Chapter 134: Bloody Battle of Xuanhuang [4]

In the hands of the family, there are naturally enough resources.

Otherwise, they would not be able to call the word 'family'.

What is a Saga called?

Taking the Qin and Han dynasties as an example, in the early days, it was a family of nobles who obtained high positions due to the troubled times, and because of their bloodline.

In the middle and late Han Dynasty, it was a group of people who mastered knowledge and official positions.

Noble by knowledge, morality, and blood.

The family of the Qin and Han dynasties is only the beginning of its existence.

The pinnacle of the family is after Sima Daiwei!

Jin Dynasty!

In the Jin Dynasty, where the word 'celebrity' is a title for the sons of the family.....

Speaking of which, there are many similarities between the Jin Dynasty and the Song Dynasty.

It's all the kind that is not right....

Ahem.

In other words, in fact, the original ruler is overthrown by his subordinates, and then the subordinates themselves elect a leader to become the new ruler.

Sima of the Jin Dynasty.

The Zhao family of the Song Dynasty.

They are all 'elected' to the top by the people below.

And these people who succeeded in overthrowing their top bosses are undoubtedly the families of the new dynasty!

In other words.

As a family, you must have the ability to influence the situation.

Shengshi has an official position and influence.

In troubled times, there are soldiers and food.

Cao Wei, Xiahou, Zhuge , Xun, Yuan, Gongsun during the Three Kingdoms period.... These are examples of the Maison.

What was the attitude of the Maison at that time?

In one go, he took out the military rations that supplied 100,000 troops for the previous year, and he could make a county and a state rebel with his mouth.....

It's terrifying!

Of course.

The family of the Southern Song Dynasty, after several dynasties, weakened the royal power, and no longer had the strength of the Qin and Han dynasties.

But he still bears the name of the family!

There is still quite a lot of strength left!

These families are not to mention raising military rations for a while.

If it's really necessary.

You're really getting them to join forces to feed five million people across the North, and they don't even have a first glance in their eyes!

You know, this is the Song Dynasty!

It was the Song Dynasty that had enough money to buy cities, prefectures and counties, and even the emperor's position from the Jin State!!

once boasted of Haikou, and wanted to exchange the gold and silver seas for the sixteen continents of Yanyun.....

Although those who said this, in the end, failed.

But their financial resources are revealed in front of this world!

Would such a country have no resources?

Of course!

In whose hands are the country's resources?

Relatives of the emperor and a big family.

Nine out of ten!

Those who are rich, to what extent?

Just like Lan Li came to Linjiang for the first time, he spent thousands of dollars just to buy one for fun....

100,000 taels of silver, spent in one night.

It is equivalent to a quarter of the annual tribute paid by the Southern Song Dynasty to the Jin State.

However!

His behavior, in the eyes of many families, is actually normal!!

And what about the price of grain?

In ordinary years, a stone of rice (about 50-60 catties) is about two taels of silver, and here it is the fine grain eaten by the middle and upper class people, if it is called the rest of the coarse grain, the price will be cheaper.

Two taels of silver for fifty catties of rice.

One hundred thousand taels is two hundred and fifty thousand catties......

How much rice can a person eat in a normal diet in a year?

can eat two hundred and fifty pounds, that's a pot-bellied man!

Normally, 250 catties of grain per year can feed a family.....

Other words.

The cost of one night of Lan Li is enough for thousands of families to eat a year's worth of food!

And this, in the eyes of the Southern Song Dynasty.

Although a bit overdone.

But it's normal!

From this phenomenon alone, we can see how huge resources the families of the Southern Song Dynasty had.

But right now, Lin Qian prayed for food and grass for the Northern Army, but these people said no?

Zhao Long'er, a soft and cute girl who has not been deeply involved in the world, was said by Li Mochou, and she stupidly believed it.

But Li Mochou?

After enjoying more than a year of fine clothes and food in the Lan family, how could she not tell the meaning of shirk in those mouths!

Something they definitely have.

But why should they give it to you?

Because you are Yue Pengju, you are on the road to fight against the Jin Kingdom?

Be.

In terms of the righteousness of the family and the country, the family does respect Yue Pengju's ideals.

But a person can't just live in an ideal!

They also have to eat, they have to live, and they also need to judge the situation....

Or, all of the above is nonsense.

It is these families who are not optimistic about Yue Pengju, and they are not willing to support Yue Pengju's self-reliance and success!

This is a very real problem.

Everyone has their own ideas, and even more so the children of the family.

If you want others to support you, you naturally have to show your due value!

If Yue Pengju succeeds and elects a Zhao Zhijing to the throne, will they get any benefits?

