Chapter 139 - Farming in Full Swing

Is the broken rice new or old?" Ye Mumu asked.

"It's new rice, from the same season as the rice I sold you."

"My brother-in-law's factory sells you broken rice, so it won't be targeted by the higher-ups."

In previous years, broken rice was sold to feed processing plants and would not flow into the market. This year, there are fewer pig farmers, and the feed plants have reduced production, so broken rice is left.

His brother-in-law was so worried about the sales of the piles of broken rice in the factory that he couldn't eat or sleep.

He could only try to sell it to Ye Mumu!

Ye Mumu asked him, "How much inventory do you have now?"

"Quite a lot, about 500 tons!"

"Then I'll take them all, you transport the broken rice to the villa!"

"Okay!"

After talking to the owner of the rice shop, Ye Mumu received a message from the designer of the antique shop.

After the store background and soft furnishings were changed, a panoramic video was sent to her for review.

The black solid wood cabinets, display tables, tea table room...

The Chinese-style decoration has a sense of historical precipitation, which is in line with the tone of the antique shop.

Ye Mumu was very satisfied.

The designer said: "It was Mr. Mu next door who gave the inspiration. The tea table was suggested by him. He said that many of your big customers have the habit of drinking tea, so I kept the tea table area."

"Miss Ye, if you have time, come to inspect it in the afternoon!"

"Okay."

Ye Mumu and the designer made an appointment at 2:30 in the afternoon to go to the antique shop for inspection.

She went up to the third floor and looked at the boxes that had been placed.

She didn't know what was in the box, but they were all treasures that the generals had kept at the bottom of the box.

The largest number was General Chen Kui's box, with a total of twelve.

She took down the top one, put it on the ground and opened it.

She originally thought that the box was full of gold, silver, treasures, and jewelry.

Surprisingly, none of them were.

The first thing that caught her eye was a piece of white paper with neat simplified Chinese characters written in pencil on it.

The text was written by a child, and the strokes were a bit immature.

"Thank you for the candies, Sister God. My sisters and brothers all like them."

"This is a small gift for Sister God. I hope you like it!"

There is a small box in the box, and Ye Mumu curiously opened it.

There are several small pottery figures made of clay in it. The pottery figures are naive and are toys for children.

Then, she turned out a Luban lock, which is made of yellow pear wood.

There are also pottery made into little tigers, little civet cats, puppies, and little cicadas carved from jade...

Finally, at the bottom of the box is a small sword for children to play with.

General Chen Kui's family is worthy of being a family of military generals. Others give children small wooden swords to play with.

He gives his children a bronze sword to play with!

The bronze sword has no rust and the blade is sharp. It can be seen that the little master treasures it tightly and often sharpens the sword.

Ye Mumu took out the sword and pressed a small note underneath.

"Sister God, my brother said that the god is a man. Feng'er thinks you must be a beautiful fairy. Only fairies will buy candy and snacks for us and buy lipstick and skin care products for my mother."

"Sister Fairy, Feng'er thanks you for everything you have done for Zhenguan."

This child is so sensible!

Just these little gadgets, if placed in an antique shop, will definitely attract customers!

She packed up all the small antiques in the box, and then took two porcelain bowls with words on them.

Packed them up and sent them to the antique shop in the afternoon.

After going downstairs, she sent all the weapons over.

Zhenguan.

Now that Zhenguan is peaceful, after all the 100,000 new soldiers have had breakfast, they began to plan the camp.

For every 10,000 people, a piece of open space is marked out, tents are set up, a training ground is circled, water pipes are pulled, faucets are installed... After solving the drinking water problem, digging pits begins!

Nine new generals came to the general's tent to report.

When they saw the many weapons placed in the tent, especially the Qin crossbow and the Mo Dao...

Men are naturally not resistant to weapons.

They saw the Mo Dao made of fine iron, the Qin crossbow taller than a person, and thousands of armors...

All of them were shining and couldn't walk.

These weapons are more sophisticated than the weapons they currently have.

Cheng Zixiao couldn't help it, picked up a Tang horizontal sword, opened the scabbard...

The cold and chilly blade light reflected a human figure, and the blade was so sharp that it was nitpicking.

