Chapter 293

After hearing this, the guard was dubious, but looked at the uncomfortable appearance but not pretended to be. He looked at it carefully, and then said, "go in."

Then Fengxian went in, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and strode to the inside.

It was time for dinner in the barracks.

At this time, Fengxian also mixed into it and went to serve porridge with a bowl.

Then I sat down with you and ate.

Then Fengxian said to the people beside him, "have you found that the porridge is thinner now than before?"

"It's possible that the cook may have put less rice this time." The man sitting beside Fengxian said at this time and took another sip of porridge.

Then Fengxian said, "I went to urinate and heard the cook say that the Army food is almost gone."

"It's impossible. I haven't heard of it." At this time, the man sitting beside Fengxian frowned slightly and then said.

Then Fengxian said, "do you think the food has changed in these days?"

At this time, everyone gathered around Fengxian and said, "listen to you, the food for these two days is a little different from that before."

"Is the news you heard accurate? If so, what shall we do? " Then someone whispered.

After listening to him, Feng said, "it should not be bad. When I passed the door, I saw that the cook was going to the rice bowl to scoop rice. I saw that there was not much left in it. I still said that we soldiers could not know. Then I said that I didn't know if the general had any idea."

"It's true and false. If there is no food and grass, how can we compete with the Xiling army? The strange people who appeared in Xiling before have not been solved. When will the next time the Xiling army invades? What should we do then?" At this time, someone said in a panic.

I only heard that someone was meditating for a while, and then said, "don't panic, everyone. It's just that I heard about it, but it hasn't been implemented yet. Don't mess with yourself."

"Well, that's right. Let's not speculate here. It's possible that I didn't really hear it. I'll know when I eat tomorrow." Fengxian said at this time.

Then they nodded their heads and said, "that's right. Let's stop talking about it and have a meal."

As they spoke, everyone dispersed and went on to eat.

At this time, after a little talk, it seems that things are done.

Then Fengxian mounted his horse and ran to Xiling.

At this time, Zheng Qiu and others, no goods on the carriage, the journey will also speed up some, have also arrived at the capital.

Yamen.

Zheng Qiu and others got off the carriage and went to the mansion.

And Xu Qing is now in the study to check the previous brochure about capital construction.

Only see Zheng Qiu a few people stride in from outside, one face is happy to cry, "adult."

"You're back? So fast? " Xu Qing then put down the pamphlet in his hand, then stood up and walked down to ask.

At this time, Zheng Qiu started to say, "adults don't know. Once our potatoes arrived in Suizhou, they were robbed. Within half a day, they were sold out."

"Seriously, this potato is so good to sell?" After hearing this, Xu Qing asked in surprise. Unexpectedly, the potato was so popular. Previously, he was worried about whether the potato would pile up. It seems that he didn't have to worry at all.

Zheng Qiu smiles and nods to Xu Qing.

Seeing that Xu Qing was still surprised, Su Tong went to the front arch and started to say, "I don't know about it. In order to make potatoes sell faster, brother Zheng came up with a sales method, which is to sell potatoes at ten Jin and ten jin. Those common people thought it was worthwhile, so they all came to buy them."

"What's the price of potatoes?" Then Xu Qing asked again.

Then, Zhao Po, who collected the money, went forward. "My Lord, ten jin of potatoes cost thirteen Wen, and a total of eighteen twenty-four Wen was sold. Except for the food and drink on the road, this is the rest of the money."

Said, Zhao Po handed the silver to Xu Qing from his body. Xu Qing saw it and frowned slightly. He took the silver and then asked, "how can I sell so much?"

"My Lord, brother Zheng met an acquaintance and made a big deal. The man was very generous. He left a few cars of potatoes, which he didn't even weigh, and then he paid twelve Liang for the rest Zhao Po has not yet opened his mouth, and Su Tong on one side of the conversation.

Xu Qing's brow was not wrinkled at this time. He knew the acquaintances, and he was so generous. As far as he knew, Zheng Qiu moved from Suizhou to Jiandu from urination. His friends all knew when to come out with a generous friend. How could he never hear of it.

Thinking of this, Xu Qing turned his eyes to Zheng Qiu and asked, "what's the matter?"

"It's a long story, my Lord." With that, Zheng Qiu looks at Su Tong and Zhao Po.

After Zhao Po saw it, he knew what it meant, so he started to say to Xu Qing, "my Lord, I just remembered that there are still some things I need to deal with with with with Su, so I went out first."

"Well." Xu Qing nodded in response.

Before Su Tong understood what was going on, he was led out by Zhao Po.

Out of the study, Su looked at Zhao Po with a puzzled face and asked, "well, why did it suddenly come out? We just came back here. What can we do?"

"Brother Zheng doesn't know that person easily. He doesn't talk in front of outsiders." Zhao Po then said to Su Tong.

