The general's wife is too naughty, she starts to flirt with him

"well done!"

Luo Wei felt a little uncomfortable at being praised so directly, but a happy expression unconsciously appeared on his face.

"Working for Madam is my duty, and I don't deserve your praise." One should be humble when it's time to be humble. Luo Wei couldn't help but blush as he spoke.

Seeing his brother like this, Luo Li quickly reported his own progress. "Madam, I have sent back all the messages. By the day after tomorrow at the latest, everyone in the nearby buildings will show up. Madam, I will assign them."

"How many?"

"About a hundred people." All the free people nearby were gathered together. If there was enough time, including those who were a little further away, there would be more than a hundred people. Unfortunately, time was running out, so this was all we had for now.

"How's your combat power?"

Si Song Qingci pondered for a moment and decided that more than a hundred people should be enough.

There are still many young and strong people in Lishui County who can come to help when the time comes.

“They are all good players.”

There was a hint of pride in these words.

There are no cowards who can work in Fengxue Tower.

This is what is called a strong general has no weak soldiers.

"Okay, then you will be in charge of the temporary placement of these people. Be sure to take care not to disturb the peace of the people."

"As you command." Luo Li felt that his wife's aura was becoming more and more like his master's. Sometimes, even her aura seemed more majestic.

"What about you, Aunt Wan? How are you doing with what I asked you to do?"

Not seeing Qin Wanjun take the initiative to speak up, Song Qingci had some guesses in his mind.

Qin Wanjun's expression remained calm, but she felt a pang of anguish. She replied respectfully, "I encountered some obstacles. It wasn't going very smoothly."

"Oh? Tell me carefully."

Qin Wanjun took out a stack of banknotes from her lapel and placed them in front of Song Qingci. "This is the money that Madam gave me before. Now there is more than half left."

Song Qingci estimated that there were about seven or eight thousand taels of silver notes on the table.

“Why are there so many left?”

"Madam, I don't know what's going on in this city. The grain stores seem to have agreed to limit purchases per person. I had to run all over the grain stores in the city to buy over 2,000 taels of grain, and more than half of it was aged rice. Less than 30% was fresh rice."

Song Qingci frowned slightly, and then thought that this must be the work of the county magistrate.

Preventing the people from hoarding large amounts of grain will be beneficial to him in the future, whether he uses work-for-relief or hoarding grain to make a profit.

In times of famine, whoever has food has the final say.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you tried your best." Song Qingci originally just wanted to find a reasonable excuse to send Qin Wanjun away.

She doesn't care whether she can buy it or how much she buys.

Now the Jinghu Reservoir is basically unbreakable. Unless an irreversible natural disaster occurs, Lishui should be safe this year.

"Find a place to store the food you buy and donate it when needed."

"Old slave understands."

Qin Wanjun had already found a suitable place near the Salesian Home.

If it is really donated to the Salesian Orphanage, there will be no need to hire anyone to move it.

"You two should rest up for now. Once everyone is here, we'll have a big job."

Because there were not enough people, she had to wait until everyone was there before she could continue, so she had to rest well in the inn for the next two days.
