Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 837
"Another disaster? What kind of disaster?" Ji Xun couldn't help but pause with his hands.

"Snow disaster." Shen Yu'an also put down his chopsticks, looked at Ji Xun and said solemnly, "This volcanic eruption is bound to cause sudden changes in the weather, leading to low temperature and snowstorms, and even next year there will be a year without summer, and crop production will plummet" Volcanic ash Blocking out the sky will indeed lead to such a series of disasters.

Ji Xun was stunned after hearing this, he would never have the slightest doubt about Shen Yuan's words.

"In this way, disasters are coming one after another!" Ji Xun couldn't help feeling heavy, "It seems that what we should consider now is how to deal with snow disasters, not fighting."

"That's right." Shen Yu'an nodded heavily, "I predict that there will be heavy snowfall in a short time. If you move your army north at this time, you may be trapped in the heavy snow on the way. At that time, the food and grass cannot be transported, and you will be in a dilemma. It will be troublesome."

"Yeah, it's a good thing that Yu'an is here." Ji Xun said as he dragged Shen Yu's jade hand, holding it in his palm like a treasure, "My husband originally planned to go north after I came back to visit you, and took it all at once. Capital, it seems that this plan has to be postponed."

"Yeah, it really has to be postponed." Shen Yu'an agreed, "It's cheaper for Wei Xuanyuan, and he has a chance to breathe.'
When Wei Xuanyuan was mentioned, Ji Xun remembered something, took out a letter and spread it out for Shen Yuan to read.

"It was written by sister Jiang Yu'an. She and Aqin still had shadows and couldn't find the mother Gu. In desperation, they "switched the beam" and brought the father out of the palace. Now they are on their way to Lingzhou. '

After reading the letter, Shen Yuan's eyes were full of surprises, "Stay away from the mother's Gu Zi Gu and it will also lose effect, so this is really a good way to save the father."

After finishing speaking, Shen Yuyan squinted her apricot eyes and stared at her husband with a slight smile, "Father is blessed, he will soon be able to hug his grandson, hee hee."

"You girl~~" Ji Xun pampered Shen Yu'an's pink cheeks, his heart was soft.

I feel that this girl is like a ball of fire, which can illuminate and warm others no matter where she goes, making people full of hope and light.He felt it was worth it to be with her for the rest of his life.

After talking about this, the two returned to the matter of the snow disaster.

"Husband, how do you think this snow disaster should be dealt with?" Shen Yuan looked up at Ji Xun with a pretty face and smiled, "The government must issue a notice to inform them of the seriousness of the snow disaster and ask them to prepare supplies."

Ji Xun thought for a while and replied, "Prepare rice and firewood, and the house must be reinforced to prevent it from being crushed by the snow~~ What else can I add?"
"No, Ah Xun said it very comprehensively." Shen Yu'an laughed and praised, "It's worthy of living in the country, and I know everything about these things."

Ji Xun gently rubbed the melon seeds on Shen Yu'an's little head, and couldn't help showing worry in his eyes.

"I don't know how long this heavy snow will last. Is there enough rice~~" The army of millions, it is impossible to let them drink the northwest wind.

"Enough is enough." Shen Yu'an squeezed her husband's perfectly curved chin, and said with a relaxed expression, "Your wife has nothing else, and I have saved a lot of rice in my portable space, which is enough to provide the military camp through this disaster year Ah Xun, don't worry."

After finishing speaking, he added, "But Ah Xun, there is no need to buy food, but the money is still not saved. We have to spend a sum of money to buy thick cotton clothes for the soldiers. What if Wei Xuanyuan sends troops south to launch a surprise attack? If the soldiers How can they fight without even clothes?"

"You are worthy of being your husband's virtuous housemate. You have considered all issues thoroughly." Ji Xun was embarrassed again after boasting, "How can there be time to make cotton-padded clothes for so many soldiers?"

"Don't worry, Ah Xun, I have a solution."

"You have a solution? What can you do?" Ji Xun was very surprised.

"It's very easy, we don't need to buy new ones." Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows, "As long as we send more people out and set up high-priced old cotton-padded clothes in every city and town, wouldn't we be able to buy them all soon?"

As soon as Shen Yuan's words came out, Ji Xun couldn't help pulling her into his arms, rubbing her little head and expressing his sincere emotion.

"Your idea is really perfect, I can't help my husband not to admire it."
"How is it? Can you be your husband's military advisor? Hee hee."

"Do you even need to ask? You already are."

"Haha, that's a great honor." After laughing, Shen Yuan said again, "Then Ah Xun will send someone to build a strong granary for the soldiers' food, and I'll send it over.

"But so much food has to be sent out from the space, wouldn't it be tiring?" Ji Xun looked worried. He only saw Shen Yu'an carrying all kinds of small things out of the portable space. How many times would she have to travel to get so much food? Take it out?
"Don't worry, Ah Xun, my portable space is more powerful than you imagined, and you will know when I let you see it."

"Okay, my husband is waiting~~ The food is getting cold while I'm talking, so my husband will cook it for you again." After Ji Xun finished speaking, he put the food on the table into a food box, and went to the kitchen with an umbrella.

After lunch, Ji Xun went to the yamen to find Sun Deming and told him about the snow disaster in detail.

Within two days, notices were posted everywhere in cities, towns, and villages in Lingzhou and Tongzhou, calling on everyone to prepare rice, firewood, and strengthen houses due to the volcanic eruption in the southern part of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

For a while, every household was busy, cutting firewood and cutting trees, harvesting all the vegetables in the field and storing them well, and buying rice grains for those who had spare money, making preparations for disaster prevention and frost resistance.

On the instructions of Ji Xun, the military camp dispatched tens of thousands of people to the villages and towns on horseback to buy old padded jackets. A few dozen pieces per person would be enough for the soldiers to wear.

However, in just ten days, this problem was resolved.

Capital, Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wei Xuanyuan was discussing with Prime Minister Zhou in the study, and someone from outside came to report.

"Master Prime Minister, a letter from Luozhou."

"Go on." Zhou Qian took the letter, sent the servants back, and handed the letter to Wei Xuanyuan.

After reading the letter, Wei Xuanyuan slapped the table excitedly.

"God help me too, God help me too!!"

"What's the happy event?" Zhou Qian was puzzled, he had never seen Wei Xuanyuan so excited.

"Look for yourself." Wei Xuanyuan handed the letter to Zhou Qian.

Zhou Qian stood up with faith.

"Sudden snowstorm in the south, the snow was five or six feet deep, countless houses were crushed, there was no food, no firewood, homeless, countless refugees froze to death
"The King of the Night has not sent his army northward for a long time. It must be because of insufficient food and grass." Wei Xuanyuan paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and couldn't help laughing, "Now that there is another snowstorm like this, let's see what he uses to feed so many soldiers and refugees. Ha ha ha ha!"

Zhou Qian was also very excited after reading the letter.

"Isn't it? More than 150 million soldiers can't be full by drinking the northwest wind. It depends on how long they can last."

"That's right." Wei Xuanyuan said proudly, "It seems that General Zhu will surely win a big victory, we are just waiting for the good news."
