Chapter 454
In the early morning of the next day, when the scouts were about to leave with the dry rations they had prepared, two carpenters came out of the village to carry the luggage. Qi Ke led the three of them to the pier with their horses. They took the journey, rightly, to find out the way first, and when the boat came back, it happened to be the time for the relief food to go on the way.

The scouts and carpenters boarded the boat, and the water was rippling, and they went away soon.

Although they had to go ashore and change to a land route halfway, this trip by water could save them a day and a half to two days of travel, and they could bring the good news back to the town as soon as possible. At the same time, Siliu Village also began to count the amount of food.

Of course, Bai Qing would not take away all the harvested pig roots, everything was done according to the rules, what should be taken, and what should be paid should be paid. The output of pig roots is amazing, far exceeding the estimated average yield of 50, [-] mu After the confiscation of the fields, the amount exceeded [-] jin. Bai Qing only took half of it, which was enough for emergency relief in Goujing Town, and persisted until the summer grain harvest.

No one expects that Qi Ke's [-]-acre pig ploughing can save all the victims. It is the bulk of the relief food.

Bai Qing only took half of it, and the merchants were very happy. They waited in the village until now, just to wait for the end.

It is said that it is 25 catties of emergency food for disaster relief, but because some of the pig roots were used to make dry noodles, so in fact only 20 catties were produced, and all the existing dry noodles were emptied, and the rest were made up of pig roots , Jiaji Shipping Company is responsible for the transportation.

After baskets of grain were loaded onto the boat, the boats were connected end to end, which was quite spectacular when viewed from afar.

Considering that the shipping can only be delivered halfway, and the second half of the journey has to be changed by land, Bai Qing also wrote back to the camp of Qianhusuo, and sent a team to catch up with a horse-drawn convoy.

After the boats that sent the scouts and carpenters came back, the boats that sent relief food were also ready, and set off quietly on a bright day.

The fleet does not pass through the waters of Donglin County, but countless boatmen and travelers have seen such a fleet transporting grain along the waterway. Some sharp-eyed locals recognized that the baskets contained pig roots. Surprised.

As a result, before the fleet arrived at the destination, news had already spread in Donglin County. Everyone was wondering whether Siliu Village had successfully grown pig shavings, so that they would no longer have to eat wild ones.

This speculation was confirmed after the second Jiaji fleet arrived at the North City Wharf. The merchants who had stayed in Six Liu Village for so many days returned with happy faces and brought the pig roots and dried vermicelli they bought.

Qi Ke from Siliu Village succeeded in planting wild pigs that the locals took for granted.

The entire Donglin County was boiling.

As soon as Bai Qing returned to his territory, he was overwhelmed by posts from the government and the gentry, all of whom invited him to dinner and tea, wedding banquet, birthday banquet, hundred-day banquet, all the reasons that could be used to treat guests were all presented in front of Bai Qing , I hope he will appreciate it and give him a chance for an interview.

Cheng Feng, who returned to the town, also took strict precautions. Outsiders had to go through Erma Town to go to the village. He did not know how many people who wanted to go to Siliu Village for various reasons were stopped.

The pig planes in Qi Ke's hands have been eradicated by her, and the rest are basically emptied. Even if these people go to the village, they can't buy a few, so they all go back and finish the job.
