After the exile, the Goddess of War became a group favorite

Chapter 92 Famine (Temporary Record)

Not far from the weighing, Yan Qingyao, Chu Yiheng, the Lu family, the Bian family, Hou Tianyi and others were all standing there waiting for the result of the measurement. Only Lu Anran was sitting on a stone alone, and the whole person was very nervous. is boring.

The people of the Lu family were very nervous at this time, what if the yield of one mu of land was less than twenty shi?Their family has issued a military order, if it is really not enough, then...then their family will be buried with them?

Therefore, they are both scared and nervous, not afraid of the eventuality, but [-]!
They were nervous, but Lu Anran sat on the rock like an outsider, and the golden monkey Monkey King stood behind her, looking for lice all over her head.

"It came out." Half an hour later, the accountant calculated the result, and then hurriedly ran to Yan Qingyao, and said with a smile: "General, a total of four acres of land has been collected now, with a maximum yield of 46 shi and a minimum of 25 shi. stones, on average 38 stones."

38 stone!

Hou Tianyi's pupils suddenly shrank like needles, and a cold glow was fleeting in his eyes.

Yan Qingyao and Xing Yijiang's expressions remained unchanged, but when they looked at each other, they saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.

"General, the yield of this potato is more than ten times higher than that of other crops. If it is widely planted, our Daxia Dynasty will no longer suffer from starvation.

And now I don't know if this potato can be improved. If it can, maybe it can be doubled again. "

Hearing this, Yan Qingyao finally felt a little more relaxed, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "The people of Daxia are finally saved." His gaze gradually shifted to Lu Anran, and then slowly said: "I thank you for them."

These words made the people present a little confused. Therefore, Yan Qingyao saw the doubts of the people present, and then said: "There is a famine in the north."

famine! ! !

The faces of everyone present changed suddenly!
The famine ten years ago is still vivid, and they can't even bear to recall it.

At that time, under the scorching sun, the long-drought and rainless Central Plains were dead and silent, without greenery, the trees were bare, the leaves had been plucked, and the bark had been stripped clean.

Skeleton-like corpses lay across the roadside, with no muscles and bones as brittle as eggshells.

A girl who suffers from famine and lacks food and clothing is half-naked and loaded onto a cattle cart and transported to a brothel somewhere.

The corpses on the side of the road were all skinny, and those with a little bit of flesh were devoured immediately.

Before the famine, all children were beautiful in their health; when they were healthy their hair had a beautiful natural oily sheen, and their eyes shone like almonds.

But when the famine came, they were so thin that where the eyes should be, they were full of pus; the lack of nutrition made their hair dry; the hunger made their stomachs swell; Skin.

Their voice has degraded into the sorrow of food, calling ~ Huh ~ like the sound of rusty pumping fans.

Sometimes they saw an overturned cemetery, scattered with bones and broken pieces of cloth.Apparently a starving refugee was hastily buried here,

However, I understand everything in my heart, what is life and death for anything that can be eaten?
Even Lu Anran, who came from the end of the world, felt a chill in his heart.

Based on this estimate, it is estimated that more than 2 million people starved to death in the Republic of China era.

However, due to reasons such as the lamentable control of the people over the grassroots and the chaos of war, this statement cannot be verified.

It will probably never be known how many Chinese people died of famine during the Republic of China. The only clear data is that the average life expectancy of flower growers before liberation was only 35 years old.

At the age of 35, in the 22nd century, you may not even have a family, let alone die.

In the last days, due to the survival of the fittest and the awakening of abilities, the average life expectancy of the living has reached 200 years, and the minimum is 98 years old. This shows how terrible the consequences of famine are for human beings.

Thinking of this, Lu Anran's face became a little more solemn, and suddenly, she thought of the child who was rescued in exile but was snatched away by her mother, she forgot what it was called, and only remembered that the child's mother was Yuan Niang.

"..." Lu Anran fell silent for an instant.

Most of the people present were silent, and the reasons for the silence were various, but they were all related to the famine.

"Miss Lu, tell me the number. I bought all your potatoes from you on behalf of the imperial court." Yan Qingyao took a deep breath, walked slowly in front of her with his right hand behind his back and said.

Lu Anran raised her eyebrows: "The amount of ten acres of land cannot be more."

"Miss Lu!"

"I don't want money, it's a donation."

As soon as these words came out, Yan Qingyao blocked what Yan Qingyao wanted to say in an instant. Finally, he took a deep look at her and nodded: "Thank you Miss Lu, the imperial decree will arrive here in five days at most, and Licheng will also arrive here." It will be handed over to you, I wonder what Miss Lu's plan is?"

"Plan?" Lu Anran smiled suddenly: "I don't know that Licheng will definitely give it to me, so I don't have any plans."

"Licheng is not a trivial matter, I hope Miss Lu will make a plan early." Behind Yan Qingyao, Xing Yijiang smiled warmly, and the feather fan in his hand was shaking slightly.

Lu Anran smiled lightly, "After the imperial decree arrives, there is still half a month to prepare, don't rush, work slowly and meticulously, let alone a city."

"In that case, let me first wish Miss Lu a successful start." Xing Yijiang nodded with a smile, like an old fox.

Lu Anran didn't take this to heart, but just looked at Yan Qingyao: "General, if you want to plant, you can start breeding now. Ask my uncle about the specific planting. He knows it well. If you use it for disaster relief, you can treat it as me. Did not say."

Yan Qingyao smiled faintly at her, "Thank you Miss Lu."

Gao Lin stepped forward and cupped his hands: "Miss Lu, please ask Uncle Lu to come with me and give me some pointers on planting."

"Okay, dad, you and uncle go there."

Lu Wen was also taken aback, why is there him?Could this girl be revenge for him talking about her in the morning?
Lu Changqing chuckled, and said openly: "Okay, then we will bother General Yan."

"Please." Gao Lin stretched out his hand, indicating the direction.

"My lord, do you really want Uncle Lu to go with the King of Qin?" Tian Yi hurriedly said with internal force.
