Chapter 7 Food
"Our army only needs to send a small number of talented people to manage the refugees, and then select some people from among the refugees.

A man with a strong physique can reclaim the land and dig water ditches...

Women can fish in the river, go to the mountains to pick leaves, dig edible grass roots...  

The old and the weak can repair tools in the logistics and prepare meals for everyone...

If there are still too many people, let them build houses.... "

Speaking of this, Lu Bu glanced at the people who had fallen into a sluggish state, feeling extremely proud, even more refreshing than defeating thousands of troops.

These defiant celebrity talents were stunned by what they said today.

"Everyone, the most important thing is that the land reclaimed by the refugees does not belong to them, but to the official land.

After the reclamation is completed, we provide seeds and farm tools for the refugees to cultivate. After receiving the goods, we can distribute the food they eat in proportion, and the rest will be owned by the army.

As long as this system is adopted, the refugees can have enough food, and we can also harvest a lot of food. Most importantly, these refugees can be transformed into our soldiers at any time to fight for us. "

Chen Gong has always been very steady, but today he lost his composure a bit. Although he tried his best to stabilize his mind, the hands hidden in the sleeves of his robes were still trembling with excitement.

I originally thought that Lu Bu was famous all over the world only by virtue of force, and he was a complete reckless man.

But now it seems that this is not the case at all!

Based on the insights just now, Chen Gong can be sure that no matter which side of the princes he seeks refuge in, he can become an important minister of one side.

Looking at Chen Gong whose chest was rising and falling, Lu Bu asked deliberately as if he was about to squirt old blood.

"Gongtai, is there anything wrong with what Benhou said?"

Chen Gong woke up with a start, and hurriedly waved his hands, "No, it's really a clever plan, a rare clever plan."

Li Feng suddenly stepped forward and cupped his hands and said, "Although Marquis Wen's method is very good, it will take a long time from now to the autumn harvest, and during this period of time, a lot of food will be consumed."

Having said that, Li Feng sighed, "Marquis Wen, where do these grains come from?"

When everyone in the hall heard Li Feng's words, the smiles on their faces froze immediately, and their joyful mood quickly cooled down as if being splashed with a basin of cold water.

There was no food in Puyang, and there was not enough military supplies, so what would they give the refugees to eat?
Everyone thought about this, and turned their heads to look at Lu Bu at the same time.

Lu Bu thought of the granary guarded by Gao Shun and smiled proudly, "Don't worry, everyone, since I have made this suggestion, there is a way to solve the food problem.

When you need food, just tell Benhou, and Benhou will solve it for you. "

Although Lu Bu was extremely confident, everyone was from Yanzhou. Everyone knew how much food there was in Puyang, so how could they believe it just because of one sentence?

Seeing everyone's disbelief, Lu Bu felt a little itchy.

Thinking back when Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, occupied Xianyang, he was persuaded to make Xianyang his capital, but he refused. He said a famous saying that best expresses Lu Bu's mood at the moment.

"Wealth and honor do not return to the hometown, like walking around at night in brocade, who knows!"

Lu Bu stood up, trying his best to put on an indifferent appearance, "Everyone can go and have a look with me, and you will know."

After speaking, Lu Bu put his hands behind his back and walked towards the door first.

Everyone in the hall glanced at each other, and they all saw the shock in each other's eyes. After reacting, they hurriedly chased after each other.

The crowd went out, either by car or on horseback, chasing the vehicle in front of Lu Bu, all the way to Puyang Dongcang.

After getting off the carriage, Zhang Miao quickly caught up with Chen Gong in front, and asked in a low voice, "Gongtai, is there really food?"

Chen Gong smiled wryly, "I don't know."

Zhang Miao looked up at the tall granary in the courtyard wall, and murmured, "I visited it yesterday, and there are only a few hundred tans of grain here!"

Chen Gong nodded, looked at Lu Bu's tall back, and sighed, "Meng Zhuo, Marquis Wen did this because he wanted to reassure everyone. We must not let him down. Be sure to cooperate with him."

Zhang Miao nodded, "The main thing is to stabilize the people's hearts now, and for the rest, we will slowly find a way in the future."

Gao Shun's personality was calm, even a bit stubborn. Lu Bu arranged him to guard the granary, and he would never move. He was even like a nail, nailed here, and it was impossible for others to pull it out.

Seeing so many people, Gao Shun's eyes flashed with surprise, but when he saw Lu Bu, he immediately got up to salute.

"I will finally meet Marquis Wen."

Lu Bu nodded and smiled, "Gao Shun, open the door and let everyone take a look at the things in the granary."

Gao Shun cupped his hands, opened the door, and led everyone straight to the granary.

Seeing that everyone was getting closer and closer to the gate of the granary, Zhang Miao hurriedly stood up and waved, "Everyone stop, the space ahead is too small, Gongtai and I will take a look first, and everyone is waiting here."

Chen Gong knew that everyone was going to reveal their secrets when they went to the door, so he hurriedly said, "Meng Zhuo is right, everyone is waiting here."

The words of the two were very important, and everyone had to listen, so they could only stop, but they kept looking in the direction of the granary.

Gao Shun walked to the door first, opened it, and then stepped aside.

Zhang Miao and Chen Gong had already made up their minds, regardless of whether there was any food in the granary, they just had to take a look at it, and immediately yelled to the full, and then took everyone back, and just let it go.

The two came to the warehouse door, glanced in casually, and when they saw it clearly, their bodies shook at the same time, and they hurriedly turned to look at each other, but saw that the other's eyes were also full of shock.

Zhang Miao pointed to the inside of the granary, he was so excited that he couldn't speak, and after a long while, he managed to utter two words.

"full!"

Chen Gong's eyes were wide open like copper bells, and he murmured.

"It's really full."

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Xue Lan felt a little anxious, hurriedly walked over, looked into the granary, and suddenly burst out laughing.

"Great, we have food."

The people in the back had long forgotten what Zhang Miao said, and rushed forward by coincidence. Seeing the full warehouse of grain, their eyes lit up and they all laughed.

Listening to everyone's laughter, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong, who knew the real situation, had the urge to cry with joy.

What is most lacking now, of course, is food!

With these grains, not only can refugees be relieved, but most importantly, more soldiers can be recruited to increase their strength.

At that time, as long as the strength is strong, there will be no more worries about Juancheng.

Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, Lu Bu felt a great sense of satisfaction in his heart, but he pretended to be indifferent and said slowly.
