Chapter II: Deliberation
(PS: I'm sorry.,Due to computer reasons.,Said to be updated at half past 10 in the morning.,Get it now.,I'm very sorry.,Dear.,Love you ~~~)
Li Huizhi felt that she couldn't stay here any longer, she left the tea field as if she had fled, she was afraid of seeing the scene that made her heart ache even more, she was afraid that if she looked at it again, she would shed tears again. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info She never thought that people in the world had such a hard life!
The reason why the price of rice is so high is that Li Huizhi knows very well: the three rice merchants in this county have controlled the price, and no one dares to sell it at a low price! These three rice merchants are no less than vampires!
First of all, the people who ran the boat had no life, and the rice from other places could not enter the county through the canal! So they can control the price of rice as they please!
When the harvest is scarce, the price of rice is raised very high, and when the autumn harvest comes, the price of rice is extremely low, so that those rice farmers have no hope.
It's simply inhumane!
Today's plan, it is useless to say more, since they can't be defeated for a while, the only way to quickly get a batch of rice from other places to solve the dilemma in front of the tea field.
Before she knew it, she had taken the matter into account, and now that she saw it, she couldn't treat it as if nothing had happened! The swarthy, thinly bowed figure dangled around her like a shadow, and those poignant smiles made her burst into tears.
When the great poets see people working hard, they often write something: "Who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard work!" Such poems can be praised by the world, and they can soar because of this.
But that doesn't solve the real problem for people who can't eat, and people still can't eat! Only by putting the rice they bought in front of them so that they can have a full meal, that is realistic!
Now that the silver in her hand is ready-made, she must find a way to get some rice!
Xiao Yu brought some food over. Li Huizhi didn't eat much for breakfast, and she didn't eat anything at noon, but she didn't eat anything, and she didn't return home until now. Xiaoyu immediately gave her Zhang Luo something to eat.
But when Li Huizhi saw these exquisite foods, she immediately thought of those hungry black and thin people again. How can she eat?
I don't know how the rice grain market in the neighboring county is. Li Huizhi thought of Master Wei. Recently, he has been busy with the purchase of a batch of military rations. Maybe he's better aware, ask him tomorrow.
Early the next morning, Li Huizhi rode a horse to find the county magistrate.
Li Huizhi did not dare to tell Gao Hong the actual situation of the tea farmers. This stunned man's temper is too strong, and he is afraid that he will immediately rush to the surnamed Deng to ask for his life! But that doesn't help at all.
Only when you are very sure of dealing with the three families can you knock them down with one blow, otherwise they will only be able to stretch out their spearheads, and when the time comes, they will not take care of themselves, where can they talk about bringing them down?
I don't know if Master Wei has come up with some solutions!
Today I was lucky to meet Master Wei.
I haven't seen him for many days, but Master Wei is still so handsome, still drinking tea and reading books by the bamboo forest. But Li Huizhi was not in the mood to appreciate the handsome guy at this time. I don't know if it's because I'm in a bad mood, when I see Wei Shuai, I also feel that his good-looking eyes also have a hint of melancholy, or is he like this?
The melancholy Wei handsome guy looked very happy to see Li Huizhi come to the door in person. He has long regarded Li Huizhi as a good friend. Especially after she came up with two great ideas for herself.
Li Huizhi didn't even realize that Brother Wei had already instructed the people in the yamen that Miss Li didn't need to be notified when she came, she thought that the backyard of the county yamen was originally so easy to enter.
In fact, he also knew about the events of the Yanyulou Conference on that day, and he had also talked about these things with some merchants in the county in advance, hoping that they would also agree with this approach. But they also said that it depends on what Master Deng means!
It was not easy for Master Wei to go in person that day. Originally, it was just a private meeting between merchants, and he, as a figure in the court, was caught in the middle, which was not conducive to the situation.
For failing to help Li Huizhi, he felt a little guilty. Although he had already lent 20,000 taels before.
Today, when Li Huizhi proposed that she wanted to go to other counties to buy grain, Master Wei said happily: "You are the same as I think!" I also went to the next county a few days ago to inquire, and the price is more affordable than ours in the county, but how to get it, this is a problem! ”
In order to break the bullying and hegemony of the three grain merchants, the introduction of foreign grain is a good way to crack down.
The merchant who sold rice was very talkative, and the price was fair, although it was still higher than after the autumn harvest, but it was also a conscience price.
Originally, they also had a ship to deliver the goods, but as soon as they heard that it was delivered to this county, they thought of the three bullies here, and immediately waved their hands: "It's no problem for you to buy rice from me, but if you deliver it, I can't do anything!" ”
The wharf was bought by rice merchants, and goods from other places could not easily enter the wharf, and rice was absolutely not allowed to enter the county. As soon as Master Wei talked to the three major rice merchants about this, they started a roundabout.
Master Wei wanted to come hard, but the county master told him that they would definitely make some moves in secret, and then they wouldn't admit it.
Alas, speaking of these things, both of them had a headache.
Immediately afterwards, Master Wei said something that gave Li Huizhi even more headaches: Miao'er from Yixiang Music Workshop asked Master Wei about Li Gongzi every day and asked him why he hadn't seen her for so long!
