up a set of laws about the ebb and flow of the tide.
The first important law of this rising tide is rain. If there is plenty of rain, the river is bound to rise, and if it rains continuously, there should even be floods.
And the second most important law is the stars in the sky, especially the two moons and the sun. After thousands of years of groping, most fishermen can now see the smell of tide from the sky.
For example, if the double stars are in the same position, then there will be a wave back; if the double stars are wrong, there will be a wave; and there will be a small tide on the first string and a small tide on the last string.
Now in June, it is the retrospective day when the two stars are in the same position. With abundant rain, the water level should be soaring, but how did it drop?
The fishermen are puzzled, and this matter has become a strange thing to talk about in the streets of Wushuang City.
If this happened in other places, then the people talked about the horror stories of the coming of natural disasters or demons. At the same time, there will be some goddesses and sticks from ten miles and eight villages. Coming out, the gods babbled and preached lies such as those who believe in us will live, and those who are unfortunate will suffer.
But Wushuang City is different. If the people don't understand, they will surround the bulletin board in front of the city hall and ask the city hall to come out and give an explanation.
So far, the city hall has given a lot of explanations for many inexplicable things, and these seemingly useless things have cultivated trust between the people and the city hall.
As a result, people did not panic about the weird incident of the water level falling during the tide, but hoped that the city hall would give an explanation.
But what can the city hall say? Because of the massive number of craftsmen entering the city recently, these people have been very busy.
Several municipal officials in charge of household registration have not returned home since last month, and they can smell the stench three feet away from them. Of course it is unrealistic to expect such a group of people to know that the tide is ebb and flow.
But since the people put forward a reasonable request, the city hall naturally has to find a way to meet it. It just so happens that some of the wind media that Yun’s return are now employed in the wind media company, just to make up for the shortage of wind media personnel at this time, and took the task to investigate. .
