Chapter 473: Three Elders
Yun Niang was so angry that her face was not good for several days!
And the emperor didn't know if it was a conscience discovery or what, when Yun Niang raised five million catties of grain and grass, he personally wrote the plaque of the first imperial merchant and hung it on the head of Wang Ji Grain Shop.
Watching her food be pulled away and ready to be transported to the border, Yun Niang was very annoyed, she had to earn it back from the old emperor in the future, and she Yun Niang had never suffered such a big loss!
If Yun Xiu hadn't come to her and said that Mr. Ouyang was at the border, Yun Niang wouldn't have taken out so much food so quickly!
Yun Niang pulled out all the grain shops around the capital in a row, so she could take out so much food at once!
There is a name of the imperial merchant, and many merchants and stores in the capital have come to the door and asked for cooperation!
Even ******'s business has become quite popular again! The monthly silver is doubled, and the other state cities are also a lot more polite after knowing that Wang Ji is the imperial businessman, of course, the business is much better than before, the monthly account book is sent to Yun Niang, looking at the numbers on the account book makes Yun Niang feel a little comforted! Of course, that's an afterthought!
"I can't see that the imperial merchant is so famous! It's not in vain that I take so much grain out at once! ”
"Sister, I'm still worried about food!"
"Yes, Yun Xiu, take a look! I am now helping the emperor and his old man to work, not only do I not get paid, but I have to pay out of my own pocket, do you think my sister's deal is cost-effective? Fortunately, there is the name of the imperial merchant, and the tribute rice of the palace has a lot of income, otherwise my sister would really become a person who works for others and pays for nothing! ”
Hearing Yun Niang's complaint, Yun Xiu pursed her lips and smiled, my sister was put on a table by the emperor, so I felt uncomfortable!
In fact, according to the long-term interests, with the title of imperial businessman, it will be more effective with half the effort!
"By the way, Yun Xiu, in two days, my sister must take the people from the household department back to Qicheng, after all, the emperor wants my sister to promote farming in the past few months, and you must take good care of yourself in the capital at that time!"
Speaking of this, Yun Niang's eyes drooped, it has been half a month, why hasn't Brother Yang come back yet, is something wrong!
"Yun Xiu, Brother Yang has no news yet? Will he let his brother go back to Qicheng, otherwise why hasn't he come back yet? ”
"Sister, Yun Xiu has already sent someone out to inquire about Brother Yang's news, but there is no news back, maybe Brother Yang has really returned to Qicheng!"
Hearing the words of comfort between the two, Yun Niang was not only relieved, but also felt even heavier, it had been more than half a month since they arrived in Beijing, and it stands to reason that Brother Yang should have come back a long time ago, but he suddenly lost the news of Brother Yang.
Even Yun Niang asked Nuan Xiang to inquire, but there was no news, and Han Shuyan was not in the royal capital now, and she couldn't find anyone else to help, so she could only hope that Brother Yang would return to Qicheng.
A few days later.
Yun Niang looked at the few old men around her, constantly circling around her, with disbelief and disgust in her eyes.
One of them, an old man with a gray beard and already hanging on his chest, was wearing a coarse linen robe, and the snow-white silver threads were neatly combed on his head, and he was pulled into a with a cloth belt, and his red face showed suspicion.
"You're the girl the saint said? Well? Too small, with fine skin and tender meat, it is not like a person with ability! ”
"Do you have the ability to know? Could it be that Yun Niang will still deceive the emperor? ”
"Old man Qi, what this girl said also makes some sense, she will not be bold enough to deceive the emperor! Tell me, girl, how did you grow that grain! ”
"Yes, tell me, the old man wants to hear about it too!"
The other two old men were also dressed in similar attire, and the three of them gathered in front of Yun Niang and talked about Yun Niang's head for a long time before asking about food.
Looking at the three old men, Yun Niang had no choice but to repeat what she said in front of the emperor again, and the three of them suddenly thought quietly.
"How many degrees is the temperature you are talking about?"
"In the south, it is about the end of autumn when the seeds are to be sown, but in the north, I don't know for the time being, it depends on whether the temperature in the north is suitable! If not, I'm afraid I'll have to plant spring wheat! ”
"What about the tarpaulin you mentioned?"
"The tarpaulin can withstand some cold temperatures, but if the temperature is too low, the seedlings in the field will not develop, and even if they do, they will not be able to harvest! That's not useless! ”
"Hey, isn't it just the temperature difference between the two times? Let's go and see, girl! When do we depart? ”
Hearing that the three old men were more professional than the other, Yun Niang immediately knew that these three old men were not simple, but was it appropriate for them to run so far at such an old age? What if something happens on the road?
"You guys? Three old grandfathers, did the emperor let you be with Yun Niang? ”
"That's right! Don't you know yet? ”
One of the old men was a little fat, not much taller than Yun Niang, and now when he heard Yun Niang's words, he suddenly jumped up.
"Do you look down on us three old guys, let me tell you, girl, we are ······"
"Old man Weng, what are you talking about! Don't scare other girls and yell so loudly. ”
"I don't have ······"
"You still say no, you see that you are like bullying a girl now, let me tell you, old man Weng, if you don't want to go, continue to make trouble here!"
"Hmm, hmm."
Yun Niang stood in place and looked at the three old men, one of whom was called the uncle of Weng Lao, and the other two were covering their mouths to prevent them from talking, and they were also talking about things.
Yun Niang suddenly understood that Weng Lao almost missed his mouth just now, and the corners of his mouth twitched and watched them toss at the moment.
In the middle of the sound, the three of them finally stopped entanglement, and then they tidied up the clothes on their bodies.
"Girl, don't listen to Old Man Weng! Our family has been growing food for generations, because there are many fields, so there is more experience, and the emperor sent us here to let you complete the task early, right? Don't worry, with the three of us old guys here, we will definitely be able to plant the land well! ”
"Yes, yes! Old man Li is right, now we just want to know when to go! ”
Looking at the three pairs of expectant eyes looking at herself, Yun Niang calculated that the days are almost the end of July now, and if she sets off in the next two days, she will return to Qicheng to plant wheat almost just now, and then she will be able to let these old men take a look.
"Just for a few days!"
"How many days are left? Tomorrow, tomorrow, let's go back and take two clothes and leave, it's too late in a few days! ”
"Yes, yes! Then let's go back and pack our things! Tomorrow will be waiting for you at the city gates! ”
"Okay, let's go!"
The three old men discussed it to themselves and ran directly everywhere, without asking Yun Niang's opinion, leaving Yun Niang in the same place, watching a few people leave, Yun Niang's face suddenly showed a wry smile.
