Chapter 62: Isn't this still a fish pond?
In fact, Gu Yuqi already had an idea in her heart, and she was afraid that she didn't have enough banknotes on her body. Now Liang Huaiyu's shot has helped her solve a big problem in front of her.
Liang Huaiyu got the house deed, and they left the inn in the afternoon and moved to the big house. The furniture in the house is complete, but it is very similar to a modern hotel-style apartment. So what Gu Yuqi and the others want to buy are just bedding.
Zhang Lan and the others all farmed in the countryside, and suddenly entered such a big house. Suddenly, it was as if Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, and she felt novel about everything. It turns out that the rich people grow flowers instead of vegetables! Pieces of spring flowers bloom, that is called a splendor. Rich people still open fish ponds in their yards!
The appearance of this group of people amused Bai Fu and the other maids with great joy, Dai Mei is a flexible child, and explained to them all the way. Those are not fish ponds, but lotus ponds. A man stared at them and said, "There are no fish in them?"
Dai Mei replied, "Naturally they keep fish, they are all koi."
Then the man immediately said, "Isn't that still a fish pond?"
Being robbed by him like this, Dai Mei also felt that she was so powerless... She could only laugh for a while, and the other maids were even more laughing.
The man was still scratching his head, not knowing what he had said wrong, these beautiful girls were all looking at him and smiling, but their faces were red with embarrassment.
However, their conversation reminded Gu Yuqi that she was still worried about food in the future, and there was going to be a plague outside. Hairy lotus pond! fish culture! Koi can only be seen, but it is better to raise some fish that can actually be eaten! There are also those flowers, now the petals have fallen to the ground under the heavy rain, and they are good for fart, so pull them out! Plant vegetables!
Zhang Lan brought back all the things Gu Yuqi wanted with his brothers. He was literate, so when he handed over the recovered money to Gu Yuqi, he also wrote down the accounts and handed them over to Gu Yuqi. It was a pleasure to call Gu Yuqi. She originally wanted to test Zhang Lan and the others, but suddenly taking so much money would be greedy for ink, so she asked Xia He to follow them secretly. The number reported by Xia He back is exactly the same as Zhang Lan's account. These people still live up to her expectations and are credible.
Gu Yuqi asked them to put things aside. She called them all over, "I have something I want to tell you." She said sternly.
"Just ask the young lady to say it." Zhang Lan cupped his hands and said.
"The rain will cause great suffering." Gu Yuqi thought for a while, and then briefly explained what was going to happen in the future in a very tactful language. Although she said it simply, it made Zhang Lan and others stunned. Eye. After Gu Yuqi finished speaking, Zhang Lan and the others were all dumbfounded.
It was Zhang Lan who first came back to his senses, "Little Miss, how dare you to know?" After all, he has read books, he has some knowledge, and he is not blindly obedient, but they are all peasants, so looking at this astronomical phenomenon, I feel What Gu Yuqi said may really be inseparable, at least the rain won't stop for a short time.
"I know by looking at the sky." Gu Yuqi rolled her eyes. Decided to fool the past. She couldn't possibly tell the truth to these people.
This... Gu Yuqi's words made these men stunned. The young lady in front of her also understands martial arts. She can also watch the sky and predict the future!
"If what the young lady said will happen, then our relatives..." One of the men was the first to react and said in a voiceless voice.
"I called you here because of this matter. Since you are with me, I will not let your family go." Gu Yuqi pondered for a moment and said, "It is impossible to live in the mountains, such a heavy rain is likely to cause mudslides and mountains. Landslide. Tell me how many people in your family are."
Although these people don't understand what mudslides and landslides are, they intuitively sound intimidating rhythms. Immediately, he told Gu Yuqi about the situation in his home.
Gu Yuqi asked Runying to find a pen and paper in a hurry, and then counted the number of people. Fortunately, these people's families are simple, some only have an old father, and some have only an old mother. If this is the case, there are still more than 20 people.
Gu Yuqi thought for a moment, "You can also see this house, there are three entrances and three exits, which is enough for your family to live here temporarily. It's getting late, and tomorrow morning I will ask Zhao Wu to take you back to pick up everyone in the family. Come here, but I am not here to open a shantang, and it is impossible to support your family for you for free. So if they come, they must obey my orders. They rushed to the street. As long as they live in my yard, I will keep them safe, but after they go out, I can't guarantee what will happen."
Gu Yuqi's remarks used both grace and power to hit the point, and the ten men nodded in agreement.
The problem of eating for more than 40 people... After Gu Yuqi finished speaking, she also felt a headache. But what she wants is the absolute loyalty of these people to her in the future, so it is inevitable to spend some thought now. Dai Mei and the others have spent several years nurturing them.
Moreover, after the plague, she will also leave here to go to Kuizhou. The yard needs to be taken care of, and those old people, women and children can just stay here to take care of the house for her.
