Chapter 71 Chapter 071: Mustard Seed Space (please vote for recommendation)

After the Shen clan members returned, Cheng Yurong arranged for more than a dozen servants to clean up the place.

Shen Zhiyuan held Ruan Ruan in his arms and took her back to the pine garden.

When there are no outsiders, he walks alone.

Now that he is a normal person, he can still sit in a wheelchair.

Shen Zhiqing and his brothers also followed.

Anyway, I got some free time in the afternoon and got together to play.

A few years ago, if they had nothing to do, they would go climbing to the Fairy Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing. This was a traditional activity during the Double Ninth Festival.

But in the past few years, things have happened to my family one after another, and I haven't been there for five years.

My sister is still young this year and is not suitable for going to the mountains.

……

The Double Ninth Festival passed and it rained lightly for three days and two nights.

A cold autumn rain.

Three autumn rains took away the last trace of warmth in the capital, and coldness followed. Everyone put on three thick clothes.

"It seems to be getting cold very fast this year. Fortunately, I gave the servants a set of winter clothes first, otherwise they would have been freezing today."

Cheng Yurong looked at the gray sky and was in a bad mood.

"Madam, this kind of weather is really scary. I remember more than 20 years ago, one year winter started very early and it was very cold.

In the coldest month of winter, even the southernmost towns experienced heavy snow and hail for several days, freezing many people to death. "

Aunt Zhou frowned, remembering that when she was a few years old, she was still living in the south. Because her parents died of illness, she was sold to Ren Yazi by her relatives and became a slave from then on.

That year, it was also because of the snowstorm in the south that year that she was sold to a wealthy family and she was able to survive.

And that relative's whole family froze to death.

This is what is called retribution!
And she is living a good life now. She came to the capital in the third year of her prostitution and was lucky enough to meet his wife. Later, she recovered her status at the age of twenty and married Dr. Zhou and gave birth to a son.

"Well, let's buy more charcoal, warm clothes, quilts and food this year to avoid a real snow disaster."

Cheng Yurong couldn't help but worry.

If there is a severe snowstorm in the south this year, it will not be much better in the north.

Seven-month-old Ruan Ruan was playing with a dozen small toys on the Luohan bed, which her brothers bought for her. There was also a box of toys placed in her side room.

Hearing the words "South" and "Snowstorm", Ruan Ruan's mind suddenly flashed through several fragments of the novel, which seemed to mention the "Snowstorm in the South". This freezing disaster was the worst in a century, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths.

Heavy snow seals the mountains, and dripping water turns into ice.

The common people did not prepare so much clothing, food and firewood to keep out the cold, and most of them froze to death.

"Hey... Pretty, pretty, Sisi..." Ruan Ruan waved her little hand and called to Cheng Yurong.

[Mother, we need to prepare more winter clothing, food, charcoal and firewood. We need a lot of it. Oh, forget it, use the merit gold from my mall system to exchange it! Cheap. 】

[By the way, mother, the weather started to get colder in the twelfth lunar month in the south. Heavy snow closed the mountains and dripping water turned into ice, causing hundreds of thousands of people to freeze to death. 】

[This time, early prevention should be able to reduce the number of casualties. Mom, why don’t we open a grain and oil store? The rice flour oil in my mall system is very cheap. 】

"???" Cheng Yurong was stunned and her pupils shrank suddenly.

Hundreds of thousands of people froze to death?

When she thought of that horrific scene, she trembled all over.

She was born into a wealthy family and has never experienced a life of hunger and cold, but she can still understand the feelings of ordinary people, so she can persist in doing good deeds without asking for anything in return.

It is enough to do your best and have a clear conscience.

After pondering for a long time, Cheng Yurong thought that it was a good thing that her daughter proposed opening a grain and oil store. She immediately went to Lao Er to discuss the matter and told him about the freezing disaster that would occur in the south.

