- In the evening, after more than two weeks, the airship departing from Karur finally arrived at Yiyang City, Huaiyuan County, Jinyun State. ¡ò¡òThe name of the Huaiyuan Hall of the Zhang family is the name of the county, and the entire county is the family territory of the Zhang family.
For the first time, Zhang Tie felt what family is. From Zhang Zhitian's introduction on the airship, Zhang Tie knew that in the entire Huaiyuan County, there were more than 200,000 members of the Zhang family with the blood of Duke Huaiyuan. Strictly speaking, there were only a few people named Zhang on the airship. Among them, including the airship captain, first mate, engine room technician, Zhang Zhitian, an ordinary crew member, and Zhang Tie, if you look at the family tree, the five people are definitely relatives, because everyone has the blood of Duke Huaiyuan. , just from different branches of Huaiyuantang.
At that time, Duke Huaiyuan had eight wives and more than forty children. The clansmen of each of the eight wives gathered in one city, Yiyang City for the eldest wife, Xincheng for the second wife, Stargazing City for the third, and Stargazing City for the fourth. Qihai City, the five-room Fubo City, the six-room Yunzhou City, the seven-room Jinhai City, and the eight-room Tai'an City. The bloodline of Duke Huaiyuan in these eight cities has reproduced for hundreds of years, and it has become like this today. scale.
Among these eight cities, Yiyang City is not only the county seat of Huaiyuan County, but also the political, economic and cultural center of the Zhang family in Huaiyuantang.
Yiyang City is a city close to the sea. The prosperity and scale of the entire city are more than ten times that of Black Flame City. There are 21 million people living in and around the city. Yiyang Port is not only The largest port in Jinyun Kingdom is in the entire Hawaii subcontinent, and Yiyang Port ranks among the top three in terms of annual cargo throughput.
If Zhang Tie's previous impression of the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang was only based on other people's introductions, then when the airship approached Yiyang City, the power and heritage of the Zhang family of Huaiyuantang suddenly became like this city. Standing in front of Zhang Tie, Zhang Tie felt his own insignificance and the strength of this family.
In the distance, there are densely packed ships on the harbor and on the sea, and in the sky, there are all kinds of airships coming and going like crucian carp crossing the river. To Zhang Tie, it was just like the scene in a painting.
When the passengers on the deck who came from Karur City saw this scene, many of them exclaimed in surprise. Many of the passengers shouted in Chinese that they were not very proficient in, "Yiyang" Yiyang"
"Are you planning to settle down in Yiyang?" Zhang Zhitian asked Zhang Tie.
"I probably have to go back to Jinhai City first. I don't know if I will be in Jinhai or not in the future!" Zhang Tie told Zhang Zhitian after thinking about it.
"When I come back this time, my three-year internship points on the airship are enough. I plan to sign up for the family's airship army and become a real soldier. I will be a captain in the future!" Zhang Zhitian said confidently.
"Then I wish you all the best" Zhang Tie smiled.
During this period, Zhang Tie already roughly knew some of the situation on the airship. Many young people under the age of 18 like Zhang Zhitian are interns on airships. This is the talent training mechanism of the Zhang family. For most teenagers in Huaiyuan County, the most rebellious age is between 15 and 18 years old. period of time. Most people do not spend leisurely time in school, but work hard in various industries as interns, get in touch with society, and accumulate qualifications and experience. Determine your future development direction, and you will not be considered an adult until you are crowned at the age of 18. You can enjoy many social rights and can formally join the army and be appointed to formal positions and have formal jobs.
¡°Compared with the factory-assembly-line talent education system in Black Flame City, the education system of the Chinese in this era is much more stringent, for young lads like Zhang Tie who don¡¯t turn sixteen until after the Chinese New Year. In Huaiyuantang, there was no possibility of formally joining the army. Let alone becoming an officer.
"I heard from the first mate that your ability to shoot down those iron-beaked ibises with the crossbow arrows for the first time seemed to be the awakening of ancestral blood related to throwing skills?" Zhang Zhitian looked at Zhang Tie with burning eyes. , eyes full of envy.
Zhang Tie smiled bitterly. This was due to the difference in cultural background he had been exposed to since childhood. This problem that had troubled him for a long time seemed to be known to many people in Huaiyuantang. He only showed it once and was guessed. "It should be so. I didn't know what was going on at first, but suddenly, my throwing ability suddenly became very accurate. It was only before I returned to Huaiyuantang that I knew it was a Chinese The performance of awakening the ancestral bloodline! By the way, are any of your friends the same as me? "
"There was one, that was a classmate in my class at school. When the school held a sports meeting, his ancestral bloodline suddenly awakened. His archery skills were mediocre at first, but that year he became the best archer in the school sports meeting. champion!"
"Is his awakened ancestral bloodline related to bows and arrows?"
"Yes!" Zhang Zhitian glanced at Zhang Tie strangely, "Don't you know that one of the two strongest ancestral bloodlines of the Zhang family is the bloodline of the bow and arrow system?"
Zhang Tie smiled sheepishly, "I really don't know!"
¡¡
The airship finally landed at an airship base of the Changfeng Merchant Group.
