"That's fine, you should rest for a while when you've been running around all these years." Pan Mei Dao.

"Zhangren, don't be disappointed, it's not a big problem for me to be a Wenchen, you are a military general, if it's too full, it may not be a good thing. Since ancient times, there can only be three ends for those who are highly meritorious, one is Liu Yu, Hugh said that His Majesty is wise and martial, and with the temperament of his father-in-law, he will not do it. The second is Li Jing and Guo Ziyi, whose names are noble, actually closed their doors to welcome guests, in order to avoid disaster, and most of them don't want to end up in that kind of daylight. Then there can only be the third result, Fan Li, Han Xin! ”

"Boy, you'd better mind yourself." Pan Meile said.

Song Jiu was ready to go back, before returning to Huizhou, went to the test laboratory, he had not seen the heavenly work, and it was not a complicated production process, that is, to press out the cane juice, add lime and sulfurous acid to clarify and decolorize, evaporate the clear juice, remove the water, heat the syrup, get the crystallization, and then help the crystallization, and dry the honey. In a previous life, a family factory could have produced it. But in this day and age, it has become incredibly complicated. After two years of research, I barely got white sucrose from the testing laboratory.

If you want to really promote it, you may have to wait two or three years.

This is not in a hurry, just test the laboratory products to prove it. Song Jiu also prepared enough money to continue his research, but he was leaving, so he had to ask the students to study the direction. Let them not be in a hurry, and take out 10,000 yuan as a reward for future success. Only then did he write a letter and hand it to the capital on a fast horse. Zhao Pu has not fallen for the time being, and there will be flowers and fruits in Guangnan next year, and Song Jiu is afraid that Zhao Pu will send someone to pick the fruit. Therefore, he wrote a recital, put cane sugar in a porcelain bottle, and handed it to the capital. Explain its significance, and also show it to Zhao Kuangyin. The test workshop is located in Huizhou, no matter who comes to Guangzhou and Huizhou to serve as officials. Ask the court to order them to cooperate. Once the research is successful, it can be generalized. It will increase countless incomes for the imperial court in a year, and even half of the tea income.

Only then did she secretly send Pan Li'er to Guangzhou, Song Jiu also wanted to go back in a hurry, Yuping couldn't support her at home, but the time to go back was unfortunate, Li'er was pregnant, fortunately, it was still early before giving birth, and three or four months later, Li'er had no way to go back.

Hired a boat. Let Li'er go back by boat.

Afraid of an accident, the boat prepared a few large bags and put them next to Li'er, the boat had an accident, and the airbags were held tightly, even if they were in the Yangtze River, they could go ashore safely. Pan Mei looked at these airbags and laughed.

Song Jiu quickly rode a horse and secretly went straight to Shaozhou, from Shaozhou to Lianzhou, and entered Hunan. walked very fast, and the people of Huizhou were covered in the valley together. On the way, Song Jiu saw many Song Hou Wai, Song Hou Dao, Song Hou Weir, and Song Hou Dam. Song Houdi......

Although he erased all his official positions, he was somewhat unhappy to see this. Song Jiu was still a little proud in his heart, and his parents were addicted to it after a while.

It wasn't until he arrived in Lianzhou and Huizhou that the people knew about it. One by one, they looked at the north and cried bitterly.

Song Jiu almost made Huizhou officials to the peak, but asked him what he had done. I didn't do anything, just urge the officials below, and then occasionally take some heads, or go to the people's homes to inspect and ask for warmth. As for the legendary Bao Qingtian, none of him is similar to it. Life is not too simple, what can really be said is not to take bribes, as for accepting bribes, or to be approachable and never put on an official show. But when they heard that Song Jiu had left Lingnan, the people in most areas were so sad that they could hardly express it in words, and they were so frightened that all the Guangnan officials did not dare to tell the truth about Song Jiu's dismissal.

But all this is not important to Song Jiu.

Either there is the test and the evacuation of the students and farmers after a few years.

The capital is in sight.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Song Jiu returned home.

It was just the right time to come back, and the Song family was also in chaos. Chen Congxin said that all states and counties are indeed states and counties. The disaster area is vast, and almost a dozen states have been affected by flooding ranging from severity, and these dozen states are all important states with high population densities. But generally speaking, the entire Song Dynasty is still vast and sparsely populated, after more than ten years of recuperation, some of the brains are active, mainly in the sericulture industry and cotton industry, the loss is not large, the big deal is that the grain is expensive, so they complain about the hardship. The number of people who will be severely affected will not exceed 200,000. Unless, as in the case of Yingtianfu and Lanzhou, which were flooded again and again last year, and flooded again this year, the people really have nothing.

