"Go home, master, the people below have received the news, but the old patriarch feels that we have donated so much money, it is enough, and there is no need to spend more time collecting food."
Hearing this, the owner of the business family suddenly turned green.
"That old thing, miser!" he yelled.
Old stubborn people who know nothing but guard their family's money and know nothing else. Don't they know how rare this opportunity is?
Look at how embarrassed he was today when he went to deliver the money. He saw other families carrying cart after cart of food, but here he only had the money. The way the people looked at him, the head of the business family,
Everything is different.
Not just him, any of the other family heads who didn't raise food didn't stare at the family heads who donated food as if they were enemies.
As soon as he thinks that all this is because of the old man in his family, because he is guarding the little money of his family and is unwilling to give it away, he becomes angry.
"Why doesn't he know the importance? Is this the time to save a little money? He alone spends more than that amount of money in a year, right?"
He was so angry that he cursed loudly.
The attendant did not dare to reply. After all, the old patriarch was the elder of the family. Now that the patriarch was angry, he could curse a few words, but if he agreed, he would have to walk around without food after the patriarch stopped being angry.
"Master, why don't we go collect the grain now and send it to the Ministry of Household Affairs?" he suggested.
Hearing this, the head of the family gave him a fierce look.
What's the use of collecting grain now and then donating it? It's not the right time to follow the trend. Doing it now will only make him more embarrassed. Isn't this a reminder to others that his family is not smooth in handling affairs?
What's more, if they were to collect a lot of food now, he could be sure that those noble families who donated food would have bought up all the food in Kyoto and nearby areas.
They also collect grain. Only if they can receive grain can they be called ghosts. They definitely can’t buy it.
"Get out, get out!"
He was angry and kicked the attendant hard.
They are all those who succeed but fail more than they do. They can't do even the smallest things well. Why didn't other families know to notify him when other families were doing something as big as harvesting grain?
Needless to say, it must have been the old guy who didn't let the people below inform him!
…
"I didn't expect that there would be such a deal."
In the royal study, Qian Jiyun murmured softly when he saw the list handed over by the Ministry of Revenue.
"It's a pity that there is no food in Jiuyue, otherwise, we can still make a fortune."
"This food is enough to feed the border soldiers for a year." The emperor said with a smile on his face.
However, people below reported that the food in Kyoto was almost sold out by those noble families, and if they wanted to get more food, they would have to wait until the autumn harvest season.
During this time, we have to dispatch some food from other places to Kyoto.
"When are you leaving?" he asked.
"In a few days, I'll wait for you to try Lu'er's braised pork." Qian Jiyun said.
emperor:"……"
Forget it, he had heard that the little guys in Prince Zhan's Mansion couldn't have a peaceful day. They were either cooking this dish or that dish.
I feel sorry for the person who was trying the food for them. He didn't know how many times he had to go to the toilet a day.
"Have you tasted it?" he asked.
"Um?"
Qian Jiyun raised her eyebrows and looked at him.
Does he seem like the kind of person who would let himself be wronged?
