In this way, the courtyard is there, so that it is also convenient to store food, if it is placed in the mansion and is known by the old lady Shi, I am afraid that it will be another bloody storm.

Jin Xilan instructed Songmi, "Go back today, you pick some reliable strong men, prepare a few more carts, and go to Liuchen Store with me tomorrow to settle the account and send the rice to Nanyuan." ”

Even though Songmi had many questions in her heart, she didn't ask half a point. Then he obediently responded.

Jin Xilan was awakened by a nightmare tonight, she gasped for breath, and stroked the fierce and vigorous heart.

She didn't know what was going on lately, and she had nightmares for a few days.

Jin Xilan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, got up and drank a saliva, put on a fox fur casually, and looked at the scene of Yuzhu Garden with the hazy moonlight.

She remembered the famine in her previous life, when the displaced people had already been forced to lose their humanity, and there were riots and looting due to poor governance.

People are forced to do something.

Now that she has bought a house and has rice, she still needs some people to control it to avoid some homeless restlessness.

"Miss Jin hasn't slept yet?"

Suddenly, a familiar voice interrupted Jin Xilan's thoughts.

"How did General Shi get here?" Jin Xilan was obviously taken aback.

Seeing Jin Xilan looking at Shi Du with puzzled eyes, Shi Du explained: "I can't sleep either, I came out for a walk, and I came over unconsciously, and it just so happened that this is not." ”

As soon as Jin Xilan saw Shi Dusk, he recalled the appearance of him protecting her behind him in the harem that day, and couldn't help blushing when he thought of it.

In his previous and present lives, in addition to his father's love for her, although Twilight was not favored, he was also very kind to her.

She pulled the topic and said: "The general still has to rest early, it's cold outside, last time I checked the general's pulse, and the weakness of the pulse is the manifestation of qi deficiency." ”

Shi Du nodded, it happened that Jin Xilan thought that he was born in the battlefield and was a general, and his people were only afraid that all of them were superb in martial arts, and it was best to borrow some people from him.

She hesitated, not knowing how to speak.

Seeing her hesitation, Shi Du asked, "Miss Jin, what do you want to say to me?" ”

Jin Xilan nodded and said, "I bought a house in the South Garden, North Garden, and East Garden, and I want to borrow some manpower from the general to patrol and take care of it." ”

Jin Xilan didn't say at the same time that there was a lot of food stored in it, but he was afraid that it was really difficult to explain

She defended: "You can rest assured, I will definitely pay you back this money." ”

Shi Du smiled a little: "Okay, tomorrow I will ask Du Zhong to find some capable ones for you to use, what to borrow or not, since I will hand over the Shi family to you, you don't need to ask me about these." ”

Jin Xilan saw that he didn't ask, but saved an excuse. Ying Xia said: "The Shifu also needs to add more manpower, but I am afraid that it will bother the general again." ”

She was afraid that the number of homeless people would increase and she would break into the house to grab things, and it was always a good thing to take precautions.

Shi Du asked: "The house has been unstable recently?" ”

Jin Xilan shook his head: "That's not true, it's just that I still want to add more manpower to protect my safety." ”

The twilight should fall.

Seeing Shi Du like this, Jin Xilan wanted to do this, but at the same time, she had to make a noise, after all, she was also looking for his person, and he would know it when he pulled it over and asked, but it was not as good as him to say it clearly.

She said: "I looked at the weather and was afraid that there would be floods, so I bought a deserted house to store food. ”

Shi Du was surprised and said, "How do you know the vision?" ”

Jin Xilan categorically couldn't talk to him about the absurd remarks of his previous life.

"When there is nothing to do, there is a lot of research on these things, and in the middle of October, it is easy to have some floods, so it is also in case of emergency, if nothing happens, if there is this food, it will be enough for more than a few years."

Shi Du nodded as if he didn't understand.

A gust of cold wind swept over, Jin Xilan wrapped the fox fur on her body tightly, she yawned, and at the same time said with her armrest: "The general rests earlier, I will retreat first." ”

Shi Du looked at Jin Xilan's departing figure in a daze, until the figure became smaller and smaller and disappeared in front of his eyes.

The sunrise is about to dawn, and Jin Xilan took Youru pine honey to the Liuchen store early in the morning.

A group of people were in the soup, and the owner of the Liuchen shop hurriedly invited her in when he saw Jin Xilan.

"Ma'am, are you here so early today?" After speaking, he handed over a cup of tea.

Jin Xilan took it and said: "Well, these are silver taels, you can do the math, I will bring someone to take it away." ”

As he spoke, the little servant opened the two boxes of sandalwood silver boxes full of silver ingots, and the proprietor couldn't help but have a golden glow in his eyes when he looked at it.

He didn't take it to heart, after all, who would buy so much rice for no reason, but he didn't expect to be really rich.

What's more, he didn't have the food ready.

He couldn't help but look at Jin Xilan's seemingly weak appearance and moved his mind.

I'm going to hit her hard.

He smiled wryly, pretended to count the coins, and then pretended to be calm and exclaimed, "Ah, madam, I'm afraid you don't have enough money." ”

"Why didn't you bring enough?"

She brought it as she said yesterday.

"200 Wen per stone, a total of ......"

Youru couldn't help but exclaim on the side: "Dongjia, didn't you say 80 wen per stone yesterday, why do you want to temporarily increase the price today?" ”

The proprietor glared at Youru with a gloomy face, and said in a deep voice: "Girl, it's not a mistake, the rice grain of the Liuchen store has always been 200 wen per stone. ”

"200 wen per stone? Why don't you go and grab the money? Yesterday, it was clearly said that it was 80 per stone, how can there be such a sudden increase in price in Kyoto? And more than tripled, aren't you overtly bullying people? Master go, let's not buy it, buy it elsewhere. Youru yelled at the proprietor as she closed the two boxes of money.

When the proprietor saw that the fat sheep in his mouth was about to be gone, his gloomy face changed.

He looked at Jin Xilan with angry eyebrows and a hideous face, which was completely different from the flattering appearance at the beginning: "Madam, I will keep you out of the Liuchen shop, and there is no rice store in Kyoto that will sell grain to you." ”

Jin Xilan's slender fingers tapped the eaves of the table unhurriedly, and his tone was cool: "Since this is the case, the owner wants to do business like this, then we will not accompany him." ”

Jin Xilan left with people, and the owner spat at their backs.

As expected, Jin Xilan went to other rice shops, and when she saw that it was her, she closed her door and did not do this business.

Something's wrong.

Later, I learned that this Liuchen shop was the largest rice shop in Kyoto, and almost all the nearby millet shops were monopolized, and the owner scattered the news again, so those people didn't dare to offend the Liuchen shop, so they naturally didn't dare to do Jin Xilan's business.

"Master, this Liuchen shop is too dark-hearted, it has more than tripled, and these rice shops are not willing to sell rice to us, what should we do now?" Youru said indignantly.
