When Wei Niangzi returned to the countryside, she publicized the canonization of Tingfang. The people in the countryside are too lazy to envy, jealous and hate, the life of the old Wei family, everyone should still take it as a legend, don't take it seriously. They were all tenant farmers, so they chose his daughter as a concubine. If you are a concubine, you can be a concubine, and there are many people in the countryside who go to big families to be concubines. also gave birth to a child and died in life, which is not worth mentioning. How did I know that the daughter born to that aunt grew up to be so face-saving, and the Wei family brothers with her could study and go to school. After the Ye family fell, his family also rose. It's true that it's not as good as in the past, but there is still a connection with the dignitaries in Beijing. The hardships of these years are just because Wei Niangzi is hard. But the peak turned around, and his house rose again. The matter of green smoke from the ancestral tomb is something that ordinary people cannot meet.

Because everyone is accustomed to the Wei family's good eight characters, the move is also exceptionally smooth. Under the cover of the Wei family, several large truckloads of grain from the Yue family drove away from the countryside. simply hid it at Liu Da's house. In order to express their gratitude, the Yue family said that the rations of the three members of the Wei family were covered by their family. Of course, Liu Dajia does not lack this idea, but the Yue family can be a person and is more likable. However, in a few days, Yue Niangzi became acquainted with Ping'er, and she went to live in a relative's house, and no one dared to slack off. The shrewdness of Yue Niangzi can be seen.

The Yue family lives in a cluster, and there are always some cellars that are well known. After Yue Laohan carried the grain, he came back again pretending to be a trip, handed over the key to the cellar to the patriarch, and only said that he would take his son to follow Mr. Wei Jiarub and live in the capital temporarily. If there is really a famine, the Yue family can open a cellar to get grain and mix it with water. The patriarch couldn't help but be overjoyed, and it would be much easier for his family to dig out food with one more person, and he said countless good things in the clan, and happily sent people away. In this way, the Yue Wei family successfully escaped from the countryside.

In April, the weather is getting drier. The ears of winter wheat could not be pumped at all. In North China, there is a daily battle for water. The court reported a letter to King Fu, and he was so worried that he wanted to die. The more chaotic the world, the better he is to rebel, but he is not a simple rebel, he is the son of the saint, and this land is his family's country. In the past, I didn't feel anything, but now I can't wait to run for rain! The acquaintances in Qin Tianjian have no rain even after calculation. King Fu sent an urgent letter to Ting Fang, trying to ask her to calculate the rainy days.

Ting Fang received an urgent message, and she understands a fart! She studied mathematics, and Qin Tianjian was astronomy! Don't wait for such a crossover! All she could do was to cooperate with the will of the Holy God and send a steady stream of nets to North China to intercept the locusts. Looking at the map with a headache, North China is out of balance with soil and water, and it is very easy to nourish locusts. Looking at the past data, there is an average of one locust plague every two years or so. As a vested interest group, Tingfang is naturally depressed. Cement cement! Where exactly is Portland cement? Did the West invent it? Without cement, it is impossible to quickly build large-scale water conservancy projects, let alone make North China rich in water and soil. The more forests and trees there are, the more likely it is to have locust plagues. If there is cement, it is not known whether the Zhengguo Canal can be repaired.

The locust plague has been completed, and there is no rain in the sky, and the harvest in North China is already ironclad. Qian Lianggong and others could only take their relatives to Jiangnan, leaving behind the entire village and the entire clansmen. Mrs. Qian's parents and brothers were all affected by the disaster, and there was no news of them, and she cried at home every day. What shakes the country's foundation the most is that drought is no better than floods. The flood news is fierce, and you don't recognize the rich and the poor, and a wave hits down, whether you are a nobleman or an ordinary person, you will not be mistaken. But the drought is a slow process, and as early as March, people who react quickly start running. The landlord's family has grain in stock, but the people's family does not. Only the people will starve to death. The imperial power is not lower than the county, and after each drought, it is a crazy round of land annexation. It is more difficult to fight drought than to fight floods. At least after the flood, the barren land can settle the displaced people. In the drought, only the landlords were fattened.

