The girls sitting around Zhu Lingxiang looked at her with a flattering face.

"Sister Lingxiang, Second Highness wouldn't have to build the Proton Mansion in Shuanglong City because you are here, right?"

"I think he must also like Sister Lingxiang, maybe because of his health, he refuses to delay Sister Lingxiang's happiness."

"Uh-huh, it must be, otherwise if you don't go to the good capital, why build the Proton Mansion here?"

Zhu Lingxiang's face was full of excitement, and he felt that everyone's analysis was reasonable, if it weren't for her, what would he be doing in this ghost place?

He must have found that there was no one else in this world who loved him more than her, so he changed his mind.

Since he is so sincere and willing to build the Proton Mansion in Shuanglong City to suffer with her, then she can't forgive him!

As long as he sincerely asks her for marriage, it is not impossible to marry him.

Zhu Lingxiang thought about it beautifully, his mind was full of Gu Changgong's handsome and slightly arrogant face, and he couldn't wait to see him.

was silent and told Xu Jingting.

"You have been asking the lieutenant more during this time, and when Chang Gong enters the city, I will go to the city gate to greet him in person."

"Okay." Xu Jingting nodded hurriedly.

In the evening, Xu Jingting's sisters went home from Zhu's mansion.

Their current home is also in the town, and it is a shoddy wooden house.

In the mud brick stove room, Aunt Zhao was cooking with her head in the tent, and Xu Wanjun and Mrs. Pang were sitting under the palm trees in the courtyard, playing banana fans to cool off.

Since beating Xu Jingting and climbing to the captain, their family has eaten and drank, and they have not suffered much on the road.

However, after arriving in Shuanglong City, they were in trouble, and none of them knew how to cook, and the housekeeper and a few housekeepers had already run away, and there was no one to wait for them.

The job of waiting for people can only fall to Aunt Zhao now, these days, cooking for everyone to eat.

After barely cooking the rice, the family sat around the table and made a bowl of half-cooked rice.

Old Madam Pang took a bite into her mouth.

"Sirp, the rice is not cooked, how can I eat this?"

Mrs. Pang slapped the chopsticks on the table, and her triangular eyes slashed at Aunt Zhao, and her eyelids could catch people.

"You're really useless, how many days have you been? Can't even cook a meal! ”

When Aunt Zhao heard this, she was so angry that she also threw her chopsticks.

"Mother, if it's not cooked, you can cook it yourself! You've been in the country for half your life, so you can't even cook, right? ”

Old Madam Pang was so angry that her eyes almost popped out.

"You, you turned against you, and you still dare to fight back?"

Aunt Zhao was even more angry.

"Why can't I fight back? Nowadays, which family does not go to the mountains and forests to open up wasteland and farm? Your mother and son are good, lying at home every day sighing, if this continues, after half a year, the food supply will be cut off, how can our family survive? ”

After listening to Gu Changgong's words the first night, the next day, Xu Jingan relayed this important matter to Feng Yongsheng.

Feng Yongsheng hurriedly called the big guys together for a meeting.

After the people in the village sat down on the beach, Feng Yongsheng glanced at the big guy.

"At the moment, we have two choices, one is to move back to the vicinity of the city gate, where we can receive supplies, and the situation may be better than now."

"The second is to stay here, build houses on your own, and open up land, but life may be a little more difficult."

"Let's discuss it and see how to choose."

As soon as Feng Yongsheng's voice fell, there was a lot of discussion on the scene.

"We have rice, grain and wood, what are we tossing? Naturally, it's better to stay here. ”

"But we don't have farming tools, we only have a few sickles and wood knives in our hands, and we can't even clean the foundation."

"Yes, if the land can't be reclaimed, after half a year, what will we eat when the Northern Liang Army runs out of food?"

"Even if we can reclaim the land, there are no seeds, so it's really hard to stay here!"

Everyone shook their heads as they spoke, and even Feng Yongsheng frowned deeply and made a difficulty.

"Miss Xu, what do you think?" Seeing that the matter was not easy to solve, Feng Yongsheng habitually looked at Xu Jingluo.

Xu Jingluo said without thinking: "I think staying is the best choice, there is no need to go back to the city gate to be enslaved." ”

Slaves?

This word is a wake-up call.

As long as someone tries to get something for nothing, they will think of oppressing others and enslaving others, and from this point of view, staying here is the best choice.

