Yang Ershi is a blessed man. His father, Yang Dashan, is a wealthy man in the south of the Yangtze River who favors boys over girls. He gave birth to nineteen daughters and finally gave birth to a son. You can imagine Yang Ershi’s status in the family since he was a child.
Definitely not something that his brothers-in-law can compare to.
As soon as he turned sixteen, Yang Dashan handed over the main business of the Yang family to him. When he was seventeen, he made a marriage to Princess Pingyang Li Waner, the youngest daughter of His Majesty the Emperor, and the wife of Empress Fengguan.
She was born, Princess Pingyang is also the daughter of countless favors. The two have been married for two years and have a son who has just turned one year old. The world has not been peaceful in the past two years. In the past, they lived in Princess Pingyang's mansion to wait for childbirth. Last year, she was pregnant.
After the elder Yunmen's poisoning incident, Yang Laoshan felt that he would not live long and that he would not be able to live without a grandson before his death, so he asked Yang Ershi to give up his mother's life.
The two of them arrived at Hanyang City.
As soon as Yang Ershi returned home, he walked through the front door and saw Yang Dashan, who was already very old. He was sneaking around in the yard with his eldest grandson in his arms. The good-looking Li Waner was holding a milk bottle beside him and kept talking.
Said: "Father, please slow down, don't drop Bao'er."
Yang Ershi asked his father to hand Bao'er to his wife and have a secret talk with his father in the back hall.
Although Yang Dashan is old, he has lived a long life after all. Yang would consult his old father privately on many things he didn't understand.
Entering the study, Yang Dashan said: "Twenty, you don't look very good. Did something happen?"
Yang Ershi said: "Dad, a catastrophe has occurred in southern Xinjiang. Your Majesty has already mobilized his troops to garrison at Yingzui Cliff in southwestern Hunan. Those cultivation sects have also begun to gather towards Yuanmou. Now Jiangnan, Jiannan, and Bashu are all empty.
Sister Nineteen asked me to immediately arrange for you to take refuge in Cangyun Mountain."
Yang Dashan's expression didn't seem to have changed much. After all, he was an old businessman who was extremely wealthy, and he was related to the emperor. What big scene had he not seen before?
The catastrophe has been spreading in the world for more than two years. He had long known that such a day would come. He thought deeply: "Our Yang family has hundreds of people in the direct line. If we add in the descendants of the collateral line, there are several
Thousands of people, Cangyun Sect is a sect of the Immortal Family. Even if you look at your face, you will not let us take refuge as a family. What's more, there are hundreds of thousands of strong men who eat with our Yang family.
Man, how can such a big property be thrown away so easily? You take Wan'er and Bao'er to Cangyun to find your 19th sister, and just leave a piece of incense for the Yang family. Others should not go, lest they
I'm causing trouble for your 19th sister. As for dad, your aunts, and those sisters and brothers-in-law, don't worry. I've lived for so many years, dad, and I'm always getting older, but I'm not so old that I can't walk anymore.
I have heard His Majesty the Emperor say several times that the catastrophe was so brutal that not even a blade of grass grew in its path. The connection between southern Xinjiang and the Central Plains was at least tens of thousands of miles away, and an Eagle's Beak Cliff could not stop it.
Live here. The top priority now is not to let the Yang family lose its incense."
Yang Ershi shook his head and said: "I have decided to stay and guard the Yangtze River route and the Meilin Ancient Road. These two transportation lines are the lifeline of Yingzui Cliff. Dad, I have arranged for a big ship to be at the dock and will send you away early tomorrow morning.
."
Yang Dashan still shook his head stubbornly and said: "I am old, how many years can I live even if I hide in Cangyun Gate? It is you young people who should go..."
The father and son were arguing, and there was a knock on the study room, and then they saw Li Waner walking in.
Li Waner said: "Father, husband, someone from Cangyun Sect is here."
"What?"
After hearing this, the father and son hurried out and came to the front living room, where they saw a man in purple sitting with a smile.
This man Yang Ershi had met once. He was a senior member of Cangyun Sect during the Great War in Western Hunan a year ago. He had met him once at the foot of Langya Mountain.
The man in purple clothes stood up and said, "I haven't seen you for a year. Brother Yang, I hope you are fine."
Yang Ershi said in surprise: "Master Gu! Why are you here?"
The name of Gujianchi is as loud as thunder in the world, crushing Zen Master Jie Kong and Dao Master Li Xuanyin. Now even three-year-old children in the entire Jiangnan Province know that the person who will take over Cangyun Sect in the future must be Gujianchi. Yang Ershi
Unexpectedly, Gu Jianchi would come. Gu Jianchi said: "I took the liberty to come here this time for two things. One is the order of my master Yu Jizi. Now that the world is in chaos, it is estimated that many people will be in trouble.
At the same time, many people will flee. The Yang family is the largest grain merchant in the five areas south of the Yangtze River. Master asked me to ask, the Yang family
Is the granary sufficient and how long can it last? Now the imperial court's food mainly supplies tens of millions of troops and young men. Once a disaster strikes, the five Jiangnan roads south of the Yangtze River will all rely on merchants like you." Yang Ershi did not.
Speaking, Yang Dashan said: "Please rest assured, Old God Yujizi, my Yang family has more than 3,000 large and small granaries in the south of the Yangtze River, and they are all full, even in Bashu, Hanzhong, Jiangnan, Jiannan, Lingnan and other places
After three years of no harvest, the food of my Yang family can still feed me.
The people of these five and sixty-three states. I can also contact several other grain merchants in the south of the Yangtze River to ensure food supply."
Gu Jianchi let out a long breath and said: "My father-in-law said this, I feel relieved, but my master said that no matter when, the price of food cannot be raised on the ground, we must ensure that the price of food is at a low price, so that
All the people can afford it." Yang Dashan said humanely: "I can't guarantee that for other merchants, if it really comes to a life-and-death situation, our Yang family's food can be supplied free of charge without taking any penny. I heard your majesty say about the catastrophe.
A few times, I know the importance, not to mention that my nineteen-year-old girl is a disciple of the old immortal Qingfeng, I, Yang
The family will definitely stand with Cangyunmen forever to ensure the stability of Jiangnan."
Gu Jianchi felt that Ye Xiaochuan had done a great thing by mistake when he sent Yang Jiujiu to Cangyun Gate through a letter of introduction.
Not only did Cangyun Sect gain a cultivation wizard with almost the same qualifications as Yun Qiyou, but he also won over the extremely wealthy Yang family.
Since the news of the catastrophe, the Yang family has been shrinking its industry. Dozens of wineries that consume a lot of grain have been closed. Countless granaries have been built. While collecting grain, they also purchase raw hemp in large quantities. It seems that they are preparing for this.
Prepare for a catastrophe.
Jiangnan is rich and the world is rich.
This sentence is no joke.
More than 30 of the sixty-three prefectures including Jiangnan and Jiannan are major grain-producing areas, especially the three-crop rice in Lingnan. The seven prefectures in Lingnan alone can feed almost half of the people of China.
The three major grain-producing areas in the world are the Jiangnan Plain, the Jianghuai Plain, and the Northeast Plain. All three plains have had good years in the past three years. Not only the imperial court's grain reserves are sufficient, but the merchants' grain reserves are also sufficient.
Because the rumors of the catastrophe are spreading more and more, ordinary people's families have plenty of food. Yang Dashan is really not bragging. Even if there is no harvest in the entire Middle Earth within three years, it is unlikely that people will starve to death.
