Datong Mansion City, outside the East Gate.

The prefect of Datong with all the important officials of the city stood at the gate of the city, waiting for someone.

There are people coming and going at the gate of the city, and there are countless people entering and leaving the city, and this scene is naturally seen by people.

"What's going on, why did Fuzun personally go out of the city and wait for someone, are there any important people coming?"

A person next to him said mysteriously: "Nonsense, isn't this obvious?" Just looking at this posture, all the big officials in our Datong have arrived, which shows that the people who come are definitely not simple. ”

Seeing that he seemed to know something, everyone couldn't help but prick up their ears.

I want to hear what this guy knows.

"Who is here, who can alarm so many big officials."

The man smiled: "Of course it's ......"

He deliberately paused as he spoke, and just when everyone was sick and this guy could say something earth-shattering, this guy suddenly said: "A big official who is bigger than our Datong prefect."

The people around him were speechless at the same time.

"If you don't know, you don't know, what to pretend, delay me from going into the city to buy food."

"I don't know what the imperial court thinks, four taels of silver and one stone of grain, this rice particle is worth more than gold."

"If it weren't for the famine, I wouldn't have starved to death to buy such expensive food."

However, among the common people, there are also some who think deeply.

"Be content, although food is expensive now, you can still buy food."

"A few days ago, the government came to limit the price of grain and prevent those profiteers from selling high-priced grain. The result? There is no way to buy food at all. ”

"Those black-hearted grain shops say that they don't have food, and they only sell a little bit every day, but they can't buy food when they go late."

Another person also gritted his teeth and said: "There is no grain in the grain store, but the grain on the black market has already been bought for three taels of silver, it is better to be like now, at least you can buy grain in the grain store."

This remark also caused dissatisfaction among many people.

"You are interesting, the government has sold the price of grain to the sky, and you still speak for the government."

"It's the first time I've heard of the government's increase in grain prices during the famine, and our Ming Dynasty can be regarded as creating a new atmosphere."

This has been a bit too much, and many people around have changed their faces all of a sudden.

Originally, the gossiping people were all together, and they were all gone.

The drought in Datong was still going on at this time, and the sun was scorching, as if it was directly on fire.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the person who was waiting still did not show up.

Wu Zhen was already sweating, and the government was about to be washed by his sweat.

An official next to him swallowed his saliva with difficulty: "Fuzun, why hasn't His Royal Highness come yet."

That's right, the person who can make all the high-ranking officials in the entire Datong put down the things in their hands and come to greet them is none other than King Zhu Han.

"It should be almost there, wait."

Wu Zhen wiped the sweat from his face and said quietly.

seems to be respectful and respectful, but in fact, Wu Zhen doesn't know how many times he has complained in his heart.

Zhu Han used the identity of the prince to force them to raise the price of grain in Datong to four taels of silver and one stone.

This incident has already caused an uproar in the entire Datong.

As a result, what Wu Zhen didn't expect was that Zhu Han was not only in Yanjing, but also pointed fingers at Datong.

This restless guy even ran to Datong in person.

Wu Zhen even wanted to ask.

"Your Royal Highness, do you think that it is not enough to harm our Datong in Yanjing, you must come over in person and turn the entire Datong upside down before you are willing?"

Naturally, he didn't dare to show the thoughts in his heart, and Wu Zhen could only reluctantly put on an official and authoritative appearance, restraining the officials below over and over again.

But it's not a hassle.

This time, it was His Royal Highness the King of the Ming Dynasty. Datong, but no one dares not to give face to the British king.

These people have been staring at them for more than an hour, and the king's car is driving, and it is long overdue.

The magnificent carriage stopped in front of all the officials of Datong Mansion.

King Zhu Han pulled the curtain on the car door, and Shi Shiran stepped out of the carriage.

Seeing Zhu Han coming down, Wu Zhen took the lead in kneeling down and said loudly: "Wu Zhen, the prefect of Xiaguan Datong, has seen His Royal Highness the King of England, the King of England is a thousand years old and a thousand years old."

The other officials of Datong also knelt on the ground with a hula and shouted at the same time.

"His Royal Highness, Chitose Chitose Chitose."

