Chapter 600 Call that girl here

Today is the eighth day of April. According to the original plan, cotton should have been planted.

But the sudden high temperature caught everyone off guard, and they didn't know whether to plant the seeds for a while.

The cotton seeds this time were all provided by Shen Qingqian. They were collected by her using accelerated fertilizer to grow cotton from last year to now. They can be said to be very precious.

Although the Hubei Army's share was sold at the market price, Shen Qingqian himself did not suffer any big losses, but if these seeds did not achieve the expected returns, the losses for the whole of Northern Hubei would be huge.

Shen Qingqian's worries were also the worries of others. Shengze called Shan Mancheng back and rarely showed his face.

"If it's really a drought, what are your plans to go back?"

Shan Mancheng said calmly: "Go further north. Depending on the situation, if the situation is not good, we may move to the foot of Tianxue Mountain first."

"Tianxue Mountain?" Shengze's expression changed, "It is said that there are huge snow wolves living there all year round. You guys went there..."

Tianxue Mountain is a mountain range stretching for thousands of miles deep in the grassland. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, forming a trickle flowing down the river, nourishing the entire mountain range.

The stream flows down from the mountain and forms several natural lakes of different sizes near the foot of the mountain. Whenever there is a drought, tribes who cannot survive will migrate here.

However, there is a ferocious snow wolf living in the Tianxue Mountain. The foot of the mountain has always been regarded by them as their territory. You can imagine how difficult it is for humans to survive here.

"Ha," Shan Mancheng chuckled, "Isn't this how our ancestors came here for generations?"

There was self-deprecation, helplessness, and indescribable sadness in his tone.

Shengze was silent.

Everyone knows that the ethnic groups outside the Pass are brave and good at fighting. They are good at breeding, live by water, and migrate on the grasslands all year round.

A nation born in such an environment would not be able to survive otherwise.

After a long time, Shengze said: "Be careful along the way and say hello to my aunt for me."

He walked back to his room. When he passed by Shan Mancheng, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Cousin, take care."

After saying that, Shengze quickly returned to the room.

Shan Mancheng was in a daze. Just now, he finally felt accepted by Shengze.

…

The next day, Shan Mancheng left early without letting anyone see him off.

Shen Qingqian didn't have to go to the army today, so she planned to go to the small valley to have a look. She heard that the stream in the valley was almost drying up.

As soon as Shengze arrived at Liang Cheng's house, he heard Zheng Shicheng say in a solemn tone: "The water level of Lanjiang dropped two months earlier than in previous summers. The situation is not optimistic. We must make plans early."

Liang Cheng frowned. He really didn't understand. How could the weather change so easily? Wasn't everything going smoothly before?

"Have you asked anyone? What do those who are good at observing the weather say?" Liang Cheng was still a little unwilling.

Zheng Shicheng nodded, "I asked, and they all said that according to the current situation, most of the rivers in northern Hubei will stop flowing in half a month at most, and it will be impossible to successfully topdress and water the crops in the fields."

Liang Cheng saw Sheng Ze coming and asked him to come over quickly, "Cheng San, I don't understand these things in the fields. Do you have any suggestions?"

In order not to expose Shengze's identity, Liang Cheng usually called him Chengsan.

Shengze pondered, in fact, in that dream, he had seen how people in Shen Qingqian's world dealt with drought, but Dajin did not have those things, and all they could do was the most primitive method.

"Send people to repair the canals. There are usually heavy rains after a severe drought. The canals can divert the water and irrigate the fields..." He said that it was the safest and what could be done now.

Liang Cheng pinched his eyebrows and then waved his hand, "Your method can't solve the problem at hand. Forget it, let's call that girl over. She has a lot of clever ideas..."
