Yue Rushuang: "Why did she want to kill you?"
Xing'er said: "The slaves know where she hid the money. She probably wants to kill the slaves to silence her."
Yue Rushuang quickly praised her.
"Well done. If you sense danger, the first thing you do is run to protect yourself."
"Girl, let me cook you something delicious. What do you want to eat?"
"This slave wants to eat meat."
Yue Rushuang smiled and said, "Then buy it yourself."
Yue Rushuang took out a small piece of silver and gave it to Xing'er.
Xing'er took the silver and went happily.
Yue Rushuang just heard Xing'er mention the dead soldiers.
Death warrior.
Death warriors are all used to kill people.
Yue Rushuang glanced at the prince and said, "Could this prince be King Chenliu again?"
Yue Rushuang thought to herself: "It's okay if your father doesn't worry about it, but your uncle doesn't worry about it either."
The prince said: "Don't worry, I have already given instructions to Cang Qing from the Bailuo Sect, and he will definitely tell Liu Xiangu."
"The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, just wait."
Seeing that the prince was confident, Yue Rushuang felt relieved.
Isn't it just an assassination?
As long as you knock the emperor out and bring him into space, you won't be able to find him and you will assassinate him.
Just as Yue Rushuang was about to go back to the house, she saw Xing'er coming back.
Behind him were the four major grain merchants.
"Girl, Zhao Qian and Sun Li are here."
The four grain shop owners, whose surnames are combined together, happen to be Zhao Qian and Sun Li.
Yue Rushuang...
If you don't come, I will come to your door.
The four of them all knew that Young Master Yue was the Crown Princess.
The princess made a rice transplanter and gave rice seedlings to farmers for free. This matter has spread throughout Quzhou and Changzhou.
The four people put in a lot of grain and stored it in the granary. As Yue Rushuang said, the price of food in Changzhou soared, and the price of food in Quzhou also soared.
However, if the settlement continues, I am afraid that grain merchants from other places will also get the news. If they all transport grain to Changzhou, the price of grain will drop again.
What they didn't know was that Yue Rushuang had already had this news spread out before they were deceived.
Grain merchants from other places didn't believe it at first. They all observed and found that there were only some small shops selling grain in Quzhou, and the prices were getting higher day by day. The same was true in Changzhou.
Businessmen are the shrewdest, and now many grain merchants from other places have arrived.
"Princess, this is your last bank note. You have done so much for Changqu and the two states, how can I let you spend money?"
Boss Zhao smiled and said: "I will return the banknote to you, and I will give you what should be given to you."
Yue Rushuang smiled: "Do you guys want to start selling?"
Boss Zhao smiled and said: "Of course it's time to sell it. If we don't sell it, if foreign grain merchants come in, we will have to lower the price."
Yue Rushuang smiled and said, "I wonder what the price of this grain is?"
Boss Zhao smiled and said: "One tael of silver and three dou."
Yue Rushuang was shocked: "So expensive? Is the price too high?"
Boss Zhao smiled and said: "In previous years, when there were natural disasters, you would still have one tael of silver or two buckets of old rice mixed with sand. Now the rice we sell is all new and has not been mixed with sand. It is all good rice."
Yue Rushuang...
One tael of silver in Shangjing City is two dan, which is twenty dou. Outside Shangjing City, such as Linjing City, the price is one tael of silver and one stone and eight dou. For places that do not produce food, the price is one stone and five dou. The price of food is already high. .
"When there are no disasters, what are the food prices in Changqu and two states?"
Boss Zhao said: "One tael of silver is worth two stones and four dou. Changqu and two states are major grain producers, so the price of rice has always been low."
Yue Rushuang...
It’s hard to make a country rich.
Every time there is a natural or man-made disaster, there are always people who make a lot of money from it. Those who are affected by the disaster are already pitiful, and being exploited like this makes it even worse.
Yue Rushuang quickly thought about it in her mind.
How can we lower the price of food?
If the price of grain does not drop, the disaster relief money given by the court will go directly back to the grain merchants without having to go through many rounds of transfers. The grain merchants will then give their share of the money to the disaster relief officials.
So that's it.
Yue Rushuang suddenly figured out how corrupt officials embezzled disaster relief funds.
No wonder the prince said that every time there was a disaster relief, there were some people who honestly distributed money to the victims without breaking the bank. He also sent people to check that there was no evidence of corruption. The account books were so clear and clean that no one could catch them. A little handle.
The reason why there is no clue is because the disaster relief money was really distributed.
It just turned around in the hands of the victims and came back again.
Yue Rushuang...
If you want to line your own pockets, why should you care about others selling their sons and daughters?
Yue Rushuang gritted her teeth with hatred.
He even dares to be greedy for this kind of life-saving money.
Those officials in the court are really rotten.
Seeing Yue Rushuang's silence, the four bosses thought she was dissatisfied with the price.
Boss Zhao said: "Is it possible that the Crown Princess is dissatisfied with the price?"
"Or, sell it for a while for one tael of silver or two dou?"
Yue Rushuang...
"If you pay one tael of silver, two stones and four dou, can you make money?"
Boss Zhao...
Boss Zhao smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, yes."
"However, in the year of disaster, how can the price of food be so high? Even now, the price outside is one tael of silver and three dou, and the rice is not as good as ours."
Yue Rushuang frowned slightly.
At this moment, Xing'er was carrying half a pig and panting: "Girl, I saw the Bai Luo Cult on the road, and there are many ordinary people, densely packed. I hurried back to report the news."
Yue Rushuang looked at the half fan of pork.
"Did you buy half a fan of pork?"
Xing'er said: "The boss couldn't find the money, and the servant didn't have any copper coins with him. He was anxious to come back to report the news, so he ran back with it."
Yue Rushuang asked: "Does your uncle know?"
Xing'er nodded: "I understand."
"My uncle and the emperor...the emperor are both in front."
Yue Rushuang...
This is going to cause trouble.
Yue Rushuang said: "What you guys said is reasonable, but let me think about the price of food again. Don't worry about grain merchants from other places. If I don't let them in, they won't be able to come in either."
Several people felt relieved upon hearing this.
This is the Crown Princess.
"Sit down for a moment, I'll excuse you."
When Yue Rushuang went out, His Highness the Crown Prince stood up straight, his eyes indifferent and distant.
The emperor and Eunuch Pan were also standing at the door. There were more than a thousand people in front of the small courtyard, most of them were members of Bai Luo's religion, and some were ordinary people.
Leader Bai Luo sat on a wicker chair with a board between his legs.
Leader Bailuo didn't get off the wicker chair and just had others carry him.
"Bai Mengzhu, the leader of the Bailuo Sect, met with Your Majesty and knew that the Emperor was here, so he came to ask for orders for the people."
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.
The prince has not yet ascended the throne.
Where did the emperor come from?
"Nowadays, floods are rampant and the people are in dire straits. The people in our two states, Changqu, have no food to eat. I have brought a petition from all the people to submit to your majesty."
As soon as Bai Mengzhu stretched out his hand, a woman wearing purple flowers handed over a scroll.
Bai Mengzhu said: "Now the people in Changqu and Quzhou have no food to eat. We are willing to sit here for a long time and wait for the emperor's order to distribute disaster relief food."
The emperor said angrily: "You bastard!"
"Who is a white-haired pig? He dares to force me?"
Yue Rushuang wanted to laugh.
What white-haired pig?
The emperor must have learned this habit from Xing'er, naming people randomly.
Myolie jumped up with joy when she saw the leader.
"Leader, I will protect you."
Myolie rushed over like a gust of wind.
