Chapter 721 Meeting the old friends
On the other side, Yu Qinghuan arrived in Yongzhou.
Due to the influence of the war, few people in the towns have gone out.
There are only three or two vendors who set up stalls for their livelihood.
Guiyan City is a big city in the north, with about tens of thousands of fixed residents in the city, but there are tens of thousands of merchants who come to Guiyan City to make a living and the coolies who find work together.
Compared with other towns in Yongzhou, Guiyan City has a very large population.
Yu Qinghuan ran to the county government office and informed local officials, asking them to inform them that they should not use the water in the river in the near future, and asked them to send the urgent official documents to other counties and hand the news to them.
It took another day to go back and forth.
Yu Qinghuan didn't dare to stop for a moment, and rushed directly to the Nangong family with a quick horse.
She didn't beat around the bush and directly revealed her identity as Princess Qi.
The old man met her directly, but when he saw that she was covered in dust, her skin was sunburned into wheat, and his every move was not as elegant as a princess, he still had doubts in his heart.
But the old man is old and he has never shown any doubts in his heart.
"The princess came to the humble house, I wonder what he could do to teach me?"
Yu Qinghuan did not lay any preparations and went straight to the topic: "I'll buy food."
After taking out a stack of silver notes, Yu Qinghuan pushed them to the old man.
This stack of silver notes was the ones that Nangong Suisui gave to Xie Yun at the time.
Changsun Tao came to save Xie Yun and left, and when she set out from southern Xinjiang, Changsun Tao gave her all.
The wool came out of the sheep, and Yu Qinghuan used it, but she didn't feel sorry for her at all.
"Buy grain?" The old man didn't even look at the silver bill, and put down his pipe, "What grain should I buy?"
Yu Qinghuan said: "There are a total of 168,000 taels here, whether it is grains, bacon, or sausage, or cloaks, hoodies, horse feed, and the Nangong family can sell them. I have bought them all, and the Nangong family can set prices on their own and provide the corresponding quantity of goods according to these silver notes."
The old man picked up the silver bill and counted it, and then gently put it down: "If you use the silver from my Nangong family to buy the food from the Nangong family, it will be the same as the Nangong family for you for free. Why are you in the Qi Prince's Mansion so careless in your work?"
Yu Qinghuan said ashamedly: "The savings from the Prince Qi's Mansion have been invested in Yangzhou long ago. To be honest, the Prince Qi's Mansion is so poor that it is almost over. The money was brought by the girl Zhixing, and she said it was the pocket money given to her by the head of the Nangong family. Since the silver bill has been given to the girl Zhixing, the old master can no longer say that this is from the Nangong family."
The old man smashed the pipe and shook the ash into a delicate small pottery bowl: "Caomin did not hide it from the princess. He was not sure about the princess' identity before. After seeing this stack of silver notes, he could confirm it."
"It's just the princess. Although the Nangong family is doing a legitimate business, they suddenly sell you a batch of grain with such a huge amount. If something happens, we are just a mere merchant and cannot bear such a big responsibility!"
Yu Qinghuan said, "Don't worry, old man, I bought these things not to be used to rebel, but to transport them to the tens of thousands of border guards in Guiyan City for the next rations."
The old man didn't understand: "When fighting on the frontier, the food and grass are supplied by the imperial court. Why do you still need to pay for it out of your own pocket to buy it?"
Yu Qing smiled: "The flood in Yangzhou should be funded by the court to provide disaster relief. Why do you still need the Qi Palace to empty your family and resettle the displaced victims? Old man, I don't go through the motions when doing things, but I also think that things can be truly implemented in the hands of those who deserve it."
"At present, the food and grass in Guiyan City can only last for a few days. When I transfer the food and grass from the court, I am being sent to Guiyan City. Tens of thousands of men who defend their country may have starved to death on the battlefield ahead."
Yu Qinghuan thought he had to slander to convince the old man to sell the goods to her, but when the old man heard this, he made a quick decision: "The people of the country have accepted the money and the account is taken so that the princess can explain to the superiors. The Nangong family has not much food, but it is enough for the soldiers returning to Yancheng to spend this winter."
"It's the maturity of cotton nowadays, and the Nangong family has also collected a lot of cotton. The grass people gave the princess all the cotton and the cotton cloth that they stocked up to be sold in winter."
"However, there is food in the old man's warehouse, but there is no forage. What should I do?"
Yu Qinghuan said: "Before I came, I had already inquired. The food in the Nangong family was all newly harvested rice this year. Isn't this rice still there? Horses can eat bran!"
The old man slapped his head: "Caomin didn't expect this. But these things are all over the place, and there are about 100,000 stones. How is the princess going to transport them to Guiyan City?"
Yu Qinghuan stood up and saluted solemnly: "I thanked the old man for tens of thousands of soldiers in Yancheng on my behalf. In the face of the crisis, the old man was righteous and was a model for us. In the future, the world was stable, and I will express my reputation and establish a monument for the old man."
The old man smiled and shook his head: "How can there be a complete egg under the nest? The grass people are not only for the soldiers, but also for the Nangong clan in the north. If the return to Yancheng is broken, where can the Nangong family live? It's just that the relationship between the North Korea and China is complicated, and it will affect the whole body. The grass people also have their own style and principles. It's okay to sell things to the princess, but they can't help the princess transporting them to the northern border. I also ask the princess to forgive me."
