    King Zhou complained in his heart, but because he didn't go back, he was beaten by the old man, and because he didn't go back, he was scolded as incompetent, so he used all his strength.  Call all the big businessmen over and stay there without paying them.  Anyway, I only eat steamed buns every day, forcing those big businessmen to take money.  If you need money, you still need your life. If you need money, just accept it slowly. One of my noble princes will also eat Qingshui Steamed Buns, and you will have to eat them too.  The victims were not even allowed to eat steamed buns.

    Shen Hu used his great talent and influence among the scholars to affectionately sell Princess Wenwan, a 10-year-old girl, and sold all his wealth, vowing to rescue the victims.  The image is vividly drawn.  Literati and celebrities in Jiangnan read his masterpiece one after another, and those who read this article were extremely moved.  Even the ladies in the boudoir admired and vowed to imitate the gentle princess and donated generously.

    Because of this, many scholars, after making their own donations, heard that the wealthy businessmen were reluctant to donate, and they wrote poems and cursed them.  If you don¡¯t donate for a day, I will write and scold you every day.  None of those businessmen want to be known as being rich and unkind.  Coupled with Zhou Wang's arrogance, the two men used both civil and military tactics on the wealthy people in Jiangnan, and those wealthy businessmen and merchants finally dug into their pockets.  Those who had food were given food, and those who had no food were given money.  They raised more food and money than they imagined, and the food was transferred to Henan.  Take the money back to the capital.  This errand was completed relatively smoothly.

    Henan

    "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that when you showed the secret report you found to the shopkeeper of Tai Feng Bank, he was so scared that he broke into tears. We successfully borrowed the food. Now we have received the news that the rescue food will arrive in ten days. These  The food should be used sparingly, and it should be enough to support the court. "My lord, you can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being." Shen Jian got the news.  Finally breathed a sigh of relief.

    King Zheng shook his head, he was really worried.  The food obtained can only last for four or five days, and with the addition of the wild vegetables dug up, it can only last for seven or eight days.  It would be okay if the imperial court could deliver the food on time.  But the court, or some people, how could it be so easy for him to complete this errand?

    At this moment, a piece of news came out that made him overjoyed.

    "Your Majesty, there are 100,000 shi of food in the south of the Yangtze River that will arrive in two days." King Zheng opened his eyes wide and didn't believe it at all.  How is this possible?  I just said it would arrive in ten days.  When did the court's speed of doing things become so fast?  Go out quickly and ask the person who replied.

    "Good luck to you, Your Majesty. I am a clerk from the Yu family of Lifa Trading Company." A strong man in Tsing Yi knelt down and saluted.  It's obvious that he is a practicing master.

    "There are really 100,000 dans of grain? Will it arrive in two days? What's going on?" King Zheng knew that the legitimate daughter of the second master of Lifa Trading Company was the concubine of King Zhao, and she was quite favored.  these years.  I gave Lao Wu a lot of money.  The fact that Lao Wu was able to have such smooth sailing might have a lot to do with having plenty of money.  Everyone knows that money is easy to get things done.

    "One hundred thousand loads of grain is absolutely true. It will arrive the day after tomorrow. It was our young master's order, and our sixth young master will deliver it in person. I asked our sixth young master to go ahead and inform the prince so that the prince can prepare for receiving the grain.  As for the source of this food, there is a story. This is food purchased from my young master¡¯s family and donated to the disaster area.¡± That guy was very articulate.  In just a few words, I can clearly explain the origin and context of the matter.

    "Ahwhat is going on? Please explain clearly." King Zheng was stunned for a while.

    The guy explained clearly the cause and effect, and King Zheng couldn't help laughing anymore.  This girl not only plotted against Fuling, but also the most famous businessman in the Qi Dynasty.  Okay, it's time to make a calculation. The kid has been really depressed in the past few years.

    The boy bowed to the kiln and spoke respectfully.  "My sixth young master is on the ship delivering food. If the prince needs help from my boss, please tell him."

    A flash of light flashed out of King Zheng's eyes, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.  He smiled and said, "I accept this intention. You tell him, and I will remember his words."

    "Yes. There are still 400,000 dans of grain, which will be delivered one after another. This can alleviate the emergency for the time being." King Zheng nodded.  The guy went down.

    "Your Majesty, does Yu Feiyang say this to defect to the Prince? But why?" Shen Jian was a little confused.  Yu Feiyang is King Zhao's sworn enemy. If King Zhao ascends the throne, their Yu family will have a royal concubine.

    "It's nothing more than a bet on a future. He bets his treasure on me. Haha, it's interesting. It's indeed interesting. That girl's behavior is really unpredictable. Haha, how do you use other people's money?  It's so comfortable. This is the first time that this king has done such a pleasant errand. He picked up such a big and cheap one!" King Zheng felt much relieved when he learned that the food was coming.

      Now, the last worry is gone.  Because the court's speed of doing things would sometimes slow down a bit, and there would be natural obstacles and so on.  Now with the help of Lifa Trading Company and these hundreds of thousands of loads of grain, we can survive for at least a month.  He didn't even have the last bit of worry.

