At the end of the Jing Dynasty, there was a severe drought for three years.
There was grain on the accounts of the Changping warehouse, but the warehouse was so empty that rats could run away; there was a disaster relief seal on the door of the charity warehouse, but only moldy rice and sand were left inside; the military grain transported by the grain escort to the disaster area disappeared halfway, the people sold their sons and daughters, and the refugees fled south in droves.
In her previous life, Shen Mingzhu was the proprietress of an emergency supermarket in the apocalypse. She died in the fire of the supermarket. When she opened her eyes again, she became a peasant woman who was about to be squeezed out by her relatives on the way to escape the famine.
Her husband, Lu Yanchuan, went missing while taking food supplies, and his life and death are unknown.
Her husband's family thought she was a burden, and her mother's family was even more ruthless and wanted to sell her four-year-old daughter Lu Xiaoman to Ren Yazi in exchange for half a bag of grain.
The first thing Shen Mingzhu did when she woke up was to smash Ren Yazi's hand, take her daughter back, and break off the marriage in public.
From then on, she took her three children on the road to escape.
Others gnawed tree bark, grabbed muddy water, and broke their heads for a morsel of food.
However, she relied on her portable supermarket and modern survival experience to turn a handful of broken rice into several kinds of life-saving food, and turned snakes, fish, and grass roots in the wilderness into a way of survival.
She can purify water, prevent epidemics, grow grain, store grain, make dry food, set up grain registers, and establish rules.
She rescued children, took in refugees, built Qinglan Valley, opened Shenji Food Store, Shenji Clinic, built schools, and trained Lanshan Guards.
But with the appearance of the short knife with the word "liang", a piece of broken oil paper also revealed a deeper secret:
[The grain truck has not arrived.
[Old warehouse in Wuling.
[Don't trust official seals.
Where did the military rations that her husband Lu Yanchuan escorted back then go?
There is no food in the official warehouse and the victims starve to death. Is it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?
When grain merchants hoarded grain, officials sold warehouses, and rebel troops besieged the city, Shen Mingzhu finally understood——
To survive in troubled times, food is the foundation.
But what can really save people is never just a warehouse of food.
