Some people have subconsciously looked at the grain storage warehouse, when the 100 official halls were built, there were armories and granaries, the three-bay warehouse of Nuoda can store more than 100,000 or 200,000 catties of grain, and it is not a problem to put hundreds of bags of grain in a bag of 120 catties, but now this warehouse is empty, the original more than 20 stone grains are scattered in the grain hoard, and now more than 70 percent have been distributed and emptied, and only a few less than 20 percent are left.

This amount of grain is enough to last for two or three days, and if you train the craftsmen who distribute food and supply the banner army to do the work, I am afraid that tomorrow will directly see the bottom.

Now the atmosphere in the hundreds of households and the mood of everyone have come up, and the sudden lack of food means that all the previous efforts are lost, even if the water diversion is successful, the salt pond can produce salt, will everyone still survive until then?

"Yang Shida, who is in his mother." Han Sen scolded with red eyes: "This is to give us a salary from the bottom of the kettle, if we can't buy food, we will be cut off." ”

"I'm afraid there are ghosts in our hundreds of households." Xu Wenhuan gritted his teeth and said: "This time, Yuan Jin and Shifa deliberately made a detour to Yancheng, and they still asked them to stop after running for more than a hundred miles. ”

Gao Cuncheng said in a deep voice: "This matter is not only that we can't buy grain, we have to go to Huai'an, Shanyang County, or Guannan County, Dongyang County, or Yancheng County to sell it, as long as Yang Juda is staring at us, we can ask him to carry it wherever we go to sell." This time Yuan Jin and Shifa are afraid that they will suffer a big crime, next time whoever goes, our entire hundred households of the flag army Yu Ding will go, who will plant the land, who will see the salt pond, a thousand days to prevent thieves, it is better to be a thief in one day, we are in the light, they are ...... in the dark"

Min Yuanqi was very strange about his reaction, as if he was standing in the clouds and watching the lively gods, no matter how chaotic the mortal world was, it seemed that it was none of his business, in fact, this was a circuit breaker reaction...... The other banner troops are worried about whether they can receive today's four liters of grain, or whether their previous hopes are shattered, but their losses are not too great, and they are terrific and return to the previous days, while Min Yuanqi has invested too much, his hopes are too heavy, and he simply can't withstand the blow of disillusionment.

At this moment, Min Yuanqi's brain was also stagnant, and he even subconsciously didn't think carefully about how serious the consequences were, as if everything had nothing to do with him, and even had a sense of alienation and indifference...... This kind of reaction is common to many ordinary people, and Min Yuanqi is no exception.

"Brother Min." When Min Yuanqi was sluggish, the second girl of the Wang family finally couldn't help but say directly to him: "I heard that the people who ran back reported that Yang Shida's people rushed over indiscriminately and beat people and arrested people, and snatched away my father and our hundred households' grain trucks, and now my brother has gone to Huai'an Mansion to report to the official, my brother feels that the official is useful, but the little woman feels that the official is useless, I am afraid that there are officials in the city who promise to investigate this matter, my father and the people in your hundred households are all fierce and lucky." Besides, if it is delayed for a long time, you and I will have to run out of food. Now that those salt dices have returned to taste, not only patrolling the Huai River, but also their people in the area of Guan River and Lixia River, we can't just be trapped by them? ”

The calm and calm attitude of the girl in front of her, as well as the clear organization when analyzing things, seemed to be someone in Min Yuanqi's brain, the flood opened the floodgates, and the originally closed emotions, reason, judgment, and emotions all returned to his mind.

Min Yuanqi suddenly trembled, trembling with anger!

He is a person from later generations, has the memory of the Ming people, and gradually adapts to the way of life of this era, but it is obvious that Min Yuanqi still does not understand and understand the way of thinking and the style of doing things of people in this era.

Yang Shida's matter, Min Yuanqi did it, and he was ready to fight again on the Huai River in the future. even prepared to meet the opponent to hit the door, after all, what is the training of four buckets of food every day for, it is a henchman force that can come up at a critical time!

But they never expected that the other party had no bottom line, and the revenge psychology was also very strong, Min Yuanjin and Liang Shifa were ordered to make a detour to buy grain, but they were still ambushed by Yang Shida and his group, which shows that the other party has been planning for a long time.

"It's too much of a deception." There was obvious killing intent in Min Yuanqi's eyes, he squeezed his two fists, and his fists burst into a loud sound, and after calming down a little, Min Yuanqi said to the girl in front of him: "Wang Baihu has suffered an unwarranted disaster, and I estimate that Yang Shida and his gang do not dare to kill officials and rebel." However, even this cannot be humiliated by their gang of salt dogs, and this matter is caused by my 300th household, and I will try to solve it. ”

"With Brother Min's words, I am much more relieved." Wang Ermei nodded, she didn't even say a word, and after bowing down, she turned her head and left.

"Hey, this girl!" Han Sen's eyes widened as he watched the girl from the Wang family walk through the crowd, walk through the trail to the west, and soon left the village and headed in the direction of the four hundredth household.

"Wang Baihu is a little gentle, and his eldest son is even more stupid, I didn't expect these two daughters to be really good."

"The eldest son of the Wang family is a showman, and we have thousands of people in thousands of households, how many showmen are there? Two slaps can be counted, you say people are stupid. ”

"Scholars understand reason, but now what years are they still reasonable, that's stupid."

