Chapter 637: My treasury is empty

Liang Jun is a clever person, as long as he makes a move, a look, or even a voice, he can know what he wants him to do, but today he has given him such an obvious hint, but he has no reaction, it is abnormal.

The emperor was a little puzzled in his heart, but he didn't care about asking Xiao Man to help him do something today, and after thinking about it, only Xiao Man came and sent Xiao Man over, which was also what he gave to Zhou Duchan...... A pleasant surprise.

Looking at Xiao Man's reluctant expression, he thought that he was still hiding from Xiao Man that Zhou Duchan was not dead.

"Little Man, don't you want to know about Zhou Duchan?"

This is this sentence Xiaoman's expression changed, his eyes looked at the emperor, there was expectation and fear, these days and nights Xiaoman couldn't sleep peacefully, and Zhou Duchan's disappearance has always been a pain that Xiaoman didn't dare to say.

Chen Guifei pulled the Lord of Sydney out at this moment.

Looking back at Xiao Man, Shirley knew that the three words Zhou Duchan were more useful than anything else, and at the same time, she also believed that even if it was for Zhou Duchan, Xiao Man would not compromise anything with the emperor, Xiao Man said that if you love someone, you must be loyal and absolutely loyal, if the emperor plans to use Zhou Duchan to threaten Xiao Man, then he really made a mistake, Xiao Man's waist The belt is special, the middle of the belt is empty, and there is a special weapon soft sword hidden in it.

Liang Jun seemed to have roots on his feet, he knew that he should leave at this time, leaving space and time to the emperor, but he couldn't move his feet, in fact, even he didn't know what he wanted to do when he stayed, or what he didn't want to happen.

"Little Man, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing recently?"

The emperor opened the intersection first, and Liang Jun was pleasantly surprised, the emperor did not drive him out.

"Thanks to the emperor's words, the little girl is doing well, catching thieves, walking dogs, listening to music, watching plays, eating well and sleeping well."

"Oh yes? But how do I look at the little girl, it seems that she has lost weight. ”

Xiao Man pretended to be happy and showed a big smile, "Really? Thank you for the emperor's compliment. ”

"Thank me, when did I compliment you?"

"I've been losing weight recently, and the emperor said that I have lost weight, so it can be seen that my weight loss seems to be starting to bear fruit."

The emperor looked at Xiaoman's smile, those moving eyes, there was no smile, clearly with unspeakable pain, it seems that you are pretending not to care with me, you are really a stubborn girl, you have to pretend not to care in front of me, why torture yourself.

Knowing why Xiao Man stayed obediently, the emperor just didn't talk about Zhou Duchan's affairs, Xiao Man listened to the emperor himself saying irrelevant and nutritious words, and kept putting up with it.

Seeing that Xiao Man's expression was changing little by little, even the smile that dealt with him disappeared, the emperor knew that Xiao Man had lost his patience, but he didn't expect Xiao Man to stop being able to bear it, he originally thought that if he couldn't say a few words, this girl would have to blow up.

As soon as the conversation changed, the emperor suddenly asked seriously: "The girl is willing to go to the place where Lord Zhou disappeared to find it in person, and I will arrange people for you, everything is ......." ”

Without waiting for the emperor to finish speaking, Xiao Man couldn't wait to say: "I am willing to ......, I am willing to ......." ”

"Miss Xiaoman, don't worry, listen to me first after I finish my conditions."

"I'm willing to ...... no matter what the conditions."

"Oh, really?"

"The emperor is the son of heaven of my Great Xia Dynasty, and the dragon and phoenix among people are gentlemen, I believe that the emperor will not embarrass my little girl."

Liang Jun stood behind and couldn't help but praise Xiao Man in his heart, so if the emperor really put forward any excessive conditions, it would damage the emperor's reputation if they were spread out.

"I'll tell you the truth, my treasury is empty."

Xiao Man chuckled in his heart, this is a major event of the imperial court, shouldn't it be kept secret so as not to cause panic, how can the emperor tell himself this, he doesn't want me to fill his treasury, why.

In the midst of his thoughts, he heard the emperor say: "Miss Xiaoman must be very curious, why am I telling you this." ”

Put away the previous appearance of hanging children, the emperor stood up and walked in front of Xiao Man, "My treasury is empty, I don't know what went wrong, my people have suffered natural disasters but I can't save them, those old guys in the court I said let them donate silver, one of them cried poor with me, saying that the family is almost unable to open the pot, they are fools, they eat and drink every month, bigger than mine, I said to reduce expenses, one by one blocked, I asked them to find a way to come out, they pretended to be deaf and dumb one by one." ”

"What does the emperor want me to do?"

"Help me prepare enough food, and I will send someone to escort you and the food to the affected towns in the south, and cooperate with the officials to help the people affected by the disaster."

