Crossing the wasteland: Farming and peasant girls can't be provoked

The weapons on the battlefield disappeared, which had never happened before.

A soldier hurriedly came to report to his superior, "General, all the weapons on the battlefield are gone, not a single weapon is left, and none of the horses that ran away have been found? They are all gone."

The general, who was sitting and resting, stood up immediately, "What, all the weapons and horses on the battlefield are gone? How is this possible? How long has it been so long? How could it be possible that none of them were taken away? Have you found any suspicious people around? It must be necessary to take away so many scattered weapons in such a short period of time."

The soldier replied: "General, there are no people around at all, and no suspicious traces have been found. The people who took away the weapons were very careful."

The general frowned, and his heart tightened, "Let's hurry back to the camp. Some people stayed behind to bury the corpses to clean up the battlefield."

Before they got back to the camp, they received news that food, grass and weapons had been stolen from the camp.In broad daylight, there were still people patrolling in the barracks, and the grain, grass and armory were guarded, so the food, grass and weapons disappeared like this.It's just unbelievable.

Jing Yi didn't care how much suspense she left behind, she rushed back from another way after collecting the weapons.

She was not idle on the way home, as long as it was a garrison point, she would not let it go, if her lucky bag was not full in the end and there was no room to put anything down, she would not be happy to leave.

In the end, Jing Yi emptied the food, weapons and horses from the five barracks before galloping all the way back to Yuanling County.

Jing Yi went out like this for almost a month, but it worried the family members badly.

Not only are soldiers issued new uniforms every season, they can eat enough to fill their stomachs, and now they still have meat to eat. This is really bliss.

Lu Tingjie sent someone to find a good blacksmith.The victims resettled in Yuanling County and Changning County came from all over the world, and it was not difficult to find blacksmiths among these victims.

Liu Shi also said: "Yes, don't forget that you are a mother. It takes a month to throw the child out of the house. I really worry about death."

Not only that, Jing Yi also took out some money to be transported to the barracks.

Jing Yi found a time to go into the mountains and asked someone to build some houses in a valley, planning to build the weapon factory here temporarily.After the house and other facilities were ready, Jing Yi put all the weapons in the lucky bag into the newly built warehouse before anyone came.

Jing Yi nodded and said: "I have a solution for this. Your task is to find some experienced blacksmiths. We have to build our own weapons factory. Our army will expand in the future, so we must ensure the supply of weapons."

The soldiers in the barracks were very happy to see the cartloads of food brought back, which proved that they would not be short of food.

Lu Tingjie nodded, "Then I will send someone to find a blacksmith as soon as possible. The place where the weapons are made will be placed in the mountains, where it is secret and safe."

Now she finally had room to spare in her full lucky bag.

Jing Yi and the farmers buy poultry and livestock mainly to supply to the army.During her military training, the soldiers exercised a lot. Besides eating enough, they also needed to ensure nutrition, so some meat should be added appropriately.

Jing Yi searched for several days before finding a suitable cave, took out a lot of food, and asked Yue Changqing to bring the food back to the barracks with the soldiers.

Before that, Jingyi also went to inspect the homes of some farmers, and taught them some breeding experience, of course, it was all the information she summed up and heard in her previous life.

It was difficult for Jing Yi to talk to his mother about the next thing, so he called Lu Tingjie to the study, "Ajie, I got a batch of weapons this time, but some of these weapons have to be remade. The weapons made are not very strong, I want to improve the craftsmanship to make the weapons more sophisticated."

Lin Zhuocheng was also very surprised to learn that his niece was going to pay the soldiers.You must know that the court of Yiguo never gave military salaries to ordinary soldiers.

Because Jingyi advertises well and the price is fair, most households now have more or less livestock and poultry.

In the next few days, Lu Tingjie would go to the courtyard almost every day to ask if Jing Yi was back.

Jing Yi knew that what she did this time was too much and quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I was really negligent this time. The Tianqi Army has more and more people now, but the weapons and horses are extremely short. I'm going to find a way to get weapons and horses .”

Jing Yi nodded, "I think so too."

Lu Tingjie said, "Do you have a solution?"

At the beginning, some wild animals can be hunted, but there are too many people in the barracks, and hunting is not a long-term solution.That's why Jing Yi came up with the idea of ​​letting each household raise livestock and then buy them.

Jing Yi had discussed with Lu Tingjie a long time ago that every household in the countryside should raise pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, whatever it is, and choose voluntarily.When the poultry and livestock are raised, the government is responsible for the purchase.The government will sign an agreement with each farmer, and will also give a certain amount of deposit.

Now some farmers' pigs and sheep are starting to be slaughtered one after another.Jing Yi has set up a special department for purchasing livestock and poultry. Farmers who want to sell livestock can come to the purchasing department to sell directly.In this way, farmers also have an extra income.

The barracks also began to increase the supply of meat as farmers sold what they raised at home.This made the soldiers in the barracks very happy.

Ordinary farmers are reluctant to sell their cattle because they are used for farming.The male chickens, ducks and geese will be sold appropriately, and the females should keep their eggs.So the livestock that are generally sold are pigs and sheep.

Lin Zhuocheng was afraid that his niece would not be able to afford it after forming a habit, and said: "Yiyi, you paid the military salary this time, what about in the future? If it becomes a habit, it will not be easy to cancel it. The imperial court has never paid soldiers the military salary before." .”

Lu Tingjie happened to be in the small courtyard on the day when Jing Yi came back. He was relieved to see Jing Yi came back safe and sound, and seeing Jing Yi's dusty appearance, he said: "You have been out for a month, and everyone is very worried. You. An An is clamoring to find you every day."

There was so much food in her lucky bag, she had to find a way to get it out.

Jing Yi said: "Second uncle, the soldiers train hard every day, and in the future they will go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. I can't let them sweat and bleed in vain. I hope my soldiers will get what they deserve.

Not only do I have to pay the army, but in the future there will be rewards for all who win the competition.In the future, there will be more rewards for meritorious service on the battlefield.This is also a way to motivate soldiers. "

Lin Zhuocheng said: "But there are so many people, now it is 10,000+, and there will be more in the future. This is not a small sum."

Jing Yi said: "Uncle, don't worry, I have so many shops and every one of them is making a lot of money every day, so it's no problem to support these troops. It will be no problem if we expand the territory in the future."

Seeing that his niece had planned it long ago, Lin Zhuocheng didn't stop him from going to the military camp with his niece.
