MTL - Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.-Chapter 1153 Get busy in advance!
Chapter 1153: Get busy in advance!
Everyone nodded, and after careful consideration, they found that they didn’t miss anything, so they ate together.
That night, Good News came into the space again, and I took a thorough inventory of all the things I had saved.
Especially food and other food items, and then I feel much more at ease.
She probably was a hamster in her last life, and the habit of hoarding things seemed to be engraved in her bones.
Not to mention all these years, the gold and silver jewelry and good things, grains, medicinal materials and fruits she had saved were the sauce jars she had put into her space before escaping from Junyang County. They are still lined up against the wall, and they have never been seen. been abandoned...
Fortunately, there are no mice in the space, otherwise I would be rolling around happily. Such a large, miscellaneous and full warehouse is simply a paradise!
Early on the next morning, the village chief hurried back to Broken Gold Beach.
Shuiyun also went to find Peng Chuan, Chen Xi and others. Zheng He even rushed to Luo'an Academy last night.
The villagers almost broke their necks. They finally waited for the village chief to come back and immediately surrounded him.
The village chief issued the order directly without explaining a word.
“Hurry up and pick the fruits on the mountains. The city has made arrangements to send more than half of them there. All the crops in the fields can be harvested, and...”
Orders were issued one after another, and the villagers dispersed with a roar after asking and understanding.
Everyone, old or young, who could move their legs, got busy.
I don’t care whether it’s hot or not, let alone taking a lunch break. The most important thing is to quickly grab things and put them in storage.
Even those who couldn't move their legs and really couldn't do heavy work gathered in the big kitchen hall to help boil water for cooking and do the logistics work.
The village chief went to look for Jingli Zheng. He didn’t say much. He only said five words: The refugees are coming!
The hair in the scene was standing on end, and some people started to shout to the villagers to clean up things in the fields.
The villagers from the other two villages came after hearing the news, and soon ran away as if there was a wolf chasing after them.
Of course, the three Li Zheng all know that the matter is of great importance and it is not easy to talk nonsense.
So, no matter how much the villagers asked, they would only respond with curses.
"If you are asked to clean up, clean it up quickly. I can still harm you on purpose! It's okay if you don't clean up. You will regret it later. Don't blame me for not reminding you."
“Also, if you cause trouble to the village, get out of here. There will be no disobedient people left in the village!”
Since the words have been spoken so harshly, who dares to delay?
As a result, Suijintan was so busy that there was no one idle.
Similarly, the Jia family, Xing family and Liu family are also working hard to win over external Zhuangzi and industries.
The Liu family is a century-old family and naturally has a lot of wealth.
Although the children and grandchildren of the Jia family are not very promising, they also have no prodigal sons, so the family wealth saved is also considerable.
However, the Xing family has a poor family background, and there is only a small village outside the city.
After getting the news, the first thing the three families did was to transport all the food from outside!
Pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, etc. are slaughtered, cured and air-dried.
Half of the live fish is caught and put into the lake in the small garden, and the other half is also killed and made into preserved fish.
Vegetables that can be sold are sold, and vegetables that cannot be sold are sent to the city to be dried.
In short, try every means to gather food and prepare to tide over the difficulties.
The Xing family and the Liu family are just reconciled, and they firmly believe in any news about the Li family.
But here in the Jia family, Mrs. Jia is the head of the family. She had an unpleasant quarrel with the Li family before, and she felt somewhat uncomfortable.
After receiving the news, she tried to evade it in every possible way and made many excuses. It’s not that the family doesn’t have enough manpower, but it means that if we gather Zhuangzi’s production at this time, we will suffer a lot.
Mrs. Jia Er became angry at that time. She had a quarrel with her sister-in-law and even proposed to separate the family.
In the end, it was Mrs. Jia who scolded the eldest daughter-in-law, and naturally suppressed the idea of dividing the family.
Mrs. Jia Er temporarily "took command" and showed off her talents. She took all the housekeepers and servants in the family to deal with the property in a low-key and urgent manner.
The most surprising thing is Baozhu. The girl who is usually greedy and playful suddenly seems to have grown up.
She carried an abacus and account books, and a maid, and stayed with her mother. Whether it was writing calculations or keeping accounts, she was competent at it and handled it properly.
This received praise from the whole family and made Mrs. Jia extremely proud.
"The one who is close to vermillion is red, the one who is close to ink is black!" Mrs. Jia Er raised her chin, glanced at her sister-in-law contemptuously, and said with a smile, "On weekdays, Baozhu and the princess play for a while, who wants to say a few slanderous words, as if Why did the princess spoil our children? In fact, the princess taught Baozhu a lot of skills!
"It's just that the orb is lazy and has no chance to use it on weekdays. Now it will add glory and glory."
Mrs. Jia was very angry, but thinking about her son who was in the Northern Expedition, she endured it, and then silently hoped that the refugees would not come...
She didn’t know how many people thought the same thing as her.
It’s a pity that things in the world rarely go as expected!
Jiayin and Mrs. Li had been "crying" for another day in the palace. When they left the palace, the first thing they did was to ask Shuiling who was waiting outside.
“How is it outside the city?”
Shui Ling's face turned red from the sun. She had been out of the city most of the time today and had just come back before her master left the palace.
At this moment, she has too much say.
“Princess, your guess is so accurate. There are indeed refugees coming outside the city. There are hundreds of them in one day. I rode a horse and ran south for dozens of miles, and there are still many people on the road.
“The soldiers at the city gate stopped the refugees from entering the city. The refugees set up tents outside the city gate and were begging everywhere.”
Jiayin frowned and sighed softly.
This is just the beginning. Hundreds of refugees gathered together and did not dare to make any noise with the gatekeepers. They could only cry and beg and compromise.
But if the refugees collect one thousand, two thousand, or even 12,000, it won’t look like this!
Mrs. Li was also concerned and asked Shuiling, "How is it over there at Broken Gold Beach?"
"The village chief and his people are picking fruits and harvesting the fields non-stop. I heard that they have to stay up late tonight to work, and tomorrow at the latest, they won't be finished."
Shui Ling took out two half-ripe fruits from his sleeves, held them to his master, and said with a smile, "These are fruits from the mountains, they are particularly thirst-quenching."
Mrs. Li and Jiayin quickly waved their hands. The half-red and half-green fruit looked unpalatable.
Sure enough, when Shui Ling saw that his master refused to eat, he brought it to his mouth, bit into half of it, and then his sore eyebrows and eyes knitted together.
Orange Mrs. Li and Jiayin both had sore teeth and secreted saliva...
In the Earl's Mansion, Li Dayong came back for a rare occasion. After finally waiting for everyone in the Li family to come back, he hurriedly said, "I have mobilized two hundred wounded soldiers in the camp, all of whom are capable. Fifty people were sent to Luo'an and handed over. I gave it to Dean Zhou, and the remaining one hundred and fifty have already arrived at Broken Gold Beach.
"I see that the situation outside the city is not good. Don't leave the city easily in the future. Even if you want to leave the city, you must bring more people."
Li Laoer took him to sit down and drink tea.
Old Mrs. Li also asked for help. Sometimes she touched her clothes, and sometimes she looked at him to see if he had lost weight. She treated Li Dayong like a child.
Li Dayong felt funny and felt warm in his heart, so he talked to the old lady for a long time.
When he found out that there was nothing else to do at home, he was anxious to return to the dock.
