Chapter 868(1/2)
"If the wife is willing to sell the food to me, not only me, but my Majesty will be grateful!"
Lin Xiaobao climbed up the pole.
Since the other party mentioned the most difficult and difficult thing about food, of course he had to seize the opportunity and take the opportunity to make a request to buy food.
Yan Yunge smiled and said, "My wife's population is less than one million, and she also has to raise tens of thousands of soldiers. She consumes astronomical grain every day. You can check it out. The grain shop sells grain every day and registers it. I'm also short of food here! I'm afraid I can't do anything about the tragedy in Beiliang."
Lin Xiaobao said anxiously: "Mrs. She is rich and never lacks money and food. Even in the year of disaster, she will have a full warehouse of grain.
The most pitiful people in Beiliang are the disaster-stricken people. They are cold and there is no place to cover the wind and rain. They also have to go out to beg in the wind and snow, just to have a bit of food to survive.
Otherwise, you will have to die of cold and starvation, die in a foreign land, and you will not even have the chance to return to your hometown.
My wife is very compassionate and merciful. She does not ask for the worries of His Majesty, but only wants to sell some food for the sake of the victims of the disaster and save thousands of victims of the disaster."
Why……
Yan Yunge sighed, "Although he has never seen the tragic situation of the victims with his own eyes, he can still imagine the danger and desolation.
However, the reason why the victims of Beiliang were responsible for the disaster was that the Northern Liang court was Liu Baoshun, not my wife.
My wife is the first to consider the people under her rule. If she has spare energy, she can help the people in other places. However, my wife is not capable at the moment, so don’t mention the matter of selling grain.”
Lin Xiaobao looked desperate and looked very pitiful.
Yan Yunge was unmoved.
Lin Xiaobao refused to give up, "Does Madam really be so cruel? She doesn't ask for much food. As long as the Madam is willing to sell food, she can save hundreds, thousands of people... This is a great merit!"
Yan Yunge laughed when he heard this.
"Don't think about fooling Mrs. My ability to fool people is taught to you by Mrs. Isn't it a bit overestimating your ability to show off in front of me?"
Lin Xiaobao was very embarrassed.
But he said sincerely: "I am indeed overestimating my ability. However, the words I said were all heartfelt words. I said less than one percent of the sufferings of the people in Beiliang. Please show your compassion for the sake of the people affected by the disaster."
"You were wrong!"
Yanyun songs loudly.
She sternly said: "Even if I am willing to sell food, can you guarantee that all these foods will fall into the hands of the affected people?
The real way to save the affected people is not to ask me to sell food, but to solve the problem from the root. What is the root cause? You know and I know.
I heard that Beiliang was drought, but the fertile land under the name of the aristocratic families still had a good harvest and the grain was full of food. Why is this? My wife doesn’t believe you don’t know the tricks.”
Lin Xiaobao was very embarrassed.
Of course, he knew that in the year of disaster, aristocratic families would not suffer from disasters, but would have a great fortune in the year of disasters.
Even he himself took the opportunity to make a deal.
I bought a large number of land and houses for the victims of self-cultivated farming and disaster relief at a low price, and a group of land slaves were added to farm for him for free, just to ensure that these land slaves were alive.
The cost of raising land slaves is basically negligible.
This is why the common people hope for good weather, while the aristocratic families like to have disasters.
Can you make a fortune!
His face was not very good-looking and he smiled awkwardly.
He said with little confidence: "The root cause is not solved in a short time. It is important to find a way to raise food at the moment."
Yan Yunge sneered: "You and the emperor Liu Baoshun behind you are ridiculous. You are unwilling to contribute money to disaster relief, but you use your righteousness to try to convince irrelevant people to pay for money to provide food to disaster relief. It's really... Liu Baoshun deserves to be suffered by this disaster.
The people of Beiliang are also pitiful. It is so painful to meet such an emperor.
If Liu Zhang was still alive, the people would not be so miserable. Liu Baoshun was better. He could not stand on the other side of the aristocratic family with all his heart and could not solve the hardships of people's livelihood.
I choose to kill when encountering problems, but I don’t have the courage to kill.
If Liu Zhang was still alive, he would probably be angry to death.
The most taboo is to hesitate when encountering things. You must do things without doing anything. The most taboo is to keep half of it.
At this time, the principle of life and death is related to life and death, and the principle of leaving everything for a long time to meet each other does not apply to the current situation.
