Four Husbands Compete for Favor: All Husbands Are Allure

Therefore, even though Qin Weishi was extremely unwilling, Mo Jinran insisted on doing so, so the two parted ways and headed for two different counties. Mo Jinran took half of the troops with him. It was Qin Weishi who deliberately picked out soldiers with higher martial arts skills and more cleverness.

Along the way, Mo Jinran still walked more and rested less, and arrived at Wuling City three days later.When he saw the city lord, he immediately showed the general's token to explain his intentions. Although it was not as rough as when he was in Lingshui County, he was still rejected, and the reason coincided with Lingshui County.No matter what Mo Jinran said, the lord of Wuling City didn't show any face.

In this way, they can only rely on Qin Weishi, if there is no more food to borrow, they really don't know what to do.After a few more days, Qin Weishi and Qin Weishi agreed to meet up on the pipeline leading to Sa'an City.Seeing that Qin Weishi also came back empty, his heart sank. He didn't expect that none of the three prefectures and counties would lend half a grain of rice. Could it be that none of the officials of the Canfeng Dynasty was kind?Or is it true that the Canfeng dynasty is about to change as the rumors say, and this problem can't be solved?

"General Mo, what should we do now?" Qin Weishi couldn't bear it anymore!

"Let me think about it again..." Mo Jinran sat there with his hands on his forehead and thought hard, always feeling that things are not that simple, there must be something wrong!

Li Quan, the magistrate of Lingshui County, was about 40 years old, and the owner of Wuling City, about 60 years old, both looked embarrassed, which made Mo Jinran suspicious.Qin Weishi also said that the mayor of Kongxian Town is not as stingy as that, but he never excuses. Why?Do you really want to go to the state government office again?It's just that she has been out for more than ten days now, and she doesn't know what has happened in Sa'an City. She really feels that she is useless.

Suddenly, she thought of an idea: "Adjutant Qin, have you brought any silver taels?"

"Bring it, why did General Mo ask this question?" Qin Weishi didn't know why Mo Jinran asked this, he must bring money when he goes out!

"Since the government refuses to borrow rice grains, let's buy some rice grains from the common people with silver. What do you think? I just don't know how much silver you have?"

"It took a few days, and there are still a few thousand taels left!" Qin Weishi thought for a while and replied, in fact, if he was a lieutenant general, he would not be so rich.It's just that the Qin family was originally a family of merchants. Although they were not the richest man in the Canfeng Dynasty, they were still among the top ten!Such a son-in-law is dedicated to serving the imperial court. The Qin family has been in business for generations, and now there is a Guangzong Yaozu who is an official. Mr. Qin must have greatly supported him. Not only did Qin Weishi not pay his own salary, but he also gave Qin Weishi several thousand taels every month. Press the bag, afraid that my son will suffer.

"Then use the money to collect grain from the people's homes. We can count as much as we can. We can't leave empty-handed! It's just that we don't know how much the people have left over."

"Actually, General Mo doesn't have to worry about the money. The Qin family also has shops in nearby counties. If there is not enough money, the subordinates can go down and get it." Qin Weishi was not stingy with his money. It is a great honor to be able to serve the court!

"The Qin family? Adjutant Qin's family is in business?" Mo Jinran didn't know!

"Yes!"

"Can't you think of a way to deal with rice?" Mo Jinran is really in a hurry to go to the doctor now!

Qin Weishi shrugged helplessly: "General Mo, if my subordinates have a way, they won't want to. It's just that the Qin family doesn't have a rice grain business, which makes you disappointed. It's okay to eat a few meals in the past, but it's okay to collect grain and take it with you." There is really no way for Sa'an City."

"Ah! Look at me in a hurry, sorry, sorry!" Mo Jinran scolded himself in his heart, it was really rude to say that, but fortunately Qin Weishi didn't bother with her too much!

The two agreed, so they took the bank notes and went to the villagers' homes to collect rice.

The vicinity of the official road belongs to Lingshui County, and the nearby villages also belong to Lingshui County. Mo Jinran has inquired that this year will be a bumper harvest, so they have rekindled their hopes.However, after walking through several farmhouses with larger yards and better houses, they found nothing.

In this way, there are more than [-] farmers of various types, all of which are like this.Mo Jinran thought that they were showing that the price of rice was not high enough, so they deliberately raised the price of rice, but they still haven't received half a grain of grain!This strange situation is associated with the magistrates of several states and counties, and the doubts are even greater.Mo Jinran decided to investigate this matter carefully.

After several hours, I finally got the result.

It turned out that during the autumn harvest, a group of businessmen came to collect rice at a high price.The farmers were very happy, and sold all their surplus grain for the winter. The price of rice for this group of merchants was twice that of previous years, and no one would refuse to sell it.As a result, today, each household only has rice grains for their own food.

After knowing this situation, Mo Jinran couldn't help thinking, if the farmers have no food reserves, will it be the same if the government doesn't borrow it?Could it be that those merchants collected all the rice grain from the farmers and went to collect official grain?You must know that this is against the law. Official grain cannot be bought and sold privately. There is a designated rice grain depot in the government to prepare for emergencies of the people. If they are really like this...

Moreover, this group of merchants hoarding rice grains was also guilty in this dynasty. They did not hesitate to break the law. Why did they do this?

"Adjutant Qin, please go and check the official grain depot!"

Qin Weishi nodded, obviously, he also thought of this.After the answer was given, he went to investigate overnight. He inquired about many people and places both openly and secretly. In the end, he was not afraid of danger and sneaked into the official grain depot.As the local officials said, there is not enough food. From this point of view, these local officials are really tired of the word "greedy", and it is estimated that this official will not be able to continue in the future.

This matter is no small matter, if there are no natural disasters and man-made disasters, the people can still live and work in peace and contentment, but if something happens and the rice is not enough, the people will not starve to death.This was so infuriating, Mo Jinran hurriedly wrote a memorial and sent it to the post station to present to the emperor, begging the emperor to send someone to investigate the matter in detail.It's not that she wants to kill all these local officials, it's just that they have gone too far.

Although the truth of the matter has been found out, the food problem has not yet been resolved.After discussing with Qin Weishi, Mo Jinran and Qin Weishi decided to send a few soldiers to the state government office with letters stamped with their official seals, hoping to get support.If the state capital can find a way to raise rice grain, there should be officers and soldiers from the state capital escorting it to Sa'an City.But the nearest state government office is also very far away. One of them is a military officer and one lieutenant general has been out for a long time. If they don't go back, there will be some troubles.

After making the decision, I tried my best to buy some dry food such as steamed buns that can last for a long time in a nearby restaurant. Although it is difficult to solve the food problem of the whole city, it can still help a little. .