"The imperial court is copied, there are major events in the world, and the scholars understand it without going out, can you do this stupidity?"

The flag army was surprised by Wang Ermei's coolness and decisiveness, which did not match her beautiful and delicate appearance at all, and they couldn't help but admire it for a while.

Speaking of which, this girl from the Wang family looks like a delicate girl of 1.6 meters, but she has a height of 5 feet 1 inch or 1.7 meters, and according to the standards of later generations, she is simply an angel face and a devil figure.

"The appearance is also handsome...... I don't know which flag army continued to sigh with emotion: "It's this big and tall, like a big mule, I'm afraid it's difficult to marry." ”

"Fuck you." Han Sen defended his relatives and glared: "The daughter of a hundred households, handsome, still worried about getting married?" ”

However, Han Sen's confidence is not very strong, the man in this year is about 1.6 meters is a normal height, and the average height of the military attache family is higher, but Wang Ermei is indeed too tall, so the scope of mate selection has been virtually reduced a lot.

Everyone just chatted a little bit for a sentence or two, and then they all came to their senses, and they all looked at Min Yuanqi in unison.

Min Yuanqi had calmed down, his face was very calm, he hung up his Qi knife, and said in a deep voice: "I can't take care of anything else at the moment, the salt pond is going to divert water, this matter is related to our big plan, and we can't delay...... Let's go. ”

……

The salt pond by the sea has long been crowded with people, today is a big day, from the morning before dawn there are some old people running over, white-haired old men and old women, wearing tattered clothes, shivering by the cold wind of the early morning, but they ran over early, some old banner soldiers still have broken long knives or broken iron spears in their hands, and their eyes are very firm to look at those household craftsmen.

The craftsmen looked a little expectant and a little embarrassed, if it went well today, they would have to leave, and they would have to find a new job to do. However, if it does not go well, they are also afraid of being dragged out by the angry flag army to vent their anger, the army and the people fight each other, and the fight between each other is not once or twice, and the status of the craftsmen is not high, so they are afraid that they will fight in vain.

After the hour, the sun was shining, craftsmen, big and small workers, helpers, women, old people and children, hundreds of people in the entire Baihu Village almost all gathered together, and when Min Yuanqi and others came over, there was a commotion around the salt pond.

Li De, Zhang Fengshan, Zhang Fengnian, Li Tiansheng, Li Tianyang, Li Tianfu, Shen Yong and others were all sweating profusely, and their expressions became even more nervous when they saw Min Yuanqi coming.

There are only two brick and mud workers hired by the craftsmen, and the rest are small workers, because they are afraid of the leakage of core technology, these foreign big workers and small workers are only working in the tile kiln, and this side is the most hands-on.

If things don't work out, these military craftsmen are directly dragged down and beaten with military sticks, and the angry flag army directly kills a few craftsmen, can it be that the Zhenfu Division of Huai'an Mansion will send someone to investigate thoroughly, how can the local government ask about the affairs of the flag army, it is really killed without asking, and it will die in vain.

Although the more than 30 banner troops were bare-handed, the frame was already up.

After more than ten days of training, the appearance and momentum of each soldier have been significantly improved, the body is very tall, the eyes are firm, the arms and legs are a little exquisite, although everyone is thin before, there is still a pile of fat on the body, now the fat is gone, the muscles in the arms and chest are more and more bulging, obviously more strong and capable than ordinary people.

After all, although they were flag soldiers before, these people had never fought a single fight in a year, but now they fought ten times a day eight times, and each time they didn't bleed a little, and they felt exhausted when they went home with some injuries.

Of course, this kind of training method is barbaric and ferocious, but Min Yuanqi and the flag army have persevered, so as to enhance the ruthlessness and hidden ferocity of the flag army in a short period of time, a person can be honest and weak before becoming a soldier, but when you become a soldier, you have to have a fierce nature, dare to kill the fierceness, military discipline is military discipline, ferocity is ferocious, if there is no murder, not cruel enough, how can you pierce the tip of the spear into the abdomen of a person, and then watch the other party's intestines flow out of the broken abdominal cavity? How can you cut off a person's head with a single knife, and one second the person was still talking, and the next second the head flew out, leaving only wriggling flesh and hollow neck cavities popping out?

If you are not cruel and ruthless, can you do such a thing?

The fierceness of the group of flag soldiers in front of him has been preliminarily trained, which is completely different from when he encountered Yang Shida and his gang at Guannan Wharf.

It is the saying that a sheep can lead a group of lions into a flock of sheep, and a lion can lead a group of sheep into a fierce and terrifying group of lions.

As soon as the flag army arrived, they consciously divided the mandarin duck squad into three groups, standing on the north, south and west sides, faintly surrounding the direction of the salt pond.

A group of artisans stood near the aqueduct, and if a hole was made in the outer embankment, the sea water would pour in until the reservoir was full.

The water of the reservoir is slowly drained into the pond, and the bottom of the pond is tiled, which is equivalent to saving the process of making brine with seawater and thatch and salt soil after the tide, and it is also the step of frying salt.

After exposure to the sun and feng shui, the seawater that is led to the lowest place of the crystal pond is gradually turned into crystal salt after continuous stirring by manpower, and then shoveled out with a wooden shovel, stacked to dry, and finally packed into salt.
