March 25, 1630.

In the western part of the Eastern continent, the border town at the bottom of the Pamir Mountains, this town did not have much time to be established. It has only been built since the Chinese Empire ruled here. It is only used for nearby herders to trade daily necessities, as well as infrastructure hospitals and schools.

Just early in the morning, the herdsmen facing the rising sun were already riding their mounts or on tricycles, and transport cars slowly gathered towards the town.

The times change so quickly can be seen clearly from this town. Most herders still follow the tradition of riding horses to the market. Only a small number of wealthy people have learned to use more convenient means of transportation, although this number is not large.

The herdsmen are now very satisfied and have no nobles on their heads, especially when Jiannu moved from east to west, they have completely damaged the grasslands in the north of the desert. Then another Han emperor ruled the land. They actually have no big ideas, but they just found that their current life is completely different from before.

Every household has a pasture allocated to each person's head. If you raise enough livestock, you can also contract another pasture. Although this part will be taxed, herders are always used to wrapping a large piece of land and raising more cattle and sheep.

The difference in life is the difference in income. People buy wool that was completely useless in the past regularly, and the price is satisfying them. People buy cattle and sheep every day, and it is said that it is sold to the inland Central Plains region.

This is just a year, and the herdsmen's pockets are no longer shrunk. They know that their wealth can afford cars and mobile phones, or other household appliances, which are standard for the Empire's marriage, but the traditions that have been invincible for thousands of years cannot be changed in one go.

But what they didn't get used to is that in the future, they and their descendants would seem to have to settle in a certain place. Moreover, their own pastures and the contracted pastures must protect the water and soil, and not let too many livestock harm the pastures into deserts. Although it is difficult, they can only try their best to control the number of cattle and sheep. With the guidance of Han technical officials, it is believed that there will be no difficulty in doing this.

What they didn't get used to most was that the children at home had to learn knowledge in the town school and also had to learn Chinese language. After a while, they suddenly realized that they no longer knew their kids.

The only thing they are worried about now is that there are millions of monster troops not far from the north. According to travelers coming there, there are rumbling cannons every day, and it continues day by day. In the coldest winter, the scale is only a little smaller.

According to the newspapers of the empire, it seems that the number of people in our own nation has decreased unprecedentedly, especially the compatriots on the grasslands of Central Asia and northern desert. Although they are different tribes from themselves, their ancestors are actually the same group of people, and now most of them have disappeared.

The herdsmen are very loyal. The long-term grassland life and tradition have allowed them to know the principle of the survival of the weak since childhood. Without others, they can only be slaves or die. Although the emperor who ruled them this time made them unexpectedly kind, their traditional concepts will not change because of this.

Of course, for the monsters that are so close, the strong herders who think they are willing to do their best to the empire? Maybe, they are just obeying the strong.

Perhaps those who have entered the school or joined the army will be allowed to completely change their traditional concepts after they come back, and no longer simply obey the strong, but sincerely obey this empire that gives them happiness and well-being.

The first thing the adults did when they came to the town was to hand over the bags of daily necessities to the children in the school. Because they were far enough from the family grassland, the children did not have many opportunities to go home. The school provided the children with abundant food, but parents always felt that they were not enough and always thought that their own things were the best. Although they had never seen many things that their children ate.

Farewell to the children who are increasingly unfamiliar, the herdsmen then go to do their own business, and of course they also have to enjoy some fine wine and delicious food. There are more and more shops in the town, and the scope is getting wider and wider, and their choices are also getting more and more. Of course, they have to sell their own cattle and sheep.

“Woo woo…”

There were not many passengers at the nearby small train station, and the trains after train did not stop at this small station recently. According to residents of the town, spring is in full bloom, and there may be wars in the west and north.

Maybe this is a good thing. Of course, under the premise of winning a battle, monsters must stay away from themselves. No one likes dark-skinned animals with horns.

"Boss, give me a small generator set and air conditioner. It's still comfortable in the town. You don't have to generate electricity by yourself. The cold winter is too difficult, and the hot summer is coming soon. Air conditioning may be the thing we need most."

"Hulan Tuan, did your family finally agree to your purchase? You are really not like a warrior, and you are still considered by your mother at home."

"If the one in your house is also a flower in a nearby tribe, maybe you are less like a warrior than me."

Hulanchou is not ashamed of it. The shop owner comes from their tribe, and anyone who is not familiar with it is.

"I just can't understand why she fell in love with you, a big black man? And she was huddled at home and didn't join the army. Don't you want to make some contributions to the empire to make her live a better life? As long as you make some military achievements, the large grassland will belong to you, and if you can be awarded a title, there will be more."

"Maybe I have to learn from you, give up the pasture and live in the town, so I can join the army without worries and see the trains outside the city. It seems that this time has not stopped. The war is coming, and it is time for me to be a warrior."

Hulantuo'er looked at the train passing by from time to time outside the city and said that he was in his twenties, and he was eager to make achievements even more. At least this empire made him feel very good at the moment.

"Then go and let the flower in your house be your companion with the weeds in my house. I believe she will live a good life."

Changes in the times will also make some traditional herders choose to live in the city, which is inevitable.

Everyone is busy with their own affairs. Although it doesn’t take much time to go to the city now, it’s always troublesome, right?

"Look, what is that?"

At some point, people discovered countless things with tail flames in the distance, quickly passed over their heads, and then rushed westward.

"Is it the kind of big fireworks that the Han people set off during the New Year?"

Yes, and the fireworks are big enough and beautiful enough, but monsters will definitely not like them.
