After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

This child was a little thinner when he came, but after eating enough during this period, his body became a lot stronger, and he became taller. When he turned 16 years old, he was in full strength!

The most important thing is that Ling Ran is knowledgeable, repays kindness and has a quick mind. With him here, they can rest assured.

As for food, the most indispensable thing right now is food.

Shui Qing, who separated from Ling Ran and returned to the room, figured out that the most important thing they needed was food!

No matter whether you are fleeing for safety or staying at home, there will be no shortage of food.

"If we go out to escape, I think it is unlikely." Fan Jin analyzed Shui Qing, who was sitting on the armchair next to the window sill: "Jinling City is in the north of Guangning Mansion, and the northern capital where King Yan is located is in the higher part of Jinling City. north;

Even if King Yan really rebels, the main battlefield will be between Beidu and Jinling City. Our place will be affected, but it will be limited. "

Shui Qing nodded.

The northern capital is equivalent to Beijing in China. It was very northerly in this dynasty. King Yan was allowed to guard it mainly to resist the nomads.

Guangning Mansion is far away from Jinling City, not to mention Beidu. The probability of them fleeing is really low, but the possibility of staying at home is very high.

She continued quietly: "It's just that if there is a flood next year, we can't count on the imperial court."

Originally, I didn't expect the imperial court to provide disaster relief, but with the imperial court's presence, it could at least deter the victims and prevent them from acting recklessly.

And once the vassal king rebels and goes to war, won't the world become even more chaotic?

Fan Jin looked solemn, and after a while he said worriedly: "Shui Qing, I'm afraid. I'm afraid that the war won't end in a year or two. If it lasts for several years or more than ten decades, what will be the safety of you and your children?" Assure?"

He was previously worried about flooding.

But after all, floods are no better than droughts, and there may be no harvest, but not a blade of grass will grow. The vegetation on the mountain is prosperous, and there will be no wild vegetables, weeds, or bark left to eat.

But when there is something to eat, only a few people take desperate risks.

My father-in-law and his family are here, plus Taurus and the others, so I’m not too worried about safety.

If we add war, natural disasters plus man-made disasters, it would be an exaggeration to call it purgatory.

Shui Qing knew that this battle would not last for more than ten years, but four years. When she read history books, she felt that four years was not a long time, but now that she was actually involved in it, she felt that four years was such a long time!

It's almost as if there is no end in sight.

Think about it, for four years it was chaos outside, you were in danger of dying at any time when you went out, and someone could break in at any time at home.

You can't go to Fucheng, but you have to be careful when going to Niutou Town, and you have to be careful even in the village.

A large family can only stay at home most of the time.

And it will take four years to live such a life of fear and worry!

The only good thing is that they built a big house with many rooms for many people, and a large yard with enough space for activities...

"Don't be afraid, we have a shopping mall here! I've done the math. If you don't buy large items, the savings in the mall will be more than enough. It won't be a problem to have enough food and clothing.

As for safety, we must make preparations in advance. Iron nails are embedded in all the walls of our yard. This is high ground. Even if there are bad guys coming, they will come to the village first and then come to us.

But if the people in Shanshui Village can't resist it, it's not safe to just rely on two or three of our families. We have to organize them all for protection! "

The victims and refugees are not just one or two, nor are they one or two, they are most likely coming in groups with weapons!

Robbery, killing, and even rape/sexuality were commonplace at that time.

There are dozens or even hundreds of people, how can they resist with just a dozen of them?

Not to mention anything else, just patrolling and defending day and night is too much.

Fan Jin gradually calmed down and responded: "Okay, the old village chief is a person who has experienced war, and he probably cares about it as much as we do.

The two of us first bought long knives and other weapons in batches and stockpiled them. If the day really comes, we can take them out and distribute them. "

Shui Qing had no objection. It was difficult for villagers to buy iron pots and kitchen knives, let alone weapons.

At that time, I am afraid that I will only be able to resist with hoes and shovels. Hoes and shovels can also be considered weapons, but they are far less powerful than long swords and spears.

They provide weapons and can better organize manpower when the time comes.

"There are 34 households in the village, not including us, with more than 400 people. Among them, there are about a hundred men in their prime. Isn't that a little small?"

Shui Qing disagreed: "Some women are not inferior to men, they are even stronger than men and can use them;

There are also some teenagers who are energetic, have good eyesight, and are smart and agile. It is very good to let them patrol together. They can also replace people without delaying the busy farming and autumn harvest. "

Others don't know, but she knows that this battle will last four years!

For four years, they must eat, drink, and eat, and the fields must not be left unused.

"Also, if you order hundreds of long knives from the blacksmith at once, will the blacksmith tell the government?"

Are weapons regulated these days?

Fan Jin was silent.

I'll definitely tell you.

Shui Qing called up the shopping mall again. It has to be said that this universal shopping mall has everything you can't imagine and it doesn't sell anything!

I searched for knives, but all that came out were kitchen knives and fruit knives.

This one won't work, it's too short and the protection ability is not enough.

Shui Qing searched for the big knife again.

This time it came out in a variety of ways.

Shui Qing picked out a few models and bought them, placing them on the long table in the room.

Fan Jin looked at the beautiful sword and was stunned.

"They are all unsharpened, so you have to sharpen them yourself, how about that? OK?"

Fan Jin nodded suddenly.

If this doesn’t work, what will?

He quickly asked: "Shui Qing, how much does this cost? It must be very expensive."

The whole body is dark, and it looks like it can blow and break hair. It is also a treasured sword in the capital.

"Oh, the one over there is 120, and the one here is more than 80." Shui Qing replied casually.

Fan Jin was shocked again by the prices in the mall...

"I'll pick out a few good ones and give them to everyone in our family. By the way, it's best for everyone in Aunt Zhang's family to get one!"

"Well, Jinniu and the others are all big, and Aunt Zhang and Xiaocao are also very strong. They are close to us and treat us well. Everyone has weapons in hand, so we are safer."

"It's impossible for every other household in the village to provide it. Let's prepare a total of 150. If there is really chaos outside, let the old village chief distribute it."

Fan Jin had no objection. Anyway, his own family was protected, and other families could be allocated by the old village chief, which he could trust.

"We can't stop brewing, we need money, and the more, the better!"

Once a war starts, rice wine will definitely not be sold, and even the writing brush business will not be able to continue.
