Chapter 50
"Hey, old man, how did he get on the bill, where it is fas.h.i.+onable to buy quality nuts, dry fruits, marshmallow, dry berries and medicinal plants"?
Ate, and now fas.h.i.+onable and sleep! This is me joking... and now we will remove the tablecloth... and I will get you a topographic map. I will show you where you can find good supplies... just about 55 villages... only 12 of them can buy standing dry fruits.
Here, for example, take a dry peach, if you take a white... then there is a lot of rot, if you take a toast, it is cleaner. Turshak, Gulin - that is, apricot with a bone, you need to take brown and not black. Black this is already the second year. You know that in dry fruits, moth loves to live!
"Aha"!
"And garlic is preferred, c.o.c.kroaches"!
"And sugar - ants"!
"And the potatoes - the mouse!"
Wow, urban and you have experience breeding domestic insects and pets?
"But what about this experience for all those who survived the collapse of an empire and left it alive...".
Ah, it was time! I remember how on the train in 2 days we were on the Arctic Ocean, Severomorsk, Murmansk...
"Grandfather, who were you?"
I was a sailor, went hiking in Norway, Sweden, New Earth...
"Wow"!
Well, then the country was big...
- "Hey, old one, stop waving the tongue, it's not interesting to the guests, let's show them the village, and then we go to sign a contract and show them our supplies."
"After all, they need to be in time today to visit several villages, do not delay them, old man!"
Uh, okay, okay, that started loud...
...
On the table lay an old
Scale 1:10 000, that is, 1 cm on the map = 100 meters on the ground.
"Hey old man"!
"What the f.u.c.k is that?"
"Why doesn't the map have a meter and degree grid?"
Uh, you don't need this... I will show you the names of the villages, and you will go and find them. And the map is just to show you more or less where these villages are located!
"OH, OH, OLD"!
"Don't be wise, tell me, what the f.u.c.k is, a map without a meter grid"?
And what to tell, you do not see, this is a map of 1961, projection "B". She herself knocked down by 1 degree. During the time of the empire, all topographic maps were with known errors.
If the enemy had mastered them, he would have been mistaken, since the cards were with errors of 0.5 degrees...
And why not "grid". So it was cut off, the secretaries... it was not supposed... in those days to have a graded grid...
"What game"????!!!
It is now, it seems wild, and then, for one incorrectly printed word, a letter. it was possible to thunder for 10 years in Siberia...
"What an a.s.s...".
"Well, to h.e.l.l with this card, let's show the village"!
You yourself asked and I answered.
These villages... and the old man indicated with a pencil several villages in the three mountain gorges, which according to the map lay a couple of kilometers from the place where they were located.
"The names of the villages are somehow strange...".
"The beggar found, the beggar did not find, Golden Lake, Tricky merchant, Deceivers, Silver apple, Yellow water, Long mine, No gold, Gold is... and here are quite normal Winter fort, Strengthening customs, Postal station, Ascetic fortress, Place of the monks, Border post...
... hey, old man? What is wrong with these names "?
"There is no usual type - Life, Upper, Lower, Lake, River, Five Fingers, Three Uryuchin, Eight Oaks, Snake Gorge, Old Nut Gorge...".
Uh, well, you know... that at the time when the Tang empire was kicked out of our region... by the way, I remembered an amusing story that the commander of the imperial troops of the Tang empire was a Korean from Silla... and not a Chinese military leader.. but somehow they lost. A smaller army, but it was better organized...
"hey hey old man, you start to bore me."
And, well, in short, here the Arabs pa.s.sed the border... between the Caliphate and the endless steppes of the nomads...

... therefore the names are so strange... not typical, for the mountains...
"Aaaaaa.... the mountains are generally visible as a white spot in the study of history and archeology."
I dont know.
So, the villages where you can buy good and high-quality dry fruits are... villages of Big Ear, Three nuts, Stork Place, Red Apple,...
