On the 29th of November, the weather became colder and colder. Winter had officially arrived. The entire Tongtian Gorge was covered in snow, and the entire gorge seemed to be frozen.
Accompanied by the sound of falling snow, three figures landed on a piece of fertile land. It was Lin Muyu, Qin Yin, and Tang Xiaoxi.
Not far away, a few high-level demons dressed in the Empire's military uniform shouted in unison, "Who is it?"
"It's me."
Lin Muyu turned around, and the four-star insignia on her neck shone brightly. The group of demons all bowed respectfully. QianFeng, the governor of Eight Desolate Province, was only a three-star, but this person in front of them was actually a four-star. His identity was obvious.
"So it's Lin General! Greetings, Lin General! "
A chiliarch said respectfully, and then his gaze fell on the two beauties beside Lin Muyu.
"Oh, they are Royal Highness Yin and Princess Xi."
"Ah?" The chiliarch knelt for the second time, "This subordinate has eyes but failed to see. Greetings, Royal Highness Yin and Princess Xi!"
"Where's Marshal QianFeng?" Qin Yin asked.
"This subordinate will inform the Marshal immediately."
The horse disappeared into the snow. Not long after, QianFeng's figure broke through the air, and he smiled respectfully, "You're here!?"
"Yes."
"Show us the plantation, Marshal QianFeng?" Qin Yin smiled.
"Yes, Your Highness, this way please."
The four of them flew close to the ground. The water in the ditch had already frozen, but the water underneath was still rapid. After crossing the river, there was an entire plantation in front of them. It was all plastic sheds, and the sheds were about a meter high. Even if humans bent their bodies, it would be difficult for them to squeeze in. However, it was different for the worker ants, they could come and go as they pleased.
Opening one of the sheds, Lin Muyu looked down and saw that the potato germs inside were about 20 centimeters high. They were lush and lush, and she couldn't help but smile, "Xiao Yin, Xiao Xi, look, there are results!"
Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi, one on the left and one on the right, nestled in his arms. They looked down at the sheds and immediately smiled. Although they were just seedlings, it meant that they could provide a very large amount of food resources for the empire. At least, the three armies would no longer have to fight on empty stomachs. In Lin Muyu's eyes, these potatoes would be the strongest guarantee for the counterattack on the Celestial Pole Continent!
"But … it's snowing so heavily now, can they still survive?" Tang Xiaoxi's heart ached as she sealed the entrance of the shed, for fear that these seedlings would freeze to death.
Lin Muyu said, "Didn't you see the worker ants in the shed? They are responsible for maintaining the temperature and moisture, and even if it snows, it can't keep snowing. When the snow stops and the sky clears up, the worker ants will naturally sweep away the snow and let the sun shine in. As long as there is enough sunlight and moisture, they can produce a lot of potatoes no matter how cold it is. "
"That's really great."
Tang Xiaoxi stood up straight, looked at the endless plantation in the distance, and said, "So many …"
"Of course." Lin Muyu said proudly, "A total of 200 li of fertile land. Marshal QianFeng, can you calculate for Xiao Xi how much food can be harvested from this 200 li of land in a season?"
QianFeng was stunned, and said, "Lin General, this subordinate is not a farmer, how would I know these things?"
On the other hand, Qin Yin smiled and said, "Although it's 200 li, there are many mountains and rivers, and the area of the plantation is about eight thousand hectares. One hectare is one hundred mu, and if one mu is two hundred catties of output, then eight thousand hectares of land in a season will produce sixteen million catties of output. According to the Empire's rations calculation, one hundred catties is equivalent to one dan of military rations, one season can produce 1.6 million dan of military rations, which is about enough for eight hundred thousand soldiers to eat for a month."
"Wow, Xiao Yin is so amazing …" Tang Xiaoxi's mouth was wide open, she knew that she did not have this kind of calculation ability.
Lin Muyu frowned, and said, "It seems … it's still too little. One season of potato planting will take at least two months, and the plantation here can only provide food for four hundred thousand soldiers. Our Empire's regular army, not including the Imperial Army, has five hundred thousand soldiers. Moreover, after the war, the number of refugees increased dramatically, and all the treasuries have to allocate food to help the refugees, but it's still not enough! Marshal QianFeng … "
"This subordinate is here, Lin General, please give your orders."
"Discuss with Lulu again, and send more worker ants to cultivate and plant on the plains of Tongtian Province, the more the better."
"Yes."
QianFeng nodded, and said, "But Lin General, you can't be too optimistic, because the plantation needs a large amount of plastic, and there isn't much of it. Lulu said that it's almost used up, and if you want new ones, you'll need time to make them."
"I know, just do your best."
"Yes!"
QianFeng nodded with a smile, and said, "The taste of potatoes is incomparably delicious, why don't … Lin General, Her Highness Yin, and Princess Xi eat here today, and this subordinate will arrange a pot of potato meat soup, how about it?"
"Alright, I also ask the Marshal to arrange a place for us to stay. We'll stay for the night, and leave tomorrow."
"Yes, understood!"
…
At night, the cold wind was biting cold, and QianFeng ordered people to set up a huge tent at the edge of the plantation. Although it was cold outside, a fire was lit in the tent, and a large pot of soup was cooked. Moreover, it was QianFeng who personally 'cooked' the soup. There were potato pieces, fish, venison, vegetables, and many others in the pot, and there was also a lot of chili and pepper, which made Lin Muyu secretly sigh. QianFeng was also a master of Sichuan hot pot, and if he stepped into the God Emperor Realm and traveled to Earth, wouldn't it be terrible? Once this fellow went to Chengdu, wouldn't he be able to make a name for himself?
