Chapter 654： Grain distribution

The people who came here did not buy the cured pork and hydrochloric acid dishes that the emperor had eaten, but brought back a royal legend, so after the people deliberately spread it, the emperor's eating bran and pharynx for the people spread all over the south of the Yangtze River, and then to the north. , the central, western and southern spread past.

Qi Xiuyuan unknowingly gained the loyalty of a large number of subjects. It was only half a year after the founding of the country, and the people gradually felt a sense of belonging to Daqi. When the emperor knew about it, the news had already spread to southern Qian, and the people of southern Qian deliberately gathered far away. Baijingcheng, thank the emperor for his love for them.

Liu Qing deliberately reported the matter to the emperor, Qi Xiuyuan sighed slightly when he got the book, and a good year passed in a happy mood. Naturally, this will happen in January.

At this time, Zhu Liangzheng happily supervises the accountant to seal all the money he earned into the treasury, and then the big lock was dropped, and a servant came to announce him into the palace.

Zhu Liang did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly entered the palace.

Because Zhu Liang was a servant, Qi Xiuyuan met him directly in the harem and asked, "All the goods you brought are sold out?"

"Back to the emperor, yes, they are all sold out before noon today."

Qi Xiuyuan nodded slightly, "How much did you earn?"

Zhu Liang was busy sending the ledger that he had written down today, Qi Xiuyuan turned to the last page, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why so many?"

"The grace of the emperor is mighty, and all the blessings of the emperor..."

Qi Xiuyuan shook his head and smiled, and asked, "Do you want to buy food to go back immediately?"

"Yes, before coming here, the princess specially instructed to set off as soon as possible. It is best to return to Qiannan in the beginning of spring. The villagers are waiting."

Qi Xiuyuan nodded slightly, "Then go down and prepare. When you are about to leave, send someone into the palace to say, I have some things for you to bring to the prince and princess."

"Yes." Zhu Liang bowed and stepped back.

Because the grain was purchased directly from the headquarters of the Harvest Grain Shop, the action was very fast. If he counted the money here, he could immediately take out the grain and load it in the truck. In just two days, twenty-three trucks of grain were packed in bags.

Wang Quan said in distress: "I didn't expect that your truckloads of goods could be exchanged for so much money, and I almost emptied the grain in the grain depot."

Zhu Liang said with a smile: "There will be another batch of goods shipped from the North in a short time. Your grain store is still worried about the supply of goods? When the autumn harvest comes, there will be more income from the prince's fiefs, so you don't have to worry about it anymore."

Wang Quan also smiled when he thought of this.

Qi Xiuyuan asked Li Jinghua to prepare a lot of good things for him, all of which were for food, and he had to pack five cars before giving up. Two of the cars were for Fan Zijin. The officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs saw that Qi Xiuyuan had moved the filial piety that had been presented from various places this year. Nearly half of them, although they felt that he favored Duke Anguo of Rongjun too much, they didn't dare to say it.

Zhu Liang had only been in Beijing for six days before he set off for the south again. It was the twenty-eighth day of the Chinese New Year and he could only spend the New Year on the road.

Because a lot of food was transported, the journey on the road was much slower. It took 21 days to reach Juzhou, and the carriage entered the city, and was surrounded by the people, and there was a loud noise.

Zhu Liang was taken aback, thinking that it was the refugees who were robbing food, and he was busy calling someone to protect the convoy, but when he saw the people kneeling in groups, the small pavilion came quickly and said: "General Manager Zhu, the people are grateful for the emperor's kindness, the princess. Let you transport the food directly to the government office and hand it over to Liu Zhifu to take care of it in person."

Liu Qingqing had prepared two grain depots and brought Xu Zhizhou together to inspect the grains and put them into the warehouses.

After the handover, Zhu Liang went back to see Mu Yangling with the ledger, Mu Yangling looked it over, and said to Xiaoting: "Quickly go to Miao Village, and inform Chief Ji'an to come and get food tomorrow, and give it to the elders and the county who took the lead before. Yadu sent a letter and asked them to come over, so that the servants who had been trained before were ready, and when they came tomorrow, they would start to settle the bill."

Chief Ji'an came very quickly. It was not long before the city gate opened, and people arrived outside the mansion. Mu Yangling understood his mood and got up to do things.

Not long after dawn, the well-respected leaders who were in charge of the acquisition came one after another. In addition to those near Juzhou City, there were also people from two nearby state capitals. Their homes were far away from Juzhou, and some had to leave for three or four days. effort.

Because Zhuliang would write letters every three days to report on his journey, Mu Yangling asked people to invite everyone five days ago. They were already living in the post station, but they didn't expect to live in the city. They came later than Chief Ji'an, and everyone was a little embarrassed.

Chief Ji'an had a smile on his face. He had already inquired about the situation with the maids in the palace just now. All of their goods were sold, and there were twenty carts of food brought back, so he couldn't help but be unhappy.

Mu Yangling came out of the back hall and said straight to the point: "Please come this time, the food has been shipped back. Since we promised the villagers, it must be realized. Today, I called everyone to share the food."

Mu Yangling turned his head to look at Lichun, who went out and led three teams of servants over, and stood in the yard, and the people in the room whispered to each other.

Mu Yangling looked at them and said, "These are the servants who will settle accounts in our palace. Because the matter of paying the food is very important, it's not that I can't trust you, but it involves matters of people's livelihood. Each team is composed of the palace, the yamen, and the sages, and the sages are the main ones, and the food is returned to the villagers who have the tidbits."

Mu Yangling stood up and saluted the virtuous sages in the hall, saying: "You are all people who are admired by the villagers. They are selected by them. This matter has worked for everyone, and the palace will be grateful after the incident."

Everyone got up and returned the salute, "Princess, this is what we should do. It should be us thanking the emperor for his kindness, and thanking the prince and concubine for the kindness."

"Yes, yes, I didn't expect the emperor to sit in the hall, but he still remembers me and other villagers."

Mu Yangling said with a smile: "There are kings and ministers all over the world, no matter how remote and barren, they are still the emperor's people. How could the emperor not care about you?"

After Mu Yangling finished speaking, he asked people to take the account book and lead everyone to the grain depot to get the corresponding grains. At that time, the yamen of the county government will be responsible for escorting them.

After    and others left, Mu Yangling was free to entertain Chief Ji'an. Because Miao Village could get the most food, he didn't have to queue with everyone, but directly divided it from Mu Yangling.

All the Miao people took the notes in exchange for grain, and no one took the money, so the grain involved was the most. After some calculations, eleven carts of grain were taken away.

Chief Ji'an inspected it and saw that the quality of the coarse grains on the car passed the test. He laughed so hard that he could not see his eyes. Chen Jiacai didn't expect it to go so smoothly. Those household items that were found in Miao villages could really be exchanged for so many. food.

Chief Ji'an asked his son-in-law to **** the food back first and send it to the Miao people, but he stayed. He smiled and looked at the convoy of the Han people and found that they didn't take much. When he got out of the car, he pondered and turned to look for Mu Yangling, "Wangfei Niangniang, why are you Han people taking so little?"

Mu Yangling said with a smile: "When receiving the goods, many people chose to ask for copper plates, and not many people exchanged notes."

Chief Ji'an's eyes lit up, "The rest of the food..."