With these people in hand, are you still afraid that Zhang Lan and the others will not give up following her?
Gu Yuqi instructed Zhang Lan and the others to tidy up the outermost yard, and let them discuss how to divide the yard for living. Zhang Lan is really good, and this matter will be done properly soon. The house in the middle was assigned to the guards, and she and Liang Huaiyu lived on the innermost floor with the maids.
Gu Yuqi looked at the fences and felt that they were not high enough, so she called Zhao Wu again and taught them how to raise the yard by using the iron wire and iron rods that Zhang Lan and the others bought, following the appearance of modern barbed wire. The barbed wire will make a sound when someone moves it.
After the plague, there will inevitably be mob riots in Jiangxia city, and there will definitely be looting, Gu Yuqi has to think about these in advance.
The next day, Zhao Wu took Zhang Lan and the others to pick them up, while Gu Yuqi directed the remaining guards to pull out all the flowers and plants in the garden, which made Liang Huaiyu very puzzled.
"Those flowers and plants are good, why do you want to pull them out?" She couldn't help but asked in awe as she watched her daughter turn a garden into a bare open space.
"Flowers can't be eaten, so naturally they are used to grow vegetables." Gu Yuqi proudly shook the rapeseed in her hand and smiled. She was still worried that she had no place to grow rapeseed, so Liang Huaiyu bought a big house with two gardens.
Uh... Now even Liang Huaiyu is speechless. A good young lady of Hou's mansion is now planting vegetables in her garden with a group of guards. If this kind of thing spreads to the capital, I'm afraid people will laugh at her.
According to the instructions of taking care of Yuqi, Chun Xing went to the pharmacy on the street and bought a lot of herbs. Among them, she mainly searched for dead leaves. Chun Xing felt that she was about to move all the herb shops in Jiangxia City back home...
Runying went to the ferry with her master as instructed to take care of Yuqi to find out what was in the goods that could not cross the river.
Bai Fu went to buy a large group of chickens, ducks and geese back, and raised them in the shed that Gu Yuqi asked the guards to build. Xia He scoured the rice and noodle shops in Jiangxia City and bought a lot of white rice, flour, and oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
Liang Huaiyu also wanted to help, but was pushed aside by Gu Yuqi. She pretended to let her be a supervisor, but in fact she wanted her to rest. She could only watch her daughter put this beautiful mansion in the house for two days. In time, it became a big farm...
Gu Yuqi's worries are not fake. In a few days, let alone rice noodles in Jiangxia City, even firewood can't be found for sale! So she is just planning ahead. She has to feed more than 40 people in this house, and she has to take them through the turbulent floods and plagues safely. This pressure is not small. If it weren't for the limited space, Gu Yuqi was going to get some pigs back to raise them.
Zhang Lan took the old people, women and children from the mountain village to settle in the outer courtyard. Gu Yuqi set the rules for them, and they had to work by themselves when they lived here. Fortunately, they were all villagers, so they were all about growing vegetables, raising fish, and raising poultry. She is very good. Gu Yuqi is willing to let them live in such a beautiful house. They all feel that it is a blessing from their previous life. Everyone has put forth 120,000 points of enthusiasm and energy to take care of the vegetables in the two large gardens. The land, vegetable fields and poultry have been managed by special people, and Gu Yuqi can be considered relieved. These people from the capital are really smeared when they encounter farm work.
Gu Yuqi also asked Zhao Wu to take time every day to teach Zhang Lan's gang how to practice martial arts.
This made Zhao Wule blossom. He hadn't trained soldiers for a long time, but now he got it. On the first day, he gave Zhang Lan and the others to the crying father and mother of the training. However, although Zhang Lan and the others were as tired as dogs, none of them were tired. They all gritted their teeth and persevered, especially Zhang Lan. They had all seen the abilities of Zhao Wu and Gu Yuqi, and they all felt that they had followed suit. Such a young lady, if she doesn't have any skills, how can she get the kindness of others, so she is full of energy and Zhao Wuxue.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. It was as if God had torn open a hole in the sky. The rain poured down from the sky. After ten days in a row, Gu Yuqi received news from outside that the lower reaches of Hengjiang Jiangxia City. It's over!
In the capital, 400 miles of urgent reports, 800 miles of urgent reports, spread into the palace like snowflakes, and the heavy rain did not stop. The two rivers, Hengjiang and Hunjiang, which have nurtured countless people along the river, shared the gentle normality of the past. , became terrifying.
Floods flooded everywhere, dykes burst everywhere, countless fertile fields were engulfed by the flood, and countless people were killed and displaced.
People's hearts are like this gloomy weather, heavy without a trace of light.
Yun Ke's carriage quietly left the capital in the early morning and headed to Jiangxia. Pool break around.
He leaned on the soft cushion and tapped his fingers lightly on his thigh. The plague in this life came later than in the previous life, but he still set foot on that road in the name of disaster relief.
