Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 476 Raising Food and Grass

Chapter 476 Raising Food and Grass
Eunuch Ye was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

As we all know, the best thing to appease the victims is food, and then other follow-up work such as arable land and houses.

But what Ye Xun never expected was that after the imperial envoy's order to adjust the grain was issued, except for a little grain in the warehouse of the Chongqing government, the other prefectures in central Sichuan had no food to adjust.

Shuzhong has always been known as the land of abundance, and it has never suffered any famine before, so how could there be no food?

Ye Xun ordered Zhuge Xiu, the governor of Chengdu, to come to see him as soon as possible. What Ye Xun didn't expect was that the governor Zhuge suddenly fell ill.

Standing at the top of the city, looking at the endless camp of victims outside the city, and looking at those victims with pale faces, Ye Xun suddenly wanted to kill someone.

The food in the city is limited. If Qin Liangyu hadn’t understood Ye Xun’s difficulties and shipped a batch of food as quickly as possible, the victims outside the city might really go hungry. But for more and more victims, that little food is just a drop in the bucket , I'm afraid I won't be able to survive even three days.

Looking at Ye Xun who was frowning tightly, Qin Yiming comforted him: "Elder-in-law, don't worry too much. Mother has already dispatched food from everywhere, and there should be another batch of food delivered soon."

Ye Xun didn't know what he thought of, so he suddenly smiled and said, "Always remember, you can't be too honest, or you will be bullied."

Without waiting for Qin Yiming's reaction, he turned to Liu Ping and said, "Put up a notice in the city that all wealthy gentry in the city must donate grain to the government. The basis is thousands of dens. Those who don't have so much grain at home can also use money instead. If they are willing to deliver food, the officers and soldiers will no longer be responsible for their safety, and the food must be delivered before noon tomorrow."

Chongqing is the second largest city in Sichuan after Chengdu, and there are also rich and wealthy people here. If it is said that these people have no food in their homes, Ye Xun would not believe it if he was killed.

There was no delay in helping the victims, so Ye Xun could only focus on these people.

Seeing that Liu Ping was still hesitant, Ye Xun turned his head to look at Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming brothers, and said with a smile: "This is an offending job, do you two brothers have the guts to do it?"

Chongqing was not within the Qin family's sphere of influence, and the two brothers of the Qin family were also full-blooded masters. Now that Ye Xun was backing them up, there was nothing to worry about, so they immediately agreed.

Liu Ping hurriedly said: "Eunuch forgive me, it's not because the general will delay on purpose, but in this way, I'm afraid I will make many enemies for Eunuch!"

"Enemies? Hehe! How are these people compared to the emperor's relatives? General Liu, do you want to raise your official position, or just continue to be mediocre? It all depends on your guts."

Ye Xun's words hit home, and Liu Ping was not stupid, so he still couldn't understand what Ye Xun meant, and he also understood that even if Ye Xun left, he would already have Ye Xun's mark on him. If he couldn't rely on the big tree Ye Xun, sooner or later he would be suppressed by his colleagues in Sichuan.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, clasped his fist at Ye Xun, and took the Qin family brothers away quickly.

Looking at the backs of the few people going away, a cold smile flashed across Ye Xun's mouth. Before, he always wanted to get along with the officials and gentry in Sichuan, but now it seems that he still took it for granted.

Back at the government office, before he had time to take a sip of water, a guard came to report that Qian Qianyi begged to see him.

Hearing that it was Qian Qianyi who came, Ye Xun couldn't help being taken aback. This guy entered Sichuan a long time earlier than himself, but he didn't accomplish anything. He was so busy during this time that he almost forgot about him.

I ordered someone to pass on Qian Qianyi. I heard that this guy was eating and drinking at Governor Zhuge Xiu's house before, and I don't know if this guy can provide something useful.

It wasn't long before Qian Qianyi appeared outside the hall with a face full of shame. He didn't see him for more than a month. This guy seemed to have gained a lot of weight, and he seemed to be having a good time here.

As soon as he entered the door, Qian Qianyi bowed to the ground without raising his head and said: "The student has seen Eunuch Ye."

"It turned out to be Mr. Qian, hehe! I haven't seen you for a long time. The water and soil in the middle of Sichuan really nourish people. Mr. Qian is now white and fat."

"Grandpa Ye made fun of it. The students can't see the King of Shu, and they have nothing to do, so, so this."

So for a long time, nothing came out, but Ye Xun didn't want to hear him make up stories.

"What happened to Zhuge Xiu? Has he lived enough?"

Listening to Ye Xun's question about his old friend, Qian Qianyi hurriedly cheered up and said, "My father-in-law doesn't know about it. Brother Zhuge is indeed suffering from a hidden illness, otherwise he would have come to visit his father-in-law long ago. The students are anxious to come to greet him, and they are also entrusted by brother Zhuge." , to express my apology to my father-in-law.”

It’s a good thing that a person has a hidden disease, and he doesn’t get sick early or late, but Lao Tzu gets sick as soon as he comes. Do you think Lao Tzu is a three-year-old child?

With a cold smile, he said: "Since you are sick, you should take good care of it at home! I have already asked you to resign him from the post of governor, how about it! Is Mr. Qian interested?"

Qian Qianyi was taken aback. These days, he cannibalize others and live in others, but in turn snatches their official positions. If the news spreads, he will not be fooled.

He hurriedly said: "My father-in-law was joking, how can a student be a governor? A student will be satisfied if he can be a scribe next to his father-in-law."

Ye Xun doesn't believe that this guy is not interested in such a big official position as the governor, it's just that he can't open his mouth, but Ye Xun didn't lie to Qian Qianyi about dismissing Zhuge Xiu, not only that, Ye Xun also passed on a letter to Tian Ergeng , sent Jinyi Weisuo to capture Zhuge Xiu.

Although he knew that it was Zhu Fengquan who was stumbling behind him, but Ye Xun couldn't deal with him now, so he could only start with the people around him.

He smiled lightly and said, "In that case, Mr. Qian, please go back!"

"this."

Qian Qianyi didn't want to leave or stay for a while, he was a guy who could stab his friends twice at critical moments.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Since the father-in-law is so fond of you."

Before finishing speaking, Ye Xun raised his hand and interrupted him, only to hear Ye Xun say indifferently: "If you agreed to it just now, this guild will happily recommend you to the imperial court, but your hesitation also made you lose money." This opportunity, but I don’t want to waste your talent, how about it! I’m short of food now, if you can help me raise [-] deniers of food and grass in a short time, I will still hand over the position of governor of Chengdu to you. you"

Qian Qianyi's heart was like riding a roller coaster, going up and down for a while, and Ye Xun almost made him mentally ill.

After Ye Xun finished speaking, he couldn't help showing a look of embarrassment on his face, and said, "Elder-in-law, one hundred thousand deniers of food, this, this is too much?"

"Do it or not, it's up to you"

As Ye Xun spoke, he picked up the tea bowl, and the attendants behind him immediately shouted: "See off!"

It's impossible to find cheap money from Ye Xun, and Ye Xun can see that this Qian Qianyi is a boss who is always in trouble, don't look at how close he is to him now, once the King of Shu gains power, this guy will definitely be the first It's a betrayal, so you might as well take advantage of it first, if you can get food, you won't use him.