In the past, Zhu Han hated this kind of thing the most, but he also knew that these things on the scene were necessary in this era.

Usually he can not care, but as the prince of the Ming Dynasty, he must maintain these rules on formal occasions.

"Get up." Zhu Han said lightly.

After Wu Zhen stood up, he hurriedly said respectfully: "Lord Wang, the lower officials have already arranged a mansion for the prince, and the prince can go and rest first."

"Moreover, the lower officials have also asked people to prepare a banquet to wash the dust for the prince."

Zhu Han waved his hand: "Now that the disaster situation in Datong is urgent, the things on these scenes will be exempted."

"Now this king needs to know immediately the specific disaster situation in Datong."

"By the way, in order to deal with the disaster, the students of this king also made a special artifact that can alleviate some of the drought. At the very least, a large part of the bookmakers can be saved. ”

"You should immediately give this king and gather all the blacksmiths in Datong who are relatively good at work. At the same time, it was sorted out that although Datong is now affected by the disaster, there are still some crops that can barely be harvested. At this time, it can be a little bit a little bit. ”

Zhu Han's vigorous and resolute style made Wu Zhen a little confused.

What's going on?

Why does His Royal Highness in front of him seem to be different from what he remembers?

Before arriving in Datong, he forcibly ordered the price of grain to rise.

Wu Zhen always thought that His Royal Highness the King was an insatiable scumbag who wanted to make a fortune.

Although Zhu Han had a good reputation before, Wu Zhen, as a high-ranking official of the level of the Datong prefect, was very clear about the truth that he knew people and faces.

Some people are like this, they can keep their duties when they are poor, but once they are developed, they begin to reveal their true nature.

Maybe this is the case with the British King Zhu Han, when he fought the country in the past, Zhu Han was able to restrain his greed.

Now that the Ming Dynasty has settled on the Central Plains, Bingfeng has almost crushed the world.

At this time, maybe Zhu Han feels that the great cause has been accomplished, and he will no longer restrain his true thoughts.

But what about now?

The British King Zhu Han in front of him, who seems to be for the country and the people, and dedicated to the public, is a little too different from his impression, right?

How do you look at it, this person doesn't look like the kind of person who doesn't care about the lives of the people for the sake of money?

And so on does not seem to be the case, although he shows that he is very concerned about the disaster, but the words of His Royal Highness the King are indeed quite unreliable.

He said that his students had brought something that would alleviate the drought, so that he could gather the blacksmiths of Datong.

Summoning a blacksmith, that means this kind of thing should be a tool, right?

But the problem is that what is lacking in Datong now is not tools, but water!

No matter how delicate the things you make, no matter how delicate the things you make, you can't make water from things made of iron, right?

It's related to blacksmiths, and it's something that is only made.

The only thing Wu Zhen could think of was whether King Zhu Han was planning to make a batch of Buddha statues or something, so that it could rain in the autumn of the heavens?

No matter what, when he saw him for the first time, Wu Zhen felt that His Royal Highness the King in front of him was unreliable. ’

The reason why he cares so much about the disaster is mostly pretended

As for Zhu Hantang, a prince, why should he pretend to care so much about the disaster-stricken people in Datong......

Wu Zhen felt that it was probably because of the high price of grain.

His Royal Highness should feel that his reputation has been damaged, so he wants to improve his reputation.

I don't know if His Royal Highness understands that he is doing this is a blind man's electric light in vain.

As long as the price of this grain does not fall, there is no one in Datong who will not secretly curse all the ancestors of this prince and himself.

Even if the price of grain drops, people will not forget that King Zhu Han of England once took the initiative to raise the price of grain to four taels of silver and one stone.

Over the years, there have been many disturbances in Wu Zhen's mind, and he has lost his temper for a while.

Zhu Han didn't know that the prefect of Datong in front of him was slandering himself in his heart.

Of course, even if you know, you won't care.

Since this price was formulated, Zhu Han has been mentally prepared for his reputation

Seeing that Wu Zhen was stunned, Zhu Han angrily exchanged him and said, "Wu Governor's Mansion, Wu Governor's Mansion?"

Zhu Han shouted several times in a row, and Wu Zhen came back to his senses.

I found myself out of shape in front of the King of England.

