Chapter 177 Laba Porridge
The prefect of Yingzhou was full of calculations. In the past two days, he had figured out Ji Shiliu's temperament. Qian Yongchang offered a price of 10 taels.
Because Qian Yongchang doesn't know how to taste, he just bought it back as a decoration.As long as he is willing to share half of Ji Shiliu's money, Ji Shiliu will agree to hide Qian Yongchang.
After he tasted the sweetness, now, Ji Shiliu told him that Qian Yongchang, after seeing the jade statue of Lord Yu Gu Shiyin many years ago, would never forget it all his life, and he always wanted to buy it at a sky-high price, but, Lord Yu Reluctant to part with one another.
However, not many people have seen that jade statue, even if he copied one and sold it to Qian Yongchang, Qian Yongchang might not be able to see it.
The prefect of Yingzhou only felt that he was going to make a fortune.
Feng Xi and Wei Leng, what jade statue?She doesn't know at all.
Who would the woman on the jade statue be?
Seeing that she was silent, the prefect of Yingzhou wanted to persuade her again, but Ji Shiliu, who was behind her, hooked her fingers and signaled him to go over.
"Master Sixteen, is it possible that Miss Xia is not willing?" The prefect of Yingzhou frowned, not wanting to miss such a precious thing.
Ji Shiliu shook her head mysteriously, "It's not that she doesn't want to, but she's a little worried."
"What are you worried about?"
Ji Shiliu leaned into his ear and said, "You know Prince Yu's temper. If you make a fake and my father-in-law buys it, one day Prince Yu finds out and someone makes an identical jade statue. Isn't he very angry?"
"In a fit of anger, if you find out that Miss Xia revealed the appearance of the jade statue, then Miss Xia will be out of luck."
When the prefect of Yingzhou heard it, he felt it was very reasonable, so he couldn't help laughing at him and said, "Then Sixteenth Master, please show me a clear way."
Ji Shiliu frowned: "Why are you so worthless, you've fallen into Qian's eyes."
"Isn't that right? That's all I can do." The prefect of Yingzhou flattered Ji Shiliu so much that he almost hugged Ji Shiliu's thigh, "Master Shiliu, I just came out of a poor valley, and then For many years, we just stayed in this poor mountain valley, aren't we all the same."
He rubbed Ji Shiliu's arm. Ji Shiliu seemed to hesitate for a long time before lowering his voice and said, "Well, you also know how valuable this Kunlun jade statue is. If you get the real jade statue, then you You don’t have to worry about it in your next life, in your next life.”
The prefect of Yingzhou turned pale, he was very frightened, he didn't have the courage to go to get things from Lord Yu.
"I'm talking about you, why are you not enlightened at all." Ji Shiliu knocked him on the head, and said in detail: "The current Princess Yu is Miss Feng who married from Duke Feng's mansion."
"She has always loved money. You just need to pay enough to let Miss Xia convey your wishes to Princess Yu. If Princess Yu agrees to get the jade statue from Lord Yu, then you can just wait and count the money. If you don't agree, that's fine."
The prefect of Yingzhou nodded, half understanding, and asked, "How much silver do you need?"
Ji Shiliu raised her hand, showing five fingers in front of his eyes.
The prefect of Yingzhou was in a daze, "50 taels?"
Ji Shiliu shook his head silently, and the prefect of Yingzhou felt his heart stop beating for a while, "It can't be 500 million taels?"
How many years would he have to accumulate to get this amount.
"Should I say that you are short-sighted?" Ji Shiliu sighed helplessly, and continued to lower her voice, "Do you know how much money my father-in-law is willing to pay for this jade statue?"
"That's 500 million taels! In the black market, some people say that if you want to get this jade statue at a price of 1000 million taels, your 500 million taels is considered cheap. But if you continue to hesitate, there is no guarantee that Princess Yu will not be obsessed with money. , do business with the black market."
Ji Shiliu looked at the prefect of Yingzhou with the eyes of an idiot. The prefect of Yingzhou finally realized that the opportunity must not be missed, and immediately ran towards Feng Xihe with a playful smile, and told her his intentions.
After his hard work, Feng Xihe finally agreed.Then the prefect of Yingzhou ran away and happily went to raise a deposit.
In just half a day, he put out a deposit of 350 million taels, and the remaining 150 million taels had to be settled after he saw the jade statue.
Feng Xihe promised him that he would send someone to Jinling as soon as possible to bring him the jade statue he had been thinking about for a look.
Xia Haiyan was furious when he saw the thick stack of banknotes. A prefect who was born in Baiding was able to get out 350 million taels in a very short period of time. It is conceivable how much he has been greedy for over the years. Silver taels.
Xia Haiyan slapped it with a palm, stirring up a burst of dust.
"A local official can be so vile, despicable and incompetent. He really thinks that the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so he can do whatever he wants!"
Feng Xihe also sighed secretly, it was because of this feature that Gu Jincheng took a fancy to him, so he asked him to collect money for himself.
Then, she walked up to Ji Shiliu and reminded him friendly: "It was you who told him about the Kunlun jade statue. Anyway, I have never seen it. I just cooperated with you. How to get the jade statue is up to you." Think of ways to."
