Chapter 87 Another Grain Depot

After hearing this, a group of people were so happy that they could not wait to go to the place the king said immediately.

Compared with the stop-and-go before, Wu Xiyan walked briskly this time, led the people to open the blocking trees and thorns, and then entered the valley, and found that she was bored with a pile of sweet potatoes by the small pool when she left. Dig up and cook all of them, some of them are still turned into carbon, and then everyone gets half of it.

After everyone ate it, they began digging vigorously according to her instructions. When they heard that the vines were also taken away, they carefully sorted them and put them away.

When it was dark, I lit a torch to light it up, and dug until late at night to wipe out the edible crops in the valley, such as sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, wheat, and corn. Raw tomatoes are inedible. As for the fruit trees, she dug them up.

Anyway, among the hundred or so people who came, everyone filled the two baskets to the brim, and there were still a lot that couldn't fit. In short, they can be emptied after another visit, so they definitely don't feel that there is not enough manpower.

Since it was already night, Wu Xiyan couldn't fit it, so Wu Xiyan took everyone to bake the sweet potatoes that couldn't fit, and asked them to roast and eat them all. They tasted the taste before starting work. I was hungry, but when I saw that these were all for food, I was happy in my heart, so I didn't care about being hungry, and now I could eat again, and they were so happy that they even swallowed the skin with wood ash.

Although everyone was only half full, it was pretty good. After all, tomorrow morning we have to carry things down the mountain and go back to the palace. Only when we are full can we have the strength to carry the burden, so the master's share is more than what we eat now. They were all talking happily.

You have no beasts in the valley, so everyone rests where they are.

Before dawn the next day, Wu organized everyone to bake sweet potatoes to eat again, consuming those parts that couldn't fit.

The smell of the sweet potatoes that passed the test was tangy, and everyone was already drooling.

After eating and resting for a while, it was already dawn, so the group returned to the palace with their burdens.

When entering the city, many people saw them coming back, one by one carrying grass, although some people were surprised, but some people saw that there was food below, so they were all envious. Those ministers who did not go Those who saw it immediately regretted it, but it was too late to regret it, so they could only hope that the monarch would distribute the extra to them so that they could have a taste.

Back at the food distribution square in the palace, before she was called, everyone who could enter the palace had already entered.

Of course, Wu Xiyan didn't miss that when the national teacher saw her picking up something at the gate of the palace, her stiff smile almost couldn't be maintained. She almost didn't laugh at that time, but the system laughed like a pig in her mind. Come.

Then the national teacher's assistant followed all the way to the square with a stiff smile. When she and others didn't see it, her eyes almost stared at the food on the ground. When the system told her, she felt that she could do more. I'm eating some sweet potatoes.

The national teacher is unhappy, but she is happy in her heart.

More than 100 people divided each of them, and there are still a lot left.

When everyone thought she was going to share the rest, they heard that their monarch didn't say no, but asked someone to bring the cauldron that hadn't been used in the palace for five or six years. After washing it, I threw all those things called sweet potatoes and potatoes into it, filling a whole nest.

There are still a lot of them in that pile, and many people watched helplessly as the lord asked someone to send them to her private treasury. Of course, no one would say that, after all, all previous monarchs came here like this, but this monarch did not. Now it's the first time to do this, and those people dare not say a word.

Zhao Cheng also took Xu Jin and the two of them happily to help her move to the storage place. Those ministers who didn't help dig food and didn't score all stared at each other, but they couldn't make the king say to keep the food. Next, another burst of regretful tears flowed from my heart.

After cooking, Wu Xiyan asked Zhao Cheng to ask all the people who didn't go to line up, and then each person had a potato or sweet potato, and each person had to plant. Those who had potatoes didn't get sweet potatoes, and those who had sweet potatoes didn't get potatoes. Once it is gone, it can no longer be divided.

After everyone had shared a round, those people thought they would give them more, but Wu Xiyan waved his hand and asked Zhao Cheng and others to pack up the rest in a basket, go to the gate of the palace, and then ask people to line up. First served, while supplies last.

Wu Xiyan was satisfied to see that her favorability value had risen again, and she was very happy.

