(Go to the net.)

The next day, Qian Ji's grain store suddenly put away the sign of "no grain today" in front of the door, and the people of the capital who had been frightened for so long for the problem of eating hurriedly ran to tell each other, and there was a long queue in front of the grain store, and the people were all happy to see bags of grain piled up in front of them. Go and see the net.

However, what is somewhat surprising is that the price of grain in Qian Ji is only the same as last year when the price of grain remains high. Later, a news spread in the capital, in order to help the victims, the imperial court purchased a batch of grain from Qian Ji at a high price, which could not only meet the daily needs of the Beijing division, but also enough to allocate disaster relief from other places. At first, the people were still skeptical and were still busy buying and hoarding rations, but when the relief grain truck from Beijing set off, all doubts were dissipated.

After three days of intense preparations, the relief grain trucks were finally about to set off, and under the strict escort of the accompanying army, the grain trucks loaded with land set out of the city. On both sides of the street, crowds of people watched the excitement, and people rushed to tiptoe to look at the seemingly endless grain transportation procession.

I only heard an onlooker point to the deep rut marks on the ground and said: "Tut, you see, this car must have hundreds of catties of grain, so many cars, how much grain must be there!"

A person next to him echoed: "That's it, it seems that the food in the capital is now sufficient, and there is no need to be afraid of not being able to buy grain." ”

Immediately, a well-informed person took over the conversation: "I just heard that several big grain stores in the capital, that is, the ones that have been saying that they have no grain a few days ago, have regretted it so much, I heard that they are going to open warehouses to release grain, in my opinion, the price of this grain will have to fall in two days." ”

"Hey, you say, did Qian Ji really save so much food?"

A farmer glanced at the man who said this disdainfully and said: "That's natural, Qian Ji, the No. 1 money village in the world, that Qian Gongzi is really a kind person, he took out so much grain at once, he is our great benefactor." ”

The farmer's words resonated with everyone next to him, and everyone praised Qian Cong for being kind and charitable, and also praised Zhize by the way.

Qian Cong and I hid in the crowd, listening to the praise of the people around us, although they didn't know what role I played in it, but their hearts were still as sweet as honey, and their pride was spontaneous. East!Fang!Net

Qian Cong stood quietly beside me, he rarely maintained a reserved attitude, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Let's go. Seeing that the plan was successful and there was no need for us to stay, Qian Chong reminded me, and then squeezed out a way for me in the crowd.

"Boss Qian, you are really good," as soon as I arrived in the sparsely populated alley, I couldn't help but praise Qian Cong's cleverness: "It's really admirable to come up with such a good solution." ”

Qian Cong smiled slightly, and said as he walked: "This is also an unintentional whim, in fact, today's result is mainly due to our Qian Ji's good confidentiality of business information, and others don't know how much food we have on hand." ”

And Qian Cong took advantage of this to make a sufficient fuss, and used all the grain accumulated on hand to fill the demand in the area of Beijing, creating the illusion that food was in short supply, so as to stabilize the people's hearts. The grain trucks were used by Qian Cong and me, and the trucks were loaded with only a small amount of grain, and the rest were heavy sand and gravel. Although there are still imperfections in the whole operation, from the final effect, the basic purpose has been achieved, that is, to calm people's hearts and minds at the same time, and force the gentry in the capital to open warehouses and release grain.

"In a few days, the price of grain in the capital should continue to fluctuate downward, and then the imperial court should buy grain again, which should be the best time. When you go back, you must tell the emperor, don't miss the opportunity. For the future prospects, Qian Chong is also full of confidence.

"Mr. Qian, I really have to thank you for this time. "In the past, I only heard that Qian Ji's young shopkeeper has a way of running a business, and I really realized this through this incident. You must know that in these years of rampant famine, those who can find ways to make food prices fall instead of rising are definitely business wizards.

"Oh, by the way, the emperor said that when the matter is completed, he will summon you to the palace for an interview, and reward you heavily in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Regarding Qian Cong, Zhize was a little hesitant at first, because he also knew that the relationship between Qian Cong and Yuan Zhixun was extraordinary, and he had always been skeptical about whether he could help. This time, Qian Cheng set aside a thousand catties in four or two, and used a trick to hide from the world, which really made Zhize look at him differently.

"Xiaoxiao, please go back and tell the emperor that he has received his kindness, but I really don't dare to accept the reward, I just did my part. Qian Cheng politely rejected me, and his fair face was still unfazed.

"But..."I really didn't expect him to refuse, this is really too puzzling: "Why are you here, the court buys your grain, and you refuse to pay a high price, even if you don't want it, now that it's done, you don't even want a reward, so what do you want?"

Qian Cheng looked at me, didn't speak, walked forward lightly, and kept asking questions behind me. "Qian Cong, you stop for me! I must make my words clear today..."

"Do you really want to know?" Probably annoyed by my entanglement, Qian Cong stopped and looked back at me, his eyes seemed to be confused.

I nodded heavily.

Qian Cong took a deep breath, looked at me intently, and then said slowly, "Because... I like you!"

