The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 559: No shortage of money, no shortage of food

Chapter 559: Not short of money but short of food

When the little girl is showing off, she must not be interrupted and let her enjoy herself.

This is Pei Haos previous experience.

Du Wan made a cross gesture, "It's one hundred thousand taels of silver! There is also a snow-white round bead, the size of an egg. It emits a soft light at night and is very beautiful. I don't know what kind of bead it is, but The one the queen took out must be very precious."

Anyway, she liked it very much.

Du Wan thought happily and looked for this box again.

Oh, its silver again, but its only ten thousand taels.

Those who have seen one hundred thousand taels will inevitably feel disgusted by the next ten thousand taels.

Pei Hao knocked her on the forehead and cursed with a smile: "Come on, you don't want to give it to me."

"Don't even think about it! No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat." Du Wan's disgusted face instantly disappeared, and she put the banknote away with a smile.

Make a fortune!

The farm is short of money.

Pei Hao smiled teasingly and said, "Wanwan, do you know that you have two nicknames?"

"What nickname, why haven't I heard of it?" Du Wan thought it was impossible. She had already known the nickname. There was no reason why her source of information was not as well-informed as him.

Pei Hao satisfied her curiosity, "The boy who makes money!"

What? Du Wan blinked her eyes.

A boy who makes money is also a boy who scatters money.

"...Who is so idle that it hurts? I am so poor." Du Wan would not admit that she was rich. Although her net worth may be said to be the richest among the daughters of the Qin family, the things the emperor left to her were , it looks like its about 10%, thats a lot sincere.

Coupled with the miscellaneous things she earned, it adds up to a very rich sum.

This nickname was mentioned by some powerful people in private chats, and it spread among a small area in private.

The emperor spends a lot of money, where does the money come from?

Those people can find the shadow of Princess Jiaoyang if they check it secretly.

When it comes to Princess Jiaoyang, everyone knows her. You must know that she is the only princess with a title. Even the princess Qin Yuyu has never received a title or a fief.

In the past, when chatting with others, I was still a little worried about Qin Yuyu.

Now Qin Yuyu is "sick" and has died.

It is said that the palace only stayed in mourning for three days before burying the person. The funeral was extremely simple. The emperor was said to have fallen ill from grief and continued to recuperate in his palace. Du Qian was temporarily responsible for handling affairs at court. The queen is still imprisoned in Dongfeng Palace.

All the powerful people with some brains guessed that there must be something fishy, but no one dared to investigate rashly.

Du Wan has been outside for a few days, and Pei Hao mentioned it during a chat today, and then he remembered his cheap elder brother who was handling government affairs in the palace, "How is my elder brother?"

"He." Pei Hao smiled happily.

Hows it going?

My face is getting darker day by day, and my temper is getting louder and louder every day. Pei Hao would not say that Du Qians temper was only directed at him. He is currently in charge of the Imperial Guard and often hangs around the palace, so it is inevitable that he will encounter Du Qian every day.

Du Wan imagined Du Qian getting angry, and the first thing he thought of was how he often beat Pei Hao, "Who is responsible for the Imperial City Department?"

"Gu Li, he did a good job, so he was promoted."

Hes lucky.

Yeah. Pei Hao did not deny Gu Li's luck.

Even if you take the imperial examination, it is almost impossible to reach the top position of the Imperial City Department in such a short time. Speaking of which, it was still related to Pei Hao's promotion.

Du Wan thought of something and stood up to go to the palace.

In the end, Pei Hao pulled him back, "Why are you going to the palace?" "What can you do? Of course you are looking for my brother."

Dont, dont go!

Pei Hao took the little girl's wrist and asked her to sit down, "He is upset, why are you going to cause him trouble?"

Are those old foxes in the court relying on their old age to cause trouble for my elder brother? Du Wan thought that this was the most likely possibility.

Some, not serious, its a food problem.

Pei Hao held her down, preventing her from running away, and mentioned the current situation in the court to her. Don't look at the fact that the capital city is still very stable now, chaos is already brewing in remote places, and the government is about to be unable to suppress it, not even the army can.

Don't talk about the common people, even if they have money, they have nowhere to buy food.

Now there is not enough food in the army everywhere, and the food has been reduced from three meals a day to two meals a day.

In a little while, Im afraid Ill have to eat one meal a day.

Pei Hao knew about this problem. He had it as early as two years ago. "Originally, the emperor's policy was very good. He never failed to provide disaster relief. But last year, we encountered a raging locust plague, and people in many places had no harvest..."

What do you mean? Du Wan felt that he missed the point.

Pei Hao added, "It's food. Even grain seeds are lacking."

In the past, everyone would starve to death, so how could the people care about saving seeds?

No, during the spring plowing season, there is no grain in many places. This problem has been dragging on for half a month, and the government and the government still have not reached a conclusion. Now that Du Qian is acting in government affairs, it is natural for him to solve it.

Du Wans eyelids jumped when she heard this.

The emperor's uncle is really good at passing the blame! Sympathy for the cheap brother!

Pei Hao looked around and whispered mysteriously: "The money the princess gave to the emperor last year, he arranged hundreds of grain purchase teams last year, disguised as caravans to buy grain from surrounding countries."

Can you make it back in time?

Its a bit difficult. The team that comes back the fastest may not be able to catch up with the spring plowing.

What about the fleet you went to buy grain from? Du Wan hit the nail on the head.

Pei Hao was very bachelor, "Don't count on me. A trip to sea will take at least half a year. I think the emperor's intention is to let the Du family take action."

Du Wan was confused for a moment.

Pei Hao didn't quite understand it earlier. He had a private chat with his father and was awakened by his father.

Du Wan tried to make Pei Hao speak more clearly, but he shut up, with an unfathomable expression on his face. Du Wan was so angry that she wanted to beat him to death.

The current crisis in the Qin Kingdom is not a lack of money, but a lack of food.

In the original work, the heroine has a planting space, which alleviates this crisis to a great extent. If she had no planting space, the food problem would be much more serious than what is described in the book.

Aware of this problem, Du Wan's good mood about making a windfall suddenly disappeared.

After separating from Pei Hao and returning to Yulingyuan, Du Wan still looked haggard.

Ningqin asked with concern: "Princess, you don't look too happy."

"Yes, I'm not happy." Du Wan glanced at her weakly, "Ah, you four are quite old, aren't you? It's time to get married?"

Ningqins face turned red.

The other three were pretending to be busy and were embarrassed when they heard this.

Huayi quickly expressed her loyalty and said, "I don't want to get married. I want to serve the princess all my life."

Same goes for you, my slave. Ningqin said quickly.

Luoqi and Shuxiang both expressed that they did not want to get married and wanted to serve their masters all their lives, etc. They were really nice words that did not cost money, and they were said very skillfully. They may have rehearsed them in their minds countless times.
