Seeing that it was Ye Hao coming, King Cheng'an went up to greet him enthusiastically.

"What is the reason Madame has come?"

Ye Hao had asked King Cheng'an to buy his land before, and there was no need to find too many reasons to mention it at this time.

"Recently, my weaving mill is in short supply, just because the source of goods is too far away from here, and it is not a way to buy goods for such a long time, so I think it is better to simply grow and accumulate raw materials by myself, which is more convenient and saves costs."

Ye Hao patiently explained, for fear that King Cheng'an would not understand.

"So I wonder if I can hire the surrounding villages to farm through the prince."

After all, she couldn't help but feel a little weak, after all, she had already bought a large piece of wasteland from King Cheng'an before, and this time she had to hire the surrounding villages, Ye Hao was afraid that he would feel embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, King Cheng'an's expression looked a little surprised, Ye Hao had already bought a large piece of wasteland outside the city before, and now he wants to buy land, and it is the land that hires the surrounding villages, I am afraid that it will be a little difficult.

"It seems that it is selling very well, and the business is booming, but what about the land that I originally bought, this king remembers that the land is very large."

King Cheng An couldn't help but be curious.

"The wasteland outside the city that I originally bought is still building houses for the girls, and there is no way to use it, so I came to ask the prince for help."

Ye Hao explained that this matter was handled by Steward Yue, and there was no need to hide it.

"So that's the case, I'm afraid this king is not very clear about this matter, the king of the surrounding villages is not able to manage every piece of land in every detail, this king will help you call the master of the Ministry of Agriculture of Chengpingzhou County, he knows every piece of land very well."

King Cheng An said, turning sideways slightly.

"Go and get the head of the Ministry of Agriculture."

He instructed the subordinates on the side, while motioning for Ye Hao and the others to go in and sit inside.

Inside, King Cheng'an ordered his subordinates to make a few cups of tea, and Xie Yunshu and Ye Hao sat down after saluting.

After waiting for a while, the chief secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture was invited.

"See the Lord."

The chief secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture knelt down and shook his hands.

"Get up."

"Yes."

The head secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture bowed and got up to face Xie Yunshu and Ye Hao.

Ye Hao explained the general situation to him, and asked if she could hire land for her to use.

"Madam, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult this time, although my subordinates know the land of the surrounding villages very well, but my subordinates have no right to control the use of these lands, and most of the use rights of these lands are in the hands of the families in the city, and it is generally difficult to hire them."

The head of the Ministry of Agriculture patiently explained and apologized.

Ye Hao couldn't help but be a little discouraged, after all, she couldn't think of any other way.

"In that case, it's going to trouble the prince."

Ye Hao saluted King Cheng'an and planned to leave.

"Wait, I almost forgot that this king also has a piece of land outside the city, it was a field that was cultivated a long time ago, but there is no one living around, so no one uses it now. However, the fertility of the land is still good, and it is more than enough for planting, and it has not been used for so long that the king has almost forgotten it. If you want, the king will give you that dozen acres of land."

King Cheng An was happy to help Ye Hao solve the current problem, and offered to hand over a piece of land that he had previously idle to the other party.

Ye Hao heard that there was still a turn for the better, and the original depressed expression suddenly became clear, and the frowning brows gradually eased, since there was a field to use, the price or anything was negotiable.

"I'm very grateful to the prince, I really relieved my 100,000 urgency, even if the price is raised, I can accept it."

Ye Hao's eyes were shining, and she could see that it was an extremely happy thing for her to be able to temporarily solve some of the urgent needs at the moment.

"Hahaha."

King Cheng An couldn't help laughing.

"We've known each other for so long, and we still need so many courtesies to do. If only this piece of land could solve it for you

trouble, but also the king is very pleased, although this land is not desolate, it is also an excellent land, but no one has ever used it."

King Cheng'an has always spoken so gently, exuding a kind atmosphere as usual.

"Originally, it was also a piece of land that no one used, so you can use it generously, don't say anything about the price."

King Cheng'an means that he plans to give her these dozen acres of land directly.

King Cheng'an has always had a city government, and the money for these ten acres of land is only a very small amount for him, not to mention that this land cannot be used in the first place, this time, Ye Hao owes him a favor again.

Although these dozen acres of land are not enough for Ye Zhen, it is already very good news.

Although King Cheng'an said that the dozen acres of land in his hand could be freely disposed of by Ye Hao, Ye Hao still felt that there were too few.

Thinking of this, Ye Hao couldn't help but show disappointment, but she still smiled and thanked King Cheng'an:

"Then I'll thank the prince first."

"If this is the case, if you want to talk about this, you will see the outside."

King Cheng An responded with a smile, he heard the meaning of the words, and responded very cooperatively.

After thanking her, Ye Hao prepared to say goodbye and leave.

Before Ye Hao left, the head of the Ministry of Agriculture said:

"It's not been peaceful lately, and the news of imminent war in the north has reached the south."

Recently, the north is not peaceful, Ye Hao knows.

There has always been turmoil, but it has been extremely rare in recent decades to cause a stir like this direct domestic war.

Not only that, but the people also suffered from the massive wars. People who are already poor are living in dire straits, displaced and have nowhere to escape.

