The two of them tossed all morning, and their stomachs were also growling with hunger, and Nalan Jin remembered that she only cared about finding the source of cloth and textiles, but forgot to fill her stomach, and had no revolutionary capital. How to move on.

Gollum!

Dongfang Yi listened to Nalan Jin's stomach constantly drumming, and knew that it was his Five Organs Temple that was silently resisting.

"Hungry, huh? Let's go eat first. Dongfang Yi took Nalan Jin's hand.

"What are those Fengcheng specialties, and there are no light ones to eat? Although my stomach was hungry and playing the drum, half of it was playing the drum in defiance, and it didn't want to eat the greasy stuff. ”

Nalan Jin felt dizzy when she looked at those local restaurants standing in front of her, as if a big braised hoof was waving to her in front of her.

"I know you don't like to eat food here, I'll take you to eat noodles, didn't you say it was delicious last night?" Dongfang Yi raised his eyebrows and hinted.

“…… Is that the guy you said was married here to open the shop? After walking around, I was finally able to eat the food of my hometown, and I haven't had a good meal after coming out for so long. ”

The Nalan family couldn't wait to take Dongfang Yi's hand, and asked the general direction as they walked, Nalan Jin, who liked to buy things so much along the way, was not attracted by the small stalls on both sides.

In my heart, I was thinking about the noodles full of the taste of home.

In fact, I don't particularly like the hungry bowl of noodles, but I've been away from home for a long time, and I miss Nalan Zhen a little, and I just think about things and people with that bowl of noodles.

"Boss, two bowls of noodles." Dongfang Yi said with a smile, sat down to give Nalan Jin backwater, and the water meter warmed his body, "The weather here is really a bit weird, it's so cold in the morning." ”

Nalan Jin couldn't stand the sudden change in weather and sneezed.

"It's like that, it's very cold in the morning, it's mild at noon, and it's hot at night. So some of me didn't get used to the environment here, and I got sick as soon as I came here. "The hostess was very enthusiastic to explain to Dongfang Yi.

In fact, the proprietress also has a feeling of seeing her relatives when she sees Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi. The so-called fellow saw the fellow with tears in his eyes.

"No wonder, all the way over, I thought it was going to snow all of a sudden." Nalan Jin's voice trembled when he spoke.

The proprietress is also an easy-going person, and when she saw Nalan Jin shivering from the cold, she took the clothes she had left in the store to Nalan Jin.

"If you don't dislike it, put this dress on, and then eat a bowl of hot noodles, and it won't be cold for a while." The hostess always had a smile on her face.

"Thank you."

At this time, Nalan Jin only cared about saving his life. There's no time to talk about dislike or not. took the hostess's clothes and wrapped them tightly around her body.

After taking a few sips of hot soup, my body was a little warmer, and I felt like I was about to freeze when I couldn't speak.

"It's so much better, just almost

I didn't send me away from freezing. Nalan Jin said teasingly, "I look at Fengcheng, it's quite fertile. The signature dish in every restaurant is either meat or meat, and there is no dish at all. ”

Nalan Jin eats your long-lost little pickles, and feels like she has lived the life of the Empress Dowager Cixi. I never dreamed that in her lifetime, she would still hate eating meat.

"I also think it's a little strange, hasn't anyone in Maple City thought about growing vegetables?" Dongfang Yi pinched his chin.

The proprietress put down the big colander in her hand, turned around and hesitated, not knowing how to explain. sat next to Nalan Jin and paused for a long time before he spoke.

"You don't know, there is a shortage of food here, and you can eat it occasionally. That was already the luckiest thing of the year. The proprietress stared at the pickles on the table and frowned distressedly.

Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi both looked at each other suspiciously, and then shifted their gaze to the proprietress of the boss. I feel like what she said was a bit exaggerated.

"This ...... How is it possible, I don't think this Maple City has no place to plant, how did it become a luxury? Dongfang Yi raised his head and looked outside.

The proprietress smiled wryly and went to add a fire to the stove. Her actions made Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi even more incomprehensible. I suddenly had the illusion that this Maple City was a barren land.

"This maple city...... Probably because of the weather. No matter what kind of vegetables are grown, nothing is found, and the reason why every restaurant here sells meat and not vegetables is because camels are everywhere, and vegetables are more precious than blood. The pickle you ate was brought to me by my mother's family, and I pickled it before I was willing to eat it. ”

The proprietress said that Nalan Jin's action of eating food stopped instantly, and she felt that she had committed an unforgivable sin. It's just a small plate of pickles, but it's more expensive than life.

"What the hell is this place, don't you have anyone trying to find a way to reverse this predicament?" Dongfang Yi was a little incomprehensible, and he was anxious for them.