I can't remember how I said goodbye to Qian Cong after that, but as soon as he said this, my head banged, and then my brain went blank. Qian Cong seemed to have said some things later, but I didn't listen to a word, and there was only one question in my heart, how could I, Feng Xiaoxiao, be able to attract the attention of so many handsome men and guys, I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

"Niangniang, you come back—hey, Niangniang, what's wrong with you?" Outside the imperial city, Ruyan was already waiting there, and hurriedly greeted me when she saw me, but she stared at me as if she had discovered something.

Coming to my senses, I subconsciously looked at myself, as if there was nothing abnormal: "What's wrong, what do I feel wrong?"

"No, nothing. Ruyan replied hurriedly: "It's just that Niangniang's face doesn't seem to be good just now, and the slave maid thinks Niangniang is uncomfortable." ”

"It's nothing, let's go, let's go back. I smiled at her and walked towards the palace gate.

Ruyan also regained her playful demeanor, followed behind me, and pretended to say mysteriously: "Niangniang, the slave maid heard a good news just now, do you want to hear it?"

"Good news?" I couldn't help but stop.

"Yes, yes, just now I heard a few fathers-in-law in the palace say that just now several dignitaries and nobles in the capital entered the palace to face the saint, it is said that it is a matter of grain, in the past, these people refused to sell grain, but now their attitude has changed fast enough, not only agreed to sell, but also the price is a lot lower... Hey, mother, where are you going?"

When I realized that everything I had done had finally returned to that desired result, I immediately wanted to meet Zhize and share the joy in my heart with him.

"Zhizawa... Belch... I've seen Lord Szeto. "I rushed into the palace of diligence in a hurry, because I was so excited, I didn't notice the tension that permeated the hall. When Lord Situ's piercing gaze came at me, I immediately realized that I had been in trouble again.

"Is there something the queen is looking for me to do here?" Zhi Ze looked at me with a grim face, and his words seemed to contain a chilling power.

"It's okay, it's okay, the concubine is rude, and it's disturbing the emperor's handling of state affairs..."In front of Lord Situ, I didn't dare to make a mistake at all, and hurriedly apologized for my rudeness. But I couldn't help but feel a little strange about the strange atmosphere of the scene: usually when Zhize made an appointment to meet Lord Situ, the two of them discussed things calmly, but looking at the faces of both of them at the scene, it is not difficult to imagine that there was a fierce quarrel just now.

"Since it's okay, then ask the queen to step back first. I was muttering in my heart, Zhi Ze slowly opened his mouth and gave the order to evict the guest, I bowed suspiciously and slowly retreated, just as I stepped out of the temple door, Zhi Ze's voice faintly came from inside: "... I've already said it, and I won't say yes!"

What is it, Zhi Ze will never agree? I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and the mystery that permeated my heart became thicker and thicker.

"Mother, the bathing water has been boiled. As soon as I returned to my bedroom, Ruyan greeted me with a smile, the little girl thought very thoughtfully, but I was depressed that I couldn't share the joy of success with Zhize, so my face looked a little bad, and Ruyan didn't talk much.

After changing his clothes, he weakly threw the whole person into the bath, and masochistically stuck his head deep in the warm water, until he was suffocated and dizzy, and then broke free from the water.

I took a heavy breath and felt like my mood was getting better. In fact, the reason for the bad mood is very simple, that is, because I want to share my joy after success with Zhize for the first time, but the existence of Lord Situ obviously disturbs my good things.

"Alas, Feng Xiaoxiao, Feng Xiaoxiao, when did you become so small-bellied?" I thought about it and felt that this temper tantrum didn't seem to make any sense, what's wrong with me? Is it because Chunyu's performance is too outstanding, so I value the opportunity to show my talent in front of Zhize so much?

The hot water was added over and over again, and it was only when my skin was pale from the long soaking that I slowly came out of the bath. As soon as I changed my clothes and came out, I saw Ruyan standing at the table, staring motionlessly at the set of clothes I wore when I left the palace on the table, and there seemed to be envy in her eyes.

"Ruyan, Ruyan..." I called a few times, and Ruyan came back to her senses and apologized to me in fear. I don't mind, I'm in a better mood now, I'm not as depressed as I was just now, and seeing her look just now, most of them liked the dress.

"Originally, this dress was specially prepared by me in order to leave the palace. "I walked over and touched the colorful fabric, and it was absolutely top-notch. "But in the palace, wearing this kind of clothes doesn't look very solemn, or I'll give it to you, anyway, the two of us are about the same size. ”

"Thank you, but the slave doesn't like the girl's dress, the slave just thought... When can the slave and maid go out of the palace with Niangniang again..."Ruyan replied in a low voice.

I see, I suddenly realized that this girl wanted to go out again. But it's also said that living in the deep palace all day long is really not as attractive as the flower world outside.

"You behave well, and when I have a chance in the future, I will definitely take you out again. I smiled slightly and promised her, which naturally attracted a burst of exaggerated gratitude from Ruyan.

"Qi Yu Niangniang, Lord Situ asks to see you!" the voice of the little eunuch came from outside the bathroom door. Lord Situ is visiting? He hasn't liked me very much, and besides, he just ran into me in the Qinzheng Palace, and now he is coming to the door in person, what can he do?

"Hurry up, please. I pretended to be calm and commanded, but I secretly complained in my heart, in my impression, Lord Situ would probably not be a good thing to see me.
