Bailuyuan, I am Bai Xiaowen

Chapter 91 Food
Even though it was daytime, you could still see the firelight rising into the sky.

"Blind Liu is committing an evil act."

So many wheat fields were burned, making life even more difficult.

For more than two months, some people in the city have begun to lack food.

The Zhensong Army burned the wheat fields to put more pressure on the city.

Not only physically, but also mentally tortured.

Although there was no large-scale war.

From time to time, Blind Liu would send thousands of people to harass and investigate the situation, to see if the defenders in the provincial capital still had the ability to fight.What you get every time is not the result you want.

More than half a month has passed.

The city is almost out of food.

The food of the common people has run out.

There is not much food in the army.

Basically one meal a day.

Started pulling at the bark and grass roots.

But this is a provincial capital, and there is not enough bark, grass, or roots to eat.

There are also some animals, mice.

All of them were hungry, sallow and thin.

Several granaries in the provincial capital all gave priority to supplying the army.

According to the progress, the siege lasted for eight months, but now it has only been four months and it is already running out of food.

Occasionally, people starve to death.

Bai Xiaowen's space contains tens of thousands of kilograms of grain and hundreds of sacks.

But compared with the large base of people in the provincial capital, these grains are simply not enough.

Bai Xiaowen can only supply the people he knows first.

The hospital is okay, there are only some old patients, there are no new wounded.

The Zhensong Army will no longer attack the provincial capital.

The doctors in the church are relatively not that busy.

Bai Xiaowen went to his cousin's house.

Fortunately, my cousin's house was not destroyed by bombs.

"Xiaowen, I haven't seen you for a long time. Come, let's eat first."

Take Bai Xiaowen in.

My cousin's family is fairly well off, and they eat relatively sparingly, and they still have food.

Nowadays, grain is no longer sold in the provincial capital. Those who have grain stores at home are lucky, but those who don’t can only drink some gruel from some porridge sheds. They are very hungry, but at least they are still alive.

Bai Xiaowen directly took out two hundred kilograms of white noodles from the space.

The siege has only lasted four months, and these grains are enough for my cousin's family.

I was very surprised to see these foods.

"Cousin, where did you get all this food?"

Nowadays, it is impossible to get food in the provincial capital.

Bai Xiaowen briefly talked about his departure from the city.

"The Zhensong Army has arrived at Yuanshang? Xiaowen, are Jiaxuan and the others okay?"

The reputation of Zhensong Army was not good, and my cousin's family was very worried about the situation at home.

"It's okay. When I came over, the people from the Song Army had already left Yuanshang."

There were rumors of various misdeeds of the Zhensong Army, and the most common ones were about how they abused somewhat pretty women.

The original Zhensong Army did just that.

Bai Xiaowen stayed at his cousin's house again.

Gave something.

There are now several porridge spots in the provincial capital.

The next day I went to see Xia Lu Zhaohai again.

There were only a few people he knew in the provincial capital, including his classmates.

Lu Zhaohai came over and said, "Take these two steamed buns."

"What about you?"

"There are some in the army. I've eaten them all, and you should eat one too."

Bai Xiaowen waved his hand, "I don't want it anymore, I don't lack food."

Bai Xiaowen has a lot of food.

But he didn't take it out at this time.

Although people are beginning to starve to death in the provincial capital, they are still very few. We don’t want to take them out at this time or later.

He doesn't know how long the siege will last. He has taken out the food now, but there is not enough to eat at all.If you eat sparingly, you can feed everyone you know.Lu Zhaohai is now in the army.Ordinary people have nothing to eat, but the army still has some rations for the time being.

"Don't crowd, don't crowd, there is something for everyone. Don't worry, everyone has a share."

"Let let, let let."

"They all have a share."

This is a soup kitchen.

It sounds like porridge, but in fact there are not even a few grains of rice in it.

Lu Zhaohai was also lining up inside.

Looking at him, Bai Xiaowen knew that even the army might not have much food.

I made a bowl of wild vegetable soup and sat on the street to eat it.

"Zhaohai."

"Why are you here?"

"You're a big man, you may not even be hungry for steamed buns, so just eat this. If your health gets bad, Uncle Zilin will be worried to death."

He took out some food from the space.

"Bai Xiaowen, where did you get this food?"

"Don't worry about it now, just eat what you have. Don't take out any more things from the army. I won't be hungry."

It has only been four months since the siege, and the situation in the provincial capital is already so bad.

The common people in the provincial capital had little to eat, but the rich lived reasonably well.

They have a lot of food in stock and can even feed their families for several lifetimes.

The people who come to the soup kitchen here are all the lowest level people in the provincial capital.

After eating these relief supplies, they can barely survive.

"Zhaohai, follow me to a place."

Take him to a dilapidated factory building.

Make the space a place for storing food.

There are hundreds of sacks and tens of thousands of kilograms of grain here.

"This is all food."

"Yes, there is some grain hidden here. There is a lot of grain, but it is not enough for the whole city to eat. So I can't tell anyone. Only you know. Some of the grain here can be used for porridge every day.

Let’s look at arranging part of it as military rations. "

The top officials in Chang'an City are all good officials. At this critical moment, no one would dare to embezzle food.

Bai Xiaowen had an idea to go to some wealthy households in Chang'an City and use their space capabilities to produce some food.

After opening the hole, I saw the pile of food.Lu Zhaohai was stunned.

"You are so awesome. These grains are kept close to the elderly, children and sick people in the church."

It's just a siege. There is no large-scale war at this time, so it doesn't matter if the soldiers eat less.

Lu Zhaohai also stared blankly, shocked when he hid so much food in the provincial capital.

Even purchasing these grains would cost a lot of money.

Bai Xiaowen was going to personally visit some large households in the provincial capital.

The big households must have extra food.

Big households have the habit of hoarding food.

At night, Bai Xiaowen targeted several companies.

They are all big households in Chang'an City.

The kind of big business that doesn't have a good reputation.

Big households with a good reputation have already started giving out porridge.

With spatial ability, Bai Xiaowen moves very conveniently.

I found one and jumped right in.

Arriving at the warehouse of this large company.

The lock above is useless to Bai Xiaowen.

It opened immediately.

Sure enough, there was a lot of food hidden inside.

There is much more food than Bai Xiaowen's own space.

Get started now.

Hundreds more sacks were packed into the space.

There is enough food in the provincial capital.

For an eight-month siege of the city, there would definitely be enough food for eight months, but all that food was in the hands of a few people.

Get the next one first, and then go to other big households when they run out of food.
