Chapter 284 Disaster relief

Yu Xiaocaili was upright: “The Emperor is for his mountains and mountains for many generations, and the King of Xiaoxian is for the successful completion of his work. What do you want me to say? Don't you want to earn more money to feed your family and keep them warm? More than a dozen acres of our land, not a single acre of grain. How expensive is the food now? Locusts in the ground are still in trouble. If we are to plant food, we must at least spring next year, and if we are to reap the harvest, we must next summer. For almost a year, we have to buy high-priced food. Even though we make some silver, it's not enough for the family to chew this year! ”

The Liu family thought that the town's coarse grain had risen to over a hundred languages, and the price was still rising one day at a time. The food accumulated at home will be good until autumn. These maize potatoes, although high in yield, do not have a single fraction of control and are all handed over to the court. After listening to the little girl's analysis, the family's heart became heavy and the sprayed potatoes didn't taste in her mouth.

Zhu Junyang looked at the people's beauty in his eyes. He ate a piece of potato from the red roast meat and slowly swallowed it. “That makes sense! But you missed a little! ”

“At what point?” After Yu Xiaograss shouted, he was comfortable and ate the sour and spicy potato silk in a large mouthful. In her previous life, this dish was her favorite and she was tired of eating it.

“You forgot Grandpa was here!” Zhu Junyang saw that she was delicious. She also stuck a chopstick in her mouth and continued, “Grandpa never treats his people badly! See those two cars in the yard? White rice. White rice! At least 2,000 pounds. Enough for a while, huh? ”

After listening to the rest of the family, more than 2,000 pounds of fine food! Based on 15 kilograms of food per person per month, the current size of the household adds up to 12 people, and nearly 200 kilograms of food per month. More than 2,000 pounds is enough for half a year!

“Xiaoxian Wang Weiwu!” Yu Xiaograss almost jumped up happy and took a bite in his face. But when I think of it, it's ancient, and if I do, it's horrible. Keep your head down!

Zhu Junyang looked at a little girl who looked like a dog's leg and hummed. “Grandpa is the Emperor's Minister of Disaster Relief. The court has allocated money for food and will soon distribute it among the state capitals. Grandpa has already investigated, Tang Ancient Town is a heavily affected area, should be followed closely by disaster relief in heavily affected areas. ”

Yu Xiaograss worried: “However, the capital city is also affected, how much grain can the treasury produce? ”

“That's not what you're worried about!” Zhu Junyang ate the sour and spicy potato silk again and fell in love with this sour and delicious flavor, "the fleet has sailed, the southern breeze has been smooth for almost two years, the grain is full. Disaster food will not fail! ”

The rest of the family listened, so they relaxed and thanked Dade, the emperor of the patriotic people, for his good words.

With more than a dozen free labor, the rest of the corn is rolled out in three days and packed in a uniform-sized sack. Ten acres of land, collecting nearly 18,000 kilos. In other words, the mu production averaged 1,800 kg.

You know, grain production is low today, and 500 kilograms a acre of wheat is very high. A thousand and eighty acres. What does that mean? For example, if you could feed two people from an acre of land, you could feed six or seven people from an acre of land now! With such a high-yielding crop, why are the people not hungry?

The Yu Xiaohua family negotiated and decided to sell the corn and potatoes at a good price. One kilogram of corn is a hundred words, 18,000 kilograms of corn Zhu Junyang received only 15,000 kilograms, leaving 3,000 kilograms for the rest of the family to make seeds and rations. In that case, the maize family alone earns 1,500 taels. For 200 taels a kilo of potatoes, 5,000 taels of potatoes is 1,000 taels.

Though for the rest of the family today, 2,500 taels of silver is far less than the one-year dividend of the remaining Little Grass House. But when you think about it, eleven acres of land actually earn more than 2,000 taels a year, which is definitely the first of the Da-Ming dynasties. Cough, except, of course, for the prematurely cooked watermelons in the rest of the family.

Now, in addition to the 2,000 kilos of fine grain brought in by the little county king, the rest of the family has 3,000 kilos of corn and 6,700 kilos of potatoes, plus the accumulated grain in the warehouse. Yu Xiaowei no longer had to worry about the silver in her hand and left her because she was buying expensive food.

Yujia's maize and potatoes were not affected by the disaster, and they still had a huge harvest, and yields were so high! Zhu Junyang couldn't sit down, grass arranged disaster relief, just pulled a few cars of corn and potatoes to the capital to invite kung fu!!

The food for the disaster arrived three days later in the capital city of Zimbabwe. Knowing that the Minister of Disaster Relief, Yangxian Wang, is in Tang Gu Town, nature first transported food to Tang Gu Town. Five days later, a truckload of relief food arrived in the county of Tang Gu Town.

