"What's the matter with the father-in-law and the son-in-law?" Cao Sanmao turned around and couldn't help but get nervous again. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Just now you said that there are thousands of people in the village, and you don't farm, so you must be grabbing food everywhere on weekdays. Although there is no heavy snow covering the mountains now, winter is approaching, and the officers and troops are surrounded on all sides, what are you all eating? ”
Ah, where did Cao Sanmao want to ask this, he was stunned, and his eyes suddenly turned red and said:
"Don't hide it from the son, we have all started to eat tree roots and wild vegetables."
Liu Qiu suddenly snorted heavily on the side. Cao Sanmao glanced at him, then scratched his eyebrows and said:
"Oh son, we still have some old bran and grain bran, and we also have some harvests from hunting every day, and our lives are still better than ordinary cottages."
"In the boundaries of Yunyang Mansion, are there no sweet potatoes, artichokes and buns?"
Wendao was very strange, and couldn't help but ask, and at the same time searched his memory in his mind, confirming that he remembered very clearly, these three high-yield crops must have appeared in the Ming Dynasty in this period.
Seeing Cao Sanmao's suddenly stupid appearance, Liu Qiu thought about it, so he tentatively took over the conversation and said:
"Childe is talking about golden potatoes and sweet wheat in the south? These two things are rare in our land, and they have never been seen before, and they are said to be comparable to grain. ”
"Golden potatoes, sweet wheat?"
Wendao was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized.
It is now 1639, and it was brought into the mainland from the Philippines and South America through Chinese and foreign traders, and now it is only in China-South-Try, and it is indeed rare in the mainland. As for the artichoke, that is, the potato, it was not introduced until the years after the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of the mountains of potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes in the base, it is possible that they will soon become treasures in their own hands that can call the wind and rain at any time, not to mention the real money and white flour in the strategic reserve of up to 300,000 people/two years, I can't help but grin:
With all this food and seeds, and modern weapons that can crush everything, who else in this world can beat it?
"Whatever it's called, I just want you to know. I have all these rare things that you have said. And I will help you through the food crisis at the right time, and then teach you a permanent way to have enough food and clothing. ”
As he spoke, Wen Dao glanced at Cao Sanmao and Liu Qiu seriously, and emphasized without hesitation:
"Of course, the premise is that these people must all be members of the Celestial Empire Army, and they must always be loyal to the Celestial Empire Army, and follow the banner of the Celestial Empire Army to move forward and sweep the world."
"The way to have enough food and clothing?" Liu Qiu's face suddenly glowed with infinite yearning.
"The Celestial Empire Army, sweeping the world?" The horizontal flesh on Cao Sanmao's face trembled uncontrollably.
"Yes," Wen Dao confidently looked at Liu Qiu and Cao Sanmao:
"I will let you, and all those who follow me, have clothes to wear, to eat, and to live in, and there will never be famine, flight, or even cannibalism."
"The Celestial Empire Army, on the other hand, will let you know that a truly powerful army can not only protect you, but also conquer the world step by step."
It didn't take long for nearly 100 large and small cottages in this vast thousands of miles of mountains and peaks, whether it was a nest of bandits who specialized in robbing homes and houses, or mountain people who were half hunting and half bandits, almost no one did not know that between the poor mountains and bad waters where they had lived and hidden all their lives, there was a strange man who could not be killed by arrows, but could kill people and instantaneously with a finger of his hand.
Even, gradually, even the relatively isolated nearby counties have spread with their noses and eyes. However, according to rumors in the city, Wendao suddenly turned into a monster with short hair, scales, and arms that are good at breathing fire.
No wonder the saying says that spitting stars can kill, it seems that this is true. Moreover, the speed of its propagation is not at all worse than that of modern means of communication.
Cleaning up the wolves all over the mountains and wilderness at first thought it was a very simple thing, but when you really picked them up one by one and dealt with them centrally, Wendao realized that it was actually a complete chore. Moreover, the 20 people left by Cao Sanmao, plus the six Liu Qiu brothers, nearly 30 people, until the third day, all the wild wolves were found and put together.
Nearly a hundred wolves, gathered together, suddenly had a sense of fullness like a mountain of meat. This is also the only reason why the mountain bandits, including Liu Qiu's six brothers, are so tired and sweaty that they still can't even close their mouths when they are smiling.
You must know that in winter, when almost every village is concentrated on hunting everywhere, especially in recent years, when the government has increased the blockade, and the prey in the mountains has become less and less, and the more difficult it is to hit, these big wolves, which once made all hunters shudder, suddenly turned into fish on the sticky board for them to slaughter, and it is strange that they are not happy.
With so much meat, Childe can't eat it all by himself, right?
But the only pity is that they searched all the nearby ditches and ditches, but they did not find the snow-white body of the wolf. It seems that the guy who has become a fine still magically ran away.
"Childe, you have to find a way to transport this meat away, or hide it on the spot, otherwise it will be very troublesome to be targeted."
At this moment, Liu Qiu has unconsciously taken on the role of the big housekeeper.
"And Childe, since this little tiger cub has found it out of the hole where it is hiding, Childe had better not go to the edge of the big tiger, so maybe Childe can really raise it and follow Childe."
Since he killed the wolves and took Cao Sanmao away, as soon as the two biggest threats were gone, Wen Dao put his mind on the place where the big tiger had been staring at before he died, and he also successfully found a nest from there, and took out a little tiger cub from it that had not yet opened its eyes.
What he didn't expect was that the fluffy little tiger cub, as soon as he arrived in his arms, he didn't know whether he felt warmth, or because of the smell of toffee in Wendao's arms, he trembled and desperately drilled forward.
With such an arch, Wen Dao knew that he was finished.
Because in the original family, he once raised a pure German Shepherd, and he never opened his eyes and began to take it back and feed it, until he was admitted to the military school, they were almost inseparable.
That home, I definitely can't go back.
Now from this stunned little furry guy, he found that long-lost feeling again. At this point, except for a pistol still in his hand, he never put down this little thing again.
