Space farmer girl: I hoarded food and raised cubs in ancient times

When the time comes, she can still count on her apprentices to help the Shen family prop up the pharmacy and medical clinic.

Yin Song's eyes brightened slightly.

"There are eight people in total. If my aunt sincerely wants it, I will give you one thousand taels." He said.

The Yin Family Pharmacy was closed down, and most of the doctors sitting in court were implicated in the crime. Those who were not guilty also looked for other ways out.

He kept the medicine boy on hand, but it was of no use.

Even if the Shen family didn't pay for it, he still planned to send him over, but it was not easy to train a medicine boy, so there was no reason to give him away for free.

What's more... he is really short of money.

It's okay if the border guards can't afford the war. If we fight together, I'm afraid he will be even poorer.

Shen paused.

Eight medicine boys cost one thousand taels, which is quite expensive.

However, the current situation of the Yin family is special, and the Yin family has such a relationship with the prince, so it doesn't matter if she gives out the money.

"Okay." So Shen agreed.

A smile appeared on Yin Song's face.

After looking at Murong Zhan, who was silent, he said to Mrs. Shen, "Auntie doesn't have to give me these thousand taels of silver. I can just buy the medicinal materials and make them into medicine."

Mrs. Shen then looked at Murong Zhan and nodded with a smile.

"to make."

Shen Shuangshuang and her mother-in-law looked at each other.

He thought: Although the prince did not allow them to help with money, he did not stop Yin Song from selling people to the Shen family at a high price. This shows that the prince actually wanted the Shen family to help.

With a thought in his heart, Shen Shuangshuang said: "Excluding the consumption of medicinal materials in the army, there must be a lot of consumption in food and grass."

"Yong County has a bumper harvest of grain this year and the price of grain is low. When I came back from Mengjiazhuang yesterday, I met several grain merchants collecting grain on the road. Why don't my cousin and Mr. Yin take the opportunity to stock up on a batch of grain?"

Murong Zhan's eyes fluctuated and he looked at Yin Song. Clearly moved.

Can you not be moved?

With 20,000 mouths under his command, how much food do they need to eat every day?

Although he was not the only one raising them, most of the soldiers had to starve to death with only the small amount of military pay from the court.

It's a shame that his father went through the pressure to make him a king, but couldn't give him a land. Otherwise, why wouldn't he be able to support an army of 20,000 men?

Fortunately, the dilemma is temporary.

His father had already told him that as long as he could defend Hanyue City for three years, he would be given a fiefdom after three years.

By then, when he has a fiefdom, he will no longer have to worry about being unable to raise soldiers and horses.

Yin Song's expression was bitter.

Seeing Murong Zhan looking at him, he finally nodded.

"New grain comes out and the price is low. Some grain merchants will sell some old grain at low prices. I will contact some familiar grain merchants and buy some old grain in stock." After Yin Song finished speaking, he glanced at Shen Shuangshuang. His eyes were rather resentful.

Why do you need to talk about this kind of thing?

Of course he would take the opportunity to stock up on food, but the money he had was limited, so even if he stocked up, he wouldn't be able to stock up much.

When Shen Shuangshuang heard this, he became interested.

"Is there cheap old grain?"

"What kind of connections does Mr. Yin have? Can you introduce him to me? I also want to stock up on a batch!"

Seeing Murong Zhan and Yin Song looking at him, Shen Shuangshuang continued: "I want to stock up on more soybeans. I also want rice and wheat."

"What you don't know is that I have made an agreement with the tenant farmers in Mengjiazhuang. They will help me farm the land. From now on, I will give them food every year. In this way, I also need to stock up on some food."

"Also, there are so many workers in my workshop, and many of them eat in the staff canteen now. Plus there are so many people in Shen's mansion. No matter what, I have to stock up on food to feel at ease."

Murong Zhan looked away.

Yin Song nodded.

"Next time Xiao Liu comes over, let him introduce you to some more grain merchants."

"However, if you don't want to buy much, the Zhou family should be able to meet your needs."

"Haha, okay." Shen Shuangshuang responded with a smile.

The Zhou family, the family behind the boss Zhou whom Xiaoliu introduced to her before.

Since she was dealing with Boss Zhou, the soybeans and rice used in her workshop, as well as the noodles she secretly stocked up, were all bought from the Zhou family. It's not impossible to buy old grain from the Zhou family...

In addition, on the Su family's side, third brother Guang Su already had two Zhuangzi, and the Su family must have a lot of food in hand.

The Su family is not in the grain business. They are selling grain when they sell it to grain merchants, and selling it to her is also selling them.

If she goes to Yuyan and Su Sange, they should be willing to sell the grain to her.

Well... after Li Ke and the others left, she had to count the money on her hands, borrow some from her mother-in-law, and stock up a batch of food in the space.

Not only food, cloth, meat, etc., you can also stock up if you have the opportunity.

In ancient times, grain output was low, and farmers basically relied on the weather for food.

If there is a severe drought, flood or severe snow disaster, famine may occur.

She now has a workshop, a village, and more and more people under her command. She must be prepared for danger in times of peace and take precautions in advance.

A few people were playing cards, time passed quickly, and soon it was noon.

Someone came from the kitchen and reported the situation to Chuntao who was waiting not far away.

Then Chuntao came forward and saluted everyone.

"Madam, madam, lunch is ready."

Everyone had just smelled the fragrance coming from the kitchen, and everyone was already hungry.

After hearing this, some people couldn't sit still.

Yin Song urged Li Ke to quickly draw the cards, saying that after playing this one, he would stop playing.

Everyone seemed to have the same idea, indicating that they were all a little hungry.

So Shen Shuangshuang looked at Chuntao with a smile.

"Let the kitchen serve food first. We will move to the front hall later."

"Yes!" Chuntao bowed and left.

After playing cards, several people stood up one after another.

At this time Li Ling also came over, and the little baby, accompanied by the maid, flew towards the crowd.

Then he was pulled by Murong Zhan towards the front hall.

Entering the front hall, many dishes were already placed on the table.

The colors are alluring and tempting.

Before Ms. Shen could say anything, everyone took their seats.

Then start the food.

When the food carefully prepared in the kitchen entered, everyone lost the desire to talk and turned to chopsticks.

It took a while before anyone spoke.

But everyone was obviously not interested in chatting, and they didn't even take a few sips of wine.

Here in the front hall, in the kitchen, Shen Zhai's servants also started in batches.

The servants gathered food and vegetables and went back to where they should be to eat.

Wei San and others were all guarding the yard outside the kitchen.

Ask why?

Because Chef Zhu directly packed the prepared meals in wooden basins and placed them in the yard. There was a large basin for each vegetable, so everyone could add more if they didn't have enough.

This was too much for Wei San and other guards. They found tables and chairs, set them up in the yard, and sat down not far from the food to eat.

A dozen people were like reincarnations of starving ghosts, constantly going back and forth between the dining table and the meals.

Chef Zhu was originally very confident, thinking that the kitchen would cook so much food at noon today that she would definitely be unable to finish it all.

As a result, seeing the momentum of Wei San and others, Chef Zhu became less confident and felt that she might still arrange less food.

Five large bowls of food were enough in the end.

The guards burped one after another until they couldn't swallow anymore, then they put down their bowls with satisfaction.

It feels so good to feel so full after eating good food...
