After bandaging the wound, the wolf still did not wake up. Kang Yueran bought a syringe from the mall, sucked up spiritual spring water and injected it into the wolf's mouth. Most of the spiritual spring water flowed out, but she was not discouraged and continued to inject.
The wolves drank the spiritual spring water and slowly opened their eyes. They recognized Kang Yueran.
Kang Yueran patted their heads and said, "This is my territory. Baihu will take care of you. You just stay here and recuperate."
The white tiger translated it for the wolves and comforted them with a few words.
The wolf didn't struggle, which meant he agreed.
After coming out of the space, she fed each wolf with spiritual spring water.
There were a total of 139 wolves in Qingping Mountain, 77 of whom died and 12 were injured. This result made Kang Yueran very sad. Apart from feeding the wolves spiritual spring water three times a day, she refused to talk to anyone.
She was depressed for three days. After three days, she took a shower, changed her clothes, and went to Anzhou City alone.
A porridge stall had been set up outside the city gate, with soldiers maintaining order and the victims lining up to receive the porridge.
There were still yamen runners checking people at the city gate, but you didn't need to pay any money to enter.
After entering the city, Kang Yueran went straight to the county government office to find Guo Tong. Guo Tong was reporting to Chai Shijing on the disaster relief situation over the past three days.
Upon hearing that Kang Yueran came to buy land, the clerk led her to a meeting room to wait.
Yiming was slightly stunned when he saw Kang Yueran. After asking the clerk, he found out that she was looking for Guo Tong to buy land. He hurried back and whispered to Chai Shijing.
After listening to Guo Tong's report, Chai Shijing gave a few more instructions before saying, "A young lady named Kang has come to Lord Guo to buy land. Yiming, please invite her in."
Three days ago, what happened on Qingping Mountain had already spread everywhere.
The news of Liao Changsheng colluding with the Tiger Gang was also widely circulated, but the government office had not yet made a clear judgment.
Guo Tong was anxious but did not dare to refuse. How could this big boss dare to come to the yamen at this time?
Kang Yueran was invited in and first saw Chai Shijing sitting in the main seat.
She was stunned for a moment, and felt that she should bow, but her bow was not standard for women, and after being laughed at by Hu Dacheng, she refused to do it again.
She bent slightly and performed a man's bow, "Sir, Sir Guo!" She knew that Chai Shijing was a prince, but the day was so chaotic that she couldn't remember what his title was.
Guo Tong introduced: "This is the head of Qingping Mountain, surnamed Kang; this is His Royal Highness Prince Ping."
Kang Yueran bowed again, "Long live His Royal Highness Prince Ping!"
Chai Shijing smiled and said, "I heard you are here to buy land?"
It was awkward for a little girl like her to always perform male rituals, but at the same time, he found it very fresh.
"Qingping Mountain is adjacent to the Haihe River to the west. I want to buy the land along the Haihe River to build a dock and warehouse."
I've heard of buying farmland, residential land, and mountain land, but this is the first time I've heard of someone buying riverside land. Guo Tong looked at Chai Shijing and said, "Riverside land has never been sold before, and building a wharf requires approval from the government office; it can't be built privately."
Kang Yueran said, "Buying land and building a wharf will require manpower. There are more than 2,000 disaster victims near Kaoshan Village. I can hire these people to continue working and provide them with food and monthly wages."
Guo Tong explained on Kang Yueran's behalf, "The Kang family bought residential land and farmland in Kaoshan Village, hired disaster victims to build houses, and reclaimed land to grow crops, so that many disaster victims could have food to eat."
Kang Yueran added, "That piece of land is very large, and the dock can be built bigger to accommodate more ships. Once the dock is built, it will require a lot of work. The court can provide temporary relief, but in the end, the people will have to be self-reliant."
Chai Shijing said, "Once I have collected the relief money, the victims must return home as soon as possible to plant crops for the next season. We cannot allow them to stay outside the city gates for too long."
Kang Yueran glanced at Guo Tongyi and said, "Hasn't Anzhou ever had a flood before? Don't you know that all the soil suitable for farming on the fields has been washed away by the flood? If we plant crops this year, the harvest will only be 20% to 30% of the previous harvest. It will take at least three to five years for the fields to recover."
Chai Shijing tensed up, looked at Guo Tong and asked, "Are you serious?" Two or three out of ten? He couldn't even pay the taxes to the court.
"Twenty years ago, Anzhou also suffered a flood. As Miss Kang said, the yield dropped sharply. Plowing the land twice more may improve things a little."
Seeing Kang Yueran looking confident, Chai Shijing asked, "Miss Kang, what good ideas do you have? Why not tell me about them?"
"The fields were plowed deep, sprinkled with lime powder, plowed again, sprinkled with wood ash, and plowed again before planting the crops. At this point, the yield per mu could reach 40% to 50% of the original yield, which was excellent.
However, if the grain yield per mu can reach 2,000 kilograms, then 40% to 50% of it will be enough to fill the stomachs of the people."
Guo Tongyi's face was filled with disbelief. "Two thousand kilograms? How can the grain yield per mu be two thousand kilograms?"
"You don't have it, but I do! Sell me the land and allow me to build a dock. Next year, after the winter wheat is harvested, the people living nearby can go to Qingping Mountain to get the rice seedlings and take them home to farm."
The wolf pack suffered heavy casualties, and Kang Yueran regretted it very much afterwards. The materials and design of the long-range crossbow were too advanced, far beyond what could be made in this era. She was afraid of arousing suspicion so she only dared to use it herself.
But if we leave two more people behind and all three of them shoot arrows at the same time, those people may not even be able to reach the gate.
Risking being discovered or choosing to live with the wolves, she thought that if she were given the choice again, she would choose the latter.
Chai Shijing gave a knowing smile. He understood the intentions of the Kang family boss. "What kind of food is it? You should explain it clearly."
For disaster victims and ordinary people, nothing can win their favor better than feeding them.
Therefore, Kang Yueran wanted to build a wharf, and she wanted the disaster victims to continue to owe her a debt of gratitude. Asking the people to go to Qingping Mountain to collect the rice seedlings was to tell the people that the rice seedlings came from Qingping Mountain, from her, the big boss.
From now on, she let the people adapt to the changes in Qingping Mountain little by little. Once they had food in their mouths, they would no longer reject Qingping Mountain in their hearts.
This boss is a smart man!
Kang Yueran didn't hide it either. "The food is called sweet potato. It's planted in mid-March and matures in four months. Sweet potato is simple to grow, very easy to grow, and can be widely planted."
When ripe, the sweet potato vines above ground can be fed to pigs. The sweet potatoes grow underground. After digging them out and washing them, they can be eaten raw or cooked. You can also cut some and add them to the porridge.
Guo Tong perked up. "So, according to you, this is a good thing. Miss Kang, where did you get it?"
Kang Yueran smiled and said, "I was guided by an immortal in my dream and found it in the depths of Qingping Mountain." The first sentence was a bit exaggerated, but basically no one has ever been to the depths of Qingping Mountain, so this reason makes sense.
Guo Tong opened his mouth wide, "Is this true?"
Chai Shijing chuckled and glanced at Kang Yueran, "Miss Kang is a blessed person!"
"I am naturally a blessed person as I can get guidance from the immortal!" Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway.
