Chapter 33: A natural disaster is coming
On December 20, the third month after Jinghong and others returned to Qinzhou, Duanmu Zixuan, who was far away in Gongzhou, gave birth to a daughter peacefully, and Tuoba Zixiong named her "Snow Jade". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ When the info news came, Murong Qinghua and Jinghong both breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past three months, although Jinghong and Duanmu Zixuan often corresponded, because Duanmu Zixuan said that Gongzhou was calm and nothing happened every time, Jinghong couldn't help but start to wonder if it was because she was pregnant, Tuoba Zixiong hid a lot of things.
Now that she finally gave birth to a child safely, Jinghong's heart that has been hanging has finally let go a little.
"Anyway, it's better to have nothing than something. After secretly sighing like this, Jing Hong put aside his doubts for the time being, and continued to live the days of cultivation and recultivation.
If more than a month passed, Jinghong smoothly broke through to the Jindan period. Murong Qinghua and Duanmu Ziling were naturally surprised and delighted, but Jinghong, Yun Qi, and Yu Ling didn't feel muchβit was really that her current cultivation was too worthless compared to before.
Moreover, it was Murong Qinghua and Duanmu Ziling, their joy was quickly diluted by another worrying thing - it was farming season soon, but it suddenly began to rain all the time in Qinzhou.
At first, people were glad that the spring rain had come at the right time, but after the rain had rained for five, ten, or fifteen days, even the naΓ―ve children began to frown.
I couldn't bear to see my grandmother frowning every day, so I asked Yu Ling to make a small divination, but the hexagram showed that the rain was getting heavier and longer.
Only then did he realize that things might be going to be big.
The next day, she took Yun Qi and Yu Ling to the inn with the most traffic in Mingxiang City, the purpose of which was naturally to collect more information from the mouths of the traveling merchants.
After eavesdropping for a morning, she came to a conclusion that the people of the four states, including Qinzhou, were afraid that they were going to experience a natural disaster, and especially the people of Qinzhou.
Fortunately, these four states do not include Gongzhou, which her mother married, but it saves her from the trouble of worrying about both ends.
After returning to the Lord's Mansion, she directly approached Murong Qinghua and Duanmu Ziling, and told the two rulers of Qinzhou about the current grim situation.
Murong Qinghua pondered for a moment before saying, "For today's plan, we can only try to minimize the casualties of the state citizens first." Is there a way you can slow down the rain, even if it's just to avoid flash floods and river flooding. β
Jinghong glanced apologetically at Murong Qinghua, who was worried, "There is a way, but even if you gather the strength of me, Yu Ling, and Yun Qi, at most, you can only protect the range of more than a thousand miles around this Mingxiang City." β
Thinking that the hundreds of thousands of state citizens under his rule were about to be displaced, Murong Qinghua closed his eyes in pain, "Then this matter will be for you." Other grandmothers came to figure it out. β
Jing Hong stretched out his hand to hold Murong Qinghua's slightly trembling right hand, and at the same time, a reassuring smile appeared on his little face, "Grandmother, there is more than one place where Jing Hong can help." β
Murong Qinghua was surprised and delighted, "Oh? β
Jing Hong folded his little hands and counted them one by one, "The food, medicine, and silver money needed for disaster relief, as well as the growth of crop seedlings after the disaster, these will all be handed over to Jing Hong." β
Hearing her take care of everything like this, Murong Qinghua opened her mouth slightly, looking overly frightened - she knew that her family was rich, but it was so rich......
It was rare to see his grandmother like this, and Jinghong couldn't help but laugh secretly, "Grandmother?"
Murong Qinghua came back to her senses in an instant, she reached out and gently stroked the half-length black hair of Jinghong, her face was full of a soft smile, "Jinghong, there are hundreds of thousands of people in Qinzhou, how can grandmother let my good grandson be so expensive." β
Although Jinghong was very happy that Murong Qinghua was worried about her money bag, how could her wealth reserves be comparable to that of the Qinzhou Lord's Mansion, a human family that had been inherited for only hundreds of years?
Although the wealth needed to relieve hundreds of thousands of people is just a drop in the bucket for her, if it is changed to the Qinzhou Lord's Mansion, it will be a ruined move to scatter most of the family's wealth.
And if it's just a loser, forget it, if you can't hand over the immortal silver that was paid to the Jiyun Gang, then it's a big deal.
After thinking about it, she stretched out her hand and beckoned Yu Ling, "I remember you told me the day before yesterday that there are some things you don't need to deal with?"
Yu Ling's fingertips moved slightly, and a storage bag flew in front of Jing Hong, "Are you talking about this?"
Jing Hong probed into his mind and swept it, and sure enough, he found that there were several ordinary flying swords that could be found everywhere, more than a dozen bundles of low-level talismans with various uses, and hundreds of boxes of low-grade pills such as detoxification pills, hemostatic pills, and Huiyuan pills.
"Yes, that's it. Jing Hong made a rough calculation, and found that these things that were disliked by Yu Ling as "rags" added up to about a thousand lower grade spirit stones, so he pushed them in front of Murong Qinghua with a smile, "Grandmother, how about using these? Although they are all miscellaneous things, they add up to almost 100,000 taels of gold, and it shouldn't be a problem to think about it for three or four months." β
Murong Qinghua swept his thoughts, and his face suddenly became exciting.
This is not because Jinghong gave her 100,000 gold as soon as he threw it away, after all, she had also received more precious things from Jinghong before.
The reason why she looked strange was simply because the contents of the storage bag were distributed in a mess, like garbage thrown in by someone.
What Murong Qinghua didn't know was that her guess was completely correct.
These low-quality flying swords, talismans, and pills were all the trophies that the three of them had harvested in recent years when they were fighting against those blindless robbers, but because they really couldn't get into Yu Ling's eyes, they were casually thrown into one of the storage bags by her when they counted the loot.
Naturally, Yu Ling would not be idle to sort out the things that she had already defined as "rags", so she had been letting the mess in this storage bag go for a long time.
If it weren't for the fact that he found out that the storage bag that existed as a garbage bag a few days ago was full, Yu Ling would not have mentioned in front of Jing Hong that he wanted to dispose of the contents by the way.
And at this time, these "rags" were actually put in handy by Jinghong, and Yu Ling was really unspeakably strange. At the same time, she also repented a little of her extravagance and waste.
"It's worthy of my sister, and when such waste comes into her hands, she has the opportunity to play her own value of existence. Thinking so, Yu Ling's gaze at Jing Hong was a little more reverent.
Yun Qi, who had been watching coldly, couldn't help but secretly slander, "Sure enough, Yu Ling's worship and preference for Jinghong has always been blind and unreasonable. β