As for her being happy, it's a pity that some people are unhappy, and it can even be described as being in a very bad mood.

Isn't that right, the national teacher saw that all the food he had worked so hard to raise in the valley was emptied, and it was quite bearable not to vomit blood on the spot, so after receiving his share, he said he was unwell and went back to rest first. At that time, she deliberately asked a few questions, and the other party almost didn't sulk his face, and for the first time in history, he gave him a bad face on the spot.

They said almost, she really admires the national teacher, she can still smile at her like this, although the smile is far-fetched, but she who knows the truth will definitely not care whether the national teacher's face is far-fetched or stiff, anyway, in the shell. Zhizhong is the national teacher with a good temper, and the other party obviously kept the title of the smiling tiger because of this point.

In general, in the first round of the game between her and the national teacher, the national teacher lost, and she won a big victory!
Well, I can laugh out loud in my dreams tonight.

After distributing the food, Wu Xiyan began to popularize the issue of planting with the ministers in the palace.

First, let those who followed to dig the ground cut and fold the sweet potato vines according to what she said, and then tell everyone about the planting of sweet potatoes. All the palace ministers can get a small handful. The climate of Qixia country is like spring all year round. Even if this year is a drought year, the fruit and barley are not harvested, but sweet potatoes are different. As long as they are planted in places with more water in front of their homes, they can live long. Then expand the planting immediately, so it doesn't need much.

After the people in the palace were divided, some of them were reserved for planting in their own palace, and then the rest were distributed to the people of the imperial city gate. It was also lined up on a first-come, first-served basis, and each person could distribute five pieces. I told them how to grow it, and I didn't worry about it being good for them.

Of course, the handicapped party is not ruled out, so let them distribute the seedlings after two months, and there will always be one that survives.

No matter how bad it is, those who grow it can divide one or two roots, and there will always be one that survives.

As for potatoes, Wu Xiyan reserved potatoes for direct breeding, but because potatoes were needed for breeding, he did not popularize them. Instead, he planned to plant a crop in the palace first, and then cultivate them after they were harvested, and then distributed them little by little. go out.

She is not worried about not being able to produce high-yielding ones. The matter of breeding can be said to be memorized. Without the support of modern technology, she may not be able to breed high-yielding ones, but compared with the existing ones, she can definitely increase some of them.

And right now there is a shortage of food, the palace is a shack area, there are no guards to guard the palace, so the national teacher has the opportunity to go out alone, with people guarding, can the national teacher still move around so freely, unless he can fly, otherwise leaving the palace is inevitable will be found out.

Wu Xiyan felt that the most important thing was to build the palace walls, but if there was no food to maintain, who would help, so food was still an urgent need.

In the next few days, she asked Zhao Cheng and the others to participate in the digging of grain, and went to the palace every day to reclaim the idle places in the palace to plant sweet potatoes, and promised that everyone would be able to share the potatoes for breeding when they harvested, so they worked one by one. very.

In just three days, more than 100 people directly dug up the available land in the palace and planted crops such as small potatoes and sweet potato vines. As for the fruit trees dug back, they were planted in the back garden of her choice.

However, the national teacher has been staying behind closed doors for the past few days, saying that he is in poor health. In the words of the lord, let the national teacher have a good rest and don't disturb him.

Everyone thought that the national teacher was sick and resting in his own yard. Only Wu Xiyan and the system knew that the food that the national teacher worked so hard for was dug up by her, and all the fruits of labor were carried on her head. In fact, the feeling of making wedding dresses for others has already made the national teacher so angry that his liver hurts, not to mention that all the palaces are planting those crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes and vines. He can hear a bunch of people saying good things about her wherever he goes. , Said that after the food crops she found, everyone would not be hungry, etc., and simply didn't go out in a fit of anger.

It's just that after five days of silence, the national teacher made another move.

And Wu Xiyan was also worried about how to catch prey such as rabbits, pheasants and wild boars in the deep mountains. After all, meat is better than eating wild vegetables, sweet stalks, and cherished sweet potatoes every day. Has always been nutritious is not.