"I, how can the emperor believe in me like this, in case I don't ...... if I can't do it well."

"I believe in my own vision, the girl is a talented person, and she is more capable than those cunning old men."

"The little woman knows that the emperor is complimenting me."

"Of course ......."

"When can you go?"

"How much food does the emperor need?"

"300,000 catties of grain."

"Your Majesty, you are robbing a bank, and your treasury of 300,000 catties is now empty, where do you think I can get 300,000 catties of grain at once."

In fact, the emperor wanted to pit Xiaoman, in addition to the food for disaster relief, he also wanted Xiaoman to enrich his treasury a little, but he had already expected that Xiaoman was not so easy to talk and would not agree easily.

"I want so much food for this food, and I can't pay you back now, so you can put forward conditions, as long as I can do it, I will give you the opportunity to give you convenience, you can use the name of the court to earn silver, and it depends on your ability to earn more or less."

After finishing speaking, the emperor was not in a hurry, picked up the teacup on the table, and slowly tasted the tea.

In fact, Xiaoman has bought a lot of fields in those rich places over the years, so of course, he has gone back and forth so many times, and he has not been to a place, Xiaoman will learn about the main crops in the local area, and every time he leaves, he will always buy dozens of acres of land and hire some people to farm. ”

Xiaoman thinks very clearly, in this era food is more important than anything else, for this reason Xiaoman almost began to buy land frantically, hire people to grow crops, in addition, Xiaoman in some places where transportation is more convenient, built a lot of grain depots, did not think that after the harvest, if the warehouse is full, the grain will be sold, if the warehouse is not full after the harvest, the harvest of grain will be added back to the warehouse, usually in need of it or nearby to replace, will not be excessive when the use of food is not excessive or insufficient.

This is a long-term investment, and you can't care about the immediate gains and losses.

Xiao Man still agreed, but Xiao Man was also very unceremonious to open up with the emperor and the emperor, the emperor was very obedient this time, Xiao Man proposed something, he agreed without thinking about it, this is a bit unexpected by Xiao Man, originally I didn't follow the personality of the love Man.

In the Imperial Garden, Chen Guifei kept trying to speak and wanted to bring herself and the Lord of Sydney closer, but Xue Lijun ignored him at all, her eyes were always looking at the exit of the main hall, and her expression was always very nervous, so she blocked the position of the exit.

After trying a few times, Chen Guifei found that she couldn't make this Shirley county lord move for half a minute at all, and then she simply gave up, because the emperor and Xiao Man had been alone in the room for more than 1 hour, and no matter what they did, it was already too late.

After all the serious things were discussed, Xiao Man was no longer so disgusted with the emperor at this time.

"Your Majesty, I want to know about Zhou Duchan...... Still haven't heard from you yet? ”

The emperor also relaxed at this time, "Lord Zhou...... He....... ”

almost got out and said that Zhou Duchan is now in Luoshui Town.

The emperor looked at Xiao Man's stunning little face, and a demon flashed in his heart, "Miss Xiao Man, when you go south, if you pass by Luoshui Town, don't stop in the town." ”

"Why?"

"Because there are often robbers there, and they specialize in kidnapping beautiful little girls."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, if there is nothing to do, the little woman will go down and let people prepare food."

"Little Man, be careful not to leak out, and be even more careful with the grain, those who empty the treasury don't want this grain to be transported to the disaster area."

"Thank you for reminding the emperor, we will go down and rethink it, and there are only three of us present today, if the news goes out, it means that one of the three of us must be a traitor.

Liang Jun felt that Miss Xiaoman's eyes swept over him, and he actually felt a little nervous.

The emperor laughed, "Miss Xiaoman, this is my king, Xiao Dezi is impossible to say to outsiders." ”

Liang Jun hurriedly stepped forward at this time and expressed his center twice.

The emperor finally let Xiaoman and the lord of Sydney leave, and it was still Liang Jun who sent them out.

This time Liang Jun didn't bring any little eunuchs, only he sent Xiao Man out by himself, but the way he walked this time was a little different from when he came in, and Xiao Man quickly noticed it.

"Father-in-law Liang, this is not the way we came."

"yes, I'll take a closer route."

Liang Jun lowered his head and did not slow down, and he was already walking in front of him without hurrying or slow, Xiao Man had some doubts in his heart but still didn't say anything.

The lord of Sydney has been looking at Liang Jun in front of him very vigilantly, always feeling that this person is weird, pulling Xiao Man and that Liang Jun away a little, the Lord of Sydney asked the doubts in his heart: "Xiao Man, what did the emperor leave you behind today, he didn't bully you." ”

Xiao Man gently patted the hand of the Lord of Sydney, "No, don't say anything now, when you get out, I am telling you about the carriage." ”

The road was very desolate, and Xiaoman and Shirley County Lord were on guard.