When Shen Hong came back in the evening and learned about the incident, he discussed with his family that Shen Zhiqing would take the supplies to the south to open a grain and oil store and sell them to ordinary people at the lowest price.

When December comes, we will donate hundreds of thousands of kilograms of food.

……

After waiting for a month, Ruan Ruan's original level five will finally be upgraded to level six.

Because ten million kilograms of merit has been accumulated enough, there will be eight to nine million in August, and more than one million is the merit she earned from the cause and effect of selling a dozen Taoist talismans.

Almost a dozen Taoist talismans were all seeking children. Ever since Mrs. Tan and her third aunt became pregnant, many ladies in the aristocratic circle in the capital learned that the two of them had embraced Ruan Ruan, the virgin who gave birth to a child, and got a child-seeking talisman. Later, when she became pregnant, many people came over and asked to hold Ruan Ruan in their arms, and to buy a begging letter.

Cheng Yurong was annoyed by the fuss, so she asked Ruan Ruan to sell the child-seeking charm.

Ruan Ruan also thinks that selling the child-seeking talisman is better than being hugged by strangers all day long.

Although she doesn't care about life and has no mysophobia, she can't bear to have her hair pulled out.

Everyone touched her beautiful black hair, and everyone said they wanted to have a cute and handsome girl like her.

After the mall system reaches level six, you will get a chance to draw a lucky draw.

This time Ruan Ruan was lucky and drew a Hetian jade ring. This is a mustard space that can store millions of kilograms of items.

She thought that this mustard space was just right for her second brother to bring supplies to the south.

……

I don’t know what’s going on, but it’s only been half a month since those ladies returned home with the child-seeking charms, and all of them are pregnant.

Ruan Ruan was shocked.

Could it be that he really gave birth to a virgin?

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the child-seeking talisman to make someone pregnant within half a month!

Since Shen Zhiqing was going to bring hundreds of thousands of grain to the south to open a grain and oil store and provide disaster relief, Ruan Ruan only had a few dozen merit gold left in the system space. Cheng Yurong and the five Shen brothers worked hard to do good deeds.

Go to the suburbs to give porridge, give soup and medicine to free clinics,
Even if it is helping an old lady cross the road, giving alms to beggars, giving medicine to save people...

Whatever they can do, they try to do it themselves.

After Ruan Ruan's name as the virgin who gave birth to children was announced, not only the ladies from the capital came to the general's mansion to buy child-seeking charms, but also from several nearby prefectures, people began to come to the general's mansion to buy child-seeking charms.

The news spread wider and wider.

In order to be able to hold Ruan Ruan in their arms, the ladies each bought several hundred taels of gifts and sent them to the general's mansion.

Seeing the gift of a few hundred taels, Ruan Ruan reluctantly had to be hugged and patted on the head by the ladies in turn.

One month later…

The merit gold has been saved to more than two million, thanks to Ruan Ruan selling more than fifty child-seeking charms, otherwise I don't know when I can buy cheap food.

Two kilograms of ordinary rice requires one merit gold. If you exchange it for two million kilograms, you will spend one million merit gold.

One piece of cotton cloth costs three merit gold, and 150,000 pieces of cotton cloth requires 450,000 merit gold.

A five-pound quilt costs five merit gold, and a hundred thousand quilts cost five hundred thousand merit gold.

A total of 1.95 million merit gold was spent, and the remaining 100,000 merit gold was exchanged for medicinal materials to treat wind and cold, a total of 10,000 copies.

There is no shortage of firewood and charcoal in the south. Shen Zhiqing will buy a lot of firewood and charcoal when he goes to the south, so he goes out with a thousand taels of silver.

Shen Zhiqing handed over the cake shop to Shen Zhiyu and Shen Zhijie to help take care of it, while he used the mustard space to take away two million kilograms of grain from the suburbs.

There were also 100,000 pieces of cotton cloth, 100,000 five-pound quilts and other items, which were put on the big ship and headed south.

After this trip, I will probably not return to the capital until the end of December.
