Chapter Ninety-Four: I'm Going to Run Out of Food [Asking for Harvest and Seeking Red]

Gently flipped the folded rice paper, and after looking at it for a while, Blacksmith Liu showed a look of non-acceptance.

"You command the craftsman's workshop to make two hundred pairs in this pattern." Jia Rong said slowly.

"Yes!" Blacksmith Liu immediately replied.

With Blacksmith Liu's many years of experience in ironmaking, it can naturally be seen that this thing is used for ploughing, but the style is incompatible with the previous plough style, and all he has to do is to carry out Jia Rong's orders.

After that, Jia Rong talked with Liu Blacksmith about the daily work of the craftsman's workshop, and after talking for a while, Liu Blacksmith gradually let go, and continued to complain to Jia Rong, since Jia Rong promulgated the rule that anyone who beats Liu Blacksmith in the aspect of ironwork can replace Liu Blacksmith's position, this condition is too attractive, many blacksmiths brazenly challenged Liu Blacksmith, and because Liu Blacksmith's reputation is not covered, those blacksmiths were defeated.

Jia Rong said with a smile: "Only continuous competition will make faster progress!" ”

Jia Rong's painting of this plough is naturally the plough of later generations, the sharp front of the plough can reduce the resistance brought by the ground, so that the speed of ploughing is faster, after the plough tool is created, it is first promoted in Beidi County, and then this creation is sold to Mi Zhu, I believe that it can make a lot of money.

The craftsmen's workshops in Northland County quickly became famous in Northland County, and merchants also went to Northland County in an endless stream to sell iron materials, and where there were profits, there were merchants, and the endless flow of merchants also added a touch of prosperity to the bleak Northland County.

The fluttering snow fell from the nine days, and the ground was soon covered with a white carpet, standing in the courtyard, looking at the shijie wrapped in silver, Jia Rong suddenly became worried, the heavy snow according to the current situation, it is likely to cause snow disasters, most of the houses where the ancient people lived were thatched houses, and they were a little crumbling under the blowing of the usual wind and rain, if the snow was pressed, most of the houses may collapse because of this, and the mood of enjoying the snow disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Unlike in the past, this year's snow was particularly heavy.

Zhang Li anxiously paced back and forth in the Taishou Mansion, and the heavy snow overnight caused many houses in the city to collapse, and one bad news after another came.

"I said Brother Zirong, I'll be stunned by you for a while, sit down and rest." Jia Rong took a sip of hot tea and said, after all, Zhang Li is still a fledgling little scholar, and he lacks the good psychological quality of the collapse of Mount Tai that does not change color.

Zhang Li had just sat down when he heard footsteps coming from outside the door, so he suddenly got up, pulled the snowy soldier and asked, "Is there another house accident?" ”

Jia Rong got up and pulled Zhang Li aside, and said, "Brother Zirong, what do you say is also the long history of the Taishou Mansion, and you must stabilize it at the critical moment, otherwise what will the people below do." ”

The soldier clenched his fists and replied, "General Qiyu, a thousand soldiers are already waiting outside the Taishou Mansion!" "Jia Rong is now the Taishou of Beidi County, but the soldiers of the army still call him a general.

Jia Rong pressed Zhang Liqiang on his seat and said, "Brother Zirong, you will sit in the Taishou Mansion now, and I will take someone to deal with the snow disaster." ”

Jia Rong, dressed in military uniform, appeared in front of the gate of the Taishou Mansion, and it was hard to imagine that there were a thousand soldiers standing in front of the gate of the Taishou Mansion.

Jia Rong said: "Now the soldiers are divided into ten routes, gathering the people who have collapsed because of the collapse of the houses, and trying to meet the demands of the people, understand? ”

"Understood!" The neat roar of a thousand soldiers made the falling snowflakes tremble gently, and the snow on the branches of the trees in the distance was shaken and fell from the trees with a popping sound.

Although many houses collapsed due to the snowstorm, fortunately no people died.

Jia Rong arranged for these people to live in the barracks, and now there are still many houses in the camp in Beidi County, and it is better to arrange for these refugees to live.

Once again, the warehouses in Northland County were cleaned, and bedding and other heating items were sent to the barracks.

Looking at the brand-new bedding and hot meals, many people shed tears of gratitude, and a respected old man said with the support of the soldiers: "Lord Taishou is a good person, if it is a useful place for Lord Taishou in the future, everyone must not refuse." ”

Although all the people did not promise what would happen in the future, the gratitude in their eyes was self-evident.

Jia Rong accompanied by Zhang Li came to the temporary residence of the people, looking at the people standing straight one by one, and the old man under the support of the soldiers, Jia Rong personally helped the old man to the side of the bed and sat down, although there was a suspicion of show, but it made the trembling old man in front of him excited, the old hand in the ravine grabbed Jia Rong and said: "You are a good official!" After that, he was speechless with excitement, and the muddy old tears kept rolling in his eyes.

