Chapter 280: Piggy

November 14 of the fourth year of Jian'an

Bidding farewell to the sergeant who went out on the expedition, the atmosphere in the branch city was low for two days.

The effects of the cloud of war are by no means easy to eliminate.

Even though the Taishou Mansion issued a notice to reassure the people, there was still a rush to buy rice and grain materials in the city.

This is unavoidable in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad.

Gongsun Yan didn't want to intervene forcefully, these things should be done.

She just stepped up the allocation of supplies, opened more affordable grain stores, and supplied them in sufficient quantities.

Cheap grain stores were added to village gatherings.

It's a pity that so many grain stores have been opened, and no family in Lingzhi dares to follow the old path of the Lian family at this time to hoard and raise prices.

This made Gongsun Yan, who had tasted the sweetness out of nothing, a little sad.

While ensuring the supply of rice and grain, more new fund-raising projects have been added to the city.

In addition to the material, Gongsun Yan, the abyssal dead house, also began to move, spiritually appeasing the people's hearts.

Salesian Place

A group of snot-inhaling children, dressed in knee-length robes uniformly distributed in the Salesian Workshop.

They gathered around the Salesian Square garden.

In this well-tended garden, the pond in the courtyard has been filled in to avoid accidents.

There are some wooden slides and small wooden horses.

A smooth and gentle female voice is telling the story of the three little pigs.

"In the end, the three little pigs lived happily ever after."

Gongsun Yan clasped his hands together and tried to tell these children a warm and healing story.

She smiled and raised her face, but saw Gongsun Cheng standing at the front.

The little brother held his fingers in his mouth, not knowing what he was thinking, and suddenly said, "The little pig is delicious!" Fragrant and crispy. ”

Gongsun Yan's expression froze, and sure enough, he saw that all the children were instantly taken crooked by Gongsun Cheng, revealing a coveted look.

A five- or six-year-old boy cooed and swallowed six mouthfuls of saliva.

After two steps, Gongsun Yan could hear the sound of his throat squirming.

"Little boy, is the little pig really delicious?"

Gongsun Yan came out to run public welfare, appeared to stabilize the people's hearts, and wanted to come to the Salesian Hospital, so he took Gongsun Cheng with him along the way.

Let him reach out to children his age.

Children are very interesting with each other, and sometimes their intuition is sharper than that of adults.

Two or three of the most astute of them have already played a lot with Gongsun Cheng.

"Delicious. Before Uncle Tian left, he liked to share my roast suckling pig to eat. ”

Gongsun Cheng didn't know that he had betrayed someone who had lost weight and stolen food, and when he heard his little friend's inquiry, he nodded violently.

"It is said that in addition to piglets, lambs and puppies are also delicious!" The little boy's face showed a look of yearning, "Just like the chick we ate last month." ”

No matter how hard it is, Gongsun Yan always pays more attention to the cubs, and at least guarantees that he can supply a meal of meat every fifteen days.

The little boy's words resonated, and for a while, Gongsun Yan couldn't hear the sound of swallowing saliva in his ears.

A group of children with fingers in their mouths and a rattle.

Gongsun Yan was speechless and found that her little brother Gongsun Cheng was also drooling there.

"Yan Niangzi, can you tell another story?" Among the small gluttons, there are also one or two different.

The little girl with a bun looked at Gongsun Yan with sparkling eyes and asked cautiously.

Gongsun Yan didn't want to control the spread of the Salesian Fang epidemic by himself, so he formulated health regulations, and although the children in the workshop were still yellow and thin, they were not dirty.

This little girl was born exceptionally well.

Gongsun Yan looked at the sky and decided to fulfill her wish.

Looking around at the greedy children, she thought of something, instantly squinted her eyes and smiled, made a look of digging something, and took out a colorful picture book from her sleeve.

The children's novel wah-wah.

She raised her index finger in front of her lips to signal silence.

The children closed their mouths instantly, and looked at her with shiny eyes.

Seeing that their attention was concentrated, Gongsun Yan smiled and opened the album in his hand.

On the first page, there is a pineapple printed on it.

"This is a pineapple, a fruit native to the tropical regions of the Americas, and when ripe, it has a unique aroma, sweet and sour, very delicious."

As she finished reading the album, she heard the sound of saliva in unison.

"Sister, where can I eat this?" Gongsun Cheng was so hungry that he trembled a little.

Compared to pigs, pigs, chickens, etc., at least I have heard of things that I have seen, and this pineapple has never heard of it.

It must be as delicious as the milk fruit on the tree, he imagined.

Regarding Gongsun Cheng's question, Gongsun Yan was not perfunctory, turned out a map behind, pointed to the Americas, and said: "It grows here, it is a far, far place, Ah Cheng can work hard to find it in the future." ”

Not only Gongsun Cheng, but other children all had bright eyes.

Gongsun Yan turned the page with a wicked taste, and it was an American bison: "This is an American bison, huh...... For the time being, let's call it America, who knows in the future. ”

She paused and continued: "This one also grows in the Americas, and one head can weigh up to two thousand catties. ”

The children had no idea about 2,000 catties, so she changed her words: "One head is enough for everyone in the Salesian Yard, and roast beef is the best." ”

Then she happily heard the sound of saliva.

But the little boy next to Gongsun Cheng swallowed his saliva, but shook his head violently: "You can't eat cows, cattle can plow the fields and grow more food and feed many people." ”

"This cow is so big, it must be very powerful, and it can plough a lot of fields."

Unexpectedly, even the child also had such an awareness, Gongsun Yan said with a smile: "However, if we can get a large area of grassland in the north, and more land, grazing and breeding, maybe we can eat all-you-can-eat calves and lambs in the future." ”

The children present all showed yearning looks.

Including Gongsun Cheng.

Even though he was not disadvantaged to eat and drink now, he still remembered the two days when he fled to starve on the branch road.

"One day, I hope you can go to a distant land, whether it's a bison or a pineapple, to find them and bring them back."

Gongsun Yan smiled and closed the album in his hand and stood up.

She saw Zhang walking briskly this way.

She handed the album to Gongsun Cheng and asked him to look at it with her friends.

Gongsun Cheng knew that his sister was going to do business, so he obediently accepted it.

A group of children ran to the side.

Zhang walked over, arched his hand at Gongsun Yanyi, and said in a low voice: "Yan Niangzi, I got the letter just now, and the auspicious treasure tripod sent to Xudu was intercepted by Yuan Xi. ”

When Gongsun Yan heard this, he hooked the corners of his lips: "Very well done." ”

"What about the envoys of Xudu?" She asked.

"Escorted by our people, we have escaped safely and are heading to Xudu."

"Good!" Gongsun Yan nodded and whispered: "Send a message to Linyu and leak the news of Yuan Xi's capture of Baoding to Yuan Tan of Qingzhou through the Linyu merchant ship." ”

"The ranger in Yecheng can also be activated, so that everyone in the city knows - the one who wins the treasure will win the world."

Zhang's heart jumped, and he subconsciously arched his hand and said, "Huh." ”

He listened to Gongsun Yan in a low voice: "Tell Alain to transfer some pork to Salesian Workshop, and ask Ah Qing to teach the cooks here how to make braised pork." ”

Gongsun Yan's topic jumped a little, and Zhang was stunned for a moment before he said, "Yes." ”