He asked his men to hold up their spears and slashed them horizontally.

Crack, and the bronze spear broke with a sound.

The nine soldiers stared at the Tang horizontal sword in Cheng Zixiao's hand with wide eyes.

This.....😲

, this is a sharp weapon that can cut iron like mud!

Zhan Chengyin, Chen Kui and others heard the noise outside and all walked out. They saw Cheng Zixiao's eyes full of shock, his eyes were a little crazy, looking at the horizontal sword in his hand...

Not only him, but other generals were also shocked by the Tang horizontal sword!

When they saw Zhan Chengyin coming out, the nine soldiers clasped their fists and bowed together, "General!"

Zhan Chengyin smiled and nodded, "What do you think of this batch of equipment?"

Cheng Zixiao held the Tang horizontal sword in his hand tightly and refused to let go.

"General, this knife is so sharp that there is no other knife in the whole Daqi, no, in the whole China~"

Then, he looked at the pile of thousands of knives on the ground. He was filled with emotion.

If each of his soldiers was equipped with one,

he would have the illusion that he could flatten China!

Because the weapon was too advanced!

Compared with other countries, it was at least a hundred years old!

"If each soldier was equipped with this long knife, the Zhan family army would have no rivals in the whole China."

"What if we face the Yellow Flag Army!"

The nine soldiers had been stationed in Tongguan for a long time and knew that there were hundreds of large and small rebel armies in Daqi. Among them, the most powerful one was the Yellow Flag Army.

In just three months, the number of people reached 250,000, which was more than the Zhan family army under Zhan Chengyin.

Now, there are probably 300,000 people.

It is said that the weapons are also made of fine iron, and there is sufficient food and grass. The people who can't survive walk hundreds of miles just to find the Yellow Flag Army to join the army.

If this force rises, it will become the biggest opponent of Daqi.

Cheng Zixiao weighed the Tang sword in his hand.

With a fierce look in his eyes, he said firmly: "The Yellow Flag Army cannot be the opponent of the Zhan Family Army!"

The rebel army had not received professional training and was a low-level makeshift team.

The Zhan Family Army had experienced countless battles, and those who survived were ruthless people who had killed hundreds of enemy soldiers.

How could a makeshift team compare with well-trained soldiers?

Zhan Chengyin nodded, smiled and said to the soldiers: "Welcome to join the Zhan Family Army. From now on, you are all part of the Zhan Family Army."

"Whatever General Chen Kui and Chen Wu have, you will have."

"You can choose the weapons here first. You can take any weapon you like."

"Song Duo, take out all the weapons and equipment in the warehouse and distribute them to you and the soldiers."

"Yes, General!"

Zhan Chengyin rode on his warhorse and rushed to the foot of Zhenguan Mountain.

Mo Fan and Bian Ziping and Wu Sanlang were farming here.

Bian Ziping connected the water pump with a fire hose to pump water from the river to the newly reclaimed land.

Wu Sanlang led the people to start farming.

They are now planting corn and rice.

The Chu people under Wu Sanlang also came to help plant vegetables such as winter melon, eggplant, and peppers.

It is midsummer now, and autumn will come soon.

Taking advantage of the end of summer, we can still plant a little.

Today, all the people in the city have been mobilized.

Young Master Mo Fan was driving a plow in the wilderness.

The common people would help pick up the stones and put them in Jiang Yuan's tractor bucket. When the bucket was full, it would be taken to the river to dump.

Every time a piece of land was reclaimed, the common people would water it.

Now, the whole town is bustling with activity, clearing wasteland and planting crops.

The families of the new soldiers came to see the common people smiling and working hard.

In just one day, their mentality changed dramatically.

Yesterday they thought they couldn't survive, but today the widows all found new jobs.

They worked as embroiderers in Mrs. Chen's embroidery room, making new clothes for the soldiers.

Not only were they provided with three meals, but they could also bring their children.

The children had a teacher to teach them to read, and they didn't have to pay tuition.

And they received monthly wages, six pounds of rice and three pounds of flour.

They could support their widows and orphans.

Now, they all feel like they have been reborn!

Zhenguan is really a paradise!
