Don't blame Cheng Zhixu for climbing fast.

Although Cheng Zhixu persuaded the five princes to leave Tianjin Wei with 3,000 stone of grain at first, not to stir up this pool of troubled water, but the five princes finally adopted Cheng Qing's opinion and chose to transport the 30,000 stone disaster relief grain away at one time.

30,000 stones, that is, 4.5 million catties of grain, mobilized the sergeants of the Tianjin Guard, plus the guards of the five princes, it is not difficult to carry. One person can carry one or two hundred catties at a time, more than one trip a day, and it is not difficult to carry 30,000 stone of grain from the granary to the wharf.

Moreover, Tianjin Wei is a place for grain storage, there is no shortage of pallet trucks and livestock for transporting grain, and there are countless hard-working porters on the wharf.

It's easy to move grain to the wharf, how to transport it to Huainan?

Now the boat that takes the canal, the general system is to carry 400 stone per boat.

It is not that the Great Wei Dynasty could not build larger ships, but the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was wide and some narrow, and the boats with a nuclear load of 400 stones were adapted to almost any river.

If the imperial court allocated 400,000 stone relief grain for the five princes to take to Huainan at one time, and a cao boat carried 400 stones, the five princes would need to raise enough 1,000 cao boats to set off.

How can there be so many boats idle?

On the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, except for the winter when it is frozen, the cao boats sail endlessly from south to north, and each cao boat has a task, and thousands of ships are requisitioned at once, which will disrupt the rhythm of this year's grain transportation.

There are three major uses of the grain: the officials' salaries, the army's salaries, and the court's expenses.

No matter which one is not enough, Dawei may be in chaos.

The salaries are in arrears, and the soldiers of the army are going to mutiny.

In arrears, it is even more necessary to force the court officials to be greedy for ink.

As for the expenses of the palace, it is even more unsaved, the nobles in the palace eat high-quality polished rice, which does not go through the canal, and is transported to Beijing by the peasants of the five prefectures of "Su, Song, Chang, Jia, and Hu". But the number of nobles in the palace is a minority, and the real food consumption is tens of thousands of palace people, if these people are hungry, the operation of the entire palace will be paralyzed.

Along the Grand Canal, there are many places like Tongzhou and Tianjin Wei that have granaries, and these granaries are used to store grain.

Between disaster relief in Huainan and ensuring that the entire Great Wei Dynasty would not be in chaos, the emperor would definitely choose the latter.

Cheng Qing felt that the emperor's choice was understandable, the emperor may be more dog in other things, but there is nothing wrong in this matter. The whole world belongs to the emperor, and no one will joke about the stability of the world when he tosses it, and he has to start from the overall situation.

If the Great Wei can't operate normally, what will be used to relieve Huainan?

This year is a great drought in the Huainan region, and next year there may be a flood, and the emperor must think long-term.

The emperor asked the five princes to go to Huainan for disaster relief, and transported 400,000 disaster relief grain in batches, just to wait for the boats to carry grain to the north to be vacated, or to let the granaries near Huainan directly transfer the relief grain.

Cheng Qing suggested taking 30,000 stone of grain from Tianjin Wei at one time, just a boat, Cheng Zhixu had to prepare seventy or eighty ships, not counting the 5,000 stone grain they took from Tongzhou.

Cheng Zhixu is very powerful, he is against taking away 30,000 stone of grain at one time, but he will not deliberately delay the grain handling and the requisition of the boat, which will make Cheng Zhixu incapable-

Cheng Zhixu prepared the ship first, which is more difficult than carrying grain, everything is easy to do with the ship, Cheng Qing and Cui Yan confirmed that the grain in the Dayun warehouse and the Guangbei warehouse was no problem, and Cheng Zhixu immediately took people to carry the grain from the two granaries to the dock.

The 25,000 stone grain rescued from the big surplus warehouse could not be used at all, and it was stained with water during the firefighting, and if it was directly loaded and transported away, the grain would probably sprout when it arrived in Huainan.

