Zhu Ruru received the sweet potatoes and potatoes in his hand, and originally planned to find someone from the government, or Jiang Xing, or a merchant in the town, to help sell them.

Now, because the government has begun to mobilize the people of the entire Hai'an Town to open up the wasteland and farm.

The sweet potatoes and potatoes they harvested this time in the wasteland don't need to be sold, they can be left to be seedlings.

As soon as everyone heard that Zhu Ruru could be purchased here, they came over to inquire about the situation.

"Ruru girl, can you take as much as you have here?"

"Yes, take as much as you want." Zhu Ruru nodded.

So, those who couldn't fit in the cellar at home, and those who felt that they couldn't eat too much anyway, and it was better to exchange more silver, all took them and sold them to Zhu Ruru.

Although the price she offered was a little cheaper than the market price, after all, she could take as much as she wanted, and they didn't have to pick it up on the street to sell it slowly.

This price is already very conscientious.

In a few days, the two large cellars and warehouses that Zhu Ruru built in advance were all full.

……

The people of Zhu Ruru's village are harvesting sweet potatoes and potatoes in full swing.

The people of the government are not idle, and they are mobilizing the people of Hai'an Town to step up the reclamation.

At the same time, Zhu Ruru found someone to let go out.

secretly publicized that the sweet potatoes and ground eggs they planted in the wasteland could harvest thousands of catties per mu.

"Have you heard? Someone planted sweet potatoes and ground eggs in the wasteland, and it is said that one acre can harvest thousands of catties! ”

"A few thousand pounds? This, how is this possible? The fertile fields we have planted for many years can only grow a few hundred catties, and it is only seven or eight hundred catties when we reach the sky, and the grass didn't grow on that wasteland before, right? How is it possible to grow so much food? ”

"Your news is outdated, grass has long been planted in the wasteland, and I heard that it is still very lush."

"Yes, yes, that's the grass growing in the wasteland, that's what happened last year. As for sweet potatoes and ground eggs, it is said that someone planted them a few months ago. That man was still a very kind person, and later led the whole village to open up the wasteland and plant, as if hundreds of acres of new land had been cleared at once, and now it can be harvested. ”

"Yes, now that the government has mobilized us to open up the wasteland, I heard that it was the good man who said that he would teach everyone in Hai'an Town to plant that kind of sweet potatoes and ground eggs, and it was free to teach, and then we only received hundreds of dollars for seedlings......

"God, there are such good people in this world? No, I'll have to see for myself. ”

"I'll go with you."

…… As soon as these words spread out, many people in the entire Hai'an Town came to the wasteland to watch the excitement.

After seeing it with their own eyes, they were naturally completely convinced.

In the wasteland, it is really possible to grow large and round sweet potatoes and ground eggs.

Their eyes were extremely red, and they hurriedly ran to the government to inquire about the situation.

The people in the government told them that someone would really teach them to plant, and they only needed to give them some money for seedlings.

If you are really in difficulty, as long as you register, you can also receive seedlings for free at that time.

Therefore, there is no need for the government to mobilize, and many people take the initiative to carry hoes on their backs to open up wasteland.

In less than a month, on average, everyone in Hai'an Town has cleared nearly two acres of land!

Four months later, the entire town of Hai'an was filled with the joy of a good harvest.

"God, I didn't expect that one day I would be able to grow thousands of catties of sweet potatoes and eggs on one acre of land, the key is that the taste is so good!"

"I didn't expect that the sweet potatoes grown in my family's one acre of land would have nearly 5,000 catties!"

Everyone has a bumper harvest, and the people in the government are also very happy, especially Cheng Zongzhen, who has been grinning every day for a while, and the corners of his mouth have hardly come down.

The next step is how to sell all these sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Cheng Zongzhen used all his connections to contact some caravans.

And Zhu Ruru also found Jiang Xing, and asked Meng Huaiyan to contact Yueyunzhou, asking them to help find as many caravans selling crops as possible for them.

Their sweet potatoes and potatoes were big and delicious, and when the merchants tasted them, they knew that they were good things and did not worry about selling them.

Large-scale acquisitions.

Although the purchase price could not be according to the original market price, because the things were good and the government was involved, they naturally did not dare to lower the price.

When this batch of sweet potatoes and potatoes were sold about the same, not only the people who farmed the land, but also the government of Hai'an Town made a lot of money because of the collection of taxes.

With the money in hand, there is no need to wait for half a year, Cheng Zongzhen decided to start construction first.

Of course, Zhu Ruru is also very much in favor of starting construction as soon as possible.

After all, the sooner the city wall was built, the sooner the family could restore their status as good citizens.

Because he had seen the city wall that Zhu Ruru had built in the village before, Cheng Zongzhen also handed over the design of the city wall to Zhu Ruru.

Zhu Ruru did not shirk it.

She had designed the drawings of the city wall before, and this time she only needed to modify the previous design drawings a little.

It doesn't take much effort.

In less than ten days, she submitted the new drawings to Cheng Zongzhen.

After reading it, Mr. Cheng was very satisfied.

It didn't take long for the organization to start construction.

The organizational ability of the government is naturally not comparable to ordinary people, after all, they can mobilize the whole town of criminals to come over to work as coolies.

With the addition of more than 500 pirates, the construction team is very large.

At Zhu Ruru's suggestion, Cheng Zongzhen led people to disperse them into multiple construction teams, and worked on them from several places at the same time.

In this way, the construction period can be shortened as much as possible.

Nine months later, the walls were completed.

The people of Hai'an Town almost cheered.

"That's great, we don't have to be afraid of barbarians in the future."

"Yes, this wall looks so strong, a barbarian of 10,000 or 20,000 will definitely not be able to break it."

Of course, some people joked, "What if there are 35,000 yuan?" I don't know if I can resist it? ”

Someone immediately scolded him: "Bah, bah! Why are you so crow-mouthed? Thinking about this kind of bad thing. ”

However, they didn't expect that they would really be hit by this joker, Crow's Mouth.

That night, the barbarians came to kill.

Moreover, there were more than 30,000 people who came!

The gang of barbarians who came last time suffered a big loss in Hai'an Town, and their leader originally wanted to bring people back immediately.

But for some reason, they didn't come back immediately, and it has been delayed until now.

Those barbarians in the Beiyuan Kingdom were developed by a family surnamed Duan.

They are almost self-reliant on the border.

There are a total of five brothers in this family, because they are tall and mighty, and they all have the word "tiger" in their names, and they are also known as the "five tigers of the Duan family".

The leader of the barbarians who came last time was Duan Wuhu among them.

Duan Wuhu has four elder brothers, and the four leaders have always disagreed on the attack on Hai'an Town.

It wasn't until half a month ago that an agreement was reached, led by their second leader, Duan Erhu, with more than 30,000 people, planning to attack Hai'an Town at night.

intends to directly level and occupy Hai'an Town.

The first stop after the barbarians crossed the mountain was the village at the bottom of the mountain.

That is, Zhu Ruru is their village.

They had planned to take a little time to take over the small village, however, when they had just arrived near the village.

When I saw the high wall, I was dumbfounded!
