Chapter 28 Begging the Old Madam to Save the General
Zhou Nan came over with Butler Zhou.
He kept reminiscing about the taste of instant noodles the whole way.
"Dad, what do you think the world of immortals is like? How can they have noodles that taste so good and are so easy to eat?"
"The bowl of noodles I just ate had beef and egg pieces in it, it tasted so good."
"Even if I had to eat instant noodles for the rest of my life, I would be willing."
Butler Zhou's mind seemed to be filled with only the three words "instant noodles".
It's really annoying to listen to.
Why do you talk so much?
"If you're still talking so much in front of the old lady, then you shouldn't have come along."
Zhou Nan retorted, "I'm much more useful to the old lady than you are, Father. Even if I don't want to go, the old lady won't allow it."
Butler Zhou rolled his eyes at him: "You're just spouting nonsense."
Upon arriving at Haitang Garden, where Yu Wanwan was staying, Zhou Nan instantly forgot all about instant noodles.
He was so surprised by what was taken out that he wanted to scream out loud.
Five hundred bags of rice, each weighing fifty kilograms.
There are also fifty packs of 10-jin (5 kg) Daohuaxiang rice.
Five hundred barrels of bottled water.
Two hundred bags of flour.
Three hundred packs of noodles
One hundred barrels of cooking oil.
Three boxes of table salt.
Three boxes of white sugar.
Twenty cans of milk powder.
Various seasonings, scallions, ginger, and garlic.
There is also fresh meat, pork, beef, lamb, chicken, fish, vegetables, and fruit.
Yu Wanwan only took out a few dozen kilograms of fresh meat and vegetables.
The rest are stored in the space to keep them fresh.
Yu Wanwan didn't take out any snacks or drinks either.
These can be placed in her yard, and she can do whatever she wants with them.
She didn't take out any other items, such as tissues, sanitary napkins, or power banks.
Just looking at the things she took out, Zhou Nan was so excited that he touched them here and there.
"Madam, were these also given to you by the gods?"
"The goddess has given you so many things; she is truly a wonderful goddess."
Butler Zhou's eyes reddened as he looked at all the food.
He knelt down on the ground with a thud, pulling Zhou Nan along with him, saying, "Thank you, God, thank you, God."
He kowtowed repeatedly.
Yu Wanwan gritted her teeth as she watched; just looking at it hurt.
If she didn't speak up and stop him quickly, she was afraid he would really go to see the "gods".
"Steward Zhou, stand up and speak."
"I called you here because I wanted to ask you, there's so much grain that we can't possibly eat it all, so I'd like to use it to help more people solve their food and clothing problems."
"What do you think would be the best way to arrange it?"
As the steward of the General's Mansion, Steward Zhou was essentially the general manager of a large company.
She is definitely much better at handling this kind of thing than a student like her.
Fearing that Butler Zhou might have concerns, Yu Wanwan added another explanation.
"You don't need to worry about the future supply of food. The gods promised me that they would continue to supply me with food."
The next batch of grain should arrive in ten days, and the quantity will only be greater than it is now.
Butler Zhou frowned.
Hesitant to speak.
Yu Wanwan looked at his expression with some confusion.
"Steward Zhou, what's wrong? Do you think this grain shouldn't be taken out?"
Previously, there was too little food, and it was uncertain when she would travel back in time, so no one could know. Even if she took some out, she could only do so secretly.
But now that the amount of grain has increased several times and it has been confirmed that the grain supply will continue, does Steward Zhou still not agree to take it out and want to eat it all by himself?
If people from the General's Mansion were to walk out together with people from other mansions in the future...
The people in their household are all plump and fair-skinned, while everyone else is skin and bones. This will eventually come to light.
What if they get surrounded and attacked?
I wonder if the twenty people in the general's mansion can fight against all the people in the capital who are starving.
Furthermore, if the emperor of the current dynasty finds out afterward that their family stole grain, will he execute their entire clan?
"Steward Zhou, you really don't need to worry. Even if all this grain is distributed, our manor will not lack food."
Yu Wanwan felt she had to nip Zhou's terrible idea of hogging all the food in the bud.
Butler Zhou knelt down again with a thud.
"This servant begs the old lady to allow me to send someone to deliver the grain to the general."
"Of the 200,000 troops led by the general, only 20,000 remain. In order to save the lives of the army, even the warhorses have been slaughtered."
The border people have also suffered heavy casualties, and now they are even resorting to cannibalism.
If there is no more food and water supply, even without enemy troops, the general, his 20,000 soldiers, and the people of the northwest border will probably be in dire straits…”
They didn't have much food before, and they didn't know that the gods would continue to send them food.
Butler Zhou dared not bring it up.
Now, however, I have no choice but to speak up.
Yu Wanwan gasped.
Of the 200,000 troops, only 20,000 survived.
They even killed their warhorses for food?
Did the people exchange their own children to eat them?
Has her cheap husband's situation really become so miserable?
However, she frowned.
"At first glance, this amount of grain seems like a lot, but there are 20,000 soldiers in the military camp alone. Even if this grain were used to cook porridge, it wouldn't be enough to feed them for a day."
"Besides, there isn't even a horse in the general's mansion, so how are you going to deliver the grain?"
Moving it manually? The entire general's mansion, including us, only has about twenty people in total. How can we move it? And how much can we move?
"If we really carry so much grain out, let alone deliver it to the border, it won't even be able to get out of the city gates of the capital before it's all looted. We might not even be able to survive then."
There is a very good way to transport grain.
She put all the food back into her spatial storage.
She delivered it herself.
But if she were to deliver it now, delivering such a small amount of food wouldn't make much sense.
Once we get there, there will definitely be no children in the military camp.
The people on the border have also died, and it is unknown how many children are left. The space upgrade is slow there.
This would result in only being able to stockpile a small amount of food each time.
Let everyone have a full day, then go hungry for ten days or so, and then wait for the next time travel.
It's too inefficient for her to deliver things now.
It's better to stay in the capital and level up properly.
Butler Zhou regained his senses.
After considering what Yu Wanwan had just said, he said apologetically, "This servant was not considerate enough. Please punish me, Madam."
Yu Wanwan rolled her eyes.
"You were just worried about the general and the others, that's why you were in such a hurry. Why should I punish you?"
"But you don't need to worry too much. I assure you, at most one month, I will personally deliver the food and water to the general."
We've made it through three years, so one more month shouldn't be a problem, right?
Yu Wanwan wasn't quite sure either.
But that's all we can do. Besides, even if she disregarded everything and set off immediately to deliver the things to him, it would take forever to get them delivered with just two bicycles.
She will try to get a car a month later; it will be faster to deliver it by car.
She needs to make a note on her phone so she can download some driving videos to learn next time she goes back.
She was still a minor without a driver's license.
"You don't need to worry about these grains anymore; I've figured out how to manage them."
She wants to upgrade!
