Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 247 Chapter 247

Mu Yu actually kind of minded the two of them staying.

Zheng Cheng is the shrewdest businessman she has ever seen, and he demands high returns for everything he does. Now he plans to stay in Huangsha City for a long time, obviously he has a plan, and the plan is not small.

He will not come here for those trivial small businesses in Huangsha City like Yuan Rong, a young man whose mind is trapped by love. Of course, these small businesses can make a lot of money if they are done well, but compared to the status of an imperial merchant, It's all small bucks.

What is Zheng Cheng plotting?Herbal business?or more?
Wen Wang is not Yuan Rong, what is he plotting?
But scruples are scruples, it is wrong to waste food because of choking, and those who should be allowed to stay should stay. In the long run, this is a good deal.

What's more, just these two people and the caravan of a hundred people brought by them can't cause too much trouble in the current Huangsha City.

As long as they know their interests and don't make too much noise, she can still accept it.

The two of them stayed in Huangsha City like this.

Mu Yu observed them for a while, Zheng Cheng began to open various shops in Huangsha City, and asked people to inquire about various news, Wen Wang came to Mu Mansion every day to talk to her and see his two younger sisters, everything seemed to be fine. It was quite normal, so she was relieved.

At that time, it was halfway through June, and seeing that Huangsha City was getting more and more prosperous, the relocation of the third batch of Qu people was also on the agenda.

Because of the experience of the previous two times, there was no accident this time, and the relocation was completed smoothly.

The people of Huangsha City, who had long been accustomed to these things, didn't take it seriously at all, and lived their lives as they wanted, but Wen Wang and Zheng Chengcheng, who had just arrived for a short time, were different, and the two were shocked again.

How can someone move away from their homeland and settle down quickly and accept a new life in just two or three days?How can this be?

The two carefully researched the beginning and end of this matter, and Zheng Cheng came to the conclusion that Mu Yu is tolerant and generous, and having money can make ghosts turn the clock, so naturally he is willing to give more money.

Wen Wang went deeper into the research. He felt that the key point was to get rid of the patriarch, and it also gave these people real benefits. Not only could they live better now, but money and the support they could live on in the future also gave them real benefits. hope.

He learned a lot from this incident.

It didn't take long before the end of July, when the grain was ripe and the grain was harvested.

Food in Jinzhou, Bazhou and other places is cropped twice a year. In Huangsha City, there are relatively few crops that can be cropped twice a year.

But that was all in the past. With the grain seeds provided by Muyu, the drought and cold resistance ability of the grain has been greatly enhanced, and two crops a year is not a problem.

Because of the huge harvest, the people in Huangsha City have a great affection for farming. They planted a lot of land, especially the Qu people brought a lot of camels. Mu Yu asked people to put these camels into production and rent them for the people. Purchase to plow the land, which greatly saves manpower and time.

Therefore, although there were only 5000 people in Huangsha City before, they planted land that 1 people may not be able to plant, and harvested food that 2 people may not be able to harvest.

This is also rare in Jinzhou.

Zheng Cheng was overjoyed. With so much food, the business can be promoted better and more money can be made. This is not food, it is clearly a golden mountain!

Wen Wang took the initiative to ask Mu Yu for help, and he also wanted to learn by himself. Mu Yu agreed, and he devoted himself to harvesting grain.

Although there is a lot of land planted in Huangsha City, the morale of the people is high, and the harvesting arrangements are reasonable. It will be over in less than half a month. I hope Wen Wang can learn enough in this half month.

This time, Muyu was fully prepared for the harvest. He ordered a large amount of grain in Jinzhou through Yuan Rong early on, and prepared the money to be distributed early.

At the end of July, grain was put into warehouses, money was put into pockets, and the whole Huangsha City was filled with the joy of a good harvest.

At the beginning of August, everything changed, and the fast horse came from the southern capital, bringing a big news.

"The Emperor is dead!"

……

As soon as Mu Yu got the news, he immediately called a meeting of people from the government office to discuss how to deal with it.

The death of the old emperor was unexpected and reasonable.

After all, the news came out that the old emperor was sick and lingering in bed a long time ago, but he still lived strong for these few years. Who would have thought that he would live for so long?

However, in fact, it doesn't make much difference whether he is alive or dead. After all, before he became seriously ill, he could no longer hold any rights.

So the death of the old emperor just lifted a fig leaf, allowing the power struggle to appear naked in front of the world.

The old emperor is dead, who will be the next emperor?
Is it the eleventh prince who is just three years old as stated in the imperial decree?
Can a three-year-old child secure the throne in the face of multiple competitions?

Who can secure the throne?
It can be foreseen that there will inevitably be another bloodbath next.

However, all of this has little to do with Huangsha City. The only regret is that it cannot be recognized by the court in a short time.

She has not been recognized by the court as the city lord. There are some problems with her legality, and there are some hidden dangers, but they are not serious.

But troubled times will always come to an end. With a legal identity, whether it is doing business or doing other things, it is more convenient and safer, so she originally planned to find a relationship during this year to get the approval of the court.

Now that the old emperor is dead, and before the new emperor is firmly seated on the throne, this matter is probably suspended.

Forget it, just wait.

To manage Huangsha City well and improve her own strength, will she be afraid that the court will not recognize her?
After arranging all the preparations, she left the government office.

In the Mu Mansion, Yang Shuang, Zheng Cheng, Wen Wang, Yuan Rong and other members of her own party had already been waiting for her, and they also had many things to discuss.

If the government is in turmoil, business will inevitably be affected, but the impact is not enough. The key is that there will be wars, and then there will be a situation where people will be devastated, people will be displaced, and victims of disasters will be rampant.

Not only will money not be earned, but life may also be lost.

Mu Yu has been looking at the map of Southern Qi recently, and has some understanding of the main forces in Southern Qi, especially the forces near Huangsha City, so she is not so worried.

I briefly talked to them and suggested that they should not hoard goods in business to avoid too much loss. I also suggested that they pay attention to safety. If the place where the safety is uncertain, they can stay in Huangsha City. Huangsha City is absolutely safe.

In the end, tell them not to worry too much, and they may not really fight.

After sending these people away, Zheng Cheng and Wen Wang stayed behind.

Mu Yu rubbed the end of his eyes and thought to himself, are they going to confess?

not at all.

"An hour ago, Nandu sent new news."

"The new emperor has also passed away."
