Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 100 100 Take you to a place

According to the previous estimate, it was almost time to run out of food in October. Of course, Mu Yu would not just sit back and watch this happen, she already had a plan to deal with it.

The food shortage in October is calculated according to the fact that the villagers frantically plowed the land and took away most of the food. The villagers would not eat this part of the food immediately, and a considerable part of the food was hoarded.

Although in her opinion, this is not good, but in the eyes of the hungry and frightened villagers, this is a sense of security, which is very necessary, and it is absolutely impossible to give up.

However, after the seedlings gradually grew and the villagers had new hope, the situation has been greatly improved.

The villagers believe that there will be a bumper harvest soon, and there will be a lot of food to eat by then.

When the seedlings in the basic field were tall enough and the most tender, Mu Yu asked people to cut some and cook them for the villagers to eat.

Some villagers are very distressed, how can they ruin the crops like this?

She took advantage of the situation to express her current predicament, and kept distributing food. Now there is not much food in the granary, so she can only persist until the crops mature.

As a result, many villagers expressed that they would not receive more food in the future, and some villagers even handed over the food they had hoarded to Mu Yu.

Mu Yu was very moved, and took advantage of the opportunity to introduce a new method. The new reward grains were recorded in the account, and they were settled together after the crops were harvested.

In this way, relying on the remaining grain and cooking with the seedlings, it will not be a problem to last for another month or so.

Of course, it must be able to last until the crops mature.

After Mu Yu took some time to deal with this matter, he was free. Fortunately, people in the village are quite free these days, so it's not a big deal.

Every day she was walking around the fields or in the village, looking for things that needed to be dealt with.

She had nowhere to go that day, so she stayed in the backyard of the stone house and stared at the millets planted earlier in a daze.

Yang Erlang, who hadn't seen him for a long time, came to the door again, and his words were astonishing,
"I'll take you somewhere."

……

The two haven't been together for a long time, and it feels a little strange to get along.

But after walking for a while together, the sense of familiarity gradually returned.

"You said there is a manor of a rich family on the mountainside, why didn't we see it when we went up the mountain?"

Mu Yu followed Yang Erlang through a narrow cave and left Taoyuan Village, and walked down the mountain along an almost indistinguishable path.

"The manor and the village are not in the same place. Normally, when you go up the mountain, you can see the mountain road on the other side of the manor, but at that time we came straight to the village, so we avoided the manor."

"That is to say, if someone rushes to the manor, they won't be able to find the village?"

"I can't find it. The people in the village and the manor have been trading for more than ten years. The people in the manor don't know the exact location of the village, they only know that it's on the mountain."

Mu Yu nodded, which relieved her.

"Now that we have settled down, we will have no restraint after harvesting the grain in another month. It's time to think about other issues."

"Other questions?"

The other problems that Mu Yu can think of have nothing to do with the manor. Even if the food problem is solved, there are still many other internal problems, so I can't take care of the outside world for the time being.

"We have survived here for hundreds of years, and we often have to come down to make deals with the people in the manor, exchanging prey, mountain treasures, and herbs for some supplies such as salt, sugar, and cloth.

If nothing else, we don't have enough salt.

The salt you bought at the grocery store has already been eaten up. The output and quality of Yayan salt is not good.

Let's try our luck at the manor first. "

Cliff salt is the salt that people in the mountains can obtain.

Mu Yu suddenly understood why Yang Erlang asked her if there was any food in the space just now. After she took it out, he just nodded and asked her to take it back. It turned out that he wanted to trade the food.

But there was one more problem, she frowned.

"But what if the manor is the same as those villages, and no one survives?"

"I have been to the manor twice with the adults before, so I know a little about the manor.

The manor is about the same size as our village, with at least two wells, and there are quite a few people. They are more mature and more disciplined, but they don't cultivate more land than we do.

The old man said that they don't have to work hard to survive, and most people don't have to work hard to cultivate the land, they only need to do some other work, and people outside will send them food to eat.

It is said that their lords and wives used to come here to enjoy the scenery and hunt.

If they had received food from outside, nothing would happen. If they did not continue to receive food from outside, it would probably be the same as other villages. "

Yang Erlang was silent for a while, then continued,

"If there are people in the manor, we will find a way to exchange the supplies we lack with them.

If there is no one in the manor, they can't move all the big manors away, and we can pick up the leaks.

Besides, they can't move the well, can they?
It is also a good harvest to have two more water sources. "

Mu Yu felt that what Yang Erlang said was very reasonable, so he didn't say anything more, and followed him wholeheartedly for a while.

Taoyuan Village is at the bottom of the mountain, and the manor is at the bottom of the mountain, and they are on opposite sides of the mountain. The distance is not small.

If you travel normally, this section of the road will take a whole day.

However, Yang Erlang said that it would be no problem to take the trail with him and walk faster, and it would be no problem to walk back and forth in a day.

When the two set off, it was not very early, and it was almost halfway through the morning. They hurried on the road for a while, and when the sun rose to the highest point at noon, Yang Erlang stopped on a raised rock. Point to the wall courtyard in the distance to show Mu Yu.

"Look, that's the manor."

Mu Yu also stood on the rock and saw the stretch of courtyard walls and several roofs.

This is indeed a big manor, and the distance is already very close.

She regained her spirits and beckoned Yang Erlang to hurry up so that he could find out the situation in the manor earlier.

Soon, the two arrived at a courtyard wall of the manor, and walked along the courtyard wall to find the entrance of the manor.

Yang Erlang's tone was slightly emotional,
"The last time I came here, I was about the same age as you. In the blink of an eye, more than five years have passed..."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Mu Yu who was looking around at the courtyard wall, and showed a clear smile. He was so curious back then, and the elders who brought him were like him now, just watching with a smile.

But five years have passed, and things have changed.

Before Yang Erlang could fully wake up from the memory, he heard Mu Yu beside him exclaiming like he did back then.

It's just that, at that time, his surprise was mixed with surprise, while Mu Yu's surprise was mixed with regret.

He looked in Mu Yu's direction, looked past Mu Yu, and saw the scene that made Mu Yu exclaim.

The door is wide open, decay and desolation everywhere.

It seems that the manor has not escaped either.
