Yin Li went home and saw three people wandering in front of the courtyard.

He carefully identified it, and it was actually the Great Si Nong Noricheng and the two guards.

Yin Li was overjoyed, and raised his hand from afar and shouted: "Uncle Dian!"

Dian Cheng couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Hahahaha, it's Yin Li." ”

Yin Li approached: "Uncle Dian, why did you come to the imperial capital?"

Dian Cheng said: "Grandpa Guo sent me to the imperial capital to do some errands. ”

Yin Li said: "The courtyard door is open, why don't you enter the house?"

Dian Cheng said: "After you and Xingyue were admitted to the Guozijian, it was the first time I came, I only know that you live in this area, and I can't tell you if it's that mansion." No, I knocked on a few doors, and I just walked here. ”

"That's where I live. Let's go, please come in. Yin Li opened his hand to the door, then turned his head and swept around, and said softly: "Uncle Dian, why haven't you seen your mount?

Diancheng sighed: "Hey, let's talk about it when we enter the house." ”

The four of them entered the door and walked through the corridor to the East Wing Courtyard.

Steward Qin was extremely happy when he saw the sudden arrival of Diancheng. He stepped forward to salute, beckoned Dian Cheng and the two guards to sit down in the courtyard, let people serve tea and snacks, and sent people to the street to buy wine and vegetables. Dian Cheng shouted: "No, no, no, you don't need to buy wine and vegetables, if there are any leftovers at home, give us some leftovers." ”

Steward Qin said, "Leftovers and leftovers......?" ”

Dian Cheng said: "I don't forget it, I'll eat it at night." ”

Steward Qin said: "There are some leftovers and leftovers, but they are just ......." Si Nong, will you eat some?"

Yin Li also said: "Yes, Uncle Dian eats and drinks well at home, why is he restrained when he arrives in the imperial capital?"

Dian Cheng shook his head and sighed: "Hey, this time is different from the past. The fall of the Wei State, the grace of the Son of Heaven and the Queen Mother, and the knighthood and land, were originally a good thing. Hey, it's a pity that in this battle of the fall of the Wei State, everything of value was plundered by their Eight-Nation Alliance, and what we received was a mess at all. In the past few months, the Wei people have returned to their hometowns one after another, and the hungry people are all over the wilderness and the land is full of hunger. As the saying goes, the country is people-oriented, and if the Wei people are willing to return to their hometowns, then they are all our people, and we can't watch them starve to death. Therefore, Grandpa Guo ordered that the treasury money and wealth be embezzled to help the victims, and we and other Yin people should also reduce food and clothing and tide over the difficulties with the Wei people. ”

This news was indeed quite shocking, and Yin Li had never thought about it in this regard.

Hungry people are all over the wilderness, and if this matter is not handled properly, it may be in danger of overthrowing the country.

He asked: "I didn't expect the matter to be so serious, what is the situation in China now?"

Dian Chengdao: "There are millions of Wei people, most of them are disaster victims, and we didn't last long after we took out our family funds." Fortunately, some time ago, the Empress Dowager arrived, and I went to take over the Hexi Corridor, and transferred 2,000 truckloads of grain and grass from the surrounding counties, which barely supported me until now. Now that the autumn harvest season has arrived, some people have harvested, and the disaster has eased slightly, but there are still more than 200,000 people who have not harvested. Seeing that winter is about to begin, these victims are afraid that they will freeze to death without food or clothing. Therefore, I came this time to borrow a sum of money from the money bank in the imperial capital to buy clothes and food and transport it back to China. ”

Yin people are not rich in the first place, and they have borrowed money to get by, and the tragic situation in the country can be imagined.

Spring ploughing and autumn harvest, the victims miss this year's harvest, which is equivalent to another year of relief.

Everyone sighed secretly, sighed and sighed, and hung their heads one by one.

Yin Li said: "With so many victims, how much does it cost?"

