Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 212 212 Cooperation with Wuzhen

Wu Zhen revealed the current situation in Huangsha City, and said that as long as she provided enough food, he would be able to give her the rights he had promised her in less than a month.

He stared at her closely, not daring to miss even a trace of her reaction, but to his disappointment, after hearing this, she always looked thoughtful, showing no tendency to like her.

After a long time, Mu Yu finally spoke.

"You mean, as long as you have enough food, you can get everything done in a few days."

"Yes."

"Please tell me the current situation in Huangsha City carefully."

Wu Zhen thought to himself, does she not believe what I said?
Mu Yu thought for a while, "Forget it, let me ask, you tell me. How many people are there in Huangsha City now?"

"About nearly a thousand people, originally there were only a few hundred. Recently, many victims of disasters appeared near Huangsha City. We put some of them in, and many of them wandered outside the city. The main reason is that there is no food and we cannot afford so many people. People, don’t dare to put them in.”

1000 people, this scale is not too big, and the current resident population of Yuanshan Town is about the same.

"How many victims are there outside?"

"I haven't counted them in detail. Anyway, there are hundreds, and there are still people coming intermittently."

Let’s count it as two thousand. According to general standards, the food for 2000 people for three months would be more than [-] catties.Transfer [-] jin of grain from the village and support it for a month as an emergency. During this month, just buy another [-] jin of grain from other places.

"You are the only one in Huangsha City now, right?"

"Yes."

"They can hear what you say in this force, right?"

"I listened."

"Then what is the situation of those people you said will take a few days to win?"

"In the past, there were a few big and small forces. The big ones were crippled by us and surrendered, and the small ones became our vassals. There were also those who were self-confident and disdainful of our company. As long as they didn't confront us, they had no ability to resist us. , we didn't kill them all, anyway, they can't make any waves.

Our problem is mainly the problem of food. Our food is only enough for soldiers to eat, and it is good for others to have a bite.

Of course, this situation can't last long, and even if there are no outsiders, accidents will happen after a long time.Most people have no loyalty at all, whoever gives food, whoever speaks counts, and they listen to whoever they say.

Recently, the rebel army was mauled and fled by the prince's army. Apart from the victims of the disaster, there were also some speculative businessmen wandering around in the vicinity of Huangsha City, wanting to invest in a certain force to make a profit after stabilization. "

This is also what Mu Yu is doing.

"Didn't these merchants find you?"

"I've looked for it, but they are all too pushy and arrogant. Rather than let such a person succeed, I would rather give everything to you."

"I don't want everything."

"I know."

"These are the threats you're talking about?"

"Yes, those idiots who are still dreaming of giving it a go will collude with these greedy businessmen. Even if they can't change the situation, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble. Naturally, I have to solve these troubles."

Mu Yu fell into deep thought again, and after a while, she said, "I can provide you with food."

Wu Zhen was overjoyed.

"There is not much food in the village, so let's take out [-] catties for emergency, and I will send someone to Bazhou to buy a batch, and it can be transported to Huangsha City in a month."

When Wu Zhen heard the [-] jin, his heart was completely relieved.

Thirty thousand catties is enough for them to eat for more than a month. With the food in the city as a base, it will be no problem to last for two months. By then, the food planted in the spring will be harvested, and it will last for a while. One month is enough for them to settle everything in Huangsha City.

Not to mention, she also said that she was going to Bazhou to buy a batch. This batch must not be less than [-] catties, right?

Sure enough, he was right, she was very generous, much better than those businessmen who were so penny-pinching.

"Thank you for your generosity."

Wu Zhen solemnly saluted Mu Yu.

Mu Yu hastened to help him up, since he will be the ruler of Huangsha City from now on, this ceremony is not acceptable.

"How many people have you come this time? Can you take the [-] catties of grain with you?"

"We brought two donkey carts. We can replace donkeys with horses. It's no problem to take away [-] catties of grain..."

Wu Zhen paused. When he came here, he thought that it would be [-] catties at most, and [-] catties was barely enough. At that time, he didn't dare to think more.

He didn't dare to think about it, and the others naturally didn't dare to think about it. After all, those merchants almost took away all their power, and they were only willing to give out [-] catties of grain. The merchants felt that [-] catties was more than enough.

[-] catties is indeed enough, but [-] catties is more likely to be successful, and it can better calm people's hearts and make him feel more at ease to do things without any worries.

Mu Yu saw his embarrassment and took the initiative to say, "Don't worry, I have three carts for hauling goods this time, and there are two spare carts in the manor. It's no problem to bring [-] catties of grain back. Since you said Huangsha City It’s so safe, then I’ll just take someone to go with you.”

Wu Zhen wanted to say that it was not safe there, but after another thought, it seemed that there was nothing unsafe.

Beidi has not been around Huangsha City for a long time, which is natural, because there is nothing worth grabbing near Huangsha City, and they probably went to harass other countries.

The rebels had been maimed by the prince's army, and they were fleeing everywhere. Not long before they came, they had captured a group of dozens of people, so they had a clear idea of ​​the situation of the rebels.

There was no threat to the victims. When they arrived near Huangsha City, they would naturally send out a signal to let the people in the city come out to help them. With food, it would not be a problem to take these people back for their own use.

Looking at it this way, where is it not safe?

There are twenty people in their group, and there are more than a dozen or twenty guards around her. There are few forces in the vicinity that can threaten them.

"It's fine if you want."

Mu Yu heard that his word you was weird, as if she had been like this since she said she would give him [-] catties of grain, and knew that this was his expression of gratitude, but it was really inappropriate.

"You are like everyone else, just call me Mu girl."

"Wooden girl."

The cooperation between the two has been finalized, and the communication has completely ended here.

Mu Yu thought for a while and said, "That's how it is. I'll order people to bring the food down, get the chariots and horses ready, and wait a few days for you to rest for a while..."

"It won't take a few days, we can start tomorrow."

Seeing the firmness in Wu Zhen's eyes, Mu Yu knew that this matter must be urgent, so he didn't force it, just said,
"Then you bring the other people who came with you to the manor. It's fine to just rest for a day. You should let them eat something good."

This time, Wu Zhen agreed.
