The person was stopped, and Magistrate Sun had already walked in from outside. Magistrate Zhao glanced at the father and son with similar looks, turned around and entered the lobby angrily.
As soon as County Magistrate Sun arrived at the Zhao Mansion and saw his useless son, he knew what was going on.
"What do I want from a loser like you?" Magistrate Sun was so angry at Sun Hongyuan for the first time, "If you offend Miss Yun, you will offend the prefect, which is equivalent to offending the entire Ruizhou people.
Do you know who Miss Yun’s cousin is?"
Sun Hongyuan thought of that soft child, "Isn't he Mr. Zhao's son?"
"He is the current sage." Magistrate Sun was furious, "How could I raise a son like you?"
After Magistrate Sun scolded him, he stepped in directly. After taking two steps, he noticed that Sun Hongyuan had not followed him. He turned back and roared, "Hurry up and follow me. If I lose this official position because of you, I won't do it when I go back."
Off your skin."
Sun Hongyuan shivered and quickly followed.
He couldn't understand why Yun Miaomiao was related to the current Holy Lord, even if it was related to Mr. Zhao.
The emperor is her cousin, so isn't she a princess?
But looking at her, she doesn't look like a princess at all.
Sun Hongyuan couldn't understand, but he knew clearly that if his father lost his position as county magistrate because of him, who would definitely have peeled off his skin when he returned.
Magistrate Zhao, no, now everyone calls him Magistrate Zhao or Master Zhao.
He sat at the top and looked at the two people coming in with a serious look on his face, "Magistrate Sun, sit down."
In addition to doting on his only son, Magistrate Sun was very respectful to the people and the court, so Magistrate Zhao did not express his anger and treated him kindly.
Magistrate Zhao did not ask Sun Hongyuan to sit down, and Sun Hongyuan did not dare to sit down directly. Instead, he stood beside Magistrate Sun obediently, not even daring to express his anger.
Magistrate Zhao glanced at him, and then turned his attention to County Magistrate Sun, "I wonder why the magistrate is looking for me?"
Magistrate Sun had a look of shame on his face, "Speaking of it, the official did not teach his son well, so he let the dog hit Miss Yun. Of course, I am not the person to protect the dog. Miss Yun wanted to beat or scold me, and the official had no complaints at all.
Miss Yun's disposal, my lord, you also know that all the expenses of Xiaguan's family have been used for disaster relief. Now the family really can't come up with the five hundred taels of silver, so Xiaguan thought of letting this traitor go and deal with Miss Yun.
, let him know how hard-earned his life is, and the official has absolutely no other clinging thoughts. He also asked the adults to say a few words in front of Miss Yun, and let him follow Miss Yun, and he can also bring tea and water.
."
"In the matter of discipline, Magistrate Sun should not embarrass a girl's family. Miaomiao is young and is about the same age as your master. Discipline is too difficult." Magistrate Zhao directly rejected Magistrate Sun's request, "Moreover,
, she just stayed here for two days, came back to see me, an old man living alone, and left in a few days."
After all, he had worked with Magistrate Sun for a long time, so he couldn't help but add another sentence, "I think your master's temperament is acceptable. If you find him a stricter teacher, he will definitely be able to achieve great things in the future."
Magistrate Sun glanced at Sun Hongyuan. He had never looked for stricter teachers, but all of them were angered by this traitor.
"Prefect Zhao, if you can, please introduce me to Miss Yun. Whatever happens in the end, I will have a good idea." Magistrate Sun still refused to give up and wanted Sun Hongyuan to follow Yun Miaomiao. "Although I am only such a son,
But after many years of being indulged by me, Miss Yun is a knowledgeable and capable person, and I feel relieved when I leave the dog in her hands."
Magistrate Zhao saw that he didn't seem to be lying and that he really wanted to leave his son in Yun Miaomiao's care, but Yun Miaomiao obviously didn't want to take care of this matter.