By mid-April, King Fu couldn't take it anymore and wrote a petition asking for a ban on land sales. The information was checked by Ting Yao, and it was the early years of Kaiyuan that were imitated. The people of this land like to use history as a mirror. It is difficult for people to accept new inventions and creations. But what has happened in history has been implemented much more smoothly. The information is very complete, in order not to show the stuffing, it is all written by King Fu himself, and it is all written in the vernacular. When the political envoy saw the ugly words on King Fu's hand, it was clearly organized, and he was almost moved to cry. Putting the fold in his arms, he went straight to the Qianqing Palace.

Shengshang took the fold and patted his head: "It's me who is confused!" I forgot that there is such a way! ”

The political envoy hurriedly patted the horse and said: "In the end, it is the prince, and the ministers are not enough." ”

The prince standing beside him jumped in his heart, and reluctantly smiled: "The eleventh brother has also looked at the history books, and he has made progress." Twenty or thirty pages were folded, and the words were vulgar, but they described what he wanted to express as much as possible. It covers the dangers of land annexation and what to look out for after the ban is issued. The prince's heartbeat is accelerating, King Fu is actually a ruling talent!

The son was angry, and the saint was in a cloudy mood, and smiled at the political envoy: "Yes, it is difficult for him to be a person who is the demon king of the world, and he can even think of it." "After saying that, an edict was issued immediately, and the land in the world was forbidden to be bought and sold. This trick doesn't make much sense, you can ban it if you say it's forbidden? But before the award, after the royal wanted to clean up the local Haoqiang, one draw a quasi. At the very least, the central officials whose hometowns are in North China have to write home quickly, which may be able to slightly restrain the annexation of the clansmen.

The north side was affected by the disaster, and grain was transferred from the south, and the price of rice in the south of the Yangtze River was like a wild horse on the loose. Ting Fang's eyelids jumped as she watched prices skyrocket. The food they had saved was only enough to cover the expenses of their army. You have to prepare for the flood in the south, and it is absolutely impossible to free up. The urbanization rate in the south of the Yangtze River is the highest in the country, and countless people rely on buying grain for a living, rather than hoarding grain like farmers. There are unscrupulous businessmen who raise prices, and people who rush to buy grain can be seen on the border of Jiangnan every day. Even in ports like East Lake, the rice shops are empty day by day, and sweet potatoes are not sold.

However, in the vast North China Plain, there is too much food to eat! The capital can only continue to adjust grain. In the past few years, there was no famine, and there were a lot of savings in the country, and centralized transportation was disaster-resistant, and the problem was horizontal. The court has no money! This dynasty has always been poor jingle. In the past two years, in order to live with the people, even if he knew that the wind and rain were good, the tax rate was reduced and reduced a lot. Of course, the imperial court also saved some money, but how could that idea be enough to play like this? There might be a flood to the south! Where can it be exhausted. Facing the merchant who raised the price of grain, the saint gritted his teeth with hatred, and made a note in his heart, waiting for the famine to see how he cleaned up.

Liu Yongnian is one of those who have raised prices. There are cheap and don't take advantage of the bastard! There are countless granaries of the Liu family, waiting for them to be sold at a high price in the disaster year. In just half a month, he has made a lot of money. And Liu Yongfeng himself did not mix in the grain trade, he sold luxury goods. The famine in North China made Jiangnan Gate Valve make a lot of money by selling grain. The money earned, it is natural to spend. He followed Fang Zhide to buy gems from Westerners, and then sold them in Jiangnan through his network. Liu Yongnian looked up angrily, he knew that it was a sin to resell grain, but he did not resell luxury goods. Liu Yongfeng spared no effort in competing for the position of patriarch, and it was Tingfang that he relied on to find such a good way.

