The shortage of materials is far more serious than Xiao Qin imagined.

Despite the fact that there are a large number of horse teams every day, they continue to enter and exit Yaofu.

Everything seems to be in order, but it's just a phenomenon that outsiders seem.

As for Yao Qinian himself, he has something to say.

It's hard to say, it's really hard to say.

He was miserable by Xiao Qin this time, and he couldn't be described with blood.

It's a bottomless pit!

At first, it was only a few villages and towns that could still be sustained by relief rations.

Later, Xiao Qin sent a message to provide simultaneous relief to the 230,000 victims.

Two hundred and thirty thousand victims, that's two or three hundred thousand mouths, and how much food must be consumed in a single day.

The granaries of Huzhou Mansion, large and small, have been tossed all the way in just four days.

Even the official food that couldn't be moved, Yao Qinian gritted his teeth and stomped his feet.

That's not enough, you have to pay money to go to other continents to buy it.

The key continents are only in charge of the affairs of each continent, and your state capital has a natural disaster, and you come to me to buy grain, so you should pay or you have to pay for it.

Even if the above speaks, that won't work.

You ask why, why do you know, when it's time to pay the treasury money to the imperial court, you have the ability to bargain with them.

What?

Are you in a hurry?

Need to expedite the transfer?

No problem, the food is urgent, and the silver has to be urgent, so there is nothing to discuss.

Yao Qinian is on fire, this is.

These dogs are crumb, and they dare to make a fortune at this time, so they took the opportunity to ask him for sky-high food.

Brown rice, which usually costs a few taels of silver, now dares to ask for a dozen taels and a load.

The key is the same, he can't help but buy it.

The tax money to be handed over to the treasury can only enter and not leave, and it is sealed, and whoever moves it will die the whole family.

There is no room for negotiation.

So what to do, you can only pay out of your own pocket.

It's okay to say for a day or two, the key is that Xiao Qin hasn't even been able to give the bottom, when will this come to an end.

Not to mention the Yao family of a century-old family, even the richest man in the Dragon Country can't withstand such a bottomless pit.

This night, Yao Qilai paced back and forth, and his toothache was terrible.

He didn't think it would be a problem to go on like this.

The more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes.

So he immediately summoned the insiders of the Yao family and held an emergency meeting at night.

All the Yao family's own family, together with the wife of the main room, were also invited to the meeting.

There are enough people to think about, let's imagine a way to see how this thing should continue.

Yao Qinian put the accounts of the past few days in front of everyone, and the rations for the relief of the victims on this day alone were astronomical.

Yao Qinian said bluntly, if it goes on like this, at most full-term, Yao's Mansion will be poor and unable to open the pot, and he won't be able to last one more day.

As soon as Yao Qinian said this, the people below immediately began to gossip, saying everything.

There are many people who scold Xiao Qin for being a vampire.

Yao Qinian listened to it even more angrily, and the convener came to the meeting not to let them vent their negative emotions, but to solve practical problems.

Quit?

The military orders have been made, why don't you say you won't do it, you know what this is, the crime of bullying the king is light.

said that Xiao Qin is a vampire, so what about your rice buckets, how many years have you sucked the blood of my Yao family, why haven't you ever stood up when you used you.

"Sir, I have an idea." Niece and daughter-in-law Yao Yu spoke.

"Quick, quick!"

"The cheap daughter-in-law thinks that the disaster treatment is not the business of our Yao family, but the business of the entire Huzhou, why should our family pay for it."

"What do you mean......" Yao Qinian frowned.

"That's right, raid the house!" Yao Yushi said categorically: "Our Huzhou Mansion is already rich, and there are many wealthy businessmen in the local area, how can they stay out of the matter at this time and watch a good show on the sidelines, it makes no sense at all!" ”

"Go on, you go on!"

"The eldest lord can ask them to borrow money first, these rich businessmen are very thieves, and they will definitely not borrow, and then we just need to think of a reasonable reason, and just raid the house and be done."

"This ......" Yao Qinian shook his head: "It's not proper, it's not proper, you don't know that anyone who can do a big deal in Huzhou Mansion has something to do with it in the Imperial City." ”

"To put it bluntly, there are people on it, it's easy to copy the house, the key is to copy it, and the official of this master has also done it."

Yao Tao stood up: "Dad is right, Huzhou Mansion is different from other state capitals, first, it is not far from the imperial city, and the relationship between officials and businessmen is complicated. ”

"Take the Liu family, the largest copper and iron merchant in Dongcheng, they are above the people from the Ministry of Industry, as well as the salt merchant Bai family, and the horse merchant Cao family, which one is not watched by a big man?"

"Moving them is undoubtedly asking for trouble."

Yao Yushi was unconvinced: "But there is really no other way at the moment, who can manage so much when it is critical, and first get through the crisis and talk about other troubles." ”

"It's not like there's no other way." Yao Tao said: "It will definitely not work to raid the house, but we can borrow it." ”

"Borrow?" Yao Qinian smiled bitterly: "Tao'er, you are joking, what your third sister-in-law just said is very clear, those rich businessmen are extremely cunning, they do superficial work at most, a drop in the bucket, even if the father personally pulls down the old face, I am afraid that it is meaningless." ”

"Of course, it's not easy for me to borrow from Yao's house." Yao Tao said slowly: "But if one person comes forward, it's completely different. ”

"You mean Xiao Qin?" Yao Qinian hesitated: "No, don't talk about Xiao Qin's current identity, even in the past, he and our Huzhou side of the well water do not interfere with the river water, and it is useless to open your mouth." ”

Yao Tao shook his head: "No, it's not Xiao Qin, Dad, have you forgotten that there is a bigger guest in our house than Xiao Qin?" ”

"Her Royal Highness Princess Evian!" Mrs. Yao exclaimed, "Yes, sir! How can we forget this big Buddha! ”

"With Her Royal Highness the princess coming forward, this matter will be done!"

Yao Qinian slapped his forehead violently, and his eyes widened: "Look at my brain, confused, confused!" ”

"Quick! Hurry up and have a ...... No, no, no, I'll go and ask His Highness Evian in person, yes, go, let's go! ”

"Peach, you follow your father, if this matter is done,!"
