"How many?"
"How much are you telling me?"
Gu Zhenbei picked his ears, fearing that they were blocked by dirt and he didn't hear Xiao Jingzhou's words clearly.
Thirty thousand kilograms of grain?
Not three hundred kilograms, not three thousand kilograms!
It turned out to be 30,000 kilograms of food!
With so much food, even if he set out to suppress the bandits, he would have to prepare it for some time and wait for the court to allocate it.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, the gods would send them 30,000 kilograms of food!
When five thousand steamed buns poured out of the wooden bowl, he was so shocked that his jaw dropped.
He didn't even dare to imagine what kind of expression he would have if 30,000 kilograms of food fell from the sky!
...
...
Xiao Jingzhou saw him open his mouth with a look of disbelief.
Just hand him the note and let him read it carefully.
Gu Zhenbei took the note, read the words carefully, and smiled with his teeth showing.
"Very good!"
"Now everyone in this town is saved!"
Before this, he heard Zhou Wu say that there were five or six thousand people in the town.
With 30,000 kilograms of food, if we eat a little more frugally, we can at least survive another month.
Xiao Jingzhou took the letter back and told Lu Chen about it.
"Thirty thousand kilograms of grain is too heavy. The wooden bowl should be placed away from the pond to avoid it collapsing."
Lu Chen said happily: "Yes!"
Lu Chen held the wooden bowl and found an empty space to put it down.
Not long after he put down the wooden bowl, a bag of soybeans in transparent packaging poured out of the bowl.
It hit him right on the foot.
“Ouch!”
Seeing this, Gu Zhenbei ran over quickly, grabbed Lu Chen by the scruff of the neck with one hand, and dragged him out of the range of the wooden bowl.
More and more food came out of the wooden bowl, faster and faster.
Lu Chen was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.
He ignored the pain in his feet, patted his chest, clasped his fists and bowed to Gu Zhenbei.
"Thank you very much, General, for saving me!"
Gu Zhenbei waved his hand indifferently, his eyes never leaving the wooden bowl.
Half an hour later, 30,000 kilograms of grain had piled up into a small hill beside the pond.
"Stopped?"
Seeing that the wooden bowl was no longer spewing food, Lu Chen limped over, picked up the wooden bowl and walked back to Xiao Jingzhou.
When he came back, he had a handful of scattered beans in his hand.
"Your Highness, look at the beans given by the gods."
Gu Zhenbei had already run to the soybean pile, grinning with his teeth bared.
“Your Highness, these beans are plump.
I have lived for so many years and have never seen such good food. ”
He grabbed a handful of soybeans and stuffed them into his mouth. The bean fragrance instantly lingered in his mouth.
“It smells so good!”
“Delicious! Really delicious!”
Xiao Jingzhou picked up a few soybeans and thought to himself that it would be great if the Da Jing Dynasty could also grow such high-quality soybeans.
He ordered: “Lu Chen, go call some people and go back to the town.
Spread the news that there is water and food here to the people in the town. ”
Lu Chen stretched his legs. Fortunately, he didn't hurt any bones or muscles, so the pain was gone.
He packed the wooden bowl in a bag, handed it to Xiao Jingzhou, and went to find the Gu family who had evacuated early.
Although the Gu family evacuated early, they were still waiting for Xiao Jingzhou and the others.
Therefore, Lu Chen didn't run far before he found the Gu family.
When the old lady learned about the situation, she felt that it was too unsafe for everyone to disperse, so she asked Lu Chen to take a few people and go first, and they would follow later.
Lu Chen returned and brought back seven servants of the Gu family.
Xiao Jingzhou ordered: "Take a few bags of steamed buns back to town.
Try to bring as much food as possible to the town, so that the people in the town will believe that there is food here.
If you encounter people scrambling for steamed buns, it is better to be careful. ”
Lu Chen took the order, and several people carried a bag of steamed buns on their shoulders and ran towards the town.
Not long after, Madam Gu brought her people to meet Xiao Jingzhou and the others.
“Oh my god!”
"Oh my god!"
"I am not dreaming! There is so much food! It has piled up like a mountain!"
"Beans. They are all beans."
“What beautiful beans!”
When the three families saw the mountains of food, they wished they could bury themselves in them.
Old Madam Gu walked quickly to Xiao Jingzhou, walked around him, and was relieved when she found that he was not injured.
She pointed at the food and a pond of water and asked in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, are these all the food given by the gods?"
Gu Zhenbei had just finished coaxing Zhou Shuyun and felt satisfied after receiving a hammer blow on the chest when he heard his mother's words.
He smiled and said, "Yes, this is all food given by the gods!"
Old Madam Gu opened her mouth in surprise, exactly the same expression as Gu Zhenbei had before.
Xiao Jingzhou said: "Lu Chen went to lead the people in the town here.
The people have been hungry for days. When they learn that there is food here, they will definitely come straight here. Who knows what kind of trouble will happen then.
Grandmother, you guys should hide first and don't let any people get hurt by mistake. ”
Madam Gu reacted and nodded seriously: "That makes sense. I will take people to hide right away."
About ten meters away from the pond is a scorched bamboo forest.
The group walked towards the bamboo forest.
Gu Zhenbei saw Xiao Jingzhou still there and was about to call him.
Xiao Jingzhou took out a piece of paper, put it under the sack of soybeans, and immediately followed their pace.
The other side.
Lu Chen led his men to the gate of the village, shouting that there was water and food in the pond.
The people lying on the ground remained pale and motionless when they heard the news that there was food.
Bandits had used this trick before, deceiving and killing many people.
With a thud.
The steamed bun fell to the ground.
A man, with skin and ribs covered, curled up on his side on the ground, was awakened by the noise around him.
He opened his eyes and saw a dusty bun.
In shock, he stretched out his hand that was like a dry branch. Before he could grab the steamed bun, someone snatched it away.
"Mantou! It's mantou!"
“There really is food!”
Steamed buns fell to the ground like rain.
The people outside the village gate saw the steamed buns on the ground and pounced on them like hungry wolves.
Soon, people started biting and fighting over a steamed bun.
Soon, the people outside the village gate discovered the source of the steamed buns and prepared to rush forward to grab them.
Fortunately, the servant of the Gu family was alert and discovered the motives of these people. He grabbed the bottom of the transparent bag and shook it hard, and all the buns rolled to the ground.
When the people saw the steamed buns scattered everywhere, they turned around and ran in the direction of the steamed buns.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Lu Chen ordered five people to stand outside the village gate and lead people to the pond.
He ran into the town with a few people, throwing steamed buns as he ran, and took the opportunity to shout:
"There is water by the pond, and there are lots of steamed buns. God bless you, everyone, go quickly!"
Those who failed to grab the steamed buns caught the news that there were steamed buns by the pond.
Then I watched the people around me grab the steamed buns.
They all stretched out their skinny legs and rushed towards the pond.
Lu Chen ran into the village gate and saw people dying of hunger everywhere on the street.
He threw the steamed buns and shouted loudly.
With the movement outside the village gate, these people were quickly guided, climbed up with difficulty, and walked towards the pond with their thin legs.
I’m afraid I’ll be a step behind others and end up not getting anything.
After throwing the steamed buns, Lu Chen saw that the mission was completed and was about to lead his men out of the town.
As he passed by a broken window.
Suddenly, a dark and skinny hand grabbed his arm tightly!
