Stock up in space to survive and save civilization in the end of the world

In the measurement unit of the Wei Dynasty, one bucket of rice was ten kilograms, and ten liters was one bucket.

With food, the situation will be revitalized.

Lin Qian opened the "Youjian Rice Shop" opposite the government office, and at the same time found several storytellers to train and do a good job in publicity.

The price of food was not set high, and the purpose of purchasing it with the property deed was to find out the current fixed population and number of refugees in the city.

She pulled the officials and historians out of their offices, and those who came to buy food had to register the population first and then get approval slips to buy food.

At present, the dead bodies and filth in the city have been cleaned up, and there are still hundreds of seriously ill patients with plague, who are isolated in an open space outside the city.

There are never enough medicinal materials. People who have no money and are seriously ill can only resign themselves to drinking the free pot of medicine, which is just a psychological comfort. Now more than a dozen people die every day.

Lin Qian estimated that the plague would not stop until these people were gone.

Part of the money earned from selling grain is used to pay salaries to officials and government officials, who have a lot of things to take care of.

Among these people, only Lu Wen satisfied her most with his work, and he did things right without asking any questions.

For example, when he was asked to draft a notice, when he heard that official history was "for both men and women," Lu Wen was just a little surprised, didn't ask any more questions, lowered his head and picked up the pen in one go.

Lin Qian planned to test the waters first. Now that no one is in charge of her, and there are no powerful nobles on her left or right to interfere, she cannot waste this God-given opportunity.

The recruitment notice was posted next to the grain store, and Lin Qian also arranged for a storyteller to stand there and explain that as long as they were in good health and knew a few words, both men and women could go to the governor's office to participate in the selection of officials in three days.

After buying food, the people who came to read the notice were all discussing whether "women" could be officials.

The storyteller who was trained by Lin Qian plausibly said: "When Empress Feng was alive, she used female historians to take care of the affairs of the harem. Now that the Tang Dynasty governor is going to exterminate the traitors, and girls come forward to take care of things, why can't we use female historians?"

The Wei Dynasty was an open society, and the restrictions on women were different from those in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Official laws recognized women's inheritance rights, and they could even apply for the establishment of a "female household" with a female as the head of the household.

Yuzhang City is a prefectural city. Lin Qian thinks at least how many people can come in the next three days? After all, the salary she gave was quite good, including food and cloth.

The selection test papers have also been released. There are three types of questions, simple literacy questions, counting questions, and moral questions.

When the people in the city started talking about it, Lin Qian didn't expect that the first people to sign up were her sister-in-law Sun Wenyin and her cousin Zhang Yao.

The two came over and asked, "Does my little sister look down on us?"

Lin Qian really forgot about them. Sun Wenyin still had one child, but Zhang Yao had both children gone.

I checked their pulse several times at the inn before, but the pulse was not good, mainly due to depression in the heart.

"It would be great if the two sisters-in-law can come!"

A noble lady who was literate and willing to work even offered to send food to her door. Of course, she would not refuse anyone who came.

Lin Qian directly handed over the selection of officials to them. Sun Wenyin was Dou's mother's favorite daughter-in-law. She was very capable in all aspects. The difficulty of the selection examination may not be as difficult as the banquet held by Zhenbei Hou in the past.

In addition to this matter, the people were still discussing the "Youjian Medical Clinic" in the north of the city. The opening day was very high-profile, and the reputation of the miracle doctor Xu Langzhong was spread.

He originally planned to return to Lin'an City with Dou Wei. After Lin Qian learned the news, she said to him: "Why not follow the example of Mr. Zhong Jing in writing "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases"?"

Doctor Xu quickly declined: "It's all the girl's fault."

In the end, he stayed. Lin Qian was not interested in writing a book, but someone had to write the methods and empirical measures for treating the plague.

There was so much commotion in Yuzhang City, and it was somewhat more vibrant than before.

Lin Qian continued to take people out of the city to inspect the farmland without touching the ground.

She visited several villages, and there were many paddy fields on the right side of the river, but the artifact "Yangma" had not appeared yet.

The rice horse is shaped like a boat, with a smooth bottom and an upturned head and tail, which facilitates sliding in the rice field. It is a tool used for transplanting and pulling out rice seedlings when planting rice. It only appeared in the Song Dynasty.

There are drawings of the space, and Lin Qian plans to find a carpenter to try to make it.

"Are you planning to dig a ditch?" Tang Hao opened his eyes wide and looked surprised.

Lin Qian took out Lu Wen's investigation document and showed it to him: "Third Uncle, there is little rain in Jiangyou this year, and the farmland is short of water. Several villages fought over irrigation, and people died in the end."

Tang Hao felt that this niece was too courageous. How could she just do such a big thing as building a canal? If she was not careful, the canal would be ruined.

Lin Qian thinks that the canal needs to be repaired, and repairing it will ensure this year's food harvest.

And there is no need to worry about the construction of the canal. Xiao Huangqiu has already planned the drawings for her based on the data and terrain.

Tang Hao wanted to show his dignity as an elder. Building canals was no small matter, and excessive corvee work would cause resentment among the people.

Lin Qian had never thought of using corvees to build canals. "There are many homeless people in the city, so we arranged for them to build canals, take care of food and give them money."

Tang Hao frowned: "Where does the food come from?"

"The merchants are bringing grain."

Lin Qian made an agreement with the merchant, and the money from selling the masks was directly used to buy grain from the local nobles and ship it back.

In order to prevent Tang Hao from continuing to bother about repairing the canal, Lin Qian took out a bamboo tube and handed it over, "Third uncle, do you think this can be given to my father as military rations?"

Inside the bamboo tube is "fried noodles", which was also a military ration that only appeared in the Ming Dynasty.

Fried noodles are fried directly with flour and can be stored for a long time. When you are hungry, just chew the noodles in your mouth and drink a few sips of water to fill your stomach.

During the war, fried noodles are easy to carry and will not spoil easily, making them suitable for soldiers to carry out assaults.

Tang Hao got the thing and took a bite, and immediately said excitedly: "Maybe it will be kept for a long time?"

"can."

After returning that day, Tang Hao came to his senses. He seemed to have forgotten about stopping his niece from repairing the canal.

He wrote a letter to Tang Nu to express his concern: Brother, yesterday your daughter said she wanted to select talents, today she said she wanted to build canals, and tomorrow she wants to buy maids, and she said she wanted to train a group of female generals.
