Chapter 496 Ancient Farmer (8)

Feng Ling and Qin Yi have been practicing continuously during this time, and finally before the disaster, Feng Ling drew hundreds of meson talismans.

Most of the talismans contain food, and there are also some medicinal materials, pills, cotton-padded clothes and trousers, charcoal, knives, bows and arrows, edible salt, water and other materials.

As long as Feng Ling could think of it, she put it all in.

Moreover, Qin Shouren borrowed 500 taels of silver from Qin Shouli for this, and bought them for food and other supplies.

Qin Shouli had always respected Qin Shouren, and he knew that Qin Shouren was in order to deal with the disaster, so he readily borrowed it.

The hundreds of meson talismans were filled to the brim by Feng Ling. With so many supplies, Feng Ling felt a little more at ease.

That day, Feng Ling, Qin Shouren, and Qin Yi were eating, and Qin Shouren suddenly said to Qin Yi: "The crops in this field are all dying of drought, and the villagers plan to cut the wheat the day after tomorrow. At least there will be some food."

Qin Yi nodded and said, "It's best to let them mow today. Tomorrow is the day when the disaster will start. I'm afraid there will be locust plagues."

Qin Shouren thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell them after dinner."

After eating, Qin Yi said to Feng Ling: "Our family also started harvesting wheat today, so we won't go hunting."

Feng Ling hurriedly said, "Then I will help too."

Qin Yi smiled gently, "No, the weather is hot, you should rest at home."

Feng Ling nodded and said, "Then I will continue to practice."

Qin Yi smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Qin Yi's eyes became more and more gentle, and Feng Ling looked a little hot, thinking that the principal is really a gentle person.

Qin Shouren made an agreement with the people who bought the land that this season's grain will belong to their family, and after harvesting the grain, the land has nothing to do with their family.

The land was sold, obviously cheating people, so when Qin Yi asked Qin Shouli to find someone, Qin Shouli also wanted to find a rich family who could afford a high price, but Qin Yi did not agree, but asked Qin Shouli to find those rich and unkind businessmen .

The rich businessman suppressed the price so hard that he gave less than one tael of silver per acre of land. Qin Yi deliberately hesitated for a few days. The rich businessman was afraid that the good deal would be gone, so he gave two hundred coins more if he had no acre of land. Qin Yi immediately agreed.

The Qin family has a lot of land, so Qin Shouren went to the village to hire people to harvest the wheat.

The people in the village have not lost Zeng Qinyi's glory these days, and if they don't give money, they will do it.

Qin Shouren still insisted that those who work today will be given [-] Wen. After hearing about it, many people from neighboring villages also came to help with the work.

Feng Ling didn't cultivate either, and all the women in the village came to work for their family, so Feng Ling gathered half of the girls in the village and started cooking.

There were a lot of people, so Feng Ling got some pork out of the meson talisman, and steamed big white flour steamed buns
Hundreds of people helped to harvest the grain, and within half a day, the grain was harvested, and even the grains were threshed before returning home.

The reduction in grain production is indeed severe. Now the price of grain has tripled compared to a month ago. In the past, one acre of land could fetch two stones of grain, but now there is not one stone per mu of land.

Those who came to help with the work were full of gratitude when they saw that the host had prepared lunch.

Because there were too many people, Feng Ling stipulated that each person had five big steamed buns, half a plate of pickles, and a bowl of vegetable soup, and there was meat in the vegetable soup.

Many people are so satisfied that they are even reluctant to eat it, and are going to take it home for their wives and children.

Qin Shouren felt that Fengling, the daughter-in-law, was a bit extravagant.

Qin Yi immediately defended: "Father, it was my son who asked Feng Ling to do this."

Qin Shouren was puzzled, "You asked her to do this?"

Qin Yi nodded.

Qin Shouren "Why?"

Qin Yi immediately said: "Father, think about it, my mother can give me a dream to warn me, how many blessings our family has accumulated, and I will accumulate blessings for our family again."

As soon as Qin Shouren heard it made sense, the Qin family couldn't afford the little food anyway, and immediately said: "Well, it makes sense, we are going to escape soon, the road is full of dangers, we should accumulate blessings, we should accumulate blessing."

This matter was resolved by Qin Yi in such an understatement.

And Feng Ling didn't know about it yet.

Qin Yi looked tenderly at Feng Ling, who was distributing steamed buns to poor families in the distance, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Feng Ling not only distributed steamed buns to these people, but also told them that it is best to harvest the wheat today, otherwise the reduction in production will be even worse.

Feng Ling also couldn't say: There might be a plague of locusts tomorrow, after all, there is no way to explain this.

Many people remember it in their hearts, and of course some people don't believe it.
