Chapter 187 The house is built

Liang Duo said, he thought more than Shi Lei and Li Biao, who only knew how to eat. Anyway, a lot of mushrooms grow in the mountains when it rains. Now there are no vegetables except rice porridge. Mushrooms are a rare dish.

Jiang Miao gave him an appreciative look. She was worthy of being an eldest brother, but she just thought longer than the two younger brothers. She originally planned to pick the mushrooms on the mountain and dry them for a long time. Moreover, the mushrooms were not only delicious but also It is rich in nutrients, how could she let it go?

But Jiang Miao also had concerns. There were so many varieties of mushrooms on the mountain that she couldn't recognize them all, let alone the people of Zhenjiang Prefecture. If they picked poisonous mushrooms, they would be harmed.

"It's okay to pick mushrooms, but some mushrooms are poisonous. How can people tell them apart?"

Jiang Miao expressed her concerns, and Liang Duo's expression dimmed. Yes, although he could eat more, the risk of eating mushrooms was too great. If something happened, they wouldn't be able to bear it.

Shen Yanqing was thoughtful, he was silent for a moment and spoke.

"The picked mushrooms will be inspected by my wife first, and then two old doctors will check whether they are poisonous and pick out the edible ones."

Jiang Miao thought it was feasible. She knew some varieties, and the two old doctors also knew poisonous mushrooms, so this was equivalent to a double guarantee, allowing them to pick out some edible mushrooms.

"Just do as the adults say. All the mushrooms you pick must be handed over. If you are found to be hiding or eating secretly, your daily rice porridge will be withheld."

Jiang Miao added this point to prevent some people from eating it secretly. After all, many mushrooms are very poisonous. It only takes a small amount to kill an adult. Moreover, these collected mushrooms are also used to cook porridge for them, which is not harmful at all. Need to eat secretly.

Liang Duo wrote them down one by one. He was originally worried about people stealing food, but now Jiang Miao threatened to cut off the food, which could greatly avoid this problem.

"My subordinates will do it now!"

Liang Duo mainly called the women and children to pick mushrooms. The male laborers were busy in the final stage of building the house. Only the women and children had free time. Liang Duo distributed a bamboo basket alone and sent the mushrooms to the county government. , I will give you extra meals on the day the house is completed.

The people's faces were filled with excitement when they heard this, and several children jumped up happily.

"Okay, okay, Mom, I'm going to pick more mushrooms. The soup Daddy will drink will be made from the mushrooms I picked..."

"good."

The woman here led her children up the mountain, and the houses in the city were gradually completed. Dozens of houses were built in two neat rows, with a spacious and clean road in the middle. The people looked at their new houses and shouted in their eyes With tears.

"We have a family, we have a family!"

"Yeah, I won't have to sleep on the streets anymore."

Although the house is relatively simple due to limited materials, no one dislikes it. This is a house they built with their own hands. It is not only as simple as a house, but also a new home that carries their emotions.

"Sir, all the houses in the city have been built, and the people outside the city can move into their new homes today!"

Shi Lei ran to inform Shen Yanqing as soon as the house was completed. His head was sweating because he ran so fast, but it did not affect his happiness at all.

After the house was built, no people in Zhenjiang Prefecture were displaced anymore. Why didn't this make him happy?

"Very good!"

Before Shen Yanqing could say anything, Jiang Miao became excited.

"Shi Lei, please have two pots of mushroom and chicken porridge cooked so that everyone will be full today!"

Shen Yanqing looked at her giving instructions to her subordinates with a doting look on her face, and after Jiang Miao finished speaking, she took the initiative to hand over a glass of water.

"Moisten your throat."

"hey-hey.……"

Jiang Miao took it with a smile. She had forgotten that Shen Yanqing was the county magistrate of Zhenjiang Prefecture, but she bypassed him and gave orders to her subordinates.

"Ms. sir, do you think I am nosy..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? It's all thanks to you that Zhenjiang Mansion is like this."

Shen Yanqing did not have the chauvinism of other men, and felt that Jiang Miao should stay at home to take care of her husband and raise children. He knew clearly Jiang Miao's ability. Without her, Zhenjiang Prefecture would not be able to grow crops, and the people might not be able to eat now. As for Fan, Shen Yanqing is frustrated by her abilities, so how could she dislike him for being so meddlesome?

Jiang Miao just asked casually. If Shen Yanqing answered yes, then she would blow his head off. Jiang Miao knew that many of her actions were outrageous in this era, but she was unwilling to suppress her nature. If Shen Yanqing couldn't tolerate it, she would have no choice but to kick him away.

Shen Yanqing didn't know that he had almost offended Jiang Miao, and he was now discussing the next move with Liang Duo.

Now that we have a house to live in, and crops have been planted to await a good harvest, the most urgent thing now is to quickly restore the economy of Zhenjiang Prefecture.

"Go and count how many of the common people are skilled. It's not limited to proficiency, as long as you know how to do it."

"good."

Liang Duo nodded. He understood what Shen Yanqing meant. People with craftsmanship are popular everywhere. These people will definitely not go hungry. Therefore, the chance of having particularly skilled craftsmen among the common people is very small. Most of them may just be I have learned a little bit, but judging from the current situation of Zhenjiang Prefecture, which is full of waste and waiting for development, these people can only be allowed to work.

After Liang Duo left, Jiang Miao went to ask Shen Yanqing what he thought.

"Ms. sir, how do you plan to open a shop?"

Now the shops in the city are all empty, with all the furnishings inside. As long as someone takes over, they will be opened soon. But the problem now is that there are no customers. The people of Zhenjiang Prefecture are now struggling to maintain food and clothing. Where can they find it? Use your spare money to buy other things.

"I plan to hire them in the name of the government and sell the goods to surrounding state capitals in exchange for food to supply to the people in the city."

"But, my husband is thinking the same thing as me!"

Jiang Miao laughed out loud. They were indeed a couple, and now they could understand each other better.

However, this is indeed the best way at the moment. Although Zhenjiang Prefecture was seriously affected by the disaster, the surrounding prefectures and cities were not. As long as there is business, there is no need to worry about not being able to make money in exchange for food.

"Well, now it depends on how many people Liang Duo can count."

"Mr. Sir, please reserve a shop for me. I want to do business in perfume beads and cosmetics."

Compared with others, this is a lucrative industry. Moreover, Jiang Miao has her own skills and raw materials are relatively easy to find. She also has a previous customer base. Jiang Miao is confident that what she makes will be very popular.

"good."

It's just a shop, and Shen Yanqing doesn't disagree.

“My husband is so kind!”

Jiang Miao praised her at the right time, which made Shen Yanqing's eyes soften even more.
