Chapter 87: Turning Your Hands Over the Clouds and Covering the Rain (3)

Chen Yan and Lu Da looked at Fan Zhongyan suspiciously, not understanding what he was laughing at.

Lu Da is better. He has been used to seeing Chen Yue chatting and laughing among them these days. When he was young, he was a little erratic. He only calmed down after he got older, but he still liked to joke and joke, but he really liked Chen Yue's temperament.

Chen Yan first saw Chen Yue talking to people of their generation except for the time in the Chen family. Although he had heard that Chen Yue had been in and out of the government office recently, his words to the family were to meet officials in the yamen. Chen Yan himself was busy with famine. This matter not only concerns the livelihood of millions of people in Hangzhou, but also the foundation of the Chen family is also in Hangzhou. If it is not properly handled, it is a risk of injury, so naturally he has no intention of discipline the affairs of the juniors in the family.

Fan Zhongyan calmed down and smiled and asked, "Far Mountain, Xishan, are you both here? "

Chen Yan glared at Chen Yue beside him, turned to Fan Zhongyan and said, "Hundreds of people outside Changping Warehouse were incited to attack the granary. I happened to pass by. Seeing that the situation was serious, I came to discuss the solution."

Fan Zhongyan completely curled his smile, frowned and hummed, and said, "It's the grain industry that has caused trouble again. If the warehouse is opened for less than half a month, the grain storage will be sold out. At that time, they may not be able to cure them if they raise the price of grain to ten cents of stone. They may not be able to rely on them even if the government office has to rely on them!"

Lu Da glanced at Chen Yue, saw him standing beside Chen Yan with his head down and his eyebrows, coughed, and said, "I don't know if the matter discussed before is ready?"

"Oh? It turns out that Duke Xiwen Yu Yuanshan had already made a decision before?" Chen Yan asked in confusion. They did not invite him to participate when they discussed the matter before. Only four or five Hangzhou gentry veterans who were not involved in the grain business knew that it was not that he was not qualified, but that Chen Yue was involved. He was afraid that Chen Yue would not be able to let go of his responsibilities. Chen Yue did not make any suggestions and made them feel that it was effective, so he had to aggrieved his grandfather.

Fan Zhongyan stood up and said, "We have already discussed it earlier. Today I will just wait for a message from your child. Today I will dig the foundation of the grain store!"

Fan Zhongyan was deposed after experiencing the "Qingli New Policy". He was a little discouraged and did not act as recklessly as before. However, it was related to the livelihoods of countless people. The grain business was also disregarded for personal gain at this critical moment. The clay man was also angry. No matter how good his temper was, he could not tolerate grain doing evil. Although Chen Yue's behavior was ruthless, it was quite consistent with his wishes.

Chen Yan didn't care about Fan Zhongyan and others' discussions and did not call him when he was discussing the matter. After all, he was not the only former senior official who stayed in Hangzhou after retirement, and many of them were older than him. It was just that because he had been an official for generations and had good reputations, his status was relatively high. But he would never have thought that the reason why he didn't call him to discuss the matter was because he wanted to "take care of" his grandson's face. He heard that Fan Zhongyan had a solution, and couldn't help but feel great, but suddenly he paused again: "My child?" Turning his head and looking at Chen Yue, widening his eyes and pointing at him in disbelief, "Is he talking about?"

Fan Zhongyan had not spoken yet. Lu Da laughed and said, "It's your Shangwen child! He did the previous "Guangsha Camp" incident. The monk Cangde summoned the temple to start work to provide relief to the people. He also threaded a needle and thread. I heard that your grandson was taught a lesson as a junior. I told him that he wanted to take the airs of an elder in front of this boy unless you call you up, hahaha."

Chen Yan was hoarse when he heard this. His bearded mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Chen Yue behind him with disbelief: "Be serious about this?"

"What are you lying to?"

