Chapter 72: Casting a Long Line to Catch Big Fish
As the name suggests, early japonica rice is harvested relatively early.
The same goes for early Indica rice.
Moreover, whether it is early indica rice or early japonica rice, they all have one thing in common, that is, the belly is white, fragile and fragile, the quality is poor, and the taste is slightly rough when made into rice.
Therefore, the high-quality late japonica rice and late indica rice are the best of the best and paid tribute to the royal family.
In addition, indica rice is mostly used to make pastries and rice noodles, while japonica rice is used to cook porridge, and the two perform their own duties and do not disturb each other, so each of them must be tributed, and it cannot be less.
After the tribute was selected for the royal family, the quality was slightly secondary, which was the home of the high-ranking officials and nobles, the upper officials, and the others, and the lower officials, until the end, and then the rest would be circulated in the market, but in terms of quantity, it was not much.
As for the low-quality early-season rice, it is also divided into new ones.
In the homes of ordinary people, those with better conditions can buy new rice to satisfy their cravings, and those with bad conditions can have rice to eat.
Therefore, the disaster relief grain can only be used in the early season rice, which has a large number of mass-produced quantities and is of poor quality.
It's not that you don't treat the victims as people, and there is no way to do it, after all, the number of victims is also huge, and the yield of high-quality rice is already low, so there is no need for Jingwei to reclaim the sea.
At this time, all the rice that Du Ruo brought back was early-season rice used as disaster relief food.
There is another reason why it is so sure.
Because these rice, the color is slightly yellow, it is a kind of rice that is a specialty of the north, and before, Xiao Mingrui ordered the northern granary to open a warehouse to transport relief grain.
Therefore, there is no doubt that these are relief foods.
"Lord Wang, this is a combination of stolen goods, right?"
Du Ruo showed his white teeth and asked with a smile.
Xiao Tingyi knocked on the table, "Not yet, Cheng Jin himself definitely doesn't dare to have such a big appetite." ”
Behind him, there must be a boatload of people.
And what he and Ye Qingli wanted to do was to kill the boatload of people with a stick, and then fish them all out, dry them on the shore, and overturn the case for Liao Zhi.
"The subordinates have already arranged people to keep an eye on Chengfu Beizhuang these days."
Lin Feng said.
"Could there be such a possibility, my lord?"
Du Ruo seemed to suddenly think of something, and said, "Cheng Jin has been going out of the city frequently recently, in order to find a suitable buyer?" ”
"Not impossible."
Xiao Tingyi continued to knock on the table, "He has been going in and out recently, it must be for contact with someone, that's for sure." ”
"My subordinate has an idea."
Du Ruo smiled suddenly, as if it was a gloom that suddenly bloomed in the dark night.
It's bright and dazzling, but there seems to be a murderous motive behind it.
"Say."
"Why don't we quietly let out the wind and disguise ourselves as a buyer who wants to buy it?"
Du Ruo's face was full of excitement, and he volunteered, "Lord Wang, you are all familiar faces, can you leave this matter to your subordinates?" ”
Lin Feng said helplessly, "Have you seen a girl's family go out to buy grain?" ”
But Xiao Tingyi smiled, "Yes." ”
Lin Feng suddenly realized, and looked at Du Ruo's chest, where it was clear at a glance, a horse and a flat river, a boundless view, and a pair of A.
Pretending to be a man is more than enough.
Moreover, Du Ruo looks charming and charming, and if he pretends to be a man, he is like a handsome man who often goes in and out of Fireworks Willow Lane, if he can really connect with Cheng Jin, maybe he can be introduced as a confidant.
……
Returning to the small courtyard with Linglong, Ye Qingli didn't care about 3721, and lay down on the bed.
At this time, his stomach was gurgling.
Ye Qingli finally realized that after she made such a fuss with Cheng Jin, she didn't have anything to eat, so she came back 'gray'.
I lost my face and didn't fill in my stomach, which is really a bit of a loss.
He also said that he took others to eat delicious food, but he didn't eat a bite.
"Linglong, are you hungry?"
Ye Qingli looked like a carp and rolled up from the bed.
"Slaves are not hungry."
Linglong shook her head, but her stomach protested.
'Goo' –
In the quiet of the night, the sound is especially loud.
Linglong suddenly blushed and lowered her head.
"Let's go find something delicious."
Ye Qingli got out of bed, picked her up and walked out.
Because she estimated that Linglong couldn't cook, she simply didn't ask, although she could cook herself, but today she was so tired that she didn't want to do it.
After going out, Ye Qingli stopped, turned around and asked Linglong with a smile, "Where is the kitchen?" ”
Linglong was suddenly messy, but because she was also hungry, she temporarily abandoned the entanglement of 'I'm going to steal something', and took Ye Qingli to the kitchen without hesitation.
Maybe Ye Qingli is too hungry, or maybe the area of Beizhuang is too big.
Ye Qingli felt that he had walked far, far, far, and finally arrived at his destination.
But it doesn't work out that way.
"Princess, lock the door."
Linglong was a little aggrieved and a little lost.
"What are you afraid of locking the door?"
Ye Qingli smiled, flicked her long sleeves on her arm, took out a hairpin from her hair, and began to poke at the keyhole.
'Click'!
After three or two strokes, the copper lock fell and fell to the ground.
"Whose kitchen needs to be locked?"