It’s a pity that the counselors around Liu Baoshun were obviously half a bucket of water. What a pity!”
Lin Xiaobao didn't know how to refute it.
"Mrs. I can't force it. But why did Mrs. Xiao let General Xiao fight on the border? Now, both sides are facing a great enemy, and a war will break out at any time. When the war comes, life will be ruined. Does the lady bear it?"
"You're wrong again!"
Yan Yunge reminded: "Let's not talk about why I want to set up a military camp on the border. Even if the two sides really start a war, there may not be any loss of life. Maybe for the common people, war is their chance to survive."
"How can my wife turn the wrong things in the black and white? From ancient times to the present, I have never heard of war as an opportunity for the common people."
Yan Yunge smiled.
She said solemnly: "Don't rush to refute. Think carefully, do many of the founding generals of all dynasties start from small soldiers and make repeated military achievements before they can achieve success? What is war?
War is to break the old order and create a new order.
In this process, as long as you are good at seizing opportunities, small people can achieve great things.
If you cannot seize the opportunity, the top families will be destroyed in one go.
When the old and new are alternating, should we hold on to the old interests or choose to embrace new opportunities?
This not only tests a person's eyesight and judgment, but also tests a person's courage.
I wonder what choice should Lord Lin make if he reaches the intersection one day?
Reminder one more thing, don’t make a passive choice just like the previous ones, and wait until the overall situation is decided.
If you are willing to make choices and make choices before the overall situation is decided, your achievements will definitely not be like this today.
In the middle of winter, I came to Pingyang County to be an envoy in the wind and snow. Don’t you feel the hard work?”
Her words were like a dose of tiger medicine, or a poison that despises people.
It was more like a heavy punch, hitting Lin Xiaobao hard on the head, making him dizzy and dizzy, unable to tell the difference between the east, south, west and north.
He shook his head frequently, "Madam, don't try to bewitch me anymore. I, I am an official from Beiliang, and naturally I will be loyal to the emperor of Beiliang."
"However, Liu Baoshun is an incompetent emperor. After six years of ascending the throne, the treasury did not accumulate even a year or two of food. Do you think he deserves this disaster?"
"The emperor's fault should not involve innocent civilians."
"The little people in Beiliang are indeed pitiful, but they are all Liu Baoshun's people. Of course, Liu Baoshun's fault will be implicated. The emperor was angry and buried in a million corpses. Do you think it was a joke?"
That moment...
Lin Xiaobao shivered.
"Do you want to take the opportunity to start a war, grab territory, and seize the Northern Liang Dynasty?"
He seemed to have opened the Ren and Du meridians in an instant, and he seemed to have opened his mind and figured out everything.
He looked scared and felt incredible, and he was completely stunned.
How is that possible?
How is this possible?
He asked himself repeatedly, would all this be true?
Back then, when he met her, she was still a little girl, and she made a big noise in a mere wealthy villa.
Years later, she went from being the owner of Fugui Villa to becoming the owner of the twelve counties of two states and twelve counties.
The territory has expanded by more than a hundred times, and the population has increased by dozens or hundreds of times.
She is still a woman, but she can achieve such success, so why can't she be involved in the Beiliang River?
She has enough money, food, and military capital to fight for dominance of the world.
The current natural disaster is a disaster for Beiliang, but for her, this is a god-given opportunity!
Once the war begins, it is really possible to conquer the northern territory with the momentum of urging Gulashu.
Lin Xiaobao, a big fat man, covered his lips like a little girl, his eyes widened, as if he had seen the most terrifying and incredible scene in the world.
Yan Yunge's expression seemed to be a smile, and his eyes obviously saw through everything.
She lifted the teapot and poured tea for him.
"Are Lord Lin scared? Is this Mrs. Lin afraid that Mrs. will kill you?"
Lin Xiaobao nodded first, then shook his head repeatedly, like a frightened deer.
It was worthy of being a performer back then. Although his figure is no longer the same as before, his eyes are still in place.
Yan Yunge pursed his lips and smiled, "Don't be afraid, Lord Lin, I don't plan to take your life."
It was obvious that Lin Xiaobao breathed a sigh of relief, and the sound of gasping was clearly heard.
Yan Yunge lowered his head and smiled, not exposing the other party.
Lin Xiaobao controlled his trembling hands, picked up the teacup and took a sip, trying his best to calm down his chaotic and uneasy heartbeat.
To be continued...
