Chapter 56: Building a porridge shed, waiting for food



Xiao Jingzhou and his group returned to their destination.

The women in the family all ate dry food. The scene of entering the city during the day left a deep shadow on them, so they went to bed early.

When Zhou Wu saw the few people coming back, he hurried forward to greet them.

"temple……"

Lu Chen interrupted him and reminded: "Young Master."

Zhou Wu immediately changed his words: "Young Master, Zhang Da and his men entered the government office, and we were too late to get in.

After that, no one answered the door no matter how many times he knocked. ”

Xiao Jingzhou let Zhang Da go so that he could go to the government office to find out the situation in Zhiyi City.

He said, "No problem."

"We will build a porridge shed tomorrow to provide porridge to the people.

...

...

If you are free, take the officials with you to help. ”

Zhou Wu took the order and went to the next yard to rest without disturbing him.

Lu Chen took Lu Feng to place the tablet of the Grand Tutor.

Gu Zhenbei accompanied Xiao Jingzhou and wrote letters to the gods.

When Xiao Jingzhou received the two letters, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Gu Zhenbei whispered, "Your Highness, what good news did the gods bring?"

Xiao Jingzhou's eyebrows softened, and his voice was gentle: "The gods said that they would send us 100,000 kilograms of rice tomorrow, and also send us a super powerful pot!"

One hundred thousand kilograms of rice?

Gu Zhenbei pinched his ears. Did he hear it right?

It can be done in just two days!

He is worthy of being a god, super invincible and powerful!

And that super awesome cauldron? What kind of pot is this?

He began to look forward to it!

He smiled so hard that his teeth could be seen: "Your Highness, with these 100,000 kilograms of rice.

The people of Zhiyi City are finally saved! ”

Xiao Jingzhou was also very happy. He had been worried that there was too little food and not enough to feed 100,000 people.

If 100,000 people scrambled for food, I'm afraid Zhiyi City would be a river of blood.

This was a scene he didn't want to see.

Xiao Jingzhou said: "One hundred thousand kilograms of rice, three meals a day, thick porridge, the people of the whole city can eat for three days."

Gu Zhenbei was stunned by the good news and nodded rapidly.

Xiao Jingzhou put away the letter, looked up and saw the bright moon hanging in the night sky, with a soft smile in his eyes.

21st century.

Jiang Zhenyu contacted a factory that makes large pots for export last night.

She saw this factory when she was watching a short video and saw that it could cook for 3,000 people. Out of curiosity, she clicked on the little heart button.

I didn't expect it would come in handy now.

The factory can make large pots with a diameter of 1-6 meters. There is a small amount of 3-4 meters in stock, and 5-6 meters needs to be customized.

A 3-4 meter pot can provide food for 2,000 to 3,000 people.

Jiang Zhenyu bought 30 steel plate pots at one time.

There are 5 3-meter large pots and 6 4-meter large pots.

There are 9 2-meter large pots and 10 1-meter large pots.

Including the stainless steel base under the pot, the total cost was 450,000 yuan.

In this way, food for 100,000 people can be prepared in one go.

She placed the order and the boss promised to arrange the shipment this morning and asked her to prepare the crane to unload the goods.

Jiang Zhenyu took into account that a large amount of water was needed and that large water plants could only produce 30,000 to 40,000 barrels of water a day.

Buying so much water would cost more than buying rice.

Therefore, she simply did not consider bottled water.

Jiang Zhenyu thought of the fertilizer barrels used on the farm. A large barrel cost 5,000 yuan and could hold 10 tons of water.

This bucket can not only be used by climbing a ladder, but can also be buried underground and used as a small well.

She ordered 10 buckets and spent 50,000 yuan.

I placed orders for everything I needed to buy last night.

He also asked Uncle Zhang to contact the forklift operator and the crane operator.

Everything is ready. We are just waiting to receive the goods today and send them to Xiao Jingzhou.

Xiao Jingzhou got up early and went to the South Gate with a group of officials.

At that time, Yang Jin had already brought soldiers to clean up the area at the South Gate.

The soldiers had a full meal yesterday and recovered a lot of strength today.

Everybody was thinking about drinking porridge, so they worked much faster and everyone was very motivated.

After the officers had their breakfast, they put down their swords and joined the team clearing the area.

Yang Jin saw the knife in the corner and felt confused.

Although Gu Zhenbei was a general, he traveled to the north without bringing his soldiers with him.

It is unbelievable that he brought so many officials with him.

However, he didn't intend to ask more questions, as less trouble is better.

From now on, when the emperor asks him questions, he will be able to answer them all without knowing anything.

In order to quickly clean up the South Gate area, Yang Jin divided the team into two groups.

A group of people built a porridge shed and built a stove and pot.

A group of people went to carry a large amount of firewood to cook porridge.

The soldiers were squatting on the ground building a stove. When Xiao Jingzhou passed by, he saw a rusty big pot.

A soldier ran up to Yang Jin and said, "General, the cauldron has been rusted after not being used for a long time.

Shall we cook porridge in a rusty pot? ”

Yang Jin scolded: "There's no water to drink, and you're still thinking about washing the pot!"

Then he thought for a moment and said, "Use a stone to scrape off the rust. The less you drink, the better."

The soldier took the order and left, and Xiao Jingzhou said nothing more.

Jiang Zhenyu told him that there was a pot, but did not say when it would be delivered. Preparations were essential at the moment.

As it was approaching noon, the firewood piled against the wall was almost three meters high.

The stove has been built and the rusty pot has been set up, just waiting for the rice to be put in to cook porridge.

After a busy morning, the soldiers finally prepared everything and were so happy that they almost danced with joy.

"Great! Finally the pot is set up!"

"Now we just have to wait for the rice and water to cook."

"The steamed buns I ate last night made me dizzy with their delicious aroma.

If I can have a mouthful of hot porridge today, it will be enough for my life! ”

Everything was ready, and Yang went into the granary to find Xiao Jingzhou.

The tone was very respectful.

"Mr. Gu, the porridge shed has been set up."

"Excuse me, sir, when can the food be transported into the city?"

Yang Jin looked at the empty granary and felt worried.

So much grain has not yet been stored in the granary.

Where should it be placed?

Thanks to the steamed buns and dumplings last night, Yang Jin was convinced that Xiao Jingzhou could get food.

For a moment, I didn't even think about deceiving him.

Xiao Jingzhou thought that the time he had agreed to meet with Jiang Zhenyu was approaching.

He explained: "The food will be delivered to the city soon, please wait a moment, General Yang.

Once the grain arrives in the city, I will send someone to ask the general for help. ”

Yang Jin looked at Xiao Jingzhou's solemn oath, and as soon as he had doubts in his mind, he was strangled to death in the cradle.

He guessed that Xiao Jingzhou might not want him to know the secret and wanted to get rid of him.

Thinking about this, Yang Jin felt that his guess made a lot of sense.

After he convinced himself, he laughed out loud.

"Okay, okay. I'll take my men back to the barracks and wait for good news from you, sir."

After Yang Jin took his men away, Lu Chen walked to Xiao Jingzhou holding the wooden bowl.

"Young Master, this wooden bowl hasn't moved yet. How about we write another letter to the gods?"

The letter must be written, not just for the people of the city.

Yang Jin will trust him for now, if he cannot provide food today.

Yang Jin will think that he has been cheated, and perhaps everyone in the Gu family will become his victims.

Xiao Jingzhou said: "Bring me some paper and pen!"

This letter concerns the lives of many people, he must write it well!