Dian Chengdao: "Eating soup and drinking thin, I'm afraid it will cost two million gold to be enough." ”

"Ha!" At this time, Guang Han, who had been standing next to the courtyard and listening to people, suddenly opened his mouth and snorted coldly. She said, "Two million gold, that's an astronomical amount." The money village in the imperial capital is very philistine, they have always looked down on the Yin people, you ask them to borrow money, I think it is very difficult. ”

Dian Cheng looked at Guang Han and felt that she was extraordinary, and couldn't help but be surprised.

Stunned for a moment, he led Guanghan and asked Yin Li: "Who is this?"

Yin Li introduced and said, "Oh, she's her, she's Guanghan." ”

Dian Cheng turned from surprise to joy: "She is the female official of Guanghan!" The letter sent back by the Qin housekeeper said that Guanghan was degraded, and now he is with you...... That, that, whatever. Guanghan female officer, I'm sorry, the old man has lost his words, don't be surprised. ”

Guang Han said lightly: "It doesn't matter, I was demoted to a slave and followed Yin Li, it seems that everyone in the world knows about it, am I still afraid of what people say." Lord Si Nong, you have come to the imperial capital to be considered the right one, you don't have to go to the money bank to borrow money, Sister Xingyue just has four million gold on hand, and when she comes back in a while, you can ask her, and she will give it to you. ”

Yin Li, Dian Cheng, and Steward Qin shouted in unison: "What, four million gold!"

Steward Qin said, "Does Miss have so much money, why don't I know?"

Yin Li also said: "Yes, I don't know, you know?"

Guang Han walked to the stone bench and sat down: "Of course you don't know. Last time I was in the Garman Empire, the form was too tense, and Sister Xingyue didn't say anything. When she got home, she told me, she said that the shopkeeper gambled with the owner in the host courtyard and won four million, and the shopkeeper gave her the money, saying that it was a dividend for your father. Your father is actually the fifth treasurer of the Imperial Tower, do you understand?"

Yin Li, Dian Cheng, Steward Qin, and the two guards were all stunned.

Yin Li swallowed dryly: "My father is the fifth shopkeeper of the Imperial Tower?"

Dian Cheng wiped his forehead sweat: "All these years, we don't know?"

Guang Han said: "The princes of all countries are not allowed to do business in the imperial capital, this is the rule, of course he doesn't dare to let people know." Si Nong, there are many people in the disaster, disaster relief alone will not work, after a long time, the disaster victims are easy to breed inertia, anyway, there is food and drink, simply do nothing, this is not the blessing of the country. According to Guanghan's humble opinion, at the beginning of your country's territorial expansion, national defense was weak and all industries were waiting to be developed, and the disaster victims were just used to strengthen national defense and prosper agriculture and commerce. ”

Dian Cheng suddenly realized: "You mean conscription?"

Guang Han nodded: "That's right, Sister Xingyue's four million gold is just used as capital. The young and strong victims became soldiers, and they could guard the border and receive military pay to survive. Victims of the disaster, young and old, who did not want to serve in the army, were allowed to work on their own, planting medicinal herbs, building and working together, weaving clothes and armor, raising livestock, etc., which were uniformly allocated and paid by the state. In less than a year, your country will be able to get out of this predicament. At that time, we will open up one by one, let the people develop freely, and rule by doing nothing, so that the country will become rich and the people strong. ”

Dian Cheng clapped his hands and applauded: "This is wonderful! I can't imagine that the female official is a master of governing the country." ”

Guang Han stared at his eyes, as if he was thinking about something: "I also learned from the Queen Mother." ”

Dian Cheng smiled and said: "Yin Li, why don't you ask the female official to go back to China with me, what do you see?"

Yin Li smiled bitterly: "Not for the time being, if she gets involved in government affairs, the Queen Mother will definitely be furious." ”

Dian Cheng was slightly disappointed: "That's the case, then it's better for her to stay in the imperial capital." ”

After a while, Aunt Liu brought out the leftovers, and Diancheng and the two guards ate to their heart's content. Then a group of people went out to the outer city, and Dian Cheng wanted to see the grain stores and clothing stores in the imperial capital first, so that he could purchase a large number of them tomorrow.
