Heaven's Martial Fate

Chapter 959
I don't know, I was surprised!
Even though Jia Rong knew what she was doing, she was also aware of the monetary interests involved, which was too enviable.

The pure income for one year definitely exceeds 300 million taels!
As time goes by, the income of Ning Fu and himself will only increase every year.

Not to mention reaching the terrifying tens of millions of taels, even the level of a million taels is enough for too many forces and existences to come over and take a share.

That is to say, he was not in the court, otherwise he might have been attacked by open guns and dark arrows long ago.

Time passed slowly, and the withered and yellow leaves fell with the north wind, and the cold winter of this year soon arrived.

For some reason, the winter this year was extremely cold.

Winter has just entered, and the temperature in the capital has dropped sharply, and there are even heavy snowfalls ahead of schedule.

Accompanied by the bitter cold wind, it was as uncomfortable to blow on the face as if being cut by a cold knife.

The people in the capital were caught off guard, and in a short period of time, they froze to death due to the cold and injured a lot.

It wasn't that he was unable to raise clothing and fuel to keep out the cold, but that he didn't react and was hit by a wave of sudden cold weather.

He has experienced several worlds, and the tragedies he has seen are naturally countless.

It doesn't matter if some things don't happen, but if anything happens, it will be exposed, which will make the present and the court feel better.

Moreover, most of the houses in the countryside are thatched huts. Wherever they can withstand the toss of the snowstorm, a large area must collapse.

In modern society, her behavior will naturally not have any problems, and there are many channels for doing good deeds, which can fully meet the needs.

After all, it is not difficult to find a temporary job in the capital, on the contrary it is very easy.

For a while, the medical hall became one of the busiest places in the entire capital.

The basic meanings are the same: it is that the dignitary bosses sympathize with the difficulty of living for the common people, and in order to ensure that the supply of briquettes in the capital does not have any problems, they only sell the briquettes at a price slightly higher than the cost price!

However, due to the impact of temperature changes, Qin Keqing and the children naturally couldn't go out at will, and even the girls' school was on an emergency holiday.

But in the era of feudal ethics, Jia Rong stopped Qin Keqing's actions.

But in this way, the consumption of briquettes is also increasing layer by layer!

Therefore, she planned to pray for the child in the name of giving some rice, flour, grain, oil, warm clothes, etc. to the common people in the city, as a little effort.

You must know that not only the capital was hit by cold weather, but the situation outside the city was even worse.Most of the official roads are covered by heavy snow, which is quite difficult to walk.

Of course, things are very different now than in the past.

In the normal historical period, the Little Ice Age is coming, and the world will encounter continuous natural disasters.

That's right, Jia Rong and the honorable bosses, this is a good deal for today.

Of course, under such circumstances, it is impossible not to raise the price at all, and it cannot prevent others from making money, right?

Originally two pennies a piece, now it will become four pennies a piece!
There are those who are more ruthless, and the proposed price increase is even greater!
Don't look at the price increase of just a few pennies, you must know that briquettes are daily consumables. When the cold weather is raging, at least four of them will be burned a day, otherwise there is no way to resist the turbulent cold.

He explained the doorway inside carefully to Qin Keqing, and then said that it would not be too late for the Ning Mansion to follow up when the imperial court opened a warehouse to distribute grain and porridge for relief.

Unfortunately, their useless parents are extremely defensive.

Even if the temperature outside dropped sharply, it did not affect the normal use of floor heating and the warmth of the bedroom.

Didn't you see that even the briquettes sold by the Ministry of Internal Affairs have increased in price?

Yigan owns a large coal mine and participates in the briquette business. The honorable bosses are all excited and want to take the opportunity to raise the price of briquette.

In the future, I'm afraid I will be busy.

If the price increase is too large, the lowest level of common people will not be able to afford it at all!
It was Jia Rong who came forward in person to stop the crazy actions of the honorable bosses.

These guys are so dark-hearted that they want to double the price of briquettes.

In other words, Dagan will also encounter the harsh climate and environment encountered by Daming?
Standing at the door of the study, looking up at the gloomy sky and the heavy snowfall, I feel a little heavy.

