Later, Li Shan and others actually had no choice but to help too many villagers. They could only move some dried yams and potatoes from the cellar and give them to relatives and neighbors who had a good relationship with their family and were also good people.

Then I have to give some to my daughter-in-law.

Let the daughter-in-law support her mother's family a little bit. After all, she can't let her daughter-in-law watch their own parents starve.

As for the rest, they are really powerless.

Even though Tiezhu's daughter-in-law Ouyang Juan has sent hundreds of kilograms of rice and noodles recently, they are still powerless because there are more than a dozen people in their family, and several hundred kilograms of rice and noodles are not enough for their family of more than a dozen people.

.

Not to mention supporting others.

Nowadays, the daughter-in-law's mother's family and close relatives and neighbors can provide some support because they basically do not keep any refined rice or flour, and most of the rice and flour are replaced by whole grains.

On December 3rd, the whole family was there at noon.

After Li Jianguo finished lunch, he rarely went back to the house immediately. Instead, he sat at the dining table and pondered for a while:

"Recently, I have asked many people in our community who are over 70 years old, especially some in their 80s and 90s, about what happened more than 60 years ago. They have quite clear memories of the situation back then. There are many people in the village who were originally

The older ones and those in poor health were not able to bear it, and several newborn children died because they had no milk or other food to eat.

I sorted it out carefully and found that not many people actually starved to death directly. For those who are older and in poor health, if each person can get a few dozen kilograms more rice, or a bag of corn, sweet potatoes, etc., they will be very happy.

Maybe if it lasts, those kids can get a few more bags of the most common, without added milk powder, and they can survive.

It's been a few months.

You can drink rice cereal later..."

"So, you can't bear to help, right?"

Ouyang Juan was not stupid, how could she not hear the implication of her husband's words? She asked bluntly at this time.

Li Jianguo did not deny this:

"Yes, I want to help. I did a careful calculation this morning. I only need about five thousand kilograms of grain. No matter what kind of grain it is, as long as it is edible grain, we should be able to save our village from death...

In addition, if there are two more boxes of whole milk powder.

Several boxes of nutritious rice cereal.

It can also prevent those children from dying young.

You can buy a pound of cheap grain for RMB 50. Five thousand kilograms of grain is actually only one month’s salary. As for milk powder, instead of infant formula, just buy ordinary whole milk powder. It’s not expensive. Eighteen hundred yuan is enough.

.

After all, it only costs 10,000 yuan, and since 10,000 yuan can save so many lives, it’s quite a bargain!”

Sometimes, if you don't know something and can't help, that's fine. But if you know it and you are really capable of helping, it's not too troublesome. Turning a blind eye will really make you feel guilty.

Not to mention, Li Jianguo went out of his way to ask some elders in the village about the details of that year. Although it was not as vivid as it could be, it was still unbearable.

"Mom, I still have some savings in my hand!"

"I...I also have some New Year's money left..."

Li Fan and Li Lan are very loyal. The most important thing is that they have checked some information recently, and just by looking at the information, they feel that people's life at that time was really hard.

If they can help, they are still happy to help.

The money you have in hand to buy some food to save lives is obviously more valuable than buying game skins, face creams and the like.

Ouyang Juan rolled her eyes at them at this time:

"Are you two scorning me, or do you think you three are the only ones in the family who have a conscience and a kind heart? I am cold-blooded and ruthless. I don't object to you being kind, but have you ever thought about buying five thousand kilograms of grain out of nowhere?

, how do you explain being seen by a neighbor?

Have you ever thought that besides Xiaoli Village, there are other villages in that world whose situation is similar to that of Xiaoli Village, or even worse than Xiaoli Village? How can the daughters-in-law from other villages marry into Xiaoli Village not to worry about them?

Do you care about your biological father and mother in other villages? If your daughter marries a villager in Xiaoli Village in another village, can you not worry about your daughter?

Aren’t you worried about whether your children are hungry or whether your grandchildren are hungry?

So is five thousand kilograms of grain really enough?

It would be fine if they could keep it secret, but if they couldn't keep it secret and the news got out, relatives in other villages would try their best to borrow food. If it was known to others that the food came from Li Zhu, maybe your biological father would then

Whether or not your home can be saved is a question. Have you ever considered these issues? You just want to help because you are so excited and don’t think about anything else!”

Many things in this world are not that simple.

It’s not about playing games. When someone is hungry, get some food. When someone is fed, it’s done immediately. People’s hearts and humanity are all issues that need to be considered. People are not NPCs in the game, let alone people who are still hungry.