The county ordered Lord Zhao to also come from poor people and deeply understand what natural disasters mean for the people. He cooperated continuously with officials sent by the King of Yangshen to distribute food for disaster relief to every village, especially the four most affected villages, where the proportion of food was greater. Dongshan Village is one of them.

On that day, the bronze bell in Dongshan Village rang again. The villagers gathered in the open space in front of the village chief's house, sweeping past dullness, everyone rejoiced.

Zhao County ordered to personally sit on the distribution of grain in Zhen Dongshan Village. The other day, the Minister of Disaster Relief, the King of Yangshan County, went to Dongshan Village every day to investigate the disaster on the ground. Yangxian Wang attached great importance to the Yujia family in Dongshan Village. Zhao County's orders did not know? The disaster relief in Dongshan Village has been arranged properly, even if his work is half done!

The smile on the village chief's face never stopped. He shouted to the villagers: “Your Majesty, take care of the people of the affected area, bring us the food for disaster relief, solve our urgent eyebrow burning. Your Majesty loves a good emperor like a son! Long live Your Majesty! ”

He knelt down in the direction of the capital and seriously kowtowed three heads. The villagers also followed the village chief, wholeheartedly kowtowing his head and shouting: “Long live Your Majesty! ”

The village chief trembled and watched the villagers continue: “The first batch of food for disaster relief has arrived. After Lord Zhao of Qingtian, combined with the Jingli disaster relief officials, food is distributed according to the head of the people. Adults share 15 kg of food per person and children 10 kg of food per person. Half-sized eats me down. Adults over the age of 13! ”

The villagers hailed from time to time. Fifteen pounds of grain each, if you save it, you can eat it for two months! If you buy it in town now, you can't buy 15 pounds without two or three taels of silver! Although the villagers of Dongshan Village have some savings in their hands for almost two years, they can't afford such a high price food torment!

The village chief asked Zhao County's order: "Sir Zhao, do you have anything else to say? ”

Zhao County ordered him to stand up, his eyes like a torch swept around the villagers, and the original whispering quickly calmed down. Zhao County said to his satisfaction: "Villagers! Difficulties are only temporary, disaster will eventually pass! The court attached great importance to disaster relief, and sent King Yangxian as Minister of Chin Dynasty to oversee disaster relief! Villagers don't have to worry, the Yangshen King's flotilla in the West has gone to the South to buy food. King Yangshen said that the food bought will be sold to the people at the price of this money, and they will not earn a copper plate from it! Stick around for two more months, and in two months, the cheaper food will be on the market, and the traitors who raise food prices for profit will not last long! ”

The villagers heard it and shouted a thunderous cheer. The prestige of King Yangshen reached an unprecedented height in Dongshan Village.

The mayor was also extremely excited in his heart, but he endured the inner turmoil and appeased the feelings of the villagers: “Villagers, we are a good emperor, good officials! Next, line up for food! Don't fight, don't rob, everyone has it! Seniors and children, adults! Everybody go home and get the guy! ”

The villagers were scattered and the rest of the family was mixed in. Originally, according to Yuhai, they did not want to receive the food for this disaster. But I'm afraid it's too eye-catching for some people to remember! Adults can only guarantee not to starve to death if they stick to food for two months. If they want to eat hungry, it is impossible!

If the rest of the family doesn't go to collect food, tell the villagers, "I have food in my hand." Then the East family will borrow a few kilos, the West family will borrow a few kilos, the townspeople, who do you say to lend it to? More than 30 households in Dongshan Village can't borrow enough food!

After this analysis, the rest of the family decided to keep a low profile and went home to pick up the basket pocket and return to the empty space in front of the village chief's house. By now, the distribution of food has begun, and the two teams have twisted out of the elders!

Yu Xiaoxue, the twin sisters, with his younger brother, Little Rock, Liu Yan 'er led his younger brother, Liu Fangping, under the leadership of the old, in the ranks of the elderly and children. Yuhang hesitated. He was 13 years old. In fact, his twelfth birthday hasn't passed. If he were in the adult team, would anyone say anything? Measured for a moment, he came behind his little sister and joined the children's camp.

The villagers next door saw each other and couldn't bear to praise: “The Haijians really teach children, Xiaosha (Yuhang's nickname) is a good and honest child! ”

There was also disagreement, the man put his mouth aside and said: "They're starving to death. Why do you care about honesty and dishonesty? Five kilos less for one person! Five pounds of grain is enough for a family to eat for a few days! ”

The others were silent. In the face of natural disasters, nothing is important to save lives.

Those who distribute food are the Yamen, with an apparatus in their hand called "Dou". Once it is inserted into the grain truck, it is taken out to wipe the tip of the top with a plate. A fight is fifteen kilos. The elderly and the children made a smaller battle, which was ten pounds. In this way, the speed at which food is distributed is greatly increased when one person struggles.
