Not to mention how Zheng Erxiang was anxious to discuss his son's marriage with his mother-in-law.

At the same time, in the Li Mansion of Anxian County, Li Hongbin and his friend Jin Chengji, who had just returned to the city yesterday, were sitting on both sides of the desks, their faces were a little heavy.

"Brother Xian, what you just said is true?" After a long pause, Li Hongbin, who was frowning, couldn't help lowering his voice and questioning.

"Brother Li, how could Jin hide this kind of thing from you?" Seeing Li Hongbin's questioning, Jin Chengji didn't care, sighed, put down the teacup in his hand and continued, "Actually, it's no wonder that Brother Li is suspicious, who would have thought that the palace newspaper issued by the imperial court would be so biased?" If I hadn't gone to inspect Zhuangzi in the northern eight states this time, what I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears, I wouldn't have believed that the situation would have been so bad.

Take my Jinfu as an example, the original annual harvest of Zhuangzi was about 50,000 stones, but this year's harvest is only three to fifty percent of previous years, especially in Qizhou and Xiuzhou, it can be said that there is no harvest of grains, and the farmers along the way are even more empty, and too many people have gone out to flee. ”

"Is it that serious?" Hearing this, Li Hongbin also put away his doubts, and then changed his words, "What about Dajin?" What are they doing? ”

"As far as I know, Daikin is the same as others, and this drought has also suffered heavy losses," Kim Seung-ki paused at this point, "but there are also rumors among the people that the grasslands in the north of Daikin have abundant rain, which has not had much impact." ”

"Hiss", Li Hongbin gasped, "In this way, one side will lose the other, and this year's Great Summer will be in danger." ”

"I can't say that", Jin Chengji shook his head after hearing this, "Jin is a businessman, and the news he got is just word of mouth, and the truth is not yet known, and the imperial court has been expanding grain and grass reserves in recent years, if Dajin really ignores the feelings of the two countries and attacks on a large scale, the victory or defeat may not be as worried about by the eldest brother." ”

Having said that, Li Hongbin, who has been in the court for many years, is not optimistic, Jin is strong and Xia is weak, if he is a Jin man, he will definitely not let go of this God-given opportunity.

However, in front of Jin Chengji, he thought so in his heart, but his face did not show anything, Li Hongbin lowered his eyes, and only after a while did he speak: "What the virtuous brother said is also reasonable, the two countries have been friends for many years and are familiar with each other, even if there is a war, the victory or defeat is five or five, and it is not something we can put our beaks in." ”

The old god Kim Seung-gi was sitting on the chair, but he didn't say a word.

Li Hongbin also knew that what he said was just self-deception, his face was slightly stiff, and he gradually changed the topic again, "Is it true that the virtuous brother has ever been about the locust plague?" ”

In this regard, Jin Chengji hooked the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "This is not true, Jin Mou just listened to the occasional talk of a few Zhuangzi stewards under his name, but after the catastrophe, there was indeed a locust plague, and the younger brother was terrified, and he went back to visit several adults who had been in charge of agricultural affairs, and they either scoffed at it or said nothing, and did not give Jin a clear conclusion." ”

"So, it doesn't have to be?" After listening to it for so long, he finally heard a good news, and Li Hongbin couldn't help but show a smile.

"That's right", Jin Chengji took a sip of tea, "But the Jin family and the Li family are in different circumstances, none of those rabbit cubs are angry, but I, the old man, have to worry about them for a few more years, and be careful to sail the boat for ten thousand years." ”

"You, you....." Li Hongbin pointed at Jin Chengji, his eyes narrowed, but he didn't say more.

Jin Chengji also smiled, and he didn't hold on, but talked about the interesting things that happened during his trip in the past two months.

Time passed quickly, and the two were chatting happily, and when it was time for lunch, they still kept talking.

At this time, the housekeeper had to go into the study and reminded: "Master, are you still cooking in the middle of the building?" ”

"Hmm", Li Hongbin responded, then stood up and smiled at Jin Chengji, "I will wash the dust for you today, and I will make all the shrimp and crabs you like to eat, so as to ensure that you have a great meal." ”

"And such a good thing, then I need to eat enough."

After going out for two months, the smell of birds was about to fade out of his mouth, and when he heard this, Jin Chengji was overjoyed and stood up.

"Don't you know, the master has been calling since he received the post, and when he heard that Jin Ye was coming over today, he specially ordered the kitchen to prepare it, all of which you love to eat, and they are all fresh, all of them are so big, fat", said, the housekeeper with a smile on his face also measured it with his hand in front of Jin Chengji, and did not forget to invite credit to his master.

"Is it really that big?" Kim Seungji's eyes lit up and he was surprised.

"That's not it, Jin Ye, don't you know, now the most in our Anxian market are fish, shrimp and crabs, not only big but also fresh", Jin Chengji often comes to the Li Mansion, and the housekeeper is also very familiar with him, and he squeezes his eyebrows while talking.

"Quack!"

Looking at the ugly appearance of the interaction between the two, Li Hongbin reprimanded with a calm face, turned around and walked out of the study.

"Hey, what do you mean?" Jin Chengji was not happy, so he raised his foot and followed, "You don't know that I like to eat seafood since I was a child, and I am not allowed to ask if I finally come across it, but there is no seafood at this time in previous years, what is going on this year?" ”

"Just go back and ask your sons......

"You all know it, so hide it from me!"

On the path leading to the side building, Kim Seung-ki's shouting was heard again.

.........

Anxian County North Land Temple.

"Are you saying that Zhuangzi no longer puts grain out?" Li Tianbao lay crookedly in a pile of straw, squinting at his subordinates in front of him.

This person is known as Ma Liu, he is a newcomer who has just been recruited by Li Tianbao, in his thirties, with a thin face and a hooked nose, and the ragged clothes he is wearing at this time are swishing, and the vest that cannot be seen clearly is densely covered with patches of various colors.

"Yes, not only did those people not release food, but they also sent several guards to patrol the surrounding area to drive us away." After that, Ma Liu also wiped his nose with his sleeve and made an expression of righteous indignation.

it! How can I live without food!?

Li Erbao didn't care if his subordinates were full, but frowned slightly and asked, "Did the female owner come forward?" ”

Ma Liu's head shook like a rattle, "No, I didn't come out today, but the person in charge came out and went back." ”

Li Erbao sighed, secretly regretting it.

One of last night's best chances was wasted by him.

However, I can't blame him, it's the employer who didn't make it clear.

Who can sum up that a delicate and weak woman will actually have kung fu, and she is so ruthless, the three gentlemen are simply pumped out of human appearance, after being shocked, it is too late to dispatch manpower!

What should I do now? Take a look at the latest chapter of "The Ancient Life of the Last Woman" and read it for free for the first time.
