Chapter 221

In the early morning of April 14, more than 300 empty carriages in Huajiapu slowly drove out of the gate, followed by more than 5,000 famous Chinese artists. The Huajia was almost emptied of manpower on this trip!

Hua Kai rode Lu all the way to the gate of Guangxian City, and saw Ji Le’s carriage waiting outside the city. Thousands of Hua family guards followed behind the horse body, and the guards of the Lu family’s dowry were all among them.

Seeing Hua Kai coming with so many carriages, Princess Ji Le got out of the carriage.

“Kay, what is this?” Princess Ji Le asked puzzledly looking at the empty carriage.

“Don’t worry about these five aunts, they will definitely have food when they arrive in Lu State. Let’s set off as soon as the time is running out! Try to arrive in Lu State in ten days.” Hua Kai said.

Princess Ji Le didn’t ask too much when she heard about this. Every family has unknown treasures. Hua Kai must put the food in what treasure space. These are the secrets of a family. Ji Le just got on the carriage. Let all the guards set off, she also wanted to deliver the grain to the Lu country as soon as possible.

Everyone in Huakai started on the road, and the people in Guangxian County saw this and didn’t know what the Hua family was doing. Only Hua family had such a big battle in Guang County!

An empty carriage travels hundreds of miles a day. If it is a carriage full of grain, it would be the sky if it can walk 50 miles. In the evening everyone took out tents and everyone set up. Huakai saw that there were still refugees wandering here. Maybe they were going to Guangxian, but whether they can get to Guangxian depends on luck.

Princess Ji Le had already sent an envoy to Lu State, telling King Lu that she was going home to visit relatives, and also told the Hua family to send food to help Lu State through the crisis, so that he could make arrangements to meet her early.

King Lu was overjoyed when he heard it. He has been overwhelmed by food problems recently. Lu’s food has basically been exhausted, refugees are everywhere, and families with surplus food are using food to build relationships, and domestic dissatisfaction with the Lu family is growing. The bigger, the support of the Hua family this time can be said to be a help in the snow.

Although King Lu didn’t know how much food the Hua family could support, he spread the news in Qufu City as soon as possible to appease the families who followed the Lu family, and the food crisis would soon be resolved.

Nowadays, whoever has the food is the boss. Many people come to the door when they hear that the Lu family finds the food. King Lu can only tell everyone that the food will be delivered in ten days. All families deal with the refugee problem well and insist on ten more days.

Although most of the Qi family did not believe this at all, many people still waited with hope. As long as there is a variety of food to grow in the ground, they will have the hope of living.

The news spread to various cities in Lu in less than a day. Many people knew that the monarch had food, and they all dragged their families to Qufu City to find a way to survive.

When King Lu heard that more and more victims gathered outside Qufu, he quietly kept silent in the palace. He knew that this news was deliberately spread by some family members, but now he can only bite the bullet and hold on. I hope my daughter will bring back more food this time, and at least let the victims outside the city feel at ease, otherwise the Lu family will be really sad!

It took only 8 days for Hua Kai and Princess Ji Le to reach 30 miles outside Qufu City. Here, scrawny victims can be seen struggling towards Qufu City. There is their only hope for survival.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Huakai asked everyone to camp on the spot. He led the Hua family to set up a large tent in the center of the camp. The area of ​​the tent was more than 200 square meters. Thousands of Hua family members stayed outside the tent to prevent people from approaching. , Hua Kai used the [Baoguang Glass Bottle] to fill the bags with grain.

A horse-drawn carriage entered the tent and was pushed out in less than two minutes. When it came out, the carriage’s reel was already deep into the ground. This new-style carriage was filled with 50 shi of grain. Strenuous.

Princess Ji Le stood outside her tent and watched the carriages filled with grain neatly put together. She was suddenly excited. More than 300 carriages can be at least more than 10,000 stones of grain, and the State of Lu can at least save it. Anxious!

Before dawn on the early morning of April 22, the Hua family’s more than three hundred carriages filled with grain lined up neatly. Hua’s family’s horses were put on the carriages, but the horses were a bit unable to pull, and the family’s only had to help. Push away.

After more than an hour of walking, more and more refugees were encountered on the road. Huakai began to arrange carriages to get closer, so that all the guards should pay attention not to let the refugees get too close to the carriages.

These hungry victims can do whatever they see with food.

The closer they were to Qufu, the more refugees. These refugees saw the Huajia convoy filled with food, and they all surrounded them involuntarily. The Huajia guards prevented them from approaching.

“Tell them, who would dare to get within three feet of the grain truck and kill!” Hua Kai decisively ordered.

Huakai also has a headache when seeing these victims, but it will be even more trouble if it is not cruel to make them mess up at this time.

Although the Hua Jia Ding kept shouting, the victims outside seemed to have only food in their eyes. Some victims started fanning the fire outside, saying that they should not let the carriages go into the city. When they entered the city, the food was distributed by the family. Enclosed, although there are tens of thousands of these victims, and there are still a steady stream of victims coming from the Quartet, the 6,000 Huajia guards are not vegetarian, and whoever dares to be the first to die is bound to die.

