When the old woman was gone, the servant Lin Dacai said worriedly next to his own young lady: "Miss, if you collect the women and children like this, the rice and grain we carry will not last long." ”

"How long can I last with the remaining rice and grain?" Miss Lin frowned.

"Less than ten days."

"Why hasn't the rice and grain purchased from other places arrived?"

"Some of them are on the way, because the flood has affected the area too widely, the rice grain has risen in different ranges in various places, and the nearby area has more than tripled." Lin Da looked angry.

"Alas, the victims have been so hard. There are still people who raise the price of rice. How do these people's hearts grow? Intensify the delivery of rice and grain from other places, and continue to purchase rice and grain at a price two levels higher than the market price. The nearby rice and grain were eaten as much as they could according to the belongings they brought this time. ”

"But this cheapens the profiteers. The cost is too huge, I'm afraid of the master..."

"Daddy, I'll go and say that it's free, and accept my fate. I can't care about that much now. If you have the right to do things, can you still have more money than human life? Uncle doesn't need to say much, go and handle it quickly! Miss Lin glanced at the victims with vegetables on their faces, and the children who were crying, and said with a straight face.

"Yes, miss." Lin Da knew that his young lady was a decisive character, and even the master might not be able to persuade him to decide what he had decided, and he didn't dare to dissuade him when he saw that he had made up his mind.

Manpower will be difficult to resist in the end, and Miss Lin is secretly sad. She herself knows that she can't change the whole situation on her own. She can't blame the government too much for this disaster relief.

As soon as the victims arrived, the government opened warehouses to release grain and mobilized the people in the city to donate food and materials. Organize manpower to build shacks. What he has done is already the ultimate in the power of a county.

There are so many people in the disaster that I just breathe a sigh of relief. Unless the imperial court... Alas, the area affected by the disaster was too large, and the imperial court's all-out relief efforts were only to maintain vitality and not collapse.

The entire Dazhao is not without grain, but most of the money and grain are in the hands of the big nobles and wealthy merchants. They also want to take advantage of the flood to swallow up more land, and it is wishful thinking to expect them to do their best to relieve the disaster.

Unless the imperial court does not hesitate to shake the foundation and forcibly expropriate from these people, it will be so difficult to snatch food from the mouths of these pixiu! Even if she Miss Lin has made repeated gains in the mall, she is at a loss for this, and there is nothing she can do.

Just as Miss Lin was thinking hard about how to break the game, she heard a loud shout. I saw a servant rushing over, still holding three pages of paper in his hand, and cheering as he ran: "Miss, great joy, great joy!" ”

"What's so exciting? Is there any system? Lin Da scolded his subordinates who ran over.

"Steward Lin, the imperial court's disaster relief rice and grain have arrived, and the county government has also shown the announcement of the people. The villain has already asked Mr. Tent to copy it, and the young lady has watched it. ”

"Bah! How can there be three. Could it be that the imperial court issued three official documents in a row? It can be said that this disaster relief is very important. Miss Lin took the three official documents with her bare hands and looked at them carefully.

"Cash-for-work? Women and children are all collected and used to strengthen the river? A good way to kill two birds with one stone. The vision of the Lord of Beijing is really not comparable to that of a little woman of mine. What about this one? Seedlings Trial? New law! A new law that makes sense! It's so close, and even the follow-up reconstruction of the disaster has been considered, I don't know if it's the handiwork of that adult? Brilliant and outstanding! It's a pity! These policies are all based on one foundation, which is sufficient money. Won't I be fooled by what I say? Could it be that the imperial court really intends to empty the treasury and eat grain? Or is it forced to requisition grain? If something happens, it will be a move to shake the foundation of the country. Could the imperial court approve such a radical proposal? Is there anything else to hide in this last official document? Miss Lin flipped to the third one, her beautiful eyes were shining, and she didn't say a word for a long time, with a heavy and thoughtful look on her face.

Everyone did not dare to make a single sound for fear of interrupting their own young lady's thoughts, and their own young lady only appeared this expression when she was weighing important decisions.

After a long time, Miss Lin exhaled: "Good intentions, good plans, good means!" What a hand to transfer flowers and trees! The conditions that are put forward by people like us merchants cannot refuse, this is a reshuffle opportunity that can change the current business pattern, so how can we give up! Don't take the righteousness of the court and lure it with profit, it is clearly the means of my business! When did such a talented and well-known figure appear in Beijing, and my businessman's life will not be easy in the future! ”

"What is it about the official document that makes the young lady so amazed?" Lin Da couldn't remember how long it had been since he had seen his young lady show such a look.

"Look at it, especially the third document."

Lin Da took the official document handed over by the young lady, the first and second official documents, although important, had little to do with him. It shouldn't have caused such a big reaction from the young lady. Lin Da took a cursory look and left it behind.

Ponder the third document. He has been the business deputy of the master for many years, and he naturally tastes the meaning.

Take his Ying Tianfu as an example, except for the Lin family, which is the leader. There are still two cloth merchants, the Li family and the Zhang family, which are only weaker than the Lin family. If one of the two families is allowed to win a title higher than the Lin family, not to mention the high-grade silk purchased from the Southern Tang Dynasty, the limelight of domestic silk can completely overshadow the Lin family.

If it's just the limelight, that's fine. Others can lead to a range of problems.

For example, your Lin family's title is lower than that of another family, and the silk farmers below are very confident in the credibility of the imperial court.

Your low in the eyes of the silk farmer means that you are inferior to others in all aspects, and under the same purchase price, the silk farmer will subconsciously sell silk to people with high titles. When the raw silk is backward, the output and variety of silk cannot keep up, and the market will shrink. One step behind, one step behind.

Not to mention that the Lin family still wants to take the lead, and it is considered to be a good business to sell the shop after not being left behind.

Lin Da said anxiously: "How is this good, the young lady can go back quickly to discuss with the master!" ”

"Well, Lin Da, clean up. Return to Yingtian! ”

"Yes, miss." Lin Da knew what was important, "What about the remaining rice and the women and children who have been gathered?" ”

"The remaining rice grain was donated to the government in the name of the Ying Tianlin family, and the rice grain on the road was the same, donated to the nearby regional government of the disaster. As for the women and children who are willing to follow us, they will follow us and settle in the shops. If you don't want to, don't force the distribution of rice, grain, and money. Miss Lin thought about it for a moment and arranged things properly.

"Yes, Miss, please Miss set off first, and the servants will arrive after the hand." Lin Da took the order.

"Please." After saying goodbye to Lin University, Miss Lin immediately packed up and set off, and she was not as neat as a man. There were many more people in the small team, including the old woman of the Li family who migrated with the Lin family as a domestic helper, and the big and small stone family.