Then there is grain, not no grain, there is grain, Jianghuai Jinghu has grain, especially Jinghu, when there is a lot of it, it is often used to relieve the people of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Jianghuai also has a lot of grain, if the Zhongshu forcibly ordered all prefectures and counties to assist the three divisions in collecting grain and ships, exposing all directions, and encouraging private businessmen to transfer grain to the north, then the food crisis in the entire north will be alleviated.

The three divisions are not small, and the people have to use grain and grass, which is helpless, but it cannot be taken out of the treasury, so the grain should be transferred from the south at that time. Later, the remedy, Zhongshu directly tacitly looked at it, and then looked at the dynamics of various states and counties, it turned out that Li Chongju fell, not all the governors and counties saw it, they only saw one thing, Song Jiu was so much credit, and Zhao Pu's children in the rear were prieing the hind legs of Hezhou, which was not satisfied, and he said that he would get it down, and he would directly cut his nationality for the people. What will they think?

Just hug Zhao Pu's thighs, the idea is the idea of the second king, and the operation is the operation of the third division.

Both of them are Zhao Pu's political enemies, so why bother with adult beauty, Zhao Pu is not happy.

Therefore, the strategy was right, but it was not implemented well, except for the autumn tax, but it was calculated in it, not counted, and then through the public and private ships from the south to transfer more than 100,000 stone grain and rice, plus some merchants transported over the private grain, the crisis in the capital was temporarily alleviated. With this grain, it can survive until April and May next year, but the spring flowers are blooming, and the grain can still be transferred to the capital, and then the summer tax will come up.

But only the capital.

There is still grain, and there is now more arable land per capita in the north, and more grain is in the homes of major landlords, so they hoard it. Coupled with the silence and non-cooperation of the states and counties, there is no food to go by.

It's the year, the great hunger!

The problem is still back to the peasants' income, which usually says that the income of the fourth-class and fifth-class households is not high, and their net income is only a few dozen or so yuan a year, so what can they do to get by, because everything is self-produced and self-sufficient, and it does not cost much money to build a house, from grain to weaving. Therefore, there are dozens of money surpluses, and life can go on. But everything depends on buying, and it will cost them their lives. And because of the hoarding of grain merchants and landlords, the price of grain in various places has skyrocketed, and there is little money in hand. Can you afford to buy a first month's grain and a second month?

Zhao Kuangyin was faintly aware of it in the palace, so he said to Zhao Pu: "The five generations of Fangzhen are cruel. The people suffered from it, and more than 100 people were elected to serve as Confucian officials. Divide and rule the great domains, all of them are corrupt. ”

The state and county officials are very incompetent!

Zhao Pu recommended Xin Zhongfu.

Zhao Kuangyin thought about it, and finally didn't say anything.

Song Jiu couldn't understand, he was not satisfied with Zhao Pu taking it, he could still turn the sky, or he was not satisfied with Zhao Kuangyi taking it, Zhao Kuangyi could really lead the army to rebel? He thought simply, and Zhao Kuangyin thought complicated. It doesn't matter if you take down ordinary ministers, but what happens when you take down important ministers? Zhao Kuangyin highly admired Li Cunqiao in military affairs. Therefore, he is very familiar with the history of Li Cunmiao. Li Cunqiao successfully killed Guo Chongtao, and then came to deal with Li Siyuan. Li Siyuan was not convinced, and surrounded by soldiers, he rebelled and invaded Luoyang, and Li Cunmiao was burned alive.

At this time, Zhao Pu and later Zhao Kuangyi had a strength similar to Li Siyuan.

They are guilty, but they have more great merit, and they cannot be killed, if they do not plan properly. There is a possibility that something bad will happen, and soon the Song Dynasty will be torn apart.

Later, I received Song Jiu's fold and looked at the bottle of snow-white sucrose, which was the real frosting. It's so clean, it seems to be grains of white jade, powder snow. You don't need to eat it, it's so eye-catching to look at. How much does it cost to sell for a pound? No wonder he asked his concubine to borrow money and send it to the south for research. This is for the country, for his country!

Zhao Kuangyin regretted it in his heart.

OK. I endured my anger at the time, otherwise once the edict was issued and the city was abandoned, where would I find this loyal minister?

