Chapter 395: Chapter 395 Mother G.o.d’s Manifestation (16)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Third Prince stared at the field of white potatoes and immediately recalled the kind and dignified female voice in his dream. He suddenly s.h.i.+vered and realized—could she be Mother G.o.d?
But why did a G.o.ddess choose him to promote sweet potatoes?
That’s not right either. He was carrying this out all along, but due to the lack of seeds, it hadn’t gone smoothly.
However, with these white sweet potatoes, he could go all out in the future.
He thought of the dream of County Magistrate Kong getting switched, and his heart suddenly tightened. Could it be true…
When did that happen? Why didn’t he receive any news about it?
“Don’t touch these sweet potatoes,” he said to the young general in front of him. “Watch them carefully. We’ll make arrangements tomorrow.
“Also, inform the kitchens to let everyone have a full meal tomorrow morning. Turn the meat we can’t eat right now into cured meat as soon as possible.”
“Understood. I will make the arrangements.” The young general responded with a smile, turned around, and ran off.
Since there was finally food and meat, although they could not eat their fill at every meal like before the disasters, they would not have to go hungry anymore.
After he left, the Third Prince walked around outside. After ensuring the entire campsite was truly filled with sweet potatoes, he turned around and returned to his room.
Seeing Zhou Huaiming sitting in the room yawning, he asked, “Cousin, you’re awake too?”
“They tried to keep their voices down, but it was still noisy. Naturally, 1 couldn’t stay asleep.” Zhou Huaiming laughed. “We would have paid our respects a few days earlier if we had known that Mother G.o.d was this efficient. We would have been able to save ourselves two days of hunger.
“By the way, do you want to transport more food to the North?”
The Third Prince shook his head. “No. 1’11 write my grandfather and uncle a letter and tell them to wors.h.i.+p the Mother G.o.d Temple. As for the existing sweet potatoes, I want to use them as seeds and do my best to promote them.”
Zhou Huaiming was stunned momentarily and asked, “Why doesn’t Mother G.o.d just distribute the sweet potatoes to the villagers?”
As far as he knew, many villages had obtained food in the past few days, but most of it was mixed flour.
Only a few families with serious illnesses, pregnant women, and infants would get a small number of fine grains or eggs.
However, white sweet potatoes had never appeared before. This was why they didn’t expect it to appear here.
“The mixed noodles are only for filling their stomachs; they can’t be as tasty as the sweet potato.
“If the sweet potatoes were given out to the disaster refugees, I’m sure more than half of them would eat them instead of planting them.
“Judging from the situation of distributing grains, the amount of food in Mother G.o.d’s hands is definitely limited.
“Or rather, there were too many people affected by the disaster this time, so her reserves aren’t enough.
“No matter what, these seeds are precious and can’t be wasted.” Afterward, the Third Prince took out a rough map of the Ming Dynasty and a piece of paper. “Since you’re here, gather all the tacticians. We’ll calculate how to distribute these seeds overnight and how much each county will get,”
“I feel that we should naturally distribute them to the places with more people first. I’ve heard that in some places, in addition to refugees, the majority of the officials have fled.
“We’ll do as you say.
“First, mark down the places with more people, especially Dongyang, where there is less chaos.
“There’s also the south, where we could plant another season of potatoes, which will be beneficial to promote these white potatoes to the ma.s.ses.
“The rest will be distributed to the various state capitals.”
“I understand. You should go to bed first. I will come up with a detailed plan with the rest and pa.s.s it on to you then.”
“Let’s just go together. There are so many sweet potatoes outside, and there’s no way 1 can sleep now.”
“I’ll go gather the others.” Zhou Huaiming turned around and left after that..