"County Magistrate Sun, in my opinion, the chance of this matter is low. Miaomiao will go to Ruizhou Academy the day after tomorrow. Her brother Yunsu is the direct disciple of the dean of the academy. If you want your son to have a future and change his ways, I will
I think you might as well prepare some gifts and go to Ruizhou Academy to beg the dean. Going to Ruizhou Academy might be a way out."
Magistrate Sun frowned. Magistrate Zhao had already said this, and it obviously wouldn't work. However, he mentioned that Sun Hongyuan should go to Ruizhou Academy. Since Yun Miaomiao's younger brother Yun Su is also there, it can be regarded as a good idea.
good idea.
"Thank you for the tip, sir. I will go back and prepare now. When will Miss Yun leave? Please send someone to let me know when the time comes so that I can send someone to send this traitor along. After all, the road is high and the mountain is high."
If you're far away, it's good to have someone to take care of you just in case."
When Magistrate Sun sent Sun Hongyuan to the academy, he would definitely arrange for a bodyguard to escort him. Yun Miaomiao only brought one Qingyang with him along the way, so setting off together would make him feel more at ease.
"Of course I will inform Magistrate Sun."
With Mr. Zhao's accurate words, Magistrate Sun also breathed a sigh of relief. If Sun Hongyuan was not allowed to follow the road, Sun Hongyuan would have offended Yun Miaomiao, and his road to promotion would probably be full of twists and turns.
Sun Hongyuan was taken back by Magistrate Sun, and he would be sent to Ruizhou Academy. When Yun Miaomiao learned about it, it was already after dinner.
"If he wants to go, let him go." Yun Miaomiao didn't mind, "It's really a time for you and me to use people in the court. It's better to have one more capable person than one more gangster."
Because of the sudden death of the late emperor, there were constant debates in the court, and many senators resigned from their posts and retired, but this just suited Xiao Zhuo's wishes.
The court had been corrupted for many years, which would make the people miserable. To save him from having to think of ways to trouble him, he simply acquiesced to these people's resistance and went with the flow. Those people thought they could take advantage of Xiao Zhuo, but they didn't expect Xiao Zhuo to come up with a trick and let him
They were dumb and couldn't tell how hard it was to eat Coptis chinensis, so they had no choice but to retreat to the court unwillingly.
A large number of people have taken a back seat in the court, and of course a lot of positions have become vacant. Xiao Zhuo and Gu Fengqing are also trying to select talented people. She doesn't know whether Sun Hongyuan is a talented person, but she knows
What Xiao Zhuo and Gu Fengqing lack most now is people.
Mr. Zhao paused while holding the chopsticks. He also knew that the court was most in need of talents, otherwise he would not be able to lead the land of Ruizhou and be a prefect.
Ruizhou has now become a collective name, with eleven counties and countless villages under it. As a prefect, he can be said to be the largest prefect in history.
"You are going back to the academy the day after tomorrow. Yun Su, I think, is fine except for being a little frightened. There are flowers in your godmother's shops, and they are all running very well. If it weren't for you,
Those methods, I really don’t know what to do.” Master Zhao said with emotion.
Yun Miaomiao knows that life in Ruizhou has indeed been difficult during this period of time. Although it is much better now, many problems will come with it.
"Daddy, although the crops in the fields have been planted now, last year's locust plague is still fresh in my mind. Locusts have a very strong reproductive ability. As the temperature gets higher and higher, their eggs will be released again when the rice matures.
To make a comeback, you ask farmers to raise some ducks in the fields. Ducks don't eat rice, but they eat locusts. Duck droppings can also prevent locusts from coming back. In this way, when it's time to harvest, these hard-earned crops will be eaten.
Rice will never be eaten by locusts again."
"Is it really possible to raise ducks?" Mr. Zhao didn't believe it. "If that's the case, then we'll have to raise a lot of ducks. I'll have to get someone to write a notice as soon as possible."
Yun Miaomiao nodded, "It's useful. I don't know when it will rain now. It will take some time for the food to grow. I came here this time to talk to my godfather about another thing, and also to provide food for those on the dock.
There is work to be done on the ship, but this work is still a bit dangerous."
