After the porcelain basin became fine, I was sent to the wild to do infrastructure construction

"Second Madam, this is a clever deed of sale, and it has been registered in the official office."

Mai Dong respectfully handed over a contract to Xia Ning. When he bought Yang Qiaoxin, because he had to rush out of the city, he didn't have time to go through the relevant procedures.

After that, it was delayed because of other things, until recently there was no work in the village, and the master asked him to go to the town to inquire about the news, and then he took care of the matter by the way.

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you." Xia Ning took the deed of sale and put it in her carry-on bag. In fact, she put it in the space of the porcelain basin. No matter how well hidden it is outside, it is not as safe as the space of the porcelain basin.

"It's what the little ones should do." Mai Dong's attitude became more and more humble. In his heart, Miss Xia is his mistress and his master's wife, and he should be as loyal and respectful to her as he is to his master.

Even though people in the village call her 'Teacher Xia', 'Miss Xia', or 'Minister Xia', there is always only one title for him, which is why he always insists on calling her 'Second Lady'.

"Go and wash up, dinner is coming soon." Xia Ning explained, and in the afternoon, he and Hu Zi accompanied him and drove to the town to inquire about news. It was not easy to run around in such a cold day.

After dinner, the members of the Song family were not in a hurry to leave the table, but continued to sit steadily in their seats, wanting to hear the news of Mai Dong's inquiry today.

Everything in Baiyun Village is good, but it is too remote. It is the farthest village from the surrounding villages to Pingsha Town. Everything that happened was unknown.

As a last resort, they decided to go out to inquire about the outside world after a while, so as not to know about any major event, which would be very disadvantageous for them, because they would lose time to take the initiative and prepare.

"Mai Dong, what's going on outside?" Song Shiyao asked first, sitting in the upper seat.

Hearing the sound, Mai Dong's expression suddenly sank, "General, I'm afraid it's going to be bad outside."

"How do you say that? What happened?"

Song Shiyao frowned. He was just asking the last question as usual, but he didn't expect that there would be a situation.

"." Everyone in the room sat upright in an instant, waiting for the next sentence with solemn expressions.

Mai Dong truthfully reported, "After entering the town today, I found that many shops on the street were closed, and the closed shops were basically grain and oil shops, and some small restaurants were also closed.

I went to the town a few times before, and I saw a lot of small vendors on the street, but today they disappeared. The whole town was deserted, so I specifically asked the surrounding shops.

It is said that there was a half-month blizzard in Shanzhou, which caused a serious shortage of food and medicinal materials in the entire prefecture, so that our food was bought by wealthy households in Shanzhou.

But Cangshan Town didn’t have much food at all, and it was short of food in no time, so the grain shops in the town had to be closed. In addition, I also heard that due to the drought in Shuzhou, there was also a serious shortage of food . "

"My God!"

"My God~ Why is it so serious?"

"Blizzard in the next half month? Isn't the situation of ordinary people very bad?"

"Then what's the situation in other counties and towns in our prefecture? Has the food been sold out?"

"Hey, the troubles in this world are really ups and downs~"

"Shuzhou has been in drought for more than half a year, and there is still no movement from above?"

"What are those dog officials doing for food? Could it be that they just watched the common people die miserably?"

Song Shiyao raised his hand to signal, "Okay, calm down first, what's the use of being angry here? Why don't we discuss what we should do next."

Song Shaoqin said slowly, "I guess there is already a food crisis outside, and even now there are more and more refugees on the road. Before that, many refugees went to Ningzhou and the capital to escape, and the more refugees on the road, the easier it is to breed. question.

I think Ningzhou might not open the city gates to accept those refugees at all, so if I am not wrong, the refugees who fled later may divert to Nanzhou halfway. After all, compared with other cities, Nanzhou is poorer and more remote. , and there is no fatal problem. "

"Oh! Don't say it's really possible." Song Muyao slapped his thigh fiercely.

Song Anbang also analyzed, "Second brother is right, Shanzhou is next to our Nanzhou, and when we reach the point of food shortage, the people will definitely flee here, and the weather is so bad, how can ordinary people survive it? ? I think the situation is going to be very bad."

There has always been a natural and man-made disaster, and the people who suffer the most are the common people.

The conditions in Shanzhou are just better than those in Nanzhou. A few months ago, there were incidents of plague and robbery, and now there is a rare blizzard. I am afraid that many people's lives are very difficult, right?
To the south of Nanzhou is the rebellious Guanzhou. Further south of Guanzhou is the rich Ningzhou, and beyond that is the drought-stricken Shuzhou.

According to the route, the first choice for the refugees in Shanzhou must be Nanzhou City, and the people in Guanzhou who want to avoid the military disaster can either go south to Ningzhou or go south to Nanzhou.

As for the refugees from Shu Prefecture, they may also come straight to Nanman. In short, if the problems in other prefectures are not resolved or alleviated, then in the new year, the entire Nanman land may welcome refugees from major prefectures. .

"." Hearing this, the female relatives couldn't help but sigh, especially for the ordinary people who were affected by the disaster.

Those rich and well-connected families may still be able to survive, but how can ordinary or even poor people sustain it?
It's been snowing for half a month in Shanzhou, and they've only received the news now, and they don't know how many people have died because of it? !

"Then shall we also stock up on some food?"

Xu Wanqing suddenly said, she is in charge of the kitchen now, the Song family is not short of food, because of Xiao Ning's presence, their daily food is pretty good.

But now that this happened, she felt a little uneasy. She didn't know the situation in Xiao Ning's hometown, let alone whether she could continue to provide food and other materials.

Now that food has started to run out outside, she is worried that they will have no food to eat in the future. After all, Xiao Ning's support and food shortage in real life are two different things, so she has to make more plans just in case.

Song Shiyao said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid you can't buy food even if you want to."

Not to mention how much food stock there is in the counties and towns, even in today's world, the price of this food may have already risen to sky-high prices, and ordinary people simply cannot afford it.
