Chapter 9: The new version of the super fast growing farm (8)
"Are you serious about tens of thousands of catties of grain?
Do you really have that much food to donate?”
To be honest, Yunqi Nv Guan didn’t really feel that Ding Yun’s words about tens of millions of kilograms of food to help were true. She was willing to listen to what she continued and was willing to help. The main reason was that she didn’t think she was like him at first.
Secondly, the child felt that Ding Yun's situation was somewhat similar to her own.
They are all blood relatives who are greedy for money.
Want to harm them.
Only with empathy can you help voluntarily.
She had even made preparations to educate Ding Yun so that he would not continue to lie in the future if Ding Yun could not produce the food.
But who would have thought that she hadn't mentioned it yet.
Ding Yun mentioned it first, and he was so confident that it didn't look like he was lying.
"Of course it's true.
Could it be that Master Yunqi still thinks I’m lying? Then it’s really you who wrongly blamed me!
I don't even bother doing fraudulent donations."
In response, Ding Yun pretended to be angry.
Make a gesture of being wronged and dissatisfied.
And Yunqi Nv Guan also immediately admitted her mistake, bowed and said: "It's my fault, it's my narrow-mindedness.
Please don’t take offense, little layman!"
At this time, Ding Yun of course stood up immediately and returned the gift quickly: "I can't blame you.
It is indeed difficult to come up with tens of millions of kilograms of grain. Even if the grain merchants said that they would donate so much, they might not be that convincing, let alone me, a girl.
I can have so much food donated.
It's just a coincidence and luck."
"Having so much grain and whether you are willing to donate so much grain are completely different. Among the big grain merchants in Jinling City, which one does not have tens of millions of kilograms of grain in hand, but how many of them are willing?
No matter how much you donate, donate the most.
It’s just a donation of 100,000 catties.
But they donated 100,000 kilograms, and then raised the price of food by 30% or 20%, so they might as well not donate."
At this time, the Yunqi female crown no longer dared to treat Ding Yun as a child. When speaking, she even vaguely talked to her as a peer.
He complained about the grain merchants in Jinling City.
Ding Yun, on the other hand, shook his head:
"Even if those grain merchants don't donate grain.
Won’t they raise the price?”
The Yunqi female crown was stunned by Ding Yun's words. After a long time, she smiled bitterly and shook her head:
"I can't see it as clearly as you.
Yes, how much does their price increase have to do with donations? Even without donations, none of them would be willing to make less money. That is, the drought did not happen here in Jinling City, but if it happened here.
It is estimated that they can triple the price.
Alas... people's livelihood is so difficult!"
After lamenting the greed of grain merchants and the hardship of the people, Yunqi Nvguan immediately said:
"Little layman, I don't know this food..."
"Don't blame me for being anxious. The drought in Jinzhou is really too serious. The imperial court sent people to provide disaster relief some time ago. Unfortunately, more than half of the money and food for the disaster relief was embezzled. Not only did it fail to appease the people, but it also caused a stir among the people.
chaos.
Now the court is still noisy as they continue to provide disaster relief.
It’s better to send troops to suppress it.”
"If we delay for one more day, I don't know how many people will starve to death, and it will take time to transport the food.
Don't worry that I will take your credit.
As soon as the food is in place, I will immediately report it to the Taoist Palace for you. With this merit, the higher-ups should give you some reward. The worst is the worst, at least you will be given a plaque for the house of good deeds!
I can also protect you for a while.
Ordinary people would never dare to do something to you."
I have to say that Ding Yun really did not misjudge the person, and Yunqi is indeed a very sincere person.
"Master Yunqi, the food issue is easy to handle.
Just hire more hands and carts, and then I'll take them to transport them tomorrow, to a natural cave in a valley not far away.
But the above table is not necessary.
I just wanted to keep my name anonymous and didn’t want my father and stepmother to find out, so I came to Jinling specially and even changed my household registration. If I get my name in public, what would I do if they find out!"
Regarding the food matter, Ding Yun had no problem at all. As long as she went back down the mountain to find a hidden place, she could find a way to get more than 10 million kilograms of food out of the farm warehouse.
It's not like she has to move it herself.
It can be extracted directly with a thought.
But she was unwilling to help her express her merits. After all, her identity was really problematic, and the source of the food was actually not clear.
Don't turn around and reveal your secret, that would be bad.
Hearing this, Yunqi Nvguan immediately felt reassured and said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't worry!
I don’t need to mention your name, just say that you are a Taoist layman, and the higher-ups won’t care too much about who donated it. In the past, some wealthy businessmen also asked to remain anonymous out of fear that they would be ostracized by other peers if they donated too much.
Donate.
So this is not difficult to do.
After all, it's your credit.
Even if it’s anonymous, I can’t pretend to claim it.”
"So that's the case, then I feel ashamed."
"This is what you deserve.
Why should you be ashamed?
But I can gain some merit from this!"
After such exchanges, and after asking for relevant information such as Ding Yun's name and place of origin, they quickly decided on the specific matters and the matter of receiving food, and then Ding Yun took his leave and went down the mountain.
Prepare to get the food out.
And Yunqi also went down to Lieshan himself.
Of course, she didn't follow Ding Yun. She went down the mountain to Jinling City to apply for Ding Yun's household registration and hire some people along the way.
No one can move tens of millions of kilograms of grain.
Just relying on the people in her Taoist temple.
Have to move to the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
But after all, she hadn't seen so much food with her own eyes, so she didn't hire too many people at once. She just hired dozens of people first. After determining the specific amount of food tomorrow, she would hire more people to move it.
It's not too late.
Otherwise if it is determined that the food is genuine.
She might have to go to the government office again and ask the officials there to send some manpower for protection. After all, the value of tens of millions of kilograms of grain is quite high.
No one can guarantee whether someone will be greedy or even collude with gangsters.
Therefore, you must ask the government for protection.
But I'm not sure yet whether it's true or not.
It is not easy for her to go to the government office in advance to ask for protection.
We can only go to apply for household registration for Ding Yun first, and make some insinuations along the way. Are the government servants in the government office going out for anything recently?
This ensures they are available next time.
While Yunqi Nvguan was busy with these things, Ding Yun was also very busy. She was busy searching for outdoor places that could store wheat and rice and ensure that the wheat and rice would not have problems due to weather. After all, she was with
Yunqi Nuguan said that it was many days ago.
The batch of grain has already been shipped over.
It has rained again in the past few days.
It would not be justified if she just randomly found an open space to put the wheat and rice.
