Chapter 1513: Female Venerable 17

After hiding and hiding and escaping on foot for a few days, Fang Jingyao and Fang Miaozhen, who couldn't endure the hardships and couldn't stand the sin, could no longer endure this hard life.

As soon as these two people combined, they actually bought Liu Xi, a person who was already a little older, but still had a good appearance, into the Qinglou.

Not to mention, with the beauty and style of Liuxi, they also sold a lot of silver seriously, Fang Jingyao and Fang Miaozhen relied on buying their own Zhengjun's father's silver, bought two donkeys and continued to run to the border.

One is the wife who once married himself at the expense of killing his original partner, and the other is his own daughter, but he actually sent himself into the fire pit together!

Liu Xi never thought that he would be treated like this, if Fang Jingyao was so kind to Liu Xi, it was not a surprise to him Liu Xi, after so many years of getting along, he had already seen through what kind of person Fang Jingyao was, that was something he couldn't rely on.

But his daughter, who he treats wholeheartedly, also treats him like this, which is the root cause of Liu Xi's despair, he couldn't stand this blow on the day he was sent to the Qinglou, and the whole person was a little crazy.

It's a pity that he doesn't have the courage to seek death even if he is in pain, and Liu Xi, who was once crazy, also thought about hitting his head to death to seek relief, but at the last moment, he was timid and relaxed his strength.

As a result, he failed to commit suicide, but angered the bustard, and was cleaned up very miserably by the unique ruthless methods of Qinglou, if it weren't for the beauty of Liu Xi, the bustard might have killed him.

In the end, Liu Xi couldn't stand the torture or gave in, he enjoyed a good life for half his life, but he was abandoned by his wife and daughter, and ended up in the Qinglou.

Originally, Fang Miaoqing was still thinking about how to deal with Liu Xi, she couldn't do anything to her mother, but she wouldn't be merciful to Liu Xi.

However, after learning about Liu Xi's life in the Qinglou, Fang Miaoqing thought about it and gave up what to continue to do, just let people stare at it, and never allow Liu Xi to be ransomed, and then stopped paying attention to Liu Xi.

Fang Miaoqing now is more important to start her own business, fortunately she has a good grandmother who helps her everywhere, and it doesn't have to be so difficult to really start from scratch.

As for Liu Xi, just like what Fang Miaoqing said to Qi Guan Shuangshuang before, who said that death is the best punishment, sometimes, living without hope is more terrible than dying.

On the other side, after knowing the fate of Fang Jingyao and Fang Miaozhen, Qi Guan Shuangshuang also stopped paying attention to these two people, the Fang family was bankrupt by her in her previous life and this life, and it was enough to take revenge twice.

Qi Guan Shuangshuang has been buying a large amount of grain recently, and she is not doing this to make money, but to prepare for the famine in the future.

Qi Guan Shuangshuang remembered that in another three months, the two provinces around Yuncheng suffered a severe drought at the same time, and countless farmers fell into a desperate situation of no harvest.

At this time in his previous life, Qi Guan Shuangshuang was still a gentleman, and he had just lost his father and mother not long ago, and he didn't have the heart to think about anything else, so he just spent money to donate a porridge shop.

And in this life, the officials who have known about this for a long time want to do their best to do something for these affected people.

I still remember that after the great drought in my last life, the people had no food, and life was very difficult at the beginning, because the previous year was also a drought.

Although there is no drought and no harvest, it is barely enough to maintain food and clothing, and many places need the government to open warehouses for disaster relief to survive.

Even so, a small drought and this year's seed money have depleted most of the people's savings.

After this year's drought, although the imperial court reduced taxes, the food needed to be transferred from further afield.

Because of the drought of the previous year, the surrounding treasury had already run out of food, and the successive droughts had not yet stored new grain.

In such a situation, the government has no choice, the people can only spend money to sell grain, but the grain merchants take the opportunity to keep raising the price of grain, the people do not have enough money in their hands, and in the end they can only sell their sons and daughters.

By the time the relief grain from the imperial court arrived late, the people had been forced to the point where they had no money to sell grain and could eat their children!

After this drought, there are nursery rhymes sung on the streets: "When the drought came a year ago, the price of grain changed day by day, and the people poured their property and could not get a full stomach. ”

Although it is not true that every family gives up human nature so much and eats the child, so that they don't hear the cry of their children, but this nursery rhyme that came out of nowhere does directly speak of the most tragic human nature under the drought.

Qi Guan Shuang is not a saint, thinking of sacrificing herself for others and bankrupting her family to help these victims, she is not so conscious.

But she can still do and is willing to do it by storing grain at a low price in advance, and when the famine occurs, she can still do it and is willing to do it if she uses these grains to balance the price of grain without making money profitable, and don't let the people be so miserable that she eats it.

And if these things are done well, it will only lose some labor and time, although the amount of money spent on doing these things is not too small, but these losses can still be afforded.

Qi Guan Shuangshuang asked people to go to several major grain-producing provinces to buy grain, and then transport it back to several drought-stricken towns around Yuncheng, just waiting for the drought to arrive.

It's a bit eye-catching for Qi Guan to do this, but she doesn't have to worry about being said to be a demon by someone who cares, and she can actually find a famine or something in advance.

Because Qin Tianjian had already sent people here to check, and several times he showed the emperor that there was a possibility of drought here, so that the emperor could prevent it in advance.

I have to say that the Qin Tianjian of this world is really capable, he is proficient in all the celestial phenomena and geology, and everything he says is justified and well-founded, and he is not the kind of ignorant person who is covered in clouds and mountains and fog, and what kind of feudal superstition he is engaged in.

But it's a pity that the emperor of this dynasty is a lascivious king who slacks the government, and he only likes to hold her three thousand beautiful men in the harem all day long.

And in power in the court are a few ministers who like to slap horses, plus a very favored, bold enough to collude with courtiers, and can blow the pillow wind in the emperor's ears, and none of these people are concerned about the people.

Qin Tianjian said that there would be a great drought, but the emperor didn't take it seriously at all, and Qin Tianjian reported it several times, and the emperor thought that she was worrying about the sky.

In addition, Lin Guijun, who was favored by the emperor's side, did not like the official history of Qin Tianjian and said several slanderous rumors to the emperor, but the emperor listened to it, and then even put Qin Tianjian Zhengshi into the prison, saying that she was alarmist and disturbed the court.

It was several other loyal ministers who knew the ability of Qin Tianjian and interceded with her, so that they could be regarded as saving Qin Tianjian Zhengshi, and then several old ministers insisted that the emperor deal with the great drought calculated by Qin Tianjian.