A lot of land has also been wasted, and the entire town is in a state of darkness and anxiety because the economy has gradually fallen behind, and the shops on the streets have become dilapidated, and the whole town is in a state of darkness and anxiety.

In addition, the war needs soldiers, and seeing that the ranks of soldiers rushed to the people's homes in a hurry, without leaving a word of explanation, they arrested the main labor force of the family as strong men and went to the barracks, and there were more and more refugees.

On the way to escape, you can always meet people who are dying of hunger, they are begging on the side of the road, every time they see these pictures, the people who are also refugees can not stop and help them, and even can only drive by quickly, there are too many such people, even if they can save one, but they can't save countless people.

Thinking of this, Ye Hao's heart couldn't help but twitch.

Hearing the conversation between the head of the Ministry of Agriculture and Zhao Gaowei, Ye Hao no longer planned to leave, and wanted to continue to hear what they had to say.....

The chief secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture sighed and continued to speak:

"War is about to start in the north, and many people are fleeing to the south, and these powerful people are fighting here and there for their own rights, but these people are suffering......

As he spoke, he shook his head and sighed again at the thought of these fleeing people.

King Cheng'an also sighed, and echoed with a wry smile:

"Isn't it? There is no peace in this day of war!"

The master of the Ministry of Agriculture nodded, and continued:

"My subordinates heard the news from their subordinates that many people had fled to the south due to the war, and Chengpingzhou County, which is the gateway to Lingnan, also gathered a bunch of fleeing people outside the city gate."

"Those high-ranking officials and nobles in our county will not allow these refugees to enter the city!"

Zhao Gaowei couldn't help but be a little angry when he thought of this, and then sighed again.

When Ye Hao heard this, there was a thought flashing through her mind.....

There must be a lot of wealthy businessmen in Chengpingzhou County, and these refugees may not be able to get in! She could have given the refugees land to build houses and cultivate fields.

Thinking of this, Ye Hao couldn't help but smile lightly.

Isn't this a great opportunity to solve your own problems?

It's really the sky that lives up to me, the sky has no endless road, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village.

Ye Hao was excited when she thought of this, and changed what she had just done

Sullen face.

The refugees gathered at the gate in twos and threes, although there were not many of them, but they were also a group of people. The officers and soldiers defending the city did not have an order, and did not dare to act rashly, and directly let them into the city.

There are many wealthy businessmen in the city, and they are afraid that these homeless people will be hungry and barefoot, and they are not afraid to wear shoes, so they will rob and disturb the lives of the wealthy businessmen. It's not good to make a fuss then.

But at this time, the refugees gathered at the gate already looked impatient.

"Can you let us in?"

"Please, sir, do well, have mercy on us."

The refugees gathered at the gate of the city, and the sound of pleading was endless, but the officers and soldiers defending the city did not change half a point.

As long as the city doesn't give them the news to let them into the city, then these refugees won't be able to step into the city!

Most of the people who fled from the north were ordinary people from small villages, and when they heard that there was going to be war, they dragged their families and ran to the south.

It's not that they don't want to go to more fertile counties, and other people's land boundaries don't even let them step half a step!

Although you can't enter the city in Lingnan, you can rest outside the city.

Such news made Zhao Gaowei couldn't help frowning, and he couldn't come up with any solution for a while.

"Lord Wang, the number of refugees is still small at the moment, and they are only asking to enter the city when they gather at the gate of the city. But if it drags on like this, there will inevitably be *** if there are many people."

The chief secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture reminded Zhao Gaowei of the current situation, and today even if the other party does not take the initiative to summon him, he will have to come and report.

Refugees can be big or small, and if they are not handled well, it will be a crisis for the whole of Lingnan.

Speaking of which, as a native of Lingnan, the head of the Ministry of Agriculture is also resistant to these refugees entering the city.

In the past, people in other counties said that Lingnan was a barren land, and the bad water came out of the people, and all kinds of people looked down on.

Why can't you wait to run to them as soon as you fight?

Regarding the words of the master of the Ministry of Agriculture, Zhao Gaowei was very clear in his heart, and he had an idea after thinking about it for a long time.

But before he could speak, Ye Hao, who had been sitting next to him for a long time and hadn't spoken, suddenly interjected.

"It's really pitiful that the refugees are displaced here, but what the prince said is right, the wealthy businessmen living in Chengpingzhou County will definitely not agree to let them into the city. Let's not talk about whether this can be done or not, even if these refugees enter the city, it will be difficult for them to have a proper place."

"Madame's right to say."

The chief secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture nodded, agreeing with Ye Hao's statement.

"This king has thought of a way, it is better to arrange for these refugees to go to a nearby county town for resettlement."

This method can be regarded as the next strategy.

The people of Lingnan are already in poverty, and if a bunch of refugees affect their lives, wouldn't it add to the chaos?

What's more, as soon as the news came out, wouldn't it be that refugees from all over the country forgot to run there, but the number of people that a city can accommodate is limited, and when the time comes, it will be a group of people crowded at the door. It can only relieve the worries for a while.

Ye Hao's eyes flowed with autumn waves, and she said her thoughts directly.

"Why don't I pay for the land, so that they can cultivate it, have a place to live, and have a life of food and clothing, and live and work in peace and contentment. How?"

"It's great to be able to do this, Mrs. Xie is really kind."

King An Cheng said with a smile.
