"Xia Mi? Is there going to be a severe drought?"
Fu Bao, who was lying on the mat, was stunned for a moment.
After thinking about it carefully, it seems that since the weather got warmer, they really haven't had any serious rain here. She had no special feelings about this.
wrong!
It seems that during this period, in order to not have to stay in the house, she has been looking forward to good weather and being able to play in the yard.
Could it be that it's my fault again
Fu Bao quickly began to pray, praying to God for rain as soon as possible.
In this era, one depends on the sky for food.
If it doesn't rain, the crops will dry up and the vegetation in the mountains will not be able to withstand it. A spark may cause a huge wildfire.
In later generations, the Amazon forest fires, Australian fires, and American fires all seemed to be caused by too hot weather.
Just thinking about the billowing smoke in the video makes people feel panicked.
Although Fu Bao was praying hard, she was not sure whether it would work.
Although she is God's most beloved child, praying for rain is no small matter.
It's like children making requests to their parents. If you want a lollipop, a small toy or something, the value is not high, and you can get your wish by just finding a convenience store or supermarket.
But if you ask your parents for a car or a house, even if your parents are extremely wealthy, they won't be able to get them for you from the roadside.
What's more, your parents may not agree to your request.
In Fu Bao's view, she now wants God to make it rain, which is a relatively big request.
Look at the sky, it's as clear as a blue, not even a single cloud. How can it be so easy to make it rain
Still, keep your fingers crossed!
Fu Bao prayed intently, and soon fell asleep.
When Mr. Xu and Mrs. Xu saw Fu Bao sleeping, they stopped talking in the yard and took Fu Bao back to the house.
At the beginning of spring, I quickly collected the mat, cleaned it, and brought it back to the house to prevent the mat from being exposed to the sun and getting hot.
…
Fu Bao had a dream.
In the dream, she kept running, running under the scorching sun.
The sun was so blazing that she felt dehydrated.
Clouds are constantly flying across the sky, and occasionally clouds cover the sun.
However, there was no rain.
When Fu Bao woke up from her dream, she was covered in sweat.
"Good baby, good baby!"
"Did you have a nightmare?"
"Hey, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mother is here!"
Mrs. Xu's soft voice appeared clearly in Fu Bao's ears, and Fu Bao gradually regained consciousness.
Yes, she had a nightmare!
From a very early age, Fubao no longer had nightmares.
As God's most beloved cub, she rarely has nightmares. And every nightmare is an omen.
In other words, there will really be a severe drought this year.
And this severe drought was not caused by her.
Although I'm glad it's not my fault.
However, an inevitable severe drought will eventually come, which makes Fu Bao unhappy.
In a year of severe drought, there will be no harvest.
For the people of this era, whether it is drought or flood, it is a disaster that makes them desperate.
However, in the face of this disaster sent by God, Fubao was powerless.
She is just God's most beloved cub, the important point is "cub".
In this world, God is the one who really controls everything.
…
The sky is still sunny, day after day.
The villagers in the village have been working on drought relief from morning to night.
Even with the waterwheel, the scorching weather without any rain stars made everyone a little irritable, as if they could explode with just a little spark.
Fu Bao prays to heaven and earth, but every time she prays, she falls asleep and dreams of running under the scorching sun.
After having this dream many times in a row, Fubao was already desperate.
It is impossible to pray.
In this situation, all we can do is fight against the sky, whose power is infinite.
In order to combat the drought, the villagers began to grow sweet potato seedlings and prepare to plant sweet potatoes with strong drought resistance in large areas. As for other crops in the field, they have been basically abandoned.
Except for the fields near the Peach Blossom River, in other fields, the villagers endured their heartache and destroyed all the crops in the fields and planted sweet potato seedlings instead.
The strong man breaks his wrist!
In order to survive, I can no longer control too much.
Of course, there are also some people who are holding on to the last chance, hoping that God will rain.
But the facts are destined to disappoint them.
Mr. Xu was already quietly stocking up on grains, and would only transport the purchased grains back home when it was dark and no one was around.
At the same time, Shen Wansheng, the magistrate of Xiangyi Prefecture, was not idle either. He had already handed over the information about the drought in Xiangyi Prefecture. The government-run plan for horse-drawn freight and passenger transport that Mr. Xu had discussed with him could only be put on hold because of the severe drought.
In this year of severe drought, people may not have enough to eat, so how can they still have the ability to raise horses
…
Sanhe Town, Zhao Family Inn.
Zhao Bingzhen did not continue to lie down, but wandered in the backyard.
Many facts have shown that Xiangyi Prefecture is really going to encounter a severe drought this year.
"Xiaowu, you go back to the capital and use all the strength of the Zhao family to transport grain to Xiangyi Mansion."
After Zhao Bingzhen walked around the yard for a few times, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zhao Rui, who was standing in the shade of a tree enjoying the cool air.
"Now?! It's such a hot day?"
Zhao Rui was dumbfounded.
It was really getting hotter and hotter today. He was standing in the shade of a tree wearing a short shirt and shorts, dripping with sweat. Rushing to the capital on such a hot day would cost him his life!
"nonsense!"
"How about you stay here and I go back to the capital?"
Zhao Bingzhen stared.
Zhao Rui could only give in.
If his senior brothers and sisters found out that he was so unfilial, he would probably be kicked out of his family without even having to ask his master.
"Master, didn't you never get involved in these things before?"
"At this time, shouldn't it be the emperor who shows kindness to the people?"
Zhao Rui looked at his master with some confusion.
In the past few years, droughts and floods occurred in many places in the Tang Dynasty, but his master never asked anyone to do anything. Why is this an exception
"Xiao Wu, what do you think, your master and I will discuss a title with the emperor?"
"What?"
Upon hearing what Zhao Bingzhen said, Zhao Rui jumped up and said, "Master, please don't let your mind wander!"
"Get out of here!"
Zhao Bingzhen smiled and said, "If you can't think about it, your master won't be able to think about it!"
"However, I will decide on this title, your master!"
Hearing Zhao Bingzhen's decisive words, Zhao Rui looked desperate and said: "It's over, it's over, Master, you are trying to tie yourself up!"
"Now that you have a title, you are no longer a commoner!"
"If we do business again, we will be under the control of the clan government!" (End of Chapter)