It was just an idea, and the national teacher made a move, so she followed the national teacher to leave the palace again.

With the first stalking, Wu Xiyan learned to be smart this time, because since the system gave her the BUFF, she can now be said to be a person with infinite strength, so she specially found a super-large back and brought a machete The hoe and the rope followed the national teacher into the mountain.

After walking for nearly five hours, the national teacher wandered back to a place where he had walked twice before getting in.

When Wu Xiyan saw a certain place, he confirmed it with the system. It was only over an hour away from the imperial city. It seemed that the national teacher suspected that she was following her, so she thought of climbing from the side. Go up the mountain and let the system detect the situation in the valley from a high place.

This valley is larger than the previous valley from the outside, and the system has detected that there are many poisonous snakes and poisonous things around. Most people dare not approach it. The imperial city and surrounding villages call this mountain Poison Wu Mountain.

Poisonous Mist Mountain, as the name suggests, besides all kinds of poisonous insects and poisons around it, there are also poisonous herbs and plants.

Because there are such poisonous ones, no one who knows will come here, but as a national teacher who understands medicine, he is obviously not afraid. He obviously has medicine to drive away poisonous insects and snakes.

Just as she guessed, the system detected that as long as Guo moved, the poison within ten meters around the Guoshi would be scared and flee.

[The system said excitedly: Yanyan, Yanyan, here is another grain depot!There are more sweet potatoes and potatoes below, as well as rice. What this country does not have, wheat sweet potatoes and potatoes are available in surrounding countries, but because it is almost closed to the outside world, people in this Qixia country don't know it, but they are free. No one knows who she has been there and met, so it won't be surprising that you know Daozi, even if the national teacher interrogated him, he would have something to stop him. 】

Wu Xiyan didn't care about what the system said, because she found it strange how a national teacher got these seeds.

[Wu Xiyan: Xiao Jiu, he doesn't have the same system as yours, does he? 】

[The system heard the words and said: Absolutely not, don't worry, but I have detected that the rice in this valley is a very primitive type, and some of them seem to be hybrids, which seem to be in the stage of exploration. If I guess correctly, the rice in this valley There may be wild rice in it, but the Qixia people have never found it.Moreover, there is a large cave under this valley, which contains a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes, plus some pumpkins and winter melons, as well as the crops grown on the ground. After the harvest, the people in the palace are full enough to eat for two months. 】

"Really?"

Wu Xiyan couldn't help raising her voice a few degrees. If so, she could go up the mountain to dig traps, and at the same time have people build palace walls and the like.

And she has not been idle these days, she has already found someone to dig pottery soil in the south of the city, and dug a cave dwelling on a small hillside in the back garden of the palace. Only Zhao Cheng and Xu Jin know about this. Because the two of them dug it with their own hands, Wu Xiyan let them in in the name of taking care of the back garden, so those people thought they were just sent to take care of the fruit trees.

The two knew that she regarded them as confidantes, so they worked very hard. Because they knew that she was trying to burn paper clay bricks, and because they heard that they could be used to build houses, they were both looking forward to it. After all, they had heard of them, but those were just Qixia. Foreign things.

When there was no hostility between the two countries, Qixia Kingdom also exchanged grain for some bricks to build the North and South Cities.Otherwise, if the northern and southern cities were just towers made of wood, they would have been burnt up when the enemy invaded.

Although they know it, they don’t know how to fire it, so they are just envious. So far, only the northern and southern cities have real brick towers. On the contrary, there is no noble imperial city, just houses made of wood. Poor and poor, now the master said that she seemed to have seen burnt bricks when she was traveling, so she wanted to try it herself and ask them for help. In the future, they will benefit from their success, so naturally she agreed.

In Wu Xiyan's eyes, there were two more obedient head guards, so naturally he was happy to hand them over to them.

Of course, those who go too far, if the food in this valley lasts for so long, she can bring a small group of people into the mountain to find food, and then some people will burn bricks, build the palace, and then engage in food production. Find more food storage, and wait until the first crop of sweet potatoes harvested in three months is planted again, then at least they can eat until tomorrow spring.

 Where are you going to play today, dear?