    King Zheng lowered his head and said with a smile, "Go, open the notice and tell the people of Henan. Princess Wenwan donated all her wealth to help the victims, and also sold her mansion to raise hundreds of thousands of loads of food to help them tide over the difficulties. These  The food will arrive the day after tomorrow, so they don't have to worry about running out of food. Let them know that the whole government is united to help them overcome this difficulty. They don't have to worry about it because the princess is kind to the court.  Something will happen."

    Shen Jian was stunned. This was to build momentum for Princess Wenwan. "But, in the capital, the emperor"

    King Zheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is a fact and I am not making it up. I am just doing this to reassure the people. My father will not blame me. As for Wen Wan, my father has no time to cherish her."  , how can you blame me?"

    A few days later, Wen Wan's name spread throughout Henan again after Jiangnan.

    On the appointed day, the food was delivered on time.  The people near the pier had seen several large ships. The workers at the pier carried them down in large packages. They were indeed full of food, and the people's morale was immediately stabilized.

    King Zheng personally met with Yu Feiyang¡¯s younger brother, Yu Feilin.  After meeting King Zheng, Yu Feilin's attitude was very sincere.  It also represented their house and his eldest brother to express their intention to surrender to King Zheng.  King Zheng also readily accepted it.  The process was very pleasant.

    King Zheng even kept Yu Feilin for meals. After the meal, Yu Feilin and his party left the mansion where King Zheng temporarily lived.

    King Zheng looked at Yu Feilin's back, thinking in his mind. He hadn't started yet, but he didn't expect that the Yu family would come closer.  The Yu family can be regarded as one of the financial supports of Lao Wuliangcai, and there is another family, the Jiang family.  It's just that he values ??the Jiang family more because the person in charge of the Jiang family is the son-in-law of Mr. Luo Liu.  Yu Feiyang, a business genius, was not reused.  But, why did Yu Feiyang turn to him?

    Speaking of which, although this errand proved that his father valued him more now, there was no evidence that he had more advantages.  King Zheng thought of a possibility and smiled.  Could it be that Yu Feiyang lost to Wen Wan because Wen Wan fell into his trap.  So I was impressed.  Thinking of this, King Zheng suddenly laughed.  No matter what the reason was, as long as Yu Feiyang expressed this attitude, he would have no room for regret.  Not bad, interesting.  I wonder if Lao Wu will be so angry that he wants to kill someone!

    King Zheng suddenly laughed when he thought of this.  Over the years, he has been suppressed by King Zhao and has never won once.  Unexpectedly, he would win twice this time, especially because Yu Feiyang's rebellion made King Zhao completely disgraceful.  Haha, quite comfortable.

    "Young Master, the eldest young master is making a big gamble. Sixth Young Master, what do you think after seeing Prince Zheng, so that I can make some plans?" the confidant butler next to him asked hurriedly.

    "Tell your father that King Zheng's intelligence and ability are not inferior to those of King Zhao. He is also very polite to me. Besides, the matter has come to this, and there is no way to go back no matter how much you care about. Tell your father that he must use all his strength.  It¡¯s okay to spend more money. I will go to the capital to meet my eldest brother, and then I will go home and tell my father in person.¡± After finishing this, the sixth young master Yu Feilin wrote, fearing that it would be inappropriate.  received a letter.  After handing it over to the steward, he took another boat and headed straight for the capital.

    Prince Zhao¡¯s Mansion

    "Yu family, Yu Feiyang, how dare you, how dare you betray me" King Zhao heard the news and his head was filled with smoke.

    "Businessmen are not trustworthy in their pursuit of profits. There is no need for the prince to be angry. Without him, Yu Feiyang will not harm the overall situation." A staff member advised him from the side.

    Mr. Zhuang shook his head, "This is a very bad sign. This shows that in Yu Feiyang's eyes, Prince Zheng and the prince have the capital to compete with each other. Otherwise, these profit-rich businessmen would not be able to make such a big bet."  "My lord, please arrange this carefully."

    King Zhao naturally knew this, which is why he was so annoyed.  Otherwise, he would not take it seriously just for the two hundred thousand taels of silver a year.  These merchants dare to open dyeing workshops if they are given some color.

    In the capital city, Yanghe Hall

    The emperor looked at Mi Zhe with this fire in his eyes.  But at this moment, they cannot be touched, otherwise it will cause chaos.  It can only come slowly.  If these moths were just a little bit careful, there would be such disasters there.  When necessary, he would pick them up one by one.

    Before the emperor could issue any orders, the Henan censor impeached Ma Tiankui, Yuan Fan, and Lu He for collaborating and embezzling the money used to build the dam.  And commanded dozens ofThe people were displaced and suffered countless injustices.

    In the court, this matter was a big deal.  Even if the emperor wants to suppress it temporarily, it will be impossible to deal with it after the disaster relief work is completed.  Because this matter involves more than just Henan.  But because all the officials, big and small, dug into their pockets, they felt resentful.  If they had built the levees properly, they would not have had to pay for it.  That is to say, someone else took out their money in disguise and moved it back home for these big borers.  (To be continued)
