Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    There are only a few grain shops in the huge city of Ganzhou. In order to ensure that there is no shortage of food in the city, Daohua did not send people to buy food at the grain shops in the city, but sent people to other health centers to buy food.

    Ganzhou Guard Command and Envoy Department.

    Fan Tong, who had just returned to the city for two days, found out about this and shook his head disapprovingly: "You are really rich. You use money to buy food and help refugees."

    On the other side, Xia Jianren, a fellow commander, sneered at the side: "If you like it, why do you care so much?"

    Fan Tong is a rough and reckless man, while Xia Jianren looks a bit like a scholar, but the fox eyes on his face often reveal the light of shrewd calculation.

    Fan Tong was a little dissatisfied: "Old Xia, don't make such sarcastic remarks here. You know very well that they can't buy food without Mr. Wei's approval. But there are more and more refugees outside the city, and there is really going to be a riot.  Can you and I just sit there and do nothing?"

    Xia Jianren smiled: "Why not? Doesn't Xiao Yeyang want to take over the Ganzhou Guard? Then let him solve it himself."

    Fan Tong frowned: "I understand that you want to embarrass Xiao Yeyang, but the people are innocent. And Mr. Wei also said that we will not be allowed to go against him."

    Xia Jianren: "Who wants to confront him? We just don't take the lead. If Xiao Yeyang comes to the guardhouse, we will do whatever he orders."

    Thinking that there were already 30,000 to 40,000 refugees outside the city, Fan Tong couldn't help but sigh: "If I had known that I would come back, I wouldn't have spread the news that I was giving soup outside the city."

    Xia Jianren heard this and sneered: "You are such a reckless man, are you going to disobey Mr. Wei for Xiao Yeyang?"

    Fan Tong remained silent.

    He had a vague feeling in his heart that this was wrong, but he was used to obeying orders and couldn't think of a reason why.

    ?¡­

    Xiao Mansion.

    "Girl, the price of food in the city has increased!"

    In the hall, Yan Shouhou reported the information he found to Daohua.

    After hearing this, Daohua placed the teacup in her hand heavily on the table.

    Yesterday, Xiao Yeyang said that someone didn't want them to have a better life. She didn't feel it deeply, but today, as soon as she sent out the people to buy food, the price of food rose. She could clearly feel the strong malice.

    This is because they are fat sheep, and they want to bite them hard, and then kick them out of Xiliang.

    Yan Shouhou glanced at the rice flowers: "Girl, if the food supply in other health centers has also increased, should we continue to buy food?"

    Daohua: "Keep buying, butthe amount of grain purchased each time should be controlled within a hundred stones."

    Yan Shouhou frowned: "If this is the case, I'm afraid it won't be able to support the expenses of the house."

    Daohua: "Do as I say, and you don't have to worry about the rest." She didn't expect to buy much food in Xiliang.

    Yan Shouhou nodded and quickly retreated.

    As soon as he left, Bishi came over with Dongli.

    Dongli saluted Daohua: "Prince Princess, you have something to give me to your subordinates?"

    Daohua nodded: "Now that the government is short of food, I want you to take two hundred guards to Ninglu Province."

    Ninglu Province is next to Xiliang. If we transport grain from there, we can arrive in half a month if we work hard.

    Dongli: "The Crown Princess wants me to buy food?"

    Daohua: "It's not buying food, it's borrowing food."

    The farther north you go, the lower the grain output is, and the more expensive the food price is. Tens or hundreds of shi of grain is nothing, but the cost of grain of more than 10,000 shi is huge.

    Although Xiao Yeyang didn't say anything, through inquiring and reading during this period, she knew that there were nearly 50,000 border troops stationed in Ganzhou Guard, plus the refugees outside the city, and the food consumed every day was a terrifying figure.

    "If you have to spend money to buy all these, even gold and silver won't be enough."

    Dong Li frowned, feeling that Daohua was a little too whimsical, and reminded him tactfully: "Prince Concubine, life is not easy over there in Ninglu. I'm afraid they won't lend us food."