After saying goodbye to a few friends he met on the airship, Zhang Tie took a simple luggage and stepped off the airship like the passengers who came to Yiyang City for the first time. Zhang Tie was wondering whether leaving the airship base would be a good idea. When Zhang Tie bought a train ticket and returned to Jinhai City, he had already seen his brother. There were two men in black uniforms with him. There was a car behind the three of them.
"Brother!" Zhang Tie was excited and hurriedly walked up three steps at a time. The two brothers hugged each other hard. Zhang Yang was also a little excited. The two brothers separated this time, although it was only a few months ago. , but it feels like a reunion after separation. During this period, both Zhang Tie and Zhang Tie's family have had too many things happen and have experienced too many twists and turns.
"How is dad? Is mom recovered?" As soon as the two people separated, Zhang Tie asked two questions at once.
Zhang Yang looked at Zhang Tie carefully from the beginning, and then smiled, "Dad is back. I know that you will be back safely soon, and my mother's illness is also cured!"
Zhang Tie was overjoyed. He didn't expect that in the few days since he boarded the airship, the thing that worried him the most would be solved. This is truly a happy event worth celebrating, "Dad is back?"
"Well, let's discuss the details when we get home!" Zhang Yang winked at Zhang Tie, and then introduced the two men in uniforms beside him, "These two are the officials of the Huaiyuantang Zongren Pavilion!"
The two men nodded to Zhang Tie calmly.
After being introduced by Zhang Zhitian on the airship, Zhang Tie already knew what the Zongren Pavilion probably did. When he came back this time, he must first clear his identity and confirm his identity with the Zhang family, otherwise. His identity when he came to Jinyun Country was definitely still the murderer wanted by the Norman Empire's secret police.
After a few introductions, the four people got in the car. Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang sat in the back seat of the car, and the two Zongren Pavilion officials sat in the front. The car drove all the way out of the airship base.
Zhang Tie was sitting in the car, briefly talking to his brother about all the things that happened when he arrived at the Karur War Zone after leaving Black Flame City, while looking at the things outside the car with wide eyes. Sighing at the prosperity and prosperity of this city.
The road is busy with traffic, pedestrians are rubbing shoulders with each other, and the high-rise buildings on the roadside are scattered next to each other. Looking along the way, there are Chinese billboards everywhere on both sides of the road, and among the pedestrians on the road. Although there are people of all skin colors, more than 95% are Chinese with black hair and eyes. The sounds of laughter and conversation among passers-by at the roadside shops and children playing around were all in Chinese. Such a scene made Zhang Tie, who had lived in Black Flame City since he was a child, inexplicably relax. A feeling that came from his blood A sense of belonging arises spontaneously.
The so-called Zongren Pavilion. Of course it is not as simple as a loft, this is the headquarters of the clan management organization of the Huaiyuantang Zhang family. In fact, it is a square building with a height of more than 20 stories. There are strict guards at the entrance of the building. The reason why the Zongrentang people brought Zhang Tie here is to complete the final confirmation of Zhang Tie's identity. This The confirmation process was beyond Zhang Tie's expectation.
Zhang Tie was taken to a room in the building. There was a strange black crystal on the table in the middle of the room. The crystal was inlaid on a silver-white base with strange runes. Under personal supervision, the official from the Zongren Pavilion who brought Zhang Tie back pricked Zhang Tie's finger with a needle and asked Zhang Tie to drop the blood from his finger onto the crystal. The black crystal began to light up. , the entire identification process is completed.
After completing this process, Zhang Tie took another photo here and filled out two forms. After sitting in the lounge with his brother and waiting for less than ten minutes, a clerk who brought Zhang Tie took a complicatedly carved The patterned rectangular certificate was given to Zhang Tie.
Most of this certificate is made of metal, but the front of the certificate is inlaid with a transparent crystal. Under the crystal is a portrait of Zhang Tie that he just took. Under the crystal portrait, Zhang Tie's name is also engraved. The workmanship Very beautiful and special. On the back of the certificate, the four characters "Huaiyuan Zhang" are engraved.
"This thing is your identification. You have to keep it. If you lose it, the consequences will be serious!"
"How serious is it?"
"I will be fined one hundred gold coins, hard labor for half a year, and 20 family contribution points will be deducted!"
Zhang Tie took a slight breath of air-conditioning, one hundred gold coins, that is 2500 grams of gold, not to mention half a year of hard labor, even those 20 family contribution points seemed to be quite rare.
"Is this thing more valuable than gold?" Zhang Tie asked.
The officer who gave the certificate to Zhang Tie smiled lightly and said, "There are seven precious alloys used in your identity certificate. Among them, Hailan iron and peacock copper are worth more than ten times that of gold. , there are several secret techniques in the manufacturing process of this ultimatum, which cannot be made by anyone other than Zhang. This ultimatum is extremely difficult to damage, and it cannot be restored after it is damaged. At least in the Hawaiian subcontinent, no one has been able to imitate it. The secret pattern on the certificate contains the metal two-dimensional identification code generated for you by the steam analysis machine in the Zongren Pavilion. That is your unique identity and authority in the family. Do you think this thing is important? "
These words stunned Zhang Tie, "Then let me ask again, what is the family's contribution?"
