After instructing this matter, Gu Chengyu suddenly had a headache again.

How can this be done without bread and silver? The imperial court did not say anything about the food for disaster relief, but only said that it was 50,000 taels of silver.

Yesterday, he was cheeky and asked the businessmen for a lot of food, so he couldn't let people donate it, right? That's a bit of a stretch.

Silver can't fill your stomach, if you want to buy grain, but the price of grain is so high, how much can you buy for 50,000 taels of silver?

Not to mention, another 20,000 taels of this are used to strengthen the river embankment.

Is it really necessary to open a granary? What about after opening the granary? With so many victims, there will always be a day when the granary will be empty.

The granary must never be emptied, otherwise there will be another accident, so what? Even if Gu Chengyu moved the grain in the granary, he had to think of something to make up for it quickly.

Recently, food prices have remained high, and they have been monopolized by a few large households. How can they be willingly sold at a low price?

Gu Chengyu thought as he walked. Suddenly, he had an idea, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and his steps were much faster than before.

When he returned to the study, Gu Chengyu immediately recruited a guard from the C-character generation.

This person's name is Bingqi, and he is considered to be the more clever among the C-character generation.

"Bingqi, meet your lord!" Regarding Gu Chengyu's sudden summons, Bingqi's heart was both excited and a little apprehensive.

I don't know what adults are looking for him for, if you want to say that you want to reuse him, Bingqi thinks it's unlikely.

There are a lot of seniors of the T-shaped generation around adults, not to mention the head of Mo and the Yan manager, these newcomers who have just come out of the house, can't get close to the adult's body.

Seeing that Bingqi was very nervous, Gu Chengyu smiled.

"I asked you to come here, because I wanted you to do something! Mingmo said that you are calm and clever. If this is done, come and do things by my side! ”

There are more and more people under him, and those who are capable, Gu Chengyu will give them a chance. Selecting the best and choosing the fittest, is an eternal truth.

The guards of the C-character generation are now in charge of Mingmo, and if Gu Chengyu wants to promote people, he always has to give Mingmo some face.

Bingqi was overjoyed when he heard that the adults wanted to reuse him, but he didn't expect that there would be a pie in the sky on his head.

At the same time, he also felt a little more grateful to Mingmo in his heart, it seems that it was because of Mr. Mo's recommendation, otherwise where would the adults notice him?

"You have all been staying in Yingnanfu for the past few days, and you must have some understanding of the situation in Yingnanfu. You take those servants and open the granary, take out a hundred stone of grain, and first deal with the food of the victims for these two days. I would ask Mingmo to find some craftsmen in the city and build the shanty and porridge shed first. Do you hear me clearly by taking people to the porridge shed every day to bring the food they need? ”

In fact, this thing is not difficult, Mingmo and they all have something to do, and they can't be counted on Mingmo anymore for such a thing.

Bingqi did not hesitate and immediately agreed.

Even if the imperial court did not issue an official document to open the granary, Bingqi was not afraid. Afraid of what? The sky fell, and there was a tall man on top of it.

The adults in his family are not afraid, so he needs to worry? He is a subordinate, and he only needs to do what he is told.

Gu Chengyu's confident appearance gave Bingqi a lot of confidence.

After Bingqi received the order to go out, Mingmo entered the house.

"Mingmo, you take the silver taels and go to Fucheng farther away to buy some rice and grain." Gu Chengyu rubbed his chin, pondered for a moment, and then commanded Mingmo.

Ming Mo was a little surprised, "My lord, isn't there rice and grain to sell in this Yingnan Mansion?" Why should we go so far? ”

Gu Chengyu sneered, "Those people all hoard rice and grain in their granaries and refuse to sell them. Even if I want to buy their food, it must be sky-high. Even though I have made it sternly stated that it is not allowed to sell grain at high prices. But people don't sell food, saying that they keep it for their own food, so how can you bear it? ”

This is called a policy at the top and a countermeasure at the bottom.

Keep the grain in their hands, and these people will not worry about selling. When there was a shortage of food in the city, the people and the victims of the disaster ran out of food, and in the end, there were so many people who begged their families to sell grain at a high price.

However, will Gu Chengyu let such a thing happen? Of course not.

"But my lord, a little farther from here is Sunan Mansion. The food we need is not a small amount, and the villain is worried that Sunan Mansion will get the news, and the price of grain will be raised at that time, and we will spend more money. And to go to southern Jiangsu to transport grain, the road is far away, there is a lot of loss on the road, and there is a lot of time delayed, some of which are not cost-effective! ”

Mingmo's face was full of sorrow, and she expressed her doubts to Gu Chengyu.

Gu Chengyu couldn't help nodding secretly, as he grew older, Mingmo finally had some opinions of his own, which was a good change.

Mingmo has always been steady, and this time she thought very carefully.

"It's a long way to go, and it's definitely going to be a bit more expensive to go by road. The time to travel by water is shorter, so it is not a delay, anyway, there is grain support from the granary. As for whether the price of grain in southern Jiangsu will rise, we don't need to worry about this. Because you only need to buy it twice, and you only need to buy about 10 koku each time. ”

Gu Chengyu smiled mysteriously and shook the fan in his hand, looking chic and calm.

Mingmo was confused by Gu Chengyu's words.

"My lord! I'm afraid that ten stones can only be eaten for two days, and it has to be gruel. Seeing that Mingmo's face seemed to be full of question marks, he was still distressed.

Gu Chengyu then said: "Ten stones of grain are naturally not enough, and those that are not enough will be filled by the granary for the time being. However, the specific amount of grain we use in the granary every day must be kept secret, and I have already called Bingqi to do it! When the time comes, I'll ask him a few more words. ”

Mingmo was really stunned by his own adults this time, since he still had to rely on the granary's subsidy, why did he have to make another move and go to Sunan Mansion to buy food?

Seeing Mingmo's doubts, Gu Chengyu continued: "You go to Sunan Mansion to buy ten stones of grain, but you can't only bring back ten stones. ”

Gu Chengyu looked at Mingmo, whose brain had become a paste, and told Mingmo his plan.

After hearing this, Mingmo suddenly realized, and his expression was full of admiration when he looked at Gu Chengyu. His family's plan is simply wonderful.

Let these people be greedy, and this time they will lose all their money.

......

A girl dressed as a girl walked to the corner gate of the backyard of the government office, looking at the two officials guarding the corner gate, she couldn't help but secretly hate.

Master Li was suddenly arrested, which made her really panic.

Now that she is trapped in this inner courtyard, she wants to go out to buy food, but it can't be done.

Lord Li's family belongs to the family of the convict, and he must not be released from the house now.

There are two officials and several guards in the backyard of the palace, how can she, as a woman in the inner courtyard, get out?

The girl was so anxious that she walked around twice, and then she straightened her clothes and prepared to try it to see if she could get out of the house.

"Stop, who's coming?" Bingwu saw that a girl was coming, and he was getting closer and closer, so he immediately raised his vigilance.
