There are still a lot of food stored in Prince Yu’s mansion.

After all, he opened five restaurants, and the housekeeper Tian Rong kept a reserve of 10,000 stones of grain in the warehouses of outside merchants on weekdays.

The Dakang Dynasty had extremely developed business, and this kind of private warehouse was also born. It was usually located in relatively far away areas in the suburbs and was managed by some commercial banks.

That night, Tian Rong ignored the soap and flower essential oil workshop and personally led hundreds of guards from the royal palace to move 10,000 stones of grain back to the Prince Yu's Mansion.

Prince Yu's mansion is in the imperial city. This batch of food will be in danger unless the turmoil reaches the imperial city - that is, all the Yulin Guards are killed in battle.

But to be honest, even the six major field imperial guards with 10,000 people were unwilling to face the 6,000 Yulin Guard madmen.

If it were a thug, it would probably take more than 100,000 people to trap Yulin Guard to death.

After moving the food back to the royal palace, Prince Yu and Princess Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

There are only more than 300 people in the family. No matter what, there will be no shortage of food in the next two or three years.

However, Liu Mingqi has a different view.

"Dad, mom, what do you think the people are most afraid of at this time?" asked the young man.

"There is no food." Princess Yu said without thinking.

"No." Liu Mingqi shook her head, "What they fear is fear itself, because fear has no food."

Liu Mingqi's words were a bit confused, but her parents didn't understand.

The boy said carefully: "Actually, as far as I know, the grain in our Jingji area is very sufficient. Several granaries of large and small have stored at least 30 million stones of grain, right?"

King Yu nodded and said, "Well, under normal circumstances, it should be no less than 30 million stones."

"Three million stones are provided to 10 million people, and they can eat them for at least ten months. If vegetables, wild vegetables, meat, etc. are added, there will be no problem for a year." Liu Mingqi said: "Besides, this locust plague will not be affected. Jiangnan will be able to transport this year's grain in October at the latest. At that time, support will be a year and a half, right?"

"It makes sense for you to say that." Princess Yu was very smart and immediately understood.

Not to mention waiting for a year and a half, if you wait for another half a year, the wheat in the new season should be harvested, and then the rice in the new season, with no interruption in the middle.

"But the people are not so smart. They will only be driven by panic and thus hoard food crazily." Liu Mingqi said, "There are so many people in the Gyeonggi area. Even if each household only stocks 200 kilograms of grain per household, the food on the market will be out of stock, which will cause more panic.

Then people who bought 200 kilograms of food would panic and buy more and buy more... Under such a vicious cycle, even if there is more food, it would not be enough."

Liu Mingqi didn't brag.

He even has practical experience.

When the price was passed in the 1980s, people bought soy sauce that could be used for several years.

In the 2000s, people stocked up isatis root and vinegar that they could eat for several years.

During the Fukushima incident in the 1920s, people stocked up salt that could be used for several years.

Even modern people are so ignorant and panic. How rational can you ask for in ancient times?

"So how to solve it?" King Yu's face turned ugly, "It's so bad that the capital is in chaos."

"Mr. Miao will definitely make some efforts, and the ministers in the court will also have countermeasures." Liu Mingqi said, "The matter will be resolved in the end, but if we take the initiative, it will be more conducive to stability."

After a pause, Liu Mingqi said, "The problem now is, father and mother, are you willing to do this? Are you willing to sacrifice your own interests to help the court and the emperor?"

"nonsense!"

King Yu immediately expressed his opinion, "The emperor and I were born to the same mother. They are very good to me and help me as much as possible. Why don't you do it?"

Princess Yu thought about it and nodded slowly: "The emperor is a good person, and we are also royal relatives. If there is turmoil in the capital, it will be unfavorable to us, so we should help."

In fact, what she thought was that now she is making money by relying on soap and flower essential oils, and rice and wheat are of no use to our palace. It is also a good thing to take it out for favors, so as not to be too jealous of others.

If others talk nonsense in the future, then because we helped the emperor today, he would have to protect us more because of this favor.

Liu Mingqi nodded after hearing this, "Since we all have a unified opinion, it will be much easier... Let's start doing things seriously from tomorrow."

After a pause, he said again: "But before this, mom, please call your two uncles immediately. I have something to ask them for help."

"Now?" Princess Yu looked at the time, and the moon was already hanging high.

"Yes, it's not time to go." Liu Mingqi insisted.

Seeing his son's attitude, Princess Yu ignored her younger brother and immediately asked Lu Ling to call her two younger brothers.

Fortunately, they also lived in Prince Yu's Mansion, otherwise they would have worked hard.

The two of them obviously hadn't slept yet, and they came over in a while.

