When Jing Xiaotian heard this familiar voice, his heart suddenly felt at ease.
It turned out that Zhao Dan was here too.
He also noticed Jing Xiaotian.
Their eyes met across the distance, full of warmth and relief, and there was an unspoken understanding.
As soon as Zhao Dan finished speaking, someone in the crowd recognized him: "Isn't this Prime Minister Zhao?"
A young man with a vigorous spirit immediately said: "Prime Minister Zhao, you are talking nonsense.
You said that food will not rise unless it rises.
If you let the owner of the grain shop open now, that would be convincing."
Then, some older people also echoed: "It's getting colder and colder.
Such heavy snow will not melt in the whole winter.
The livestock on the grassland will starve to death.
If we can't get food now, we will also starve to death in the spring."
"Yeah, look at this intermittent pattern.
I'm afraid that this year's first snow will become a winter snow that hasn't been seen in many years.
I'm afraid that many people won't be able to survive next spring when the ice and snow melt. ” There was a lot of discussion in the crowd, and they all released the pressure of survival and worries about the future onto Zhao Dan.
Zhao Dan didn't answer, he just stood there calmly, as if waiting for something.
At this time, a group of soldiers escorting the food appeared, with Li Wei at the forefront.
As he walked, he shouted: "The country's grain reserves are enough for us to eat.
Don't worry, everyone.
This is the first batch of grain delivered to the city.
If you want to buy it, just queue up.
Those who hoard grain but don't sell it will let their grain go moldy."
"You stand on a high place and take a look outside.
Not only do we people in Shilan City have food to eat, but people from other tribes also have food to eat.
Look at the black line on the snowy field, it is our convoy delivering food.
We are almost at the horizon, what are you worried about?”
"What era are we in now?
During the Xinghe period, with the support of the Queen Mother and Prime Minister Zhao, the sky of An Dai Kingdom cannot fall."
After Li Wei said this, the crowd seemed to become quieter.
At this time, the carriage carrying the grain also stopped, and those who wanted to rush forward eagerly watched the soldiers open the bags containing the grain.
He quickly stepped forward to grab some rice grains, put them in his hands and looked at them carefully, then as if he couldn't believe them, he put them in his mouth and chewed them.
Then he opened the cloth bag in his hand and said, "Bring me fifty pounds."
When the people nearby heard this, some were eager to buy it, while others held different opinions: "Why buy so much?
If you store too much grain, it won't be eaten by rats.
It's great to put it in the grain depot.
When you want to eat it, , pick it up and buy it.”
"That's right.
Ever since the new king came to the throne and the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister came to power, we have never been hungry."
"I won't buy it.
Why are you taking part in the excitement?
I still have rice at home.
No matter how heavy the snow falls, I believe they will have something to do."
"Let's go home and clear the snow."
Strangely enough, the people who had just gotten up early to stock up on food turned away and stopped buying when they saw the food being delivered.
Those grain shops that had closed their doors and wanted to drive up grain prices saw the situation and quietly opened their shops and started doing business as usual.

At this time, Zhao Dan quietly came to Jing Xiaotian's side, smiled slightly and said: "It's cold after the snow.
Don't stand in the snow for a long time.
Go back and warm up."
Jing Xiaotian stretched out his hand to cover his cheeks that were red from the cold, and asked quietly: "How long will the food in the city be enough to last?"
"If you eat it for half a year, there will be no problem."
Zhao Dan knitted his eyebrows and then added: "However, with such thick snow, the horses, cattle and sheep on the grassland may not be able to bear it."
Jing Xiaotian nodded with a heavy face and said: "I'm afraid the impact of this snow disaster will be considerable, so we must be prepared to provide relief to the victims."
Then he added regretfully: "This day was just getting better, but there was another snowstorm."
After hearing this, Zhao Dan hurriedly comforted and said: "Queen Mother, don't worry, I have sent a message to Xin Buzi of Sitong Bank, asking him to purchase a large amount of grain and grass from Beiyuan Kingdom as soon as possible and hand it over to Ma Qin for delivery one after another.
To each tribe, as long as the population is safe and some cattle and sheep are lost, it doesn’t matter.”
Jing Xiaotian nodded and agreed: "Well, it makes sense.
People are the greatest productive force.
As long as the population is maintained, when the spring breeze blows, the cattle and sheep on the grassland will grow rapidly like grass sprouts."
Then, looking into the distance, he added: "I've suddenly felt a little nostalgic lately."
"Nostalgia" After hearing this, Zhao Dan turned his head and looked specifically into Jing Xiaotian's eyes, wanting to hear her continue.
"Yes, it's been a long time since I've been back to Ziyang's territory."
Jing Xiaotian smiled to herself after saying that.
The disappointment flashing in Zhao Dan's eyes did not escape her eyes.
So, she continued: "I also miss things that happened a long time ago, and I miss the relaxed and comfortable life, where I don't have to calculate all the time, and don't have to worry about losing my head at any time.
Really, here, even if you are in a high position, you are always uneasy and don't know, At what moment and at whose hands he will die, it’s unclear.”
"No matter how hard I try, I am still not used to this kind of barbaric power struggle.
Every life is so fragile, insignificant, and no one cherishes it."
"However, the systems and concepts of that space are not applicable here.
People in this world have not been able to keep up with their thinking and lack of materials."
Zhao Dan nodded repeatedly after hearing this and said with great sympathy: "At first, I thought that I could change the world according to my own will if I had the power.
Now I realize that this idea was too naive.
Social change is the general trend and something that follows the trend.
In fact, It is not based on personal will.”
When Zhao Dan said this, he suddenly stopped.
This was obviously not a topic he was interested in, so he changed the topic: "Actually, I also miss the old days.
I really want to stop late in the summer, sail the sea, and sail in the cold winter.
In, have fun skiing, and, ugh” Zhao Dan couldn't speak any more and sighed heavily.
He concluded: "Those ordinary days that have passed away, now that I think about them, they are really beautiful, so beautiful that my heart trembles."
Jing Xiaotian listened and said quietly: "But if I hadn't come here, I might never have had the chance to get to know you."
After hearing this, Zhao Dan suddenly turned around with a meaningful smile on his face: "Don't you have fallen in love with me?
After becoming the Queen Mother, you are indeed more willful and dare to tell the truth."
Jing Xiaoda did not deny it, and only said: "Do you believe the story of the prince and Cinderella?"
"I don't believe their stories, but I believe my feelings for you."
Zhao Dan's eyes suddenly became fiery, especially intense because he had been suppressed for too long.
"Sister Jing, let's get out of here, please.
Haiye has grown up.
With his mind and courage, he will soon become a wise king and no longer needs your protection."
"Okay, let's go back to the beginning and leave this world and all its troubles behind," Jing Xiaoda said firmly