It's not that the 25,000 stone wet grain has to be thrown away, and it can still be returned to the warehouse after being sunned.

Cheng Zhixu completed his part very beautifully, but Cheng Qing and Cui Yan took the warehouse of the big warehouse and the Guangbei warehouse were no different, Yu San took a few captains of the brocade guard, and guarded the Tian master affairs without sleep, did not let the Tian master be killed, nor did he let the Tian master commit suicide, and when he heard the results of Cheng Qing and Cui Yan's inventory, he was inevitably disappointed.

"Is there really 60,000 stones?"

"Sixty thousand stones, indeed."

Yu San was disappointed.

Wouldn't he have beaten his own blood in vain?

Hmph, it's too optimistic, Cui Yan, a dead fat man, can't do anything, he will only be cheeky and follow Cheng Qing to rub credit.

Cheng Qing also believes in the surname Cui too much, and he has found nothing in the inventory, what face does he have in front of the five princes?

Yu San refused to face up to Cui Yan's remarkable appearance after losing weight, and often called Cui Yan a "dead fat man" in his heart.

The landlord became more and more confident, ignored Cui Yan and Cheng Qing, and asked the fifth prince to hand him over to the court for questioning.

The granary caught fire, and the landlord committed the crime of dereliction of duty, and 65,000 stone of grain was burned, and the landlord's official position could not be kept, and there were other crimes...... but it did not hinder his life.

Cheng Zhixu did not fall into the ground, but only commanded the sergeant to carry the grain.

The fifth prince was probably not very happy, but he didn't show it, and he was really calm.

Cui Yan waited for Lord Tian to finish the play, and then said coldly: "In the past two days, I would like to thank Lord Tian for his meritorious service and help count the losses of Da Yingcang." According to the Tian chief, Dayingcang burned 65,000 stone of grain in stock, including 50,000 stone of grain and 15,000 stone of rice. ”

The landlord stiffened his neck, "Since this is the case, if you don't believe it, the grain storage division still has account records, just compare them!" ”

Tian is not only not afraid of the inventory, but also not afraid of Cui Yan and Cheng Qing turning over the account books in the company.

When it comes to auditing, Cheng Qing wants to laugh.

I'm afraid that Master Tian thinks that she and Cui Yan are two who have been taught by the Four Books and Five Classics, Cheng Qing's fake accounts can even be deceived by the household department, and Cui Yan's ability to read the account book is also learned from behind Master Cui, and there are not many account books that can deceive her and Cui Yan at the same time.

Tian Zhu killed himself, Cui Yan raised the knife in his hand, and also made his own big move:

"Your Highness, before the minister left Beijing, he looked at the inventory statistics of the granaries in various places in the past, and for fear of forgetting, he also begged Lord Shilang for permission, and specially copied a copy to take with him. Tianjin Wei granary, there are 800,000 stone warehouses of grain, of which 100,000 are warehouse rice, this spring in the west of the bandits, the imperial court from Tianjin Wei allocated grain storage, afraid that the warehouse rice is not resistant to transportation, sent to the west There are 600,000 stone warehouses of grain, only 50,000 warehouses of rice...... The remaining 50,000 warehouses of rice should still be in the Tianjin Wei granary, and the Tian chief said that the Daying warehouse burned 15,000 stone of rice, and the warehouse rice of the Dayun warehouse and Guangbei warehouse should be 35,000 stones. ”

The landlord was a little panicked.

He didn't expect Cui Yan to copy the inventory statistics of the granaries in various places last year from the household department.

Not only that, Cui Yan also remembers how much Shicang grain and how much Shicang rice were sent to the west by Tianjin Wei this year.

Warehouse grain refers to wheat and rice with belt husks, etc.

Kura rice is clean and unshelled rice, which has been milled and does not have rice bran.

The ones sent to the west must be mainly warehouse grain, not only the army must eat, but the military horses can also eat the bran left over from the milled rice!
