Chapter 64 Ask for help

Chen Yun and Xu Jian stood on the high-walled flat floor and looked into the distance, and they counted the copper coins in the warehouse for a long time.

This made them relax a little, and one of the boxes was old money from decades ago.

Chen Yun did not make any mistakes in the process of income and expenditure in ordinary times, and the old money should have been put into the treasury by Zheng Ying.

Zheng Ying didn't have time to tell her, maybe it was a little test for her.

As a hostess who manages the housework, you have to deal with various problems in the house.

The two women stood on the high wall and flat tower for a long time, waiting for the night to fall.

Unable to see their surroundings any longer, they went back to their rooms to rest.

In the early morning of the next day, the slaves and maids in the house reported something to Chen Yunyu.

Chen Yun heard that some of her clans had come to the Red Marquis Kingdom and wanted to visit the Red Marquis.

Chen Yun wasn't sure if those people were from his clan, they came from Henan County.

What are they doing when they don't stay in their ancestral homeland and come all the way around?

If they seek the help of the Red Marquis, then they have found the wrong person.

The servants and maids of the Honghou Mansion told them that the Honghou went to the Chu State to sweep the tombs and worship the ancestors.

The person in charge of the mansion is the fiancΓ©e of the Red Marquis, and it is really necessary to tell them this.

The Chen clan asked to see Chen Yun and wanted her to give them some help.

Chen Yun listened to the slave's briefing, and couldn't help frowning.

Her Langjun has not been at home recently, and she can't make the decision to arrange for them to live in Honghou Mansion without permission.

If they were really her people, they couldn't ignore it.

Let's talk to the people and find out about the situation in my hometown.

There was a drought in Henan County last year, and this year it won't be another disaster.

The Chen clan is also a big clan in Henan County, but most of them are not doing well.

They may have heard that Chen Yun married into the Honghou Mansion, so they came here to ask for help.

It's hard for them, give them food and water.

This can still be done by the Lord, if you rent them the land, or lend them money.

I'm afraid this won't work, although Liu Zhang and Zheng Ying left the affairs of the mansion to him before leaving.

There are some things that he has to be very cautious about, and he doesn't have much contact with those people.

Isn't this embarrassing for him, Chen Yun asked the maidservant girl to bring one of his clansmen over.

The maidservant also told him that a young woman had come to visit.

There are also representatives of the people of the Honghou State who ask the Honghou to help them solve the problem of inferior copper coins, and the government can't control this.

Because the origin of copper coins is unknown, the number of copper coins in circulation is huge.

Isn't it normal for local governments to feel that there are a small number of inferior copper coins?

Chen Yun gently rubbed her temples, there are a lot of things going on today.

So many people are going to see her, so let's meet them.

Chen Yun asked the maidservant to bring the young woman over and hear what he had to say.

In addition, he arranged meals for his people, and it was inconvenient to arrange for them to live in the Honghou Mansion.

She didn't want to make the Honghou Mansion uneasy, and she was very unhappy when her Langjun came back.

In case he gets angry, he gives her a break.

She lost her support, and she has always been cautious.

The maidservant brought Liu Zhengchen over, and she has been in the Honghou Kingdom for a while.

Liu Zhengchen had been observing, and felt that Honghou could help her.

She saw that there was no one else around, and it was necessary to explain her identity to Chen Yun.

"Madame Honghou, it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Liu Zhengchen and I am from Guangling, Jiangdu Kingdom. ”

"Oh, what is your relationship with King Jiangdu?" Chen Yun asked.

"She is my eldest brother, and I came to the Red Marquis Country. Just to avoid him, I hope Honghou can give me some help. ”

Liu Zhengchen will give Honghou some remuneration, and Liu Jian will definitely send people around to look for her in the past few days.

"Why do you think we're helping you? He sent people to assassinate me Langjun many times. ”

As soon as this was mentioned, Chen Yun was very angry.

Chen Yun couldn't wait to kill Liu Jian with his own hands, but he hadn't sent anyone to assassinate him recently.

Maybe Liu Jian is still brewing more vicious plans, which makes her worry every day.

"I hate him too, he used to torture me. It left me with a nightmare that I couldn't erase, so I avoided him. ”

Liu Zhengchen bit his lip angrily, he really wanted to never see him for the rest of his life.

"How can we help you? We have a deep grudge against him. ”

"When I have the opportunity, let you send me to Chang'an. I will be grateful, and only you can help me. ”

Presumably, Liu Jian must be waiting on the way to Chang'an, so she has not dared to go to Chang'an alone.

