It took another two days before the rain stopped.

Although the rain has not been heavy, it has been raining for five or six days in a row, and the entire capital is flooded. Fortunately, the capital belongs to the plains, and there are no particularly high rivers, so the whole is fine, as long as you wait for the water to slowly flow into the underground waterways.

Speaking of such a thing as a sewer in Great Xia, it also made Liu Rong surprised, but she always thought that there was no such thing as a sewer in ancient times, and when she found it in Great Xia, she was fiercely surprised for a while, if it weren't for the flooding of the capital now, there was no way to take a closer look, Liu Rong would probably have studied it carefully.

On this matter, Dong Huwei and the county lord of Yongcheng laughed for a while, knowing that it was very difficult for Lu Dao to find a chance to laugh at Liu Rong.

When I was on the side, not to mention looking for things that Liu Rong didn't know, the things they didn't know about were all solved in Liu Rong's hands, and in this way, the nerves of Dong Huwei and the county lord of Yongcheng were enlarged, and I just felt that it was abnormal if Liu Rong didn't understand it.

As soon as the rain stopped, the county lord of Yongcheng couldn't stay in the mansion, so he rushed to Liu Rong's study with the maid, and didn't care that Liu Rong was still drawing cartoons for the starling, and dragged Liu Rong out.

"It's rare that the rain has stopped, and while the weather hasn't warmed up because the rain has not yet warmed up, let's hurry out and go for a walk, I'm almost stuffy." The county lord of Yongcheng said quickly to Liu Rong.

Liu Rong put down the brush in her hand to avoid being dragged by the county lord of Yongcheng and ruining the pattern of the painted lu, before she looked up at the county lord of Yongcheng: "Are you sure you want to go out for a walk?" I heard from the maid that the terrain in the mansion is high. The terrain outside is low, and the roads in the entire capital are knee-high water. ”

"Of course, the water is over the knees, and I don't have the opportunity to go to the small pool in the suburbs to play on weekdays, but now the water is over the knees, isn't it possible to play in the water as soon as I go out." The county lord of Yongcheng said slightly: "Besides, you have been listening to Mother Chen's report on the situation of buying food and medicine all day, or listening to your two stupid apprentices come over to talk about the West Hospital, otherwise you will stay and draw some messy pictures for the starling." How tiring. It's better to go out with me to relax. ”

The county lord of Yongcheng said with a smug face, feeling that what he said was not reasonable, so he just waited for Liu Rong to be persuaded by himself and follow him out of the road. The provincial ones are stuffy in the house.

Liu Rong couldn't help but shake her head: "You." Is it that hard to go out one more day? It's been raining for so many days. The rain was now knee-high, and it must have drowned a lot of low animals, and maybe the corpses were in the water. ”

"The body has been in the water for a long time. If no one deals with it, there will be some bacteria that make people sick, and you will get out of the water, and then you will be infected with the bacteria in the water, and you will cry for some kind of illness that is not easy to treat. ”

Liu Rong's words directly frightened the Yongcheng County Lord's face a little white, and he couldn't help but confirm to Liu Rong: "Is it really so terrifying?" ”

"When did I lie to you." Liu Rong said, picked up the almost dried picture and handed it to Dong'er, and asked Dong'er to put it on the side where there was already a small stack of drawing paper, before looking up at the county lord of Yongcheng again: "So you still want to go out?" ”

The county lord of Yongcheng hurriedly shook his head, shaking his head like a rattle: "I don't want to make myself uncomfortable. ”

"But there are so many people in the house who go back and forth every day to do errands, what if they are infected?" The county lord of Yongcheng looked at Liu Rong, who was busy arranging his desk back and forth, and asked seriously.

"In fact, it's simple, as long as the prevention is done well, there should be no problem." Liu Rong said in detail how to carefully prevent infection: "Those clothes should also be boiled in boiling water, so that they will be better." ”

Liu Rong said that she couldn't help but sigh slightly: "If only someone disposed of the carcasses of the small animals in the water." This also reduces the number of germs that can cause people to get sick. ”

When the county lord of Yongcheng heard what Liu Rong said, he couldn't help but move slightly in his heart.

Liu Rong didn't pay attention to the changes in the county lord of Yongcheng, thinking that in case many people got a summer infectious disease, they still needed medication, and she didn't know how Lu Dao Chen's mother collected the medicinal herbs, so she ordered Dong'er to call Chen's mother to inquire about the situation.

Seeing that Liu Rong had instructed Dong'er to call Chen's mother, the lord of Yongcheng County hurriedly followed and instructed his personal maid to pass on the methods that Liu Rong had said before to deal with and prevent illness, so that the people in the mansion could pay close attention.

