The king behind the empress

Chapter 107 Isn't this a coincidence?
Although Qian Min has blocked all the channels for buying grain, Mo Zizai has never followed the rules since he left the imperial mausoleum, so Qian Min always feels that he will have other ways to get rid of it. There is always a feeling of unreliability in my heart.

"We must make the three affected counties into chaos as soon as possible. As long as the three counties are in chaos, and there is no military force to suppress it, what if he has food in his hands?"

Qian Min comforted herself silently in her heart, and slowly dispelled the unreliable feeling in her heart, but after letting go of this matter, Qian Min instantly remembered the 50 taels of silver that was blackmailed by Mo Zizai just now.

"50, 50 taels!"

Qian Min's tone was a bit heartbroken, because of an innocent disaster, he was extorted 50 taels of silver, and he couldn't live through this day.

And the most important thing is, if he had known that Mo Zizai had such a big appetite, he would not have let Qian Gui take out those tea leaves, but it turned out to be a good thing now, the money was extorted, and the tea leaves were gone, what a blood loss.

"Mo Zizai, just wait." Qian Min was secretly ruthless in her heart, "Sooner or later, I will make you spit out everything!!!"

……

After Mo Zizai left Qian's house with Zhou Qi, he always felt that someone was talking about him behind his back, "I seem to hear someone cursing me behind my back, Zhou Qi, do you think it might be Qian Min?"

Zhou Qi followed Mo Zizai with a brocade box in his hand. This brocade box was specially asked for by Mo Zizai, Qian Min's housekeeper, Qian Gui, for the convenience of getting the tea leaves when he went out to the Qian Mansion.

He stole people's money, took his precious tea leaves, and asked them to wrap the tea leaves before leaving. Even with Zhou Qi's temperament, I felt that Mo Zizi was a bit too deceitful.

Therefore, when he heard Mo Zizai's question, he was silent for a rare moment, and then said slowly, "Most likely, it's Mr. Qian Ge who is scolding you behind your back."

"You are so courageous, you dare to scold me behind your back."

Mo Zizai rubbed his itchy nose, and asked Zhou Qi: "You said I'm going to use this excuse to go back and blackmail him for 50 taels?"

"..."

Zhou Qi really didn't know what to say this time, you said it was extortion, how could it be feasible or not.

It’s just that I just extorted 50 taels and a bunch of top-quality tea from Qian Min, but you just went out, and Qian Min’s stool is probably not hot yet, so you’re going back to blackmail him a second time. Bullied to death.

In order to prevent the Hubu Shangshu from being pissed off, Zhou Qi thought about it for a while, and finally gave Qian Min an excuse, "My lord, we have already paid for Qian's house. This distance, even for a warrior in the human realm, is too far away." Can't hear his voice."

"Therefore, even if you go back and use this excuse...to ask him for money, he won't admit it."

"That's true."

Mo Zizai looked a little regretful, "It's a pity, I can't go back and appreciate Qian Ge's face-changing skills."

Hearing Mo Zizai's words, the corners of Zhou Qi's mouth twitched slightly, and he decided to selectively forget the words, pretending that he hadn't heard them.

"My lord, although Mr. Qian Ge promised one hundred thousand shi of grain, it's hard to say when it will be delivered, and the most important thing is that even if all the hundred thousand shi are delivered, it can only solve the urgent need. No problem."

"Ok, I know."

Regarding Zhou Qi's worries, Mo Zizai nodded indifferently, "I didn't expect them at first, I just wanted to let him make some money, after all, more food is better, but the bulk still needs to be solved by kind people. "

"Well-wishers..."

Hearing the word "good-hearted person" again, Zhou Qi couldn't help being puzzled, and asked, "Who is the kind-hearted person that the prince is talking about?"

Mo Zizai didn't answer, but instead asked Zhou Qi a question, "Zhou Qi, who do you think has the most food?"

"That can only be the family."

Regarding this question, Zhou Qi gave the answer without any hesitation. Most of the aristocratic families with a long history have the habit of building warehouses and stockpiling grain. big.

Therefore, if the imperial court is excluded, the people who have the most food will undoubtedly be those aristocratic families.

Therefore, Zhou Qi thought that Mo Zizai was going to attack the aristocratic family, so he couldn't help but frowned tightly. It is obviously not a wise choice to rashly attack the aristocratic family when the imperial court does not have many available soldiers what.

"It's not a family."

Mo Zizai shook his head and vetoed Zhou Qi's guess, and said, "Aside from the aristocratic family, who else do you think has a lot of food in their hands?"

"Except for the family?"

Zhou Qi was slightly taken aback, and then quickly realized, "The prince is talking about those grain merchants?"

In Dazhou, the business environment was relatively good, and various merchants emerged in endlessly. Although most of these merchants had shadows of aristocratic families or officials behind them, they were, after all, another class independent of the aristocratic families and the imperial court.

"That's right, those grain merchants."

Mo Zizai nodded and smiled kindly, "I read the information from Yu Zhisi, and within the capital alone, the grain stores of these grain merchants are worth a million stones."

"There is so much food, people in the capital can't finish it, it's a pity to put it in the warehouse and get moldy."

"My lord, is this appropriate?"

Zhou Qi was a little hesitant. Now that there is no food in the official warehouse, it is all supplied by these grain merchants. If these grain merchants are emptied out, it will be a big trouble if the grain supply in the capital is not enough.

"Don't worry, the capital hasn't been hit by a disaster, and most people still have food in storage. Even if the grain merchants run out of food for a short period of time, the capital won't have any problems. At most, the price of food will only increase a little, which is not a big problem. .”

Hearing what Mo Zizai said, Zhou Qi once again showed a helpless look on his face. He had heard of pulling out his salary from the bottom of the pot, but he had never heard of pulling his own salary from the bottom of the pot.

This is completely using the fire in the capital to save the fire in the disaster-stricken areas of the three counties. If something happens to the capital, the problem will be much more serious than the drought in the three counties.

"My lord, this matter..."

Zhou Qi wanted to persuade him, but he really couldn't think of any solution other than this method, so he could only change the subject and said, "My lord, those grain merchants probably won't sell you grain Bar?"

These merchants in Dazhou all have backgrounds of aristocratic families or officials. Therefore, since most people do not want to have grain shipped to the disaster areas in the three counties, I am afraid that those merchants would not dare to sell grain to Mo Zizai.

"Isn't it a coincidence?"

Mo Zizai showed a bright smile on his face, and the two rows of big white teeth looked extraordinarily clean under the sunlight, "It just so happened that I didn't plan to spend money."
