Five-year-old cute baby: traveled back to ancient times and became a grandmother

Chapter 425 How could it be such a coincidence
Zhang Zhouhua listened to Bai Youli's series of babble, his expression confused and shocked. His eyes widened and his jaw dropped in shock. This?
Bai Youyi looked at his expression and stopped and asked, "Don't you understand?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhang Zhouhua nodded hurriedly, as if he didn't understand but felt it was very powerful.

He was full of questions.

What is electricity?
What is a battery?
What is a player?
What is a tape?
Is the trumpet you are referring to the morning glory?
Bai Youyi expressed his opinion, patted Zhang Zhouhua's shoulder comfortingly, and said: "There are many profound things in this. You have never learned anything, so it's normal that you don't understand it."

He thought to himself, it’s right that you don’t understand. We in Taohua Village have learned a lot of culture and knowledge. If you understand everything I say, then you are a genius.

After hearing this, Zhang Zhouhua smiled awkwardly and said, "I am ignorant."

He was full of expectation, thinking that Bai Youyi would explain it in detail, even if it was just to pick a few things to talk about. Unexpectedly, Bai Youyi stopped talking about this matter.

Zhang Zhouhua opened his mouth several times to ask, but didn't know where to start, so he had to give up in disappointment.

Taohua Village is really amazing!
If Zhang Zhouhua hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it no matter what others said.

Bai Yiyou told Zhang Zhouhua about high-yield grains, and sighed, "Our aunt is the kindest. She can't bear to see the people suffer."

"But You County has nothing to do with our Taohua Village, so we can't interfere too much."

As he spoke, Bai Youyi also specifically recounted the treatment of the residents of Junji Town, which made Zhang Zhouhua feel jealous.

Taxes are collected everywhere, but in Junji Town, tax is truly taken from the people and used for the people.

Roads will be repaired, hospitals, charity halls and schools will be set up, and there will also be assistance policies for poor people.

For example, if you borrow money to run a small stall or business, the low interest rate is almost the same as borrowing money for free.

Bai Youyi: "We have contract farming. Farmers sign contracts with us to plant or raise what we specify. When the harvest is ready, we will take it back."

"In this way, ordinary people will not have to worry about sales, and with income, their lives will naturally be better."

As he spoke, Bai Youyi picked up a watermelon and explained with a smile, "Do you see this watermelon? This is a large green-skinned watermelon produced in Junji Town. It weighs more than 20 to 30 kilograms. I can earn at least 20 to 30 cents for each one."

Zhang Zhouhua was surprised: "Can you earn so much?"

Although twenty or thirty cents is not a lot of money, he knows that this big green-skinned melon is one of the high-yield crops. As Bai Youyi said just now, it is an economic crop.

Since the yield is high, there must be a lot of fruit per mu. One fruit can earn you 20 or 30 coins. So can a hundred or a thousand...

Bai Youyi nodded and said, "But only people in Junji Town can grow green melons now. Other places cannot grow them."

"Of course, there are many such cases. You are not from Junji Town, so it is useless to tell you."

Although he said so, Bai Yi still revealed some information from time to time when Zhang Zhouhua was asking around.

Zhang Zhouhua was even more excited after hearing this. It would be great if You County was also under the jurisdiction of Taohua Village like Junji Town.

Thinking of Qiguo's attitude and the current miserable situation in You County, Zhang Zhouhua felt both angry and helpless.

Although Taohua Village is powerful, there is no reason for it to make a fuss over You County and Qi State. After all, there is nothing in You County worthy of Taohua Village.

This is Lu Xiaohao.

The news of the locust plague finally reached Lu Xiaohao after a long delay.

"Master, there has been a locust plague in Ancheng and You County for several days."

When Yang Song reported the news to Lu Xiaohao, the group was already halfway there. Lu Xiaohao was surprised: "When did this happen?"

Locust plague is an extremely troublesome thing.

According to historical records, a locust plague occurred in a place.

Then no one can escape within a radius of a hundred miles, or even a thousand miles.

There were several records of locust plagues in the history of Jin State. The largest one left hundreds of thousands of people homeless, and countless people starved to death due to the locust plague.

Lu Xiaohao was surprised and his expression became serious: "Is the news true?"

In fact, his question was a bit redundant. The news would definitely be confirmed before being delivered to him.

Yang Song didn't say anything, but just nodded solemnly.

Lu Xiaohao suppressed the grief in his heart and asked, "What's the situation?"

Yang Song: "Master, the news is that the locusts are coming with great force this time, and I'm afraid they will sweep across many places..."

Although there is currently a locust plague in Ancheng and You County, this thing, like an epidemic, will spread quickly, even faster than an epidemic.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

The destructive power of locusts is extremely alarming. Even if they haven't seen it, they can imagine the damage the locusts will cause.

“Is it God’s will to destroy our Lu family?” Lu Xiaohao’s heart sank, but the next second, he suddenly said excitedly: “There is still hope, there is still hope, we have high-yield grain varieties, as long as…”

He couldn't continue speaking. Even if the whole country planted high-yield grain varieties, it would still take a long time to harvest.

If people don't have food, they will starve to death soon.

Of course Yang Song had thought of this too. His face was dark and his hands were clenched tightly. He had experienced the feeling of hunger and knew even better what it felt like to be starving to death.

Lu Xiaohao quickly perked up and ordered in a deep voice: "Call the grain merchants to buy grain. Buy as much as you can. Make sure the people affected by the locust plague have rice to eat..."

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaohao suddenly paused, because he remembered that the largest grain merchant now seemed to be the Baijiabao Caravan.

The Baijiabao Caravan is not only the largest grain merchant, but also the medicine merchant. Or it should be said that in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, the Baijiabao Caravan says that it is second and no one dares to claim to be first.

In terms of transportation, the speed of the escort agency under the Baijiabao caravan is unmatched.

When a disaster occurs, what is most lacking is time, and what is most needed is also time.

"You just said, where did the locusts start to appear?"

Yang Song: "My Lord, it is Ancheng and You County."

Lu Xiaohao froze. He seemed to have said in his previous letter that You County and Ancheng should be given to Taohua Village? !
Seeing his master stunned, Yang Song also thought of the problem. He said uncertainly: "Master, do you think the people in Taohua Village will think that you are..." doing it on purpose?

Although Yang Song did not say the following words, Lu Xiaohao knew it.

Lu Xiaohao immediately said, "Quickly get some pen and ink."

He needs to write a letter to Taohua Village to explain.

If Taohua Village thinks he did it on purpose, then the purchase of grain may be hindered, and even if the supplies are purchased, they cannot be delivered to the disaster-stricken areas in time.

As Lu Xiaohao wrote quickly, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "How could this be such a coincidence?"
