Jiang Sihai and Xiao Ming were the only ones left in the room. Jiang Sihai found a stool at random and sat down. He said with an apologetic smile to Xiao Ming, "My brother was rude just now. My sister made a mistake."
While speaking, Jiang Sihai was a little uneasy. When he saw Yueniang shed tears just now, he became distracted and almost misunderstood Xiao Ming. He hoped that Xiao Ming would not think too much.
hehe! Now I know that there is a misunderstanding, why did I just go there? Even though I thought so, Xiao Ming didn't blame her in her heart. Jiang Sihai had a deep love for Yueniang, and Yueniang married a good man.
"I'm fine. My eldest sister is worried. My brother-in-law should give her more guidance. This will be more beneficial to her condition."
"I know, your sister is just a little nervous." Jiang Sihai nodded, knowing in his heart what Yueniang was thinking? worry about what? In fact, he had already thought about it. Now that his younger brother has become sensible, if he can become famous, he will use his family's efforts to help him go higher and further, and then choose an outstanding nephew to inherit the family business.
"Brother-in-law, is yesterday's news true?" Xiao Ming asked about the news in Jiang Sihai's letter yesterday. She didn't hear a word when she entered the city today.
"It's absolutely true. This was reported by brothers in the northwest. I think it will take a few days for everyone to know the news, and I'm afraid there will be chaos." When this matter was mentioned, Jiang Sihai became heavy. Get up, their escort agency has fast horses that are comparable to the imperial court, and they can deliver the news one step faster. The brothers in the northwest will quickly deliver the news as soon as they get it.
The imperial court cannot cover up such a big matter. In order to stabilize the war on the front line, it is imperative to increase food supplies. I am afraid that the world will be in chaos again.
"Is it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?" Even though he knew that Xiao Ming was absolutely true, Xiao Ming's face became heavy after being affirmed again, and the good food became gone, and both times the food suffered accidents, this She had to doubt.
"It's mud, rocks, and mud. It doesn't look like man-made things." Jiang Sihai shook his head. If the last time the food was burned by fire, there were still signs of man-made traces, but this time it was completely different. After several days of heavy rain, the mountains and roads collapsed. Destruction cannot be caused by man, because humans do not have that much power.
Xiao Ming's eyes darkened. One hundred thousand stones of food were fed with mud. It was impossible for the soldiers to fight on an empty stomach.
The army is the foundation of the country, and food is the life of the people. If life cannot be guaranteed...
Why did Chen Sheng and Wu Guang rebel? It was because they couldn't survive...
War, poverty, hunger, if the people all over the world don’t have enough to eat, and sell their sons and daughters, or exchange their children for food, then when there is no other way, then they will also rebel.
And he is far away at the border...
She has always been a person who likes simplicity and loves world peace.
Thinking like this, Xiao Ming slowly made a decision in her heart.
"Brother-in-law, I want to secure a escort trip to the northwest."
"Sister, just tell me what you want. I can't ask for a bodyguard or not." Jiang Sihai was a little unhappy. Xiao Ming was treating him as an outsider. Sure enough, he was angry because of what happened just now.
"No, this matter is very important. My brother-in-law must help me transport it safely to the northwest." Xiao Ming said with a very solemn tone.
"Sister, what if..." Jiang Sihai was a little unsure. Could it be that Xiao Ming was going to the northwest in person? If she knew about it, what would happen if she didn't know...
For a moment, Jiang Sihai didn't dare to think that this matter was ultimately Shi's fault.
"No, our family has a small surplus now. We have purchased a lot of farms since last year. You also know that our family runs two seed shops, so I asked Yi Feng and Uncle Ming to buy a lot of grain for storage. I think Send these grains to the soldiers in the northwest, hoping to do my small part."
Yueniang personally brought the tea in and placed it gently on the table. Seeing that the two were discussing something, she quietly stood beside Jiang Sihai.
