Chapter 757 Beauty and Country 5
After all, Jingdu City is the capital city of the Great Zhou Kingdom. Those poor families whose houses were destroyed by the heavy snow naturally flocked to the affluent Jingdu City in large numbers.

No matter how the emperor issued a new decree to save the disaster.

Because of the snow disaster, some of the victims stayed in the area, waiting to open warehouses for disaster relief, and naturally, some flocked to the capital city. After all, all the people stayed in the same place, and they were afraid that the situation would not be alleviated.

As a result, the dispatch of disaster relief officials has become unstoppable.

At present, there are many people in the imperial court who are willing to volunteer.

Of course, there are also recommendations, and the recommended candidates are mainly concentrated on the Seventh Prince and the Crown Prince.

Neither the Seventh Prince nor the Crown Prince was willing to let go of such a great opportunity to make a name for himself.

In the post of disaster relief official, it was not decided whether it was the Seventh Prince or the Crown Prince, and another incident happened in the court.

It snows all over the sky, and there are flying stars in the sky.

A big rock shaped like a peach blossom fell from the sky and hit Huangqi Mountain.

Huangqi Mountain is the Fengshui treasure mountain where the Dazhou Kingdom is located, and there is a forbidden area in Huangqi Mountain that only royal people can enter.

After Si Tianjian learned of this situation, he insisted that the continuous snow disaster in Dazhou Kingdom this year was caused by the Peach Blossom Tribulation.

Peach blossoms, the one who caused this disaster must be a woman.

Since the peach blossom stone fell on Huangqi Mountain, it affected the national line of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

In order to stop this disaster, it is necessary to suppress this catastrophe.

As the saying goes, to untie the bell, one must tie it.

Since the Peach Blossom Stone fell on Huangqi Mountain, it means that the person who can suppress the Peach Blossom Calamity must be a member of the royal family.

As soon as this rumor came out, some people began to secretly suspect who was the peach blossom robbery in the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Hearing what Taohua Jie said, Xia Chiwan smiled coldly.

It's really a clumsy method.

Therefore, Xia Chiwan didn't put too much thought on this peach blossom calamity.

Snowstorms continued, and rice and grain were in short supply.

Sure enough, just like in the previous life, those profiteers drove up the price of rice one after another.

As a result, it is very difficult for the people to buy rice.

The price of rice grains has doubled and tripled.

At this time, the rice and grain shop under the name of Yun Qiandu took out a lot of grain and sold it at the original price.

However, those who can buy must be ordinary people.

Cut off the people in each household and buy them at the rate of three liters of rice per person.

(One liter of rice is equivalent to four catties of rice today)
Because the rice seller is Xia Chiwan, it is quite easy for Xia Chiwan to obtain the household registration books of the local people.

After all, Xia Chiwan's move was a good deed, and with Xia Chiwan's status, the local county magistrate naturally strongly supported it.

In the event of natural disasters such as snowstorms, the common people eat rice, so naturally it is not as severe as usual.

Therefore, if one person buys three liters of rice, the whole family can save some food, and they can eat it for one to two months.

As soon as Xia Chiwan made this move, the people in the entire capital city asked Xia Chiwan to buy rice.

At this time, no one would think there was too much food.

Xia Chiwan's actions really made those wealthy businessmen in the capital really pissed off.

But Xia Chiwan's identity was there.

They were able to warn other people and even smash up their shops.

But whoever dares to smash the shop of Xiangye's daughter is not afraid of Xiangye's care, and people from the General's Mansion will kill her at the door?

Therefore, no matter how much those wealthy businessmen hated Xia Chiwan, they could only grit their teeth and endure it.