Yu Qinghuan said: "The old man just needs to continue to give instructions and try to prepare the items tomorrow. As for the delivery, I will find another way."
The old man knocked on the pipe again: "By the way, the matter between Caomin's grandson Asui and Zhixing Girl... What are the princess's opinions or suggestions?"
Yu Qinghuan was stunned and then smiled and said, "Haha, the old man is talking about them? I have no objection. Whether it is a marriage or a marriage, we will not have any objection. As long as someone is willing to ask him, it will be fine."
The old man wondered and muttered in a low voice: "I've said it earlier! I've left a iron ore for nothing. Isn't this a deal for a book?"
Yu Qinghuan: "Hmm??"
The old man sneered: "Oh, the grass people were overly surprised and said nothing."
Yu Qinghuan thanked the old man again and said goodbye and left. The old man kept her for food. She only said that she had something to do, and she shirked away the old man's kindness.
After leaving the Nangong family, Yu Qinghuan met with Ling, and Ling reported to her: "Princess, my subordinates have contacted the owner of Shangwei."
"Master Wei?" Yu Qinghuan's surprised expression revealed his expression and the door was suddenly opened.
The gray-haired owner of Wei appeared in front of Yu Qinghuan.
He looked at Yu Qinghuan with tears in his eyes and knelt down with a "bang": "Yan Feng has met the lady!"
"Uncle Wei," Yu Qinghuan knelt down quickly and returned three resounding words to him. "Uncle Wei takes care of his elder brother and treats his elder brother as his own. He has great kindness to our brother and sister, and the Lu family has great kindness. Mingyu cannot bear such great courtesy of Uncle Wei."
"I didn't expect..." Master Wei burst into tears, "I didn't expect that I would see the lady in my lifetime. It's really a blessing from the Marquis, and the princess!"
Yu Qinghuan quickly helped him up: "Without Uncle Wei, there would be no brother today, and there would be no brother when I met my brother. Since the elder brother called Uncle Wei, Uncle Wei was also Mingyu's father. Please don't be polite to Mingyu."
The owner of the Wei Manor wiped his tears and looked at Yu Qinghuan up and down, but the tears were getting more and more: "When the subordinate escorted the young master back to the capital to be a proton, the lady was not born yet. Unexpectedly, she has grown so big now, her eyebrows, eyes, facial features look like princesses, but her expression looks like a marquis."
Yu Qinghuan helped the owner of Wei to sit down on the chair, and poured him another cup of tea: "Uncle Wei, please have tea."
The owner of the Wei Manor quickly stood up and answered: "Miss, I can't do it, I can't do it."
Yu Qinghuan knelt down with tea and respectfully raised the tea to his head: "Mingyu bowed and told him three times, and thanked him for his righteousness and righteousness, and raised his brothers and became talented; the second, thanked him for his loyalty and loyalty, and dedicated his life to the Lu family; the third, thanked him for his loyalty and righteousness, and saved his old subordinates for the Lu family."
"Mingyu pays homage to Chen Sanyou again, one wishes Uncle Wei is healthy, two wishes that the Lu family will be clear, and three wishes that Uncle Wei will enjoy his old age."
When Ling saw Yu Qinghuan kneeling down, he also knelt down to Yu Qinghuan: "Zero has three wishes, one wishes that the master and the princess will always be happy, two wishes that the politics/the political system will be clear and clear, and three wishes that the world will be peaceful and peaceful. Finally, thank the princess Wei Zhuangzhu for the princess."
"Okay! Peace! Healthy!" Master Wei took the tea into his hand and took a sip with tears, which was considered to have accepted Yu Qinghuan's gratitude.
Yu Qinghuan took the teacup and put it on the coffee table, and asked, "Why is Uncle Wei here?"
Master Wei said: "A few days ago, I received a letter from your brother saying that you had gone to Guiyan City, so I took my brothers to Guiyan City to help you. Who knew that as soon as I arrived here, my subordinates sent a message saying that someone came to look for him with a token. I decided to come and see him in person. Unexpectedly, I asked me to wait for you... Miss, after knowing your identity, I, Wei Yanfeng, always thinking about seeing you."
Brother?
It's brother again.
The care and protection given to him by Wei Shu has surpassed the care that ordinary brothers have for his sister.
He is the best and most caring brother in the world!
Yu Qinghuan's heart was warm.
After reminiscing with the owner of Wei for a while, Yu Qinghuan explained his intention: "Uncle Wei, Guiyancheng has no food! I have bought a batch of food and quilts from the Nangong family. If I can be transported to Guiyancheng smoothly, I will definitely allow the soldiers of Guiyancheng to spend this winter."
"But the procedures for requesting officials to transport them are really cumbersome, and the soldiers of Guiyan City can't wait anymore. Please help me!"
The owner of the Wei Manor agreed without hesitation: "What's the problem? I will definitely bring my brothers and send the food and bedding to Guiyan City safely."
Yu Qinghuan said worriedly: "I suspect there are spies in the court who colluded with enemies and treason. The rebellion of Xirong was his conspiracy. His intention was to make the world turmoil and he would like to reap the benefits of the fisherman. Therefore, he must not want the food to be transported to Yancheng. This trip of food and grass and clothes will inevitably be full of crises."