Li Huizhi was taken aback, after so long, I didn't expect Miao'er to still remember her! She'd long ago left her behind.
Li Huizhi smiled: "What else are you going to do!" Didn't you tell her that I was actually a woman? ”
"Say, she didn't believe it at all! And scolded me. She also asked me, has Huo Xiaoyu's matter been forgotten? Are all men in the world so ruthless? Master Wei shook his head.
Huo Xiaoyu!
Huo Xiaoyu's death has long become a matter of news in the county and even in Huzhou streets. When everyone mentions her, they will definitely shed a tear for her, and by the way, they will spit on the affectionate Li Yi again!
I heard that there was an extra river in front of Li Yimen, and it was all the saliva of people passing by.
The situation of Huo Xiaoyu's death that day immediately returned to Li Huizhi's mind, and she didn't expect Miao'er to compare her with Huo Xiaoyu, so wouldn't she become a kind Li Yi!
"You'd better go see her! She seemed to be sick. Master Wei shook his head again.
Li Huizhi asked Cangtian speechlessly. What's going on!
"Then I'm ......"
"Let's wear men's clothes! I recommend...... That day really played big! It might be better for you to tell her yourself. Master Wei sighed for a while, and stopped talking.
Is it so serious?
That day, Miao'er's tearful eyes when she parted appeared in front of Li Huizhi's eyes again.
Li Huizhi secretly regretted it, but regret was useless, how could she know that she would meet her that day? No wonder there were so many thin faces in ancient times! Before you fall in love, you have to figure out what you are interested in!
When Huo Xiaoyu fell in love with Li Yi, why didn't he determine his character first? This is even more amazing, basically I can't even tell whether it's a man or a woman! It's no wonder that you don't get hurt this way.
But it's useless to say these things now, if you don't want to be regarded as Li Yi's second, you still have to go and see Miao'er!
Big head!
Go...... Just go for it......
Li Huizhi doesn't want to continue to talk about this issue, let's talk about buying rice. Since the price of rice in neighboring counties is suitable, it is imperative to solve the problem of transportation.
Li Huizhi thought of Xu Sheng and them, if they really ran the canal since their ancestors, it shouldn't be a problem to find them, right? It's just that I'm afraid that those people surnamed Deng will find bandits to intercept them halfway, that's almost certain!
Master Wei can send the only dozens of people in the county to catch fast, but for those bullies surnamed Deng who have hundreds of families at every turn, the difference in strength is too great.
Forget it, I don't want to think about it, when I go back, discuss my eldest brother Gao Hong to see if he has any way.
One thing after another, Li Huizhi was overwhelmed. Although there is no solution yet, the general direction is finally there. Then it depends on Wei County's order to negotiate the price of rice with neighboring counties, and when to pay for the delivery.
Although things are urgent, we can't always think that it will be done in one day. Li Huizhi has been until now, and finally relaxed her tense nerves.
She rubbed her forehead and leaned back on the chaise longue in a more comfortable position.
Not to mention, the Hu chair that Master Wei bought is quite comfortable to lie down like this, and the pattern is a bit like Huanghuali's. I don't know if it's or not
How much can such a chair be worth in modern times, Li Huizhi has no intention of thinking. In an age full of antique items, this one is not unusual.
After all, this place is still very suitable for resting, the bamboo leaves are rustling, under the shade, the breeze is blowing, and Li Huizhi, who has put down her worries for the time being, fell asleep quickly.
Yesterday, after a day of rushing, I was too excited, and I didn't sleep well at night, and now my nerves are suddenly relaxed, and of course it is easy to fall asleep.
When I woke up, it was already west.
Brother Wei is still in front of him, but he is no longer reading, but he is quietly painting on the side of the stone table, with a focused expression, a handsome mustache, and a stroke of a pen showing the literati's appearance, even the slightly melancholy eyes are very suitable at this moment, and the incense burner next to him is burning with a curling cigarette.
Li Huizhi didn't expect that she would fall asleep, and it was really embarrassing to think about it. She is a well-known Yu lady in the county, and she fell asleep so peacefully in the courtyard of the dignified county order.
But from a tourist's point of view, only by trying everything can it be called worthwhile! It's a relief when you think about it.
It's only to blame this county magistrate for being too approachable, otherwise he can't be so relaxed!
If it weren't for the fact that he was still thinking about his thoughts, such a demure picture in front of him was really a peaceful picture of the quiet years, which was worth appreciating.
In the ancient times when there were no mobile phones, no wifi, no bars, and no KTV, people could also find their fun, and they didn't feel bored at all. Reading, painting, drinking tea, and burning incense are all very meaningful things.
Li Huizhi turned over slightly, but found that she was covered with a men's tulle blouse. Presumably, Brother Wei was afraid that she would catch a cold lying in the shade of the bamboo, so he specially covered it.
A warm current surged in Li Huihui's heart.
This kind of unobtrusive care is the easiest to touch people's hearts.
When Master Wei saw that Li Huizhi was awake, he immediately smiled and said, "Are you hungry?" Refreshments are all for you! At noon, I want to wake you up to eat, but I can't bear to wake you up when I see that you are sleeping too soundly! ”
What a warm man! Li Huizhi couldn't stand this gentleness anymore.
