Wan Gu Qian thought she was upset, and said quickly: "The official neglected
the princess..."
Zi Xu waved his hand: "I'm going to be busy with other things. The plans I
wrote are all with him. You can discuss it yourself.
Also, where is the granary? I want to put down the grain seeds. "
Wan Gu Qian said: "The minister will take you there."
There is a granary in the county office, which is a straight barrel type dug
out of the ground.
There are charcoal, lime and other items at the bottom, then wooden boards and
straw.
Zi Xu waved his hand and filled the granary.
"These are enough for you to grow, but you can only grow some vegetables this
year.
I will leave some inferior food for you to spend this winter. "
Wan Gu Qian said: "When the minister came, he knew that there was no food, and
he had already spent his wealth and bought a lot. It should be enough for the
people to survive the winter."
Zi Xu shook his head: "There are still many refugees who should come back, and
they will be in a hurry.
As for the local wealthy households, you have to deal with them so as not to
be slaughtered by them. "
Eternal money does not know what to say.
Wang Daniu nodded: "His Royal Highness is right, but we will all look at the
county government and will not let those wealthy people have the opportunity
to move him."
Zi Xu smiled and said, "That's good. I still have to keep some food, and I
don't need it."
This time Wan Gu Qian didn't say anything, watching Zi Xu fill up several
warehouses.
Zi Xu patted Wan Guqian on the shoulder: "You will be a good official, but I
advise you not to leave this city.
Your personality is straightforward, you will not get well in the capital, and
there is even the risk of being impeached.
Just guard here, and wait for the next year to be your rich day! "
Wan Gu Qian smiled: "The ministers don't want to get rich, as long as the
people live well."
Zi Xu nodded: "But you still have to make a small amount of money. Maple syrup
is a good thing, and the price will not be lower in the future.
After you boil the maple syrup, find a porcelain bottle and put a layer of
spirits on it.
After igniting, cover it tightly with a wooden stopper, then seal it with wax
and place it in a cool place.
This can be saved for one year, and you can find someone to transport the
maple syrup produced in the first three years to the nearest mercenary union.
Someone will collect it, and after three years you can't send it to the
mercenary union, only the royal family.
So these three years are the days for you to make money, but I advise you not
to be foolish.
If you think about sap, drill more holes, which will cause the trees to die. "
Wan Gu Qian frowned: "This is not the personal property of the minister, and
the minister cannot take it for his own use."
Zi Xu looked sideways: "You are stupid, half of it is put in the office of
Yamen, and you will not be allowed to hire people for road repairs, trees,
etc.?
Doesn't it cost money to hire someone?
For the other half, there is nothing wrong with holding it by yourself,
otherwise it would be nice to rely on your little salary to support yourself.
Don't think about making your family feel better. "
Wang Daniu said: "His Royal Highness said that the wealthy people here
sometimes drink tea or something.
If an adult invites someone to drink tea and can't afford it, it will lose
face. "
Eternal Money chuckled.
Zi Xu waved his hand: "Let's do it, plan it yourself, I have to go to the next
place."
"Send the grand princess."
Zi Xu walked a few steps and then turned around and said, "Huang Daniel, you
will take the shop back tomorrow."
"Yes!"
Zixu returned to the shop and filled the interior and exterior rooms with
dried meat and rice noodles.
The most salt is left, after all, the people cannot do without salt.
After leaving something, she rode Tian Tian to leave Maple City.
Did not return to Beijing, but continued north.
I saw many villages on the way, not very far from Maple Leaf City.
Many people from Maple Leaf City must have sought refuge in these villages.
Tian Tian asked: "Are we going north?"
Zi Xu nodded: "Throw your shoes before going out. The toe of the shoe points
to the north, so go to the north."
Tian Tian: "..." Why don't you throw a hairpin? Throw your shoes.
There were more trees as they went north, but they flew along the official
road, so they saw a city before dark.
But Zi Xu didn't enter the city directly, but fell outside, preparing to walk
over.
But when I came to the door, I found that the door was closed.
Now that the sun hasn't set, how come the city gate is closed?
Zi Xu knocked on the door, and someone inside shouted: "The gate is closed,
you go home quickly."
"I want to stay at the inn, what do you do without closing the gates this
day?"
The soldier inside said, "You are from outside, so don't come out in the
carriage.
The door is impossible to open, so be careful. "
Zi Xu suspiciously asked, "Could it be haunted here?"
The soldier may be fine, but he said patiently: "We are not haunted by ghosts
or monsters. As soon as the sun sets, monsters will come out to eat people."
Zi Xu: "..." Seems familiar!
"Isn't it dark? Can't you let me in?"
"No, the order from above, our town lord's young master was arrested and
eaten, leaving only clothes and skeleton."
What else did Zi Xu say, the sky suddenly became dark.
The sun was like a broken bead, falling below the horizon with one brush.
Tian Tian got out the carriage: "It seems that we can only sleep in the
carriage today."
Zi Xu nodded and entered the carriage.
I heard strange sounds in my ears, like many legs crawling on the ground.
She probed and saw nothing.
After an hour, the voice got closer and closer.
Zixu lifted the driving curtain and looked at it. He couldn't see anything in
the dark.
She took out the Ye Mingzhu to light up and found many ants on the ground.
Each of these ants has big fingers, black and shiny, but the eyes are blood
red.
"What breed is this?"
Tian Tian said, "It looks like a carnivorous ant."
Zixu sprinkled the insect repellent powder on the ground. The ants walked
around, but they were only one finger wide from the insect repellent powder.
It can be seen that unless you apply the insecticide powder all over your
body, just carrying the sachet will not be able to resist the attack of these
carnivorous ants.
She could only watch these ants crawling over the city wall.
Tian Tian said: "Don't think about fighting, you can't beat these ants."
Zi Xu frowned: "Will they eat everyone in the city?"
Tian Tian didn't speak because it didn't know either.
"Go and see, if it's dangerous, I have to call people up."
Tian Tian nodded.
Zixu receives the image from Tian Tian.
Those carnivorous ants will not enter other people's homes, they will only
walk on the street.
They walked from the avenue in the center of the city gate to the opposite
city gate very orderly.
Zi Xu felt strange and asked Tian Tian to take her over there after receiving
the carriage.
Where are these ants going?
Tian Tian said: "It's strange, they won't attack creatures actively, they will
bite unless they block the way."
Zi Xu nodded: "It's weird, what are these ants doing? Do they count as ants
moving?"
Tian Tian said: "No, if they move, they should not come back.
I think the monsters in the city are these ants. "
Zi Xu nodded: "It's very possible."
