Chapter 157: The Food Problem

"Ahem......"

Mr. Jiang and Mr. Zhou let go and turned their backs with embarrassed faces.

Yun Shu kindly relieved the siege for the two gentlemen, "The hour is coming, let's go down!" ”

Today is not only the day when the people move to their new homes, but also the day when the West Market opens.

Nearly 20,000 people were crammed into more than a dozen buildings, and the food, drink, and Lazar of these 20,000 people were all problems.

So Yunshu built a farmers' market next to the community.

Vegetable greenhouses have been made, and vegetables with short growth cycles such as small oil wheat, small rape, lettuce, bean sprouts, and radish have grown a stubble.

Today, with the opening of the farmers' market, these vegetables will also be put on the counter one by one to meet the people.

Of course, there are also the pigs, cattle, sheep and other meats that the caravans have worked hard to bring back from the south.

In order to store and transport the meat back, Yun Shu can be regarded as racking his brains.

In her original world, there is a well-developed cold chain transportation system, and it only takes two or three days to transport a cargo from south to north.

But it's a fantasy to put it here!

The distance between the north and the south is not only long, but the road is also extremely difficult to walk, coupled with the different climates of the two places, robbers and bandits are frequent, how difficult to say!

But difficulties are meant to be overcome!

The first step is to solve the problem of robbers and bandits, this is easy!

It took less than a month for Si Mo to lead the Si family army to create a trade route for the caravan.

The second step is to solve the problem of cold chain transportation, which is not difficult.

At this time, gunpowder technology had not yet been popularized, and no one had discovered the natural saltpeter ice-making method.

So on an unremarkable morning, Yun Shu performed a freehand ice-making performance for Si Mo and the two cubs.

Simo: Is there going to be a showdown? The daughter-in-law is really a fairy in the sky!

Si Han: My mother is so tired! This is the Immortal Law, right?!

Si Jue: Is there a chemical ice making method? My mother told him about it in a book...

So, reading more books really helps!

After the problem of cold chain transportation was solved, Si Mo personally set out to set up a team of people to be responsible for ice making.

These people are undoubtedly the henchmen of the henchmen, and Ah Er is personally in charge.

Ice-making technology can be used not only to transport meat, but also to make money in the summer.

Nowadays, all families have built ice cellars, and they can use ice at will in the summer when they collect ice and store it in the ice cellar.

The imperial court also built ice cellars in various places, which were used for the payment of officials' salaries and daily sales.

Despite this, the supply of ice is still in short supply in the summer, and the price of ice is getting higher day by day.

People with slightly inferior family backgrounds don't need ice, let alone ordinary people.

Now that the saltpeter ice-making method has come out, it is not yet a source of money to roll in in the summer!

The method of making ice was handed over by Si Mo to the team of henchmen who came from Shuzhou, and they secretly dispersed to important towns across the country, waiting for the arrival of summer...

The farmers' market is a neat row of two-storey buildings, with vegetables and meat sorted, and there is no shortage of grocery stores, cloth shops, clothing stores, and jewelry shops.

At present, these shops are all operated by caravans, and everything is going on in an orderly manner under Han Li's layout.

In two months, the caravan was able to achieve this point, and Han Li's contribution was indispensable.

"This is the vegetable shop..."

"The vegetables in the shop were all just brought from the vegetable greenhouse this morning, and even every drop of dew on them is fresh..."

Who would have thought that such a juicy, green vegetable would be grown in winter?

Han Li's chest was filled with an indescribable sense of pride!

Everything here is the handiwork of Madame, and following Madame is the most correct choice he has made in his life...

Han Li stood in a new green shirt with an intoxicating smile on his face, and he was gentle and handsome.

Simo's black clothes perfectly show the proportions of his body, the bee waist and long legs are fully displayed, coupled with the handsome face that makes people can't take their eyes off, it is really fascinating.

Mr. Zhou and Mr. Jiang also deliberately dressed up today, and the literati are full of grace, and age is not a shackle that prevents the release of charm at all.

Li Jia, Xu Xu, and even the black-clothed swordsman standing next to him with a sword all had an unforgettable face.

Even the little guy who followed the two gentlemen was rare and cute and handsome...

The little lady and the big lady who passed by couldn't help but turn around frequently, and several people even bumped into the person in front of them in a trance...

My good boy! The eyes are not enough to see...

In this line of high-quality male gods with high appearance and high quality, Yun Shu and the two cubs are undoubtedly the existence of the stars.

They firmly occupy the C position and attract countless envious and jealous eyes.

Yun Shu can be regarded as experiencing the happiness of a king!

"This is a butcher's shop..."

Han Li personally introduced and led Yun Shu and his party to visit the farmers' market.

"The butcher shop not only sells raw meat, but also braised meat given by my wife..."

Speaking of this braised pork, Han Li had a stomach full of things to say.

quickly led the local businessmen, and the braised pork contributed a lot.

Talk about business, what restaurant to go to!

A few plates of braised pork and braised vegetables of all colors, a few glasses of wine, and no cooperation can be discussed!

The domineering aroma of braised pork is simply not what they have in their time.

The desire for tongue is really hard to control...

"The young pigs, sheep, cattle and other domestic animals brought back by the caravan have now built dozens of livestock farms, and I believe that it will not be long before Kiyosawa District will be able to achieve meat self-sufficiency..."

Han Li said with a smug face, only Yun Shu smiled bitterly in his heart.

The five districts of Qing City, plus Wei County, are close to more than 100,000 people, and these people are currently dependent on her.

Although the caravan led by Han Li shared some of the pressure for her, the heavy focus was still on her side.

In two months, Yun Shu's accumulated points during this period were almost exhausted.

Although the system can drop a lot of food every day, these are a drop in the bucket.

If the food problem is not resolved as soon as possible, they will inevitably experience food shortages again within a month.

Now there is still a month before the beginning of spring, and spring plowing can only begin after the beginning of spring.

The growth cycle of corn is three to four months, and the growth cycle of potatoes and sweet potatoes is also two to three months...

Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and the food problem needs to find another way...

Yuzhou Xuzhou is close to Jizhou, and most of the people who fled the famine in Jizhou flocked to Yuzhou and Xuzhou.

Nowadays, the grain in these two states is also seriously insufficient, and if you want to get food, you need to go to Yangzhou and Jingzhou, which are more affluent...

Yun Shu's mind drifted a little far away for a while...

Si Mo was the first person to notice the change in Yun Shu's expression, and quietly held Yun Shu's little hand through the cover of his sleeve.

Yun Shu's worries are not his worries.

Feeding the people of a county with the power of one person, Si Mo trembled every time he thought of this in the past two months.

I'm afraid this will have a bad impact on Yunshu...

Fortunately, the people he sent out should be able to get back the news soon...

The temperature on his hand made Yun Shu come back to his senses violently, and when he noticed the abnormality in his hand, Yun Shu showed a sweet smile to Si Mo and held Si Mo's big hand back.

The problem of food is not as difficult as she thought...
