Nongmen Rice Flower Fragrance

Chapter 124 Important Matters ([-])

"This son..." Shopkeeper Sun was about to introduce the young master to Li Xin.

"My surname is Yin, Yin Tianchen." The young man interrupted shopkeeper Sun.In every move, there is a kind of domineering that comes naturally from a high position for a long time.Although he was still very young, his face was always very serious.Looking closely, his face is actually a little immature, but there is absolutely no immature feeling in his impression.

"It's Mr. Yin! Now that you're here, why don't you get straight to the point! I'm not idle here, and you're all busy people." Li Xin said with a smile.After finishing speaking, she drank her tea quietly, waiting for Yin Tianchen's reaction.

"There are many places in the north that have suffered from drought. In some places, it has not rained for more than 200 days. It is already in dire straits. The imperial court wants to provide disaster relief. However, in recent years, there have been many disasters across the country. It is really empty in the middle. There is not much surplus grain in granaries in various places. I heard from the Sun family that Ms. Li collects a lot of sweet potatoes here. I have also tasted sweet potatoes. The taste is not bad, mainly because it can satisfy the hunger. So , so I came to find Miss Li."

"I have understood what Mr. Yin means. You want to use those sweet potatoes for disaster relief, right? So what does the court mean? Is Mr. Yin the one who has the final say on everything?" Li Xin thought for a while and asked road.It turned out that it was a drought. Natural disasters are often so unpredictable, and the area affected by the disaster is often very large.Once a disaster occurs, many people will suffer.

In the past life she was familiar with, it was even better. The transportation was very developed, and the big one knew where the disaster was, and could quickly rescue it.All kinds of materials can also be quickly transported by plane and then airdropped.Moreover, the country is relatively rich, and there are relatively large reserves of food and the like.The country's leaders also pay more attention to post-disaster rescue work. Once a disaster occurs, the rescue is very timely and can save many people.

However, in this era, it should not be as good as in the previous life!Don't talk about traffic, I don't know if the court or local officials are paying attention.It's okay if the court cares, but if the court doesn't care, the people will be really miserable.

Drought is actually quite terrible. There is no rain for a long time, and crops cannot grow.Not only will crops fail to grow, but drinking water will also be a problem.It's not that she hasn't heard of droughts. In some places, water can only be found by drilling hundreds of feet deep.In some places, it is even necessary to walk dozens of miles to fetch water to drink.

"Yes. This time, I can make the decision for the imperial court's disaster relief. The court's intention is to let Miss Li take the sweet potatoes dug out for disaster relief. However, the imperial court does not have much money to pay Miss Li for the time being. I owe some days first. However, the imperial court will give some rewards to Miss Li's family for the reclaimed land."

"Since it's about saving people, then I'll agree. If you owe money for now, just owe it! It's nothing to talk about later. I don't expect any reward from the court. Since the shopkeeper Sun brought Mr. Yin here. Then, I also trust Mr. Yin. The sweet potatoes have been sorted out, and they are all placed in the cellar and warehouse. I think Mr. Yin will arrange the delivery, so I won't interfere."

"Ms. Li understands righteousness. Since Ms. Li trusts me, please rest assured, Ms. Li. The money that should be given will definitely be given to Ms. Li. I just ask Ms. Li to wait for a while. There is a lot to be raised now. Almost all the food and money have been spent." Yin Tianchen spoke with a rare bit of embarrassment.

"I'll take Mr. Yin to the warehouse to have a look first!" Li Xin said, standing up.It turned out that such a thing turned out to be, and it was not a very important thing!Shopkeeper Sun was so cautious earlier, it really startled her, what kind of thing did she think it was!However, if you think about it carefully, it seems understandable.

This Mr. Yin is so young, he can actually preside over the disaster relief affairs of the imperial court. It is not easy to think about his identity.Shopkeeper Sun is so careful, he probably thinks that this Mr. Yin is the identity!
Li Xin went up to open the door, and took a few people to the warehouse.Because the cellar in Zhuangzi is relatively small, most of the sweet potatoes are still stored in the warehouse.Fresh vegetables in the south can be supplied almost all year round, and most people don't use cellars very much.Even if there is a cellar, it is generally not large in scale, after all, there are not so many things to store.

In the north, there is a long winter, so almost every household has a cellar, and the scale is not small.Because, to survive the long winter, many people have to store a lot of food in the cellar.

As far as Zhuangzi is concerned, the scale of the warehouse is quite large.Because, when he was thinking of planting sweet potatoes on a large scale, Li Xin asked Wang Fu and his wife to expand the size of the warehouse.Now, the warehouse on Zhuangzi is very large, with a row of houses in a row.However, there were a lot of sweet potatoes dug out this time, and Pinxiang Pavilion didn't buy too many, so all the sweet potatoes almost filled the entire warehouse.

Soon, we arrived at the warehouse.Li Xin took out the key of the warehouse, went forward and opened the door of the warehouse.There are piles of sweet potatoes inside. The seeds of the sweet potatoes are very good, so the size of the sweet potatoes is also very large. The piles of sweet potatoes are piled together like a hill, which is very comfortable to look at.

In this era, food is still the lifeblood of a family!Many big families store a lot of food.After all, with food, no matter when and what the situation is, it is always easier to survive.

"There are really a lot of sweet potatoes!" Yin Tianchen squatted down, took two sweet potatoes and looked at them carefully.Why didn't he think that food was so touching before!Perhaps, only when we know the severity of the drought and how many people are suffering from hunger, can we know the importance of food!

After seeing the miserable conditions of those people, he realized that so many people in the capital live a luxurious life, and the comparison really makes people feel a little sad.Thinking of the life I lived before, I also feel that I am a very annoying person.In the past, whenever the food was slightly unappetizing, he would not eat it.In the past so many years, a lot of food was really wasted, and a lot of money was really wasted on food.
