After calming down, Li Ru found Jiang Hua.

"Have you ever seen a sweet potato?"

"Sweet potato, what is this?" Jiang Hua scratched his head and wondered: "Is it something from Fanbang? Isn't this thing only visible to the court paying tribute?

"You misunderstood, sweet potato is a plant, this plant has a big root like a fist, the skin is vermilion, the taste is crisp and juicy when eaten raw, it is soft and glutinous and sweet when cooked, and the taste is very good!"

Li Ru tried his best to explain, but saw Jiang Hua licking the corners of his mouth, looking like a gluttonous worm, his eyes were confused, and his mind was obviously attracted by the smell!

In desperation, I had to take a pen and paper, draw a rough picture according to the impression in my mind, and hand it to Jiang Hua.

Seeing that the stems and leaves on this picture were connected with the sweet potato at the bottom, a trace of curiosity appeared in Jiang Hua's eyes, and he muttered: "Your Highness, there is still such a strange plant?

Hearing this, Li Ru sighed in his heart: Stop cooking! Sweet potatoes are such a good thing! Could it be that there is really no existence in this Dalong territory?

"But Da Long is a big land, and some people may not be able to say if they have seen it! Your Highness, the last general will take this picture and ask them one by one!"

After Jiang Hua finished speaking, he happily took the drawings and retired.

After waiting for a while and not seeing him come back, Li Ru couldn't help but feel a little anxious, and at this moment, Jiang Hua carried a young man and ran over excitedly.

"Your Highness, I found it! This guy has seen sweet potatoes!"

The young man was carried by Jiang Hua all the way, his face turned blue after the bump, and he almost didn't vomit, but he slowed down for a while before he said respectfully: "Prince, I've seen this thing, it looks very similar to a weed on the mountain in my hometown, in the past, we were so hungry that we had no choice, so we would go up the mountain to dig this weed!"

When Li Ru heard this, he was overjoyed: "Where is it? Take me quickly!"

"It's in the middle of this pass," the young man looked a little embarrassed, frowned and said: "The disaster is spreading, everything that can be eaten has been eaten, there is not much left, and now the snow is closing the mountain, and it is even more difficult to find."

Hearing this, Li Ru couldn't help but sigh lightly, helpless in his heart.

This sweet potato is very resistant to grassland and can survive in extremely harsh environments, as long as it is planted properly, the yield is very large.

The key is to be full, to have this thing, it is much easier for refugees to fill their stomachs!

"Since you have seen sweet potatoes, then you are responsible for teaching others, you pay attention to any plants similar to this sweet potato on the side of the road along the way, if you find it, I will reward you!"

"Okay, the little ones will do it!"

After sending the young man away, Li Ru looked at the snow around him, quite helpless.

I know where the sweet potato is likely to be hidden, but I can't do anything.

You can't help but hurry and stay here looking for sweet potatoes, right? Disaster relief will not be delayed for long, and if you don't find it, the situation will only get worse.

The procession continued for three days until it entered the territory of Nakcheon.

What puzzled Li Ru was that Luochuan was a rich place in the big and small areas, but since entering Luochuan, the number of refugees encountered had increased instead of decreasing.

And most of them escaped from Luochuan City.

asked Jiang Hua to bring over a group of refugees, looking at their torn jackets and purple faces, Li Ru couldn't help frowning: "What kind of situation is this? You are the people of Luochuan City, why are you so miserable?"

When the refugees heard this, their eyes were frightened, their eyes were evasive, and they couldn't say all their words, Li Ru saw this, waved his hand, and ordered Jiang Hua to let people bring them warm clothes.

Wearing warm clothes, the refugees' impression of Li Ru changed greatly, and they bowed their heads and wept bitterly: "Official, you don't know, Luochuan City is very taxed, the people are not happy, the small ones are poor and can't open the pot, and the cold clothes are pawned to change food." ”

"Now in the event of a snow disaster, in order to cure the disaster, the imperial court has increased taxes, and I really can't survive, so I can only choose to escape. ”

"Is there anything else about this?" Li Ru frowned, this disaster relief was paid by the imperial court, how could it be impossible to increase taxes to make the people pay for it, and the disaster relief itself was for the people! Now let them pay for it? Isn't this a big joke in the world?

Frowning and thinking about it, Li Ru figured it out, and it was the officials of Luochuan City who did a good thing to deceive their superiors!

patted his chest and said categorically: "You guys go back to Luochuan City, I promise that a large amount of food will be distributed!"

When the refugees heard this, they were stunned, with a look of disbelief in their eyes, and they muttered, "Is there really food?"

"Of course, you don't look at who the person in front of you is, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today," Jiang Hua pouted.

When the refugees heard this, their faces were ecstatic and they kowtowed one after another.

Tell the other refugees about it.

A group of people happily looked in the direction of Luochuan City.

Nakcheon Castle.

The news of His Royal Highness the Prince's arrival spread far and wide, and the city guard hurriedly led a group of people to greet him at the city gate.

The city guard has no beard, his face is full of oil, his round belly is quite rich, his brocade hat and ermine fur, and a snow-white mink coat is draped over his body, and the whole person looks like a big white bear.

Seeing him dressed like this, Li Ru became angry.

Damn, like a landlord and old wealth, he is even more extravagant than what the prince wears! Snorted coldly: "You are the captain of the city guard? You are doing a very good job!"

The city guard couldn't figure out Li Ru's temper, but he thought about stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, so he bowed respectfully, and stammered: "Xiaguan is exact, His Royal Highness the Son of Heaven has praised it falsely, you came from afar, and you missed the welcome, so I specially set up a banquet for you in Xingyue Tower, and washed the dust for you!"

Li Ru seemed to see what kind of fame this guy was doing, so he didn't say anything, and bowed his head slightly.

When he arrived at Xingyue Tower, he saw many middle-aged people wearing mink coats waiting here, Li Ru couldn't help sneering: "I heard that this place is rich, and it is true, all of them are wearing mink coats, good, very good!"

"These are all the squires in our Luochuan City, and when they hear the arrival of His Royal Highness the Prince, they all want to see the honor!"

The city guard said with a smile, and with a clap of his hands, two soldiers came over with a large package, and when they opened it, it was a large mink cloak.

Li Ru saw this, and the corners of his mouth hooked: "What does Lord City Guard mean by this?"

The city guard quickly picked up his coat and put it on Li Ru, Li Ru laughed, and followed him into the Xingyue Tower, feeling more and more awe-inspiring.

Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.

Looking at the good wine and good food on the table, delicious and delicacies, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, sat down with a smile, and said to everyone: "This disaster relief, I want to make some merits for the emperor to see, since you are so enthusiastic, I don't know what to think?"

When the big guy heard this, his face was embarrassed.

The city guard sighed and replied, "Since ancient times, there has been no way to face natural disasters and manpower, only to blame the people for their misery!"

"Really?" Li Ru hooked the corners of his mouth and sneered: "I don't think you have heard of my name! When you meet me, if you don't do things well, your policewoman will suffer!"

After speaking, he stood up with a bang, and with a sound of "Zheng", Shang Fang's sword was pulled out suddenly, aimed at the table in front of him, and slashed down with a sword.

With a "boom", the table instantly split into two, and with a "bang", the dishes all fell to the ground and fell apart.

"Open the warehouse tomorrow and release grain, and let the refugees enter the city in batches!"

"If there is a disobedient person, and the yang is a violator, my sword will not be spared!"
