CHAPTER XX

Although Liuzhou was also affected, but after all, it was not too serious, his grain, can only be piled up, and when the land route is opened, the food in the affected state city must have been in place at that time, and his grain does not know how much it can be sold, although there is nothing to worry about after a year or so, but the price of old rice is always not worth the new rice of this year, and he has collected a lot of rice and grain, and he will sell it in the next year...... I'm afraid that I will have to lose a lot of money and go in.

After Shang Jinyan finished speaking, he sighed lowly, "I originally thought that there would be a Su Canal Road, who knows...... Jia Song's old horseman, such a treacherous and ruthless person, I don't know how many ordinary people will be scattered by him. ”

Shang Yuyue has been listening quietly, for the marriage between the prefect Zhao Xiaoyi and the Jia family, she can't help but think of Tang Ning, she is Jia Ye's fiancée, in her last life, after the matter of the Friends Inn, he finally married Du Ruo.

In her previous life, she was calculated and lost by Du Ruo, and Jia Ye threatened Tang Yuan to accept Du Ruo as her second daughter with her name, claiming that she was the youngest daughter he fostered in his sister's house, yes, Du Ruo married Jia Ye as the daughter of Xiucai, how could it be Zhao Xiaoyi's concubine who married Jia Ye in this life?

Shang Yuyue faintly guessed that this change should be Tang Ning's handiwork.

It's just that I didn't expect that the granary that hurt Shang Jinyan was shelved.

Suddenly, Shang Yueyue's eyes lit up, and he looked at Shang Jinyan anxiously, "Daddy, are there any other merchants in Liuzhou who have collected a large amount of grain recently?" ”

Shang Jinyan didn't know why Shang Yuyue suddenly asked, but he still said: "There is a rice shop called Mingyuefang that has collected a lot of grain, and the granary of that family has been built very large, and it has also collected a full warehouse, and the owner of that family has never gone to the waterway, but I am afraid that the Jia family will monopolize the waterway." ”

Bright Moon Fang.

Shang Yuyue smiled, what she knew, how could Rong Jin not know?

Even if Rong Jin died in June of the seventeenth year of Tianhua in her previous life, her soul has always been by Ning Jinmo's side, how could she not know about the thing that shocked the world in the eighteenth year of Tianhua?

Rong Jin, who was reborn as Tang Ning, how could she not remember that the thing that shocked the world originated from the trouble of breaking the embankment in Jin and Liuzhou?

In the late May of the eighteenth year of Tianhua, a hailstorm fell, followed by a month of continuous heavy rain, and the embankments in Jinzhou and Liuzhou collapsed one after another, flooding, laying the groundwork for the plague that shocked the world later.

Jinzhou because of the rain disaster in Tianhua 17 years has not much grain, and then after such a heavy rain dam burst, Jinzhou has no rice and no grain for a while, and there are rice merchants from other places who take advantage of this to make a windfall, the price of grain is comparable to gold, Jinzhou has a large population, and there are many people who cannot afford to buy grain.

More than 30,000 people died in that flood, most of whom starved to death!

However, the prefect of Jinzhou not only did not report this, but tried his best to suppress it, and those corpses were thrown in the mass grave at will, at the beginning of August of the eighteenth year of Tianhua, the plague was rampant in Jinzhou, and the neighboring Lanzhou and Jinzhou were infected with the plague, and after a month, the plague spread to Liuzhou, and the Liuzhou County at that time made Chen Shaoyou go on the fold overnight, leading all the doctors in Liuzhou who were not afraid of death to rush to the plague-stricken area in Liuzhou......

It took half a year for the plague to be suppressed, and that time the plague spread to five state cities, killing tens of thousands, and shocked the world.

The prefect of Jinzhou was ordered by the enraged Tianhua Emperor to exterminate the nine clans.

In Liuzhou, which was also due to the collapse of the embankment, because of Chen Shaoyou's proper arrangement, there was no incident of rice merchants sitting on the ground and raising prices, and no one starved to death. Moreover, because of his careful arrangements for water conservancy, the number of casualties in Liuzhou due to the flood was less than 1,000!

In this regard, the court praised Chen Shaoyou and Shangfeng Lin Governor's Mansion, and Emperor Tianhua even rewarded Chen Shaoyou with a plaque of "Hundred Officials Model" written by the imperial pen.

Everyone is jealous and envious of him, but he is in the plague area, comforting the seriously ill plague people, and even taking care of the old people who were infected with the plague and abandoned by their families......

"Ning Bao'er ......"

Seeing that Shang Yuyue was in a daze, Shang Jinyan called her, and when he saw her come back to his senses, he said, "What's wrong?" ”

Shang Yuyue took a deep breath and said, "Daddy, since there is no government order, we are not afraid of losing that bit of silver anyway." ”

Shang Yuyue bowed his head and covered the emotions in his eyes, Liuzhou has a large amount of grain in this life, once the dam collapses next year, Liuzhou's grain can be transported to Jinzhou, whether it is sold to the government or sold to the people of Liuzhou and Jinzhou at the original price, Shang Jinyan will not lose money.

The important thing is that in this life, she will not let the plague of her previous life happen again.

Even if it is to send food to the Jinzhou disaster area for free.

It is also not spared.

Not for the poor people of Jinzhou, not for the more than 100,000 innocent souls in the five states who were killed by the plague.

She's only for one person.

Her husband, Chen Shaoyou!

She was scared.

In his previous life, during the plague, he lost his breath several times, and was rescued several times......

This kind of fear and torture of life and death, it is enough for her to suffer once.

Seeing that she was stunned again, Shang Jinyan sighed, thinking that she was worried about his full granary, reached out and rubbed her hair, and said softly: "Ning Bao'er is right, we don't care about that bit of silver." ”

He's just sorry for the hard work of the past two months.

Shang Yuyue tugged at the corners of his lips, and then listened to Shang Jinyan's little servant Mo An to report that Steward Zhang had arrived.

Shang Yuyue looked at Shang Jinyan suspiciously, when did there be an extra housekeeper Zhang in the house?

"The old slave has seen the old man and the young lady."

When she saw someone coming, Shang Yuyue was stunned, "Shopkeeper Zhang? ”

Isn't this the shopkeeper of the fan shop on Queqiao Street, how did he become the housekeeper in Mo An's mouth?

Shopkeeper Zhang bowed to Shang Yueyue and replied, "It's the old slave." ”

"In the future, the affairs of the house will be handed over to you." Shang Jinyan didn't look at the doubtful Shang Yueyue, and continued to shopkeeper Zhang: "Prepare, we will go to Liuzhou for the New Year in half a month." ”

"Daddy, go to Liuzhou for the New Year?"

Waiting for the shopkeeper to retreat, Shang Yuyue opened his mouth.

Shang Jinyan smiled worriedly, "This time I went to Liuzhou, I went to visit your grandfather's house, and when I came, I promised your grandmother that I would take you to Liuzhou for the New Year this year, and your grandmother and uncle and aunt miss you very much." ”

After Shang Yuyue's mother died, Shang Jinyan has taken care of his ancestor Shen family a lot over the years, but when he thought of the Shen family's family and what he wanted to say, seeing Shang Jinyan's look of expectation and nervousness, he couldn't bear it, so he said: "Just go for my daughter." ”

Seeing Shang Jinyan's expression of relief, Shang Yuyue sighed, if this man didn't have a deep affection for his wife, how could he pay a lot of respect to the insatiable Shen family.