Wu Zhen, who was already sweating, suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

He hurriedly remedied: "The prince has every opportunity, and he still cares so much about the people of Datong, and he is a golden person, and he personally came to Datong to share weal and woe with the people of Datong, and go down to the official ...... Xiaguan ......"

As he spoke, Wu Zhen cried excitedly.

Moreover, this guy blew up his eyes and really squeezed out a few tears.

Zhu Han was amazed, and couldn't help complaining: "The acting skills are a little exaggerated, let's practice more in the future."

The reason why he pretended to cry was really because Wu Zhen was still a little embarrassed.

As far as Zhu Han's performance just now, Wu Zhen really couldn't find any words to pat Zhu Han's ass.

I can only say nothing, all in tears.

"Governor Wu, your mood is clear to this king. As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, the people of the Ming Dynasty are just like my children. ”

"Isn't it natural for parents to care about their children?"

"The prince is wise." Wu Zhen was truly speechless.

I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such shameless.

What did you do that you forgot all about it so quickly?

I can't wait to slap Zhu Han a few times before I am willing.

Zhu Han didn't bother to continue to talk to Wu Zhenxu and the snake.

Although the whole Datong is now, it is estimated that no one believes Zhu Han.

However, Zhu Han did come to relieve the disaster.

And before arriving in Datong, Zhu Han was already prepared.

The price of grain for four taels of silver and one stone is one of them, and the other is naturally something that his student has researched.

To be honest, when that student put the things he got out in front of Zhu Han.

Zhu Han was taken aback, and even had some doubts about whether this guy would also be a traverser.

"Palace Jade Liquor?"

"Odd and even the same?"

"Egg-laying roosters?"

After a series of questions, Zhu Han could finally determine that this guy was indeed not a traverser.

He is still in the Huangzhuang, a student who doesn't act much.

Although this guy is not young, he is one of the last students to enter Huangzhuang.

This person's surname is Fang, and the four characters of Yunlong, Fenghu are the last.

His full name is Fang Hubin.

This person is of average level among all the students in Huangzhuang, and belongs to the kind of person who doesn't have much impression of Zhu Han.

But even Zhu Han didn't expect that such a person would bring him a huge surprise this time.

The full name of the thing made by Fang Hubin is called a lever water press.

Older rural children have generally seen this thing.

As long as you press the lever above, you can quickly pump water up from the ground.

For future generations, this is already something that is almost obsolete.

But if this thing is placed in Daming, it is properly high-tech.

Although Wu Zhen felt that Zhu Han was very unreliable.

However, he did not dare to disobey Zhu Han's orders.

Dare to go against His Royal Highness, don't you want to mix in officialdom in the future?

Zhu Han refused the so-called reception banquet and threw himself into the disaster relief work as soon as possible.

Although before arriving in Datong, Zhu Han had already learned about some of the situation in Datong through Wu Zhen's recital and Jinyiwei's investigation.

However, after fully understanding the situation in Datong, Zhu Han's heart was still extremely heavy.

This time, the disaster is too serious.

Zhu Han can be 100% sure that Datong has never suffered such a serious drought in history.

The only thing to be thankful for is because of the high-priced strategy he had previously developed.

Almost all grain stores in Datong now do not restrict the sale of grain, but sell them openly.

After all, such a high price is like grabbing money, and those who don't sell it are fools.

And even with such a high price of grain, those grain shops are also doing a booming business.

The ten businessmen selected by Zhu Han before also began to exert their strength.

They used all their strength to desperately deliver food to Datong.

Among them, the Liu family, where Liu Ping'an is located, is the first to benefit as the head snake.

After all, in addition to the local grain merchants, the only way for grain merchants from other places to enter Datong is through them.

The Liu family didn't even need to do anything, they could make a lot of money by directly buying grain at the border of Datong and selling it to grain merchants in Datong.

The grain of other Yanjing grain merchants can arrive in Datong in two or three days at most.

The most troublesome food problem in the event of drought has now been resolved.

Without a food crisis, the rest would be much easier.

Zhu Han directly waved his hand: "Recruitment."

Although the railway on the Datong side has begun to be repaired, the progress has not been very fast due to various reasons.

Now, the number of people has been directly expanded tenfold.
