The emperor agreed to this, and the next morning he announced in the morning court that Song San and their provinces would be used as a pilot, and if it was not bad, it would be promoted later.

Lord Song went home after the morning dynasty, in addition to conveying the above will to him, he also revealed some of the things he had secretly discussed with the emperor last night, and found the most trustworthy person around him to escort him.

Even his current wife and the four and five sons here don't know about it.

The holy decree came down quickly, just before the autumn harvest, because of the sale of glass, now whether it is the Liang court or the provincial treasury of Song San, there is a lot of silver that can be used to buy grain.

Some of them were allocated from above, a total of more than 100,000 taels, and Song San also took some out of the warehouse, scraped together enough 200,000 taels, and hung up the sign early.

In addition to the five points in the provincial capitals, at least two points have also been set up in each county town, all of which purchase grain at normal prices in previous years.

Originally, everyone was sad about this year's bumper harvest and falling grain prices, but when they suddenly saw the sign hung by the imperial court, everyone became excited.

As a result, the following situations have occurred in various towns and villages.

While the family was harvesting grain in the field, they were worried about the harvest grain.

"Alas! I don't know what this year's food prices will fall again. A few days ago, a grain merchant came to collect grain, and the price was half lower than last year's. Compared with the year before last, it is much less, and I don't know how much our grain can be sold this year. The old man wiped his sweat and sighed worriedly.

His son showed a look of indignation: "Those profiteers know that they have come to oppress us!" Last year, the price of grain outside went up, but the price of grain from us didn't go up. This year is good, they don't see much silver in the grain they sell, but they have pressed the price so hard! ”

"What can we do?" The daughter-in-law frowned, glanced at the clothes worn by the family, especially at her youngest son, and showed a sad look.

"Our family always needs silver, and our family only benefits from this grain. Those grain merchants are all united, and we have no choice, if we don't sell to them, we won't have money.

This big family can't do without money. Look at the clothes with the plugs, you wore them before, and his eldest brother and second brother also wore them, and when he came here, the clothes were almost gone. ”

The family was silent, there was no way, something like this, almost every few years, what could they do but complain. Not all of them have come this way for generations.

I was worried, and suddenly I saw a person running from the official road, with joy on his face.

"I said the Wang family, if you don't help your family, what are you doing in the town again!" The old man looked at the half-grown man running on the official road, and reprimanded him half-jokingly.

Their two families are next to each other, and the parents of the Wang family have always been busy, in addition to the busy fields at home, they also have to go to the town to help people work, so the Wang family children are taken care of by them half of the time, and they can be regarded as half of the family.

"Second master, don't be in a hurry to scold me, I have something important to come back to tell you this time, and it's great news!"

"You kid, what good news can you have."

"Uncle, it's not right for you to say that, I really came with good news this time. You don't know it yet, this year the imperial court is collecting grain. ”

"The imperial court collects grain?" The family was stunned for a moment, and the old man's son asked, "How can the imperial court collect grain and have to fight again?" That's some bullshit good news. ”

"Hey! Uncle, you can't listen to me, your temperament is really more anxious than mine. Isn't the imperial court going to war, didn't you say last time that our Daliang will no longer fight in recent years? ”

"Who can say for sure, anyway, I don't want to fight, once there is a war, it won't be peaceful here. By the way, you just said that the imperial court collects grain, how can this be good news, could it be that their grain prices are higher than those of grain merchants? ”

"It's not just Gao, second master, eldest uncle, you don't know, the court is really thinking about us this time, the price of this grain is exactly the same as the year before last, and now it will be collected in the county seat." Moreover, if the grain sells well, the price can go up again. ”

"Wang boy, what you said is true?"

"Second master, what am I lying to you for, since I was a child, have I ever lied to you? Moreover, this is not what I said, it was Chu Xiucai from our town who said it, and he just came back from the county seat. He also said that this incident was made by the Song family in our provincial capital, and the whole province is collecting grain, and there are two points in a county town, and everyone can go to sell grain. ”

"Dad, if that's the case, that's great! Our family doesn't have to worry. ”

Everyone was immersed in joy, only the old man was still a little worried.

"There must be a lot of people who go to the county to sell grain these days, and the queue must be long, and our family has no car, so how can we transport the grain."

As soon as this came out, everyone fell silent, yes, this is a big problem.

