464 Trivia Outside the City

Chen Jialuo was considered a rare talent in the old Chen's family. With a glance, he knew that most of those people were dead soldiers or assassins with strong martial arts skills.As soon as these people came out of the city gate, they mixed into the civilian crowd outside the city.Although the Chen family has deployed a lot of guards here to maintain law and order, but it is obviously not enough to deal with these dead men. The rate of inefficiency is measured in terms of quality or quantity.

"This is troublesome." Chen Jialuo frowned, he was a little angry, he really didn't understand why the old grandfather was so bold, and slipped out of the city by himself, especially when he was not accompanied by the old ancestor Qianxin.

Chen Xiansong smiled. He looked at the civilians waiting in line for the porridge in front of him, and said slowly: "Don't worry, I'm really not in any danger, but you, maybe you will be hurt by Chiyu. I want to believe that this day Down there, except for Sister Qianxin and Xiao Min, no one can hurt me."

There is a reason for Chen Xiansong to be so confident. As long as he stays within the range of Xiaoling Mountain's spiritual veins, he won't be hurt in a real sense.But Chen Jialuo didn't know this. Instead, he bent slightly and said, "Grandfather, I know that you have extraordinary powers. You are not invincible to ordinary people, but you are worthless. You are the backbone of our old Chen family." , a family can be meatless, but not boneless, I will stop serving porridge right now and send someone to escort you back..." "No need!"

Chen Xiansong knew that Chen Jialuo was doing it for his own good, but when compared with Bai Min and Bai Qianxin, Chen Jialuo's way of doing things fell behind.If Bai Min and Bai Qianxin were here at this time, they would definitely persuade Chen Xiansong not to take risks, but once Chen Xiansong decided to stay, the two of them would not say a word, and then they would start to take the initiative Eliminate danger in a tough way.Of course, this has a lot to do with strength.Bai Min and Bai Qianxin can completely beat up a city, but Chen Jialuo can't.

But one's own strength is only a criterion for judging, and Chen Jialuo can bring several people back to the city.Pull the family guards out, and then come to protect Chen Xiansong with a tough posture.Doing this can not only make a gesture, but also greatly boost the morale of the family members, but he didn't... It's not his fault, but he doesn't have this idea at all, after all, post-human thinking is very limited Powerful, they are more often acting based on experience, rather than the result of thinking.

Chen Xiansong actually considered this point.But he doesn't like publicity very much, so he gave up.Anyway, whether there is such a thing or not, he feels that it is a sure thing to win Heluo City now.What's more, the old Chen's family donated porridge here to do good deeds, and no one came to stop it, not even the royal family. It seems that there is not much research on dragon slaying in this world.In fact, Chen Xiansong did not do much research, but he read a lot of books.Especially the history books left by a certain country for thousands of years, which contain all kinds of conspiracies and tricks, all kinds of thick and dark.Looking at this era, it is completely unbelievable.

Chen Xiansong didn't care about Chen Jialuo's anxiety anymore. They are now on a small slope, and at a glance, they can see the Chen family's porridge sheds lined up on the official road outside the city. The official road presents a kind of earthy yellow, and when the wind blows, it will be filled with sand and dust.

Porridge in this setting.There will be some sand in the porridge, but no one will dislike it.Drink an extra bowl of porridge at this time, maybe you can get through the upcoming crisis.A real food shortage.

And far away from the official road, there are still a large number of people working, some are digging stones, and some are cutting trees at the foot of the mountain.These things, these people, are doing some work-for-relief things.After all, if you accept porridge, you can barely eat half full. The elderly, women and children can survive on the rice porridge, but if the elders only eat a bowl of porridge, they will be so hungry that they will be dizzy.

Therefore, as long as there is a bit of strength in the men, they all choose the road of using work for relief. Besides, Chen Jialuo quietly released public opinion among the crowd according to Chen Xiansong's intention. If you want to grab the rations of the elderly, women and children, that is a coward without eggs.

Chen Jialuo carried out Chen Xiansong's order very well. He understood the meaning of cutting down trees. After all, all kinds of wood were used for charcoal burning, furniture, building, boat building, etc. Two bowls of rice, just In exchange for four or five pieces of good wood, this business is simply huge profits.

But he didn't understand why the old grandfather wanted people to dig the stones.It would be understandable to dig some strange stones like birthstones, but the stones here outside Heluo City are useless, they are gray and unremarkable at all.

"Jia Luo, how many of these stones have you dug up so far?" Chen Xiansong pointed to the boulders by the roadside.

Hearing Chen Xiansong's words, Chen Jialuo sighed, and had to put aside his anxious thoughts just now, he said: "Back to the old grandfather, it has reached more than 2 catties. Old grandfather, there is one thing I don't understand. What is the use of digging so many rocks? Half of the manpower is already used to dig rocks. Why don’t we use all of these people to cut down trees, at least we can make more money.”

Chen Xiansong said with a smile: "These stones are of great use to us. I will give you a recipe to make a good thing called cement in the future."

Chen Jialuo's eyes lit up: "What is cement?"

"A kind of building material, the house made is very tough. If it is used to build a city wall... as long as the thickness reaches ten meters, it will not be hit even by a car. The most important thing is that it is easy to transport and easy to build. The cost is very low, but it can be sold at a very high price."

Hearing this, Chen Jialuo took a breath in surprise.He really didn't expect that the tasks Chen Xiansong did were all meaningful.When he heard that Chen Xiansong wanted to use work for relief, he thought it would not be successful. After all, two or three bowls of rice would be sent to someone to cut down a few big trees. Who would do such a thankless task? .

But the facts made him unbelievable. When those able-bodied men heard that the old Chen's family provided work relief, as long as they went to cut down trees, they would be fed. A large group of people immediately came and started working without saying a word. The Chen family doesn't want them.In the usual way, even if one silver coin is paid, it may not be possible to ask someone to dig up two good tree embryos.

As for digging stones, at first Chen Jialuo thought it was just a way to waste his energy, but he didn't expect that the old grandfather had a way to turn waste into treasure.

The scholar really deserves to be a scholar, he really deserves to be the man that Qian Xin's patriarch favored, just donating porridge and using work in lieu of relief, I don't know how many ways have been arranged in it.No wonder the old man always said don't fight against the scholars, otherwise he wouldn't even know what was going on if he died. Now he finally understands the horror of this sentence.