"My Langjun has something to go out, you can live in Honghou Mansion first. But I can't tell others my identity, everything will wait for my Langjun to come back. ”

Chen Yun looked at Liu Zhengchen with a hint of hatred in his eyes, this was definitely not aimed at her Langjun.

I heard Liu Zhengchen say just now that he was tortured by Liu Jian, which should be true.

There are still some vacant rooms in Honghou Mansion, so it's no problem to arrange for her to stay.

"Thank you for letting me stay, I will give gold as a reward later, and I can't live in the Honghou Mansion for nothing."

"You don't have to give it first, wait until my Langjun comes back."

arranged food and accommodation for Liu Zhengchen, Chen Yun was still able to be the master.

After arranging everything, let the guards go and bring the representatives of the Chen clan over.

Since it's her clansmen, she has to arrange it for them.

It can not harm the interests of her Langjun, but also take care of the clansmen.

The representative of the Chen clan followed the guards to the living room, and Chen Yun sat in the main seat on the north.

seems to be a hostess in charge, during this time, Liu Zhang and Zheng Ying are not at home.

She is in charge of the affairs of the family, which is also a test for her.

A middle-aged man approached him, his name was Chen Yan.

Chen Yun knew him, he was the patriarch of the Chen family in Henan County.

The status and rights of the clan elders are second only to the patriarchs, and most of the clansmen live in Yiyang County.

Even the clan elders came, which means that the Chen clan has encountered great difficulties.

Chen Yun couldn't use the property of the Honghou Mansion just because his people were in great difficulty.

"Patriarch, you are here in person. Is there something going on in Yiyang? ”

Hopefully, the situation isn't as bad as she thinks, and she'll help her people as much as she can.

"There was a drought in Henan County, and our people offended people, and the good land and homestead were confiscated by the government. Alas......"

Chen Yan sighed, they are in this vein. Without a strong support, it is difficult to gain a foothold in Henan County.

Chen Yun didn't know if what he said was true, but there was indeed a severe drought in most parts of the Central Plains.

Since last year, many people have come from the Central Plains, but this year there has been another drought.

This also made people not live, and Chen Yun sympathized with their misfortune.

"Clan Elder, I have some savings in my hands, so I can only do my best to help you. You'll have to figure out the rest. ”

Chen Yun picked up the small wooden box on the desk, here is the 15,000 money she has accumulated in the past two years.

There are also some valuable jewelry given to her by Liu Zhang, and she only kept a golden hairpin inlaid with jade lotus.

This is the first gift Liu Zhang gave him, and this hairpin cannot be given to others.

The first gift was very meaningful to her, and she did not use the treasures of the treasury.

"I have fifteen thousand dollars here, plus hand jewelry. It's worth five thousand dollars, and that's all I can do for you. ”

Chen Yun stood up and brought the small wooden box to Chen Yan.

The prices of the Red Marquis are not very high, and they can live here for a while.

The price of a stone of corn is 150 yuan, not counting the price of jewelry.

You can also buy a hundred stone of corn, if you buy it here.

Medium fields cost 5,000 yuan per mu, and high-quality fields don't think about it.

The fine fields were worth between 10,000 and 15,000 yuan, and there was no surplus land to rent to them.

The high-quality fields owned by the Red Marquis were given by the imperial court and could not be traded.

"Clan Elder, you know. I'm just Lang Jun's fiancΓ©e, and there are some things I can't completely decide. ”

Chen Yun also has to consider his own interests, if he uses the money and goods of the Honghou Mansion to help them.

Then she may fall out of favor and lose her support.

Then she will have a worse life in the future, and the clansmen will not help her much.

She couldn't let her people starve, and she had already given most of her savings to them.

"I also know your difficulties, but there are many people. We moved here with all the difficulty, and we didn't even have a decent place to live. ”

"You can discuss with the nearby villagers and let them rent a house for you to live in, and the clansmen can find work nearby."

"Yun'er, I can only put down my face. Please do me a favor, you are also the head of the Honghou Mansion. ”

After hearing this, Chen Yun shook his head slightly. She understood what Chen Yao meant, which was to lend money or rent land to them.

"Clan Elder, don't embarrass me. I wrote to Lang Jun and waited for him to reply before making a decision. ”

This is also the best way, Liu Zhang studied at the Chu Society Academy.

He couldn't come back for a long time, so Chen Yun wrote to him.

Send someone to deliver the letter, and it will be decided in a few days.

Besides, these people are young and strong, and it is not that they cannot find work.

Even when her people were dissatisfied with her decision, she still stood by her principles.
