Chapter 70 The Prime Minister's Economy
In the middle of the courtyard, Qiaoyun looked very excited, and when she saw the young lady coming out, she hurriedly stepped forward and began to talk non-stop.
"Miss, Miss, it's snowing so early this year!" Stomping his little feet, he stretched out his hand to reach the snowflakes, as if this snow was so strange.
Lin Zhuyu seemed to be infected by Qiaoyun, stretched out his hand, ready to pick up the sparse snowflakes, the little hands were weak and boneless, slender, ice muscles and jade skin, a snowflake and the cold wind quietly fell on his fingertips.
Fang Cai felt a chill in his heart, and the chase in his eyes had turned into a drop of snow, crystal clear, stopping on his fingertips, as if it might disappear at any time.
As if he had thought of something again, Lin Zhiyu only felt a sense of loss in his heart. It's as if something has been lost and can't be recovered. It's just that this feeling has not yet been tasted, and Lin Zhiyu was noisy and came back to his senses.
"Miss, the slave maid saw that the charcoal in the yard was not enough, and it was all some smoke and charcoal, and I was going to go to Mr. Fu to ask for some, but Mr. Fu said that the charcoal fire in the Yuzhu Courtyard for the whole frost moon had been delivered, this ...... Seeing that the sky is about to get cold, these charcoal fires in the yard are definitely not enough to survive the winter. Chu Yun walked from outside the courtyard, his expression seemed to be very anxious and embarrassed, but with the cold wind, there were beads of sweat on his forehead.
"What? Not enough charcoal fire in the yard? Not really! ”
There is also a bit of an accident in the rain, after all, he still believes in the person of the Fu manager, and it should not be enough to deduct the charcoal fire of Yuzhu Courtyard, and the Fu manager should also know that this other object can be harsh, but if it is cold in this winter, it will not give people face, I heard Nangu say that there are many poor people who can't afford to buy charcoal fire in winter and are frozen to death, so this charcoal fire must not be short, besides, it is good that the Fu manager treats this Yuzhu Courtyard on weekdays, it should not be!
"Miss, it's really not enough, this hasn't reached the frost moon yet, the sky is getting colder, and there are only four boxes of charcoal sent in the yard, two of which are tobacco charcoal, and the young lady's house must not be usable, how can this only two boxes of charcoal survive the frost moon?"
Hearing Lin Zhiyu say this, he didn't believe himself, Chu Yun was also anxious, and began to calculate the accounts under the snowflakes in the yard, and the whole person was so anxious.
"Then have you inquired about the supply of charcoal in other courtyards for this frost moon?"
Since this shortage of charcoal is a fact, it is time to investigate. If it was only her Yuzhuyuan charcoal shortage, she would naturally not just give up, no matter what demons and monsters would always have to find out.
But if the whole house is charcoal and fire, he naturally can't rush out of the theory in such a hurry, and maybe he will fall for the trick of the second aunt.
"Miss, I know this." Chu Yun's face was embarrassed, obviously he hadn't inquired. And Qiao Yun hurriedly said that she knew.
"Huh? What's going on? Lin Zhuyu also knows that Qiaoyun is well-behaved, and he likes to wander around on weekdays, so he naturally knows more things.
"Miss, it's not just charcoal, but I know that there is a shortage of other aspects. I heard that there is a shortage of things in various yards this month, not only our yard, Aunt Qiu, and many things in the yard of the third lady have not been properly distributed, and even in the yard of the eldest lady, some items are not in order! ”
"How did you know about this?" Hearing that there were also irregularities in the regulations in Sister Shu's yard, Lin Zhiyu was a little surprised, and always felt that this matter was not so simple.
"The last time I was chatting with an aunt in the kitchen in the yard of the eldest lady, she inadvertently said that the supply of kitchen ingredients this month has been much lower than before, and she is still complaining that the food is not good enough. I also heard Sister Qiu Ju in Miss San's yard say that Miss San's recent clothing and jewelry are much less, and asked me if Miss has any less things, but I definitely won't say it! ”
Speaking of these gossips, Qiaoyun is head is Tao, with a proud face, and at the same time he did not forget to protect the ** of Yuzhuyuan.
There are fewer items in the yard of Aunt Qiu's third lady, Lin Zhuyu is not surprised, seeing Aunt Qiu's face is kind and timid, and it is natural for the second aunt to take it big. It's just that there is also a shortage in this sister's yard, and with the character of the sister, if she knows, it is inevitable that there will be trouble. Lin Zhuyu suddenly realized, could it be that something happened in the house? Otherwise, the second aunt should not dare to make such a simple example.
"Miss, I heard Aunt Zhang complain last time, and there are a lot fewer ingredients in our yard."
Hearing Qiaoyun talk about the problem of ingredients, Chu Yun remembered that he remembered something, and replied with a snort.
"That's not surprising!" It seems that the whole government has reduced the supply, so it seems that if there is not a problem with the money in the government, then there is a problem outside the government.
One of the problems in this house may be that the second aunt has no way to run the house, so the guide zhì silver can't keep up, so she has to reduce the share of each courtyard. Second, this matter was ordered by the old lady's father, after all, it is a whole house, and the second aunt may not be so bold.
If it weren't for the problem in the house, Lin Zhuyu suddenly thought of another possibility! It is very likely that it is a change in the general environment of Shengzhu, is it the rise in prices? The economy has shrunk and bubbles have phantomed, so that the value of silver money has been depreciated, materials cannot be purchased, and the share in the backyard has to be reduced.
When he thought of this place, Lin Zhiyu was shocked. If there is really a similar and modern economic crisis, then just a woman with no money and no status will definitely not be able to reverse the overall situation.
"Miss, what should I do about the charcoal fire?"
Chu Yun didn't know what Lin Zhiyu was thinking, and he was still blindly anxious about the charcoal fire.
"There's no rush on this matter, I have my own conclusion." Hearing Chu Yun say this, Lin Zhiyu came back to his senses. I felt that I had thought too much, in ancient times, where there was no money bank, the circulation of coins was not very large, and the borrowing and lending was also ordinary, so it stands to reason that there should not be an economic crisis.
"Buckle ...... Buckle ...... clasp"
Chu Yun was in a hurry to come over just now, and he hadn't even had time to close the courtyard door. Therefore, when he heard someone knocking on the door, Lin Zhiyu subconsciously looked over, but he didn't expect that this person turned out to be Rubao next to the old lady. Only then did he realize that it was inappropriate for him to stand in the courtyard, so he only entered the house with the help of Chu Yun, and Qiao Yun greeted Rubao with the past of ghosts and elves.
Rubao entered the house, and only then did she make it clear what she meant by coming—the old lady said to invite the second lady to come over.
Lin Zhuyu was also a little confused for a while, he had stayed at home for the past few days, and it stands to reason that he hadn't done anything out of the ordinary, I don't know what happened to the old lady in the past, could it be because he forgot to say goodbye recently?
I don't know why, so I can only follow Rubao for the time being, and take one step at a time, but I don't know what the old woman is singing this time!