She glanced at Mr. Zhao and continued, "Godfather, you also know that the current prosperity is only temporary. There are still many places that do not have food, and it is in short supply. Food prices have also risen sharply. If we change
How long does it take for an ordinary person to have enough to eat? In addition to sending Yun Su to the academy this time, I just want to tell you that I also plan to go to Qinlan River. The water bandits in Qinlan River were all beaten away by the husband.
Now, the people living on the Qinlan River are all people from the original Jiangning Village. They and I are all fellow villagers. The islands there are big and there are a lot of seafood. My godfather should know that the seafood is delicious and there are things close to the sea.
There is always a lot of food and plenty to eat. If we can transport it back, the food shortage can be alleviated to some extent."
"Do you want to start a seafood business?" Mr. Zhao looked at her in disbelief, "But the wind and waves on the sea are very dangerous. It takes at least four days from here to the Qinlan River. I also heard Wang Cheng say that apart from the wind and waves in the sea,
There are also sea beasts that eat people without spitting out their bones, and can bite off most of a boat in one bite."
Naturally, Yun Miaomiao would not say that she had a way to deal with those sea beasts. "The times when those sea beasts appear are also regular. As long as we grasp the rules, we will not be attacked by those sea beasts. This is the best way I can think of."
, and people now have money in their hands, but they can’t buy food, and the supply is less than the demand. If the seafood business is done well, it will be good not only for me, but also for the emperor, don’t you think so?”
"That's true, everyone has a lot of money now, but food is in short supply. If it can be done, it will indeed be a good opportunity to make money." Mr. Zhao nodded.
"When I came here this time, I not only saw a lot of cargo ships docked at the pier, but also shippers looking for work. If they are willing to take this trip, the price will be easy to negotiate. Once the goods are delivered,
, shipped to the capital, and also to other places. When the time comes, people who have free time will be able to take action. As long as the supply of sea goods is enough, then every household will be able to afford food, what do you think?"
Mr. Zhao already has a picture in his mind. Every household is happily working and making money, full of enthusiasm.
"This is not a trivial matter. It requires careful planning and written regulations." Mr. Zhao said.
"I have already written it on the way here. If there is no problem, godfather, just find a few reliable people to do it. If those people agree to go to sea, I will pay you one tael of silver for a trip. If anyone wants to go,
Then I asked someone to write down all the names, and after I come back from the academy, we will set off to Qin Lanhe together."
"This is not a trivial matter. Butler Zhao is injured again. I can't find a suitable person to do it for a while." Mr. Zhao was in trouble.
Hualu looked at Mr. Zhao, then at Yun Miaomiao, and stood up boldly, "Master, Miss, if you are at ease, please leave this matter to me. I have learned a lot in the past six months."
, the slave can still do this job of selecting people, but after the sea goods arrived, the slave has never seen the sea goods, so she can’t tell whether they are good or bad. She doesn’t know the quality and how to choose. It still needs experienced hands to select.
That’s all.”
Yun Miaomiao and Mr. Zhao looked at each other, and Hua Lu was indeed a good choice. "I'll leave it to you to select people. As for the overseas goods, Dongqing and Wang Cheng will also come back by then. I'll let them stay."
There is help here at the dock, and with them here, these are not problems."
This is the only way, "Okay. When they come back, Butler Zhao can't walk with his legs, but he can still help with the accounting, and he can help to some extent. And I'm here to take charge, so you don't have to worry."
."
"Then thank you godfather." Yun Miaomiao said with a crooked smile.
"You are my daughter. If I don't help you, who will I help? Besides, you are not doing it for yourself, you are doing it for the people. Speaking of which, you are more like a parent official than me, an official of the imperial court. You worry about the people to this extent."
The adults sighed.
Yun Miaomiao laughed, she was not doing it for the people, she was doing it for the money.
Money is a good thing, who can not love it?
After discussing some details with Mr. Zhao, Yun Miaomiao went back with Hua Lu. She told Hua Lu the general conditions of the person she needed.
"In short, the two big ships must have fifty people going to sea. This is the money for this voyage. After they come back, you will pay them after inspecting the goods. If it is not enough, ask someone to write to me. Then I will ask someone to
Brought to you." Yun Miaomiao took out a stack of banknotes from her arms, all in the amount of one hundred taels.