It didn't take long for Dong'er to call the busy Chen's mother, but Chen's mother was full of red light, looking at Liu Rong is face full of excitement, and without waiting for Liu Rong to come along, she couldn't help but speak: "Miss, you are really a god, the price of those grains has really risen, only one day's work, the price has risen by half, you must have expected the price to rise, we can rely on these grains to make a profit, so that the old slave can collect so much grain, right?" ”

Thinking of receiving so much food from those people in the military department, it was not enough to make the entire vacated room of the Marquis of Wending's Mansion full of food, so it could only be piled up to the Rong Mansion. Chen's mother was even more excited, this is how much silver she can make: "Miss, should we also raise the price and then sell it." ”

"If we sell it later, we will not only earn back all the money we invested before, but we will also get back twice as much." Mother Chen couldn't help but be excited as long as she thought of making so much silver, but she had never had a feeling of turning over all the silver in an instant like now.

In this world, I'm afraid that only by following a young lady like her can she experience such a great sense of achievement, especially the food received from those people in the military department, it has only been two days since I received it, and the price of food has risen so much, and the silver in it is really like being stolen.

Speaking of this, Chen's mother couldn't help but think of the affairs of the families in the military department: "Speaking of which, I want to tell the young lady an interesting thing, didn't the mansions of the military department sell us a lot of grain before, and I don't know what they think, they actually sold us all the food used at home, but this will be buying food at twice the price sold to us at some grain shops in the capital." ”

As soon as the county lord of Yongcheng heard Mother Chen's words, he couldn't help but laugh, unlike Mother Chen, the county lord of Yongcheng was the reason why those people from the Dao Military Department would do this.

Thinking that these people wanted to frame them, but the framing did not succeed, but they lost their wives and soldiers, which would be to live by buying food at double the price, the county lord of Yongcheng felt extremely happy, and because he couldn't go out before, the slightest bit of depression disappeared in an instant.

Mother Chen saw the county lord of Yongcheng smiling happily, thinking that it was because the price of grain had doubled, so she couldn't help but smile and squint her eyes: "Now, just wait for the young lady to give an order and directly double these grains." ”

"Miss, should we sell grain?" Mother Chen looked at Liu Rong blankly as she spoke, just waiting for Liu Rong to give an order.

Liu Rong laughed: "Well, since those grain merchants have started to raise prices, we naturally have started to sell grain." ”

Liu Rong paused slightly, and then instructed Chen's mother again: "From now on, you go to rent a few shops near Jinfeng Restaurant and start selling grain at the price we originally bought." ”

When Mother Chen followed Liu Rong's promise to sell food, the corners of her mouth curved, but before she could bend enough, she directly solidified because of Liu Rong's second half of her sentence.

opened his mouth and hurriedly wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Liu Rong: "In addition, you go to find some people who are good at inquiring about the news and spreading rumors, and let them spread the news about the fact that we are selling grain at the original price, so that the people of the entire capital will know about it." ”

Mother Chen heard Liu Rong's words behind her, and her face instantly fell: "Miss, if we do this, won't we be able to earn anything?" ”

"It's good to raise the price a little, it can be cheaper than those grain stores, but it's a little higher." When Chen's mother said that she was the worst, she couldn't help but look at Liu Rong with a blank eye, hoping that Liu Rong could raise the price and earn a little food.

If you haven't been busy for so long, wouldn't you be completely busy?

Liu Rong shook her head: "If the price does not increase, it will be done according to the original price." ”

"Miss!" Chen's mother still wanted to speak.

"Needless to say, this grain was originally collected to balance the price of grain." Liu Rong said without question.

Chen's mother's mood was extremely depressed in an instant, and she couldn't understand that her young lady could make so much silver, why didn't she make it, if she doubled and sold it, she could earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, maybe more.

Liu Rong saw that Chen's mother hadn't left yet, and she still wanted to persuade her, so she couldn't help but be patient: "Now that the floods are serious, the rice fields are damaged, and the people may not be able to eat next year, if we raise the price like this, won't it make them even more unable to live?" ”

"So now we have to continue to sell rice at the original price, and if we come to those grain stores and see this situation, maybe the price will not go up, maybe it will fall, just like us." That way, the people will be much more relaxed. ”

Mother Chen couldn't help but be stunned when she heard Liu Rong's words, she thought about many reasons for not raising prices, and even thought that her young lady did this to attract more customers, make the grain shop bigger, and make a famous grain store, but she didn't expect her own young lady's real thoughts.

But after this stay, what poured into my heart was full of emotion, and I only felt that at that moment, my heart was filled.

At this moment, Chen's mother looked at Liu Rong more carefully, this is their young lady.

Mother Chen nodded heavily at Liu Rong: "Miss, don't worry, the old slave will handle this matter properly." ”

Mother Chen said, no need for Liu Rong to say more, then turned around and walked out, these things are obviously her young lady's, her young lady can obviously get more things because of these, but for the sake of the people in the capital, her young lady gave up.

Miss can do this, as the mother in charge of the Wending Marquis Mansion, she can't do more for anything, better! (To be continued......)
