Chapter 501: Natural Disasters and Wars in the World 49

After the old general tasted the meals cooked by Ling Xue one by one, he was naturally very satisfied. He is usually not very good at these appetites, and he is not often a big fish and meat, so he still likes these home-cooked dishes made by Ling Xue very much.

"You can do this skill, you're about to catch up with the imperial chef in the palace!" The old general had received Ling Xue's sponsorship, and he was almost boasting to Ling Xue to the sky.

Although Ling Xue knew that her skills were good, it was still not a little worse than the imperial chef in the palace.

The old general's praise really made her blush a little.

"It's over, it's over!"

Neither of them was polite people, and the meals Ling Xue had made were swept away by the two of them. Even the big box of vegetable buns made by Ling Xue was eaten by the two of them, and the soup made with tender sweet potato leaves in the pot was also drunk by the old general.

Ling Xue was afraid that he wouldn't be able to eat enough when she saw his turbulent posture, so she underestimated the amount of food the old general had: "Is the old general full, why don't I do it again?" ”

The old general waved his hand and excused himself again and again: "Enough, enough!" It's been a long time since I've eaten so much, and this vegetable bun is very good, and this method can save a lot of food! What a solution! ”

Ling Xue is also a little complacent, it is also a good thing to be able to save more food!

"I have planted so many sweet potatoes, and there are many young leaves of sweet potatoes, we can't eat them all on our own, so let those soldiers come and pick them when you have time!"

The old general was a little embarrassed to take advantage, he thought about it and said to Ling Xue: "That's it, we are very sorry to take advantage of you so much, we don't have any money and food, so we have a lot of strength." Didn't you say that you want to dry the vegetables, let them come and pick the sweet potato leaves for you, and when they leave, just take those for the barracks. ”

Ling Xue is worried about the lack of manpower, the old general's words seem to have opened up Ling Xue's second vein, yes, she is not manpowered, the old general is here!

Ling Xue gladly accepted the old general's arrangement, which would also make the old general feel better, otherwise they would still be reluctant to let these soldiers eat for nothing.

"Okay, then, your soldiers will come and help, and I will provide the soldiers with sweet potato leaves to eat. If there are many, you can also blanch them and store them as dried vegetables, so that you can have one more dish to eat in winter! ”

This arrangement makes both parties happy!

As for whether to invite these soldiers when harvesting sweet potatoes, Ling Xue felt that it might not.

It's not that she doesn't want to give the soldiers more opportunities to earn some food, but Ling Xue feels that by the time the sweet potatoes are ripe, there will definitely be more and more refugees, and this opportunity will definitely be reserved for them.

Thinking of this, Ling Xue called Shen Zhen over to discuss it with him.

"I'm going to ask the refugees to help with the sweet potato harvest, do you think that's possible?"

Shen Zhen also thinks it's feasible, but the details have to be carefully considered.

"It's possible, but the rules must be set in advance, otherwise those refugees will rush up, and we won't have anything left!"

Ling Xue nodded, this is natural, if they are afraid that the refugees will make trouble, they can also invite the old general to come over and sit in the town. At this time, not only the refugees lacked food and drink, but other large and small forces were short of food. Therefore, ask the old generals to sit in the town, not only to prevent refugees, but also to prevent other forces from coming to grab food.

Don't think that these forces don't know about Yunyang City, they are very clear about Ling Xue's cultivation of new grain, but they are now competing for territory, and they can't take out their hands to greet Yunyang Mansion for the time being. But when the grain is ripe, it is not necessarily, and for the sake of food, they are likely to attack Yunyang Mansion.