Ji Shiliu responded indifferently, and felt that this woman was so heartless, and wondered how Prince Yu fell in love with her.
Ji Shiliu sent a letter to Jinling, demanding that the Kunlun Jade Statue be delivered quickly.
When the prefect of Yingzhou saw the jade statue wrapped in red silk, he couldn't help being overjoyed. Without saying a word, he also settled the final payment of 150 million taels.Then, he kept urging Ji Shiliu to tell Qian Yongchang to come up with 500 million taels.
As everyone knows, this move has already planted a disaster for himself and the officials under him.
In a blink of an eye, the Laba Festival is here, and according to what Feng Xihe said, there are enough grains and grains for porridge.
Xia Haiyan brought several carts of grain and medicine one night in advance, and the prefect of Yingzhou led a group of officials to watch these carts of grain being transported into the granary with great joy.
However, there was another person who gave the porridge that day.
When Feng Xihe arrived at the porridge shed in the west of the city, he saw that Yun Changyi was already holding a porridge spoon, slowly serving steaming Laba porridge to the people who came forward.
Yun Changyi's movements were calm and elegant, and he smiled and showed full patience to every commoner who came.
The people all looked at her without blinking, and were very grateful to her.
They were far away in Wei City, so they didn't know much about what happened to Yun Changyi in Jinling City.
They only knew that such a fairy-like head of Anle County was willing to condescend and go to Weicheng for disaster relief.
Ruizhu stood beside Yun Changyi, actively handing over the handkerchief, pretending to let Yun Changyi wipe off the sweat.
The master and servant cooperated seamlessly.
And when Feng Xihe's carriage arrived, and Feng Xihe, who was veiled, slowly got down, another exclamation came from the crowd, "Miss Xia is here."
In the past few days, Feng Xihe and Xia Haiyan went door-to-door and went to the homes of the affected people to express condolences, which left a deep impression on the people.
In addition, Xia Haiyan himself was highly praised by the common people, and his younger sister was naturally loved by the common people.
When Feng Xihe approached, after standing still in the porridge shed next door to Yun Changyi, Ruizhu rubbed her eyes, unavoidably tugged at the corner of Yun Changyi's clothes, and whispered, "Master, what do you think about that Miss Xia? Somewhat familiar."
Yun Changyi looked up, and after seeing Feng Xihe, a barely noticeable sternness flashed across his eyes.
What Miss Xia, this is clearly Feng Xihe, even if Feng Xihe is turned into ashes, she will recognize it.
Yun Changyi's slender nails dug into the palm of his hand.
She thought about it carefully. A few days ago, the food and medicines she bought in large quantities were stopped halfway and sent to Weicheng.
The original plan to gain both fame and fortune fell through.And she couldn't say anything about her suffering, so she could only put on a smiling face and continue to come to give porridge.
All this happened so weirdly, if it wasn't for Feng Xihe's obstruction, she wouldn't believe it.
"Ruizhu, you haven't seen Miss Xia before, could you be mistaken?" After a while, Yun Changyi calmly turned his eyes away.
She didn't want to reveal Feng Xihe's true identity at this time, that would only gain Feng Xihe a good reputation.
Rui Zhu understood her intention immediately, and said hurriedly, "It's the servant girl's eyesight."
However, watching Yun Changyi serve spoonfuls of Laba porridge to the people, and thinking of the food and medicines that were intercepted, he couldn't help but feel sorry.
"Master, are you willing to give up that batch of food and medicine?" Rui Zhu said in a very low voice. At that time, Yun Changyi spent a lot of money to buy a large number of them, so it was confiscated, which is really a pity.
Yun Changyi didn't take it seriously, the drooping eyelashes covered his vicious gaze, "No one can get what I can't get."
"It doesn't matter if she took some food and medicine from me, but they are all destroyed."
Ruizhu seemed to understand what she meant, so she didn't say any more.
Yun Changyi scooped up the porridge for a while, looked around the area, and saw the prefect of Yingzhou with a sad face.
A strange color flashed in her eyes, she lowered her head and said something in Ruizhu's ear, and Ruizhu walked to the prefect of Yingzhou quietly.
"Master Taishou, why are you bothered?" Rui Zhu asked with a smile.
The prefect of Yingzhou shrunk his head and said it was all right.However, he was so worried that he urged Ji Shiliu for several days, asking when Qian Yongchang could give him 500 million taels, but Ji Shiliu just didn't give a clear answer.
He carried the jade statue of Prince Yu, but it was not easy to sell it to others.The point is, no one can afford the price at all.
The more the prefect of Yingzhou thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, and he felt something was wrong.
"Master Taishou, do you feel that you have been deceived by Master Xia and Miss Xia?" Rui Zhu asked again.
The prefect of Yingzhou looked around in panic, and said timidly, "How do you know?"
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince learned about this, and asked us to help the prefect." Rui Zhu said very softly, but the prefect of Yingzhou heard it and panicked.
"It turns out that Anle County Lord is from His Royal Highness the Second Prince..." He pointed at Yun Changyi in surprise, then leaned his head over again, "Miss Ruizhu, how does the Second Prince plan to save me?"
