Chapter 583: 100,000 hungry people besiege the imperial capital

The smile of the second elder was meaningful, and there was pride and relaxation between his words, and he was happy physically and mentally, like an old fox who had succeeded in his treacherous scheme.

Yao Yun, Sun Muyue, Baili Huang and the others quickly understood the meaning of the second elder's words.

Food is an indispensable and important resource at all times, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be stuck.

On weekdays, the 700,000 mu of grain on both sides of the Chishui River will at most fill the granary of Xiguo, so that every person in Xiguo will have enough to eat, and by the way, sell grain to earn a huge fortune in the process.

Nowadays, insect plagues are rampant in the countries of Middle-earth, fertile fields have suffered, countless crops that are about to ripen have been swallowed up by insect nests, and the grain that has just been collected in the granaries in many places has not been spared.

Yao Yun was born rich and noble in this life, the god of the imperial clan, even if he came to the barren land, he was never hungry, even if there was no food to eat, he could eat meat... Well, eat the meat of the beast.

However, ordinary people can't "why not eat minced meat", if the crops in the field are not harvested, there is no monarch to help, they will really starve to death.

It can be said that today's Tianzi Dianfu and the countries of Middle-earth not only have to deal with the insect plague as soon as possible, but also urgently need a large amount of food to help the victims.

If you are careful, hundreds of thousands or even millions of Li people will not survive this winter.

Well, maybe it won't be winter yet, and the road will already be full of corpses and desolate.

Yao Yun: "700,000 acres of fertile land on both sides of the Chishui River, with a yield of four or five stones per mu, if you save a little, you can feed hundreds of thousands of people, and if it is used for disaster relief, so that the people of Middle Earth can tide over the difficulties, you can live millions of people, two elders, this is indeed a great merit, a monstrous merit." ”

The arrogant insects used their magical powers to deliberately retaliate against the summer dynasty, and the vassal states of the world were all affected by it, although the disaster of the four famineous countries was a little lighter, but the food in the country was only enough for self-sufficiency, and if you want to give blood transfusion to Middle Earth, you don't have to think about it.

If you want to break the situation, I'm afraid you have to be on Xiguo.

After sorting out this context, the high-level officials of Xiguo understood the meaning of the second elder Wu's call, so a faint smile appeared on everyone's faces.

"Sun Guoxiang, this is the beginning of the comprehensive autumn harvest, this year has gone through several twists and turns, but fortunately, there is no danger, and it is another bumper harvest year!"

"Whoa!"

Sun Muyue bowed, and the famous Xiguo Iron Lady showed a happy smile at this time.

After that, Yao Yun didn't say much, now he just needs to wait quietly for the moment of harvest.

Whether it is the fertile fields of Jintao Daolang or the task released by Huangshi Tianshu, the elimination of insect nests has been completed, and now it is only left to try to save the people of the Celestial Empire.

I don't know what reward Huangshi Heavenly Book will give when the time comes......

With anticipation, Yao Yun began to run for a bumper harvest,

The people of Xiguo have long forgotten the fear caused by the insect plague, and everyone has a joyful mood to harvest rice ears and threshing....

.......

Imperial Capital Cloud Master.

Unlike Xiguo, which is in full swing and full of joy, the air in the imperial capital is a little anxious and depressed.

In a short period of time, a large number of insects were eliminated, the rampant insect plague was contained, the situation gradually stabilized, and everything was developing on the good side.

However, the opposite of the insect plague is the food problem.

These days, there is a lot of hunger, chaos, countless plagues of insects, and the people who have no harvest in the fields are fleeing towards the rich cities and the capitals.

Even the Imperial Capital Cloud Master is no exception.

A few miles outside the city, the black pressure is overwhelming, all of them are the people who came to the imperial capital to flee the famine, and the flow of people who fled ~ is endless.

The Son of Heaven served as the fiefdom of the Emperor of Heaven and the Son of Heaven, floods, snow disasters, famines, fierce beasts and monsters raging, all of which have nothing to do with them, they live comfortably and peacefully, and the people at the feet of the Son of Heaven have always been arrogant.

But this insect plague has embarrassed the proud people at the feet of these heavens.

For the first time, the densely populated land of Dianfu was cut off, and the scene was terrifying.

As soon as the people who had gone through hardships and fled arrived at the majestic and magnificent imperial capital Yunshi, tears fell one by one, and the cry shook the sky.

The cries and cries of the mountains and tsunamis were mixed, but their central idea was the same, that is, to beg the Son of Heaven to open a warehouse for relief and give them a bite to eat.

All the people prayed, and the cry shook the heavens.

The Son of Heaven is a fiefdom directly under the Prince of Heaven, with the most fertile land in the world, the largest number of people, and outstanding people, which is the foundation of the Son of Heaven's authority.

Now in the land of Dianfu, the insect plague is raging, the people of Dianfu are precarious, hungry, as the Son of Heaven, if he can't save the people from fire and water, what face does he have to rule the world, known as the Son of Heaven.

Emperor Du has the intention to save the people, but the real situation is that the grain reserves of the imperial capital Yunshi can barely feed most of the people in the imperial capital, and if you add hundreds of thousands of refugees who are constantly fleeing the famine, the imperial capital will not last long.

The monarch of an ordinary vassal state is ruthless, and can abandon the car to protect the commander and ignore the victims.

However, as the Son of Heaven, he can't ignore the people who have fled, otherwise he will lose the support of the people, shake the foundation, and the position of the Son of Heaven will not be stable.

On the Golden Palace, the Emperor of Heaven sank like water at dusk, angrily reprimanded the ministers at the bottom of the ranks, and asked the ministers to provide food to relieve the difficulty of the cloud master.

"My lords, the insect plague in Middle-earth is the most serious, and as a courtier of the Heavenly Empire, you have been enshrined as a rich land, and in this time of crisis, you should save the people from fire and water......

Emperor Ziqi mobilized the princes from all sides to donate grain on the jade steps, and the ministers below showed bitter faces, burying their heads one by one, looking at their noses and noses, and their feet couldn't help but shrink back.

Even if Emperor Ziqi was spitting in front of the jade steps, no one stood up and shared his worries for the Son of Heaven.

For a while, there was silence in front of the Golden Palace, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing.

Emperor Tianzi's face was extremely ugly, and he snorted coldly.

The sound was like thunder, directly hitting the hearts of the princes of the dynasty, and the faces of the ministers changed greatly.

Jiang Gong: Holy Lord, if you are not stingy, there is really no surplus food in the country, and the insect plague is not only raging, but also the countries of Middle-earth have not been spared, and we are also worried and unable to sleep at night. ”

Lu Hou: "Jiang Gong's words are reasonable, the ministers are also full of disaster victims, there is no food to save, the saint, the ministers are willing to offer wealth and silk, used to buy grain from the four desolate countries." ”

"The minister is also willing to offer wealth. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

......

For a time, the opinions of the ministers in the palace reached a consensus, the food was useless, and the wealth and silk should be as much as they wanted.

In the past, wealth was more attractive than food, but in disaster years, food is the hard currency, trump everything, and this is the time when money cannot buy food.

What is the use of wealth at this time! Emperor Tianzi was quite unhappy when he saw this, but he also understood the difficulties of the ministers, and the countries of Middle-earth really could not get food.

"In that case, do you know which of the four desolate countries has a good harvest today and is less affected?"
