After binding the tens of billions of material systems, he became rich in ancient times

Chapter 207 Solving the Food Problem
The moon rose slowly from a place in the east, and the moonlight sprinkled on the sparkling lake, reflecting the faces of people standing by the water.

Almost all of them held a lantern in their hands, stuffed the note with their wishes into the lantern with full of anticipation, and waited for the lantern to be put into the lake.

Seeing the person in front of her leave, Bai Susu dragged Zhou Ximing to that position, and put the lantern in her hand in the water.

"What wish did you make?" Zhou Ximing looked at the note stuffed in the lantern in Bai Susu's hand, and asked her aloud.

"It won't work if you say it." Bai Susu put the lantern in the water, moved the water surface with her fingers, and made the lantern float towards the center of the lake. Her bright eyes were extremely bright under the light.

Seeing the lanterns getting farther and farther away from him and blending into many lanterns, a smile unconsciously curled up on the corner of his mouth.The lanterns inside converge towards the center together, like a galaxy.

Seeing that there were still people waiting behind her, Bai Susu took Zhou Ximing's hand, left from here, and stood at another place looking at the scenery in the lake.

The lights and moonlight blend together, making this lake look beautiful, and just watching quietly makes people feel happy.

"Wait until tomorrow, shouldn't the temple fair be over?" Bai Susu held Zhou Ximing's hand and looked up at him.

"Well, it's time for us to go back to the capital." Seeing her reluctance, Zhou Ximing gently pulled up her hair and pinned it behind her ear, "If you like this kind of scene, if you have a chance in the future, I will let you I'll take you over to have a look."

"Okay." Bai Susu responded with a smile, but she knew in her heart that such opportunities would become more and more rare in the future.

After the temple fair was over, Bai Susu followed a group of people and left the temple to return to the capital.

After the annual sacrifice, the Spring Festival is not far away.After careful calculation, this is Bai Susu's second Spring Festival here.

As early as the middle of the twelfth lunar month, Bai Susu started to get busy, and the shops in the capital became more and more prosperous.What Bai Susu didn't expect was that the most popular shop turned out to be the grain shop he opened.

When the price of food increased, only Bai Susu's shop kept the price of food as usual.So even though it is far away from Bai Susu's shop, those common people like to come here to buy food.

Bai Susu, who understood the reason, asked Shan Yu to secretly visit the grain shops around, and found that the grain stores in each store were running out, and they could barely support the New Year.

Bai Susu, who came back from the outside, wanted to go to the study to discuss this matter with Zhou Ximing.As soon as he walked to the door of the study, he heard the sound of conversation inside.

"Your Highness, the national treasury is now empty, and the food in Tang City is not enough to maintain the supply of the other major cities, what should we do?"

"Why don't we reduce the payment of the DPRK and China's salary and use it to subsidize the people?"

This sentence affected the interests of other ministers, so he immediately rejected the proposal and decided to think of a new method.

"Ministers are unwilling to contribute, and the national treasury is empty. Could it be possible to let those people starve to death?" A clear and moist voice sounded, with sarcasm in his tone.

His words fell, and there was no other sound in the room.After a while, someone made a sound, but it was crying poor.

"Your Highness, we are also living a difficult life, and there is really no food left."

Bai Susu stood at the door and listened to the words of the people inside, and inevitably rubbed her brows. Just listening to this for a while gave people a headache.

"Ma'am, why are you standing here in this cold weather?" A Ying came to deliver the letter, saw Bai Susu standing at the door of the study, and asked aloud.

Before Bai Susu had time to say anything to Ah Ying, he saw that the door of the study had been opened from the inside.Zhou Ximing walked to Bai Susu's side in three steps and two steps, held her cold fingers,
"I wanted to discuss something with you, but when I saw someone in your study, I wanted to wait outside." Bai Susu lifted the stove in her hand, "I brought a warmer."

Zhou Ximing still insisted on holding her finger, but did not deliver it.

"Your Highness, a letter from the magistrate of Tangcheng." A Ying handed over the letter in his hand, with a serious face, obviously things were not optimistic.

"Come in and talk." Zhou Ximing took Bai Susu back to the study, let her sit by the stove, and then reached out to receive the letter that A Ying handed over.

There is only one-tenth of the grain in Tangcheng's granary, which can be supplied to the people of Tangcheng until the spring harvest, but it is not allowed to be supplied to other cities.

Zhou Ximing handed the letter in his hand to Tang Jianshan, looked at the ministers sitting around him with cold eyes, and said in a low voice, "If you still can't make a decision, everyone in the court will be reduced by [-]% of their salaries."

Hearing this sentence, the ministers around you looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't pay attention for a while.Hubu Shangshu looked at Bai Susu, and said in a strange tone, "The last time there was a famine in the Northwest, the Crown Princess survived by herself. I wonder what the Crown Princess has to say?"

Women are never allowed to interfere in the affairs of the court, and they will never be affected by women.All the ministers frowned unanimously when they saw that the Secretary of the Household Department pointed the finger at Bai Susu.

But they also knew the reason why Hubu Shangshu did this in their hearts.It wasn't because he asked his daughter to go to the temple fair to block His Highness the Crown Prince, trying to find another way to marry his daughter to the Crown Prince.

As a result, stealing chickens failed to make money, not only failed, but was also criticized by the prince, and even that commendable talent was compared to a poem by the prince, and now his reputation is going from bad to worse.

"If all the ministers have nothing to do, what can I do?" Bai Susu smiled, and replied with a lot of effort: "There is a Minister of the Household Department in the imperial court, just to ask you to ask me, a woman, if there is a solution?"

Hubu Shangshu was silenced by Bai Susu, he flicked his sleeves and said nothing.

Seeing this, Tang Jianshan who was sitting beside him couldn't help showing a smile.None of these ministers can speak up to the crown prince and concubine.

"That's the end of today's discussion, you all step down now." Zhou Ximing looked at these ministers, frowned slightly, and began to order to evict the guests.

"Yes, I will take my leave." They all stood up, bowed to Zhou Ximing, left the study, and disappeared after a while.

In the huge study room, only Bai Susu, Zhou Ximing, and A Ying were left.

"They run fast." Bai Susu couldn't help sighing.

"If they stay, they won't be able to think of any solution. Naturally, they will run away when they get the chance." Zhou Ximing explained as he was used to.

Every time you encounter a major problem, it is difficult to find an easy-to-implement solution without spending two or three days.

"I also know something about the problem of food shortage." Bai Susu refilled the stove with charcoal in his hand, raised his eyes to look at Zhou Ximing, "I have a solution."
