“I know some people want to leave the mountain, but I am here to make it clear to you that our family will not leave the mountain now.

If any of you want to go down the mountain, I won't stop you, but there is a condition.

That is, once you go down the mountain, you are not allowed to come up again, no matter who has been out.

If he dares to come near our cave again, I will kill him, no matter who he is.

So if you want to go out, you'd better think it through, because once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back."

Guo Jingtian did not threaten him, he really made the decision.

"Jingtian, it doesn't matter whether we go out or not. What's important is that we have no food to eat. If we continue to stay here, we will starve to death."

Guo Jinglin's father said that some of their family's food had been stolen by bandits.

Those who have managed to hold on until now are now a family, and they can make ends meet. If they continue to endure, they will really starve to death.

"Yes! Jingtian, can you help us think of a solution? As long as we can have one meal a day, we will obey your arrangements for everything."

The head of another family also said, as long as there is food to eat, who would be willing to go out and take risks!

“Okay, I’ll lend you 300 kilograms of grain and one kilogram of salt every month, and then you’ll help me grow crops on the top of the mountain.

You only get one third of what you grow after the harvest, and the rest belongs to me."

Guo Jingtian didn't want them to have too much of the food. If they had too much, they would sell it if they couldn't finish it.

His wife said that these things were not available in their Dajing Dynasty, and the production was high.

If this kind of thing is taken out, it might cause them trouble.

So we can only let them stay in the stage of being full, so that they don’t have the opportunity to sell them.

He didn't lend them too much food. He couldn't say if it was too much, but he just made sure they didn't starve to death.

"Really? Jingtian, are you going to keep your word?"

Hearing this, Guo Jinglin's father was the most excited, because their family really had no food left.

If they borrow 300 kilograms of food every month, their whole family will not starve to death. As long as they can survive, there is still hope.

"Jingtian, our family is willing to stay and will definitely obey all your orders in the future."

Other families also quickly expressed their willingness to lend them 3 kilograms of food every month.

No matter what they grow, at least they won't starve to death, and that's the best outcome.

"Okay, then I will lend each of your families 50 kilograms of food now, and then give you another 5 kilograms in 50 days. It will be like this every time from now on.

Starting tomorrow, you will follow me to the mountain to help me prepare the land.

Now is the beginning of spring, the best time for this kind of thing, so hurry up tomorrow."

Guo Jingtian did not give them too much food at one time. It would be very strange if he could give them too much food at one time at this time.

Giving them a little at a time won’t make them think too much, but it won’t let them starve to death.

"can."

For the villagers, as long as they have food to eat, it doesn’t matter how the food is given.

Guo Jingtian began to move food out of their room. All the food had been prepared by Chen Wanqing long ago.

She also did not take out the food in her space, which was all bought before the snow disaster.

After the villagers got the food and salt, they all cooked a meal. With the wild vegetables they dug today, they finally had a full meal.

The next morning, Guo Jingtian took them to the top of the mountain, found a suitable place for reclamation, and started digging.

We all had a full meal last night, so now everyone is very motivated.

What Chen Wanqing gave them to plant were sweet potato vines. As long as they were not allowed to see where they were grown, Guo Jingtian would be more likely to be persuaded.

Every day after that, the men followed Guo Jingtian to farm, and the women went around digging up some wild vegetables to eat.

Sometimes, Guo Jingtian and his son would catch some prey, and naturally they would share a little with others.

Everyone was very happy with this kind of life, which was better than their previous life in the village because they had meat to eat from time to time.

Their days passed one by one, and in the blink of an eye, it was time for the corn to ripen.

"Wife, I brought back some corn today. Can you see if it's ripe?"

Guo Jingtian carried back half a bag of corn.

"Well, you can pick them now. If you want to pick older ones, you can wait a few days so they can be kept longer."

Chen Wanqing's belly is now very big, except in their room.

She only goes out to the cave entrance occasionally for a walk, and she no longer goes anywhere else.

"Then let them pick it in a few days. How are we going to eat it?"

Guo Jingtian has never eaten it and wants to get some to try.

"Just peel off the outer layer of skin and throw it directly into the water to cook."

Corn is the best to eat.

"Okay, I'll give it a try."

Guo Jingtian went out again with the bag.

When it was cooked, everyone in the cave smelled the fragrance and came over to ask about it.

"Jingtian, what are you cooking? It smells so good, can you let me have a taste?"

When Guo Han smelled the fragrance, he couldn't help drooling, so he just shamelessly asked him for it.

“That’s all I have now, I don’t have any extra to share with you.

In a few days, we will collect all the food back and you will have some at home. You can eat whatever you want then.”

Guo Jingtian couldn't help drooling when he smelled the flavor, and he was reluctant to share it with others.

"Brother-in-law, can I have a little bit?"

Chen Dawei couldn't help drooling when he smelled the fragrance, but he didn't ask directly. Instead, he kicked Chen Xiaosi and asked him to ask.

"Give."

Guo Jingtian was quite nice to his three brothers-in-law and gave each of them one.

He immediately scooped out another one for his father, then put a few more on a large plate and went back to their room.

Seeing that they were all eating, Xiao Taozi quickly picked one out to eat. It smelled so good that she couldn't help drooling.

When the other people in the cave saw their family enjoying the food, they all started swallowing their saliva, but since their family refused to give them any food, they had no choice but to hold it in.

"Wife, this is called corn. It's so delicious. It's fragrant and sweet."

Guo Jingtian ate several of them in one breath. He didn’t bring many back this time, so although he wanted to eat more, he would have to wait until next time.

“You will also like the other dishes when the time comes, and there are many ways to cook them.

My husband, if these things were presented to the court, it would be a great achievement, do you want them?"

Chen Wanqing was a little worried that he wouldn't handle this well, which would cause a lot of trouble.

“After you give birth to the baby, I want to try again to see if I can pass the exam.

I want to keep this great achievement for myself, and I will try my best to keep the villagers here.

Now that I have you and a child, I want to have some rights even more so that you and the child can be better protected."

Guo Jingtian thought about his wife's extraordinary abilities. If he was still so cowardly, would she look down on him?
