Because Ling Xue's information was incorrect, the outside world was told that the harvest would be delayed by a month. This allowed Ling Xue to harvest sweet potatoes and potatoes smoothly.
Most of the refugees who came to Ling Xue were from cities near Yunyang Prefecture. The refugees from far away were not unfamiliar with the Yunyang Shen family, nor did they not want to come, but the distance was too far and they could not come.
Not to mention whether the sweet potatoes and potatoes planted by Ling Xue can mature within the calculated time. Even if not, Ling Xue can make the maturity possible by using the wood-based supernatural power in her hands.
Ling Xue set up many checkpoints on the way for the refugees, one to prevent these people from bringing infectious diseases, and the other to eliminate spies sent by various forces.
There is no shortage of food in Yunyang Prefecture where Ling Xue is located, because sweet potatoes and potatoes can be harvested soon, and sweet potato vines and sweet potato leaves can be eaten as food.
Don’t say that old sweet potato vines are not tasty. For these refugees, anything edible is precious, and they are eager to eat more sweet potato vines and leaves.
They can eat Guanyin soil, tree bark and weeds, not to mention these more delicious sweet potato vines and sweet potato leaves?
After passing five or six checkpoints, these refugees felt like they had arrived in heaven.
A row of ten or so large pots were steaming and emitting the aroma of food. Many soldiers in black with red trim were standing guard beside them with serious expressions. Although they wanted to rush over and rob the food, they didn't dare. It was obvious that those people were not theirs to deal with. They had better wait patiently for their turn!
A little kid, about seven or eight years old, stared at the fragrant cauldrons with wide eyes and couldn't help but say to the adults around him, "Dad, this place is so nice, can we stay here?"
His father said to the kid with a look of emotion: "I want to, too, but I don't know if they will let us stay!"
The person nearby immediately chimed in after hearing what they were saying, "We can definitely stay here. I've made inquiries. This Yunyang Prefecture is the territory of the young master of the Shen family. He's kindhearted and can't bear to see the people suffer. He won't turn away anyone who comes to seek refuge. We might even be able to find work!"
"What? Can you still find work?" The people around them were originally listening to them indifferently, but when they heard that they could find work, they finally couldn't help but stand it.
"What kind of work can I find?"
"Will you pay me?"
"What kind of wages do you want? Just give me food!"
"I don't want anything. I just want to stay. At least I won't be captured by soldiers who come from nowhere."
Everyone started to discuss, and the conversation went off topic. They all agreed that Young Master Shen's territory was the safest. They had visited so many places, but this was the only place where no one would randomly arrest people or rob their property.
Although they don't have much money, every family has some hidden treasures that they can take out to deal with emergencies when encountering critical moments.
Just as they were chattering and discussing, the manager in front started shouting at them to line up.
"Everyone line up, the food is ready, and everyone has their own bowls and chopsticks ready!"
As soon as everyone heard that it was time to eat, they immediately started lining up. Although they had never lined up before, no one dared to disobey the manager.
Each person got a bowl of porridge, and the person who sent the rice could fill it up with just a large spoonful. In addition, they also got a chopstick of green salad, which was actually saladed sweet potato leaves.