Don't say that those who are clean are self-cleaning. It is a good thing to do good deeds, but in the end it brings unnecessary trouble to the family, and no one can feel happy.

Not only that, the number of people affected by the disaster outside the city is even greater, and refugees have already gathered under the city gate.

The royal family and the imperial court have not done any good deeds yet. You, a noble minister, are so active, do you have other purposes?

As the patriarch, he immediately sent enough briquettes to the family members to keep out the cold, so that it would not be a problem to survive the cold winter safely.

There are so many patients suffering from cold and cold that the medical center is simply overwhelmed.

Afterwards, the Nanming court persisted for more than 80 years and was completely finished.

It can only be said that fortunately there are basically no refugees in the capital, otherwise this wave of sudden cold weather would definitely kill the refugees in the capital immediately.

I just don't know, in this world of Red Mansions where immortals live, will there be climate changes like the Little Ice Age?

At this time, honeycomb played a big role!

At least, compared with the firewood that needs a lot of space and space to store up, honeycomb has huge advantages.

No matter when, there will be no shortage of people who only have interests in their eyes, and who dare to hoard money in times of crisis and make black-hearted money.

As long as you are not a fool, you will know that someone is playing tricks inside!

At this time, he has basically reached the level of invulnerability to cold and heat, so he naturally doesn't care about the sudden cooling of the weather.

As for the Daqian Dynasty, it was just over a hundred years before the founding of the country.

But his heart still couldn't be as hard as iron, and he turned a blind eye to those tragedies in the world that could be reversed.

No one knows how long the cold weather can last, and how long will the heavy snow fall?
Even the mansions of dignitaries and eunuchs were often frostbitten by the sudden cold weather. After all, it was not winter yet, and no one would wrap themselves as tightly as zongzi.

Among other things, the reserves of the major grain shops in the capital alone are enough to support the people of the capital for a month.

It can be said that the Ming Dynasty in normal history fell under endless natural disasters for decades.

Right now, there is no such thing as cotton cloth to keep out the cold, and a sudden change in temperature will do a lot of damage to the body.

That is to say, when Nanming was over, Daqian Taizu succeeded in fighting for hegemony in the Central Plains and established the Daqian Dynasty.

But the problem is that the cold weather came too suddenly, and within a day or two it was snowing heavily, completely blocking the official road leading to the outside world from the capital.

The prices of various herbal medicines for treating wind and cold have skyrocketed, and the cost of treatment has risen again and again in a short period of time, causing the families of patients to complain.

Qin Keqing was kind-hearted and knew that such cold weather would do great harm to ordinary people.

Even the lowest level of common people's homes have some stocks.

On the ethnology side, there are also enough facilities to keep out the cold, so it will not be affected, and it is still operating normally.

However, the sudden drop in temperature in the capital made him think of something.

Since you have done a good deed, it is natural to publicize it well.

The pre-Ming Dynasty started by Zhu Yuanzhang ended in the era of the Great Ming God of War Zhu Qizhen, and Xianguo was only in its early 60s.

Of course, there are also those bastards among the tribe.

For example, the temperature plummets in winter, the continuous snowfall will continue for many years in the future, there will be continuous droughts, and other catastrophic disasters, and the rotation will be endless.

In the sudden cold weather, the effect of using briquettes to resist the cold is quite good, and the cost is very low.

For example, the Jinmen side can also divert a considerable part of the refugees. As long as it is properly organized, it will be a new force for construction.

Otherwise, the price increase of food materials will only climb upwards slowly, rather than increasing in a straight line.

When the cold weather lasts for a long time and the temperature drops again and again, if there is no house to help cover it, one can imagine how serious the consequences will be.

At this time in the capital, no matter ordinary people or dignitaries, they are used to the existence of briquettes.

However, this is the case, first the temperature dropped sharply, and then there was continuous heavy snow, which caused considerable damage in the civilian areas of the city.

According to Jia Rong, the weather will last at least half a month, or even longer.

If we follow the normal historical process, this time happens to be the Little Ice Age, right?

All of a sudden, the situation of Jingcheng is very dangerous!
In such cold weather, it is not easy for all kinds of food supplies transported through the Grand Canal to reach the capital smoothly at this time.

Not to mention the consumption of money, food, briquettes, and possible medical expenses, it can easily put an ordinary family in financial trouble.

