Chapter 147: New Business Opportunities
Seeing that tens of thousands of victims were surrounded by the famine caused by the snowstorm, the gates of the capital were blocked.
The victims of the disaster, who were yellow and thin-skinned, were displaced like beggars, crying bitterly and praying to the impregnable and indifferent city walls, or desperately, spitting and scolding, Mu Yihan's mood was gloomy and gloomy, and he couldn't help but have doubts.
He was very clear about the grain savings in the capital.
Even if there has been a continuous famine in the past two years, and the capital can store millions of stones, the problem of famine in the provinces around the capital should not be so serious.
And these displaced people, although they are not residents near the capital, are also pouring in from the surrounding provinces, and there is a trend of increasing.
Mu Yihan knew that if this situation lasted for a long time, there might even be a rebellion among the displaced people, and when the time came, the imperial court would inevitably send soldiers to suppress the rebellion. In the midst of the smoke of gunfire, the people are even more miserable.
But in order to ensure the safety of Ye Yun'er and the others, Mu Yihan planned to go inside first, settle them down, and then deal with this matter.
They finally took advantage of Mu Yihan's famous brand and squeezed into the city.
In the city, it is a prosperous and peaceful scene, which is very different from the fierce wind and rain outside.
In order to find out the facts, Mu Yihan was not in a hurry to go back to the Prince's Mansion in the center of the city, so he simply settled Ye Yun'er and his party in an inn not far from the city gate, and he also lived here temporarily.
After several days of observation, everyone realized that the city was far from being as gentle and drizzly as they imagined, but under the calm waves, there was an undercurrent hidden, which could sweep in at any time, swallowing away the surface tranquility and revealing a bloody scene.
After investigation by Ling Feng and others, it was learned that because of the heavy snowstorm, a group of displaced people had poured in the capital.
Because they were indignant at the inaction of the imperial court, they often caused chaos in the capital.
The leader is a very cunning opponent, often out of nowhere, leaving no trace in the chaos, and hiding very deeply, so that so many royal forest troops in the capital have no way to take them.
And the emperor just let it go, and did not send more manpower, but just let those mediocre sporadic royal forest troops, as well as the yamen of the government office, settle these "insignificant cloth clothes, roosters and dogs and thieves of the street rats".
Because of this, many people in the capital are also complaining, and they are disturbed and worried by that group of bandits.
Mu Yihan continued to let people investigate deeply, just wanting to see how things developed before making a conclusion.
On the other hand, he also asked people to investigate disaster relief matters.
When he learned that the emperor had given this task to the crown prince Mu Zichen, he couldn't help but snort coldly from his nose.
He is very familiar with Mu Zichen, and knows that he has the authority to control this presidential affairs, and with his insatiable nature, it is strange that he does not take the opportunity to make a lot of benefits in it.
Sure enough, the investigation results brought back by Ling Feng also verified this.
Thinking of Mu Zichen taking advantage of the convenience of being in charge of disaster relief affairs, he did not hesitate to pretend to help his own private interests and fill his pockets, and Mu Yi's anger gradually grew.
But it was inconvenient for him to directly take these evidences to the emperor to refer to him, because he knew that just because Mu Zichen was born to the queen, the emperor had always favored this unlearned crown prince.
There have been countless times when the emperor has unconditionally forgiven his crimes, which has led to his intensification and daring to recklessly commit this heinous and heinous crime under the emperor's nose.
Even if he participated, he would be reprimanded by the emperor for being a brother, and even accused Mu Yihan of vainly trying to make the royal family lose face, and he wanted to make the prince fall off the horse, while he Mu Yihan wanted to replace him......
In this way, not only will you fail to achieve your goal, but you may also be charged with trumped-up charges and fall into a dangerous situation from which you cannot get out. So, why should he be bored and come out of this?
Ye Yun'er didn't know what Mu Yihan was thinking, she just studied the way of business with her heart.
She knew that this was the capital, unlike any other place in the past, and she only hoped that Mu Yihan could urge the imperial court to solve the problem smoothly.
But in this prosperous capital, she found a lot of business opportunities, and she couldn't help but want to rub her hands and pick up her old business.
There is no land in the capital, so all her vegetable seeds cannot be cultivated and matured, and she can only use ready-made fruits to make something.
She suddenly remembered that when she was in Houshan Village, she had planted a lot of beans, and when these beans were ripe, she was too busy with business to deal with them, so she kept them in the game backpack until they were brought to the capital.
Thinking that there were no soy products in this era, this was a good opportunity for her to show her skills.
Tofu was her favorite food in her previous life, and it can be made into a variety of dishes, which will make people feast.
In this moment of famine, it can not only make the dignitaries change their taste and add a touch of taste, but also can be used as the staple food of ordinary people outside the city, so that people can avoid hunger and get rid of the predicament of tossing and turning.
Ye Yun'er said to do it, and immediately carried out a bag of beans in her room in the inn.
She thought of the wording and came to Mu Yihan.
When Mu Yihan saw her coming, he withdrew one of the guards and looked at her with a smile, "Yun'er, you've been wandering around a lot lately, aren't you looking for any business opportunities?" ”
Ye Yun'er raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "It seems that you are the roundworm in the little woman's stomach, you can even guess what the little woman is thinking." ”
Regarding Ye Yun'er's total rudeness after seeing Mu Yihan, the guards and servants around Mu Yihan were already surprised. They even felt that Mu Yihan liked Ye Yun'er to treat him so easily and naturally, and he would not be unusually unusual, as respectful and alienated as others after learning that he was the prince.
They didn't expect that Ye Yun'er was born in a modern age with no class concept, so she didn't think much about it after learning that Mu Yihan was the prince.
What's more, accompanied by each other all the way, Ye Yun'er and Mu Yihan have long been sympathetic to each other, and they know everything, but they feel that no matter how big things are, they can't separate their extraordinary intimacy.
"So, let me guess again." Mu Yihan pretended to think hesitantly, and looked at her meaningfully, "Did you come to me so that I could help you fulfill your wish?" ”
Ye Yun'er's eyes widened in surprise, "It seems that even the roundworms in my stomach are less than one-ten-thousandth of yours?" ”
This interesting conversation, even the people next to him couldn't help but laugh when they heard it.
Ye Yun'er simply didn't talk nonsense, and directly expressed her request, hoping that Mu Yihan could help her.
