Chapter 316 Have you ever thought about your man?
Everyone was afraid that she would not accept it, so she continued to add: "We don't want silver, as long as the village chief can give us a full meal."
They all followed Shen Ruolan for a few days, and they were all moved by her kindness during these days. They really never dreamed that the woman in front of them would be so generous.
Not only did she rescue the coolies from the sea of fire, she also returned all the food that the bandits had looted to the villagers. If they could follow someone with such a broad mind, they would be willing to go through fire and water without hesitation.
After the first villager in the crowd took the lead, the other villagers followed suit and wanted to stay with Shen Ruolan.
Shen Ruolan listened to what everyone said, and she smiled and said to everyone: "Thank you all for your trust in Ruolan. You can join my Fuzhai if you want, but..."
"But what?" The laborers looked at Shen Ruolan and asked excitedly.
Shen Ruolan said: "My village is not short of people at the moment, but Beishan Village is still short of a large number of people. If you want to join Fu Village, you can go to Beishan Village to find Shen Jing to register and go there to help me open up wasteland and cultivate land."
Although there are not many people in her Fu Village, she now needs to send people to Beishan Village to speed up the reclamation.
That's right, she had her eyes on Beishan Village and the large plain inside the mountain. She wanted to reclaim all the wasteland there. As for the wild buffaloes, she could either go up the mountain or capture them for work. Anyway, she was in great need of cattle now, so she would not mind how many she caught.
Of course, it was not so easy to catch a herd of bison. She sent Ji Han to Beishan Village with a hundred people. In four days, they captured six bison for her, including two bulls and four cows. Two of them were injured, otherwise they would not have been able to catch even five.
Everyone heard that they wanted to follow Shen Ruolan or go to Beinan Mountain. They were silent for a while and asked Shen Ruolan: "Master Fu, if we go there, will it be under your management or the previous heads of the family?"
If it were still the previous person in charge, they really wouldn't dare to go to Beinan Mountain, because everyone has suffered so much there and now they are unwilling to go no matter what.
Shen Ruolan understood what everyone was worried about, and she said to everyone: "Those who go to Beinan Mountain to open up wasteland will be directly under my jurisdiction, and the original villagers will still be under the jurisdiction of the heads of the families."
After she finished speaking, she paused and continued, "But don't worry, the heads are now under my management. They dare not abuse you like before. All welfare is provided according to the villagers of Fuzhai. So, whether you are directly under my management or under the management of several heads, your welfare will not change."
After hearing what Shen Ruolan said, everyone felt relieved instantly. They responded to Shen Ruolan: "Master Fu, we understand. Tomorrow morning, we will set out to help you open up the wasteland in Beinan Mountain."
Shen Ruolan nodded to everyone. In order to prevent everyone from rushing to help her open up the wasteland, which would result in no one left to work for the bosses, she looked at everyone and said, "Well, don't rush to help me open up the wasteland. Some people should stay behind to help the bosses work."
"Yes, village chief." Everyone responded loudly.
Shen Ruolan arranged everything for everyone, and finally had some free time. She was holding her child and preparing to enter the yard when she heard Jiang Qing say meaningfully behind her: "It seems that Miss Shen has gained a lot from this trip."
Shen Ruolan turned around and saw Jiang Qing behind her. She lowered her head and said to the two children, "Zheyi, Anhe, you two can play with Aunt Liu for a while. When mother is done with her work, she will come and make you something delicious. Okay?"
When Xiao Anhe heard about the delicious food, she smiled and said to her mother: "Okay"
However, Shen Zeyi hugged his mother tightly and didn't want to leave at all.
Shen Ruolan lowered her head and whispered something to her son. Soon, he opened his eyes wide, looked at his mother and shouted, "Mom!"
"Be good." Shen Ruolan sent the two children away and said to Jiang Qing, "Your Highness, although I got some spoils on this trip, it was also earned by all of us with our lives, so this is what we deserve."
When Shen Ruolan said this, she looked at Jiang Qing and said meaningfully, "I think what His Royal Highness should care about is not these spoils of war, but the person who planned all this behind the scenes."
Jiang Qing glanced at the mountains of grain. It would be a lie to say he didn't care. After all, the treasury was empty and there was a war. As long as he could get hold of it, even if it was just a grain, he wouldn't let it go.
However, from what she said, it seemed that their trip was not going very smoothly, and there was also a crucial person. Thinking of this, he looked at Shen Ruolan and asked, "Who is the person in Beinan Mountain? Is it Xia Hongmiao or Shan Mingyuan?"
Shen Ruolan didn't want to tell Jiang Qing, but she thought that he had subordinates around, and he would know even if she didn't say it, so she rolled her eyes at him and confessed, "It was Shan Mingyuan."
After listening to Shen Ruolan's words, Jiang Qing nodded and said, "Well, it's about the same as what I guessed."
After saying that, he asked Shen Ruolan, "Did you plunder all the food in the entire Beinan Mountain?"
The group of people in Beinan Mountain had a lot of food. He sent people to buy it several times, but they were unwilling to sell it. If he forced them to buy it, they would go to Xia Country for help, saying that Bei Ming robbed them, which made him very angry.
I didn't expect that this woman would turn the guy upside down with just one move.
Shen Ruolan listened to Jiang Qing's question. She didn't intend to hide it, because she couldn't hide it at all. She told him the truth: "About the same. I transported nearly 600,000 kilograms. After all the distribution along the way, there are still about 200,000 kilograms left."
Jiang Qing heard that Shen Ruolan had transported 600,000 kilograms of grain and distributed hundreds of thousands of kilograms to others. He looked at her with excitement and asked, "Miss Shen, who did you give the grain to?"
After saying this, he unconsciously took a few steps closer to Shen Ruolan.
Shen Ruolan quickly stepped back and said to him unhappily, "Your Highness, these grains were taken from the local people by them. I have to return them to everyone. Otherwise, do I want to let the people starve to death?"
Jiang Qing heard Shen Ruolan return all the food to the villagers. He looked at her with a look of disappointment and said, "I really don't know what to say to you. You are such a smart person, but you insist on doing such a meaningless and stupid thing!"
In Jiang Qing's opinion, the autumn harvest is coming soon, and the villagers will not starve to death without the food, but it is different for the soldiers on the front line. Not only will they be unable to fight without food, they will also starve to death and be killed!
Shen Ruolan was instantly displeased when Jiang Qing called her stupid. She looked at him and retorted, "Hey, Your Highness, please be careful with your words. I, Shen Ruolan, got these things with my own strength, so I will do whatever I want with them. I won't tolerate anyone else telling me what to do!"
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she didn't want to bother with the prince anymore, so she turned around and left.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Qing said behind her: "Yes, you are kind and generous, but have you ever thought about your man? He is at the front with thousands of soldiers and has run out of food and bows."
