After being exiled, relying on hoarding space to pamper the sick and weak first assistant

Chapter 140
In the early morning of the second day, Shen Jin'an got up from the bed lightly, for fear of disturbing the sweet dreams of the two groups.

She turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast, but heard movement in the yard.

He hurried out to check and found that it was the red lady who had returned.

"elder sister!"

She hastily wiped the water from her hands on the apron, and looked at the red lady happily.

"Sister, it's great that you're at home. I've been so busy these days that I didn't even touch the ground, so I didn't come to see you."

The red lady felt a little guilty, and walked over quickly to hold Shen Jin'an in her arms.

"It's okay, how is my sister doing in the restaurant these days?"

Shen Jin'an comforted her with a smile, and asked about the recent situation of the restaurant.

Speaking of this, Hong Niangzi's complexion changed a little, and she finally sighed.

"The flood flooded all the fields in Puzhou, affected the granary, and the price of rice has risen to sky-high prices. Not to mention porridge, even the restaurant's business is difficult to maintain."

With a bitter face, she sat down and poured herself a cup of tea.

Shen Jin'an heard about Hong Niangzi opening a porridge shop, but he didn't expect that the situation is so difficult now, even Hong Niangzi, who has never worried about firewood, rice, oil and salt, is now sighing because of rice.

"Sister Mochou, there is always a way."

Shen Jin'an thought of the system, his heart moved, and he comforted Hong Niangzi.

The red lady felt that Shen Jin'an probably didn't want to make her too sad, so she reluctantly raised a smile in response.

After appeasing the red lady, Shen Jinan went back to the kitchen and summoned the system while making breakfast.

"System, rice is in short supply now, what can you do?"

When the system heard the call, it immediately responded, "Host, you can use the most advanced rice technology. Although it won't be effective immediately, it can guarantee future production."

Hearing this, Shen Jin'an was moved. Rice is the crop that produces the most rice in modern times.

But in ancient times, no one had the seeds and technology yet.

She was afraid that as soon as the rice came into the world, she would be beheaded as a witch before the famine was relieved.

Perhaps sensing Shen Jinan's worry, the system kindly reminded him.

"If the host can't wait that long, you can exchange it for rice and experiment on the land in the space, and then use experience points to ripen it."

Shen Jin'an sighed. Although everyone could not immediately accept rice planting technology, there are good ways to get food now, and they can also try to alleviate the urgent need.

"Okay, let's exchange it."

With her consent, the system's voice became cheerful.

"Congratulations to the host for spending 2000 experience points in exchange for rice technology. The gift is some rice seeds. Now you can plant them to accelerate the ripening, as long as 100 experience points~"

The icy electronic voice was quite embarrassing, and Shen Jin'an's heart was bleeding when he heard the reminder of deducting experience points.

"All right, all right, look at the buckle."

Shen Jin'an gritted her teeth, for the sake of the people, she endured it!

After a while, Shen Jin'an came out of the kitchen with a hot breakfast.

Hong Niangzi sat at the table and watched her put several bowls of hot noodles on the table.

"Sister, don't worry. Let's have breakfast first. For the food, my sister has already figured out a solution. Tomorrow, you can just ask someone to come to my house to move the rice."

She smiled and pushed a bowl of noodles in front of Hong Niangzi.

"Where did my sister get the rice? Could it be that she is tight on her own food and clothing? Now that the two children are growing up, don't be too frugal because of this."

Hong Niangzi stuck her chopsticks into the noodles, she couldn't wait to take a big mouthful, and said to Shen Jin'an again.

"Sister, just take care of the rice, and my sister knows it well."

Without waiting for her to ask any more questions, Shen Jin'an turned around and went to the room to ask Suisui Huanhuan to get up and have breakfast.

The red lady took her leave after breakfast half-believingly and went back to continue to deal with a mess of things.

On the Mingjiang Wharf, dark men were sweating profusely with sandbags on their backs.

Although it is already spring, the temperature is still cold. If you sweat and blow such a cold wind, and walk in the turbid and cold river, the hard-hit people will also fall ill.

Sure enough, most of the people started to have a fever in the afternoon. Commander Qiu couldn't bear the pressure from the crowd, so he had to invite a doctor to see it.

The remaining people who have not fallen ill continue to repair the dam. After the devastation of last night, the dam has shown signs of relaxation.

Gu Yanqing had Shen Jin'an's pills by his side, so naturally he did not fall ill, and he even distributed some to those who were seriously ill.

After dispensing the medicine, Gu Yanqing looked at everything on the pier, seeing all the suffering in the world, his eyes were dark, and he strode towards Commander Qiu.

Xiong Wei at the side hurriedly stopped him.

"Gu Langjun wants to talk to Commander Qiu?"

Gu Yanqing nodded, and was about to leave again.

"But Commander Qiu is extremely cruel, and now one can see that he is in a bad mood. Isn't Gu Lang hitting the muzzle of the gun?"

So yesterday Gu Yanqing saved his life, and his wife Li Chunhua accepted Shen Jinan's kindness again, so he kindly reminded him, not wanting to hurt his benefactor.

"Thank you, Brother Xiong, for reminding me, but I can't stand by and watch."

Gu Yan thanked him lightly, with a firm expression in his eyes, he brushed away Xiong Wei's hand, and resolutely walked towards Commander Qiu.

Commander Qiu saw that the people under him were sick so much, and there was nowhere to vent their anger. Seeing that Gu Yanqing was walking towards him without work, he was even more angry.

"Which family do you belong to? How dare you not work? Do you want to be lazy?"

Commander Qiu waved his whip angrily, and many people sneaked a few glances at them when they heard the movement.

"Qiu Tong takes the lead and don't get angry. It's better to listen to my views on water control. Blocking the dam is useless now, and it may even cause a second flood. If we can divert water downstream, it will be a long-term solution."

Gu Yanqing cupped his hands, looked into Commander Qiu's eyes neither humble nor overbearing and said.

His words were loud, his eyes were firm, and his momentum was extraordinary.

Commander Qiu was stunned for a while before he realized it.

"You, a commoner, dare to tell me what to do? Blocking the dam was the idea of ​​the superiors. What is your status and courage?"

After finishing speaking, the whip in his hand unceremoniously waved towards Gu Yanqing.

Gu Yanqing saw the whip blowing towards him but did not hide, and still maintained the knowledge he had just learned.

Commander Qiu was even angrier seeing him like this, and pulled at him with all his strength.

A line of bloody welts bloomed on Gu Yanqing's body, and the dark red blood smeared on the tattered robe. Many people stopped and looked at him, but he still stood like a green pine.

Li Yamen's servant was frightened out of his wits when he saw this scene, but he didn't dare to go forward to dissuade him.

Everyone remembered Gu Yanqing's kindness, and they all stopped their actions and protested silently to prove their solidarity with Gu Yanqing.

Soon Commander Qiu noticed that everyone was looking at him as if they were going to eat him, his palms trembled, and the whip fell to the ground.

And Gu Yanqing finally couldn't hold it anymore, fell to the ground and passed out, the blood on his body stained the sand on the ground red.
