Chapter 875
The emperor's east tour was actually a huge disaster for the localities.
No matter which state capital it is, 10,000+ people come in overnight is a very terrible thing.
The property of Datang state capital is not rich, just like a common people’s life, they must live within their means and carefully calculate to continue to live. They can barely make ends meet in the days of good weather all year round. Now, the family suddenly has double the population. This is the look of a housewife who is going to die.
Of course, at the beginning of the emperor's east tour, he left all the taxes, money and food that had to be handed over to the local area to cover the expenses of the emperor's east tour.
If the emperor was just passing by in the local area, it would be fine. The government only needed loess to pad the road and clear water to sprinkle the street. Unfortunately, the emperor stayed in Bianzhou for 23 days.
During these 23 days, local officials will not only experience an [-]-magnitude earthquake-like officialdom shock, but local rich households will also be caught in various political struggles for no reason. At this time, they are required to satisfy the emperor. , The supply of nobles, ministers, and the army is really too difficult.
It's just the expense that the local government has put in this time. Within ten years, there will be no trace of accumulation in the treasury of the local government of Bianzhou.
Not to mention that the local government treasury was tossed up by the emperor this time with a group of honorable civil and military ministers. Even the chickens, pigs, sheep, and dogs in the common people’s homes were eaten up by these people. That is, the Tang Dynasty strictly prohibited the slaughter of farm cattle, otherwise they would even want to eat cattle from the common people's homes.
Even so, driven by huge profits, many cattle fell to death in the homes of the people near Bianzhou City.
Therefore, the people in Bianzhou City and the merchants have no shortage of money, but the food is gone.
It's not that there is no food. The Governor's Mansion of Bianzhou is a military state. As a military state, it naturally has a very large treasury. Unfortunately, the things in the military state treasury can only be used by the army. There is no war, and it will not be opened easily. However, even if there is a large-scale famine in Bianzhou, the Junzhou warehouse will not be opened. The more chaotic the place and the more critical the situation, the more tightly guarded the Junzhou warehouse will be.
Li Si had food in her hands. Ever since she keenly discovered that Luoyang City and Chang'an City were the cheapest places to get food in Datang, she sent an order back to Chang'an, and Luoyang mobilized all available forces to start transporting food to the east.
It's ridiculous to say that these grains originally came from Shandong and Hebei, and now they are transported to Shandong and Hebei by Li Si. God knows how this account is calculated. In short, it seems that everyone who participates in the transportation of grains is profitable.
As for who is the unlucky ghost, Li Si usually doesn't think about it.
She doesn't think about it, but Yun Chu must think about it.
He feels that not all money in this world can be earned, and some money is not good for the digestive tract of children and grandchildren.
Feeling aggrieved, Li Si looked up at Yun Chu and said, "Those rich people clearly know that we have food, so why do they buy food locally instead of directly from us?"
Yun Chu glanced at Li Si and said, "What do you think?"
Li Si said angrily: "They did it on purpose. They just wanted to buy all the food from the local area. They would rather give the money to the local area than let us make money."
Yun Chu glanced at Yun Jin again, and Yun Jin said, "I think someone is targeting Si Si."
Yun Chu said expressionlessly: "Who is targeting Li Si?"
Yun Jin said unabashedly: "Queen."
"What?"
"Because Li Si has too much food in his hand."
"Why doesn't the queen take the food directly from Li Si?"
Yun Jin said with a bitter face: "I can't figure this out."
Yun Chu looked at Wen Huan's face again, and Wen Huan whispered: "The queen has too much money, she lent part to Li Si, and she needs to spend the other part, her money becomes She bought all the supplies, and the money in Li Si's hands can only be loaned to the people of the cooperative, and cannot be used for other purposes."
Yun Chu hummed and continued to look at Di Guangsi.
Di Guangsi swallowed his saliva and said, "I think the emperor and the empress are testing us to see if we have a lot of food in our hands, whether we will put the country's people first, or pay more attention to self-interest."
After listening to the words of the four children, Yun Chu remained expressionless, but Rou Wen and Di Renjie next to him seemed very excited, and looked at Yun Chu gratefully.
The two of them did not expect that the four children had such insights. Although they were not all right, the four children restored the original appearance of the matter after patching together.
"Stretch out your hand!"
Yun Chu looked very dissatisfied.
The four little ones looked at each other guiltily, then closed their eyes, and stretched out their left hands timidly.
Yun Chu's iron-like hand patted the hands of the four children one by one, pa pa pa pa pa, and after the four sounds, the four children screamed together, especially Li Si's voice was the loudest.
So, Yun Chu slapped Li Si again.
"I'll let you off this time. In the future, if you still dare to divide Yinggong's words into four parts and use them for the examination, it won't be so easy to get away with it."