The soup in the pot was gurgling, and QianFeng dismissed the people on his left and right. There were only four people in the tent, plus two high-level demon girls who were scouts.
Lin Muyu was a little surprised, "I didn't expect … there were actually high-level female demons in the Demon Race. I've only seen Her Highness Ning 'er and Her Highness Jing' er before."
QianFeng smiled awkwardly, and said, "Most of the God Race women's physiques aren't suitable for cultivating demonic arts, so if they aren't the descendants of famous families, most of them will be reduced to maids or concubines of others."
Lin Muyu nodded, "The farming and weaving of the Central Plains has now been introduced to the Sky Gorge. Marshal QianFeng, why don't you give them proper jobs, and let them earn their own living, so that they won't always be attached to men, and lose the social status they deserve."
"Social status?" QianFeng was surprised.
Lin Muyu smiled, and said, "In my hometown, the status of men and women has always been equal, and even … cough cough, women are a level higher, and you can't even bare your teeth when they get angry at you."
At the side, Qin Yin and Tang Xiaoxi burst into laughter.
QianFeng said, "There's really such a thing?"
"Yes, all living beings are equal, there's nothing we can do."
QianFeng immediately cupped his fists, and said, "This subordinate understands, and will carry out this policy. As long as the people of the God Race can live a peaceful and quiet life, even if I, QianFeng, die, I will still be able to answer to His Majesty the Late Emperor, Jing 'er, and Ning' er."
A purple-eyed demon maid at the side pursed her red lips, and suddenly said cautiously, "Your Highness Yin, Lin General, can this little girl say something?"
"Yes." Qin Yin nodded.
Lin Muyu said cheerfully, "Just say it, Miss. Marshal QianFeng is also here, anyone can make a decision for you."
The girl said, "As Lin General said, it would be good if men and women could be equal. My three sisters are all married to the same person. He is a lord of the Sky Gorge, and he has a violent temperament. It's a pity that my sisters are whipped every day. Each of them is covered with cuts and bruises, but they have no way to seek justice. In our God Race, the status of women has always been like this. I hope … I hope that a word from Your Highness Yin and Lin General can change everything."
Lin Muyu looked deeply at QianFeng, and said, "Is it true?"
QianFeng blushed with shame, "Yes, the God Race has always been like this."
The Shattered Cauldron Realm can't keep fighting. Marshal Qian Feng, you must send people to the Middle Earth to learn farming and weaving techniques. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the women of the Devil Race will never be able to change their fates. In addition … set up an official in the Eight Desolates Province, enforce the constitution, and govern the province according to the law. This will save you a lot of trouble, and the unfairness in the Eight Desolates Province will be greatly reduced. Just like what happened to this girl's elder sisters, according to the law, the man who whipped his wife should receive a hundred lashes. "
QianFeng nodded, "Yes, I understand! Please rest assured, Lin General and Your Highness, I will do as you say. "
"That's good."
The girl at the side bowed deeply, "Thank you, Lin General …"
"You're welcome."
"The soup is ready." QianFeng smiled, "Come, serve it to Your Highness Yin and Princess Xi. Here, I have prepared a jar of good wine. Let's not go home until we're drunk. "
"Okay!"
Lin Muyu was grateful for QianFeng's trust in her. If it wasn't for the delay of the Tongtian Gorge, the Tianji Empire would have conquered Tianshu Province and Cangnan Province long ago. Every factor in this war was very important, and QianFeng was one of the important factors.
As the wine entered his heart, QianFeng's expression was no longer as carefree as before. Instead, it was more painful. He held his sword and said, "The war destroyed our past and my home. Originally, I thought that the God Race could become the ruler of the mainland again, but I didn't expect to meet such a strong enemy like Lin General."
Lin Muyu smiled, "The Demon Race was indeed unstoppable. If it wasn't for Ziling developing the Magic Crystal Cannon, I'm afraid you would have won. Marshal QianFeng, have you forgotten that you said you would marry Xiao Yin after defeating the Empire!"
QianFeng's face turned red, "I … I was really stupid and frivolous at that time. Please don't take it to heart, Your Highness Yin."
Qin Yin smiled gracefully, "Marshal QianFeng, you don't have to worry about it. I've already forgotten about it. There is only one person in Xiao Yin's heart, and there is only one person Xiao Yin wants to marry. That is my Brother Yu. "
Her voice was soft, but it was very powerful.
Lin Muyu held her little hand and said, "Marry, marry, marry. When I return to my hometown and bring you to see my father, I will marry you!"
Tang Xiaoxi looked at her quietly.
Although Lin Muyu was drunk, she was not completely drunk. She hurriedly said, "And Xiao Xi, marry them together …"
Tang Xiaoxi's cloudy mood turned into a sunny one.
Lin Muyu didn't dare to be careless again. Last time, the two goddess-like beauties got jealous and pierced through half of the sky of the Empire. That was why there were five years of Three Kings Rule. This time, she must handle it well.
QianFeng sat at the side enviously and continued to drink.
But he was afraid that when the wine entered his heart, it would only make him more depressed.
…
In one's life, there will always be obstacles. Some people can get over it, but some people can't get over it for the rest of their lives. But if you get over it, why do you have to get over it? It's better to have someone living in your heart than to be alone.