This was the first time Hualu saw so much money, and she quickly refused, "No, no, no, no, I can't manage so much money. What if my donation escapes then? No, miss, I don't worry about keeping it myself.
I..."
Yun Miaomiao put all the money into Hua Lu's hands.
"Take it with peace of mind, I believe you won't." Yun Miaomiao said with a smile, "You will be my right-hand man from now on. After you are over this difficulty, I will find a good husband for you to marry.
of."
Hua Lu blushed instantly and said, "Miss, you are so weird for making fun of me. Who at my age would be willing to marry me."
Hualu is not very old either, she is just twenty-three this year, and Yun Miaomiao is a modern person, so her age is really not that old for her.
"You're only twenty-three. I heard a doctor say before that the best age for a woman is between twenty and twenty-five. It's easy to have children and it's good for your health. Even if you get married in two years, you won't be able to get married.
It's more than enough." Yun Miaomiao looked serious.
Hualu's eyes widened, "Really?"
"It's really possible." Yun Miaomiao nodded, "If your uncle hadn't been so anxious, I wouldn't have wanted to get married. I would still have to earn a lot of money and live the life I want."
"Miss, what kind of life do you want to live? Aren't women supposed to support their husbands and raise their children?"
"No, everyone has different choices. Some people like to have husbands and children, but I like to make money and spend money, do what I like to do, see all over the world, and travel around mountains and rivers."
Hua Lu looked yearning, "Then I will live the life I want like the young lady in the future."
"Well, it must be possible."
Two days later, Yun Miaomiao took Yun Su on a carriage to the academy. Before leaving, Sun Hongyuan also came with the carriage. This time, Yun Miaomiao did not chase him away, and he followed him as he pleased.
We walked on and off for five or six days. When Yun Ya saw someone, tears filled her eyes. She rushed out and hugged Yun Miaomiao and Yun Su.
"Cousin, Yun Su, you are finally back." Yun Ya's eyes were red. He had grown much taller and fairer. Yun Miaomiao almost didn't recognize him when he saw him.
She looked at the person holding her in surprise, "Yunya, are you Yunya?"
Yun Su was equally surprised, "Are you that guy from Yun Ya?"
Yun Ya withdrew from her arms and raised his head, "Cousin, if you don't come back, I will discuss with the dean and go find you."
As expected, it was Yunya who had grown up.
Yun Miaomiao's eyes were gentle, "How could I forget you? There are many things going on, and you should have heard about it. I'm coming back to see you. What are you afraid of? My sister is still thinking about the yard here. Why?
Will you come back?"
Yun Ya hummed, looked at Yun Su who had also grown a lot, but was not as tall as him, and teased, "What's your name, Yun Ya? I'm your cousin. You want to call me cousin from now on, do you hear me?"
Yun Su looked at him angrily, "No, Yunya Yunya, smelly Yunya."
Yun Ya burst out laughing, picked him up and threw him up, "Should I call you cousin?"
"Ah haha, put me down." Yun Su exclaimed and shouted.
The two of them continued to fight, and Ying Feichen also walked out of Xianyun Pavilion, leaning on the threshold and watching this heartwarming scene.
Yun Miaomiao saw the person and walked towards him, "Long time no see, Dean Ying."
"The sky in the capital has changed. Should I salute you?" Ying Feichen joked.
Yun Miaomiao laughed, "Dean Ying's sour words, are you jealous of me?"
Ying Feichen snorted, "After this guy found out that you were taken away by the water bandits, he stayed up for days and nights, practicing in the yard. Later, when he learned that you were back, he got seriously ill, and the capital changed drastically.
, he was worried about your safety. He lay in bed and fell asleep for a month. His illness was very serious. Later, when he learned that Xiao Zhuo had ascended the throne, he gradually got better. If you come back this time, take him away. I will not serve you anymore.
"
When Yun Miaomiao heard this, she looked at Yun Ya who was laughing, her eyes were sore, she didn't expect that Yun Ya would have such an experience...
