"Now that you are here, show Lord Zhou how this delicious food tastes. Eat it!"

After hearing this, several soldiers nodded immediately, and then several portions of boiled wild vegetables were brought in and placed in front of the soldiers.

But after these boiled wild vegetables were brought in, the soldiers' eyes lit up and they looked very happy.

There was even a soldier who quickly wiped the corner of his mouth with his sleeve because there was a lot of saliva there.

After seeing this, Lord Zhou was speechless for a moment.

But in the next few videos, people immediately started eating these wild vegetables.

In just a few blinks of an eye, these soldiers quickly finished eating all the boiled wild vegetables on the table, and one of them was even licking the plate.

After all, these soldiers had been notified long ago, so they seemed to be working very hard during the performance.

During this performance, they did not relax at all. Instead, they imagined the boiled wild vegetables as meat that they were about to eat.

That’s right, any actor who comes in and leaves the camp after the performance will get a portion of boiled pork slices.

Naturally, they immediately showed off their skills, fearing that Lord Zhou would notice.

After seeing this exaggerated scene, Lord Zhou was speechless for a moment. He had never expected it to be like this. That was why he was not only speechless, but he even pointed at these soldiers and wanted to speak.

Finally he spoke.

"You...you really ate these boiled wild vegetables. Aren't you afraid of choking? How did you eat something so hard to swallow?"

After hearing what he said, the soldiers also spoke up.

"My Lord, don't you know that boiled wild vegetable milk is a very delicious delicacy? It is enough to eat it once a day!"

"That's right, Lord Zhou. As a court minister, have you never eaten boiled wild vegetables? This is very delicious. We have eaten it every day for the past three months!"

"That's right. If we don't eat this delicacy, we'll have to eat tree roots. After all, the money the court gives us is not much, so we can only be considerate of the court!"

After hearing what the soldiers said, Lord Zhou actually felt more guilty!

He had come here to make some money, but he hadn't expected it to be like this. Moreover, when he saw these soldiers eating boiled weeds, he was even more convinced that these soldiers had probably been eating weeds for several months.

After thinking about this, he felt even more like a non-human. After all, if he tried harder, he might be able to help them urge the Ministry of Revenue.

But now it is like this. Lord Zhou, even if you have no conscience in your heart, you will naturally feel guilty when you encounter such a moment.

"Well...why don't you guys eat something good? Besides, is there no meat or anything like that in the entire military camp? If there's no meat, there should at least be some ordinary vegetables, right?"

The soldiers didn't say anything, but Si Yin spoke instead.

"Sir Zhou, we did have some vegetables before, but because of the plague, the prices of those vegetables increased greatly, so we couldn't buy them. Moreover, even the people around us couldn't provide them for us..."

"We have food for thousands of people here. How can we possibly provide enough? So we can only do this reluctantly..."

"But Lord Zhou, please rest assured, the court and you too. Although we have to eat some wild grass, it is enough. After all, we haven't set out yet. If we really set out, it will be a bit difficult..."

After hearing this, Lord Zhou nodded slightly.

Although he had believed it in his heart, his worldview had not yet been corrected. He could not imagine how the soldiers could eat wild grass for several months.

And the most important thing is that he came here to inspect the military camp this time, but now he has discovered such a situation. Should he report it or not?

Just at this time, Lord Zhou thought about it for a moment and immediately spoke.

"Why not call a few more soldiers in? I want to understand the situation. Maybe then I can speak well of you to the court and the prime minister and see if they can give you more silver..."

After hearing this, Si Yin nodded quickly and walked out of the camp.

But for him, this is the real performance moment.

He immediately found a few soldiers who had been instructed in advance and went in.

Among these soldiers there was actually a soldier who had a piece of wild grass in his mouth, and he would take a bite from time to time.

After seeing the appearance of this soldier, Lord Zhou was extremely shocked, but he did not speak at this time. Instead, he spoke to the people in front of him.

"How are you...how are you doing in the military camp now? Is there anyone who wants to go home?"

One of the younger soldiers spoke immediately.

"Yes, I want to go home... Can you let me go back home? There is no war now, so it would be better for me to go back home and do more farming for my family..."

"Now it's spring ploughing time again. I'm missing from the family. Forget about me, a middle-aged man. I thought I could have a good meal at home, but I didn't expect to end up in this place. I've been eating spring grass for two whole months..."

"Although the prince treats me like a son, and everyone in the camp is very warm to me, making me reluctant to go home, I also hope that the court can provide more delicious food to the military camp. Although I have only adapted to wild grass, I still want to eat some big steamed buns..."

After hearing what the soldier said, Lord Zhou was speechless. After all, his son was the same age as the young man in front of him.

After hearing this, he immediately nodded and looked at the other soldiers.

"No, I don't miss home. This place is like my home. Coming here is like going home!"

"That's right, how could I miss home? This young man has just arrived. People like us who have been called up several times know that the prince leads us the best, so of course we don't want to go back casually!"

"That's right, I don't want to go home, but I hope to have more delicious food..."