But I was worried that there would be no farm tools, which made people entangled.

At this time, Xu Jingan suddenly ran over from the mangrove forest and shouted excitedly.

"The owner, the fourth sister, a large number of hoes, sickles, and firewood knives have been found on the big ship, send someone to carry them."

These things were bought by Xu Jingluo after selling the lynx skin, bought in the space mall, and left them in the cabin, these things were just needed and had to be paid.

"Farm implements? That's great. ”

Everyone was overjoyed, thanking God as they went over there to carry farm tools.

Carry out all the farm tools, a hundred hoes, fifty sickles and firewood knives, so that the tools for reclaiming the land are complete.

"Now that the farm tools are available, can everyone stay with peace of mind?" Feng Yongsheng glanced at everyone with an inquiring gaze.

"To stay, of course, is to stay." Everyone spoke in unison.

Now that you have everything, what's the reason to leave here? As for the seeds, you can send someone to the city to buy them at that time, and it will be much easier to walk when the jungle is opened, and it should not take much time.

Feng Yongsheng nodded and looked at Xu Jingluo again.

"Now that the Emperor's will has changed, should our strategy also be changed?"

"Stretch the distance between the houses of each family and occupy all the seaside?"

"Mmmm, that's what I thought too." Xu Jingluo said, "The reason why I wanted to build a house in one place was also for the sake of safety, but now, there should be no need to think about safety anymore, it won't be long before this land will be occupied, and what kind of beast can't be killed by human beings?" ”

Everyone understands this truth and nods in agreement.

Next, Feng Yongsheng and several other family heads discussed and re-arranged.

It is better to decide whether each family should act separately and open up their own land.

Since they want to settle here for a long time, it is naturally the best thing for them to choose their favorite locations to build houses and reclaim land.

"It's still the same as before, rice, flour, grain, oil, farm tools, etc., all distributed proportionally to the heads of all ethnic groups, and they will be distributed to the households by you."

"The timber is uniformly transported, the houses are built uniformly, and the men who do the carpenter's work work harder, and if they light the torches at night and work for a few more hours, it will not be a problem to repair a wooden house in a day."

"At this rate, everyone's house can be repaired in less than a month."

"This room next to the waterfall is inhabited by Miss Xu's family, do you have any opinions on this arrangement?"

Everyone replied in unison, "There are no opinions, they all listen to the arrangement of Master Feng." ”

"Alright, we'll distribute all the supplies now."

Gu Changgong heard this, and said lightly: "Why is General Sun so indecisive in doing things? ”

Sun Yanling poured a glass of wine for each of them and asked, "What do you say, Lord Qincha?" ”

Gu Changgong and Ning Yichen glanced at each other and were silent.

At this time, in the backyard of the General's Mansion, several women were washing clothes.

A young woman, who was a little younger, said to the eldest lady who was very busy: "Auntie, just let the new little girl do this kind of rough work!" You just have to rest. ”

The eldest lady stopped what she was doing, raised her head and asked, "Okay, by the way, let me ask you, how is the house in the past few days?" ”

The young woman lowered her voice and said, "General Sun has arrested all the messengers sent by the imperial court, and he is making a lot of trouble!" ”

Xu Jingluo, who was drying the sheets, immediately panicked when he heard this, and the sheets in his hand accidentally slipped to the ground.

After a pillar of incense, when it was time for lunch, Xu Jingluo held the bowl with chopsticks and was in a daze.

Seeing this, the eldest lady couldn't help but ask, "Girl, what are you doing in a daze?" Eat fast! ”

As she spoke, she picked up a dish with chopsticks and put it in her bowl.

Xu Jingluo bowed slightly and said, "Thank you, auntie." Auntie, do you say that since the general's wife is Princess Jinxuan, who is the empress dowager's own title, that is, a member of the emperor's family, will she agree to take refuge in Wu Guirong? ”

The eldest lady pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know, I seem to have heard that at the beginning, the general's wife was the most opposed, but in the past two days, she said that she wanted to take refuge." ”

When Xu Jingluo heard this, he said with a puzzled expression: "What's going on?" ”

The eldest lady said seriously: "You know what? Since his wife agreed to take refuge, he has been placed under house arrest for some reason. No one was allowed to see her, only the girl who delivered the food could go in, and I hadn't seen her happy since she entered the house. It seems that this big day is not easy either! ”

Xu Jingluo listened, and his heart was mixed.
