"It's a bit late now, don't worry, we'll start working now and we won't delay growing food."

Qian Laishun promised again and again.

Zhang Sheng nodded. Anyway, he would come over from time to time to keep an eye on him. He also knew a little about growing food.

Thinking about it, he glanced at the two bags of rice seeds that Qian Laishun was looking at over his shoulder.

Before coming, Gracilaria gave him two kinds of rice seeds. Obviously the varieties of rice seeds were different, and asked him to mix the two kinds of rice seeds before sending them over.

Qian Laishun was a little anxious when he saw that Zhang Sheng was still not leaving after he finished speaking.

He was in a hurry to get to work.

Fortunately, Zhang Sheng came to his senses after thinking for a while and said goodbye.

"Then I won't waste your time any more."

Seeing this, Qian Laishun breathed a sigh of relief. As soon as Zhang Sheng went out, he immediately called his mother-in-law and his next door neighbor to come and work together.

After completing the breeding work, it is time to go to the fields and plow the land again. In addition, if you want to farm, the forty acres of land must be irrigated.

None of it is easy.

Everything about farming here has been explained.

Here at the Jiang family, let's discuss it. Since we can't go to the city to buy goose, duck, and piglets, why not go to the nearby villages to see if any villagers have them? Buy some and go back first. Domesticated.

Mr. Jiang couldn't stay idle at home, so he took Jiang Songshu, Zhang Wen and Zhang Wu, and the four of them drove a carriage and a mule cart out.

The four people acted in the limelight, Jiang Songshu and Mr. Jiang took Zhang Wen and Zhang Wu respectively.

Gracilaria is also a little worried at home. Lying down is uncomfortable, sitting is not comfortable, and standing is even more uncomfortable.

I was so busy before, but now that I have stopped for a while, I really don’t know what to do.

"Oh, it would be great if I could go into the city. At least I could sell some things!"

Jiang Lei said with a sigh.

The people in the city are probably all depressed right now, but they have hundreds of kilograms of bacon hanging in the house, as well as the sweet potato noodles they made earlier.

If these were sold in the city, they would be very popular.

Jiang Li thought about it and felt that several city gates could not be closed for too long. After all, the people in the city had to live.

Mrs. Zhao was tidying up and replanting some vegetables in the backyard. Together with Zhang Sheng's wife and daughter, the three women tidied up the land all morning and finally reopened the vegetable field.

Jiang Li was reading a book, listening to the people talking in the backyard, and was in a daze. At this time, someone called the door from the yard in front.

Jiang Li immediately stood up from the recliner and ran outside, saying, "Come, come, who is it?"

After leaving the main room door, he looked up and recognized the Song family's carriage.

Still Song Yulin and Song Yuxing.

Seeing these two people, Jiang Li remembered that the boat they borrowed earlier was still on the river in the village.

"Can you leave the city now? How is the city doing now?"

Jiang Li could only use the two of them to understand the situation in the city, so as to evaluate whether her own business could still be run.

Song Yuxing smiled and greeted Jiang Li, and then sighed: "Everything is fine in the city, but I heard that food prices are soaring, and many families can't afford food."

But after all, it is better than these villages outside the city. At least the government will take care of it.

Jiang Lei welcomed the two people in.

When they arrived at the main room, Aunt Zhang and the others were busy working in the backyard, while Jiang Li went to boil water for the two of them to drink.

After the two of them were done, Jiang Li couldn't hold back her eagerness and began to ask, "We went to the city gate, and there were many victims gathered outside. The disaster situation in these villages is much more serious than in the city."

Although we live in this backward dynasty, the city still has a drainage system.

No matter how much water floods, it will not be like the situation in the village, where all the houses were submerged and destroyed.

Song Yuxing and Song Yulin nodded, that was indeed the case.

"It was better when we left the city today. We saw some food sent by the imperial court being transported into the city."

In addition, the exchanges between the surrounding cities and Yunzhou City have begun to become normal. Again, so many people in the city need to eat.

It's just that if people from the surrounding villages want to enter the city, it may be a few days late.

The main reason is that the officials are afraid that the refugees around them will flock to the city, and it will be even more difficult for them to manage when there is robbery and robbery.

Originally there were poor people in the city, but if we let some refugees in, it would be a mess.

Song Yulin knew better than Song Yuxing and said bluntly: "People from the surrounding villages may not have to pay to enter the city, but now they have to pay. It costs five cents for one person to enter the city."

This raised the threshold for entering the city and blocked most of the refugees who wanted to get in.

Jiang Li suddenly realized that since this rule has come out, it means that the city gate will be opened soon, I am afraid it will only be in the next few days.

"There is another thing." Jiang Li hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Didn't Anzhou go to war before the flood? How is it now? Do you have any news?"

The two brothers pursed their lips and looked at each other.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught Jiang Li staring at them and suddenly smiled, "We won the battle. That's what we wanted to tell you when we came here this time."

"People from the imperial court have entered Anzhou City and are searching for the remaining rebels in the city."

Song Yuxing winked at Jiang Li, "Uncle will be back soon."

Song Yulin glanced at him and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come back so quickly. I have to follow the army back to Beijing."

Song Yuxing was even more excited than Jiang Li. He let out a sigh with a look of disappointment on his face.

"Then how long will it take to come back?"

"Did they take the water route or the land route? It could take two to three months at the earliest, and half a year at the slowest time."

Song Yulin said lightly.

Jiang Li didn't feel much when she heard that the rebels had lost, as long as it didn't affect them.

After getting the news he wanted from them, Jiang Li already had plans in mind.

She found Aunt Zhang and asked Aunt Zhang to cook early in the evening and make more meals for two people.

Song Yuxing and Song Yulin stood up to leave, but were held down by Jiang Li.

"Let's eat here tonight, I'll ask Aunt Zhang to make bacon rice."

Jiang Li said with a smile.

Sure enough, when Song Yuxing heard about bacon rice, he couldn't walk immediately.

"Second brother, how about we leave later?"

Ever since he had a meal of Jiang's bacon rice before the disaster, Song Yuxing had been craving for it for a long time.

I can’t rule out that I’m following you today because of this.

Jiang's bacon rice is very fragrant. It is a braised rice made with bacon, mushrooms, and vegetables. Usually it is just a soup.

Naturally, it is not as rich as the dishes at home. Even during the recent disaster, the family can still eat four dishes and one soup, but the taste is not as good as the Jiang family's pot of bacon rice.

Song Yulin couldn't stand his younger brother's pleading, so he shamelessly stayed with him to eat.
