Chapter 1095
This new year is extremely cold, it can be said that it is a rare cold in 50 years. On the day of the Lantern Festival, it snowed heavily, and the snow was almost as thick as a person's knee.

Xiao'er received Jing Rui's letter today and smiled: "Brother Shangguan, most of the poor people in Xuwen County of Nangong Kingdom don't need to worry too much."

After Xiao'er finished speaking, she handed the letter to Shangguan Xuanyi to read.

Shangguan Xuanyi glanced at ten lines and couldn't help but praise: "Jingrui's idea is good!"

"No, it can be said that this has won the hearts of some people in Xuwen County. Even if we can't get help from attacking Xuwen County, at least the resistance will be reduced a lot."

Shangguan Xuanyi nodded, Jingrui really made good use of the right time, place and people!However, they can also take this opportunity to add fuel to the fire: "We might as well seize this opportunity and find someone to sigh in front of the people of Nangong Kingdom how good it is to be a citizen of Minze Kingdom."

"That's right, when the people of Minze Kingdom have enough food, clothing, warmth and surplus food, these days are getting more and more hopeful! The people of Nangong Kingdom know how can they not be envious? I have heard these words too much. The first time I go hungry and suffer cold, I wish I could be a citizen of Minze Kingdom."

The contrast between the people of the two countries is so obvious that any fool would know how to choose!
Shangguan Xuanyi nodded, walked to the desk, took out a piece of letter paper, and began to reply to Jingrui.

Speaking of which, what did Jingrui do that made the two of them full of praise?
Because the weather this year is extremely cold, although Nangong Kingdom is located in the south, it also experienced the coldest weather in history. Many people died of freezing in various places years ago.

And Jingrui carried forward the good deeds of the imperial court when he was in the imperial capital. When the weather started to freeze in Nanyue Prefecture, he set up a shed to give out porridge and called on some gentry to donate some old clothes and quilts they didn't want to give some poor people to keep out the cold.

Therefore, throughout the winter, the number of people who froze to death in South Vietnam was extremely small.

The spread of such good news to the other side of the border made the people of Nangong Kingdom envious.

After Jingrui received the secret letter from Xiao'er, he knew that the court would go to war against Nangong Kingdom after a year.

When the weather was the coldest, he deliberately arranged for a steward to serve porridge at the nearest junction between Nangong Kingdom and Minze Kingdom. To those who don't know, he is a wealthy businessman.

In his own name, under the slogan of imitating the benevolent deeds of the imperial court, the wealthy businessman set up a shed to give porridge every day. Ignoring so much, they all gathered together and made small bamboo rafts to sneak across the river and came to the soup kitchen to receive the porridge, but the soup kitchen staff turned a blind eye to this.

Later, more and more impoverished people in Nangong Kingdom knew about it, and they all sneaked over to get porridge. This sneakiness was for the government of Nangong Kingdom, and for the wealthy businessmen of Minze Kingdom. He also said that no matter the border, everyone is Neighbors do not want to see their parents starving to death!

Some people from Nangong Kingdom were so poor that they couldn’t open their nests. They didn’t even go back to Nangong Kingdom. They found a ruined temple to live in, planning to go back when there was no porridge left.

Jing Rui's move seems to be nothing, but at the critical moment, it can achieve the purpose of winning people's hearts.

The imperial court attacked the Nangong Kingdom and allowed the people who did not resist to escape, but when their homes were invaded, many people would pick up their hoes and rebel. It would only hurt both sides, but with this kind of porridge, some people's minds will change up.

The people actually don't care who is the emperor, as long as they can live a good life.

With the kindness of a porridge and the words of the people of Min Zeguo as a foreshadowing, when the time comes to attack Xu Wenwen, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort!
After Shangguan Xuanyi finished writing the letter, he flew the pigeon overnight and sent it out.

After the new year was over, Shangguan Xuanjun secretly led [-] elite soldiers to disperse several routes to Yier Island.

The night before Shangguan Xuanjun left, Shangguan Xuanyi came to Prince Qi's mansion and gave him a key.

"Is there something good for me here?" Shangguan Xuanjun took the key, threw it up, and caught it again.

"food."

Shangguan Xuanjun stopped throwing the key: "How much?"

He estimated that it would take seven or eight years to conquer the entire Nangong Kingdom. What he was most worried about was that there would be another few years of natural disasters in the future. After all, there had been no major natural disasters in Minze Kingdom for several years, and there were too many unknowns in ten years. up.

Situations like natural disasters cannot be controlled by manpower. If there is no food for the soldiers and nothing to eat, wouldn't that be defeat without a fight?

"The two granaries store 100 million grains. That is the grain stored in the grain cellar. I have people seal it up very well. The rice in it can be sealed for at least five years, and the millet can be sealed for nine years. These grains are used for emergencies. If there is no accident, the food provided by the court is definitely enough."

What Shangguan Xuanyi gave were only two keys to the grain cellars in the south near Yi'er Island, and the grains inside were all taken out of Xiao'er's previous space.

At that time, Shangguan Xuanyi built more than a dozen grain cellars in various places in order to preserve the grain in Xiaoer's space, storing tens of millions of catties of grain.

Those grain cellars were specially dug by Shangguan Xuanyi later, and they were very particular. After the pits were dug, they were first dried with fire, and then a thick layer of plant ash was spread on the bottom of the cellar, and wooden planks were spread on top of them. Go up and lay a mat, put chaff on the mat, and then lay another layer of mat, and the walls of the cellar are also treated in the same way. This method of "matting chaff" can keep the grain cellar moisture-proof and heat-proof, just like a huge thermos.

Of course, the storage of grain needs to be carried out in winter, so that the effect of low-temperature grain storage can be achieved.

This kind of grain cellar is not only anti-rat, anti-theft, moisture-proof and fire-proof, but also has a good fresh-keeping function. The grain is not easy to heat up, germinate and rot.

Generally, the imperial court uses this kind of grain cellar to store grain!

"100 million is so much? It's great!" Then he would have no worries and just go forward!
After Shangguan Xuanjun left, Zhu Yan's stomach suddenly moved that day, because she had been paying attention to proper exercise during her pregnancy, so she started to have a stomachache in the middle of the night and saw redness, and the next morning, the child was born , is a big fat boy, looks very similar to Jing Rui, with piercing eyes, the family is very happy.

Xiao'er was also very happy when she found out, and she wished to have a quick look at her, but because she was about to give birth, it was not suitable for her to walk around, and Mrs. Liu was also afraid of being bumped into, so she didn't go.

Seeing the birth of someone else's child, Xiao'er now lays on the bed every night because her big belly is pressing on her heart, making it difficult for her to breathe, so she naturally hopes that the child will be born as soon as possible, so that she can escape from the sea of ​​suffering, should I say regain her freedom .