The Liu brothers swept the wealth while fighting to the death. Liu Yongnian had a splitting headache and thought, as long as Ting Fang poked in Jiangnan, his position as patriarch would not be stable. Tingfang's escape is not a secret. Let's not mention the loss suffered by the government soldiers, on the day she fled, she dragged Xu Jingchang away in disguise in front of the public, and it became a joke. Xu Jingchang has been rampant in the offshore for three years, and there are names and surnames on the rivers and lakes. He went to find Xu Jingchang's trouble, and returned with a feather, and he couldn't hide such a big movement from people at all. Without his publicity, everyone who was clever had already guessed that Mrs. Xu was Miss Su. It's just that immediately after Mrs. Xu became Lord Ye, everyone shut up. It doesn't matter if you know it or not, you can play it all dead.

But just because you don't talk about it doesn't mean you forget about it. Liu Yongfeng intentionally or unintentionally talked about how Liu Yongnian bullied Miss Su in the clan, and everyone knew it in their hearts and gradually turned against him. After all, it is the master who will be killed sooner or later, and there is no future. And Liu Yongfeng, who is in the second room, has already boarded the county lord's boat. This is the purpose of Liu Yongfeng to curry favor several times. It doesn't matter if he can really establish a friendship with Ting Fang, the people in the clan think that he can establish a friendship. Especially when Ting Fang involves foreign objects, she often has to meet people. This year, her coats are all offered by Liu Yongfeng. It also confirmed Liu Yongfeng's future in the hearts of the clansmen.

Liu Yongnian can't take care of reversing the decline of public opinion for the time being, he has mobilized countless grains, and if he doesn't sell it this time, who knows if next year will be a disaster year or a good year? Grain has a time limit, and when it is old, it must be discounted. During the dispatch, his wife Yuan walked in and whispered in Liu Yongnian's ear: "The ancestor of the clan has a letter, and the saint has ordered that prices should not be raised. This time, our family is too up-and-coming, so carefully ask the saint to remember. Shuzu meant, shrinking slightly, the gun shot the first bird. ”

The uncle mentioned by the Yuan family is the current cabinet Yuan Shoufu. Liu Yongnian frowned: "Others don't have our scale? ”

Yuan nodded: "The saints have asked about our family." ”

Liu Yongnian has some regrets, but he can go against the emperor, and there will be no good end. I had to say: "Sell it at a lower price, you can't fold it all in the warehouse, the cost is too high." I can only earn less. "After saying that he secretly scolded other families, he was simply not angry! It's only been half a month, and I can't hold it! It is also worthy of being called a famous family!

Yuan shook his head and smiled: "I don't know much about this, so I asked my father to reply." ”

Liu Yongnian said: "By the way, I asked my father-in-law for me, and thank you uncle for taking care of me." ”

Her mother's family is strong, and Yuan's family has always lived a very decent life in her husband's family. After finishing business, Shi Shiran left. When I walked to the door, I was stopped by my husband again, and I turned around and asked, "What else?" ”

Liu Yongnian said: "Did my uncle mention that there is no money in the court?" ”

Yuan thought for a while before saying, "I've heard it said, but I can't remember it specifically." The court has money or not, what does it have to do with us? It's the grain, the court doesn't buy it, someone else buys it? ”

Liu Yongnian suddenly laughed out loud and said coldly: "The rise and fall of the world is the responsibility of the husband. The court is in difficulty, how can I sit idly by? ”

Yuan Shi was inexplicable: "What do you want to do?" ”

Liu Yongnian sat back in his seat, wrote a long letter, and then handed it to his wife: "Send it to the mansion of your uncle in Beijing, remember, you must present it to him in person!" ”

Yuan knew that her husband had something important, so she immediately rushed to her mother's house, and the letter was immediately sent to the capital.

On the fifth day after Liu Yongnian sent the letter, Ting Fang received a letter that had not been paid. Open it and take a closer look, it was Chu Xiuyun's handwriting, and he said thoughtlessly: "Liu Yongnian is calculating you, be careful!" 166 Reading Network