After Yunchu finished his lesson, Ruan Wen and Di Renjie suddenly realized that they looked at their son viciously, wishing they could rush up and beat him up again.
Li Si, who was jumping in pain, yelled louder, and while yelling, he walked outside the military tent. At the same time, the timid Wen Huan and Di Guangsi, who were looked at by their father's vicious eyes, also walked out.
Only Yun Jin stayed at the end with a strong face, ready to die for the three companions.
The three of Yunchu watched Li Si run away, Wen Huan ran away, and Di Guangsi ran away, and the three of them set their eyes on Yun Jin.
With a gentle smile, he said: "Why don't you run?"
Yun Jin drooped her head and said: "If I run away, none of the four of us will be able to escape. Father, the child is wrong, please punish me."
Yun Chu was extremely angry and laughed back: "It seems that you are going to fight alone?"
Yun Jin said: "Sisi came up with the idea, if the boy doesn't object, it's a mistake."
Di Renjie smiled and said: "Now the three of them have run away and escaped punishment. Don't you feel wronged by one of you suffering four crimes?"
Yun Jin shook her head and said, "I'm not wronged, I was wrong."
He said with a gentle smile: "If you scream like Li Si now, today's punishment will be over."
Yun Jin shook her head resolutely and said: "I won't call, uncle wants to lure the three of them back, so I won't call."
After all, he covered his mouth with both hands, with a look of death on his face.
Di Renjie looked at the door of the military tent and said angrily: "If the three of them don't come back, this punishment will really be inevitable."
As soon as the words fell, three pale little faces appeared at the entrance of the military tent.
Seeing the three little people tremblingly stretching out their red left hands again, Wen Rou laughed loudly and said: "Uncle is the master, today's punishment will be avoided."
As soon as Li Si's eyes lit up, he quickly pulled Yun Jin and ran out, while running, he taught Yun Jin a lesson: "You are stupid, why don't you run."
In the blink of an eye, the four little ones disappeared without a trace.
Di Renjie glanced at the military tent with satisfaction and said, "It doesn't matter if things go wrong, your character can't be flawed."
Yun Chu snorted coldly and said, "You guys underestimated the four of them too. From the beginning to the end, they were acting according to circumstances, including Yun Jin's initiative to cut off the queen."
Gentle and surprised, said: "Could it be that I was tricked?"
Di Renjie thought about the process, patted his head and said: "The timing is too smooth."
Yun Chu took a look at Rou Rou and said to Di Renjie: "In the future, when your son participates in family battles, you'd better watch out, otherwise, heh heh...don't say I didn't get to the bottom of what I said."
Rourou thought about her messy big family, took a breath and said: "Forget it, Wen Huan is better off on his own as you said, although I don't like those people in my family, but if Wen Huan goes Misfortune, I still feel a little bit unbearable."
Di Renjie also smiled wryly: "At a young age, I have mastered the skills that adults have not mastered, and I don't know whether it is a disaster or a blessing."
Yun Chu said: "So, the next thing they have to do is to let go of their status and start with people."
Nodding softly, she said: "That's right. When I was young, I started to learn the way of self-protection. After learning the way of self-protection, I learned how to be kind. This order is correct."
Di Renjie said, "You punished them because of the village chief who was beaten badly?"
Yun Chu nodded and said: "The most exaggerated thing is that the four of them still have inexhaustible minions. If Yun Jin really hurt the chief with the dagger at that time, it would be considered a momentary anger. I was not so angry Well, what really pissed me off was that when the three of them were beating up that chief, they didn't treat him as a human being at all."
Gentlely tapped his mouth and said, "Why do I think it's good?"
Yun Chu stared softly and said: "You are a role model who was not well educated since you were a child. If you didn't have our group of friends later, you might become a real villain."
Di Renjie said worriedly: "Why do I think they might not be able to change it?"
Yun Chu said: "Yes, as long as they repeat and repeat good deeds and do good deeds, forming the instincts of their bodies, they can restrain those beast instincts in their hearts.
The light rain in spring, the cool breeze in summer, the fruits in autumn, the snow in winter, and the smile on a person's face can comfort a person the most, just like a baby will cry when hungry, and will cry when uncomfortable. Crying is because they were never hungry or uncomfortable when they were in the womb of their mothers, so after they were born, once they felt hungry or uncomfortable, their bodies would think it was wrong, so they would cry .
Now that these children have learned to cry, it's time to taste new feelings. "
Gentle nodded and said: "You are quite right, the problem is that my daughter is also at the time of enlightenment, isn't it..."
Yun Chu shook his head and said, "Don't even think about it, these four children are too many for me, besides, there can't be only wolves in this world, I should keep some cattle and sheep, otherwise, on the grassland full of wolves, wolves will starve to death."
