A dark villain came to Jinting Bulaoxiang
Chapter 268 Big Harvest.
"Hmm! This tea smells so good!" Xiao Sizhe couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, while gently covering her mouth with her hands, her eyes flashing with surprise and satisfaction, thinking to herself that this tea was so delicious, and that the fifth sister was really a clever person.
The fifth girl smiled and said gently, "If the second young master likes it, I can dry some and give it to you." Her heart was full of joy, and she was very happy to be liked by the guests.
At this time, Sikong Yan looked at the Fifth Lady with a slightly solemn expression, secretly worried about the severe situation of the country's food shortage, and slowly said: "Okay! Nowadays, our country is short of food, and the situation is very critical. I wonder how many ears of grain the girl has left?"
After hearing this, the fifth girl immediately showed a puzzled expression on her face. She looked back and forth at everyone, and couldn't help but wonder in her heart: Why are these people suddenly asking about Gu Sui? Who are they? After a moment, she slowly opened her mouth and asked, "Who are you..."
Xiao Sizhe jumped in front of the Fifth Girl excitedly, with passion and justice burning in her eyes, and said loudly: "To be honest, Fifth Sister, we are anti-council elements! The tyrant's rampant and violent extortion is simply outrageous! His actions have caused the people to live in misery, and the people are living in dire straits.
We really can't bear to see everyone suffer, so we are secretly preparing to overthrow him and replace him with a wise ruler so that the people can live a good life! Sister, if you can support us, I hope you have grain to sell to us, and we are willing to charge a high price! "
Xiao Sizhe's heart is filled with anger towards the tyrant and sympathy for the people. He firmly believes that only by overthrowing the tyrant can the country be saved.
After hearing what Xiao Sizhe said, the fifth girl was moved. She had long heard about the corruption of the court and the atrocities of the emperor, and was well aware of the suffering of the people. She could not help but admire the behavior of these anti-coalition elements. She asked without hesitation, "Okay, how much do you want?"
Sikong Yan pondered for a moment, frowning, calculating the food needs of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in his mind, and said: "One hundred shi per month is of course the best long-term supply!" His heart was full of expectations, hoping that the Fifth Girl would agree to their request.
After hearing this, everyone was extremely excited, as if they saw the dawn of hope. They knew very well that this 100 dan of grain was crucial to their plan. If they could get the support of the fifth girl, then their chances of overthrowing the tyrant would be greatly increased.
However, the fifth girl frowned slightly, secretly calculating her own inventory and the grain that was about to be harvested. She pondered for a while and said, "Now I only have 50 dan of grain in stock. These grains were planted by my mother and I in a wasteland where no one dared to go for three years. In order to avoid the heavy taxes, we could only choose to work in such a remote place. Although they are all old grains, we stored them well in case of emergency." The fifth girl cherished the fruits of her hard work, and also sympathized with and supported these anti-column elements.
After hearing this, everyone's heart sank, as if the fire of hope that had just been ignited had been poured with a bucket of cold water. They looked at each other, with disappointment and worry on their faces. Without 100 dan of food, it would not be enough for more than 100,000 soldiers to eat for a month, not to mention what to do next month?
"Miss, can you collect some food for us? One hundred dan of food a month is far from enough for these hundreds of thousands of soldiers!" Shui Qinglian looked anxious and her eyes were full of earnestness. She was very worried that the food problem would affect their plans.
The fifth girl was embarrassed and shook her head gently, thinking helplessly in her heart, where can she collect so much food now that there is no harvest? She sighed and said, "According to the current situation where there is no harvest, even if I go around to collect food, it will be difficult to collect any food."
She blinked her beautiful eyes, and suddenly thought of the wheat ears that were about to be harvested, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her heart. She continued: "Although I only have 50 dan of grain now, I will have dan of wheat ears to harvest in half a month. Do you think it's okay?" The fifth girl was a little worried, but she also hoped that she could help these people.
"Oh my god, you are such a capable person! How can you two grow so much food? It is said that a farmer's family can only grow one or two dan of food a year! And you can grow 500 dan! You are really an amazing person!" Xiao Sanlang looked at the Fifth Girl in front of him with a face full of surprise, his eyes full of admiration and admiration, and he admired the Fifth Girl's ability and perseverance in his heart. He couldn't believe that in such a difficult environment, the Fifth Girl could grow so much food.
Xiao Sizhe, Sikong Yan and Shui Qinglian were also so shocked that they could not speak. Their hearts were filled with shock and admiration. They stared at the Fifth Girl blankly, as if they had seen a miracle. After a long while, they came to their senses and hope was rekindled in their hearts.
The courtyard fell silent for a moment, with only the rustling of leaves in the breeze. Everyone was thinking about the next plan and how to better cooperate with the fifth girl.
They knew very well that the support of the Fifth Girl was crucial to their plan, and they must cherish this opportunity and work hard to overthrow the tyrant and save the people.
After a long time, it seemed as if time had frozen at this moment. Xiao Sizhe's eyes suddenly lit up, and he jumped up excitedly, holding the fifth sister's hand at once, looking like a child who had received the most beloved gift. He said excitedly: "That's great, that's great, Fifth Sister, you are simply our savior! Then Fifth Sister can grow food all year round? In this way, we don't have to worry about food anymore, and the soldiers will have the strength to win the battle!" Xiao Sizhe's heart was full of expectations. He seemed to have seen the dawn of victory in the future, and the light of hope flashed in his eyes.
The fifth girl smiled and nodded, with a firm look in her eyes, and said, "Yes, yes! We have only reclaimed part of the wasteland. If we have more people to help, we can harvest at least a thousand stones of grain a year!" The fifth girl's heart was also full of longing. She knew very well what these grains meant to the anti-coalition elements. They were their hope to overthrow the tyrant and save the people. Thinking of this, she felt a strong sense of responsibility and mission.