Money? Power? Land? Title?

I'm sorry.

They have a more secure way to get these things.

So, why do they want to support you Zhao Zhijing?

When the risk and return are not proportional, when the input is much smaller than the harvest.

It is very difficult for Zhao Zhijing, the 'prince of the former dynasty', to gain the support of the family.

In other words, now you are an internal employee of Tencent, and you have a lot of Tencent shares in your hands.

Would you choose to sell Tencent's Dad's stock and invest in LeEco?

Even in LeTV, you buy and buy, and you buy it as a shareholder.....

And then expect LeTV to kill Tencent's father?

Ahem.

It may not be right, but that's what it means......

......

......

Time of the day down.

Lin Qian visited many families in Xiangyang City.

The harvest is slim.

Well, if the promise of a single twenty stone coarse grain can also be regarded as a harvest, Lin Qian is not a harvest.

When Lin Qian returned to her residence with a verbal check.

This strong man who has been away from the world for many years has felt the meaning of 'the world is hard' for the first time.

And Li Mochou and Xiaolongnu, who followed behind their master.

It's a look of loss.

"Senior sister, twenty stone of grain, how much?"

“..... Probably enough for ten people.... Eat for a year, right? ”

What Li Mochou said was a little uncertain.

But I'm not in the mood to calculate it carefully.

In one day, get back twenty stone of food?

Well.

The minimum threshold agreed upon by Master and Yue Shuai was 100,000 stones.

In other words, if you can ask for 20 koku a day in the future, you will be able to collect it in about 5,000 days.

There are 365 days in a year, and 5,000 days is more than ten years......

Thinking of this, Li Mochou's eyelids couldn't help jumping a few times.

More than ten years?

I'm afraid it's not a joke!

"Senior sister, how long will it take us to complete the task?"

Li Mochou: "......"

Li Mochou didn't know how to answer Zhao Long'er's words.

Lin Qian, who had a calm face on the side, was as black as the bottom of a pot at this moment!

Twenty stone grain?

Fifty taels of silver?

This is the result of her Lin Qian taking two apprentices for a busy day?

If you can.

Lin Qian couldn't wait to carry a knife to the door, pull out the skin of those black-hearted families who were blinded by lard, and then fry the grain out of the fat on their bodies!

Pity.

This thought just flashed through Lin Qian's mind.

The next second.

She ran to the back of her head and went somewhere.

"Hey...."

Thinking of the almost identical disgusted faces of the families in the city, Lin Qian sighed aggrievedly.

Seeing her turn around, she stared at Li Mochou for a moment, and then asked in a low voice:

"Mo Chou, you have also lived in Xiangyang City for a long time, can you know some friends who can prepare military rations for us?"

Li Mochou....

His mouth opened, and Li Mochou didn't know what to say.

How long has she lived in Xiangyang City?

That's right!

But she is a 10,000-year-old dead house who doesn't go out of the Lan family..... Who else can you know?

Go to Lan Li and try it?

100,000 stone of grain ....

Estimate... Probably... Possible... Not a big problem?

I thought of the scene I saw on the street today when the Lan family released grain and calmed down the grain prices in Xiangyang City.

Li Mochou's heart was even more entangled.

With 100,000 stones of grain, the Lan family may not be able to take out so much for a while.

But as long as Lan Liken helps, it is estimated that it is a matter of mouth.

But is she really going to Lan Li for help?

Obviously, he only left the Lan family yesterday.

Make a U-turn today.

Go to Lan Li and ask for 100,000 stone of food?

Li Mochou found that he couldn't open this mouth!

So.

Facing the master's questioning, Li Mochou could only bow his head.

Speechless.

And when Lin Qian saw Li Mochou's appearance, she couldn't help but sigh again.

It is said that the daughter Mo Ruomu is the mother.

Seeing Li Mochou's expression, how could Lin Qian not guess this girl's thoughts?

If she goes to the Lan family, she will definitely gain something.....

On the one hand, it is the righteousness of the family and country, and on the other hand, it is the careful thinking of his half-disciple and half-female disciple.

Lin Qian......

"Forget it, since we can't raise it, let's leave Xiangyang tomorrow and rush to the north to help!"

I'm sorry!

She, Lin Qian, is just a little woman!

The righteousness of the family and the country or something, that's something that men should consider!

Compared with the suffering of thousands of Li people, Lin Qian still cares more about whether her daughter will be wronged.

And Li Mochou?

Li Mochou listened to his master's words, but the expression on his face became more complicated.

She, really didn't go to Lan Li for help?

......

......

The scene that happened in the Miaoyu Pavilion was naturally impossible for others to know.

Night.

sub-hours.

