Chapter 179 God of War
Lu Shiyan found five people in total, and Jiang Tangtang finally chose the three Yuan brothers to follow him.
Yuan San and Yuan Si are twin brothers. Although they are young, they are both skilled in martial arts and smart and quick-witted.
In fact, Jiang Tangtang felt that it was a waste of talent to have two people serve as her guards, but Lu Shiyan was worried about her safety, so he had to let the two stay by her side until Guo Yu was found.
Hearing Yuan San's call, Jiang Tangtang hurriedly changed her clothes that were covered in mud. Before going out, she looked carefully in the mirror to make sure that nothing was missed. Then she came out of the space and opened the cabin door.
The Yuan brothers were much more careful than Guo Yu. In front of them, Jiang Tangtang had to stay alert to prevent them from noticing anything unusual.
As soon as the door opened, Yuan San said, "Madam, many refugees gathered around the boat as soon as it landed. I will protect you and take you quietly in the boat to avoid being hit by anyone."
Jiang Tangtang raised her hand to stop him, saying, "No, I want to see those refugees."
Although she came here to resettle refugees, she was actually recruiting talents for herself.
But if she keeps hiding and doesn't even dare to show her face, how can she convince others and make them follow her willingly?
"But those refugees are starving, and there are many desperate criminals among them..."
The key is that there are not only refugees in there, but also people with ulterior motives who will cause trouble.
Yuan San tried to persuade him, but Jiang Tangtang raised her hand to stop him, saying, "I've made up my mind. You don't need to say anything more."
She looked like a delicate flower, but when she was serious she had a unique aura. Yuan San felt strange and didn't dare to say anything. He just lowered his head and said, "I will arrange it right away."
Jiang Tangtang was quite satisfied with his performance and ordered, "Have someone set up the big pot and prepare the porridge."
After arriving at the deserted island, the first thing she did was to discuss with Xie Xin the construction of a lookout tower, and the second was to organize people to open up wasteland and develop agriculture and animal husbandry.
The island is rich in natural resources. When Jiang Tangtang was leading people to open up wasteland on the island, he discovered a lot of cassava.
Although cassava is poisonous, its rhizome is rich in starch and is a good food for satisfying hunger. However, if cassava is properly processed to remove the toxins, it can save many lives.
The method to prevent cassava poisoning is actually very simple. Just peel the cassava before eating it and soak the potato flesh in clean water for about 6 days to remove 70% of the cyanogenic glycosides. Then heat and cook it before eating.
Jiang Tangtang asked the islanders to take out some cassava rhizomes for continued planting, and kept the rest as food.
This time when she came to Yazhou, she asked someone to bring a lot of cassava.
As for the sweet potatoes in her space, she planned to find an opportunity to take them out after settling down in Yazhou.
Although she had been prepared, Jiang Tangtang was still shocked by the number of refugees and their miserable situation.
Some people even
People frantically climbed onto the boat, and some even rushed towards Jiang Tangtang regardless of anything.
Yuan Si stood in front of Jiang Tangtang at the right moment and said loudly, "This is the wife of the God of War Lu. Everyone, please don't crowd. Madam Lu brought food this time to save us. Please don't hurt her."
War God Lu is the title given to Lu Shiyan by the common people.
When people heard that it was the wife of the God of War, they all stopped what they were doing.
Jiang Tangtang hurriedly said loudly, "Everyone line up. I'll have someone cook the porridge first. We'll discuss the next arrangements after we eat."
Hearing that food would be available soon and that there would be further arrangements later, the refugees felt they had seen hope and obediently lined up according to Jiang Tangtang's instructions.
The people Jiang Tangtang brought also quickly made a fire, put the cassava that had been detoxified long ago into the pot, and started to cook it.
Although the pot was full of cassava, there was not a single grain of rice.
But the refugees had been hungry for many days. They had been relying on tree bark and grass roots to fill their stomachs. Now they ate the soft and glutinous cassava without any disgust, as if they were eating delicacies from land and sea.
The refugees ate contentedly, but the three Yuan brothers couldn't help but feel anxious. The two of them closely protected Jiang Tangtang and knew more about the situation than most people.
They knew best how much cassava was brought from the islands.
We've only just distributed porridge once, and most of the cassava we brought has already been used up. Refugees are still flocking here after hearing the news, so how long can the food they brought last?
What to do after the food is eaten?
The key point is that Jiang Tangtang also said that he wanted to bring these people back to the island. With so many people and so many mouths to feed, what will they eat on the island?
Jiang Tangtang noticed their anxiety. She was also worried because there were more refugees than she had expected.
It seems that relying on her space alone is not enough. She also needs to open up trade routes and transfer food from outside.
She pursed her lips and said, "Yuan Si, you stay here to maintain order and explain the rules to them. If they understand the rules and are still willing to let us go, let them board boat number two first and have Luo Hao take them back to the island first. Yuan San, you take a team and follow me. We'll go find food."
There are not many useful boats on the island. They brought three boats this time. Judging from the current situation, these three boats cannot accommodate so many refugees, and they will have to make several more trips.
After making the arrangements, Jiang Tangtang took Yuan San and others away from the dock.
Jiang Tangtang first took his men back to Zhounan Village.
Because Lu Shiyan was guarding Yazhou, the Nanyue people were unable to invade and the crops in the fields were not destroyed.
However, the war caused panic among the people, and Jiang Tangtang's business was greatly affected.
Whether it was the cake shop or Yipinxiang, all income had been reduced by more than half. Although she had expected this, Jiang Tangtang still felt a little panicked.
She is now busy building the island, and there are too many places to spend money. Now that the income here has decreased, how can she maintain the expenses on the island?
Jiang Tangtang suppressed her anxiety and asked Haizi, "Where is the second boss?"
The Second Boss is what everyone calls Lu Shili.
Haizi said, "Second Boss went to the military camp to deliver food to the God of War. He will probably be back in the evening."
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Tangtang decided to go to the military camp first.
Firstly, he wanted to discuss with Lu Shili about opening up trade routes, and secondly, he wanted to meet Lu Shiyan.
So Jiang Tangtang didn't stay in Zhounan Village for half an hour before he hurried to the Three Passes.