Jia Rong comforted the old man a few words, looked at the people, and said with a smile: "Why are you standing?" Bad food? ”

The people said in unison, "No, no..."

"Then sit down and eat, it's not good if the food is cold in a while, if you are my soldiers, you have to stand for me even if you want to sit."

The soldiers who came with Jia Rong straightened their chests, and in their eyes, it was a very honorable thing to be mentioned by Jia Rong.

The atmosphere was also eased by the solemnity of Fang Cai, the soldiers and people in the north were rough and simple, they had been busy for so long, and they were really hungry, drinking the hot soup in the bowl, constantly sending the cakes in their hands to their mouths, and sweeping the food in front of them cleanly.

Looking at many young and middle-aged people who looked unsatisfied, Jia Rong smiled and said, "Everyone eat, I promise that you will not be hungry." After speaking, Jia Rong also sat cross-legged on the ground, picked up a bowl of hot soup handed by the soldier and drank it, and the people who ate it were slightly more than the others.

The appearance of Lord Taishou in front of him made many people hide their mouths and snicker, and unconsciously, the distance between them and Jia Rong has also narrowed a lot, what the people need is not an official who leads the soldiers to show off their might everywhere and is feared, but a parent official who is willing to suffer together.

Jia Rong ate three flatbreads in a row and drank two bowls of hot soup before he stood up with a full burp and said, "This soup tastes good." ”

This meeting was bitter for Zhang Li, standing next to Jia Rong or sitting or sitting, looking at Jia Rong's unflattering appearance, Zhang Li deeply regretted coming all the way with Jia Rong.

The faces of the well-fed and well-fed people also improved a lot, and they looked at Jia Rong quietly one by one.

Jia Rong touched his face and asked, "Did the rice just now get on your face?" I ate too quickly and didn't pay attention. With that, he wiped his face with his hand.

Jia Rong's funny behavior caused everyone to chuckle, even Zhang Li, who had a straight face, couldn't help laughing, looking at the Taishou Lord who was eating with them without the slightest jiashi, everyone's hearts warmed, although Jia Rong's way of doing things was very casual, but it was very in line with the appetite of everyone in front of him, thinking of being displaced by the snow disaster, being taken in by Lord Taishou, and sharing joys and sorrows with him, many people's eyes were red.

Jia Rong said: "You don't have to worry about the problem of housing, and in the spring after the year, I will organize everyone to rebuild the house together to ensure that your house will not collapse because of a small snow disaster, and you can rest assured that you will live in the barracks, and you can tell me if you have any needs." ”

In order to find a reason for them to accept it with peace of mind, Jia Rong continued: "Of course, I have to take back the money for your food and accommodation this winter!" ”

Looking at everyone's nervous faces, Jia Rong said with a smile: "The money for food and accommodation is the salary for you to build a house next year, and you have to work hard then, otherwise I will ask you to come back." ”

Some people slapped their chests on the mountain, "Although the adults can rest assured, if anyone is lazy at that time, the villain will not let him go." ”

A bold citizen stepped forward and asked, "My lord, do we still recruit soldiers in Northland County?" Many young adults cast eager glances.

"The soldiers must be recruited, and when the foreign thieves come to attack, we still have to rely on our local people to kill the enemy! At that time, some of you will be the source of our soldiers in the Northlands, and the responsibility of defending our homeland will also fall on your shoulders. Jia Rong said slowly.

Many young and middle-aged people showed yearning on their faces, and even the old men who had always been afraid of government recruitment continued to encourage those younger generations to join Jia Rongjun.

After arranging the food and lodging of the people, Jia Rong left the camp.

The snowstorm caused the displacement of hundreds of families, which undoubtedly added a layer of frost to the already stretched Beidi County, and the rest of the counties had collapsed houses.

Tribulation sees the truth, Jia Rong's current efforts have increased the attachment of all the people, even if foreign soldiers come to attack, they dare to brazenly pick up farm tools to resist, this is all a later story.

There are about 5,000 refugees gathered in the entire Northland County, and if it weren't for the temporary fall in love with the rich man Mi Zhu, I am afraid that there are not a few people in the Northland County who will freeze to death and starve to death this time.

In just the past month, documents running out of food in each county have been sent to the Taishou Mansion of Beidi County.

And the four great families of Beidi County can't wait to see Jia Rong's jokes, how can they help, in the eyes of these families, their family is the first, and state affairs are put second.

At the same time, some people have no food at home, and some people have not even eaten for a day, and now the tax of the Han Dynasty is one of ten taxes, and the tax is relatively heavy, coupled with the poor harvest, many people have no surplus food at home, and the soldiers on patrol reacted to this situation, and they don't know how much hair Jia Rong has lost, and now the grain in Beidi County can only last for seven days, and after seven days, all the people and soldiers will have to drink the northwest wind to live.

Even if they starve to death, the whole county will starve to death together, and whatever these people eat in the future, all the officials will follow what they eat, this is the zuihou order issued by Jia Rong.

When this order spread throughout the Northland County, many people burst into tears.
