198 Recruiting people into the army

The news of the war brought by Zhao Ding did not affect Lin Qianqian in the slightest.

On the contrary, she worked harder to develop her own business, hoping to make more money.

She has a system, as long as she has money, she can buy anything, even if Dachun County is involved in the war, she is not afraid that their family will starve to death.

Her life goes on.

Selling konjac tofu and opening up the white tofu market, she also built an adobe house on a few plots of land near the yard and planted a lot of vegetables.

Now the weather is getting colder and colder, and now that it is winter, there will definitely be very few vegetables on the market at that time.

The days have passed so hecticly, but fortunately, everyone's busyness has been rewarded.

Since the Lin family moved to Dachun County, the business of konjac tofu has skyrocketed again, and Zhou Shaoxuan even sold konjac tofu to Mingzhou and several nearby state capitals.

The tofu business has also officially entered the formalization, and now almost every household in Dachun County buys a few pieces of tofu every day, which is a daily operation.

Daddy Lin and Master Li also have a good grocery store, they specialize in furniture and all kinds of household stoneware, and because of their fair prices and variety, even if their shop is new, it has increased many regular customers.

Everything is moving in a good direction.

A month after Zhao Ding left, news came from the north that the army of Beiyi was pressing the border.

"Oh, how many years have the Beiyi Kingdom and our Great Hong Dynasty not been at war, why are they doing it again now?"

"You don't know, I heard that it's because of the drought, we have a drought here, and there is also a drought in Beiyi, we still have a lot of big rivers here that have not been cut off, but there is no river in that place in Beiyi, they rely on a small area to grow some grain to eat, and they eat beef and mutton at other times, but this year's drought is a big place, and the grassland has long been dried up, I heard that their cattle and sheep have died in large numbers, and now it is snowing heavily in winter, and they can't even gnaw on the grass roots. Don't you come and steal what we eat and drink? ”

"So that's the case, then I need to prepare more food and drink, we are not far from the border between the two countries, in case the Beiyi people call, what can we do?"

"You can pull it down, Beiyi really called, and all the food and drink you prepared fell into the hands of the Beiyi people, didn't you indirectly help the enemy country?"

"yes, what's the matter? Could it be that we are waiting? ”

"You wait, it is said that the imperial court is already organizing the recruitment of people to join the army, young and middle-aged people have to join the army, whether to send them to the north to fight the Beiyi people, or stay in the local area, this is unknown, we don't know if we want to recruit people here."

.......

In the streets and alleys, crowds of ordinary people were discussing the war between the two countries.

Lin Ming'an came to Lin's house and brought a lot of news.

“....... The imperial court recruits people everywhere to join the army, and everyone who has reached the age of fourteen must join the army, and when the time comes, Xiaole and they are estimated to be on the battlefield, and those of us who have not yet made a name for themselves are estimated to go to the army....... Ten years ago, when the Great Hong Dynasty and the Beiyi Kingdom were in the war, there was a history of attacking Dachun County, according to our master's analysis, the war between the two countries is estimated to be not small, if Dachun County is not guaranteed at that time, you first ensure the safety of people and then talk ......"

Lin Qianqian nodded.

As early as when the war between the two countries spread all over the streets, she did not increase the inventory at home, and the konjac and soybeans needed to make konjac tofu and tofu were purchased/purchased in small quantities, and only maintained for a few days.

She didn't dare to plant too much of the newly built greenhouse vegetable house, for fear that after the war reached Dachun County, those vegetables would not be harvested.

The people lived in fear in a tense atmosphere.

But people's fears were useless, and when the Chinese New Year was approaching, the county government of Dachun County suddenly issued an order to "guard Dachun County".

Lin Ming'an's original news of recruiting people to join the army finally officially spread, and men over the age of 14 and under the age of 60 enthusiastically joined the army.

During these days, they could only listen to others talk about the war between the two countries, and they felt afraid and fearful, but when they heard that their homeland would be in danger at any time, everyone was not afraid anymore, and they all volunteered to go to the battlefield.

Father Lin, Lin Mingming, Lin Mingle, Lin Minghe, Li Chengxuan, Sun Xiaoxi, Second Uncle, Fang Qingbai, and Fang Qingmu are all qualified to join the army, and they went to the county government in groups to sign up.

Although the people who stayed behind were worried, they knew better that at this time, they had no room to retreat.

Lin Guangguang and Lin Mingxin, who were still young, were envious of Lin Mingming, they secretly followed Lin Lao's father and them, and finally after being driven back by the people on the county government register, they died of heart, and for this reason, they hung their heads for several days.

After Lin Mingming came back from registering the roster, he said excitedly: "Eldest sister, we don't have to go to the north, we are in Dachun County, the official of the county government said, let us go to the north of the city to train tomorrow, our first task is to defend Dachun County." ”

When the people of the Lin family heard the news, their hearts were relieved.

They don't have to go to the north, it's really the luckiest thing, staying in Dachun County, it's close to home, and they can take care of everything.

Lin Mingming said mysteriously to Lin Qianqian: "Eldest sister, when I registered for the army, I also saw the junior brother, he is now dark and strong, and he speaks loudly, which is completely different from before. ”

Lin Qianqian nodded, thinking that when he met the people from the village who came to the county that day, he asked them to bring the news back.

Since Lin Elementary School ran away from home, Lin Heishan's family has been looking frantically for a long time, but he has never found anyone, and now he has gradually given up.

Now is the time of turmoil, let them know the news of Lin Primary School, they can be less worried.

In view of the fact that Lin Ming and they were about to go to the barracks, the Lin family specially prepared a sumptuous dinner.

Although they are not far from home, after entering the barracks, they will definitely not be able to go home at will, and it is uncertain when they will meet each other.

After Lin Ming passed the excitement of joining the army, he said to Lin Qianqian worriedly: "Eldest sister, we have all gone to the barracks, what about the family's business?" ”

After they arrived in the county, they invited a lot of people, many of whom were young and middle-aged, in order to make tofu and grow vegetables.

Lin Qianqian said with a smile: "It's not in the way, so many people have entered the barracks, there are fewer people eating in the county, and the business will also be affected, the number of orders from many shopkeepers has decreased in the past few days, I will hire some women tomorrow, you don't have to worry about family affairs." On the contrary, if you train well in the barracks, you will learn more skills, and you will be able to protect yourself more on the battlefield. ”

After saying this, Lin Qianqian turned around and went back to his house, bought dozens of daggers from the system in one go, and took them out to distribute them to everyone.

She smiled, "This is a dagger, and you always carry it with you for self-defense." ”

Everyone took a small and sharp dagger, and immediately fell in love.

Lin Qianqian handed the dagger to several women and children in the family: "The people who stay at home also take a handful, no one can say anything about the war, maybe after we wake up one night, Dachun County has been besieged, we must be ready to protect ourselves at any time." ”

In the face of brutal war, people can only do what they can.

In fact, the best weapon for self-defense is a gun, but she can't explain the origin of this thing to everyone, and now everyone is just going to train, and it is not yet time to really face the enemy, and it is really time for them to go to the battlefield, she will equip everyone with some guns at that time, I hope things will not develop to that point.

The night was spent in reluctance, apprehension, excitement, worry and other emotions.

Lin Mingming After they arrived at the barracks for training, Lin Qianqian could only recruit some women to make konjac tofu and tofu, fortunately, these jobs have no technical content, and with a little teaching, the new workers quickly got started.

In addition, there is a lot of noise in the county, and the daily order volume of these two businesses has plummeted a lot, and the remaining manpower in the family, plus the newly recruited dozen women, can barely supply orders.