"That's it! This is a good thing. I didn't expect my sister to have such a big heart and be loyal to the country." Jiang Sihai praised. He didn't expect Xiao Ming to act like this and take the initiative to send food.
Although he now has a well-off family, he never wants to have too much contact with the imperial court. At most, he deals with local officials, but in his heart he is even resistant to the imperial court.
If the imperial court had not sent troops to exterminate him, he would have inherited his father's legacy by now, and he would not have had to live on his last days.
"Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country." Xiao Ming did not explain too much. She did not have the world in mind, she just hoped that someone far away would be well.
Your peace is my sunny day.
Jiang Sihai's expression changed. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. He has been obsessed with the past and is not as sensible as a woman. That's all. He should let it go after so many years.
"Okay, my sister has taken this order from my brother. He also has a lot of Zhuangzi under his command. This year, thanks to my sister, I have gained a lot. I have also brought them all to feed those soldiers and ruffians, hoping that they can guard the country." Jiang Sihai said with an air of grandeur. He said that when he thought about how much Xiao Ming's villages could produce, if he wanted to give away, he would give away enough at one time.
He originally bought Xiao Ming's seeds because he wanted to take care of Xiao Ming's business. He never expected that the harvest would be more than 30% more than before. To his surprise, since Xiao Ming wanted to send food to the army, he would put it in the treasury. I'm giving away everything, not even the harvest of the past two years. It can't be less than what Xiao Ming gave to a girl.
"Since my brother is going to deliver food to the army, just bring your little one with you, and you will save money on this trip." Jiang Sihai directly saved Xiao Ming's money with a wave of his hand.
Xiao Ming was overjoyed: "Thank you very much, brother-in-law."
When Jiang Sihai saw stones and stones of grain being carried out of the Xiao family compound, and carts full of food being taken away, Jiang Sihai's vicissitudes of life twitched violently, and he couldn't help but ask Yi Feng to inquire privately.
How much grain did Xiao Ming buy? How big of a cellar did the Xiao family dig to store food?
This food is like a bottomless pit and there is no end to it.
And Yi Feng himself was also in the dark. He had no idea how much grain the family had collected. From last year to now, he was not the only one in the family to collect grain. Uncle Ming, Ming Sheng, and even Sun Haiyu were all sent out by the girl to collect grain. From time to time, the grain produced by the neighboring villages is exchanged for the grain grown by the Xiao family. Everyone knows that the grain grown by the Xiao family is good, and they have tasted the benefits. During the farming season, people who exchange grain can be arranged from the Xiao family. Go to the entrance of the village.
One pound is exchanged for nine taels, and the family that comes and goes has more food. The harvested grain was not only placed in the Xiao family, but also in the vacant Xia family. The specific amount could not be calculated.
If you ask him how much food he has, he really doesn't know.
But looking at the people coming and going, it’s really a lot.
I originally thought that the girl was preparing to open another branch, but I didn't expect that she would be sent to the army.
Did the girl already know that the food would be destroyed again?
Xiao Ming didn't know whether the food in the northwest would be destroyed. She just made a big clearance of her space, so that the food that had been accumulated for a long time finally had a good place to go.
Not only the food, but also the medicine village, whether it was in space or in the medicine fields, Xiao Ming had people clean it up in the past few days, load it together and send it to the northwest, hoping to help the northwest war.
When the news of the destruction of one hundred thousand grains spread throughout the Dayue Dynasty, the convoy led by Jiang Sihai had already prepared and set off halfway. In order to ensure the smooth supply of grain and grass this time, Jiang Sihai mobilized all the escort agencies from all over the world. The escorts escorted the goods in the name of a caravan to ensure that this large batch of grain, grass and precious medicinal materials could reach the northwest front line smoothly.
While the whole court was out of breath arguing over the issue of military rations in the northwest, the grain and grass caravan carrying all the wealth of the Xiao family and the Jiang family stretched forward in an orderly manner towards the northwest.
