Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 151 Heavy Rain Raid
"Your Majesty!!"

King Yongning had just returned from the military camp, and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, his aide Chu Ji hurried over and saw that his face was red and he was panting. Just as King Yongning was about to ask him to box more often, he heard him say:
"Your Majesty, a salt mine was discovered over there in Zuixing!"

"What?" King Yongning was a little confused. The next second he opened his eyes and reacted: "Hurry and give me the letter from Zuixing!"

Chu Ji immediately handed the letter in his hand to King Yongning and waited quietly for King Yongning's reaction after reading it.

They were short of salt, there was no doubt about that.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t buy it from Jiangnan.

There is a salt mine in Tianyu Mansion, but the situation there is complicated and the terrain is not easy to navigate. It is a bit troublesome to get salt from there.

Now that Zuixing can discover a salt mine, even if the letter says it is deep in the mountains of Wuya Mountain, that is already very good.

It's just that they still remember what happened in Zuixing some time ago, and because they were also fighting a lot of battles near Luoling at that time.

Chu Ji stood aside and closed his eyes in thought, but ignored the change in King Yongning's eyes that suddenly tightened when he saw the content of the letter.

"By the way, Your Majesty, I see that the method of making salt mentioned in the letter belongs to a woman from the south of the Yangtze River. Do you think the other party is a salt merchant who learned this and that from the Wei family..."

"will not."

Before Chu Ji could finish speaking, he was interrupted by King Yongning.

"what?"

"She is not from Jiangnan, nor is she what you would call a salt merchant."

The moment he saw the familiar name again, King Yongning couldn't calm down for a while. He looked at Chu Ji who still didn't know what was going on. King Yongning only asked him to go down first and he wanted to stay alone for a while.

After Chu Ji left, King Yongning stood in silence for a long time before taking off his armor.

Inside the breastplate was a thin layer of underwear that was now soaked with sweat, faintly outlining the lines of strong muscles.

He looked down at the hideous scar on his chest, and the girl's instructions before leaving rang in his ears:

"These pancakes are super anti-hungry. I really don't have to eat anymore. And here's the flour I fried, with some ancestral secret medicine in it. If you are dying, eat them all, don't hesitate, Li Baizhou~"

···
"Isn't this house a little too small? If you put a bed and a table in it, it would be difficult for more people to turn around."

Deep in Wuya Mountain, after Wang He and others proposed building houses, the first batch of fifty, two side-by-side, small wooden houses have now been built.

Mei Qian and Wang He took everyone to visit here today. They heard someone say that this place is small, but Mei Qian and the others did not refute it. It is a fact that the house is small.

But Mei Qian and the others' initial requirements for this house were that it could sleep, be sheltered from wind and rain, be sturdy and take a short time to build.

The problem of eating is the canteen, and the problem of convenience is the public toilet. If these are removed, the remaining functions of the house are sleeping, shelter from wind and rain, defense, etc. It really does not need to be big.

If the house is built bigger, it will also involve the load-bearing of the house, the stress of the structure, and other physics knowledge that Mei Qian doesn't know much about.

Before building the house, Mei Qian and the others searched around but couldn't find any professionals in building houses among them.

So they settled for the next best thing and just asked for a house that met their quality standards and fit the purpose.

The room doesn’t need to be big, just practical.

Each house is a standard double room, which can accommodate up to four people at the same time. It’s only after Wei Wei calculated how many people there are now that he realizes where the project will be when it is completed.
Under Wang He's arrangement, the elderly, children and the weak were arranged first. There were no beds or tables inside for the time being. It was just an empty room. If it rained suddenly, everyone could go in and take shelter.

All furniture and fences in front of your home must wait until all planned houses are built before detailed planning begins.

"I've been looking at this house for a long time, and I want to move in."

After living in the cave for a long time, the humidity inside made Wang He go to bask in the sun every day, so now looking at this small wooden house, Wang He also had the idea of ​​​​moving in.

When Mei Qian heard this, she smiled and said, "When the house is completed, you can naturally choose a room to live in."

Mei Qian even thought about moving there. "I heard from Chang Ping that the prince has mobilized troops and plans to capture Zuixing again."

After arranging things for Wang's house, Mei Qian returned to Wang and returned to the cave. Hearing Mei Qian's news was definitely exciting.

Wang He's brows straightened out, and he took the opportunity to take a sip of hot tea and let out a comfortable sigh.

"Since the prince has plans to take this place back, we should fully cooperate with him." Wang He said, looking at Mei Qian and asking, "How is your salt doing?"

"Fortunately, due to manpower issues, the output is not as high as expected, but over time, we now have several hundred kilograms of salt."

She has already learned from Changping about the overall lack of salt here, and there are salt mines here. King Yongning must take it back.

But when to take it back is also a matter of time.

"The number of Xirong soldiers outside the mountain has increased to 100,000. I don't know if the number will continue to increase in the future. If there are more and more soldiers, it may not be feasible to fight head-on."

Chang'an has been responsible for collecting external intelligence recently, and the news brought back is not very good.

Mei Qian and Wang He are not military professionals, and they can only chat about this kind of problem.

Mei Qian learned this kind of war experience from "The Romance of Country X".

The key is that she hasn't finished reading it before.

Mei Qian felt regretful. If she had known that she would have read these books carefully, she might not be able to use them now.

Mei Qian sighed suddenly, Wang He asked what was wrong, Mei Qian shook her head and just said that she was feeling sleepy today and she had to go back to rest.

On the way back, the sky was clear and clear, but in the blink of an eye it was covered with dark clouds.

"Isn't it?"

As the dark clouds gathered, Mei Qian felt the strong wind again, and she didn't know what to say for a while.

In the morning, I took everyone to visit the newly built house. I mentioned that if it rained, everyone would try to hide in the house as much as possible. But it turned out that it was really going to rain this afternoon?

Just as she was thinking this, lightning flashed faintly in the rolling dark clouds above her head, and there was a muffled sound of thunder. Mei Qian immediately quickened her pace and went back. As soon as her front feet entered the cave, big rain flakes fell down on her back feet.

Mei Qian also helped Ling Jiao sweep back all the animal skin quilts and dried vegetables that had been drying outside in the morning.

"Oh, it's still a little damp."

The sky outside the cave was already extremely dark at the moment. Those who didn't know the time thought it was already dark.

Mei Qian and Watershed Jiao were warming themselves over a fire in the cave. By the light of the fire, Water chestnut looked at the dried wild vegetables in front of her with some distress.

Because Mei Qian would occasionally make some food for herself in the cave, and when Ling Jiao was helping in the cafeteria, the master chef would also bring back some wild vegetables for Ling Jiao so that they could make their own food.

"I don't know if the dried vegetables in the canteen will be taken back in time this time."

Seeing that he had dried wild vegetables in the sun, water chestnut would naturally think of the canteen.

"It'll probably get damp too."

Mei Qian saw Ling Jiao's expression of pity for the dried vegetables. The dried vegetables in the cafeteria were dried far more than they were at the entrance of the cave, so it was impossible for them not to get wet.

"Let's just eat this dried vegetable tonight." Mei Qian suggested and asked Watershed Jiao to take out the dried vegetable that was soaked by the rain and eat it. "It's not a pity."

After saying that, Mei Qian looked up at the dark sky outside the cave, a look of deep thought flashing in her eyes.

I don’t know if this heavy rain is good or bad...

Waiting for the keyboard, I will probably receive it tonight, woo woo woo, hurry up
