The couple in the last days traveled to ancient times, farming and storing grain and meat in the war
Chapter 181 A prosperous husband?
Ji Wei had not expected that his apprentice could be so tough. His iron-blooded tactics really amazed him.
He killed enemies on the battlefield, just like that.
But this is indeed the fastest way to stabilize and restore the situation.
Seeing Xiao Yan's drastic measures, the wealthy families in Dengping County naturally cooperated with Xiao Yan to implement the policy of work-for-relief.
What's more, this policy is beneficial to them.
Cheap labor, and the gardens, temples and other buildings that we wanted to build in the past were either not allowed to be built or the land was not granted. Now, the government will approve them all.
It's a rare opportunity. Who knows if there will be such an opportunity again in the future? Naturally, we are building on a large scale.
Xiao Yan also summoned these wealthy families to the government office for talks twice. He had only one request: to implement the policy of giving priority to hiring hungry people and not to allow anyone to starve to death in Dengping County.
Mr. Tao knew that the government was short of money to help those who fled famine, so he donated 100,000 taels.
He also donated 20,000 kilograms of grain.
Xiao Yan was not surprised. As the richest man, Mr. Tao had always been as stable as a rock in Dengping County. No one could pull him down from the position of richest man. There was a reason for that.
Because they can keep up with the changes.
With Mr. Tao taking the lead, other wealthy families naturally followed suit and donated, whether they were willing or not.
Some donated money, some donated food, and some donated both money and food.
Including the donation from Mr. Tao, the government finally received a total of more than one million taels of silver and more than 100,000 kilograms of grain from these wealthy families.
More than 100,000 kilograms of grain, distributed in the form of porridge, was only enough to feed 2,000 people for two months.
What's more, more and more people are fleeing to Dengping County, definitely more than two thousand people.
Furthermore, with so many people fleeing famine, it's impossible for everyone to get a job. There must be many who still need food assistance every day...
Also, it's only September now. Even if the disaster is over, those who fled here won't be able to return to the north until early spring next year at the earliest...
Fortunately, the late rice in the south is about to be harvested, which should be able to help the north overcome this difficult time.
Dengping County is working furiously to provide relief to the disaster victims and resettle the affected areas. Other areas not affected by the disaster are also vigorously implementing the strategy of work-for-relief.
After all, it was an imperial decree issued by Emperor Li, otherwise he would have been beheaded.
However, when other local governments implemented work-for-relief programs, they also took the opportunity to renovate or rebuild government offices, making them even more magnificent and majestic.
Only the Dengping County Government Office remains the same.
On this day, September 12, Jiang Ningning opened a barbecue shop in the next county.
The next day, Jiang Ningning and her friends went to another neighboring county and bought a good shop.
After waiting for another three days, they hired all the people and opened the shop to sell barbecue.
Since then, Jiang Ningning and her family have a total of four barbecue shops.
Finally, it is September 17th, and the white fungus in the workshop can be picked and harvested.
In order to grow so many rooms of white fungus, Jiang Ningning hired many people from the surrounding villages to help.
Especially getting the white powder off gently is really laborious.
With so much white fungus, Jiang Ningning and the others naturally planned to dry it before selling it.
When so many people were hired to help harvest white fungus, someone was thinking about the good fortune of Jiang Ningning and Xiao Yan's families, and suddenly asked, "What do you think, is Miss Ning a lucky charm for her husband?"
Without waiting for others to agree with her, the aunt hurriedly said:
"Look, ever since Ning girl and Yan boy got engaged, Yan boy's family has been getting better and better. It's been smooth sailing. He passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar. Now he's even become a county magistrate!
Also, didn’t Miss Ning have three engagements before? After each of those three engagements, the family conditions improved.
Especially the last two families, they were so poor at the beginning that they couldn't even get married, so they could only come to ask Ning Yatou to marry them.
Then, after the engagement, the man's family had some money, so they disliked Ning Yatou and canceled the engagement."
"Now that you mention it, it makes sense!" someone immediately chimed in. "Think about it carefully, after the three men's families broke off the engagement, it seems their conditions went back down, and they're now broke again."
"You know what, it really seems like Miss Ning is destined to bring good luck to her husband!" Someone else echoed.
But some people were confused: "That's not right. If Ning girl is really destined to bring good fortune to her husband, then why is it that Yan boy's family has developed so well in less than half a year since Ning girl and Yan boy were engaged, and even Ning girl's family is so rich.
Even though Ning's been engaged to someone else for a year, the man only has a little money, so it's not that prosperous at all."
Many people think it is right when they hear it.
"Is it possible," an older aunt said at this time with an extremely deep look, "that they both bring good luck to each other?"
"Huwang?" Everyone was stunned.
"That's right! Mutual prosperity!" the aunt said with even greater certainty. It was a bit of a mystical tone. "It's because Miss Ning brings prosperity to Little Yan, and Little Yan brings prosperity to Miss Ning. That's why things have been going so smoothly for our two families since their engagement! It's because prosperity is compounded! It's incomparable to any other engagement!"
"It really seems like a win-win situation!" Everyone was excited again. The more they thought about it, the more they felt that it was a win-win situation, a win-win situation.
"So Miss Ning is really destined to bring good luck to her husband, but boy Yan is destined to bring good luck to Miss Ning? Or should I say he is destined to bring good luck to his wife? So it's really double the luck? My God, no wonder the two families are getting better and better, and it's like this." Some people were even more excited.
I finally figured out why the two families are getting better and better.
Jiang Ningning, Sun, Tian, Jiang Shengcai and Xiao Fushan were just watching how the white fungus was being picked in another room. When they came out, they heard the discussion in this room and stopped in their tracks instantly.
Jiang Ningning was speechless. How did this even involve bringing prosperity to the husband and wife? And even more prosperity?
The four members of the Sun family were delighted. It turned out that what Grandpa Xiao Yan said in his vision was good for both families, because one of them was a lucky charm for the husband, and the other for the wife, which was a double blessing!
Seeing that the four Sun family members seemed to believe it, Jiang Ningning felt that her silence was deafening.
Finally, I could only look up at the sky helplessly.
At night, it was a rare opportunity for Xiao Yan to come back from the county government office and stay overnight.
When the four Tian family members saw him coming back, they pulled him aside and said happily, "Xiao Yan, you know what, we finally understand why your grandfather appeared in your dream and told you that marrying Ningning would be good for both families.
Didn’t your grandfather say at the time that this was a secret and we couldn’t reveal too much, and that we would know it later? Now we finally know it, and it really is true that we will know it later.”
"Know what?" Xiao Yan was quite confused and looked at Jiang Ningning.
Jiang Ningning looked helpless, as if she was just going to listen to what they said.
The four Tians were already eagerly saying, "Because you two bring prosperity to your husband and wife, it's double the prosperity! Everyone says so!"