To put it bluntly, if the news that there is food in Xiaoli Village leaks out, there will be a fight between the two villages, and someone will come to steal the food in the middle of the night.

Nothing strange!

"Mom, are you thinking too much?" Li Lan, who had always lived in a peaceful and well-off environment, obviously found it difficult to understand what her mother said.

Li Fan, on the other hand, recalled what he had seen two days ago, the news of a large-scale fight for water between two villages more than fifty years ago. Although those two villages had nothing to do with Xiaoli Village,

But there shouldn't be any problem if those two villages are used as a warning.

After all, the two villages were fighting for water to irrigate crops, and irrigating crops was not just for a good harvest.

In order to have enough to eat?

"Maybe we have to think about it in the long term, but we can think about it in the long term, but I'm afraid some people won't be able to survive!"

Li Jianguo also listened to his wife's words, and at the same time he frowned in worry. If he had to really worry about everything and think it through, this matter would indeed be quite troublesome.

"Jianguo, why don't we find a way to hand over the refrigerator to the state? No matter how hard our family tries our best, we can't actually help many people. Even if we sell all the houses and clear out all the money, we can only help a few people at most.

The people of one village, or more than a dozen villages, could barely survive from starvation. Generally speaking, it was a drop in the bucket.

You can say help, but we can’t help.

If I don't help, I feel guilty.

It is better to leave it to the state. A little leakage from the fingers of the national grain depot is enough to help tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people!

Although I don’t know if the country is willing to pay for this kind of thing unilaterally, I think that even if it is to study the space channel, the country will definitely be willing to send something there in the early stage. After all, the space channel will only open if it sends something there.

It’s easy to study!

This should be the best way.

There is so little we can do as a family!

Look, after all this time, Li Fan hasn’t collected much useful information yet!"

In fact, Ouyang Juan had the idea of ​​handing her father-in-law the refrigerator to the state a long time ago. After all, this thing is of no benefit to their family. It is scary to keep it at home and feel like they are being watched by her father-in-law all the time.

Instead, it is left to the state for research. Maybe some high-precision technology can be developed that will be helpful to the entire country. As for the Li family, they even want to research it.

I don’t have the ability to do research!

Speaking of this, Ouyang Juan turned her head and said directly to the refrigerator, that is, Qu Jie: "Father!

If you want to help more people, I'm afraid you have to ask the country to help. Otherwise, the most we can do is help our Xiaoli Village, and then you and your whole family in the parallel dimension may be in some danger because of this!"

In response to this, Qu Jie did not speak for the time being. Instead, Li Jianguo asked: "But even if my father agrees, how can we hand over the things to the country? Can you contact the chief minister of the cabinet, or can you

What’s the matter, we don’t have any channels for submission?”

Well...this is indeed a problem.

As soon as these words came out, Ouyang Juan was speechless!

Yes, it is easy to say that handing over the country is easy. Just touch your upper and lower lips and the four words will come out easily. But how do you contact the chief minister of the cabinet and make the other party believe this?

, it is undoubtedly quite difficult and difficult to do.

After a long time, Li Lan finally spoke and proposed one after another:

"Why don't you try the Sheriff's mailbox?"

"I remember that the cabinet also has a mailbox. Is it useful to put the general situation in the cabinet mailbox?"

“It doesn’t feel very reliable.

Whether it is the Sheriff's mailbox or the Cabinet mailbox, it should not be checked personally by the Sheriff or the Chief Minister of the Cabinet. Someone must have done the screening first. Such outrageous things like ours will be regarded as a prank or nonsense at the beginning.

Just delete it!"

"Uh...it does happen!"

"Then what can we do? Is it possible to record some videos and upload them to the Internet, spend money to buy some promotion, so as to attract other people's active attention and let the country come to us?"

"It feels so hard to get angry!"

"How about I go find the chief minister of the cabinet myself?"

During the serious exchange and discussion, Qu Jie's words were inserted quite abruptly. Then the family of four did not react at first and continued the discussion. It was not until they discussed for several more sentences that they finally realized and turned to look at the refrigerator. Then, there was

Li Jianguo first asked in surprise:

"Dad, was it you who was talking just now?"

"It's me who's talking. You forgot. I told you before that I can transfer my consciousness to any other refrigerator at will. So instead of relying on you to figure out how to hand me over to the country, I might as well do it myself.
To be continued...
