Until the first soldier stepped out of the line and came back with two large bowls in trembling hands, the military camp instantly exploded, as if a drop of cold water was dropped into a frying pan, causing it to boil.

"What the hell is that Zhang Laosan brought? It looks delicious."

"Oh my god, there's ice in there! There's ice!"

"Are you kidding me?"

“There’s real ice!”

Zhang Laosan took a sip carefully, his eyes lit up, his face full of disbelief, and he shouted loudly: "It's really icy! And it's so sweet! There's sugar in it!"

Sugar was very precious in ancient times. Almost all soldiers were born in poverty, and many of them may have never tasted sugar in their entire lives.

Zhang Laosan took another sip and almost cried, "It's so comfortable and delicious. I've never eaten anything so delicious in my life!"

Upon hearing this, all the soldiers looked forward to it even more. They pricked up their eyes and stared at the shade of the trees in front of them, hoping that it would be their turn soon.

After drinking the cold drink, every soldier let out a sigh of satisfaction.

In this hot afternoon, being able to drink such a sweet and refreshing cold drink is really a rare enjoyment and happiness.

It took Xie Ling and her team more than half an hour to distribute the rations to all the soldiers.

Each person is limited to two servings of ice jelly and pearl milk tea, which is certainly not enough to satisfy your craving.

The lemonade and iced mung bean soup on the side are unlimited, and soldiers can drink as much as they want.

Ji Ke and Liao Qizhu also came over. Ji Ke started to pester Qianniang again. He refused to accept the food that others served him and insisted on running to Qianniang to ask her to serve him some.

Qianniang scolded him while filling a large bowl with rice.

Wu Daqiang drank the pearl milk tea that his wife had served him, and shook his head happily, praising, "It tastes good, so good!"

After sighing, he said loudly: "Who should we thank for being able to drink such a comfortable cold drink?"

The soldiers responded in unison, saying, "Thank you, ma'am!"

The lady not only improved their food, but also helped them rebuild the barracks. Now seeing that they were tired, she even made cold drinks for them...

Madam, you really treat them as human beings!

All the soldiers had tears in their eyes and stared at Xie Ling as if Xie Ling was their reborn parent.

Xie Ling felt embarrassed, turned her head slightly, and cleared her throat, "Don't thank me, thank the county magistrate if you want to thank him, he is the one who allocated the funds."

A soldier said loudly, "We still have to thank you. If it weren't for you, who would help us make so many cold drinks? Who would rebuild the barracks and the public toilets for us? To be honest, ma'am, you really care about us."

Xie Ling felt warm in her heart after hearing these words.

As expected, the old saying is true. If you put the people in your hearts, the people will hold you high.

Xie Ling curled her lips and said, "As long as you work hard and train well, you will definitely get benefits in the future."

After saying this, he took his women relatives to the salt field.

It’s getting late and there are still two salt fields that haven’t distributed ice powder yet, so we have to hurry.

The salt workers' reaction to the cold drink was even greater than that of the soldiers.

They simply couldn't believe that the cold, mouth-watering food in the bowl was for them?

Some people even wanted to kneel down to Xie Ling.

"I have never seen such a good boss in my life!"

It’s not their fault. Salt workers have a low status and are not allowed to leave the salt field for their entire lives. They are almost like dogs raised by the employer. Who has ever enjoyed such treatment?

Not only have their meals improved, they can get some rest and apply for medical treatment, but now they are even given the best food they have never eaten in their lives.

After some comforting, Xie Ling left the salt field and returned home.

These salt workers looked at Xie Ling's departing back, and each of them swore in their heart that they would work hard to repay their employer's kindness.

After Gu Wei finished dealing with the affairs of the county government, he returned to the barracks. As soon as he walked in, he heard a soldier shouting loudly: "The county magistrate is here!"

He was a little puzzled. He usually came here to supervise and inspect, so why was he so excited today?

Just as he was thinking about it, he was surrounded by a group of soldiers, who looked at him with winks and expressions as if they were about to cry.

Gu Wei:?

Then, the limbs were lifted up and thrown into the air.

Fortunately, Gu Wei has a strong psychological quality, otherwise he would have been scared to death.

After one team of soldiers finished throwing it, the next team of soldiers rushed up, one after another, throwing it into the air, cheering loudly as they did so.

Gu Wei grew up in a military camp and had not seen such a warm and harmonious atmosphere for a long time. He did not interrupt the soldiers' celebration.

He was thrown up and down constantly, and if it weren't for his excellent martial arts skills, he would have vomited his lunch.

From the soldiers' words, he realized what his wife had done in his name.

His eyes were full of intoxicating tenderness, and he waved his hands, "No, no, let's drink today!"

There was another round of cheers.

Gu Wei quickly used his Qinggong skills to jump down, fearing that this group of passionate soldiers would get excited and throw him into the air again.

Then he quickly followed Wu Daqiang to get the wine.

He is in a good mood and must have good wine to accompany him!

There is a big temperature difference between day and night in Lingnan. It is very comfortable at night with cool breeze and bright moon in the sky.

The soldiers sat in a big circle in the center of the unfinished military camp, drinking, dancing with swords, chatting and laughing.

Gu Wei sat on the ground, not caring at all about the dirt staining his neat and solemn official robe. He laughed heartily, his eyes full of stars.

The moonlight was clear and time went backwards. For a moment he seemed to be the eighteen-year-old young King of Zhenbei again. A hall full of flowers intoxicated three thousand guests, a sword froze fourteen states, a young genius, and the solemnity of the seven kingdoms.

Wu Daqiang, who was standing by, watched as his eyes became slightly moist.

That’s great, that’s great!

He raised his glass and said loudly: "A beautiful day and a beautiful scenery, let it be revealed in a big way!"

———

Three days later, it's time to produce salt.

Xie Ling hadn't been this nervous for a long time. She took a carriage to the salt field early in the morning.

Everyone in the salt field felt the same as Xie Ling at this moment.

Can it really produce so much salt?
