Chapter 778 Preparation (3) ([-])
Shen Ji asked the sheds outside the village to be demolished, and let the refugees live in the sheds of the imperial court, saying that since the imperial court made a move, they would hand them over to the imperial court, and they could not afford it, so they sent people to mix in there.

For a while, some people panicked, because more and more refugees flocked to the capital from all over the country.There were even gangs of people who robbed their homes.Shen sent people to close the door and no longer give out porridge.Mr. Ouyang went to the capital to assist Wei Ying, and Shen Ji agreed to hand over Zhuangzi's security work to Guanshi Hu.This person has been in Wei's family for more than ten years, and he is also one of the people who came back from Dongchang with Wei Ying. Needless to say, he is loyal and capable, and he organized day and night patrols in the nursing home.The inner house is also strictly guarded, and the old Zhao is still in charge.Mr. Wang's injuries haven't fully healed yet, and he still lives in the same courtyard with Xiao Baozi.This is definitely a new force at critical times.Shen Ji felt that he was not in a hurry to leave, maybe because he didn't want to fall into too deep and be unable to get out in the future.Knowing too much about some things is never a good thing.

Shen Ji asked Manager Hong, "How long will these people have enough food for now?"

Mr. Hong said: "After the refugees entered Beijing two days ago, the price of food started to soar, and the food on the market disappeared, so the old slave stopped buying everywhere. Today, the way of eating is still the same as now, enough for half a year .” There are some grain trucks entering the village during the day, but what is more important is the grain team in the middle of the night.There are now three hundred people living in Zhuangzi, and it would be strange if there is no grain truck to deliver grain.

"Since the price of food has risen, it is also right to eat less. If the supply is like this, it will be exposed. Give everyone a [-]% discount first, and then another [-]% discount after half a month."

"Yes."

"How much has the house been repaired?"

"Slightly squeezed, 200 people can move in, and now we are packing furniture."

"Let all the house repairers stop working, and half of them go to strengthen the fence, repair the standing place for defense, etc. Half of the people are temporarily assigned to the nursing home, and now is the time to employ people."

"Where are those big girls and little wives who make military uniforms and quilts?"

"The soldiers in military uniforms were sent to the Military Supplies Department to exchange the silver, and then they got the raw materials and went back to continue making. The quality must be checked!"

"Grandma, don't worry, the old slave will personally lock it up."

It is necessary to build the fence, and those houses must be built for people to live in.Naturally, there is a cost to absorb so many young and strong patrol yards.And there is money to be earned as a military uniform and quilt.So so far, these two things are not really a loss of money.

There were a dozen or so people who cared about their families and wanted to settle the money and go back, so Shen Ji let it go.But the vast majority of people still stayed. Since there is work to do, food and housing are included, and wages can be received, it is still very attractive at this moment.At the beginning, there was a [-]% discount on the food supply, which was not obvious, only some careful people discovered it.But everyone also thinks it is reasonable, now that there are more and more refugees pouring into Beijing, naturally there is no need to count on this year's harvest.The price of food will definitely rise sharply, and it is natural for the owner to give less.

Because it is gradually reduced, so the feeling is much better than the sudden reduction.Later, everyone could only eat about [-]% of the grain at the beginning, and began to mix miscellaneous grains, but they could always eat [-]% full.Those big girls and young daughters-in-law began to worry that if Shen Ji didn't undertake the work of being a military uniform, wouldn't they have to be driven out to starve to death.It is useful for those young and middle-aged men to stay, but they have no other use except to do this, and they are wasting food.

Another batch of military uniforms and quilts was sent away, and a batch of raw materials was brought back.Those big girls and young daughters-in-law felt relieved when they saw that they had brought back the raw materials.What I am most afraid of now is that the manager tells me to settle the wages.These wages can't afford food outside at all now.They have inquired about the people who sent the uniforms to Beijing.Nowadays, everyone's work efficiency is much higher, and many people even volunteered that they can eat less in each meal.

Reporting to Shen sent here, she sighed inwardly, "Then give them a [-]% discount." Anyway, if they don't starve to death, it will make them feel more at ease.Therefore, young and strong men can eat [-]% of their fill, and older girls and younger daughter-in-laws can eat [-]% of it.Hot spring Zhuangzi's own harvest is not good this year, so the daily dishes for the big pot are also decreasing.It can't be compared with that in previous years when the weather is good and you can still eat vegetables in the greenhouse in winter.

Shen Ji began to think that the little prince was ill and tricked Master Kaye to come here.After thinking about it, the master is a man of age, so don't rush him out of the way.So people made it clear that the situation was bad and invited him over, and even told him about the upcoming changes in King Ning.

Master Kasyapa brought fifty monks over, and also brought two large carts of nearly two thousand catties of grain and the crops in the fields that were scrambling to harvest.Sengtian does not pay taxes, and Damiaozi is actually very rich.However, the Banshan Temple is very small, and the incense is not very strong, so it can only be self-sufficient.

Shen Ji invited Master Kaye to come, not because he was worried that he had nothing to eat, but because he was afraid that if King Ning really rebelled, the Banshan Temple had no protection, and it might be destroyed by the flames of war.It would be better for her to build high walls and accumulate food here.The rations brought by Master Kaye were a surprise, but the monk he brought had been missed by Shen Ji for a long time.These monks were able to go deep into Dongchang and rescue Wei Ying, their ability is beyond doubt.You must know that Master Kaye also brought many masters with him when he became a monk.After so many decades, the strength of Banshan Temple cannot be underestimated.

The little prince was very happy, and the 50 people lived in his yard.One room can accommodate one or twenty monks playing on the floor.However, in addition to bringing food and manpower, Master Kassapa also brought bad news.

"We must send someone from Xiling to meet the princess. The poor monk was also puzzled before, but later you sent someone to talk about King Ning. I guess it was King Ning who brought it up."

Shen Ji chatted with the master, and knew that the emperor had many things that he couldn't tell others, but he never shy away from telling this uncle who had already left the palace.Therefore, he also knew the news that Princess Xiling had passed away long ago.

"Well, paper can't contain the flames. It was said at the time that even the King of Xiling would never forgive me." Dying in childbirth is the least destructive way of death.But it didn't come to that day.The birthmark on Princess Xiling's body can probably be faked, for example, there should be a red mole where it should be tattooed into a bright red flower.Looking back, I said that the love of the young couple can also fool the past.But that's the time to focus on corpses.If someone from Xiling wants to check carefully whether it is a real princess or a fake princess, it is not easy to be fooled.

"It's wrong to say this matter, and it's wrong not to say it. It's even more wrong to say it if you can't hide it now. Lao Liu is not a thing. He sold the imperial court to Dongchang in the front, and now he is taking advantage of natural disasters and man-made disasters. The emperor is making trouble. I didn't see that he was such a bad seed at the beginning. Otherwise, without others, the poor monk sent someone to kill him."

"The nine sons of the dragon are different. Master, don't be angry, now you can only use soldiers to cover up the water and the earth."

Master Jiaye sighed, "Natural disasters and man-made disasters, internal and external turmoil. It is said that what the former emperor left behind should be a beautiful country, but now it looks like..." He finally swallowed the word "mess".
