Chapter 288: The Great Martial Arts Robbery_1

Chapter 288

About half a month after Cheng Dalei began his military reformation plan, the Mountain Fortress was threatened by a food crisis again.

The sudden addition of five hundred people significantly increased the consumption of food. Cheng Dalei, however, was no longer a novice and knew how to deal with such situations. Over the past few days, he had been sending people to buy food from nearby regions. They had been using the silver left by Mo Mingmi to support them until now, but it had finally run out.

"How many days will the current food supply last?" Cheng Dalei asked.

Li Xingzai silently did the calculations and said, "At most three days."

Cheng Dalei had always needed a man with economic acumen. Previously, Huang Sanyuan filled that role, but he and Gao Feihu had been dispatched to the southlands. Now, Liu Bei held up the Mountain Fortress, but it was more by a fluke than anything. As for Xu Shenji... Well, he was better off being considered a mascot.
