Shumin hurried into the city when he got out of Lizheng's house, and when he arrived at the Zuifeng Building, it was just the time to finish eating, and the business of the Zuifeng Building was very good, which can be seen from the full seats in the lobby. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Madame Qin. Shopkeeper Zhang saw her at a glance and immediately greeted her, and his attitude towards her was no longer as good as before.

"Shopkeeper Zhang, is Master Yao here?" Shu Min was not polite to him, she was now anxious to see Yao Su, so that she could inquire with him about the affairs of the imperial court.

"Yes, but he's eating in his room at the moment. The shopkeeper replied, "I'll go and report to him now." ”

"It's me who is abrupt, let's wait for Master Yao to finish eating. Shumin blushed, it felt a bit like he had come to eat.

"Is Mrs. Qin here? Before Shumin's words were finished, a servant dressed as a man walked out and invited Shumin in directly.

Shu Min smiled at the shopkeeper with a red face, and followed the servant into the backyard of the Drunken Wind Building.

There is a beautiful patio in the backyard and a two-storey attic built around the patio, both inns. Across this row of houses, there are several small patios, each of which is a separate courtyard. Yao Su's room was in one of these small courtyards.

"This is an inn for your guests?" Looking at the corridor, the garden, and the intricately designed courtyard of the house, Shumin was amazed.

Mo Yo walked for four or five minutes, and finally arrived in front of Yao Su's room, which was obviously a living room, and the furnishings in it were no different from ordinary halls, but it was much more luxurious.

"Madame Qin. Yao Su saw Shumin, got up and bowed his hand to her.

"I'm sorry, Boss Yao, I'm disturbing your meal. Shumin also returned a salute and said.

"It's okay, I said, you can come to me at any time. Yao Su showed a consistent smile on his face and said, "Mrs. Qin hasn't eaten yet, let's go together." ”

Shumin nodded, and didn't be polite to him, she made it at the table, and someone immediately brought her dishes and chopsticks.

"Mrs. Qin is in a hurry to find Yao, I don't know what's going on?" asked Yao Su.

"I wonder if Master Yao has any news about military service and food in the imperial court? To tell you the truth, the whole village is very uneasy because of this matter now. Shumin frowned and asked, the people in the village were uneasy, and she was not at ease.

"The news of your village is really good. Yao Su smiled. "This matter has not yet been decided in the capital. However, the war was lost, military service and food were indispensable, but I don't know how much would be levied. ”

"Huh, is that true?" Shu Min got the exact news, and the little illusion in his heart was shattered.

"Madame, why should you be so depressed, with the situation in Baili Village, there shouldn't be a big problem in coping with this military service and food requisition, right?" Yao Su was puzzled, he had learned about Baili Village, even if there was no tofu workshop, it was a rare rich village in this area.

"You don't understand, now Baili Village and other eastern villages have signed an agreement with the west on mutual trade of grain and beans, and all the excess grain in the eastern region has been exchanged for beans with the west. Shumin replied sadly.

"Grain and bean trade agreement?" Yao Su asked curiously, "What does this mean?"

"The land in the western part of Linjiang County is barren and not suitable for growing grain, so it is very barren, since I went there last year to teach tofu, I found that although they can't heavy rice, they can grow beans, anyway, beans are not very demanding on the land, so under my facilitation, the east and west signed this grain and bean agreement. Shu Min said with a bitter face, if she hadn't tried her best to facilitate this agreement, maybe Baili Village wouldn't have to worry about the matter of requisitioning grain.

However, she does not regret promoting this matter, after all, this is related to the future development of the entire Linjiang County.

"Grain and bean trade agreement? This peasant woman still has this vision?" Although Shu Min's face was depressed at the moment, and when he talked about the grain and bean trade, he was also extremely straightforward, but Yao Su's heart was turbulent.

When he first saw her, he thought she was just an ordinary peasant woman, and even though he knew that she made tofu, he didn't take her to heart.

It was only when he learned that she could design machinery, especially highly lethal weapons, that he began to take her seriously, but at that time he still thought that there was someone behind her or an element of luck.

It wasn't until later that Chu Feng kept revealing to him that she was a talent, hoping that he could win over and use her, that he became a little more interested in her.

Although he didn't come to Baili Village for the Qin woman, in just a few days, he had a new understanding of her, felt that what Chu Feng said was true, and planned to cooperate with her for a long time for mutual benefit.

But after hearing about the origin of her grain and bean trade, he found that his opinion of her was still too low.

Maybe she didn't realize it herself, thinking that she had just done something good for everyone, but the strategic vision contained in it had to make him look at her differently.

