Life master in the last days

After the old general tasted the meals cooked by Ling Xue one by one, he was naturally very satisfied. He is not usually very fond of these appetites, and he does not often indulge in large amounts of fish and meat, so he still likes these home-cooked dishes made by Ling Xue.

"Your skills are great. You are almost as good as the royal chefs in the palace!" The old general got Ling Xue's sponsorship, and he praised Ling Xue to the sky.

Although Ling Xue knew that her craftsmanship was good, compared with the royal chefs in the palace, it was still not the slightest bit inferior.

The old general's compliment really made her blush.

"Thank you, thank you!"

Neither of them were polite people, and all the meals prepared by Ling Xue were wiped out by them. Even the large box of vegetable steamed buns made by Ling Xue were eaten by the two of them, and not a drop of the pot of soup made with tender sweet potato leaves was drunk by the old general.

Ling Xue was worried that he wouldn't be full after seeing his arrogant posture. She underestimated the old general's appetite: "Have you had enough, old general? How about I make some more?"

The old general waved his hands and declined: "Enough, enough! I haven't had such a good time eating for a long time. This vegetable steamed bun is very good. This method can save a lot of food! What a good idea!"

Ling Xue is also a little proud, it is also a good thing to save more food!

"I have planted so many sweet potatoes. There are so many tender sweet potato leaves that we can't eat them all by ourselves. Let the soldiers come and pick them when you have time!"

The old general felt a little embarrassed that he had taken advantage of you. He thought about it and said to Ling Xue: "Well, we are very sorry that we have taken advantage of you. We don't have any money or food, but only a handful of strength. Didn't you say that you want to take advantage of us?" Why do you want to dry the vegetables? Let them come and pick the young sweet potato leaves for you, and just take the ones for the military camp with you when they leave."

Ling Xue was worried about not having enough manpower. The old general's words seemed to open up Ling Xue's second line of appointment and governor. Yes, she didn't have enough manpower. The old general had it here!

Ling Xue happily accepted the old general's arrangement, which would also make the old general and the others feel better. Otherwise, they would still feel bad about letting these soldiers eat for free.

"Then it's agreed, your soldiers will come to help, and I will provide them with sweet potato leaves to eat. If there is too much, you can blanch it and dry it and store it, so that you can have one more dish to eat in the winter!"

With this arrangement, both parties are happy!

As for whether to invite these soldiers when harvesting sweet potatoes, Ling Xue felt that maybe not.

It's not that she doesn't want to give the soldiers more opportunities to earn some food, but Ling Xue feels that when the sweet potatoes mature, there will definitely be more and more refugees, and this opportunity must be left to them.

Thinking of this, Ling Xue called Shen Zhen to discuss it with him.

"I plan to ask the refugees to help collect sweet potatoes. Do you think this is feasible?"

Shen Zhen also thinks it is feasible, but the details need to be carefully considered.

"It's feasible, but the rules must be set in advance, otherwise when those refugees swarm up, we will have nothing left!"

Ling Xue nodded. This was natural. If they were afraid of the refugees causing trouble, they could ask the old general to come and take charge. At this time, not only the refugees were short of food and drink, but other forces, large and small, were also short of food. Therefore, the old general and the others were invited to take charge not only to guard against refugees, but also to guard against other forces coming to snatch food.

Don't think that these forces don't know about Yunyang City. They know everything about Lingxue's planting of new grains. It's just that they are fighting for territory now and can't spare any time to deal with Yunyang Mansion. But that's not necessarily the case when the food is mature. They are likely to attack Yunyang Mansion for food.
