Daning Dynasty god-level sign-in system

Chapter 116 Galway's Choice

Dai Yi's eyes lit up, and he asked anxiously: "Xiao Yan, what kind of treasure is it, can our family take a look first?"

Xiao Yan shrugged: "Well, it's not that I won't show it to you, it's just..."

Before he finished speaking, Gao Wei became a little anxious: "Xiao Yan, don't worry, you are the only one in Zhou Mansion..."

Xiao Yan coughed, "Su Yu, you invite Mrs. Zhou down so that you can have a good rest, it's really tiring if you haven't slept all night."

Gao Wei also realized that he almost said the wrong thing just now, and after Mrs. Xue left, he closed the doors and windows himself, "Thanks to brother Xiao Yan just now, our family almost said the wrong thing, and it may not be beautiful to hear the old Xue Ge. .”

Xiao Yan said modestly: "Eunuch Gao is polite, we can be regarded as old friends, this is not a big credit, I was the first to think of looking for you."

When Gao Wei heard that he had made great contributions, he was excited, "In that case, our family is all ears!"

Xiao Yan said in a low voice: "I remember the last time I had a meal, my father-in-law said that the emperor and his old man were worried about the disasters that happened over the years?"

Gao Wei didn't answer at first, but looked around carefully, and after confirming that there was no one there, he said in a low voice: "To tell you the truth, in recent years, Daliang's national strength has gradually increased, and troops have been sent to provoke our dynasty, and the treasury is getting tighter day by day. , coupled with the successive years of disasters, the people’s harvest has dropped sharply, and there may be refugees this year.”

Xiao Yan was puzzled and said, "I heard that Daning has three major granaries, and the Changping granary in Suzhou was set up for disaster relief. Is it not enough to appease the people affected by the disaster? Will it lead to refugees everywhere?"

Gao Wei: "You are not an official in the court, and you don't know many things. Our family has told you, but you must not talk about it outside."

Xiao Yan: "Elder-in-law, don't worry, I promise that it won't be spread."

Gao Wei: "I heard that during the early court today, Shen Gongming, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, reported to His Majesty that the three major warehouses were almost empty, and they could barely last for three to five months. Don't say that the victims cannot eat, it is our million dollars. The army's rations are almost unsustainable."

Xiao Yan was quite surprised: "What? The three big warehouses hold millions of stones of grain, so they will be empty if they are empty?"

Gao Wei spread his hands: "Who says it's not! This is a major issue related to Daning's foundation, and I don't know who is so bold and dares to covet the grain of the three major warehouses."

Xiao Yan: "These are the affairs of those adults in the court, we can't control them, but I have a way, maybe I can help the emperor relieve his worries!"

Gao Wei was a little suspicious and said: "Xiao Yan, it would be great if we make shampoo, soap, watermelon, etc. Don't think about things that are beyond our power."

Fuck, it's clear that you don't believe me!
Xiao Yan said decisively: "Eunuch Gao, I am [-]% sure that we can solve our food problem in Daning."

How could Galway believe this? For thousands of years, how many talented people with lofty ideals have been unable to solve the food problem? Only a small talent can solve it?Isn't that a big dream in the blue sky?

"Xiao Yan, it's good for young people to have aspirations, but as the old saying goes, you have to walk step by step before you can be steady, otherwise you will easily stumble."

Xiao Yan didn't talk too much anymore, and said directly: "I have a new kind of grain, and the yield per mu can reach about five shi."

In fact, if the field is fertile enough, the yield of corn per mu is at least ten shi. Xiao Yan's corn has just been planted for trial, and it will be harvested in about a month. stone.

Even so, it was enough to make Gao Wei's jaw drop.

He jumped up from his chair and asked, "What? The yield is as high as five shi? When our family was young, the best paddy field in the village only produced two shi. Did you deceive our family?"

"Don't worry, I might as well tell you, it's only a lot more than five stones."

Gao Wei couldn't help but believe Xiao Yan, "What kind of new food is that, can you let our family take a look first?"

Xiao Yan took a sip of his tea and shook his head: "Although I have some of those things, I'm afraid it won't work. Didn't my father-in-law look at the people surrounding him? It's Wucheng Bingmasi, Jinyiwei, and People from Ge Lao Mansion, I can't get away right now!"

Gao Wei fell silent and paced back and forth in the room.

He was also struggling in his heart. On the one hand, the disaster that Xiao Yan caused was not small, on the other hand, besides the soldiers and horses of the five cities, his troops were not enough, and on the other hand, Gao Wei was not afraid of Xue Ge's old mansion and Jin Yiwei. , but did not want to offend.

On the other hand, the temptation to produce five stones of new grain per mu is not insignificant. If it is true as Xiao Yan said, then it will be a great contribution. Not to mention the imperial supervisor job that I have always dreamed of, it will be the imperial horse by then. Such good jobs as supervisor and supervisor of ceremonies are not a problem.

It's been so many years, and it's not easy to meet Xiao Yan, a noble person, to get to the current position. Why don't you just fight this one, or reach the sky in one step, or die and die.

Xiao Yan was not in a hurry at all, he let Gao Wei walk back and forth, and he was afraid that Gao Wei would not make up his mind after throwing out such a big bait?
Gao Wei did not mention the matter of the three major warehouses before, he was not so sure yet, but now that he knew it, it was almost like taking a reassurance, and now he does not need any persuasion, just wait patiently for Gao Wei to make a decision.

Gao Wei's gaze became more and more determined, and he had already made a decision, "Xiao Yan, our family will find a way to ask the eunuch Liu Bao, the supervisor of ceremonies, to help you deal with the outsiders, but I hope you didn't lie to our family, because the ancestors didn't Our family is so talkative, not only will your life be lost, but our family will also be implicated."

Xiao Yan: "Elder-in-law, don't worry, it's not for the sake of our acquaintance, and I won't give you the credit for this day's great work, will I?"

Gao Wei laughed and said: "Once our family is promoted, we will naturally not forget Young Master Xiao's affection."

Xiao Yan: "It's easy to say, easy to say!"

Gao Wei: "The important thing is, our family will invite the ancestors!"

Xuege old mansion.

Elder Xue Ge, who had returned to the mansion, changed into his regular clothes and was about to have breakfast when he saw Xue Fu walking in in a panic.

"Xue Fu, you are also an old man. You have never seen anything in the world. Why do you look like this?"

Seeing that Xiao Yan was able to invite the righteous Eunuch Gao in the palace, Xue Fu hurried back from Zhou Mansion to report out of prudence.

"Master, it's not good, there is someone in that cub's womb!"

"Drink your saliva first, sit down and talk slowly, how is it proper to be flustered."
