The first free king of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 352
"Hey, I don't know how many people like this have been froze, starved, and hysterical here. It's not too many for one more, and a lot for one less. It's just that he can still wake up a little bit occasionally."

The patrolling guard steward sighed, after all, he has seen a lot when he is older, and some things may become numb after seeing too much...

When this side was noisy, the guard over there had already trotted back, but there was no quilt in his hand.

"Um, Second Uncle, there are no more quilts in the workshop... Yes, yes, Miss is here..."

Not only did he come alone, but behind him was a graceful figure all over.

It was Kong Lingyue with her maid~
"See you Miss!"

The manager hurriedly saluted, the person who managed the order of the disaster victims in Sijiao Mountain was exactly the person sent by the Confucian government.

Tang Sufan took the initiative to wave hello.

"Lingyue, why are you here?"

After not seeing each other for two days, Kong Lingyue's face, which was as clear as a beautiful jade, was visibly haggard.

It seems that she has been very busy these few days.

"I happened to be going home and asked my grandpa to help find some food. I happened to meet my guard and told you your name, so come over and have a look. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be here later, and you will run away~"

Although she couldn't hide the tiredness on her face, she was still so charming and generous.

Hearing the conversation between these two people, the steward was all a bit annoyed, and sure enough, the young man and the young lady knew each other.

it looks like...

tsk tsk~
Lingyue, good guy, there seem to be few young masters in the entire capital who can call their young lady Lingyue?
Could it be that the royal family is playing a game of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger?
"Does Mr. Tang need a quilt?"

Afterwards, Tang Sufan and Kong Lingyue probably had to talk about it, and Kong Lingyue said in a slightly embarrassed way: "Young Master Tang, there are really not many beddings in the workshop, and the ones that can be used have already been given to the refugees who have already been brought into the workshop." It's even worse, I'm trying to figure out a way..."

Tang Sufan frowned and nodded: "I see..."

Then he turned to Liu Xiao and said, "Liu Xiao, go to the car and bring me my dry fur blanket~"

Now that I said it, let's find a way to complete this kindness, but all I can find now is the blanket in my car.

Liu Xiao glanced at the refugees around the shack, and paused obviously.

In the end, he nodded and followed Tang Sufan's words.

"Good boy..."

"Miss, let's talk, the little one will leave first..."

After Kong Lingyue nodded, she followed Tang Sufan to the other side.

"Lingyue, is there a shortage of food now?"

"It's very scarce. At present, we can only provide for the needs of the workshop, and we can only eat one meal a day, so we can't do porridge outside, so I'm trying to find a way to let Grandpa go again. Come forward, and then look for it to see if you can find a batch of food..."

"Otherwise, with so many refugees outside this square, I don't know how many people will starve to death..."

Kong Lingyue glanced worriedly at the refugees everywhere, her eyes full of unbearable.

Since she was a child, she has been well-clothed and well-fed, and she has really seen countless hungry people in the world in the past few days. Every day she lays her pillow on the bed, her mind is full of those pairs of eyes full of despair and numbness.

This is definitely not a small mental blow to a lady who is determined to do something practical for the common people...

"Come out again?"

Tang Sufan frowned, grasping the point.

"Could it be that based on Kong Lao's face, can't he find a batch of grain in Chang'an City?"

A trace of embarrassment appeared on Kong Lingyue's face, and she only nodded slightly.

"In the past, the price of food in Chang'an was very high, and people were panic-stricken. After all, I don't know if the price of food will rise again, so now the city of Chang'an is full of rare food like gold. Grandpa came forward to find some people, but he could find them. There are... not many..."

Tang Sufan touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment, after all, he was generally 'credited' for the previous skyrocketing food prices in Chang'an City.

But he didn't expect that even with Kong Yingda's famous brand, he couldn't get food now.

"Then how many workshops are counted now?"

Kong Lingyue thought for a while, and then said: "Now there are 730 refugees who are given priority in the workshop, and outside the workshop..."

"What happened outside the square?"

"Now there are more than [-] people outside the square, including women, children and the elderly..."

The number Kong Lingyue said made Tang Sufan stunned——

In just two or three days, nearly 20,000 people have gathered!

At the feet of the damn emperor, is he going to rebel or something?
Tang Sufan even had the bitter thought of running away for a moment, this is not a job done by humans, he is being taken advantage of!

Listening to the string of numbers, Tang Sufan couldn't help but rubbed his eyebrows again.

The situation is much more serious than he imagined!

Because of the previous wave of food prices, even if you have money, you can’t find food, and it’s useless to have a pile of money.

unless--

Now I am willing to buy food at a high price.

Thinking of this, Tang Sufan couldn't help feeling a headache. He used his own tricks to raise the price of food in Chang'an so high.

Emperor Li Ernagou found food to relieve disasters in other states and counties, but who would have thought that his home would be stolen now!

And he has to pay for the bad consequences!

His grandma, when he thought of buying food at a high price, it was really a good reincarnation, God forgive who!
"Now... let's try to find food first, and I will hurry up and think of a way. It's been a long time, and there may be some troubles outside... Where is Mr. Kong, can I still find food?"

The flint has already landed on the instep, I can't wait.

"This... Grandpa also approached some grain merchants in Chang'an City University before, but they all shied away and said that there was not enough food. They said that they could sell them to us in small batches, but if there were too many, they refused to say anything..."

Tang Sufan closed his eyes and let out a breath. It was obvious that someone was playing tricks behind his back.

A scholastic attitude, a group of merchants and grain merchants, these grain merchants are not fools, this is already an obvious stumbling block, no need to think about it, they are the bastards of some aristocratic families.

As long as the workshop collapses, the group of refugees will really starve to death in Chang'an City, where the price of food is like gold!

When the time comes and afterwards, the family will definitely make use of the problem, whether it is kicking or stepping, it is not up to them...

His grandma's, wait for me to calm down and see if I trick you and you're done?

I won't kill you, I'll write my name upside down!
Tang Sufan scolded the aristocratic family in his heart, and dissed his cheap old man even more severely.

Will this dog emperor be the emperor?

The warehouse where your future son-in-law will be cheated into money is empty!

While complaining in his heart, a gentle smile appeared on his face: "It's okay, Lingyue has worked hard these days, please support me these two days, I will find a way later..."

fine?

But that is 20,000 people, presumably even Mr. Tang is very embarrassed...

Kong Lingyue really couldn't see that she was fine, but she could only do her best, and nodded with a smile.

"Ok."

"By the way, Lingyue, here are some ways to manage this group of refugees. You watch it first, and then I will deal with the food issue!"

After Tang Sufan finished speaking, he handed over the few pieces of paper that he had been holding all along.

Kong Lingyue took it over and washed it for a glance, but instead of admiring as expected, she frowned that beautiful eyebrow.
