Chapter 214 Benefit

 "How's it going? Has the grain issue been resolved?"

Because Commander Shen came to Xingzhou City, Yan Zhigao met in the city and didn't come back until the ship left. At this point, it happened to be the time to go to the Yamen, so he simply went back to the backyard.

Hearing Mrs. Li's question, she nodded first, and then asked: "Why does our daughter have so many grains in her hands?"

Mrs. Li was stunned for a moment.

Our daughter...

This is the first time that the master has mentioned his daughter in such an intimate tone.

Seeing that Mrs. Li didn't reply, Yan Zhigao said while changing his coat: "What are you doing standing there in a daze?"

Mrs. Li glanced at Yan Zhigao, stepped forward to help him organize his clothes, then shook her head and said with a smile: "That girl said, she is called to prepare for a rainy day, to be prepared, to have food in hand and not to panic. She said yes, even if there is a natural disaster, If there is a drought, she has food stored there, and our family will not be hungry."

As he spoke, he sighed.

"I think it was the last time I went to Linyi County with my mother that we endured a lot of hardships and became very hungry, so that girl liked to collect food."

Yan Zhigao's mind also pictured the appearance of his mother and several others dressed as beggars at the yamen gate of Linyi County.

At the beginning, I was only focused on the joy of being reunited with my mother. I didn’t think carefully about how they, old and young, escaped bandits along the way and how they begged for food along the way.

Seeing the distressed look on Mrs. Li's face, Yan Zhigao patted her hand: "Daohua is a very good girl. Mom is right. She is the lucky star of our family."

"In the past, although the young prince was relatively close to our family, it was just a playful friendship between a few children. I was always unsure."

"After all, there are too many people surrounding the young prince, and the children in our family are not irreplaceable. If a few more children appear who are more playful and trouble-making, they may be alienated by the young prince."< /p>

Hearing this, Mrs. Li was not happy: "Why can't our children be as good as other families? Wen Kai loves to make trouble, and Wen Tao is too kind, so they just let it go, but as for Wen Xiu and Dao Hua, you would say Say, how are you inferior to other children?"

Yan Zhigao looked helpless: "I'm not saying that the children in our family are not as good as those from other families. What I mean is that the relationship between people is not static."

"Look, the little prince is only fourteen years old now. It is the time when he loves to play, so he has attracted the attention of several noisy children in our family. But what about after two years? He has become more stable. , maybe we need different playmates.”

Mrs. Li did not refute this time.

Yan Zhigao persuaded his wife and continued the topic.

"But, after this grain and seed assistance, our family has a deeper friendship with the young prince and the Guo family behind him."

"I heard Mr. Dong mention it before that the banditry in Fenxi was very serious, and the emperor was very concerned about it. So after high-yielding grain seeds were produced, the first thing that came to mind was Fenxi. As long as the people had enough to fill their stomachs, they would naturally not follow.

Go and cause banditry."

"With the loss of grain, the people will no longer be able to survive. If this leads to an even greater banditry, Governor Guo will not be punished lightly."

"We can be considered as saving Governor Guo's life."

Listening to Yan Zhigao's analysis, Mrs. Li had a deeper understanding of the matter, nodded, and then did not forget to express her gratitude to her daughter: "All this is thanks to Daohua."

Yan Zhigao smiled and said: "Yes, yes, I didn't say no."

Mrs. Li sighed: "I hope this batch of grain will arrive smoothly. In this way, the people of Fenxi will have hope, and the master will also have political achievements."

Yan Zhigao nodded: "Yes, it is the people who suffer from natural and man-made disasters after all."

......

Zhongzhou Provincial Government Wharf.

Looking at the grains being transported to Fenxi, Dong Jiancheng also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the grain issue has nothing to do with him, if the banditry in Fenxi cannot be solved, Zhongzhou, as a neighboring province, will not have an easy time.

If nothing else, just saying that the influx of refugees is a headache for him. Not to mention the possible instability in public security.

