Chapter 996 I beg us
While the court was still arguing about what to prepare, the Empress and Concubine Ning had already prepared the things to be transported to Yunbei City.
I don't know how the news was leaked. The ladies and young ladies in the back house all offered to express themselves.
In contrast, those court ministers seemed very inept, and were slapped in the face by a group of women.
Such an inexplicable contrast actually made the court's decision much faster.
No one wants to go home and be slapped in the face by a woman at home.
The capital is unprecedented, no one finds fault, but that's it, the action is not as fast as that of Princess Ning...
The battle in Yunbei City continued, Jiang Muyuan and the others gritted their teeth and insisted.
You can persevere in battles on the battlefield, but you can't use food.
The longer the , the worse it is for them.
Xi Yao saw Zhou Rong again, but because he was short of food, he had to discuss with the grain merchants in the city and bring the grain back from the outside...
"It's also that far water can't save near fire!" Xi Yao said.
"But there is no other way, I can only boil it first!"
After leaving the General's Mansion, Zhou Rong has been living in the barracks. He was very busy, and he didn't take care of it. He was haggard, and his body was still full of dirt, looking very infiltrating.
Xi Yao didn't let him clean up, knowing that he was against the clock now.
"It's not that I didn't eat it!" Xi Yao thought for a while and said, "Go ahead and do your own thing, I'll discuss with the Yun family and buy the livestock that I used to exchange for salt, at least to give the soldiers some meat! "
At this time, meat is also very important.
"Okay, if there is news, let me know!"
Xi Yao nodded, then watched him leave.
Although I feel bad for Zhou Rong's poor food and sleep, Xi Yao didn't say anything to let him stay...
Can't stay!
She was not pretentious, but immediately asked someone to invite Yun Rong.
Yun Yizhou is not here, so I can only talk to Yun Rong directly.
Xi Yao invited people as Ning'an County Lord.
Yun Rong came quickly and brought Yun Xi with him.
"I have seen Ning'an County Master!" The father and daughter saluted Xi Yao.
"Master Yun, you're welcome, please take a seat!"
After they sat down, Xi Gao didn't make any roundabout clichés, but said directly: "Master Yun should be very clear about the situation of Yunbei City!"
Yun Rong was at a loss, but nodded slowly.
"Dagan suffers because he didn't prepare early, he lacks everything, so the food is the most important thing. Although the general has already sent someone to raise food, it will take some time. The meaning of this county master is that...the Yun family can follow the market price. Take out the livestock that were previously exchanged for salt, keep only the one that produces offspring and milk, and one that is bred for breeding, and sell the rest to the military camp, and the Yun family will definitely not suffer!"
After she finished speaking in a rush, Yun Rong was a little undecided.
"Isn't it enough to leave one end for breeding?" He asked a little tangled.
Xi Yao said with a smile: "For now, it's enough, not to mention, this war will end. After the end, it's natural to have as many as you want... Maybe at that time, people will beg us and give us more!"
"Begging us?" Yun Xi couldn't help but exclaimed. Seeing Xi Yao looking at her, she couldn't help but curiously said: "It's impossible, people have always raised prices arbitrarily because of the abundance of cattle, sheep and horses!"
The Yun family was able to exchange so many cattle, sheep and horses this time, mainly because they were given such a chance because they lacked salt.
Normally, even silver wouldn’t make them nod.
