Dongchu, security base, five o'clock (8:15 p.m.).

Xia Ning and Song Shaoqin each drove into the village under the cover of night.

At this time, the entire Baiyun Village was quiet, except for the lighting lanterns hanging on the side of the road emitting a light yellow light.

Without the attention and onlookers of the villagers, the couple returned to the Song family compound very easily and smoothly.

It's better to go home!

Looking at the familiar courtyard, Xia Ning couldn't help but feel in her heart, I don't know when she started to have a sense of belonging here, and it seems that she has completely adapted to the living habits here, and even regards this place as her home.

Every time she comes back, she feels a sense of home, as if she has a backbone when she comes back here.

Looking at the oil lamps that were lit up one after another in the courtyard, Xia Ning knew that everyone in the Song family was shocked, and it seemed that every time they came back, everyone would greet them warmly.

Perhaps, this is family!

I don't know if it's because I got a marriage certificate with Song Shaoqin, Xia Ning felt that when she saw the Song family again at this moment, the bond in her heart deepened a little, and she seemed to have a greater sense of identification with their family.

"Coming back?"

"Did this trip go well?"

"It's been a hard journey, let's go into the house and rest."

"Yes, yes, let Anbang move the rest."

The ladies of the Song family hurriedly pulled Xia Ning to the hall, and there were all kinds of cold and warm greetings along the road.

Xia Ning smiled patiently, at this moment she finally had a sense of reality that she had become a family member with them, and she also deeply felt the change in her identity.

According to the practice of going out and returning home in the past, Xia Ning and Song Shaoqin gave the family a souvenir, and everyone had a large bag, which was basically used for some food.

This has become a major custom of the Song family.

Every time the two of them came back from overseas, everyone in the Song family was extremely looking forward to and happy, so every time Xia Ning and Song Shaoqin brought back a souvenir, it always opened their eyes and increased their knowledge.

Of course, each gift is very intimate and practical, and it is indeed much better than their native things in Dongchu.

"Okay, put everything away and go back to the room to take a look, it's not too early now, Xiao Ning and Shaoqin are also working the road, let them rest early."

When everyone was happily talking with their own gifts, Mrs. Song opened her mouth to speak, according to everyone's excitement, if she didn't stop it in time, she didn't know when she went?

"yes, let's all disperse."

"It's a little late, indeed."

After listening to the old lady's instructions, everyone immediately put away the discussion, mainly because some of the gifts were different, so everyone couldn't help but share them with each other.

However, everyone was very interested and considerate, and they didn't want to affect the rest of the couple, so they picked up their gifts and went back to their rooms.

Saying goodbye to their families, Xia Ning and Song Shaoqin also went back to the room to rest, in fact, they had already been sleepy, in modern times, they were playing with their mobile phones, and they didn't come back until twelve o'clock.

So their physical state has already entered the time when it is time to sleep, and as soon as they returned to the room, the two of them fell asleep without a little grinding.

**

At the end of October, the security base suddenly received a news that King An officially raised troops to revolt and attacked Beijing!

"What do you think?"

Father Song passed down the creed and asked what everyone thought.

"I'm afraid that this battle will affect hundreds of people."

"I think King An has a good chance of winning."

"The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and there are still some troops in the capital."

"What? The capital seems to be prosperous and powerful, but in fact, the inside has long been festered into mud. ”

"I also think that King An has a great chance of winning, and there is nothing to be afraid of on the court side."

"What we have to think about now is, if King An is really the winner, then how should we deal with it?"

As soon as this topic came out, everyone suddenly fell silent, this is indeed a serious problem worth pondering, after all, everyone knows that King An has been to the base, and he also intends to rein in the Song family.

Although Second Master Song reached a cooperative relationship by sending food, which can be regarded as stabilizing King An, but now the situation is different, if King An really sits in that position, how can he be willing to let go of the Song family so easily?

After all, the Song family represents the hearts of the people to a certain extent, and if the Song family openly stands in the position of King An, then King An will be able to sit in that position more justifiably.

Therefore, the Song family is undoubtedly the best banner, now it depends on how much room for negotiation there is?

Anyway, up to now, their base has delivered food to King An's team twice, adding up to about twenty or thirty thousand catties.

This may not be enough for an entire army, but for a village, this is quite a lot of production.

You must know that the yield per mu of fields in the countryside is generally only two or three hundred catties, and they can provide twenty or thirty thousand catties, which is thanks to the fact that they have new crops with high yields, otherwise they will not be able to reach this trading volume at all.

"Shall we give a crop?"

Village Chief Li broke the silence and took the lead in making a suggestion.

“.”

Everyone was dumbfounded for a while, but this time everyone's silence was more about thinking, and they all understood Village Chief Li's intentions, so they were all secretly pondering the feasibility of this suggestion.

Today, nearly 20 new crops have been cultivated in front of and behind their base, and whether it is vegetables, fruits and grains, they are all high-yield crops that are easy to grow.

Even if it is the same crop, as long as it is the seed provided by Miss Xia, the quality and yield are higher than the original seeds of Dongchu.

In this world, where food is the sky, crops are absolutely the most important material and the greatest internal need.

If they offer a crop as a negotiation, or even exchange bargaining chips, they still have some chance of winning, after all, in today's world, the vast majority of ordinary people still can't fill their stomachs.

And if King An wants to sit on that throne, he must come up with some pro-people measures and decrees to clear his bad words among the people.

So, donating crops is indeed a good breakthrough.

"I think it's feasible, our base is now becoming more and more mature in terms of agriculture, and contributing the same crops will not have any impact."

"In fact, if we give it away, it will be the people who will benefit in the end, so it's okay."

"Even if we really contribute, our base can still be planted, and it doesn't mean that we can't plant ourselves, if we study carefully, we won't suffer."

"It depends on how to control this negotiation process."

After all, when negotiating with the Son of Heaven, you can't ask too much greedily, but you can't let yourself lose, and you have to test the other party's bottom line step by step in this process. (End of chapter)
