Chapter 171: What is the Use of the Book of Sages?

It is not uncommon to mix sand with rice, and there are countless rice sellers who have done such repugnant things.

But today, on the Yellow Crane Tower, a group of scholars and Confucian scholars talked about the method of disaster relief with the ambition of self-cultivation and Qi family leveling the world, and even proposed such a trick to mix sand into the disaster relief grain.

Originally, such a method was done by small merchants and hawkers, and even ordinary large merchants, so it was done, and everyone had to reprimand it, and some people even wanted to make some poems to scold them.

However, this comes from the mouth of a scholar.

Originally, this was nothing, and everyone could still reprimand it, but it was even praised by the world's first-class masters, and the world's Qincha adults.

What the hell is going on here?!

yes, what the hell is going on?

Could it be that the world has been reversed?

It is enough for a high-spirited literati to say such a method, and the result is praised by the giants of the world?

People's hearts are not ancient?

Many people are blinded, and many scholars don't know how to talk about it.

But......

"Brother Mu, don't panic first, this official is here to praise you, definitely not because we know each other, but your method is indeed a method that can be done, at least in that case, the flood is rampant, the people have no food, and the disaster relief food is not enough, we have no other choice, but temporary, let everyone eat some bad food. Small stones, which generally can't eat the dead, can at least last for some time.

As for other methods, it's not impossible, but at least this sand mixing is a trick. ”

Tang Xianglong came out and said this, which really solved everyone's confusion, but this statement ......

"Xianglong Gong, how can this be!?" That Sun Weixian was unhappy, very unhappy, "This is a method of fraud, if it is someone else, it will be forgotten, but if we are officials, it will represent the heavenly family, how can we expire the people like this?" Maybe it looks like there is more food after mixing it with sand, but who can really eat sand in their stomachs? ”

There was also some truth in what he said, but Tang Xianglong didn't distinguish it, so he just continued to ask Mu Xiaohan and said, "Brother Mu, how did you come up with this method?" ”

Mu Xiaohan's face changed slightly, he was a little hesitant before, but now, he is much more determined, "I had this experience when I was a child, and it was like this at the time, but I didn't know much about it at that time, but then I walked more and saw more, it seems to be ...... There is no such thing as a good way, naturally, I also want to kill all the corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but then I think about it, who doesn't want to do this? But who can kill it all? ”

As soon as these words came out, he was quite helpless, but in this sentence, there was a kind of thing that Tang Xianglong wanted most, "Very good!" Very good! Today's poetry meeting, Brother Mu can be rated! ”

That's it?!

"Huh!?"

"This, this is ......"

"It's ......"

Most of the students still can't accept it, but some people are still very smart.

Someone came out and said: "Actually, it's nothing for the people to eat some stones, Yu Zeng heard that when there is a disaster, there are even people who eat Guanyin soil, everyone may not know, although the Guanyin soil can satisfy hunger, but if you eat it, you will die, especially many people will die." The sand is at least stronger, but there is also a way to do it, and that is to ...... These rice grains mixed with sand are forcibly sold to local rice merchants, and they are simply asked to do this business. ”

As soon as these words came out, many people scolded, how could they do this?

Tang Xianglong smiled again: "Who is this old brother's surname?" ”

"In the Lower Fujian East Wu Qian." The man had a smile on his face at this point.

"Good! Yes, well, this is for one law. "Then Tang Xianglong actually praised it again.

This time, it really made all the scholars unable to sit still, how could this be?

You know, this method is simply stupid, then disaster relief rice grain, since it is disaster relief, it means that there is no food in the local area, but how can it be sold to rice merchants?

Who doesn't know how to hoard at this time?

Who would be that stupid?

And, even if it's mixed with sand?

Anyway, no one will figure it out for a while......

"So, why do you want to do that?" Wu Bucheng also didn't understand, he was originally just a monk, Donglin Temple is in the deep mountains, and he doesn't worry about any food, there are small flowers grinding tofu in the temple, everything is enough.

