I have a mall space system, raise the baby first and then fight

Shen Lianxin rolled her eyes.

The king sat beside her obediently.

Shen Lianxin took out a wolf and threw ten chickens to it, but it didn't move and used its big paws to make a gesture of drinking water.

Shen Lianxin threw it another box of Coke, and then it happily went to enjoy the food.

Shen Lianxin found it funny. The king actually made her feel like a little brat.

Shen Lianxin also ate. She bought two boxes of apples from the space and sat next to them to eat them.

The king's meal tasted too bloody, so Shen Lianxin turned her back to it and threw it an apple from time to time.

The man and the tiger actually live in harmony.

I never expected that I, Shen Lianxin, would actually make a tiger friend in this world.

After eating and drinking, Shen Lianxin patted her butt and left.

"I have to go back now. I'll bring you some delicious food tomorrow. Remember not to hurt anyone. Stay away for the next two days."

The king growled, feeling a little aggrieved.

After watching Shen Lianxin leave, the king turned and walked in the opposite direction.

"Oh, Shen is here."

"Are you OK?"

Shen Lianxin was puzzled, "It's okay, what's wrong?"

"I just found you missing and thought you were in danger. Now I'm glad to see that you are okay." The worry in the headman's eyes has not yet faded.

"I'm fine. I went to check the surroundings to see if there was any danger. I didn't see any wild animals coming in or out. Don't worry, everyone. Hurry and do your work."

Shen Lianxin also took a hoe and started digging trenches. After a while, she was sweating all over.

From morning to night, Shen Lianxin would work for a while when she was bored, and sit aside to rest when she was tired, but she did not dare to leave.

Although she had agreed with the king, it was not just the king who was in danger in the deep mountains. If anything happened, they could be taken care of. If she was not here and the king changed his mind, all these people would die.

So, no matter how the head of the village persuaded her, Shen Lianxin refused to leave.

For three consecutive days, from morning to night, the crowd finally brought the water down the mountain.

They also dug an artificial lake to store water. It really is true that there is strength in numbers.

Everyone was happy, and Shen Lianxin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, he went up the mountain to see the king and left some meat and food for it.

There was reluctance in the king's eyes. Shen Lianxin felt that she was crazy, she actually saw reluctance in the eyes of a tiger.

He shook his head and left.

On the way down the mountain, we saw many soldiers entering the village. Many families in the village were wailing, and the soldiers were forcibly collecting food.

"Sir, you can't take it all away. How are our family of five going to survive?"

The soldier kicked the villager Uncle Li in the chest and said, "Get lost! The Ministry of War is collecting grain, and you dare to disobey orders?"

As he was about to draw his sword, Mr. Li was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, “Don’t dare, don’t dare!!!”

The head of the village followed beside him and said humbly, "Sir, sir, the tax grain has been collected. This year there is a severe drought and the harvest is poor. The people have no grain left. If we collect more, people will starve to death."

The officers and soldiers didn't even look at the head of the village. The head of the village grabbed the clothes of the leading officer and the officer turned around and kicked him. The head of the village, who was already old, fell to the ground.

He knelt down immediately and said, "Sir, Sir, spare my life. These grains are our lives. If you take them away, we will all die."

A fat soldier with big ears grinned and said, "You die? Who of us soldiers died before you on the battlefield? We protect you, but you let the soldiers on the front line fight for you with empty stomachs? Your life is life, but our lives are not life?"

The leader of another group that was foraging for food came over and shouted, "That's right. If you die, only your people will die. If we can't defend the border, the whole country will die! Which one do you think is more serious?"

When the head of the village heard this, he buried his head on the ground and cried loudly, but he didn't dare to say no.

"Search! Hand over all the food."

Shen Lianxin stepped forward and helped the head of the village up.

"Take care of yourself!" Shen Lianxin's eyes were red, but she was powerless to stop it.

There was a commotion and the Shen residence was naturally not spared. All the food that Shen Lianxin had placed in the rice jar in the kitchen was searched away. Of course, Shen Lianxin placed the rest of the valuables in the space, which also avoided further losses.

The villagers wailed. They had finally found water, but now their food had been forcibly confiscated. How would the villagers survive?

When the village meeting was held again, the head of the village looked even more hunched.

"Under the strong control of the prefect, the grain prices in Yuncheng have increased by more than three times. It's hard to survive when there's a famine and war!"

Everyone sighed.

"Ms. Shen, do you have any solution? Can it solve the current predicament?" the village head asked. Unconsciously, he had already regarded Shen Lianxin as his backbone.

Shen Lianxin didn't know much about agriculture, so she really didn't know what to do. She couldn't use her money to support the whole village until the autumn harvest next year. Not to mention whether she could afford it, this was not a solution.

After thinking about it, even if I don't understand, I still have some common sense. Potatoes have high yields, short cycles, and are cold-resistant and drought-resistant.

When a disaster strikes, don’t the heroes and heroines in novels lead everyone to plant sweet potatoes and potatoes? It’s also a novel, so can we do the same?

"Well, how about we try growing potatoes?"

The village head's eyes lit up. "Potatoes? The potato cycle is short, but the yield is not high. However, we can give it a try. Maybe we can harvest some before winter comes."

The yield is not high? Shen Lianxin was confused. Aren't there a large area of ​​potatoes? The yield is the highest. Those years when people couldn't get enough food were all supported by potatoes.

"Village head, why is the potato yield not high?"

"You don't know?" It makes sense upon thinking about it. Shen Lianxin doesn't farm. She comes from a hunter's family. Her husband didn't farm when he was alive. It's not surprising that she doesn't know.

"One acre of land produces 200 kilograms of grain, which is a good harvest. One acre of land produces only 200 kilograms of potatoes. So people in our village don't like to grow potatoes, and the selling price of potatoes is relatively higher."

Shen Lianxin really didn't know, and had never eaten potatoes from this world. She had always bought them from the space before.

The village head handed a potato to Shen Lianxin and took a look. The potato in this world might be a different variety. It was very small and green. It was completely different from modern potatoes.

Shen Lianxin pondered, perhaps this was the root cause of famine in this world.

The underdeveloped agriculture and poor quality of grain resulted in low yields. Therefore, although most of the country's land was cultivated, many people still died of famine every year.

Shen Lianxin wanted to understand the key point. "Li Zheng, this variety may not work. I met a businessman from Southeast Asia when I was doing business with someone in the city before. He has a better variety with a particularly high yield and a large size. Wait for me to make some inquiries."

Let's push it to Nanyang first. Nanyang sounds like a very fashionable place, so it's not surprising that there are good things there. Anyway, no one else has seen it.

Shen Lianxin really needs to study this carefully when she gets back.

When the village head heard this, hope shone in his eyes again, "Shen, please pay more attention to it."
