He Zheng, the reborn woman

Chapter 247 Natural Disaster

Chapter 247 Natural Disaster
"Old man, you don't need to be polite." Shen Lan said something amazing again, but she was completely unaware of the unbelievable look on Xuan Ling's face.

Sinong was also taken aback by her words, thinking he had found the wrong person: "Madam sent someone to ask old man Yushi?"

"Yes." Shen Lan signaled Xuan Ling to serve tea, "Is it because there is little rain in Xia Cheng itself, or is there a strange phenomenon this year?"

Sinong was relieved when he heard Shen Lan say this, and it seemed that he had found the right person, so he spread the booklet in his hand on the table: "This is the 30-year climate of Xiacheng recorded by the old man, every day, this year This happened once 20 years ago."

"What?" Shen Lan looked at him with a serious expression, as if this matter was serious.

"The rain in Xiacheng is very regular every year, and the time of occurrence is only a few days sooner or later, but there is very little spring rain like this year, and there is no rain for a month. It only happened once 20 years ago, and that Once Xiacheng experienced a great disaster." Si Nong said a little excitedly.

Shen Lan was a little confused, she just thought it had been a long time since it rained, it was just because she felt that the heat was a little abnormal, if the extreme heat in early summer is a bit abnormal, she would like to ask if it has been a long time since it rained Because of the rain, I didn't expect such a serious thing to happen.

"The weather 20 years ago was almost the same as it is today. There was very little rain in spring, and there was no rain for more than two months in early summer. The water in the moat was dry, and the wells in the city were dry. Yu Zhuang’s family had no crops, so they had no choice but to come to the city to beg for food, and there was no water in the city, so during that time there was starvation everywhere.” Si Nong was a little excited when he said that, but he didn’t mention some things. There was even a situation of cannibalism "It didn't start to rain until the end of summer, and the people thought they were saved, but it turned out to be rainy, and then the plague broke out in the city, and the people sent by the imperial court died here. The plague didn't end until the end of autumn, and the number of people in Xia City who survived this catastrophe was less than one-tenth of the original number."

Shen Lan's heart sank, she knew a little bit about this extreme weather: "Then the old man is worried about repeating the situation of 20 years ago?"

Sinong nodded: "Now King Qin is occupying Xiacheng, soldiers are everywhere, and the people in the city don't know the conditions of the farms outside the city. Besides, those wealthy households also have food reserves, but if it takes a long time, there will be problems."

Shen Lan was silent for a long time, the appearance of the weather was usually regular, she did not suspect that the Secretary of Agriculture was unfounded, but how to solve this problem?
"Ma'am?" Si Nong saw Shen Lan's thoughtful look.

"Oh, I see, you go back first, I'll think of a way." Shen Lan felt that this problem was too big, and she couldn't do it against the sky.

Sinong was a little frustrated, because seeing Shen Lan's fugue, he felt very emboldened.

"Wait a minute." Shen Lan suddenly called Si Nong to stop.

"Madam, what else do you want?" Sinong's eyes lit up, maybe things turned around.

"I don't know what the old man can do?" Shen Lan immediately threw the question to Si Nong.

Sinong blinked his small eyes twice, what could he do about this kind of thing.

"Building water, digging wells to fight drought, and painting ditches to drain waterlogging are unrealistic. I don't know what else the old man can do." Shen Lan looked at Si Nong.

What can be done is unrealistic by Shen Lan, what else can Sinog say?

"I think the old man has a heart of worrying about the world, and he knows the farming season very well. I don't know if the old man is willing to stay with me as a farmer." Shen Lan said simply.

The fight is all about food and grass, and she has no way out now, so she can think about how to get out. Si Nong is a idle job, and Shen Lan sees that he has a heart of worrying about the world, so she wants to win him over and plant the food and grass in the rear Being good is also a big thing.

Sinong was a little confused: "Madam, please clarify."

"Now the king has no way for all to see."

"Ma'am, are you planning to rebel against me?" Sinong's expression dropped.

Shen Lan looked at his expression and smiled: "Old man, didn't you come to see me today because you were worried about Xia Cheng? And didn't I already fight against the court? Then the old man has obeyed me too."

Sinong was a little at a loss for words. Although Xiacheng was a bit turbulent after King Qin came, everything was going well. He was too anxious to think about this.

"Don't worry, old man, if there is chaos in the world, there is nothing wrong with each being his own master, but what I want is a peaceful place for the people who have nowhere to go." Shen Lan said lightly, "Think about it, old man." .”

Sinong couldn't make up his mind, so he saluted and went on.

After meeting Sinong, Shen Lan's heart became even more chaotic. When a housewife wants to toss about those daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, a lady wants to toss about those piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and wine, and the gangsters want to talk about benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, loyalty and trustworthiness. Living without hobbies is really tiring.

Jiang Gumu has already prepared everything except sweet-scented osmanthus and sesame pepper. As long as sweet-scented osmanthus and sesame pepper arrive, Qin Hongyi can be healed. The good thing is that this rot muscle powder will have no effect as long as it invades the texture. It just takes the person completely powerless without further harm.

They have not been idle these few days. Naturally, there are many wounded soldiers after a battle, but not all of them can be seen by the couple. Huo Qingyao is pregnant, and Jiang Gumu doesn't let her get tired, so she just watches Herbs and stuff like that.

Fu Yunxi's people were also injured. Shen Lan arranged them together alone, and Yan Hong was also in charge. Now Shen Lan's main forces in Xia City are those from the previous guards.

But this is also a very sensitive thing. Before Zhu Gaoyuan went to Yan Shuge and Lin Xicong to arrange for someone to intercept and kill him, he returned without success. Now that Zhu Gaoyuan came back, he didn't know about it, but he and Lin Xicong were estranged from the beginning. After he came back, he followed Yan Hong and didn't meet Lin Xicong much, and Lin Xicong didn't care about him.

Shen Lan watches a lot of things every day, and she basically watches all kinds of things when she is not eating and sleeping. Xuan Ling, Xuan Silk and Xuan Duan send all kinds of news to her, and she needs to check and deal with them.

I stood up and pinched my waist with my hands behind my back. I was so tired. I really didn't know that so many things had happened during the time I was away.

"Lan'er." Qin Hongyi called her inside.

Shen Lan heard Qin Hongyi tell her to go in hastily: "What's wrong?"

Qin Hongyi just heard the voice and wanted to see what she was doing: "Thank you for your hard work."

Shen Lan looked at Qin Hongyi with guilty and doting eyes: "Then I will leave these things to you from now on."

 There's only one hundred left to collect, give me some strength......
