"Wechen is willing to take it all in." Sang Xia straightened his back, "Weichen is now sleeping on Jinshan Yinshan every day, but Jinshan Yinshan can't eat, and then buying grain in China will only pile up the price of grain higher, if there is food support from Lushan Country, the grain tax harvested in the south of the Yangtze River this autumn will be exempted, with this foundation, they will be able to ease up immediately next year, and maybe they can become a help." ”

"Exempted the tax of the three provinces in Jiangnan for the second half of the year?"

"Yes." For the sake of Jiangnan, Sang Xia has not known how many times he has fought for reason, and he will not retreat, "If there is no good news at the bottom, I am afraid that Weichen can only let the three mansions in Jiangnan suffer for a year under the lack of confidence, but now that there is another way out, Weichen wants to ask for their lives, such a big water will not be there every year, and next year I will pay attention to the water conservancy matter, how can Jiangnan be peaceful for a few years, they will accept many supports, and Weichen represents the imperial court, as long as there is one-tenth or even one percent of the people who have the heart to feed, Whether it is food or money, my Cangyun Kingdom will be like a tiger with wings. ”

Xia Zhen was clearly unwilling to exempt the three prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River from taxes, his eyes always fell on the battlefield, no matter what he wanted, the grain could not be cut off.

However, the cake drawn by Xia Er is too good, and he is willing to take a step back, "As long as you can close the gap in the tax revenue of the three prefectures, I will allow it." ”

"Wechen will be able to do it."

"Fan Dong, this year's tax collection has been temporarily postponed."

"Yes."

Sang Xia raised his head and reminded him of the previous incident, "The iron ore matter ......"

"You have a specific charter, as long as you can really exchange it for food, I have no reason not to approve it, but you also have to know one thing, you can't feed people at once. I can't let their force value exceed expectations, I don't want them to point their swords at my Cangyun Kingdom one day. ”

"Your Majesty."

"This matter should be done as soon as possible, and I also hope to relieve the food worries as soon as possible."

"Wechen obeys."

Xia Zhenming looked at her daughter who did not exceed the slightest in her words and demeanor, and sighed long in her heart, with Xia Er's performance, if she didn't know the relationship between the two, who would have thought that they were father and daughter.

Xia Zhenming was once again sure that Xia Er had made up her mind not to be close to her.

Man. It's really interesting. He is not rare, he is very rare, and he is in a hurry to show filial piety, how does he look at it.

"You've been working hard these days, and I've lost a lot of weight. Now I can breathe a little easier, so I can rest, don't push myself too far, and remember that you can't become a fat person if you eat in one go. Things are not in a hurry. ”

Sang Xia's reaction this time was a beat slower, but in the end he still responded respectfully. It is more pleasant to listen to than the micro-ministers who obey the order one by one.

Sang Xia only went to order a mao the next day and immediately returned home, "Is Brother Tao up?" ”

When she was about to get home, it suddenly rained, and Sanxia had some water stains on her face, and Pearl replied while handing her a towel. "I just got up, and now I should be eating."

"Then I'll go change my clothes first."

When she changed her clothes and came out, Tao Qingyun was already waiting for her in the main hall next to her. An Pingzhi was also sitting.

"Why don't you wake me up, will you miss something?"

"No, it won't. The day after tomorrow is the big court meeting, this matter can not just hand a fold to the emperor can be finished, I just need a little time to prepare, the big court meeting is a vegetable market, everyone is talking about their own interests, I don't want to fight with them, I can only hit hard at the beginning to make them speechless. ”

Tao Qingyun calculated the next day, it was indeed the big court meeting the day after tomorrow, and the little self-blame in his heart dispersed, and explained the situation of going to Lushan Country this time.

It is not enough to say that Lushan Country is a very small country, but it is a little smaller compared to Cangyun Kingdom.

The land boundary is only one-fifth the size of Cangyun Country, but the population is more than one-third of Cangyun Country, but there is never a famine there.

The climate there is really suitable for growing grain, they can plant three crops a year, even if there is a natural disaster, they will not starve to death, but the number of people who will die a year is no less than that of Cangyun Country.

Wen Wen brought four recipes researched by his master, two of which were useful, almost as soon as the news spread, Wen Wen was praised as a miracle doctor, plus his master stayed in Lu Shanguo for two years to save a lot of people, and also left some shadow, Lu Shanguo, who was extremely repulsive to outsiders, immediately accepted him, and the people he brought with him were also courteous.

Wen Wen did not immediately state his purpose, and it was not until more and more people were cured that he unintentionally talked about the disaster in his hometown, and in some places it was so serious that he had to change his children's food, and many people who had received his favor immediately sent food.

Not bag by bag, nor by cart, but directly to the granary that is about to overflow, let them find a way to take away.

Wen Wen was born with a good face, coupled with his patience and calmness towards everyone, the smile on his face never came down, and when he no longer concealed that he wanted to do his best for the people in his hometown, he didn't make people hate when he exchanged what Lushan Country needed for food.

Things went more smoothly than expected, and it wasn't long before he was ushered into the palace.

"That's it?"

"Almost, Dr. Wen said that iron ore is to them what food is to us, we are here to save lives, and they are to refine weapons suitable for them to protect the country, so we can talk about it." Tao Qingyun also admired Wen Wen in his heart, "It's also a shame to have Dr. Wen with us, compared to him, we seem useless." ”

"It's not comparable to compare with others with your own shortcomings, Brother Tao thinks differently."

Tao Qingyun wanted to say that he didn't mean to depreciate himself, but his heart was very warm, and the words he said became, "It's me who thinks about it, by the way, this is a letter from Dr. Wen to you." ”

Sang Xia opened the letter on the spot, and the contents of it made her face change a little, and An Pingzhi hurriedly took it and read it.

"Yuzhu Arrow?" An Pingzhi looked at Tao Qingyun, "Does Qingyun know?" ”

"I know, I also tried it, it is indeed much better than that of Cangyun Country, it is made of a jade-white bamboo, which is lighter than the one we use, but the range is more than one-third, but it is said that the production of this kind of bamboo is limited, even in Lushan Country, not everyone can have it, what Dr. Wen said in his letter?"

"Yes." An Pingzhi looked at the person whose eyes were obviously brighter than usual, "Got an idea?" ”

"Of course there are ideas, but this is urgent, they have a lot of food, in their opinion, it is worth exchanging grain for iron ore, but if you add jade bamboo arrows, this business may not be so easy to do, maybe you won't even sell us food, you have to get the grain first, and then talk about it when your stomach is full."

An Pingzhi nodded, "That's right, what way do you plan to exchange food with the other party?" (To be continued) combined
