" Thirty-five hundred shi of grain, if it were in Jinyang, Liu Deng wouldn't even look at it.
With just this little thing, do you think you are a beggar?
It¡¯s just that at this time, these grains have become extremely valuable, but looking at his look, Liu Deng knew in his heart that this kid should have a back-up plan!
"Mr. Tian, ??you want to buy your own life for just such a small thing. Don't you think your life is too worthless?"
Liu Deng played with the jade pendant in his hand and said meaningfully.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty"
Beads of sweat suddenly appeared on Tian Suning's forehead, but a look of surprise appeared on his face. He seemed to have heard what Liu Deng meant.
Liu Deng is just idle now. He has brought out too few things and does not say that his sin is unforgivable.
"The king gives me another five days, and I can raise another five thousand stones of food!"
Since learning that Liu Xiongqu¡¯s rebellion failed, Tian Suning has never felt at ease.
¡°After all, as a domestic historian of Jiaodong, he would probably be captured even if he fled to the ends of the earth.
Death was the only option in the ages. After struggling on the edge of life and death for so long, he finally heard a glimmer of hope. Now he was really pleasantly surprised.
"I don't have that much time, two days, you only have two days! If you can get ten thousand shi of grain, it will be yours, not to mention the position of county magistrate!"
While Liu Deng was speaking, he placed the jade pendant in his hand on the table and made a crisp sound.
After receiving the news, Tian Suning almost jumped up.
This was the guarantee he wanted day and night, but then his expression dimmed. Ten thousand stones of food in two days was simply an impossible task.
After all, at this time, food is a scarce commodity in the entire Jimo city.
The private grain merchants originally still had some inventory, but now it is all in the hands of the Sihai Trading Company.
Now, even if he sells all the property, land and properties in his family, the food he can get in the end is only five thousand dan.
??????????????????????????Even if he were torn into pieces, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to get out the remaining five thousand stones
"Your Highness, this time is a bit too short"
Tian Suning said with some embarrassment.
"According to the laws of this dynasty, a county like Qixian should have a total of two county captains and one county magistrate. Do you understand what I am talking about?"
Liu Deng also knew that this was indeed a bit difficult, so he relaxed the conditions again.
Although these three official positions are not worth mentioning, if it were a few months ago, if anyone came to Tian Suning with these three official positions to ask whether he wanted to go, he would probably be kicked out directly.
"But now it's time to change. Although the official positions of these three officials are small, the problem is that they are in different counties.
That was under the rule of Liu Deng. No matter how small the official position was, it was still an official. It was better than being beheaded directly!
"I understand, I understand, I understand!"
Tian Suning nodded repeatedly, and the shackles on his body made a clicking sound.
"From now on, if you have nothing to do, don't bring this thing with you. Just keep it in your mind! I will be waiting for news from you in two days!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Tian Suning kowtowed to Liu Deng repeatedly. This time he really came from the bottom of his heart. After all, for them, this was a real life-saving grace!
Among the officials of the Han Dynasty, the name of Tingwei Zhidu was absolutely intimidating. Many people even said that among the cruel officials in ancient and modern times, there were few who could compare with Zhidu!
With their small bodies, if this fell into the hands of Zhidu, they would probably die in prison before long!
After Tian Suning left, Liu Deng finally let out a long breath. He originally didn't want to get involved in the Jiaodong Kingdom.
Especially in this sensitive time, even if there is a reason, at this time, it is really difficult for the emperor and the prince not to misunderstand.
However, this can be regarded as a stopgap measure. It will take at least more than half a month to deliver food from Jinyang!
During this period, we can¡¯t let these people go hungry!
However, even if these thirteen thousand stones of food are obtained, this can only solve an urgent need.
"These people must be self-sufficient. Otherwise, they will rely on Liu Deng to support them. Then Liu Deng will not be able to do this in this county."What?
The most urgent thing is to let them find a way to resume production first. This is the most important thing.
"But without those strong laborers and relying on these old and weak women and children, how on earth will we produce?"
The more Liu Deng thought about it, the more headache he got. This damn thing is really a dead end!
"What on earth are we asking the people of this strange county to do?"
How can these old, weak, women and children be able to earn a living?
Until it got dark, Liu Deng still didn¡¯t pay much attention, which made him a little irritable.
Even Du Ziteng, who came to deliver the meal, was rudely kicked out by Liu Deng.
"Your Majesty, this is the chicken soup that Mr. Tian specially sent to Your Majesty. Your Majesty, you'd better use some!"
Seeing that the night was getting darker, Liu Deng still stood there sighing, and Du Ziteng plucked up his courage and walked in again holding a small earthen jar.
After all, Liu Deng only ate a few snacks that day. If he really suffered from hunger, he would be guilty of a huge crime.
"Crock pot?"
Liu Deng¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up. This seems to be really possible!
¡°This clay pot, how much does it cost for the cheapest one on the street market?¡±
Liu Deng¡¯s eyes suddenly lit up, and then he asked confusedly.
"Huh? This"
¡° Du Ziteng was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what Liu Deng was planning to do.
"Stop talking nonsense and answer whatever I ask you!"
Liu Deng excitedly began to circle back and forth in the room, and he kept rubbing his hands.
"Such a big one, if it's about the size of a fist, it costs about a penny. If it's this big, it costs about ten pence"
While Du Ziteng was speaking, he placed the chicken soup in front of Liu Deng and said after considering it.
"Hahahahaha! Sure enough, there is no end to the road! Hahahaha!"
Liu Deng burst out laughing, why didn¡¯t he think of this earlier!
"Your Majesty? Are you okay?"
Seeing Liu Deng¡¯s excitement, Du Ziteng was a little baffled. He really didn¡¯t know what was wrong with Liu Deng.
"What's the matter with my king? Go out now and buy some trash fish for me! I want the cheapest trash fish!"
Liu Deng suddenly became energetic. Jimo City is not far from the sea. If you ride a horse, it is only about two days' journey.
In the city, even ordinary people can eat fish three or five times a month, although what they eat is the cheapest trash fish.
However, compared to the people in the interior, this is already considered very good!
"Your Majesty, it's already dark today. Where can I buy fish? Otherwise, can we do it early tomorrow morning"
" Du Ziteng is a little depressed, something is not right with his king tonight! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
