Chapter 153: Raising Food
"That's a random fight!" Zhou Yu paused, "Yes, anyway, the cost is from the treasury." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
"Although drilling wells is a top priority, there has been no effective rainfall in the north for two consecutive years, and there is no grain harvest, so it is even more important to release grain. It's a pity ,......"
"What a pity?"
The emperor also pointed to digging wells to solve the problem, so there was no need to put grain. There is not much food in the treasury either. ”
How is the treasury so poor and nothing? Oh, by the way, the country has only been built for a few generations! Too. Ancestor, too. Zong, and then the current emperor, is only three generations, and the treasury was almost nothing when the country was founded. Too. Zongshi can accumulate a little, and the emperor only succeeds to the throne today, which seems to be really poor!
Zhou Yu was thinking about this there, Nangong Luo turned his head and saw Zhou Yu's thoughtful little appearance, but he dispelled some worries.
He's just a prince, what do you care about so much? These are all things that the emperor should worry about. But how innocent the people were.
In the final analysis, Nangong Luo is a loving prince who can't see the people suffering. Therefore, he is destined to work hard, but he cannot get the support of the emperor, but is suspicious of the emperor.
This is also right, you are a prince, the emperor's heart, what do you think? Want to be the emperor? Well, quite a reasonable conjecture.
"Whether it's money or food, you can raise it from the people! Why only think of coming out of the treasury? "Zhou Yu is puzzled, in modern times, it is a very prosperous folk fund-raising and fund-raising, which should also be applicable here!
"I've thought about it, too, but those officials won't make this proposal."
"Why?"
"Because whether it is raising money or raising materials, if you want to raise money, you must first start with hundreds of officials. None of them wanted to be in this form in the future, so no one mentioned it at all. ”
"Didn't the emperor think about this method?"
"Of course I did. However, as soon as the emperor opens his mouth and has this idea, the officials will twist into a rope and oppose it. The emperor has always used the art of checks and balances, and the method of raising will make the hundred officials form a unified front, so the emperor does not dare to speak easily! ”
What a hassle! Zhou Yu looked at Nangong Luo, only to see that his brows were tightly locked, and he was sincerely worried about the people. The food in the space can be used! As for digging a well, it should be possible to drill up the space water.
Zhou Yu suddenly thought that when she took Nangong Luo out of the space in the morning, she didn't enter the Maze Pavilion at all, but came out of the space directly. Then, at this moment, Nangong Luo doesn't remember the space? Zhou Yu watched it for a long time, but he couldn't recognize whether Nangong Luo remembered it or not.
Forget it, just ask. Zhou Yu asked, "Chenfeng, do you remember what happened in the morning?" ”
"Yes. There's some confusion, though. ”
Nangong Luo did remember some, much clearer than those so-called dreams before. He even remembered making a mark on the hem of his clothes, and he had seen it. Unfortunately, the traces are faint and almost nonexistent. But, at least, it proves that he did experience what he thought was a dream.
"I'll take you one more time."
Before Nangong Luo could react, Zhou Yu took him into the space. This time, I didn't go into the love pavilion.
"Here, I've really been here!" Nangong Luo was not surprised, and his tone was relatively calm. Maybe it's really some fragmentary memories.
They came to the original space, and the building was still in front of the small cottage. Actually, the house is a door facing east from the west. The original villas in the other spaces have a north-facing south-facing door. Nangong Luo didn't go in, and Zhou Yu didn't go in either.
Nangong Luo, who was walking in front, walked to the north one by one, and stopped when he saw the big characters of the Lost Love Pavilion.
"I've been here before." is a positive statement.
"Yes, I've always taken you in from here and out of here." Zhou Yu did not hide it.
"So I don't remember being here?"
"Yes." It's really smart, Zhou Yu complained secretly.
"I still don't remember some things, I can't remember anything."
"You don't remember, how do you know if you remember?"
"Feeling."
"I don't know which part of you didn't remember, so I'll tell you when I find out." Zhou Yu really can't judge now.
"Hmm."
"I'll take you to see something."
"Okay."
Zhou Yu pulled Nangong Luo to the Autumn Pavilion. When Nangong Luo saw those small boxes on the shelves, he was more interested.
When Zhou Yu told him that there was a large amount of grain in it, Nangong Luo's eyes lit up.
"With so much food, it can really solve a big problem." Nangong Luo just said this when he heard Zhou Yu say how much grain there was in this box. However, there is no specific data to support it.
"Then let's move out. You ask the emperor for a warehouse, so that the problem of grain will be solved. Zhou Yu said without thinking about it.
"You're thinking too simply." Nangong Luo stroked Zhou Yu's hair.
"What's the matter?"
"If the emperor sees me suddenly taking out so much grain, he will be suspicious of my intention to save so much grain."
"Huh? I really didn't expect that. Zhou Yu never seriously thought about these questions, because they were far away from her before, "So what should I do?" ”
"It's still necessary to use the method of raising food." Nangong Luo said.
"Didn't the emperor and the hundred officials oppose it?"
"Now we don't raise from home, we raise from abroad. If their interests are not moved, they will not object. ”
"Abroad? Which country? ”
"It's not decided yet. The day after tomorrow, there were envoys from several neighboring countries. After the meeting, we will discuss it. ”
"Officials in my own country are unwilling to contribute, and they are counting on other countries, why do I not believe that I can raise them?"
"That's not raised for nothing, our country will definitely give them some benefits."
"Anyway, I don't understand, it's just that, in that case, how can we take out this food?"
"After the fundraising abroad is successful, it will be raised from the private sector, not from the officials. They won't object. ”
"Isn't it okay to raise money directly from the private sector before?"
"In the past, it was really to raise money, and the rich people in the private sector were more or less related to the officials. Of course it doesn't work. Now it's just a name for private fundraising. So it doesn't matter. ”
"Oh. I see. ”
"Let's go back." Nangong Luo said.
"Okay." Zhou Yu took Nangong Luo out of the space.
Then, Nangong Luo followed what he had discussed with Zhou Yu and discussed the specific plan with his staff. Because the day after tomorrow, a messenger from abroad is coming. Time was pressing, Nangong Luo didn't accompany Zhou Yu to dinner, and he didn't eat himself, so he went directly to the study.
After Nangong Luo left the room, Zhou Yu felt hungry, so he ordered dinner and ate some by himself. Think about it, Nangong Luo, as a prince, is more concerned about the affairs of the people than the emperor, so should the emperor really guard against Nangong Luo?