    Daohua took out a jade pendant: "Envoy Ninglu is a member of Governor Wu's clan. If you bring this jade pendant and you are a member of the imperial uncle, he will definitely meet you."

    Dong Li took the jade pendant and when he saw the word "Wu" on it, he remembered that the imperial concubine had saved Governor Wu's life when he was in Zhongzhou.

    Daohua continued: "Of course, this is just a stepping stone. It is not enough to ask Ninglu to borrow food." After saying that, he handed over another letter.

    Dong Li took the letter: "This is it?"

    Daohua smiled and said: "I have inquired and Wu Buzheng Envoy has arrived."He served three consecutive terms in Ninglu, but the reason why he has never been transferred back to Beijing is mainly because of his poor political performance.  "

    "The situation in Ninglu is better than that in Xiliang, but it's not much better. Grain production has never been high. Without grain, the population cannot grow. Without people, where can we get taxes and political achievements?"

    "You tell him that as long as he agrees to borrow grain, I can return the grain to him in April or May next year. At the same time, I will give priority to providing high-yielding grain seeds to Ninglu for three years."

    Although high-yield grain varieties have been promoted for some years, Daxia has a vast territory, and the amount allocated to each province every year is not large. Ninglu is the last province, and the amount allocated is even less.

    After hearing this, Dongli's brows slowly widened, and all provinces were rushing to get high-yielding grains: "After my subordinates reported to the old man, they immediately took the people and set off."

    Daohua smiled and nodded: "I asked people to prepare dry food and gifts for the Wu family's women. Remember to pick them up later."

    Dong Li nodded and retreated.

    Daohua had already told Gu Jian in advance, and when Dongli passed by, Gu Jian agreed.

    Doctor Ge was also there. When he saw Dongli leaving, he was a little worried: "Can I borrow food?"

    Gu Jian smiled and nodded: "Yes."

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Just because the person who went was Dongli, Wu had to give some face.

    The master behind Dongli is the emperor, and now he is serving him as the newly minted auxiliary prince. In addition, there is Prince Ping's Mansion. As long as Wu Buzheng is still willing to climb up, he will help him.

    I have to say that the apprentice is very good at choosing people.

    ?¡­

    Lanwu Guard is next to Ganzhou Guard, and Xiao Yeyang returned the same day and night.

    Daohua saw his frown and did not ask Commander Lan Wuwei about borrowing food. She just told Dongli about sending him to Ninglu to borrow food: "Don't worry, I will definitely get food for you."  .¡±

    Xiao Yeyang hugged Daohua: "Fortunately, you are here."

    After taking over the Ganzhou Guard, he had to take care of defense as well as civil affairs. Only then did he realize that human power is limited. In addition, there were not many available people around him, and there were still people who were restricting him everywhere, so he was unable to do many things.  .

    Daohua hugged Xiao Yeyang back: "We are husband and wife, we should help each other."

    Xiao Yeyang rubbed his forehead: "The situation in Xiliang is more responsible than I thought. I originally thought that Lan Wuwei's commander was not taken seriously and could be used for his own purposes, but he was not moved at all.  "

    Daohua rubbed Xiao Yeyang¡¯s temples, thinking that they had to face the eager gazes of the Xiliao people, she felt her head hurt.

    ?¡­

    The commander of the capital is the envoy.

    Wei Hongcai looked at the message sent by Commander Lan Wuwei with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.

    The master next to him smiled and said: "Xiao Yeyang thought this was in the capital, and thought that anyone would betray his reputation as the prince of the palace."

    Wei Hongcai laughed and said: "Pang Guang is so understanding this time, not because he is looking at us, but because he feels that Xiao Yeyang came to Xiliang just for show and will leave soon. He just doesn't want to get involved."

    Master: "No matter what, as long as it is beneficial to you, it is a good thing."

    Wei Hongcai smiled and said: "Find a few thugs to sneak into the refugees. As long as the soup supply stops, let them incite the refugees to cause trouble."

    Master: "I will make arrangements right now." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
