Chapter 226 A World With More Men and Less Women 18
There are also weak and disabled people, fleeing with them may be a burden, but An Ran is asking them to help them go out and escort the food and grass back. She will recruit people to transport the food, and they will help to watch it. They can still help with this. on, so naturally agreed.

The main reason is that An Ran told them that although there is a natural danger on the Yongjiang River, the enemy is on the other side, and they still need to take some precautions in Lijia Village (the place where they temporarily rented). Even if you don’t guard against the bandits, you have to guard against the nearby bandits coming to plunder (it’s a good thing that the rebels didn’t come here, and it’s a good thing that there’s no war, but at the same time, there’s no one to clean up the bandits, so sometimes bandits come and go), lest It’s hard to find a place to stay. People come to grab things every three days. They always have nothing to eat or drink, and they can’t survive. She brought them out to save their lives as much as possible. There is no point in bringing them here.

They also think this is the reason. Anyway, they were robbed of all their food and money by the bandits. If it weren't for An Ran, they must have been dead at that time. To repay their favor, they had to listen to her, not to mention that her analysis was correct, so they naturally followed An Ran to do things together.

An Ran took a few people to the south, and went to a large grain-producing mansion about a hundred miles away from here. She had already inquired about it, and the price of food there was not bad. Now, An Ran took advantage of the good price of food and planned to stock up more. food.

This world is about to become chaotic. It can be compared to the end of the world. What is the most important thing in the end of the world is to store all kinds of materials, so An Ran naturally buys some food and stores it before the fire is everywhere.

A young man named Zhang Tiezhu who was traveling with him couldn’t help but be speechless when he saw that An Ran took out 1000 taels of silver bills and bought a thousand shi of grain as soon as he made a move. You know, he had never seen so much money in his life. This benefactor who is sick is really rich.

An Ran explained: "I treat those rich families, and I pay a lot of money for the consultation, so I saved some money."

In fact, of course not, all her money for the time being comes from the generous "donations" for the rich and unkind, but after Yizhuang stabilizes, she will indeed make more money and stockpile food by treating diseases for the rich.

Thinking of An Ran's miraculous medical skills, Zhang Tiezhu couldn't help nodding his head—with such medical skills, it must be easy to make money.

At that moment, An Ran and Zhang Tiezhu and the others returned to Lijia Village with the thousand shi of grain. Fortunately, no bandits were encountered on the way. Of course, they may have encountered bandits, but the bandits may not dare to show up because of their large number of people. You know, as far as An Ran knows, there is no big bandit village nearby, only a few small groups of bandits, as long as it is not a big bandit village with hundreds of people, small groups of bandits will not dare to reach out when seeing dozens of people passing by .

Seeing that a thousand shi of grain had been put into storage, An Ran felt a little more at ease.

In this era, one stone of grain is about 120 catties, and one thousand stones of grain, if used sparingly, can probably manage 1000 people for about a hundred days, but this is obviously not enough, so Enron will continue to store supplies.

At this time, An Ran especially misses the small secret realm in the mission of comprehension. If there is such a thing, she can go to places where the food price is relatively low, buy a large amount of food and store it there, without being escorted, and take it by herself. Come to this place, rent a warehouse, put things in there, and when you need to take them out, just say that you have prepared them earlier, how good it is, it’s not like there is no storage ring now, and you have to worry about getting some food back. People miss it.

And before that, Enron was going to make money.

Fortunately, according to the original body's memory and her observations on the other side, the rebel army should not be able to cross the river within a few months without him. Since Zhang Wentian would send his men to the villages to collect food on the spot, what does this mean? It means that there is a problem with Zhang Wentian's food, if he can't solve this problem for a while, he can't even try to fight across the river. crossing the river, it is unrealistic to cross the river in the vast and dangerous place of this mansion), then how can they survive?
Don't talk about Jiang, An Ran felt that if Zhang Wentian didn't solve the food problem, it would be a problem whether Dingxi Mansion could be breached after she left. After all, she had heard that in order to curb the bandits, the imperial court invested A large number of troops were sent, and famous generals were sent to meet the enemy.

She eavesdropped in the Yunyang government office a few times, and the magistrate and the guard felt that the famous generals of the imperial court might not be able to defeat the foreign cavalry in the north, but could they not be able to defeat their own people who had no cavalry at all?

An Ran didn't know how capable Zhang Wentian was, whether he could beat that famous general, but she knew that the three armies hadn't moved, and the food and grass went first. Looking for food in the mansion, otherwise, let alone the river, it is estimated that even the Dingxi mansion will not be able to fight, so I can only go back to the base camp to recuperate, and make plans after the summer harvest has food.

After such a speculation, An Ran spread the reputation of the genius doctor outward, and at the same time led people to arrange the entrance of Lijia Village.

There was a reason why An Ran chose Yunyang Mansion, a small suburban village close to the river, to settle down—the main reason was that the village had a good terrain, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Since the river in Yunyang Mansion is steep, the terrain near the river is gradually steeper, and this Lijia Village is like this, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there is only one entrance from the village, which is also the only wide place.

So as long as this place is well managed, once someone comes to attack, only a small number of troops will be sent to patrol the area surrounded by mountains on three sides, and most of the troops can be placed at the entrance of the village to snipe the enemy. Rarely, as long as there is enough food, the enemy can't do anything to her for a while, so choosing this place to settle down is very cost-effective, which is why An Ran chose this place.

"Let's set the gate here." An Ran took Zhang Tiezhu and others to a place far away from Li's Village, which should be regarded as another village, said.

The entrance of Lijia Village is flat and open, so it is not a good place to set up a gate. Fortunately, not far from Lijia Village, there is a narrow place, which is said to be the junction of the two villages. The people in the village have almost run away, so they want to set up checkpoints here, unlike usual, some people will jump out and object, saying that it is a place in their village, so why can people from Lijia Village come here to do things.

"The front is narrow, so it's convenient to set checkpoints and attack; the back is wide, if there are enemies coming to make trouble, it's very convenient to put weapons or our rotating guards there." An Ran said.

As for how to set up checkpoints, An Ran had spent time in the army during that end-of-the-world mission, so she naturally knew something about it.
