"Hundreds of thousands of stones is not too much to be charged into the treasury, but under normal circumstances, it is already a very large amount." After quickly flipping through the account book, Feng Qingbai said.
"Now it is hundreds of thousands of stones, and I will be able to turn over one or two next year, and there will be more in the next year. Wait, and my second brother will surprise you in the future." Liu Zhiqiu folded his arms, so proud.
"With your temperament as a miser, you can donate food for free, so why is it so unbelievable?"
"Grass, your second brother, I also have a passionate heart, but I don't take it out under normal circumstances."
What does it mean to be so unbelievable? Think he wants to be so generous? If Feng Qingbo is not the Nanling King, Nunnun is not the Nanling Princess, and Xiao Feng'er is not the Nanling Emperor, he is in charge of the treasury to die
Seeing that the convoy called by Feng Qingbai took the grain out of the granary, his heart was bleeding, okay
It's just that he keeps money and keeps the money he deserves. He never takes a star or a half against outsiders.
He only took his own people.
Looking at the pretending man, Feng Qingbai's lips lightly raised, and he took out a few silver notes from his arms, "This is fifty thousand taels. Your food will be collected by the court at half the market price."
Liu Zhiqiu's eyeballs bulged, and he quickly picked up the bank note and put it into his arms, "Oh, what a shame, you said it was donated to the treasury, you actually hit me with silver, you deserve to be a good brother!"
"Good brother, do you want to pay me back?"
"I have no regrets, although I am happy to ask me to donate for free, but it is not my style to have money not to take it, miser, you know." Liu Zhiqiu naturally accepted the nickname of miser. "However, this silver is yours. Is it from Xiaofenger? Or from the treasury?"
"What's the difference?"
"If you and Xiao Feng'er came out, I'm afraid grandma will tell me to return." Let him return, it is better to not give it to him at first, so that his heart will not hurt again.
Feng Qingbai rubbed his eyebrows, and now he can't harden his heart not only for Shengsheng, but also for anyone in the Liu Family Courtyard, "It came from the court. Nanling has not yet reached the point where the mountains and rivers need to search for silver and grain from the people. In addition, you have already done a good job on tenant leasing, and it didn't take long for you to donate food free of charge. In the eyes of other food merchants, you just made them feel bad, and you will soon become a target of public criticism, which is not good for you. "
Liu Zhiqiu is not stupid, of course he knows what Feng Qingbai means.
Before the tenants rented, he reduced the rent by 30%, which has harmed the interests of many people, and now many eyes are staring at him secretly. If he turns around and donates food again, he will naturally have a reputation, but he will also offend people.
If he is a bachelor, he is naturally not afraid, not to mention that there are so many backers behind him.
But he is not a bachelor. He has a family, a wife and an old man. It is hard to guarantee that no one will be forced to jump over the wall and attack the family instead.
At that time, no matter how big the backing is, it's useless.
It seems that if you want to do something good in the future, you still need to think carefully about how you can not involve your family in it.
"If there is grain in the future, or half price?"
"Well, unless the treasury is empty, borders or places are tight, there will always be times when you are free."
Liu Zhiqiu pouted, he actually didn't want to appear at that time. Isn't it even if you have money? And if the country really asks for free, it means that Nanling has been shaken by storm.
"Eh, you have read those ledgers once you have read them? Didn't you check them carefully?"
"No need." Feng Qingbai got up and walked towards the hall.
He sat here, saying that it was a reconciliation, but in fact it was just walking through the scene. He didn't have the slightest doubt about Liu Zhiqiu.
If even Liu Zhiqiu can't trust him, then his eyes are pure decorations.
When the two arrived in the hall, the atmosphere was even more lively than before.
If the empress dowager only needs to compete with Liu Muqiu by herself, then now she is facing a joint fight between her husband and wife, and the pressure is greatly increased.
Fortunately, the two beans competed and stayed at the feet of the Queen Mother from start to finish, unwavering despite all kinds of temptations.
On the other side, Wei Zi and Liu Ya have just arrived in Yuzhou.
If you travel by water, you can return to the farm in Yuzhou in seven or eight days, but when you get on the boat, Liu Ya'er says to transport the boat, and as a last resort, you should go by land.
It took more than 20 days to travel from Beijing to Yuzhou.
Wei Zi didn't say much about it, only gave the woman a meaningful look when she covered her head and said that she was seasick. When the woman's small eyes wandered uneasy, she looked away and got into the car silently.
So for the next twenty days, the woman often chuckles with herself thinking that no one notices it.
When the carriage entered Yuzhou, it would reach Fangyuan County in two days, and it would only take more than half an hour for Fangyuan County to reach the farm.
"Uncle Wei, I'm hungry." Holding her belly, Liu Ya lowered her head in a pitiful voice.
Then he heard the man say to the coachman, "Stop over there and eat."
Liu Ya quickly calculated in her heart. It takes about half an hour from the time the meal is served to the end of the meal. If she eats more slowly, it is okay to delay a moment, then Uncle Wei can accompany her for more than half an hour. .
It's only lunch now, and she eats slowly at dinner. Maybe Uncle Wei will stay at the farm for one night
"What are you thinking about?"
"I want you to stay at the farm for one night." I was immersed in my thoughts and heard the questioning Liu Ya subconsciously answered. After the reaction, his expression became lax, and he met the man's eyes in a daze.
Uncle Wei asked her just now
Why did she tell it
Why did you say it
"Yeah." The man was expressionless, laid out the food that Xiao Er had just brought up, picked up his chopsticks, "eat."
"Oh." With her small mouth half open, Liu Ya made a word and moved, her eyes continued to be dull.
Uncle Wei said um, um what
Do you respond to her words, or agree to stay at the farm for one night
Why is the mind so hard to guess? Liu Ya wanted to cry.
After eating a meal in silence, Liu Ya didn't dare to speak anymore, and even buried her head low when she was eating, almost buckling her head into the bowl.
However, when the meal ran out, it was nearly an hour after the meal was full, Liu Ya froze until he ate the hot dishes until he was air-conditioned.
And she feels very satisfied with this.
It was already late afternoon after dinner, and it was at least evening to return to the farm. Uncle Wei couldn't leave.
"Why should I stay for one night?"
"Huh?" The woman turned her head blankly and looked at him blankly.
Wei Ziqing closed his eyes. Among the many women he knows, this is the one who likes to be in a daze.
"Why should I stay for one night?" No problem, he was more patient.
After the question, he did not stare at the person urgently, but looked away to give the woman time and space to think about the answer.
Wait until she has the courage to say the answer, at least three breaths later.
