Chapter 9: Bulk Grains
Seeing that she was relieved, Xia Daxi, who had been waiting for a long time, lifted the curtain and jumped down with her skirt. The sudden jump of a beautiful girl in the car was enough to cause a commotion in the middle of nowhere—they were even more curious about who the 'master' was.
He ran to the woman in three or two steps, and took the child under her teary-eyed gaze. After a brief inquiry, she smiled at the woman soothingly: "The child is fine, but he is hungry." After the words fell, she shouted into the carriage again: "Shi Chun, get some milk." ”
"It's coming, it's like it's urgent." Immediately afterwards, Shi Chun's teapot also followed. As if she didn't see the greedy eyes of the people around her, she casually poured the milk into the bowl and handed it to the woman.
The fragrance of food filled the air, and the commotion of the crowd became more and more intense, just when Shi Chun thought that these people were going to have a thief's heart to block the road and rob, Qi Changrong's voice came first.
"Bring her forward, I have something to ask, and if she answers well, I will ensure that she has no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life." Everyone was surprised, the woman was both happy and a little hesitant, or Shi Chun pushed her impatiently: "My master has an order, but you still can't go?" This is a blessing that you have cultivated in eight lifetimes! This caused even more commotion, and many people were eager to replace the woman's hesitant appearance.
Who says it's not, the royal family is like the stars in the sky to ordinary people, but now she can talk to the crown prince of the dynasty, even if it is not too much to describe it as the smoke from the ancestral tomb.
The woman was startled, gritted her teeth, and walked forward quickly, kneeling beside the car and waiting for orders. Through the car curtain, Qi Changrong's voice sounded faintly: "Since the beginning of the dynasty, the wealth of the southeast has always been only lower than that of Shangjing, why do I not know how many displaced people I have seen along the way?" The woman lowered her head, licked her dry lips, and replied in a dumb voice: "Your nobles don't know, about the year before last, the southeast drought, floods, and locust plagues have come one after another, and the crops have not been harvested. The woman rubbed her hands nervously.
She didn't know if her answer would satisfy the nobles in the carriage, but she had already told all she knew.
After waiting for a moment, the woman could not help despairing, she thought that her answer was not exhaustive, so it was not worth the rest of her life.
Qi Changrong snorted: "Shi Chun, take her to the carriage behind." The implication is satisfaction.
She already knew why, she just had to go through the motions. Hearing this, the woman was overjoyed, and she kowtowed to Qi Changrong with a thousand thanks, and then retreated with Shi Chun.
"Luo Yi, everyone will eat food for three days." Luo Yi was stunned and nodded yes. As soon as they heard that there was food to be served, all the surrounding homeless people rushed up, and they fell into madness almost instantly.
The Dark Guard was a little unable to hold on, and with Qi Changrong's acquiescence, he pulled out a knife and injured a few people, which barely controlled the situation.
The people who got the food thanked one after another, but Qi Changrong was not uncommon with their kowtows, and only said one more word before leaving.
"Three days' worth of food can save you for a while, but it is destined not to save your life, and with this food, it is enough for you to find your next place to stay. If you really have nowhere to go, I heard that Lincheng is recruiting troops recently, so you might want to go and give it a try. "Although Lincheng is chaotic, it is also a world of its own.
Instead of waiting here to die, it is better to fight with your life.
