Chapter 272 Showing the Modern World
Chapter 272 Showing the Modern World
The next day, Song Yaoyao couldn't get up again because she watched TV series too late.
Song Yaoyao was still pulled out of the bed by Bitao and Ying Huiyan.
Gua Gua: [Host, I reminded you so many times yesterday that it was time to go to bed, but you just wouldn’t listen.
You always say that you will go to sleep after watching this episode, but after watching this episode, you click on the next one. Now you can’t get up, right? 】
Song Yaoyao: [It’s been a long time since I last watched a TV series. Even if it’s a soap opera, I still think it’s good.]
Guagua: [It’s not that I don’t allow you to watch, but there has to be a limit.]
Song Yaoyao: [Guagua, when did you become a nanny? You're even more nagging than my mom.]
Guagua: [……]
Gua Gua was completely broken down by the words from the nanny system and stopped talking.
It’s really a good idea to treat it like a donkey’s liver and lungs!
Gua Gua was angry. It turned around and turned its butt towards Song Yaoyao. Unfortunately, Song Yaoyao couldn't see its action at all.
Song Yaoyao said to Bitao:
"Bitao, go get me a basin of cold water."
"Miss, what are you..."
"Go."
After a while, Bitao brought a basin of cold water.
Song Yaoyao walked over and just as she put her hand into the basin, she shuddered when it touched the cold water. She scooped a handful of water onto her face and became completely sober.
After Song Yaoyao had packed up, Minister Song came to call her.
This morning, the emperor said with a sad face:
"I received a letter from the Northwest yesterday.
The weather in the northwest this year is extremely cold. Heavy snow has been falling for months, freezing many livestock to death. I'm afraid the weak elderly and children won't survive this winter either...
My dear ministers, do you have any good ideas to help the people in the northwest survive this natural disaster?"
No one spoke below. After a moment, someone stood up and said:
"It's snowing in the northwest for months. We should open the warehouses and stockpile grain. Also, we need to clear the roads..."
"We also need to prepare warm clothes and bedding to send to the northwest..."
……
At this moment, Song Yaoyao's voice rang out:
[Guagua, did you hear that? Cold disaster! ]
Guagua: [I heard it.]
The emperor and his ministers were all shocked. Guagua is back! How great!
As long as Gua Gua comes back, he will chat with Princess Jiahe, and they will be able to hear what they are thinking. Maybe they will find a way to solve the cold disaster!
The conversation between Gua Gua and Song Yaoyao continues.
Guagua continued:
[If this kind of disaster happened in modern times, the country would immediately send out a road clearing team to clear the blocked road.
Secondly, they would definitely consider whether the people had run out of food because the snow had blocked the mountains for so long. The state would open its warehouses and distribute food to the people for free.
We will also prepare cotton clothes and quilts and send them to the disaster-stricken areas...
I'll find you a video on this, let's take a look! 】
A few seconds later, a scene that no one had ever seen appeared on the screen above Song Yaoyao's head.
I saw a giant, strange-looking iron lump appear on the screen, and there seemed to be someone inside the iron lump.
I saw the iron lump moving slowly forward. Wherever it passed, the snow was shoveled up, and then the snow was pushed to both sides of the road.
Everyone looked at the screen in surprise. What on earth was this?
Song Yaoyao's voice rang out at this time:
[I recognize this one, it’s a snowplow.
A snowplow has a plow blade to remove snow and a guide bar to push the snow and ice to the side of the road.
The cutting edge of the coulter can be in contact with the road surface, or the cutting edge can be raised a short distance by the casters.
The plow blade is usually mounted on the front of the snowplow, but can also be mounted on the side or underneath the snowplow.
Plow type snow removal vehicles are mainly used for high-intensity snow removal operations in large open areas...] What is a plow type snow removal vehicle? Is this a vehicle?
Everyone was shocked? How could this cart move forward without a horse pulling it?
This lump of iron is so huge, how does it move forward on its own?
These are the questions on everyone's mind right now.
This plow-type snowplow is absolutely amazing at removing snow!
Also, Princess Jiahe just introduced the snow plow, but they didn't understand what she was saying at all!
Everyone watched the video intently.
Guagua: [Yes, this is a plow-type snowplow. In addition to this type of snowplow, there are also brush-type snowplows, turbojet snowblowers, aircraft engine snowblowers, dual-powered snowplows, pickup trucks for snow removal and salt spreading, and road-rail dual-purpose snowplows...]
Afterwards, Guagua explained in detail the functions of these snowplows and which snowplow to use under what circumstances.
Everyone was even more shocked. In Princess Jiahe's previous life, there were so many types of snowplows?
What kind of wonderful world is this?
Song Yaoyao: [Guagua, now is not the time to talk about snowplows. Let's talk about how to solve the cold disaster in the northwest.]
Gua Gua: [I just saw the snowplow and introduced it a little more.
If we encounter such a cold disaster in modern times, the solution has been mentioned above.
Let’s take a closer look at the video. 】
Song Yaoyao: [Yes.]
In the video, vehicles loaded with supplies drove to the disaster area...
A group of men in camouflage uniforms were distributing supplies to the people...
The clothing of these people is completely different from that of people of their time. They are dressed very smartly, but they all look very decent and good-looking.
In particular, their hair lengths vary. The men who wear the same uniform have very short hair...
This, this, this...
In ancient times, cutting hair had four meanings:
1. It means to see through the world and want to become a monk.
2. Indicates a short separation between husband and wife.
A couple is also called "Kie Fa". When they are separated for a short time, they cut a bunch of hair for each other to express their longing for each other.
3. To express that one should cut off hair and stop having any thoughts.
When one loses his or her lover, his or her heart is dead. One commits suicide for love, cuts off all thoughts, and is willing to follow the one he or she loves.
4. As a punishment.
Our bodies and hair are given by our parents, so we must cherish them and not destroy them at will.
Cutting off hair thus became an insulting punishment, considered disrespectful to parents and a violation of filial piety.
This punishment does not harm the person physically, but it is a great punishment on the soul.
As everyone watched the video, they saw that regardless of gender, their hair had different styles and lengths, which the officials present could not understand at all.
In Princess Jiahe's previous life, there seemed to be no such sayings about cutting hair...
Song Yaoyao: [Wow, I see the soldier.
They are indeed the cutest people in the world. No matter what happens, they are always at the forefront. They deserve our respect and admiration...】
Guagua: [Well, they are indeed the cutest people.
Host, you were the cutest person in your previous life, just like them. 】
