Chapter 478: Find a way
Chu Qingchen thought about it for a while, and then he had an idea.
"Dacheng has a locust plague, other countries do not have locust plagues, and there is abundant grain, so we can buy grain from several small countries that have good relations with Dacheng."
Shen Mochu's sad face between his eyebrows stretched out slightly, and his eyes looked at her appreciatively, she could always give him unexpected surprises.
"Lady, your method is so good, why didn't I expect it, lady, you don't know how many people's lives have been saved by this method"
At present, as long as the grain depot can have enough food, it can cope with this locust plague, and the people are short of food. As for the silver taels, it is not a problem, the treasury is not enough silver, and both he and Chenchen can take out the silver taels as silver taels to buy grain with other small countries.
Shen Mochu didn't dare to delay entering the palace for a moment to explain the matter to the emperor, the sooner the grain depot was full, the more relieved he would be.
Chu Qingchen looked at the back of Shen Mochu leaving, and sighed secretly.
"Didn't my sister think of a way to solve the problem of lack of food due to the locust plague? Why is my sister more worried? ”
Chu Tianming had been listening to his sister and brother-in-law talk about this matter on the sidelines, and he couldn't interject, but those who had read the book could still understand it, and his sister's intelligence was beyond his reach.
"It's nothing, you and Little Douding go play"
Chu Qingchen hid her thoughts, and when her two younger brothers were young, she couldn't mention it to them, so as not to panic.
Chu Qingchen turned around and went back to the house, she was thinking that this locust plague could be avoided, but she couldn't avoid other disasters, after the autumn harvest was frost, even if the people could have food in this cold winter, it would not be easy!
She has to think carefully about how to completely solve the problem of the decline of Dacheng's national fortunes from the root, so that the people can not suffer many disasters.
She was bored, found a piece of paper, picked up the wolf pen, and didn't know what to write on it, so she involuntarily drew the ancient characters on the space earth spirit bead.
She never forgets it, even if she doesn't know these characters, she can draw a big picture according to the gourd drawing.
Shen Mochu entered the palace and told the little emperor the method that Chu Qingchen had come up with, and the little emperor heard that his mother still had a way.
The civil and military forces of this Manchu Dynasty are not as smart as his mother, why didn't they come up with such a unique method, Dacheng has not enough food, and buying food from those small countries that are good friends with Dacheng will not solve the problem of insufficient food due to locust plagues.
At present, although the treasury is more abundant than in the past few days, it is still not enough to purchase grain from other small countries in large quantities.
Shen Mochu didn't wait for the little emperor to speak, and he first expressed his attitude.
"The emperor and the ministers still have some spare money at home, and the ministers are willing to take it out to buy food, and the minister's wife will also support the minister's approach."
The little emperor was moved! Every time he encountered something that could not be solved, his father and his mother would help, and he was grateful, thinking that he would be filial to his father and mother after the locust plague.
In the spring of next year, various small countries will come to pay tribute, and if there are good things, he will move them to his mother's house.
Shen Mochu asked the little emperor to send some people to go back to the mansion with him to get the silver, the sooner this matter is resolved, the better, and it can't be delayed, so as not to cause extraneous branches.
The little emperor's people followed him back to the palace, and Shen Mochu found Chenchen in the room and said that the treasury was not enough silver, and he asked the little emperor's people to come and get it.
"I will naturally agree to the matter of the minister's silver, this is for the benefit of the people, I will go with you and call the little guy in the house to move the silver out"
Chu Qingchen drew all the characters recorded on the Earth Spirit Beads that he saw in his memory on the paper, and she just finished drawing when Shen Mo first came in.
She put down the wolf pen and got up to get the key to the treasure house of the palace, after getting married, she was in charge of the house, and the key to the treasure house was handed over to her by Shen Mochu for safekeeping.
She took the key and followed Shen Mochu to the place where the silver was placed in the treasure house, the palace was very large, there were six treasure houses alone, and there were two treasure houses for antique calligraphy and paintings, each of which was very precious, and it was a unique piece of contemporary life.
All of them are Shen Mochu's collections, which are very valuable.
There are two treasure houses for gold, one treasure house for silver, and one treasure house for the treasures rewarded by the emperor in the palace.
The dowry when she got married was not placed in these treasures, and it was also placed in the palace, but it was just a special place in the front yard.
Chu Qingchen opened a treasure trove of gold, only to see that it was full of gold, and it was stacked into a small mountain high in boxes, and the boxes were placed five stories high.
She instructed the little servant to move all the gold here, and it took a quarter of an hour for a dozen Xiao Si to move it, a total of one hundred and three boxes of gold.
These are enough to buy enough food with the small neighboring countries.
The imperial guards who came to fetch the gold in the palace, four people carried a box, and the group returned to the palace to resume their lives.
They all know that this box contains gold, which was donated by Shoufu and Emperor Shibai, and the people are blessed, and Dacheng can have such two people for their sake.
Shen Mochu's matter was temporarily resolved, he pulled Chenchen back to the house, thinking that when he came in, he saw what she was writing there?
Fang had something to do, and he didn't have time to look at what Chenchen had written on the paper.
This will work, he raised his hand and picked up the piece of paper that Chenchen had drawn, and looked at it carefully. There were a bunch of characters on it, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that the characters seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them.
Chu Qingchen looked at Shen Mochu's seriousness, and she was overjoyed, "Xianggong, you have been watching for so long, do you know these characters?"
"I don't know"
Shen Mochu's eyes were still staring at the paper, and he replied without thinking.
"I don't know if you've been staring at it for so long, and I'm so happy"
When Shen Mochu heard this, he didn't put his eyes on the top of the drawing paper, but turned to look at Chenchen.
"Lady, are you angry?"
Shen Mochu walked over and wrapped his arms around her waist, and pulled her into his arms with a slight force.
"No, I'm not in the mood to play with you, although the food problem has been solved, there are still many things in front of me, such as the ancient characters you have been staring at, what is translated to express is one of the problems I want to solve"
Chu Qingchen always had a hunch that this ancient character was expressing, what was the Earth Spirit Bead? Where did it come from? Why does the Earth Spirit Bead have infinite aura?
Shen Mochu didn't even look happy on her little face, knowing that she was really not in the mood and seemed to be troubled by many things.
"Although I don't know the ancient character of the lady, I seem to have an impression of it in my mind, where I should have seen it, but I can't remember it for a long time."
Chu Qingchen was still a little excited when he heard this, he didn't expect him to see it.
Shen Mochu has always been accurate in his speech, saying that where he has seen it, he has seen it, and he will never be perfunctory to her.
"Xianggong, you must think carefully about where you have seen this ancient character, Xianggong, you don't know that this is very important to me"
Where could Shen Mochu refuse her coquettishness, the woman's eyes were like silk, and her watery eyes looked at him expectantly.
Even if he didn't sleep tonight, he had to figure out where he had seen it.