However, the boy from the Wang family continued to smile and said: "Second master, eldest uncle, you don't have to worry, I heard what Chu Xiucai said, and now the county is only a pilot." After a few days, the town will start to collect it, so let's wait patiently for a few more days. If you can't wait, you can go to the county seat first, and if you can, it will take ten days at most, and the point in the town will be opened. ”

"Whew!" The whole family breathed a sigh of relief, and if that was the case, it would be great that they could not be bullied by the grain collectors.

"To be honest, it's better to be born in the town where the Jiang family is, and when their family harvests grain every year, they never lower the price. It's a pity that our house is too far away from there. ”

As soon as the old man sighed, he heard the boy of the Wang family say excitedly: "Hey! Second master, you are really clever, how do you know that this incident is related to the Jiang family. I heard that this matter was proposed by the Jiang family. You don't know, many people in the town are grateful for the kindness of the Jiang family and the Song family, and think that they are simply the saviors of our province! ”

"The Jiang family is good, the Song family is also good to us ordinary people, they are simply living bodhisattvas."

……

There are countless such examples, and the Jiang family and the Song family are highly evaluated outside. These days, Jiang Xi and Song San have also inspected some places, mainly to see if the people below have violated the yang and yin and are not doing things well.

The situation is not bad, Song San chose more down-to-earth people, plus the use of trustworthy manpower from the Wei family and the Qi family, but he really didn't find out who was lowering the price indiscriminately, and there was a shortage of catties and two.

Originally, the Yang family also planned to participate in this matter, but unfortunately they had already lost their trust in front of Song San. Moreover, Song San knew that Jiang Xi still resented the family for treating her friends so much, and after a few Tai Chi past, she easily rejected the Yang family's request.

Up to now, the Yang family has not even had any real power except for an empty official title, and almost all of the Wei family and the Qi family have been arrested in the provincial capital.

Every three years, if this continues, the Yang family also knows that they will soon be replaced, and they will continue to become the mediocre Yang family in the provincial capital.

It is not easy for the old man of the Yang family to be able to pass the exam, he soon understood what the problem was, not only stopped the Qi girl who was entangled with his son outside the house, but also refused to let people enter the door, but also forced his son to find Li Yunlan to reconcile.

However, the eldest young master of the Yang family didn't like Li Yunlan in the first place, he was forced to marry before, but now he finally took a break, and a poor Qi girl said bad things about Li Yunlan in his ear all day long, how could he lower his price and go to Li Yunlan to apologize and ask for reconciliation.

So, within the Yang family, Old Man Yang and Yang Mingyue's brother began to quarrel.

Yang Mingyue, as a girl from the Yang family, can't break away from the Yang family like Li Yunlan, living in that environment all day long, and just hate not to marry out immediately. Every day, while his father and brother were arguing, he ran out of the house to Li Yunlan's side.

Jiang Xi had been to the courtyard where Li Yunlan lived to see her before, and after the inspection, he brought a lot of daily necessities over.

The last time she went over, she found that not only was there no one in the small courtyard, but there were not even some things for daily use. Li Yunlan can live such a day, but she can't bear to watch it.

"Qinghuan, are things ready?"

"Back to the girl, everything is ready, we can leave at any time."

"Alright, you go and let the front yard lead the carriage to the side door, and we'll leave through the side gate today."

"Yes."

Qing Huan slowly retreated, and Jiang Xi packed up his things and stepped out of the yard.

During this time, the workers on the other side of the workshop have finished their work and are on vacation. Jiang Qian has been busy over there, and there are too many things she needs to do, and she can't steal any leisure. So on the Jiangxi side, only Qing Huan came to serve.

The carriage creaked on the ground, and the carriage was not running fast, and it was not too far away, and it could be passed by walking. Jiangxi uses horse-drawn carriages, also because they are loaded with a lot of things.

"Phew!" The coachman pulled the reins and shouted, and the carriage came to a halt.

"Girl, it's here."

"Hmm." Jiang Xi nodded slightly, the coachman over there had already prepared the pedals, she walked down slowly, and let people move the things out of the car.

"Sister-in-law, it's Jiangxi!" Yang Mingyue said excitedly, Li Yunlan's courtyard is not big, she can hear all their movements at the door, and when she heard the sound of the carriage, she and Yang Mingyue hurriedly ran out to greet her.

Jiang Xi glanced at Li Yunlan, and clearly saw a slight disappointment in those eyes. Her heart moved, it seemed that her sister Yunlan really had a sweetheart.