Branches on the moon.

At the beginning of the wall of the Lan family's mansion gate, a black shadow turned in.

The footsteps are quiet.

did not alarm the Lan family to hide in the shadows.

It can be seen that the people who come are very familiar with the layout of the Blue Mansion.

That's it.

After crossing the three gates, the black shadow came to the backyard of the Blue Mansion.

At this point, there were two paths in front of her.

One is the courtyard where the owner of the Lan family lives.

The other .....

"Who is it?"

The black shadow was still stunned, and suddenly, a familiar indifferent voice sounded from behind him.

Discovered?

Li Mochou, who was dressed in a black robe, stiffened.

Wait for her to turn away.

Under the moonlight, the figure of Qingjian in green clothes holding a double fire gun appeared in front of Li Mochou like this.

"Green, it's me...."

In the dark night, Li Mochou's voice was very dry.

"Huh? Don't worry? ”

Seeing Li Mochou's face, under the arm of the green cloth holding the fire gun, a smile squeezed out of his face:

"I'm back, I'm back, why don't you go through the front door?"

After more than a year of getting along, there is still some friendship between Luyi and Li Mochou.

Seeing that it was her, Green Yi also let down her guard.

"I...."

What should Li Mochou say?

Tell Green Yi about wanting to 'borrow food' from Lan Li?

As far as she knew, the character of the green clothes.

I'm afraid I'll choose to refuse at the first time, right?

I thought to myself.

Li Mochou hesitated for a few seconds, but still said dryly:

"Green Yi, I'm going to leave with Master tomorrow, and I'll come back this time..... Just wanted to come back and see you.... And him...."

In the end, Li Mochou still couldn't speak.

Who would have thought, the green clothes opposite her, after hearing the words, showed a little curiosity:

"100,000 stone of grain, you got it together so quickly?"

Li Mochou: "??? ”

I haven't said yet, how do you know?

"This afternoon, when the next person came back to report, I was still worried about Mo Chou and wanted to ask someone to help you raise some...."

Speaking of this, the green clothes smiled at Li Mochou slightly apologetically:

"You also know that Green Yi is just a maid and doesn't have much ability.

In one afternoon, I only scraped together 80,000 stones......."

Li Mochou was dumbfounded!

What do you mean that you only have enough 80,000 stones in one afternoon?

It's scary already, okay???

The three of them, master and apprentice, as well as the slip given by Yue Yun, worked hard all afternoon before they would 'borrow' twenty stone of military rations.

It's not so much that they are borrowing, but that those people can't stand the disturbance of their masters and apprentices, and they are specially used to send them away.

It's like sending a beggar.....

The result is up to you.

Eighty thousand stones were transferred in one afternoon, and they all need to feel ashamed?

What the hell is wrong with this world!

Looking at the smiling expression on the green face in front of him....

For the first time, Li Mochou knew how much energy this girl in green had in Xiangyang City.

Even if it were replaced by Yue Yun, a general, to do this, it would not be as efficient as Green Yi, right?

80,000 stone of grain, is this really what a girl like Green Yi can do?

Li Mochou was very confused in his heart.

Faced with the green clothes, she didn't know what to say.

And the green clothes didn't seem to notice her embarrassment.

As always.

Walked up to her with light steps, took one of her hands, and stuffed a jade pendant marked with the word 'blue' on it.

"Mo Chou, 80,000 stone of grain, I have already asked the Lan family's caravan to transport it to the ship.

Twenty miles down the river, you can see cargo ships.

When you hold the jade pendant, go to the boat to find a person named Ruan Xiaoer, and he will naturally help you transport the goods to where you should go. ”

Saying this, Green Yi blinked.

leaned into Li Mochou's ear and whispered:

"If you're done, don't forget to come back and see me.

Over here..... It's your home..... too."

......

......

Li Mochou fled as if he had fled.

When I left, my face was a little red, red to the base of my ears.

I don't know how she was teased like this by such a little girl in green clothes.

It's green.

After Li Mochou walked well, he put away the expression on his face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Turned around and walked into the courtyard of Lan Li.

Inside the courtyard.

Lan Li was sitting under the ancient tree with Zixuan.

Seeing that the green clothes came in, he just asked in a flat voice:

"Miss Li has been here?"

"If you go back to Gongzi, the slave maid has already asked her to look for Second Brother Ruan."

"Hmm...."

As he spoke, Lan Li fell behind.

Who would have thought that as soon as his chess pieces fell, he was exchanged for a big white eye from Zixuan on the opposite side.

"Since you want to help others, you can help them in one step, why are you sneaking around, and using the name of green clothes?"

"Uh..... You don't understand ......"
