Lu Qianxuan’s voice echoed in the area as he continued, "There are many jobs that need to be done. We will recruit everyone, including the elderly, women, and children. The army will provide 3 meals for those who work."
"We will also register everyone’s name and issue new household registration books. After the city is rebuilt, we will distribute land and houses according to each household registration book."
When he finished speaking, Lu Qianxuan glanced at the crowd and added, "This is not the time to drown in self-pity and regret. As long as one is alive, there will always be hope. Let’s rebuild our city and our homes together."
The moment the civilians heard this, they knelt down and shouted in unison, "Thank you, General! Thank you, White Tiger Army!"
Lu Qianxuan left after finishing his speech and let his subordinates handle the work. He still had to write a memorial to report to the Emperor.
pared to yesterday, the people’s moods were more stable today. Now that they had work to do, they were no longer as listless as before.
Since they were busy, they no longer had time to feel depressed. When one had work, they would feel a sense of acplishment and find hope again.
Everyone finished their meal and went to report for work.
Noticing that the situation had more or less stabilized, Fu Chen’an finally had time to enter the shared manor.
The moment he entered the shared manor, he saw his wife was busy baking something in the kitchen.
Hearing the familiar footsteps, Yao Zhi stopped what she was doing and turned around. Noticing her husband’s tired face and dirty appearance, she said, "Husband, you should take a bath and eat something first."
Fu Chen’an nodded and went to the bedroom.
While her husband was taking a bath, Yao Zhi quickly prepared a hearty meal for him. Although there were dishes on the shelf, he might not have had an appetite for meat dishes after the war. So, she prepared light-flavored dishes.
It was already the sixth month, and they had entered summer. The vegetables were having a flash sale in the system’s shop. She bought a lot this morning, and it was a perfect time for her husband to have a taste.
She prepared roasted asparagus, vegetable spring rolls, stir-fried bamboo shoots, and steamed eggs. As a staple, she prepared noodles with chicken broth. There was no chicken meat, just some vegetable toppings and two fried eggs.
To ensure her husband consumed enough vitamins, she made a honey lemon and citron tea.
When Fu Chen’an came to the dining room, the dining table was filled with dishes. He was taken aback to see that there were no meat dishes.
After his wife’s soul changed, she always prepared at least 1 meat dish whenever they had a meal together. So, seeing her prepare so many vegetable dishes for him was a rare sight.
As he took his seat, he heard his wife say, "I guessed that you didn’t have much appetite, so I prepared light-flavored dishes for you. I also made a new drink for you."
Yao Zhi placed a bowl of noodles in front of her husband and added, "Try it and see if the taste suits you."
Fu Chen’an picked up the bowl and took a sip. He tasted the flavor carefully before he nodded. "It’s delicious."
Hearing this, Yao Zhi smiled. "If you like it, then eat more."
Neither of them talked much during their meal as Fu Chen’an was too busy devouring the food. While it was not the first time he killed enemies, he always lost his appetite after a war.
This time was better since the war didn’t even last for half a day. But the depressed and gloomy atmosphere in the city still affected his mood. He was also too busy pleting his tasks and only ate some food stored in his spatial bag to cushion his stomach.
The food prepared by his wife was refreshing and light. It was not greasy, and it soothed the light pain in his stomach. The drink was sour and sweet, which increased his appetite.
When they finished their meal, he had eaten almost everything, leaving only a little behind.
Noticing that he wanted to help her clean up, Yao Zhi stopped him and said, "I can do it, you should go sleep for a while."
Fu Chen’an was really tired and didn’t insist. He let out a hum and went to their bedroom to sleep.
During this time, Yao Zhi cleaned up the table, put the dirty dishes into the dishwasher, and continued baking some bread and cookies for her husband.
She was curious about the situation on his side, but she held back her curiosity. She would ask when he had had enough rest.
When she was done baking, she sat on the couch and opened the system’s orchard. Since she planted the fruit trees, she never sold the fruits and only took some to eat by herself.
Now that she had opened the orchard’s warehouse, she realized that the amount of fruit was overwhelming. To save space, the automatic management system used the fruits as ingredients and produced several types of products.
Besides fruit juice, there were also fruit jams, dried fruits, candied fruits, canned fruits, and even fruit jelly.
Some products were made by adding milk or other ingredients, such as fruit butter and cheese, fruit yogurt, fruit wine, vinegar, ciders, sorbets, gelatos, ice creams, and glazes.
The moment she saw these products, Yao Zhi finally realized that although the bandit System liked to fleece her wallet, the features she unlocked were actually worth the price.
She took out some fresh fruits, candied fruits, dried fruits, and fruit juice for her husband. Since she didn’t know which type he liked, she prepared a little bit of each type.
When she was done, she opened her system’s animal farm and checked the warehouse. The warehouse was almost full at this moment.
Fish raised in the pond reproduced very quickly, and the daily output of eggs was overwhelming. To avoid overflooding the warehouse, she sold 90% of the total amount of fish and eggs stored in the warehouse.