"Hehe, Zhao Wenjie, Zhao Wenjie, your eyes are indeed vicious, I am really inferior to you in this regard!" Yao Su smiled bitterly in his heart.

This Qin woman is indeed worth investing in, and he began to understand why Zhao Wenjie forcibly kidnapped her in the first place.

"Master Yao, what are you thinking?" Seeing that he didn't make a sound and bleated to eat and pick up vegetables, Shumin asked curiously.

"Oh, it will take some time for the imperial court's general text to arrive, and now that our country is rich and strong, there has been no large-scale war for several years, and the imperial court also has some reserves. However, this levy is usually in the autumn, and if it is in the spring, the levy will not be too much, so you don't have to be nervous. Yao Su had just lost his senses, and came back to his senses to comfort Shu Mindao.

"I hope so. Shu Min listened to his analysis and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I heard that Lihe took our four cities at once this time, is this true?" Solving the worries in his heart, Shumin became gossipy.

"Hmm," Yao Su said in affirmation.

"Lihe in the west is just a small tribe, how can they have this ability!" Shu Min blocked some books about the territory of the Apocalypse Country during this time, and he also had a little understanding of the national situation.

"I don't think it's a bad thing. Yao Su said, "The Apocalypse Kingdom has been stable for too long. ”

It has been stable for too long, so the imperial court began to attack the once loyal guards, and this sudden attack on Lihe can be regarded as a warning to his uncle, that is, the current emperor: This frontier is not something that anyone can defend, if it were not for his random suspicion, how could General Huang be charged with treason for no reason? If the frontier is guarded by General Huang, the small tribe of Lihe can invade? !

Moreover, this Lihe disaster can also become an opportunity for the rise of his prince's mansion.

"Shhhhhh ”

"Haha......." Yao Su was amused by her cautious appearance, but his expression suddenly froze, and he said, "There are all my people around here, except for you!"

"Don't worry, I will never say it, besides, we are the mother of the same boat, you capsized the boat, what good do I have!" Shumin grinned and said: "If this comes out of someone else's mouth, I will really be scared, but when it comes out of your mouth, it is not scary at all." ”

"Why?" Yao Su originally intended to scare her, and there were some exceptions that didn't scare her.

"Because you have a nice face. Shumin smiled.

Although he is not good-looking, he is very heartwarming when he laughs, and it is especially easy to gain the favor and trust of others.

Yao Su unconsciously touched his disguised face. When he was disguised, he only thought that he must be ordinary and ordinary, so as not to attract attention, but he didn't expect that it would still have this effect.

"Master Yao, do you have a business in the south?" Shu Min thought of the problem of two crops of rice and felt the need to study it.

"My business is a restaurant and Caoyun, and there is also a business in the south, why does my wife ask this?"

"Have you ever heard about two crops of rice in the south?" Shumin asked.

"Two-cropping rice is not a secret in the south, everyone knows it. Why did Madame ask once?" Yao Su was puzzled.

"Then does Master Yao know if there is anyone in our east who can grow two crops of rice?" Master Yao is well-informed, maybe he knows?

"No, if there were, we would have planted it a long time ago, after all, being able to grow one season means doubling the amount of food, and no one can resist this temptation. Yao Su replied.

"That's right. Shumin sighed and thought to himself: It seems that these two crops of rice are not so easy to grow.

But she didn't plan to give up, just like Yao Su said, who can resist such a big temptation?

It seems that I will have to specialize in farming in the future, and I am also from a farmer anyway!" Shumin said in his heart.

After eating, it was already dark. Shu Min sat down for a while, then took his leave and prepared to go back. Yao Su ordered someone to drive her back to Baili Village.

After a bump, she almost didn't make up for dinner, Shumin was very uncomfortable with the current carriage, and when she got out of the carriage, she took a deep breath, as if she had been reborn.

"It's better to live than die in a carriage!" Shumin sighed, his back aching.

"Hui'er Niang. What did Master Yao say?" Li Zheng had been waiting outside for a long time, and when he saw Shu Min coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked.

"Don't worry, Uncle Lizheng, Master Yao said that conscription and food collection are generally in the autumn, if it happens in the spring, it will not be too heavy, I believe we should have no problem. Shumin replied truthfully.

"That's good. When Li Zheng heard this, a hanging heart finally let go. As long as the grain is not much, there will be no problem in Baili Village, after all, so much business is placed there.

It is difficult to talk about other villages, especially in the west, and they have to turn to the east for food. (To be continued.) )
