Chapter 71 Our Enemies Are Not Surnames! !
Chapter 71 Our enemy is not the common people! !
However, facing the food and grass provided by the people.
The Hanzhong Army did not ask for it in vain.
They are indeed short of food and grass, but they will never take the people's life-saving food.
Therefore, they will use money to buy with them, or barter.
The common people also felt the sincerity of the Hanzhong Army, and now they have changed from rejection to support.
Two days later, Jiang Chen's men returned to Hanzhong City
Standing on the city wall, Pang Tong looked at these people with confidence and smiles on their faces
I can't help feeling in my heart:
"My lord, the spiritual outlook of the Hanzhong people!"
"It's the best I've ever seen!"
"It is an honor to follow the lord!"
Pang Tong respectfully saluted Jiang Chen next to him.
"Don't talk about flattery in the future!"
"It's important to get down to business, this year's grain is about to be harvested!"
"You will be amazed when you arrive!"
Jiang Chen said with a smile.
"food?"
Pang Tong looked at Jiang Chen suspiciously. It's not like he hasn't seen a grain harvest before. What's there to be excited about?
"Yes, just let me go and see!"
After a while, they came to the farmland outside the city.
The seeds planted here are exactly the potato seeds that Jiang Chen obtained.
He forcibly ordered the planting, because of this season, Hanzhong's grain could not be planted.
At that time, the common people were forced to plant these grains reluctantly.
"Can this thing be rewarded?"
"Yeah, I think it's a white heart! Seeing that the seedlings are withered!"
"There is no one who grows food in winter. General Jiang is just messing around!"
"General Jiang is here, everyone, take a look!"
The common people were all summoned by Jiang Chen,
Originally, everyone did not hold any hope, but since it was Jiang Chen's order,
Naturally, no one dared to refuse.
In any case, he is the highest official in Hanzhong City.
"Hello, General Jiang!"
The common people immediately bowed to Jiang Chen to salute.
Since Jiang Chen abolished the kneeling ceremony, the common people were obviously not so afraid of him.
Felt he was a good guy, though perhaps unrewarding.
But the starting point is good, who else in the world would be so considerate of the common people?
"Okay, let's start harvesting!"
"Just dig into the soil, remember not to dig it up!"
"The food inside is enough for everyone to eat. With this, you don't have to worry about going hungry in the future."
"Remember to count the yield per mu!"
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he took over the hoe of a commoner next to him.
Then I personally demonstrated it to everyone, and soon, a lot of potatoes were dug out of a potato seedling.
The eyeballs of the common people were about to pop out.
"My lord, my lord, what is this?"
"Why is the output so high?"
"Could it be that every one has such an output?"
Pang Tong was so excited that his body trembled.
"You'll know later!"
Jiang Chen smiled and sold a trick.
"Everyone start digging!"
Soon, the common people joined the ranks of digging.
"A lot, my God, is this the food that God gave us?"
"With such a high yield, I can eat one acre for half a year, right?"
"Could it be that the general is a god who came down to earth and came here specially to rescue our poor people?"
The more they dug, the more excited the people became.
So did Pang Tong, who kept running around the fields with a ledger.
I want to calculate how high the yield per acre is.
"My lord, already, the statistics have been calculated!"
"The yield per mu is a full twenty shi, this, this is simply a miracle!"
"With this food, the people no longer have to worry about going hungry!"
Pang Tong was so excited that he wept.
His family members died of starvation.
If there had been such food earlier, his parents would not have starved to death.
"My lord, does this food come from the sky?"
Pang Tong looked at Jiang Chen, with stars shining in his eyes.
He has completely convinced Jiang Chen, and it is the greatest honor in his life to be able to serve such a lord.
"Not from heaven!"
"However, it's almost the same. It was obtained from a certain country in the west thousands of miles away!"
"It took years for this!"
"I almost thought I would never come back, but fortunately, they brought it back!"
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
In the first year, when he signed the first White Horse Yi Cong army,
A team of a hundred people has already been sent to search for some crop seeds along the Silk Road to the Far West.
As a result, after five years, there were only two people left when they came back.
All the rest died on the way.
Bandits, extreme weather, mirages in the desert, etc.
Thinking of these, Jiang Chen was filled with emotion.
"My lord has the world in mind!"
"I admire you so much!"
Pang Tong also knew how difficult it would be to go to the Far West.
It's not as easy as climbing to the sky.
"Okay, don't talk about this!"
"Let the people light the fire, and today I will teach you how to eat this potato!"
"It's the easiest to bake and eat!"
"Let's make a little bit and taste it together!"
"Yes!!"
Soon, the people washed the potatoes until they were white and clean.
We started to barbecue in the wild, and it happened to be cold, and everyone felt warm around the fire.
Wait until the fire is almost done, and bury the potatoes in the ashes,
The fire was fired on the top again, and soon everyone could smell the aroma from the potatoes.
"My lord, it's ready!"
"My lord, please taste it to see if it is qualified!"
After the first one was baked, the carefully selected potatoes were brought to Jiang Chen's face.
"okay!"
Jiang Chen nodded, and peeled off the skin under the eyes of all the common people.
Suddenly, the aroma of food came into everyone's nose.
"smell good!"
"This thing should be food from the sky!"
"Yes, how can there be such a fragrant thing in the world!"
For the common people, they couldn't even eat enough, and the sorghum had to be eaten with the skin.
Potatoes are indeed a noble luxury.
"Well, it's very well baked!"
"You can eat it if it is soft, but if it is hard, don't eat it!"
"It may be poisoned, and the sprouted ones cannot be eaten!"
"It can be planted in the soil as a seed!"
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, General Jiang!!"
The people nodded.
"Let's eat!"
"Open your stomach and eat your fill today!"
Soon, everyone started gobbling it up.
The more you eat, the more delicious you feel.
This kind of soft taste is hundreds of times more delicious than sorghum with bran.
"My lord, there is this grain!"
"The people all over the world return their hearts, as long as they have this food, the people will definitely come to seek refuge!"
Pang Tong ate and his face was covered in ashes.
"No! Next year, I will give this food seed to the people all over the world!"
"War should not drag the people into misery!"
"My wish is that within two years, there will be no more famine in the world!"
Jiang Jun said firmly.
"My lord is merciful!!"
"The general is merciful!!"