Chen Yan was still a little unbelievable, so he turned to look at Fan Zhongyan. When he saw Fan Zhongyan, he nodded with a smile, and then turned to look at Chen Yue.

Chen Yue scolded Lu Da, the old man who crossed the river and burned the bridge. When he saw Chen Yan looking over, he quickly said with a humble look: "Lu Zhang has fun with me again. It's just the idea of ​​several officials. I'm just running errands. Master Cangde just knows it with emotion and reason. How dare those who are younger generations not obey etiquette? I will never forget what my grandfather taught me."

Just kidding, heaven, earth, king, parents, teachers, etiquette, righteousness, integrity, shame, trustworthiness, and go back if you make a mistake.

Chen Yan looked at Chen Yue suspiciously, then Lu Da and Fan Zhongyan. Logically, Lu Da would not have deliberately deceived him with Fan Zhongyan, but the "Guangsha Camp" has been effective now. More than a dozen temples in Hangzhou have also started construction at the same time, employing thousands of civil servants. Small vendors led by the government have also formed large-scale small markets near the construction site, which can solve the livelihoods of more than 10,000 victims at once. He believed that it was done by his grandson who used to only eat, drink, play and have just turned aside recently, how could he believe it? What's more, Fan Zhongyan said frankly that he would dig the foundation of the grain business today. Obviously, it was already prepared. With his status and status, he would not talk nonsense in such a place. So how could it be his grandson's plan?

Chen Yan frowned and asked Chen Yue: "Didn't you say you came to the government office to meet the officials in the yamen?"

Chen Yue still lowered his eyebrows and glanced at Fan Zhongyan: "Mr. Fan is also an official in the court..."

"You..." Chen Yan glared at Chen Yue, not knowing what to say for a moment. This kid did say before that he met the officials in the yamen. Everyone thought he was a small official in the government office. Maybe he was a small official. Who would have thought it would be Fan Zhongyan?

"When I was outside the door, I heard Shangwen say that there was a way to raise money, so why not now I will say to me and listen to it." Lu Da saw the expressions of the grandfather and grandson before, and Chen Yue secretly glared at him a few times. After thinking about it, he pinched his nose to help him save the situation, so as not to come and squeeze him again when Chen Yan was away.

"Well, I was not thinking carefully just now. Let's talk to my grandfather and the adults after I got home." Chen Yue said respectfully.

"You..." Lu Da glared at Chen Yue, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Fan Zhongyan smiled and said, "Shang Wen said this here. I will go to the food store later, which will inevitably cause shocks. Although I have already made some mistakes, I may not be able to make trouble for a while. Tell me earlier and I will feel more confident later.

Chen Yan also said, "Let me tell me here." He was still a little suspicious now, and couldn't help but want to listen to his grandson's plan earlier, whether it was as Lu Da said, or they were deliberately praising it.

Chen Yue had no choice but to scratch his head and said, "The book once said: 'First be to defeat yourself, then to defeat the enemy.' He also said 'One force is to surrender ten times'..."

"Okay," Chen Yan waved his hand, "Stop talking about those stupid things, just talk about the topic."

Chen Yue rolled his eyes in his heart. Didn’t you tell me at home that you would quote the classics? He cleared his throat and covered up his embarrassment, and said softly: “Actually it’s not a plan, but I can guard against smallpox.”

The sound was not loud, but it was like thunder sounding in everyone's ears in the hall. The three of them looked at Chen Yue in shock. It was no exaggeration to describe the expression on their faces as horror, and they were stunned and motionless.

Chen Yue touched his face: "Is there anything dirty on his face?"

Wake up by Chen Yue's words, the three of them reacted one after another: "What?!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"I'm a little older, can you say it again?"

Chen Yue knew that smallpox was very difficult to treat in this era, but in later generations, everyone knew the most primitive prevention and control methods. He did not expect that the three of them would have such a big reaction. After a while of shock, he repeated it, "I can prevent smallpox...what happened?"!~!