It must be delivered safely this time!

In any case, high-yield grain crops came from his rule. If the banditry in Fenxi was alleviated, he would also have a share of the credit.

These days, no one would be dissatisfied with having too much credit.

"Dad, the young prince will take us to the Commander's Campus later, and then we will return to the academy from there, not to the mansion." Dong Yuanxuan ran over and talked to his father about their future arrangements.

Dong Jiancheng looked at the young prince who was joking with the three young masters of the Yan family in the distance, and his eyes flashed: "Go."

Dong Jiancheng sighed after his eldest son ran away.

The Yan family is really lucky.

First, he accidentally saved the young prince, and now he has done such a big favor to Governor Guo. The friendship between the two parties will definitely become deeper and deeper in the future.

Look, didn’t they take the three young masters of the Yan family to command the envoy?

The Fourth Young Master Yan and the Third Young Master Yan are on the path of martial arts, and they will definitely have to deal with the Command and Envoy Department in the future. Contacting them early will broaden their horizons, avoid detours, and expand their connections.

Not even my own son has received this kind of treatment.

......

The main peak of Wuhua Mountain is Meilin Villa.

"Master, the grain has been transported successfully."

A man in black knelt on one knee. In front of him, Guo Ruomei sat with an indifferent expression: "Have all the secret escorts been arranged?"

The man in black nodded: "Everything has been arranged, and food will never be robbed again."

Guo Ruomei's eyes narrowed slightly: "The best thing is this. Go down and follow the grain transport team. If anything happens, send a message immediately."

"Yes."

After the man in black left, Mei Shuang came in with tea: "Master, you can feel at ease now."

Guo Ruomei took the tea and shook her head: "If the grain seeds are not planted in the ground for a day, my heart will not be at ease." As she said that, she lowered her head and took a sip of tea.

Looking at the blooming jasmine flowers in the teacup, Guo Ruomei finally showed a smile: "Speaking of which, the eldest girl from the Yan family helped us twice."

However, soon, the smile on his face faded again, and he said somewhat depressedly: "My eyes are just too sharp."

The last time I finally had a chance to have contact with my son, I was ruined by that girl.

Mei Shuang looked a little embarrassed when she thought about the last time the eldest girl of the Yan family saw through her disguise.

They were also in a hurry, otherwise, how could a little girl find out something was wrong?

Guo Ruomei took another sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and said, "Go tell Shen Qiao and let her teach the eldest daughter of the Yan family, and also make up for her the things of the noble ladies in the capital."

Mei Shuang nodded in agreement.

Shen Qiao is Mrs. Shen of the Yan family. In order to thank the eldest daughter of the Yan family for saving the young master, the master asked her to visit Shen Qiao. After that, Shen Qiao went to the Yan family to teach several girls.

Otherwise, with Shen Qiao's reputation in Xingzhou, the newly arrived Yan family would not be able to invite him.

......

Zhoufu.

Mr. Zhou was also concerned about the loss of grain seeds. After learning that the Yan family helped collect more than 20,000 stones of grain seeds, he also sighed deeply.

"This man, when his luck comes, nothing can stop him. When he first arrived in Xingzhou last year, Yan Zhigao was ostracized and bullied by the entire prefectural government, but now... even the provincial government officials

Senator Du has even taken the initiative to bow his head and sue for peace."

Mr. Zhou nodded, with a slightly sour tone: "Isn't it?"

Mr. Zhou glanced at him: "I heard that this time the young prince took the three brothers of the Yan family to the command department. Originally, he didn't call Chengye. It was the eldest son who mentioned it, so he followed."

Mr. Zhou didn't care much: "It's useless to study literature and command the envoys. It's normal for the young prince not to call him."

Mr. Zhou shook his head in disappointment: "Is this a question of whether it is useful or not? This is a question of whether the young prince can take our family's business with him or not. Forget it, you don't understand this."