Ye Qingli was angry, so he kicked the copper lock out of the way and entered the door with Linglong.
However, after turning on the lamp, the two found that the kitchen was clean as if there were no fireworks in the world.
Ye Qingli finally reacted.
Someone did it on purpose.
"Princess......
Linglong was still aggrieved, Ye Qingli gritted her teeth and squeezed out a smile, "Let's go, this princess still doesn't believe it, she can't even eat a full meal tonight." ”
So, he pulled Linglong out of the door and killed Xiao Tingyi's study with a fierce momentum.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed the door, Xiao Tingyi was facing a table of good wine and food, while Lin Feng was waiting beside him.
"The prince is really interested."
Ye Qingli entered the door with Linglong and sat down unceremoniously.
She suddenly remembered that probably at Cheng Jin's place, Xiao Tingyi might not have eaten much.
"Not bad."
Seeing that Ye Qingli's nose was about to be crooked, Xiao Tingyi nodded happily.
"Linglong, come, eat."
Ye Qingli stretched out her hand to greet her, but where did Linglong dare to step forward, she hung her head down and buried it, standing motionless, only hoping that Xiao Tingyi would ignore her existence.
"Lin Feng."
"Yes."
After Xiao Tingyi's words fell, Lin Feng walked towards Linglong and said, "Come with me." ”
The host eats, and naturally there is no reason for the people to be at the same table and the same table.
Linglong followed Lin Feng out.
"It's getting late, and the kitchen is specially boiling porridge."
Xiao Tingyi pushed the bowl in front of him to her, "Taste it." ”
This move made Ye Qingli can't help but squint her eyes, could it be that there are laxatives added to it?
Looking at her expression, Xiao Tingyi was a little displeased, "This king is not going to poison you, if you want to deal with you, there is a better way." ”
Ye Qingli was speechless, and secretly said in his heart, this person is afraid that he is a roundworm.
So, he took a small spoon and scooped the porridge and drank it.
"How?"
"Not good."
Ye Qingli swallowed the mouthful of porridge and smacked her mouth.
Xiao Tingyi smiled, "You have a lot of trouble, you were originally in the Shilang Mansion, you can't eat this." ”
"Lord Wang, people are hard to dismantle."
Ye Qingli stirred the bowl of porridge in his hand, and found that most of the rice grains were broken and not very formed, and such a bowl of porridge looked rotten.
It's not so much porridge as rice cereal.
Obviously, with the quality of this rice, it should not appear on the dining table of the Nine Emperor Uncles who are above 10,000 people under one person.
Unless......
"Is this disaster relief?"
Ye Qingli looked at him and asked.
An unprecedented hint of approval flashed in Xiao Tingyi's eyes, "The reaction is not too slow, but it is saved." ”
"Cut."
Ye Qingli pursed her lips, she found out, this person can't talk well at all.
If you can listen to it, it will change its taste in his mouth.
It's really that you can't spit out elephant tusks in your mouth.
"It turns out that the prince has already sent someone to collect evidence."
Ye Qingli already knew it.
"Yes, there's a plan now."
Xiao Tingyi drank the wine and said slowly, "This king will send someone to release the news that someone intends to buy a large amount of grain. ”
"What do you do with the grain? Do the rich men raise prices? ”
Ye Qingli just asked casually, but unexpectedly, Xiao Tingyi nodded, "That's right." ”
You must know that a serious businessman will not come to Cheng Jin to buy a large number of them.
Therefore, what Du Ruo needs to play is the merry son of a rich man's family, who only wants to be richer, regardless of the consequences.
And she has to come from the affected area.
Ye Qingli thought about it for a while, and then understood that Cheng Jindu had already done this kind of work to help make the country difficult to make money, and he didn't have a broken number in his heart for a long time, so how could he care if the other party's behavior was correct?
On the contrary, as long as the people they sent were clearly organized, spoke reasonably, and could come up with reasonable evidence to make Cheng Jin believe, then this matter would naturally be resolved.
After all, the autumn harvest is approaching, and the new grain will come down soon, but Cheng Jin is still hoarding so much old grain, and he is probably not sure in his heart.
If this temptation can be successful, it will definitely gain a lot.
"Then who is the prince going to send?"
Ye Qingli suddenly remembered the men's clothes that Mama Gui had prepared for her, and if she was a little easy to look at, others would not be able to see the clues.
Take it all, don't blame it.
But Xiao Tingyi said, "There is already an arrangement, just tell the princess, don't act rashly first." ”
It turned out that he was afraid that he would get in the way?
"Don't worry, the prince is."
Ye Qingli smiled a little indifferently, and asked while eating the vegetables in a big gulp, "In order to prove myself, this kind of thing will definitely not happen." ”
"That's for the best."
Xiao Tingyi was noncommittal, so he listened to Ye Qingli and asked again, "Lord Wang, can the concubine ask a question?" ”
"Say."
"Why, the prince would help Liao Sinong's affairs?"
Saving Liao Hongxue, even if it is in the name of a gentleman, is conducive to maintaining his image of being a prodigal person, but this matter is also quite eye-catching.
If you're not careful, you can be involved in something.
She guessed that if Liao Zhi hadn't had any deep roots or favors for Xiao Tingyi, Xiao Tingyi would definitely not have robbed people.
After all, it's too risky.
Immediately, she heard Xiao Tingyi's deep voice and said slowly, "He saved this king." ”