The two sides were in a stalemate. Princess Ji Le got out of the carriage and shouted to the victims outside, saying that when the food arrived in Qufu City, they would give everyone porridge, but where would the victims listen.

Just when the Hua Jia Ding couldn’t help but want to take action, a huge army came out of Qufu City. They looked like the regular army of Lu State in armor. The refugees slowly stepped away when they saw this place.

“Brother Wang!” Princess Ji Le called when she saw the middle-aged man who went to ride a horse.

“Ji Le, it’s really you! You really brought us food! Father said that you will send food back soon. I still don’t believe it. I didn’t expect it to be you!”

This middle-aged man looked much older than Ji Le Gong, but his eyes were somewhat similar to King Lu. He saw Princess Ji Le walking up with a laugh.

“Brother Wang, this is Hua Kai, Patriarch of the Hua Family… Kaier, this is my Brother Wang!” Princess Ji Le introduced to Hua Kai.

After the two saluted each other, the Qi State army sent the Huajia motorcade to Qufu City. After entering Qufu City, Huakai saw that the people here were showing their faces, but seeing the arrival of the food carts was just watching from afar. His life is at least Better than refugees outside the city.

Escorting the Huajia carriage into the gate of the Qi Palace, Hua Kai saw an old man waiting at the gate of the palace surrounded by the crowd. He looked at each other and knew that the other party was King Lu!

“Patriarch Hua, thank you Hua family for your help, and please enter the palace to rest first!” King Lu gave Hua Kai a gift as a friend.

“I have seen King Lu!” Hua Kai performed the gift of the emperor.

Hua Kai and Princess Ji Le entered the Lu Palace, and Lu Wang hosted a banquet to entertain them!

“Lu Guo has been suffering from food shortages for more than three years, please don’t mind Patriarch Hua!” Wang Lu invited the queen and several princesses to meet Hua Kai and Ji Le.

When Princess Ji Le saw the dishes on the table, she couldn’t help crying. There are more than a dozen dishes that are mostly meat. If you carefully observe that these meats are some wild animal meat, many of these meats have a sour taste. People usually don’t food.



“The hospitality of King Xie Lu, it’s good to be able to wrap your stomach with food in the famine year, but there is no food available in the Palace of Lu, which is unbelievable!” Hua Kai sighed.

“The palace still has some grain, but it has all been used to grow wheat. The country of Lu is a major grain country. If we want to restore our national strength, we should be able to restore farming. If we eat one less grain, the people will be able to add more than 100 grains this fall. Only when the national strength of Lu State can be restored as soon as possible!” Wang Lu looked at Hua Kai and said.

Hua Kai tasted the dishes on the table. Although the meat was exquisitely made and the chef’s craftsmanship was not bad, the faint sourness in the meat couldn’t be hidden. He stopped after a few bites!

Ji Le ate a few bites and then stopped. Several princesses from the Lu Palace stopped seeing them stop their chopsticks.

“I once asked Princess Ji Le if I learned that the Lu family needed a hundred thousand shi to survive the immediate crisis?” Hua Kai said business.

King Lu waved his hand to signal all the princesses to retreat, and soon there were only Hua Kai, Ji Le, Queen, and King Lu left in the Great Hall.

“One hundred thousand shi can barely solve the current crisis in Qufu city, leaving wheat seeds so that half of the people of Lu can replant spring wheat. If the crisis in Lu is to be solved, at least 300,000 shi of grain is needed. Now most families in Qufu have run out of food. “Wang Lu said.

Huakai wondered why the famine in Lu was more serious than that in Qi. Refugees have appeared in Qi since the wolf disaster. By now, nearly half of the people at the bottom of Qi have died.

While the situation of Lu State seems to be more serious, the victims of them starved to death are not many. Many aristocratic families are willing to take out their own grain to save the lives of civilians, this is because the national style of Lu and Qi is different.

Qi State is the hometown of Confucius Zhisheng. Most of the students here are Confucian students, and every family also advocates Confucianism. The Lu family should do the best in caring for the people, but this is not necessarily a good thing for the development of a country. .

“If 300,000 shi…The Hua family can help, this grain is considered to be lent by the Hua family to the Lu family, but it will have to be repaid in the future,” Hua Kai said.

If you don’t say repaying it, it is conditional help. After all, the brothers have to settle accounts clearly, saying that Princess Ji Le and Queen Lu both smiled.

“The king thanked the Hua family for the Lu country. Today, 300,000 shi of grain will be returned ten times!” King Lu got up and saluted Hua Kai. He thanked the Hua family on behalf of the people of the Lu country. Hua Kai gladly accepted it.

Huakai released a total of more than 400,000 stones of grain from the [Baoguang Glass Bottle] twice, and now there are more than 500,000 stones in the [Baoguang Glass Bottle]. This time, he left 300,000 stones for the State of Lu. Huakai formed a good bond for the Hua family. In the future, if the Hua family encounters a crisis, seeing today’s relationship, the Lu must help. The most powerful family that the Hua family has access to is the Lu family.
