Chapter 429: Famine

Xiaohong's hands were closed one by one, as if she was recalling Xu San's feelings, coupled with her squinting expression at the moment, she was completely a rotten girl in the future.

Turning his head to look at Xiaohong's demeanor, he felt that this girl was definitely born in the wrong era.

didn't follow Xiaohong's topic to talk about it again, otherwise this girl would definitely go too far.

In order not to let his body suffer, Xu San decisively changed the topic, "Qianqian, you can see if there are any good seeds, corn is fine, potatoes are fine, in short, it is a high-yield crop." ”

"Hmm."

Sister Hua agreed as always, but Xiaohong thought a lot, so he asked: "Brother-in-law, you bought so many houses and land, and now you want to improve the seeds, do you want to change careers to collect rent?" ”

Xu San looked at the sky and said calmly, "There will be a big drought in the year after tomorrow, and there may be a great famine, so of course I bought good seeds to store grain!" ”

As soon as these words came out, even the big-hearted Xiaohong's face turned pale, and it took a long time to speak, "You are not a fairy, how do you know?" ”

Posts about the 42-year famine have long been flooded on the Internet, and there is such a classic movie as "1942", so Xu San has a particularly deep memory of that famine, and he also talks about the causes and consequences, "The Battle of Songhu failed, the devil opened the mouth all the way north, and also created the tragic Nanjing Massacre, the road is unstoppable, my China is already on the verge of extinction, Lao Jiang had to blow up the garden mouth of the Yellow River, and a large number of floods rushed out, At the same time, it also caused a large number of floodplains in Henan, and the thousands of hectares of fertile land in the East Henan Plain turned into sandy beaches and rivers, which were all foreshadowing. ”

The two sisters knew about the massacre, but the figure of 300,000 was heard from Xu San.

Hearing Nanjing again today, it inevitably reminded the two sisters of that bloody number again.

The atmosphere was a little cold, even the warm breeze of summer was cool, and after a while, Xiaohong clenched her fists angrily again and said in a calm tone. "We will definitely be able to drive the devil out of China!"

Xu San smiled and said, "That's certain, the devils are in decline now, and they are still making enemies everywhere, I believe that in a few years, they will reap the consequences." ”

Xiaohong nodded, she had always believed in Xu San's words, but she still liked to listen to Xu San's analysis of the causes and consequences, so she continued to ask: "Then how did you know that there might be a big drought and famine in the coming year?" ”

"After the fall of North China, Henan became a necessary place for the devils to attack the Central Plains, and our army also launched large-scale battles with them here, during which the devils launched more than ten large-scale attacks, making the people's lives miserable. Henan itself is one of the country's major grain-producing and military-producing provinces, after such a toss, young and middle-aged people have left their hometowns, and the people's homes basically have no grain stock, and the flood and the disaster of war have made it impossible for a large number of peasants to farm. ”

Speaking of this, Xu San picked up the kettle, took a sip of water, and continued: "I checked a large number of county records and hydrological data when I was too far away, and estimated that there might be a drought the year after tomorrow. We rely entirely on the weather for food, and if there is a drought, it may really be a no-harvest. ”

"Won't the common people carry water themselves?" Xiaohong asked.

"If there is really a major drought, you may not be able to find a place to carry water within a radius of dozens of miles." Sister Hua added with a desolate expression.

"The river is no longer flowing, the wind is no longer howling, the canals are drying up, the earth is cracked everywhere, there are ruins everywhere," Xu San began to describe what he saw in the documentary, but after a few words, he couldn't continue.

Everyone was silent.

How helpless and insignificant human beings are in the face of natural disasters.

The motorcycle slowly moved towards Heian City, and the silence was masked by the low roar.

Sister Hua and Xiaohong are both thinking about what they can do for their fellow villagers in Henan if it is really as Xu San said.

Although Xu San said that he wanted to prepare food, how much could he save with his own strength.

Xu San, who was driving, was also in a heavy mood, because the three million deaths in the history books made his heart seem to be twisted.

If only there was Yuan Lao's hybrid rice.

The sky had turned gray, and the walls of Heian Castle were already in sight.

Xu San stopped the car and said to Sister Hua, "The matter of finding good seeds must be done in secret, and no one can say anything." ”

"Are you afraid that leaking out this will cause panic?"

Xu San nodded and took a faint breath, "There is still a year to do this!" My calculations may not be accurate! I hope my calculations aren't accurate! ”

Sister Hua turned her head to look at Xiaohong, "Did you hear that?" It's a secret! ”

When I entered Ping'an City, it was already dark, and a few cooking smoke wafted into everyone's nostrils with the smell of rice.

"Grunt~" Xiaohong's stomach made a burst of noise.

Xiaohong covered her stomach in embarrassment and asked, "I don't know what my sister-in-law has prepared for us?" ”

"Get on the dumplings, get off the noodles. However, I guess my sister-in-law didn't prepare anything, because she didn't know when we came back. ”

"Hey~" Xiaohong took a breath, "Why don't we buy some back?" ”

In the end, Xu San still didn't buy ready-made, because he still wanted to eat things at home, although he needed to wait, but it was a warm taste, something that could make him feel warm in this troubled world.

The car stopped at the door of the house, and the moment I opened the gate, I saw the little girl and Su Yuan cleaning the yard.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the little girl found Xu San as soon as possible.

Seeing Xu San, she threw down the broom in her hand, ran upside down, and swooped into Xu San's arms, "Uncle, Meizi misses you so much!" ”

"What do you miss me?" Xu San touched her little head lovingly and asked.

"Hmm~" The little girl held her fingers in her mouth, "You can go to buy goods when you come back!" If you don't stock it again, our grocery store will sell out. ”

Xu Sanyi's head was black, but he didn't expect the little girl to answer like this.

Stretching out an arm, he picked her up, "Sell out, sell out, in that case, wouldn't you just be able to rest?" ”

"That's not good, there's nothing to sell, so I didn't mention it." The little girl said seriously, although her expression was serious at the moment, she did look like a fan of money.

Looking at the little girl, Xu San wondered if his cultivation direction was wrong?

However, if you are wrong, you will be wrong!

Money fans are not a disadvantage, they will make money since they were young, maybe they will become a little tyrant in the future?

After a while with Xu San, the little girl soon found that she had grown up as a gray wolf.

So, she left Xu San and ran to the gray wolf, touching its shiny wolf hair, "The gray wolf, you have finally grown up!" ”

"Huh~" The gray wolf raised his head and responded proudly.

"No, you should call Wang~ Come, learn from me, Wang~Wang~" The little girl still persevered and treated the gray wolf as a dog.
