Ma Hao was not stupid, and he understood almost instantly that Zhao Hanzhang was going to use the money confiscated from Hu County's order to buy food with him.

Some of the belongings in the Ma family's courtyard were really left there by the Ma family.

Ma Hao rubbed his forehead, most of the treasures could not be taken back, he also made a quick decision, after glancing at Ma Zuo, he nodded and answered, pointed to Ma Zuo and Zhao Hanzhang gently: "This is the younger brother, he has been in charge of the housework, and the county wants to buy food, just look for him." ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded at Ma Zuo and looked at the other party by the way.

Ma Zuo, who bent down slightly and lowered his head, was much more pleasing to the eye than Ma Xuan, and Zhao Hanzhang did not hesitate to praise her, and asked directly: "Since Ma Zuo is taking care of the general affairs, why did Ma Xuan come to the county government to deal with things?" ”

Ma Hao's face stiffened, and he hurriedly asked, "But my brother's words offended Jun Cheng?" ”

He hurriedly said: "He is stupid in reading, not because he has the intention of offending, and he also asks the county to be tolerant in my face......

For fear that Zhao Hanzhang would be unhappy, he would cut Ma Xuan as well.

Zhao Hanzhang waved his hand unmindingly: "Don't worry, he's fine, he is eating at a bar with Liang Xiancheng at this time." ”

Ma Hao: ......

Having said that, he still didn't feel at ease, it was the first time they met, and Zhao Hanzhang was too cruel.

Zhao Hanzhang took the opportunity to mention the matter of buying grain, although he said that Ma Zuo was solely responsible, but Liang Hong also said that the Ma family was Ma Hao's decision.

If the food she wants to buy exceeds his bottom line, he will naturally have to decide, and it will be too troublesome to come and go.

So she directly ignored Ma Zuo behind her, and said to Ma Hao: "I want to buy two thousand stones of grain with the Ma family." ”

Ma Hao: ...... Why don't you just say that I'm going to loot all the food in your family's stockpile.

Of course, Ma Hao couldn't sell Zhao Hanzhang two thousand stone of grain, although he could still get it by squeezing it, but in this way, his family would also run out of grain.

The Ma family has raised a lot of subordinates, of course, they are far inferior to the Zhao family's subordinates, but the daily expenses are also a lot.

Thinking of this, Ma Hao finally didn't want to push the trouble to Ma Zuo, but cheered up and bargained with Zhao Hanzhang.

In fact, there is not much to argue about the price of grain, he is willing to lower some prices and sell them to Zhao Hanzhang, Zhao Hanzhang does not want to push the price too low, there are still five counties after Miyang County, she hopes that the news of her generosity and wealth can be spread, it is best to spread the news of Runan County, drift to the entire Yuzhou, and attract more grain merchants and gentry.

So they're fighting for volume.

Zhao Hanzhang wants to buy more, and Ma Hao wants to sell less.

Mazo listened from the sidelines, and there was a strange feeling that it was the first time that a buyer wanted to buy more, but the seller wanted to sell less.

Zhao Hanzhang finally succeeded in setting the amount of 1,200 stones, and negotiated the price.

Zhao Hanzhang was very generous, and said directly: "I'll go back and let people send the money." ”

Ma Hao was taken aback, and immediately said: "Don't worry, don't worry, wait until I prepare for the grain to be traded......"

Zhao Hanzhang smiled at him and said, "I can trust Master Ma, I'll pay this money first, I think we should be able to trade soon, right?" ”

She said meaningfully: "The people are waiting for the relief of food." ”

Ma Hao can't say anything against it, does he dare to repent? Does he dare to procrastinate?

As soon as Zhao Hanzhang left, Ma Hao lay down on the bed with a painful heart, his brows furrowed.

Ma Zuo sent Zhao Hanzhang out of the door and came back and saw it, bowed down and stood on the side, Ma Hao relieved a little, got up and said angrily: "Let people go to the county government to call Brother Xuan back and let him deal with Zhao Hanzhang, what did he do?" ”

Everyone came to him, but he was still nowhere to be seen in the county office.

Ma Zuo responded, turned around and was about to go down, Ma Hao stopped him, frowned and said, "Leave these little things to the housekeeper to do, and you take someone to the warehouse to count the grain." ”

He sighed and said, "The grain in the granary should not be enough, and I have to ask Zhuangzi to send some up." ”

Ma Zuo responded, and after a pause, he still asked, "Why did the eldest brother agree to her?" With so much food, the family will have to have a hard time in the future. ”

"Zhao Hanzhang is this person...... Be bold and reckless, give it to her now, that is to buy and sell, she is good to me, good to everyone. Ma Hao paused and said, "If you don't give it, who knows if the Ma family will encounter bandits and bandits in the future?" ”

said that the county order will be cut the county order, in the face of such a county, Ma Hao did not dare to have too high expectations.

Sure enough, Zhao Hanzhang bought the first batch of grain, and when he returned to the county office, he began to issue an announcement, and asked the officials and the husband to read it out in each village, the content was very simple, they changed the county order in Miyang County, and the county government wanted to distribute relief food, so that the villagers in each village could go to the county seat to receive the food.

All those who died this year because of poverty were pardoned, and as long as she returned to her hometown, she could act as if nothing had happened and give them some relief food to help them tide over the difficulties.

When the news spread, because they knew that Hu County's order was cut off by the new county man, many people directly believed Zhao Hanzhang and began to drag their families to the county seat with their books.

When many villagers who had already quietly blocked the road to collect tolls heard the news, they also quietly returned to the village, pretending that nothing had happened.

But there are also those who stay in the mountains and insist on making a living by robbing homes and houses.

Zhao Hanzhang flipped through the news that was being reported by each mile, and he knew it in his heart.

If you want to say who knows the bandit situation in Piyang County best, it is Fu Tinghan.

The bandits and bandits are also good people, they also have household registration before they fall into the grass, and they are also under the jurisdiction of Lizheng, so the one who knows the most about the situation below is none other than Lizheng.

And Fu Tinghan, who had gathered so much positive news, naturally knew the situation best, and he waited for Zhao Hanzhang to finish reading it before he said: "Now there are more than 300 bandits in the Houshan Valley, and in addition to the original villagers in the Houshan Valley, a considerable number of them were attracted from other places. ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded, "There are still a lot of people." ”

Fu Tinghan asked: "Do you want to suppress bandits?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang shook his head, "The manpower and material resources spent on suppressing bandits are not small, they have just started, they are just robbing the merchants passing by, and they haven't killed anyone yet, I don't want to use my soldiers to fight with them?" ”

Fu Tinghan's heart moved, and he turned his head to look at her, "So? ”

"That's why I'm going to recruit An!" Zhao Hanzhang said: "Salute first and then soldiers, and see if you can attract people in." ”

"Who's going to say?"

"Naturally, I went," Zhao Hanzhang said: "Mr. Ji is not here, Liang Hong is not enough to trust, and his ability and prestige are not up to it, he will go for nothing, it is better for me to go in person." ”

Fu Tinghan nodded, closed the booklet in his hand, got up and said, "Then let's go." ”

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him stunned, "You are going too?" ”

? ?See you tomorrow
