A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan

Upon hearing that there was a flood in Lanzhou, Cheng Ying hurriedly asked, "Is the news true?"

Shi Mobai nodded and said, "My father said it was an urgent memorial sent by the prefectural magistrate of Lanzhou. However, it has been almost half a month since it arrived in Jingzhou from Lanzhou."

"It's been so long, we can't delay any longer. Come on, take me to your father."

"it is good!"

So Cheng Ying and Shi Mobai hurried off to find Duke Anguo.

Upon inquiry, it was discovered that An Guozheng was in the Imperial Study discussing the matter with the Emperor, the Minister of Revenue, and several other important ministers!

The two rushed to the outside of the Imperial Study and sent someone inside to inform the Emperor.

In the imperial study, the emperor frowned and asked, "Isn't there any other way?"

The Minister of Revenue said, "Your Majesty, how about having people take silver and collect grain along the way to Lanzhou? Would this method be feasible?"

However, his idea was immediately rejected by the Duke of Anguo: "Minister Cao, don't forget, it's already several days too late to go to Lanzhou now, we can't delay any longer."

"That's how it is. We still have to hurry to Lanzhou. If we are delayed in collecting grain along the way, we may not make it in time."

"Think about it, if we had arrived any later, what percentage of the people in Lanzhou would still be alive?"

After Duke Anguo finished speaking, all the ministers and the emperor shook their heads and sighed with worry!

"What should we do? If anyone has grain on hand, bring it over immediately so we can use it first, and we can pay them later!"

"But the problem now is, who has that much grain?"

"Besides, even if we have grain now, the situation won't be optimistic once it gets to Lanzhou!"

"What's more, we have neither food nor time! What are we going to do?"

Just when everyone was at a loss, a young eunuch came in and whispered a few words in Eunuch Yuanfu's ear.

Yuanfu, the eunuch, immediately lit up. He went to the emperor's side and whispered, "Your Majesty, Miss Lin and Young Master Jiang outside are requesting to see you. Miss Lin said they have grain on hand."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor immediately stood up excitedly and asked, "Is this true?"

"Miss Lin and Young Master Jiang are right outside. Why don't we invite them in and ask them for details?"

"Yes! Quickly, invite them in!"

"Yes!"

Seeing the emperor's agitated state, the ministers and the Duke of Anguo wondered if things had taken a turn for the better.

So everyone looked towards the door to see who had arrived.

When they saw two small figures enter, they were greatly disappointed, of course, not including the Duke of Anguo and the Emperor!

Because only the two of them truly know that these two children, having found a divine master, might actually have some good ideas.

After the two entered, they bowed and greeted each other. Cheng Ying said, "Your Majesty, I heard from Junior Brother Jiang that the Duke of Anguo is going to Lanzhou to provide disaster relief, so I came here specifically."

Duke Anguo asked anxiously, "Miss Lin, do you have any way to get more grain? We have two things worrying us right now!"

"The first problem is that we haven't collected enough grain yet, and the second is the transportation issue. May I ask if Miss Lin has any good solutions?"

Duke Anguo remembered seeing those magical vehicles when he was in Yelang Mountain in Fengqi City, especially the ones with rear cargo beds, which were perfect for hauling grain!

Moreover, it was much faster than a horse-drawn carriage. He looked at Cheng Ying expectantly.

Cheng Ying nodded to Duke Anguo and said, "Don't worry, Duke Anguo, that's why I've come."

Cheng Ying faced the emperor and said, "This humble woman is willing to donate some grain and supplies. I have come here specifically to ask when the Duke of Anguo and His Majesty plan to depart, so that I can make arrangements for the grain and supplies."

The Emperor's eyes lit up, and he asked eagerly, "Miss Lin, how much grain and supplies can you donate?"

Cheng Ying calmly replied, "Fifty thousand shi of grain, as well as various kinds of cloth, medicines and other supplies."

These words shocked everyone present. The Minister of Revenue stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "Fifty thousand shi? Miss, that's no small amount!"

Cheng Ying smiled and said, "Although my junior brother and I are young, we know the suffering of the people. My master often taught us to have the well-being of all people in our hearts. Now that Lanzhou is suffering from disaster, we should do our part."

Duke Anguo nodded approvingly: "Miss Lin's actions are truly commendable."

The Emperor was overjoyed and said, "With these grains and supplies, there is hope for this disaster relief effort. Miss Lin, these supplies can be directly handed over to the Duke of Anguo for transport to Lanzhou."

Cheng Ying nodded in agreement! The ministers' expressions of disappointment turned to surprise and delight, and they all praised the two for their benevolence and righteousness.

Cheng Ying and Shi Mobai exchanged a smile. They knew that it was all worthwhile to do their part for the people of Lanzhou.

Then, Cheng Ying continued, "The journey is long, but I have a carriage that can travel a thousand miles a day. I am willing to lend Duke Anguo a helping hand."

Cheng Ying deliberately reduced the vehicle's speed by ten times to avoid startling them.

The ministers were all incredulous upon hearing this, thinking that the girl was exaggerating.

After all, they had never seen a vehicle like this before.