Fortunately, the bedrooms in the Ning Mansion have already been remodeled under Jia Rong's guidance, and all of them are heated with floor heating.

Whenever there are refugees in the capital, they will be recruited by the honorable family who owns a large coal mine. Anyway, there will always be a lack of sufficient labor in the coal mine.

In today's fury, his understanding of the situation in the capital is absolutely unexpectedly powerful.

If judged according to the normal historical process, this time is the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty.

In the morning, I got the briquettes distributed by the clan, and they sold them at a high price in the afternoon, which is simply not human.

I just don't know, whether the big work that has been in peace for a long time can withstand such repeated shocks?
Among other things, it is hard to say whether there is enough grain in Changping warehouses in various places including the capital.

Fortunately, the logistics unit on the ethnology side is enough to provide opportunities for self-reliance, so that their poor family will not starve to death.

When the time comes for the refugees to block the door, it will be the time for all the officials in the capital and the bigwigs to show their strength.

Soon, there were many related rumors in the capital city well.

That is to say, life has been much easier in recent years, and most of the low-level civilians have some savings in their hands, otherwise they would not have the guts to send their patients to the hospital.

These guys are cancerous tumors in the clan. They only care about being chic, and they don't care about the existence of their family members.

If it weren't for those grain shops, and behind the hoarding merchants, most of the people standing there were relatives of the emperor, and I'm afraid they would have to punish them severely.

Their ability to resist risks is extremely poor. When the government turned their attention to them, the number of casualties was estimated to be quite astonishing.

Moreover, the rapid increase in transportation costs and labor costs has caused prices to take off, and the prices of food and materials have almost changed every day.

There were more than one hundred casualties alone, and thousands of houses were collapsed by the heavy snow. This was only a few days' loss.

Especially the elderly and children in the civilian areas, as well as the weak, were killed and injured by the sudden cold.

No one will know that the entire Daqian Dynasty will encounter various natural disasters and man-made disasters derived from natural disasters in the future.

Nothing else, the transport of briquettes, right?
If you still feel dirty and tired, help the government to clean the streets for a fee, this can always be done well, right?
In his opinion, those who really need relief are the people in the villages outside the city.

Finally, after discussion, it was decided to increase the price of each briquette by one penny!

It's not that he is cold-hearted, but that there are unspoken rules for doing good deeds.

Jia Rong's martial arts practice has reached a very advanced level.

With the same rapid increase in labor costs in the capital right now, even simple hard labor can still earn wages to support a family.

He had read the historical classics of this world before, and the situation was actually similar to the normal historical world. The real bifurcation point only appeared in Daming.

To be honest, Jia Rong didn't think that the people in the capital needed relief, and even if there were, it was a very small number of families with special circumstances.

The capital was hit by the cold, and there were even many casualties. Chaotang and Shuntian Mansion responded quickly and organized disaster relief immediately.

Ahem, there are naturally many guys who want to fish in troubled waters and make a fortune by taking advantage of the cold weather, and there are quite a few of them.

She didn't doubt Jia Rong's words at all. Following Jia Rong's deduction, she could easily know the difficult situation that the people in the capital would face.

Of course, it will depend on whether the imperial court cooperates or not.

As the cold weather continued, the snowflakes stopped and fell from time to time, and the weather was so gloomy that the sun could never be seen. The number of people affected by the disaster in the capital was increasing.

Not only the rural people in the suburbs of Beijing, but also the disaster-stricken people in the entire Zhili, and even the people in the hinterland of the Central Plains who were hit by the cold disaster may organize groups to come to the capital to pray for food.

As a result, the transportation cost of honeycomb coal will naturally increase. It's not that the big bosses deliberately want to increase the price.

He is in a bad mood today. While urging the court to quickly operate disaster relief, he is constantly sending envoys out of the city, trying to find out the specific situation outside the capital.

There is no way, the weather is too cold, the snowflakes that appear from time to time melt and freeze, and before the frozen snowflakes continue to melt, new snowflakes fall and continue to freeze.

As a result, layers of ice crystals will appear and freeze solid, and they will easily slide to the ground with one foot...

　After the fourth day of junior high school, I was even busier.
