Things like this, which enriched Xia Boran's pocket and tarnished the reputation of the General's Mansion, were something Xia Boran had done many times in his previous life.
So this time, Xia Boran was willing to sell himself the surplus grain in the Prime Minister's Mansion at market price to support his work.
Xia Chiwan is really not greedy at all, thank God.
Don't think she didn't notice that her father's eyes were filled with pain when he was talking about this matter.
Yes, the rice and grain he donated were all in vain.[
If the Seventh Prince hadn't entrusted this matter to her, this matter would have earned her a reputation.
Otherwise, her father would never hand over the remaining food even if he died.
This time, the person Xia Chiwan wanted to deal with was not Xia Boran.
In addition, in this matter, Xia Boran's money was at least a hundred thousand taels different from his previous life.
For this reason, this is already a big punishment for Xia Boran.
Once this rice grain is sold, Xia Chiwan can be sure.
In the following days, her father couldn't sleep well for at least half a month at night.
It’s all a pain in the ass!
Princess Chuyun glanced at Xia Boran and Xia Chiwan thoughtfully.
But in the end, Princess Chuyun didn't say anything else.
As soon as this event started, all the officials from the imperial court, big and small, brought over their huge piles of surplus grain.
Naturally, the General's Mansion would not lag behind others, even the new in-laws of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lord Wei, appeared.
To Xia Chiwan, Duke Wei was definitely an old man with a white beard.
But Lord Wei is in good spirits.
When Lord Wei saw Xia Chiwan, he kept praising Xia Chiwan as a good boy.
Not to mention, when everyone adds firewood, the flames will rise.
The surplus grain sold by officials of all sizes in Kyoto City is really not a small amount when put together.
The Prime Minister's Mansion alone can sell hundreds of kilo worth of rice and grain. In fact, some officials only have dozens of kilo worth of food, while many officials, like the prime minister's mansion, can sell hundreds of kilo worth of rice.
(One liter is four kilograms. Based on this, one stone is about four hundred kilograms.)[
Adding all the pieces together, Xia Chiwan actually had thousands of dan of food in his hand.
You know, although ordinary people don't have enough rice, they still have some at home.
Therefore, coupled with what Xia Chiwan sold, the people had enough food to last at least four months.
Xia Chiwan thought about it and doubled the amount based on the original amount.
Everyone can buy six liters of grain from Xia Chiwan.
In this way, a family of several people can survive for at least half a year.
Then the people can survive the drought until the autumn harvest.
Xia Chiwan had so much surplus food on hand, which greatly exceeded the needs of Kyoto City.
Therefore, Xia Chiwan also transported the remaining grain to other cities.
Jingguan'er took the lead and sold it to Xia Chiwan at the market price.
It is impossible for local officials to turn a blind eye to the places where Xia Chiwan sends grain.
Xia Chiwan is a woman, so naturally she cannot do everything herself in every city.
But Xia Chiwan can't be believed by just anyone.
The more chaotic it is, the easier it is for things to go wrong.