To say, his small life back then was still good, and he didn't encounter such a natural disaster, so he naturally didn't know how to deal with it.

And it was Zhao Mengyao who asked, can she understand?

"You're stupid sometimes, so I'll tell you a little bit, this topic is the real thing at the moment, right?" Zhao Mengyao laughed quietly.

"Yes." Wu Bucheng nodded.

Zhao Mengyao continued to laugh and said: "Since it is a true thing, then it is naturally a real thing, then, in the title, there are places to bluff people, for example, it means that there is disaster relief food to Tongnan, but is there really not a grain of rice in Tongnan?" ”

"Oh?" As soon as Wu Bucheng heard it, he understood more or less.

That's right, how can there not be a grain of rice in one place?

Zhao Mengyao continued: "To put it bluntly, there must still be rice, but the local rice merchants must be hoarding such things first, this is the nature of businessmen, and there is no need to say anything." However, when the relief food arrives, then mixing sand into the relief grain is really not good, but it also increases the amount of relief food, so what will these rice merchants do?

A simple thought makes it clear that the rice merchant will definitely sell it, but what about the grain that was originally hoarded?

The price of grain mixed with sand must be low, and the price of hoarded grain is originally high, so it seems that it is not a big deal to sell it like this, but if you really do this, then the price of rice will definitely fall, and this is not to alleviate the disaster?

And Tang Xianglong also said before, why is there only half of the disaster relief food?

There are officials who exploit it, so well, these stripped rice grains will actually go to the rice shops in Tongnan later, and they will still be taken out and sold.

Of course, the price will definitely be more expensive than before the disaster, but at least it can solve the temporary needs of many people. ”

These things sound simply unbelievable, or they should stand up and scold, those businessmen and officials are bastards.

That's right! That's right!

But how can you fight them?

You know, in the end, isn't it to let the people survive this catastrophe?

If you want to settle the score, you can leave it for later.

So......

"Brother Wu can also be rated!" Tang Xianglong immediately gave a comment.

This time, the hearts of the students are tumbling, like a frying pot!

Why do the books of the sages that I have read all year round seem useless at this time?

You know, the current topic is the way to be an official, the real practical way, but ...... Ay~

Many scholars don't know what to do.

But this time......

"Then we ......" Wu Bucheng really didn't understand what Zhao Mengyao had arranged, "Are we going to answer the question?" ”

"Hey, hey......" Zhao Mengyao smiled like a little fox, but at this time, there was a mask to cover it, this ......

Many scholars consciously stayed away from these two people to show their innocence, and we definitely don't have the habit of breaking sleeves, or the good of Longyang.

These changes were too detailed, Wu Bucheng didn't notice them, but Zhao Mengyao nodded his shoulder, and then beckoned him to look at the appearance of the Yellow Crane Tower.

What can you see?

But seeing the river and thousands of sails racing, it is indeed magnificent, but you can look at it......

"Huh? What's going on with that! ”

Wu Bucheng couldn't help but point to the distance.

What's wrong?

Many people were affected, and hurriedly came to take a look, but saw that on the big river, there were so many dozen boats, which seemed to be inexplicably concentrating together, and it didn't take long......

They even bumped into each other!

You know, here is far away from the river, you can't hear anything, but you can see clearly, the yellow crane tower is extremely high, and the eyes are unobstructed.

But that's not all, soon a lot of ships will pass, and this ......

"Wow! It's on fire! ”

"What's going on?"

"Then there was a fire on the river?!"

It turned out that those boats actually caught fire on the river, and now ......,

"Ladies and gentlemen! Although today is a poetry meeting, how can I and other scholars not save me?! ”

"That's right, it's time to help!"

"I was discussing the matter of Tongnan just now, and now there is a big event in the river, how can we turn a blind eye!"

Unexpectedly, these scholars became lively, showing their arms and sleeves, and wanted to help.

What about this......

"Hehehe......" Zhao Mengyao's smile is really enough for a chicken thief.