Coupled with hearing that the famine outside was serious, he was even more dissatisfied. However, Zhao Pu's strength has been cultivated, so many officials and local officials echo it, and he has not thought about whether to completely dismiss the prime minister or suppress it. The second brother Guan Jian was instigated......

There was mainly no food, and the imperial relief was in a state of vacillation.

The people began to flee from the famine,

The Hezhou project stopped, and after the Fifth Ring Bridge was repaired, Song Jiu did not plan to draw it down, and rested in the second half of the year. But fortunately, there was a break in the second half of the year, otherwise it would be taken advantage of, saying that the servants were working together on the Hezhou project, delaying the unloading.

However, the expansion of many workshops and the opening of more than 100 shops requisitioned the original relocation along with the relocation. The servants also moved, and the women of their families began to find work. This is a normal river island, busy and free. Hezhou is also not under construction, and it is gradually becoming standardized. Therefore, seeing the victims fleeing the famine, Yuping built a disaster shelter on those vacant land in Henan to help the people. It's just a pity that Hezhou is not built and cannot be given work for relief. They then buy high-priced rice and distribute it to the victims every day.

Not all large families are rich and unkind.

There are also many big households doing similar practices to Yuping, which has nothing to do with businessmen, and the landlords are still hoarding? Among these wealthy families were merchants and landlords.

This is also normal, and there are all kinds of states and counties.

But at this time, many relatives came, most of the relatives were in the Daimyo's Mansion, and when Song De was alive, he also occasionally went back to the Daimyo's hometown to see. Song De and his wife died, and the Song family gradually declined, so they cut off contact. In fact, there is a lack of real loved ones.

After the Song family developed, these relatives came to recognize each other again. Song Jiu can see this openly, human nature, it doesn't matter. Over the years, some relatives have been poor and have sent people to help them. Including a few people who were desperate, they were transferred to Hezhou to work.

Those who have the right to do good deeds have been separated by another generation, and they have been cut off for a long time in the middle, even if there are some kinship or clan ties, which are basically based on relief and are not considered exchanges. The Daimyo Mansion is a low-lying area, and this year it was also the hardest hit area.

Some people have a good life, and they buy high-priced grain when it's a big deal, and they can survive their lives, and they don't bother the Song family. It is the same in any region, there are good people and bad people, there are bad people who are not bad, the latter is the most, the former is few, and the second is also few.

But there were some relatives and clans who couldn't survive, so they came to the capital and found Yuping. Song Jiu didn't use much money this year, and Yuping didn't have a lot of money, so when she came, she gave some money and silk to let them go home. Even some relatives can't even talk about the relationship between the eighteenth generation, as long as they come, it means a little bit. These people also thanked Zero Tears and went back happily. However, not everyone received this love, so three precious eggs were produced.

found the Song family, Song Jiu did not come back, but the official dismissed, the halberd was taken away, why bother, Song Jiu was resigned, and the envoy was sent to intimidate, not to let Song Jiu resign, and now he wants to take it away, so Song Jiu talked to Pan Li'er in private about a thing, the gold medal to avoid death, and it is often sung in the play, but this thing is not good, the possibility of dying without it is very small, if you really get it or something similar, not half of the people can have a good death!

took out Song Jiu but was happy.

But these three precious eggs don't know what to do, one is the youngest grandson of Song De's uncle and uncle, Song Jiu also wants to call his cousin-in-law, and he is a relatively close relative in the hometown of the Daimyo's Mansion, although he is still far away. One is a little more distant, but he is also an elder, and Song Jiu wants to call his grandfather. There is also an elder in the surname Song, who is so high that he is afraid of people, and Song Jiu wants to call him grandfather. But the three of them are not very old, they are all in their twenties, and when they came to the capital, they were stubborn, thinking that the Song family was really in decline. Yuping didn't think about it, it was the elders who came, and asked the fifth sister to take them to the new inn to stay, and the eldest sister and the seventh sister took turns to entertain them for two days, and then gave them money and silk, you are good to go home. However, the three of them stayed at the inn and didn't leave, and then ate, drank and had fun, and even prostitutes, and the eldest sister was spicy, so they scolded. They came to Song Jiu's house again to make trouble with Yuping. thinks she is a concubine, and her brother-in-law is very lustful and almost molests Yuping.

The problem is that they are indeed elders, and Yuping is afraid of accidents, so she holds back her anger, and her husband is coming back anyway, so let the fifth sister endure her anger and continue to let them stay in the capital to play scoundrels. Coupled with all the bad news in Hezhou, Jade Ping is about to collapse. (To be continued......)
