"Your Majesty! Is there anything else you can tell me about this lowly job?"
As soon as the water transport team set off, Yu Ming got up.
He only slept for about five hours. As soon as he woke up, he hurried to Song Yang to report.
After just taking a nap, Yu Ming felt that the camp had changed drastically.
He even felt that if he slept until dark and woke up, he might have been lost by now.
"I really have something to do. You bring a team of people. Prepare ten carts and hitch them to oxen to follow me to the palace."
Song Yang put on his mask and gloves, changed his clothes, and went out fully armed.
He also ordered everyone not to come within five steps of him.
The camp is running out of food.
Now we must go back to the palace and get out the three thousand stones of grain from the cellar.
Yu Ming knew that the palace had food, but he didn't know where the entrance to the cellar was.
There are ruins everywhere now, and there is not even a landmark. Even if Song Yang draws a map for him, he may not be able to find it.
Originally, Fang Zhe should have taken care of this matter.
He is the chief historian, and he is also in charge of collecting and distributing food in the palace.
But now that he is lying down, Song Yang, who is a close contact, can only take action personally.
It is tragic to say that there were hundreds of people in the entire palace, but only Song Yang and Fang Zhe survived.
Looking at the ruins of the palace in front of him, Song Yang shook his head helplessly.
After the natural disaster, he never came back.
As a time traveler Song Yang, he has never been to this place at all.
All memories are inherited from the original body.
The front yard of the palace is full of ruins and broken walls, with almost nowhere to stay.
There were still some charred corpses in the ruins, some smelled of putrid smell, and some were completely burned to charcoal.
These people should all be people he knew from his previous life, and may even be his close relatives.
Unfortunately, they all turned into scorched earth due to natural disasters.
Song Yang was slightly emotional.
Follow the memory and come to the backyard.
Fortunately, there is no need to walk through the door now.
Go around to the back to find a better place to walk and go directly over the ruins.
The backyard of the palace is quite open. It used to be a garden and a large lotus pond.
Song Yang remembered that there were many carps in the lotus pond, and he didn't know if any of them were alive now.
"Master Yu, I'll go to the pond over there and check if there are any live fish to bring back."
Song Yang wanted to make some fish soup to improve everyone's diet and supplement their nutrition.
I don’t know what kind of pollution the rivers and lakes have been polluted, and the fish are almost dead.
The artificial lake in my yard may not have been affected, and there might actually be some surviving fish.
After explaining the matter of finding fish, Song Yang came to a piece of charred land according to his memory.
"It should be here, clean it up."
Song Yang gave the order and gave up his position.
He is in close contact now and has to keep his distance from others at all times.
Yu Ming led a few strong men to sweep away a layer of plant ash and gravel, and saw a stone slab.
"That's it, go down, the food should be inside." Song Yang gestured.
After prying open the stone slab, there was a stone step going down. After walking down a few steps, you saw an iron door.
A big lock was hung on the iron door, blocking Yu Ming's way.
Song Yang could see the situation inside from the scrap pile at the back.
When he saw the stone door, he remembered that there was an anti-theft measure inside.
"Break it open, the key has been lost a long time ago..." Song Yang spread his hands and said.
He really doesn't have a key, there are only two keys here in his memory.
One is in the hands of his mother-in-law, and the other is in his own hands.
At that time, he was buried in the ruins, and all his clothes were burned.
The key originally tied with a red string has been lost long ago.
Yu Ming nodded. With Song Yang's consent, it would be easier for him to operate.
Someone brought an iron rod over and inserted it into the crack of the lock.
"Zizzizi!"
After a while of friction, the iron rod slipped out, and the lock was fine!
I have to say that the palace’s security against theft is really good...
Just put it on again and again, and when Yu Ming got tired, he would change it to someone else.
It went on like this for half an hour.
"Bang bang!"
After a crisp sound, the big lock finally opened!
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I will take someone down to take a look."
When Yu Ming saw the iron door open, he wiped his sweat and stood up and said to Song Yang.
Song Yang nodded, and Yu Ming led people inside.
"Don't move! Go and invite the prince!"
Yu Ming had only been in for a minute when he heard his voice coming from the cellar.
Song Yang was stunned, what was going on?
After a while, a strong man ran out and pointed inside and shouted: "Your Majesty! Mr. Yu, please come in."
Song Yang was speechless, really!
He was really speechless when he saw ten boxes full of gold!
There is not only a lot of food in the cellar, but also ten boxes of gold and a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings.
When Song Yang entered the cellar, the torches inside illuminated the gold.
The golden light was blinding.
The young men all drooled as they looked at the gold.
No wonder Yu Ming called him in in a hurry. He was afraid that the gold and antique calligraphy and paintings would be robbed by strong men.
After all, money moves people’s hearts!
"You want this gold? Take it all."
"Let's see if we can get some food in exchange!"
Although Song Yang was greedy, he understood that these things would be of little use in a short time.
"Uh..." Yu Ming was stunned for a moment and then understood.
"Your Majesty still sees clearly! I admire you!" Yu Ming clasped his fists.
"Although gold is dazzling, we don't have anything to eat now! This disaster has affected so many places. You don't even spend the money you have."
Song Yang shook his head and said.
Minzhuangzhong was a bit confused just now, but now after listening to Song Yang's words, he also knows that food is more important.
Song Yang glanced at everyone and said solemnly:
"Everyone, you will follow me and be reborn in the ruins. I promise you in front of so many people."
"As long as order is restored in the future, each person will be rewarded with a reward of one hundred taels!"
"Now! This gold is still here. I will not take it out, and this big iron door will not be locked! When the world is better, I will distribute the money to you as promised!"
"If the world is not going well... then all this money will be useless!"
When the young men heard this, they immediately cheered.
"Your Majesty, a thousand years old!"
"My lord, long blessings and good fortune!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"
No matter what happens in the future, at least I have the prince's promise.
What if there really is such a day?
The prince will never break his promise in front of so many people!
One hundred taels of gold is one thousand taels of silver!
How much land is enough to buy!
Yu Ming looked at Song Yang, his eyes full of admiration.
"Your Majesty is indeed full of wisdom!"
He could see clearly that these people didn't care whether they could get one hundred taels of gold in the future.
At the very least, these people will be more motivated from now on.
The prince only used verbal promises to make these one hundred strong men grateful.
"Don't be stunned! Let's move the food!"
"This looks like a lot of food!"
"If you can't take it away today, you can put it here first. If it's all eaten in the camp, you can pick it up later. Yu Ming, you are responsible for this!"
"I am going out first, so I don't want to infect you."
Song Yang looked at everyone, said an explanation, and then turned around and left the cellar.