"Why not? Everyone thought of countless ways, but they couldn't resist the weather here, and after trying and failing again and again, everyone gave up. The helplessness on the face of the proprietress made her accustomed to the climate here.

"It's a miracle that so many people are still alive here. You are also from the Central Plains, why don't you bring your family back to the Central Plains with you? Nalan Jin put the chopsticks on the chopsticks and looked at the proprietress seriously.

"There is a saying that marrying a chicken is a chicken, and marrying a dog is a dog. The person I married is here, how can I go back? So I can only make myself pleasing to the eye, the climate here, in fact, has been used to it for so many years. The proprietress looked at Nalan Jin and smiled.

Nalan Jin had nothing to say, so she had to smile back.

Dongfang Yi roughly recalled the geography and climate of Fengcheng, which is indeed quite unique.

chatting with the proprietress made Nalan Jin feel like a fish in her throat in an instant, and it was difficult to swallow the warm pasta.

"Wait until we get back a chance

I'll be sure to bring you a lot of vegetables. So you don't have to worry about running out of food again. Nalan Jin clenched his fists and promised, "Actually, I think the living conditions of the people here are quite good." ”

"Actually, that's just scratching the surface. There was a famine in the entire Maple City every year, so they had to kill all the camels they relied on to survive to make a living. The proprietress looked at the restaurant opposite.

"But I see that you seem to be ...... here" Nalan Jin stopped talking, looking at Dongfang Yi next to him, he shook his head, and asked her to be cautious when she spoke.

"I was also born in a poor family in the Central Plains. I also grow more or less with my parents, and I grow the pasta you eat, but the people here don't like to eat pasta. The proprietress lowered the corners of her eyes helplessly, looking at the inventory that had been piled up in the corner for a long time.

Nalan Jin and Dongfang Yi didn't speak anymore because they didn't know what to say. Their meager strength alone can't solve the famine in Fengcheng every year, and they can't help the life of the proprietress.

If you talk too much, you can only add trouble to others.

When the two of them left the proprietress shop, they both felt very heavy. Although the sun outside was already scorching, they still felt bitterly cold.

It is said that under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.

With such a climatic situation, no matter how wise and powerful the emperor is, diligent and loving the people, it is impossible to solve it for them.

It can only provide them with some needs, after all, far water cannot quench their thirst.

Nalan Jin didn't speak until he returned to the inn, and Dongfang Yi thought that he was affected by what the proprietress said and didn't eat enough.

"Or ...... I'll ask the store again to see if there's anything else to eat. Dongfang Yi felt sorry for Nalan Jin, worried that her body would not be able to stand it sooner or later if she stayed here for a few days without eating or drinking.

"I'm not hungry." Nalan Jin was still pondering and didn't say a word.

"Seeing that you didn't speak all the way, I thought you were hungry and had no strength, drink a cup of herbal tea to quench the fire." Dongfang Yi took the herbal tea prepared by the inn to Nalan Jin.

“…… You say, if we can solve the famine here, in exchange, will the factory owners agree to teach us the art of weaving? Nalan Ling stared at him and turned his head to look at Dongfang Yi.

Dongfang Yi frowned, feeling that Nalan Jin was a monster, what kind of bizarre ideas could always pop out of her mind.

"Yes, yes, but are you sure to turn the tide here, this is a law that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, and it is not something that you can change if you say change." Dongfang Yi asked in confusion.

Dongfang Yi gave Nalan Jin a preventive shot in advance and poured some cold water on her, and when she couldn't do it, she began to blame herself for a long time.

"There must be a way for me to think so, but I need your cooperation to help me. In any case, I must learn this textile technique. Nalan Jin said in an accentuated tone, affirmatively.

"Huh? No matter how much I help, I'm not going to reverse the climate here

。 Dongfang Yi suddenly felt a chill in his back.

"No, there is a saying called natural selection, survival of the fittest. Since the climatic conditions here are already destined to be unchangeable, there is only obedience to him. Not everything can be done, I can't grow here. Nalan Jin pushed open the window and looked outside. People walking in a hurry.

"You have to mean ...... Looking for the right crop to grow here? Dongfang Yi seemed to understand what Nalan Jin meant.

"Is there anything else you can do? If you want to learn textile technology, you must have the conditions of equivalent exchange, and there is a famine here every year, and the crop particles are not harvested, which is the capital of equivalent exchange. ”

Nalan Jin clarified the cause and effect relationship in three or two sentences. Let Dongfang Yi listen to it at a glance.

For the sake of textile technology, Dongfang Yi also agreed to look for crops suitable for growing here.

After the two of them decided, they conducted a rigorous analysis of the soil here. Because he hadn't cultivated for a long time, it was difficult for Nalan Jin to make an analysis from the soil on the epidermis.
