Chapter Eighty-Seven: Three Thousand Pounds of Rice

It's the first day of work, and how many pairs of eyes are watching.

If she doesn't get food on the first day, then even if she makes up for it tomorrow, her credit will be greatly reduced.

What to do......

"Yan Shu, I've calculated it, come over quickly."

At this time, Qu Wanwan had already opened his mouth to call her, Yan Shu looked up, and saw a man covered in sweat and black and red skin standing beside Qu Wanwan with his hands rubbing his hands, looking at her with a worried and excited face.

Yan Shu stubbornly walked over.

Qu Wan leaned over and looked at the small book in Fu Zhuo's hand.

"Chen Weizhu is responsible for picking banana leaves, and today he picked a total of 200 catties, which can be exchanged for four catties of grain."

The words fell zigzag, and Yan Shu didn't move for a long time.

All of a sudden, everyone around became nervous, and they all frowned and looked at Yan Shu, for fear that they would not be able to get food today.

Yan Shu took a deep breath and just wanted to explain, when at this moment, a high-pitched and loud voice suddenly came.

"On the orders of the captain, I came to send rice to Miss Meng, a total of 3,000 catties, and asked Miss Meng to come out for acceptance."

Yan Shu was stunned when he heard this.

How could Manyuesha suddenly send someone to bring her rice, this is too timely.

She got up and greeted her.

The Fu family hurriedly followed.

The villagers hurriedly made way for her, and they all looked relieved.

"Now I'm not worried that Miss Meng won't be able to get food."

"Three thousand catties of grain, my God, how could Captain Manyue send so much rice to Miss Meng?"

"I've heard a little about this, it seems that Miss Meng is well-informed, and she has offered a plan to Captain Manyue, and she has made a great contribution, and Captain Manyue rewards her."

"It's been fifteen years since I was exiled to this island, and in the past, we paid food to the Borneo, and this is the first time I've seen anyone get food from the Borneo, and Miss Meng is too powerful."

"No, the first time I saw her, I knew that this girl was not an ordinary person......"

Everyone talked about it, but Yan Shu didn't care.

When she walked to the gate of the courtyard, she saw more than a dozen caretakers, pulling two carts full of rice waiting at the gate of the courtyard.

She asked Fu Zhuo, Fu Lin and Qu Wanwan to come forward to count and check the grain, and she walked to the person in charge.

"This lord, dare to ask why Captain Manyue suddenly brought me food?"

That person often saw Manyuesha and Yan Shu talking back and forth, and he didn't dare to snub Yan Shu, so he hurriedly replied when he heard the words.

"I don't know the specifics, an hour ago, the captain went to the warehouse and walked around, and when he came out, he ordered us to load the grain and send it to you."

Yan Shu nodded when he heard this.

It should be that Manyuesha saw the verification results and knew that she didn't lie to her.

The effect of dried kelp is good, otherwise although it is not your own rice, it would be a pity that all the good grain is moldy and spoiled.

As for the amount of food that the crescent yarn gave her......

Although Yan Shu had never been to the warehouse, and she didn't know how much rice was in the warehouse in Nanhuang Village, through her understanding of Manyuesha during this time, she believed that Manyuesha would not lie to her.

"Fortunately, everyone has come all the way to bring me food, I will let the family put the goods, you can come in and sit for a while, drink saliva and rest."

Several people hesitated for a moment when they heard this, and then agreed.

Nanhuang Village is so big, and the news spreads quickly, and they have already heard that there are a few people of the same clan who would rather stay here to work for Yan Shu than go back because of Yan Shu's food here.

If they can, they want to see and see too.

I don't know what they are thinking in their hearts, so they beckoned people into the courtyard, and Yan Shu asked Shen Zhuxin to help pour water for a few people.

A group of people carried the water in bamboo tubes, and they didn't care at first.

But when I raised my head and took a sip, I was stunned.

"This ...... Is this sure it's clear water, not sugar water? ”

"yes, why doesn't it smell earthy at all, and it's even sweet."

"I've grown up so big here, it's the first time I've drunk such sweet water, sure enough, the rumors are all true, Miss Meng's things here are not ordinary."

“……”

A group of guards drank water and whispered, and Shen Zhuxin raised his chin with honor.

Since the outbreak of dysentery on the island, Yan Shu not only told them not to drink and eat casually outside, but also asked her to go to the cave every day to carry a few buckets of water back, drink water and cook, and use this mountain spring water.

So far, none of them have seen anyone who is unwell.

Yan Shu didn't pay attention to this.

Throwing the person to Shen Zhuxin to greet her, she turned her head and went to the front to settle the food for the people who were working.

The five people who dig the coconut meat have not yet started their work, and they will not settle the account for the time being.

Now the settlement is for palm fruit picking and banana leaf picking, a total of fifteen people.

The people who picked the fruit were counted and counted, and the ten people picked a total of 1,500 palm fruits and 1,000 coconuts.

and a total of two thousand five hundred fruits.

Fifty fruits are exchanged for one pound of grain, and a total of fifty catties of grain are exchanged, and everyone gets about five catties of grain.

The five people who picked banana leaves picked a total of 1,600 catties of banana leaves.

Fifty catties of banana leaves were exchanged for one catty of grain, and a total of thirty-two catties of grain were exchanged.

Five people didn't get their hands, about six pounds.

It's not much, but you must know that in today's situation, their family goes out to find food for a day, and it may not be able to maintain so much stability.

Not to mention that they can do the work alone, and it doesn't affect the family to go out to find food.

Yan Shu divided the rice and exchanged it for the fifteen people, and explained that they could continue to pick the rest of the time, and the sooner they sent the fruits and banana leaves every day, the better.

The crowd responded happily and planned to bring the food home, so they went on to work.

Many people who were watching nearby saw these fifteen people carrying food to their homes, and they were even more envious, and they were very eager to recruit Yan Shu again.

After getting the raw materials, the Fu family no longer delayed, and hurriedly began to work.

Yan Shu watched from the side for a while, and felt that the laborious work of grinding fruit puree and grinding rice noodles seemed to be able to recruit some more people......

But it was already a bit risky to recruit people to dig up coconut meat, and after a certain time, Yan Shu did not plan to let these people participate in the production for the time being, after all, she had to ensure the safety and hygiene of the brown sugar cake she made.

The Fu family was busy, and Yan Shu was idle.

As soon as she turned her head, she saw several of the guards still sitting in the courtyard.

She wondered to herself.

The rice has been in good condition for a while, and this group of people has also drunk a lot of water, so they should have rested enough, why don't they leave......

When Yan Shu was puzzled, Shen Zhuxin's heart was like a ghost, and he didn't know where he floated over.

"I heard them gossip, they were very curious about our food, and they probably wanted to have dinner here."

"No, you can't."

Yan Shu refused.

One or two people are fine, seventeen or eighteen people, how much food do you have to eat?

It's already hard for her to support her family with almost twenty mouths, and she can't afford to have more.
