Liaoxi County
The governor's office and the county governor's office are about to hold a happy event. The second young lady of the Shi family is getting married to the eldest son of the Lu family.
Previously, the Shi family and the Lu family were now plagued by rumors.
Shi Xue, the second young lady of the Shi family, suffered a damaged reputation because she was at the center of rumors. Even if the Shi family asked a well-known Wen Po from Liaoxi County to verify Shi Xue's identity and prove that she was still a yellow-flowered girl, no one would believe her.
Everyone just thought that either Po Wen had received the money, or Po Wen did not dare to tell the truth due to the prestige of the governor's office.
Making Huang Yao is like this, it is equivalent to yellow mud falling into the crotch. No matter how you explain it, it is difficult to win people's trust.
Furthermore, it was a fact that she was kidnapped by bandits, and this rumor was spread with a mixture of truth and falsehood, and Shi Xue couldn't argue with it.
Lu Yiliang also had a hard time. He was also slandered by rumors. I don't know which evil person came up with this idea, but directly connected his embarrassment to Lu Desheng with his collusion with the copycat.
He made things difficult for Lu Desheng because he was standing up for the destroyed Liufu Village.
In short, Lu Yiliang can no longer go against Lu Desheng.
He felt aggrieved, but had to stop.
In order to get rid of the rumors surrounding Shi Xue, Shi Tao decided to marry her to Lu Yiliang's eldest son. There is no way, the reputation of the second daughter is ruined, and it is impossible to marry high.
He wanted to marry his second daughter to Qin Sheng, but neither Qin nor Lu cooperated. If it is delayed any longer, it will be detrimental to the reputation of the governor's office.
As long as Shi Xue's matter is not resolved, the Shi family will continue to be a topic of conversation among the common people. There are other unmarried girls in the Shi family, and their reputation will be tarnished.
Lu Yiliang originally wanted to marry Shi Xue on behalf of his eldest son, but now, he felt as if he had been hit by a pie falling from the sky.
The two parties hit it off immediately and decided to become in-laws.
Faced with such a result, Shi Xue cried uncontrollably, "Dad, these waves of rumors must be caused by the Lu family. You must make the decision for your daughter!"
"Don't worry, dad won't let you suffer this grievance in vain."
If Lu Desheng heard this, he would definitely roll his eyes and despise the Shi family and his daughter. Even if the Shi family guessed it was them, so what. Originally, she, Shi Xue, was a girl who was in jail and was lucky to be rescued. He was escorted home quietly, and no one made any announcement about it. From now on, she just needs to live her own life.
Everyone quietly covered up this matter for you. If you have to retaliate with kindness, then don't blame others for lifting your fig leaf.
Luoyang
Liu Xiaohuai came back from outside with a face full of joy, "Master, the food from Changpingcang has arrived."
Previously, Zhang Xian used a secret discount to take out one million taels of silver as collateral, and issued a military order to borrow one million shi of grain from Changping Granary in Dali.
The reason why Song Mo agreed was that even if Zhang Xian's plan failed, he would not lose.
Don't look at it. A dou of grain in Nanyang now costs 280 taels, ten thousand shi is about 28,000 taels, and one million shi is 2.8 million taels.
But the one million shi of grain placed in Changpingcang was usually collected at a low price, and could not even be used for one million taels.
In addition, the disaster in Nanyang was like an earth dragon turning over, and Song Mo really wanted to solve it.
Now, the food is in place.
Ji Wuyin asked Liu Xiaohuai, "Where are the grain merchants from all over the country?"
The news that had been sent back through Ji's branch offices in various places spread all over the country because the news that grain prices in Nanyang were the highest in the country spread all over the country. Grain merchants set out one after another to transport grain to Nanyang to sell.
"The grain merchants who are moving the fastest are about to dock the grain ship."
"Okay! Now it's time to see how we perform! The time has come when food prices are as low as onions!"
Nanyang
The subordinate asked, "Sir, are the food for disaster relief running out?"
Zhang Xian: "Well, this batch of disaster relief food is indeed running out."
Zuo Anmin frowned. In fact, in order to extend the disaster relief time and allow more victims to rebuild their homes during this period, they had already saved a lot. But no matter how much we save, there is only so much relief food provided by the emperor, and it will eventually run out.
He looked at Zhang Xian. The head of the family said that Zhang Xian would find a way to overcome this difficulty. What would he do?
Zhang Xian thought to himself, the game has been laid out, and now comes the harvest period.
After the news that the disaster relief food was about to run out, the people of Nanyang wailed.
Grain merchants from all over the country were paying close attention to Nanyang. After receiving the news, they urged the grain transport ships to move forward quickly.
On this day, several ports and docks in Yuzhou were filled with grain transport ships of all sizes from all over the country, especially Luoyang, which was the busiest.
The acquaintances of the grain merchants greeted each other, and those who wanted to know the news went to inquire about the news, those who rented warehouses rented warehouses, those who unloaded grains, and those who were looking for sellers looked for sellers. Everyone wanted to take the opportunity to make a lot of money and eat a big meal. .
At this moment, the Ji branch of Nanyang officially announced that there was a large amount of cheap grain for sale!
People in Nanyang buy on a per capita basis, and after registering, they will be eligible to buy affordable grain.
As soon as the news came out, countless people swarmed in and told each other. Soon, there was a long queue at the Ji's branch in Nanyang.
In a grain store owned by the Yuzhou Grain Merchants Chamber of Commerce, a sister-in-law was choosing grain with a frown on her face.
At this time, her husband rushed in, pulled her away, and said, "Let's go quickly."
"Hey, I haven't bought any food yet."
"What should I buy? I won't buy it. Who wants to buy this black-hearted and high-priced grain?"
"But there is no food at home."
"Let's go to Beicheng to buy cheap food!"
"Fair-price grain? How much does it cost per dou?" No matter how cheap the food is now, it's probably only 200 dou per dou, right? But even if it's two hundred a dou, it's still cheaper than the grain from the Grain Merchants Chamber of Commerce.
"One hundred and twenty coins per dou!"
"What? Did I hear it correctly? Is it really one hundred and twenty coins per dou?"
"Really! You heard that right."
"It's so cheap, can the food be eaten?"
"Don't worry, I've seen the food, it's fine!"
"Then let's go quickly!" What if we're late?
One hundred and twenty cents per dou, this is really the most affordable food. Even in a good harvest year, it is only at this price, right? Is the Ji Chamber of Commerce the Guanyin Bodhisattva who saves people in need?
