Crossing straight to the blue sky

Chapter 428
In addition to chiseling the hero monument every day, Qingyun takes time to wander around the city wall in the afternoon to check the progress, and when he returns to the county government office, he sees the kitchen where bags of flour are being brought out, and his heart trembles.

There are tens of thousands of mouths to eat, even if she has mountains of gold and silver, she doesn't have enough to eat!

"Brother, why are you here? Is the stele of heroes finished?"

Kid Qingtian has sharp eyes, he is busy with kitchen work, and he can still see Qingyun's people. The little guy put down the dishes and ran over.

The little guy also knows how to care about Qingyun's work.

"No, it's still worse. Qingtian, brother, I want to ask you something, how many bags of grain do you use for steaming steamed buns a day?"

The kid Qingtian reported the number, and Qingyun's heart was chilled when he heard it.

"Brother, why are you asking this? Is there not enough food in the Yamen?"

For everything related to his business, Kid Qingtian seems to have opened up his mind, and he understands everything.

"If there is nothing, I can ask casually. Don't stay in the kitchen all day long, read and practice calligraphy and practice martial arts. Don't let it go." Speaking of the latter, Qingyun kept a straight face.

"I only came here after finishing reading, writing, and practicing martial arts. Brother, don't worry! I have to watch the fire, and I won't tell you."

Kid Qingtian gets a headache when he hears and reads, and he doesn't want to talk to Qingyun anymore.

Qingyun pouted, pretending that she didn't know his little thoughts!Turned and left the kitchen, went to the lobby.

"Chun'an, I just went to the kitchen to see. With so much grain for two meals a day, the city wall can't be finished in a few months. Even if I have a mountain of grain, it won't be enough for them to eat!"

Qingyun grabbed the teapot on the table and drank half of it to quench his thirst.

"How much food do we have?"

"It's all here, you can see for yourself."

Du Chun'an took out the registration book specially for registering grain, handed it to Qing Yun, and said, "Before I came back, I had asked Daliang to take people outside to buy grain. There are a lot of rice and white flour, so you don't need to buy them. Try to buy some coarse grains and bring them back. It’s okay to eat it with white flour, it’s what I eat these days.”

Aunt Li is a good cooker, I don’t know how she cooks it, half white flour and half whole grains, all the steamed buns taste like white flour.

Qingyun glanced at the food on the account book, put it down with a smile, nodded his head in the air, and said with satisfaction: "Chun'an, I am really my good general, abducting you is the most wise thing I have done ,Ha ha!"

The food problem was solved, and there was no worries, Qingyun patted him on the shoulder, left the lobby, and continued to chisel her hero monument.

………………

Except for the refugees, the county government accepted all the villages that rushed over after hearing the news, and joined the army to build the city wall.

Not long after, many villagers in Qishan heard the news that the county government ate white flour steamed buns and paid wages, which attracted more people's hearts.

There was no more work in the field, some weeding work, even the elderly and children could do it, the young and strong men told their families, and they all flocked to the county government office.

The army that built the city wall grew stronger.

Qingyun finished engraving the name, only less than one-tenth of the hero monument, only occupied a little bit, the bottom is all empty.

Qingyun hopes that in her lifetime, try not to engrave on the blank space below.

Taking advantage of no one's attention, Qingyun carried the hero monument back to the house and put it in the house. After the county town was built, he carried it out and put it in place.

Qishan County is too remote, and the people are exploited by bandits to the point where there is nothing left to buy. It is too difficult to eat some meat, and it is unrealistic to go outside to buy meat.

Building a city wall is hard work. Digging up mountains and digging rocks, and eating steamed buns every day without meat is not enough. If you don’t eat meat, how can you get strength.

"Chun'an, I took a few people into the mountains and came back in four or five days."

Qingyun wanted to take a few brothers into the mountains to hunt. There were not many hunters in Qishan, and there were many wild game in the forest.

The two of them thought of one thing, it doesn't matter if they don't eat meat for a day or two, but it's okay not to eat meat for a few months.

"Okay, go early and come back early, pay attention to safety, the low-level supervisor of the city wall house, there will be no problems." Du Chun'an didn't think about stopping it, and he couldn't stop it. The county magistrate has Captain Bai and the guards following him, so he has nothing to worry about.

The county yamen was short-handed, so Qingyun didn't take any more, so he took four or five brothers and left.

Qingyun and the others went into the mountains for a few days, and met a herd of wild sheep and wild cattle by a lake in a valley. Qingyun and the others hunted and killed two cows and dozens of wild sheep, and returned with a full harvest.

Not enough manpower, Qingyun called her guards out to carry the prey.

When the county police officers were patrolling the mountainside, they saw them dragging their prey and struggling to get out of the mountain, so they ran over to help.

Bai Yibai Er was carrying a bison, and if he didn't look carefully, he thought the two bulls had broken out.Bai Shaojie dragged a trailer made of twigs and vines on his shoulders, with a few sheep piled on it,
There seems to be a lot of prey, but for tens of thousands of people, there is not enough. One person can eat a mouthful of meat and taste some meat.

The prey was thrown to Aunt Li and the others.

Du Chun'an was supervising the work on the city wall, and when he heard that Qingyun and the others had returned, he told the police next to him some things and went back to the yamen. When he saw the prey on the floor outside the kitchen, he said to Qingyun, "Did you meet a herd of cattle or sheep?"

"I happened to enter a valley. There is a lake in the valley. It is estimated that no one has set foot on it, and there are a lot of prey. This time there are not enough people, so I will go next time when I am ready."

Qingyun said regretfully that she did not expect to encounter so many prey this time. For meat lovers, seeing meat is more exciting than hunting a tiger.

Seeing the meat slipping away from the mouth, the feeling of heartache, whoever hurts knows.

In just a few days, the refugees and the people in the county got to know each other like a family, chatting while working, one told anecdotes about their escape, and the other talked about things in the county.

Qingyun's great achievements in suppressing the bandits were inadvertently spread among the refugees by the common people.

Who didn't have a dream when he was young?Who is not bloody when dreaming?
"It is the county magistrate who stamped us in the lobby? The county magistrate looks so weak, how can he still go to suppress the bandits?"

"Could it be a mistake? Can he lift a chicken?"

Most young people and men don't believe it.

When they settled down, they didn't dare to look up. Those vicious policemen in the lobby were standing there, who would dare to look up!
"I've never heard that people should not be judged by their appearance. Our county magistrate is. Oh, you haven't seen it before. After you see it, you will understand." Although the bragging common people have never seen it, he has heard of it. !I can imagine the prestige of the county magistrate killing the Quartet.

"Hey, look, someone is here! Good guy, there are so many things, I don't know where they came from."

The people who built the city wall saw a convoy escorting things, and all of them stretched their heads to look over.

The officers and soldiers patrolling nearby saw someone coming, and a small group of officers and soldiers ran over.

The people who built the city wall found that the officers and soldiers seemed to know the group of people, and both sides were smiling, and then the officers and soldiers led them into the city.