"Did you have any way to get as much food as possible in the shortest time?" Liu Mingqi asked directly.

Xu Dongping is also a witness tonight, and he also knows what happened.

Obviously, he also considered this issue, so he said without thinking: "The Xu family has many connections in some towns around the Grand Canal. If I leave by boat tonight and look for it along the way, I should be able to find at least 100,000 stones, and it will take ten days."

"good!"

Liu Mingqi nodded and said, "Then you can go out, remember, as much as possible. Collect a little and transport it back first, don't be afraid of spending money."

"I see!"

Xu Dongping turned around and walked out.

His decisiveness made Princess Yu and Xu Dongsheng stunned.

But the boy admired his uncle even more.

If you can do things and dare to work hard, you can't do it if you are not developed.

When he left, Xu Dongsheng asked his nephew hesitantly, "Xiao Qi, you won't... don't want to pick up the plane and make a fortune, right?"

"No, no, no, uncle, where do you want to go?" Liu Mingqi smiled and shook her hand. "Although I am not smart, according to the cases of ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, those who make money in the country have never had a good end."

Xu Dongsheng then felt relieved, "Then why are you so anxious to buy food? If the mansion is not enough, there are still tens of thousands of stones of grain stored in our hometown in Jiangnan. You can transport 10,000 stones for you first."

"I have something to do." Liu Mingqi smiled, "By the way, uncle, you have nothing to do these days, let's go with me and see how I did it."

Xu Dongsheng was confused, but since his nephew said that, he was also a little interested in seeing what his nephew did, so he happily agreed.

However, he was a little worried about what Liu Mingqi was about to do. He was afraid that his nephew would destroy the foundation of Prince Yu's mansion under impulse.

After all, Prince Yu’s mansion is booming now. If Liu Mingqi acts recklessly and spends all her family’s assets, it will be too late to cry.

The Qin Hai Gong series passed down, and when he was about to be Qin Hai Zi, he had gradually become mediocre.

If my brother hadn't had a bit of a crooked business and had a lot of contacts, I'm afraid my father would have considered moving directly to the capital and relying on Prince Yu's mansion where his daughter is located.

Although it is a bit embarrassing to rely on your son-in-law’s house to eat, it is better than to rely on your meager salary to drink porridge in the future.

This is also why the two brothers couldn't wait after hearing about soap and floral essential oil.

Never get us back to where we are before we start to be rich!

The second son of Haibo was praying silently in his heart.

Compared to his uneasiness, King Yu's heart was full of pride and pride.

He knew that his abilities were very average. If he had not been born in the royal family, he would have to work hard in this life and would have to live in food and clothing.

Luckily, he was originally a happy rice worm in his life, doing nothing, but he would not be bitter.

But I didn't expect that my son was so smart and so responsible. Even if he lost his own money, he had to share his worries for the emperor. Isn't this the best performance of a clan's family?

The divine light shines on the son, as if it is also shining on oneself.

...

In fact, no one was thinking about Liu Mingqi.

It was not the nonsense that Xu Dongsheng thought, nor was it the kindness that Princess Yu thought, nor was it the kindness that Prince Yu thought to share the emperor's worries and problems.

It was purely because Liu Mingqi couldn't stand the people being manipulated by big capital. She worked hard all her life but was played with and plundered by people like livestock.

The people's wishes are actually very low.

As long as you can have a full meal and be together, it is the greatest wish of most people.

However, in all dynasties, including ancient and modern times, China and abroad, no country could do this completely by 2020.

So Liu Mingqi has deeply understood from the moment she returned to ancient times that she could not save everyone, and it would be good to live her own life.

But now when encountering this locust plague that swept half of the Dakang Dynasty, millions or even millions of people can be seen in a clear way. How could a person who grew up under the Red Flag be indifferent?

Heaven and earth are unkind and regard all things as straw dogs.

But Emperor Zhaolie of Han once said, "Do not do good because of small good, and do not do evil because of small evil."

If everyone thinks that they cannot turn the world around and do not even do the little good deeds around them, then there is no hope for this country and society.

Liu Mingqi is not very capable, but at least it is always possible to use her various insights and ideas that are ahead of her for a thousand years to do something within her ability, right?

Money is a good thing, and people must never lack it in their entire lives.

But if you are controlled by money and become a slave to money, even if you are the richest man in the world, you will not be very happy.

Can make money and spend money.

Can make money, can spend money.

The two are very different.

Liu Mingqi wrote Li Taibai's "Jingjinji" and said, "I'll come back after all the money is gone." Is it just a slogan?

When did the verbal slut have a future?

That night, Prince Yu's room was brightly lit and never turned off.