Then Zhao Po sighed a little. His brother is good at everything, but he is too straight and doesn't know what to say. I'm not sure what kind of trouble will happen if he doesn't follow him.

After Su Tong and Zhao Po went out, Zheng Qiu quickly shut up the study, and then went to Xu Qing and said, "my Lord, I know the acquaintance in Su Tong's mouth."

"I know you, too? Who is it? " Xu Qing was surprised and asked.

Zheng Qiu just said, "it's shuohou's subordinate, Xiao muxiaogongzi."

"Xiaomu? He didn't go to the frontier. Why did he appear in Suizhou? " Xu Qing is now full of questions.

Zheng Qiu tells Xu Qing about Xiao Mu's going to Suizhou.

After hearing this, Xu Qing nodded his head. "So it is. He is looking for food for the soldiers."

"Yes, my Lord." Zheng Qiu should be at this time.

Then Xu Qing asked Zheng Qiu, "why did you go to Suizhou to find food?"

"My subordinates asked that the frontier fortress was in short supply of food and grass. They heard that they had not been able to hold on for several days. As soon as they got to the frontier fortress, they began to look for food everywhere. But now the price of rice in the grain shop is too high to say. Even if they are willing to pay, they can't buy much. Later, they met us and sold potatoes in Suizhou vegetable market." Zheng Qiu then said to Xu Qing.

When Xu Qing heard this, he was angry, and then his voice increased a little. "Now that Xiling invades the army, the soldiers and soldiers are even having problems with food and clothing. Doesn't the emperor care?"

Xu Qing can't help gasping.

"Listen to childe Xiao. The emperor sent a hundred and ten stone grains and grass." Zheng Qiu said to Xu Qing at this time.

After listening to Zheng Qiu's words, Xu Qing's anger was even stronger at this time. "A hundred stone, this is our emperor. The capital was flooded with water, and there were countless deaths and injuries. The corrupt official, the prime minister LAN, just went to his post and built the dam. He didn't even ask. Now Xiling has invaded the army, and our emperor is so. Isn't he afraid of the cold in the heart of the frontier fortress soldiers? If it's the frontier fortress When the fortress is lost and the Xiling army goes all the way to the East, it is our people who suffer. "

"My Lord, things are not so bad now. Listen to childe Xiao, Lord Shuo should be near the frontier fortress. If there is Lord Shuo, the frontier fortress will be OK." Zheng Qiu saw this and had to say so.

He knew that these words of adults were right, but the Emperor didn't do anything, and what abilities could they common people have.

Nowadays, it's hard for the people to wrap up their stomachs because of the heavy fees. If the frontier fortress is lost, it's the people who suffer.

Then Xu Qingping regained his mood, then lowered his eyebrows and thought. He knew this now, so he couldn't sit by and watch. But now, what can he do to help the frontier fortress.

Thinking of this, Xu qinglingguang blinks. He can't help others. The frontier fortress is in short supply of military food. Then he will send military food to the frontier fortress soldiers.

Then Xu Qing said to Zheng Qiu, "go, let's load the potatoes dug by the villagers these days into the carriage and send them to the frontier fortress. Now that I know this, I can't stand by, even if it's just our meager efforts."

"That adult, villagers here..." Zheng Qiu nodded after listening, then said and looked to Xu Qing.

Xu sighed, "let me tell you, gather the villagers to the gate of Yamen."

He believed that when the villagers knew about the frontier fortress, they would agree. After all, it is not easy for them who have experienced life and death to live now.

"Yes, my Lord." After hearing this, Zheng Qiu turned around and walked to the door, opened the study and went out.

At this time, Su Tong and Zhao Po are outside the study. They look at the study with frowns.

Just now, they were OK. How come they just came out, they heard the angry voice of Xu adult.

See Zheng Qiu come out, two people walk forward.

Zhao Po looked at the study at this time, and then asked softly, "brother Zheng, what's the matter? I just heard the voice of adults is not very kind?"

"It's no big deal, brother Zhao and brother su. Go find someone to gather the potatoes dug by the villagers these two days." Zheng Qiu's mouth was slightly crooked at this time, then he said, and then ordered Zhao Po and Su Tong.

Su Tong's eyebrows were wrinkled after listening. "Brother Zheng, I heard you right. We just came back. Why do we rush? Let's have a rest, anyway."

"It's the adult's order. I have something else to do. Let's go first, and you can do it as soon as possible!" With that, Zheng Qiu turned and walked out.

Su Tong looked at Zhao Po with a puzzled face at this time What's the matter? Just now, the adult was very happy. What happened in the study? "

"I don't know." Zhao Po then looked at Su Tong, shrugged his shoulders and walked aside.

Just walked out a few steps, saw that Su Tong didn't keep up, then stopped and turned to Su Tong and said, "what's the stupor? Don't finish what the adults told you!"
