Ning Changrong didn't expect to be able to enjoy his daughter's service once, his daughter had cooked before, but the taste was indescribable, and he couldn't talk about enjoyment.

This time it was good, although it was not as delicious as his mother's cooking, Ning Changrong was already satisfied.

After coming back, he washed his hands and took a bite of cakes and a bowl of porridge, accompanied by side dishes, snoring, and the beautiful Ning Changrong narrowed his eyes.

It's five o'clock in the evening, and it's still bright in the mountains, but it's starting to get a little dimmer than in previous months.

"It's getting dark earlier and earlier, and it's still a little unsafe to work at night." Ning Changrong said while drinking porridge.

"Yes, although there are many of us, those beasts will not come here, but if a snake suddenly sphems out at night, you won't be able to see it, so if there is any work in the future, you should try to do it during the day."

When Wang Xiujuan talked about snakes, she thought of the snake behind her son when they first came to the mountainside, and now she still has palpitations when she thinks about it.

"Well, it's safety first." Ning Changrong nodded in agreement.

Put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "I'll work for another hour later, and stop work when it's dark." ”

After eating, Ning Changrong rested for a while and went to work.

Ning Qingxi also ran into his room and wrote and drew on the paper.

……

Tessie County.

"General, there are more and more people in our city, and those people who have run around have begun to enter the city, and our food may have to be given like this again, and it will not be enough for our brothers to eat."

Chang Yuan's right fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, "Has the ground outside been reclaimed?" ”

Ma Honglin responded: "I have already taken half of the brothers in the army to reclaim it." ”

Chang Yuan nodded with satisfaction, "It's too late to grow food now, you can grow some vegetables that can satisfy your stomach, no matter what it is, plant it for me." You are responsible for this matter, what went wrong, I will ask you. ”

Ma Honglin immediately said: "Yes! ”

He said to a man in regular clothes, "Mr. Bai, how is the grain transported?" ”

Bai Yunliang stood up and arched his hand towards Chang Yuan: "General, the team transporting grain is already on the way, I believe it will arrive in a month, but the food in the north is limited, so only a batch can be drawn, if too much is withdrawn, I am afraid that the soldiers will have no food, which will cause a mutiny in the army." ”

"Very good, it is enough to draw a batch, as long as the current urgent need is solved, I believe that the people in the city will be able to survive this winter by relying on the vegetables grown outside the city. It would be nice to plant grain in the spring of the next year. ”

Bai Yunliang hesitated a little and glanced at Chang Yuan, "General, there is something I don't know whether to say or not." ”

"Mr. Bai, please speak." Bai Yunliang is a strategist under Chang Yuan and is highly valued.

Bai Yunliang said: "After dinner today, I heard something in the city, some people have begun to disagree with only two meals of gruel a day, and in the long run, there will definitely be chaos." ”

"When we first entered the city, we bought hearts with food, and we understood it below, but we didn't have enough food to eat, and now we still have to supply them, and some people did not have any gratitude, but began to complain that we gave too little. After thinking about it, I couldn't think of a better way. ”

"I wanted to cut off the food, but in this way, what we did before was wasted, and it was completely in vain."

"But if we keep following their ideas and satisfying them, then we will be dragged down by them sooner or later."

Bai Yunliang sighed after speaking.

Chang Yuan smiled clearly, with a confident look, "Mr. Bai, please rest assured, I already have a way to do this, the previous porridge was to buy people's hearts, and the second was to let them slow down, Hu Dadao collected all the food in the city, many people have been hungry for many days, presumably after drinking the porridge for a few days, their strength has recovered a lot, then they can start working." ”

After Chang Yuan finished speaking, his face turned straight, "Dou Mien, Shengmi Hatred, the desire is difficult to fill, I plan to cut off the supply from tomorrow." ”

"Only the elderly and children who cannot support themselves can receive some gruel to survive,"

"Everyone else gave me all the work, and if I didn't want to do it, I didn't have anything to eat."

Bai Yunliang's eyes lit up after hearing this, "Wonderful! In this way, they will not be dragged down, but they will also be given a way to live, so that the people of the city will not suddenly riot. ”

After finishing speaking, Bai Yunliang was a little ashamed.

"I'm not as good as a general."

Chang Yuan said with a smile: "Mr. Bai, you have helped me a lot of things in the army, if you don't help me sort out the accounts, I don't know how busy I will be every day, don't be presumptuous." ”

Ma Honglin was still confused when he heard this, "General, even if we cut off the soup kitchen, we still have to provide them with errands and let them earn food, and our food is still not enough." ”

"Mr. Bai, you can explain to Hong Lin."

Mr. Bai arched his hand and said to Ma Honglin: "General Ma, although we still have to provide food, it will stabilize in the city, and no one will incite the people to make trouble because we don't have enough porridge." ”

"As for the food problem, the next thing we will provide them with is definitely not all food, the vegetables that General Ma brought people to grow can come in handy, half of the vegetables and half of the grain, plus a batch of grain from the north, can barely survive this winter."

Ma Honglin suddenly realized, "Fortunately, we have been rooted in the north for more than two years, otherwise we really don't know where to transfer this batch of grain for a while." ”

After the meeting ended, Wang Hanting and the others, who had been standing, left, before they walked to Chang Yuan's side: "After watching the execution today, the Ning brothers went out after a few laps around the city. ”

Chang Yuan picked up the teacup on the table, blew it, and took a sip of tea.

"Ning Changrong is a talented person, and his words and conversations are not like ordinary peasant people at all."

Wang Hanting waited for Chang Yuan to say the second sentence, but after Chang Yuan finished speaking, he continued to drink tea.

"Go down. Take good care of your injuries. ”

The next day, Tessie County canceled the free soup kitchen.

There was a slight wave in the city, but it was quickly suppressed.

……

"Sissy, how's it going? Uncle Sun didn't disappoint you, did he? ”

Since he got Ning Qingxi's drawings, Carpenter Sun rushed to work at night, and it took his apprentices a month to finally make this waterwheel.

Ning Qingxi stood under this huge waterwheel, and the whole person looked very small.

In order to facilitate the operation, they lifted all the parts to the river and reassembled.

"Uncle Sun, then let's go into the water and try it now, have the sinks been built?"

Carpenter Sun patted his chest and promised, "Then you can rest assured, our sink has already been built." You see. He pointed to the sinks in the distance that were made of bamboo.

Except for some unhygienic, there are no disadvantages, after all, the conditions are limited, and it is not easy to build this sink with bamboo.
