First Prince of Ming Dynasty Chapter 413

  Chapter 413 The Lion's Big Opening

After Zhu Biao gave his orders, he got up and went to the warehouse of the guard to check the food. It was really piled up like a mountain of food. You must know that the food sent by the court one after another is completely enough to relieve the victims, but how many starved to death did Zhu Biao see along the way? refugee?

   Those victims starved to death not because the imperial court did not send enough food, but because their life-saving rations were hacked and stored here. Zhu Biao untied a grain bag casually, and reached out to grab a full amount of rice.

  Zhu Biao put his palms together and rubbed it together, then put it under his nose and sniffed it. It was old rice, but it was well stored. It looked like it was shipped from the Jiangnan gentry, and it was better than the military rations of the imperial court.

Zhu Biao looked around carefully again, untied the food bag from time to time and smelled it, and then felt more at ease, the food was indeed sufficient, and fortunately they didn't have time to transfer or burn it, otherwise Zhu Biao would punish their nine clans and it wouldn't help ?

   Commanded Tang Shizhong who was on the side: "Immediately pack a batch and send it to Fucheng for disaster relief. Don't be too stingy and place more rice. Of course, you have to control it. After all, the victims have been hungry for too long."

Tang Shizhong promised, and the captain behind him immediately waved his hand. The soldiers of the government army and guards are all strong and strong, and they can work very quickly. Zhu Biao then mentioned: "The government will definitely come to make trouble, don't be afraid , those savage servants who come to make trouble might as well be ruthless, and kill them if they kill them."

  The King of Hades loves to deal with little ghosts. It is not an exaggeration to say that these local officials are evil. Zhu Biaoben intends to kill the chickens to warn the monkeys, but because they are an indispensable part of disaster relief, they cannot all be killed.

"The situation in Qingyang Mansion is even worse than that in Pingliang Mansion. Although the main palace of Fengxiang Mansion has not been there yet, it is expected that the situation will not be good. They packed a batch of food and sent it overnight. The leading soldiers picked the smartest ones and arrived at the place. The local government on the opposite side might as well take a tough attitude, but the focus should still be on disaster relief and peace of the people!"

Tang Shizhong and others hurriedly agreed, Zhu Biao expected that the news of Wang Shijian's death would soon spread to nearby state capitals, enough to frighten them so that they would not dare to mess around again for the time being. The military guards of the government personally escorted the food, and no one dared to stretch out their hands indiscriminately.

  This is the way of the world. The good are afraid of the evil, the evil are afraid of the violent, and the violent are afraid of the deadly.

Zhu Biao did not reveal his identity for the time being because he was worried that they would die. Although Zhu Biao could not be hurt by the dog jumping over the wall, the victims of the disaster would inevitably be affected. After all, it was his own people. It was already suffering enough. Zhu Biao couldn't bear the turmoil they were suffering. .

In the afternoon, the grain trucks in Pingliang Prefecture were loaded, the military and guards were the main force, and the Chen family's seasoned men were the assistants. They went to Pingliang Prefecture to give porridge outside the city. After forcing some government servants to help, they started working. .

  Chen Rongyan also set out to blackmail those officials, Zhu Biao went back to the room and had a quick bite of food, and then hurriedly sent someone to contact Quan Xu, Zhang Fan and others where they were.

Afterwards, there were many things to do. Zhu Biao also made a plan some time ago, but after he calculated it, he found that there was a shortage of manpower everywhere. Shaanxi and Gansu were too big. There was such a big shortage of officials in such a large area and so many victims waiting to be fed. Zhu Biao had to be cautious.

  At night, Qing Lian came to deliver the medicinal meal cooked by herself. Liu An checked it carefully before sending it to Zhu Biao.

  Zhu Biao looked up at Liu An and Qing Lian impatiently and said, "Didn't I say you don't need dinner?"

   Liu An hurriedly persuaded: "Master, your body is just better, how can you not eat, eat more or less, I beg you."

  Zhu Biao exhaled, threw away the writing brush in his hand and pinched the center of his brows tiredly: "Is Quan Xu here yet?"

   "If you come back to the Lord, not yet, but I guess it will be there tomorrow morning at the latest."

Zhu Biao got the news just now that Quan Xu had arrived in Qingyang, but that was the news two days ago. If Quan Xu hadn't wasted much time in Qingyang, he would have arrived soon, which also shows that this era of communication How backward the means are is really driving people crazy.

   At this time, Qinglian was standing aside obediently. She was smart, and she had been observing words and expressions since elementary school. Especially after Zhu Biao was sure that she was just an ordinary beautiful woman and not a spy, she didn't deliberately hide anything from her.

  Now she naturally knows Zhu Biao's identity, but not only did she not take the initiative to post it, but she behaved very well, making Liu An and others give her a high look.

  After Zhu Biao drank the medicinal meal, he waved them away and waited until Quan Xu was in the middle of the moon, so Zhu Biao fell asleep.

The next morning, Zhu Biao was suddenly awakened by an indescribable smell. He opened his eyes in confusion and thought for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he got out of bed with bare feet and opened the window. The outside world was gray and dark, cold and small. The soft raindrops slapped Zhu Biao's face with the slanting wind, which refreshed him.

  Zhu Biao stretched out a hand out of the window and sighed softly: "It's finally raining, which is a good sign."

   Zhao Huaian screamed when he heard the figure coming in, hurriedly picked up his robe and put it on him, Zhu Biao took a few deep breaths, the breath of the breeze and drizzle mixed with the soil penetrated his heart, it was an indescribable enjoyment.

  Zhu Biao's favorite thing since he was a child is to move a stool and sit on the threshold of the window to watch the rain when it rains, not only through the eyes but also through the nose through the skin to get that kind of satisfaction.

  The rain is not heavy, but for the drought-stricken Shaanxi and Gansu Provinces, it is already a blessing from God. The symbolic meaning is much greater than the actual meaning, unless the rain lasts for three days and three nights.

  Zhu Biao washed and dressed in a happy mood, then called Tang Shizhong and said: "It's raining, send more food today, cook some porridge and make some steamed buns."

  Tang Shizhong agreed, and then saw Chen Rongyan come in to report: "His Royal Highness, Fang Liangpin is willing to give another one hundred thousand taels of silver and thirty thousand hectares of fertile land, and only asks Tang Commander to push Wang Shijian's death to the remnants of the cult."

Zhu Biao frowned. It was too much fun. Naturally, Fang Liangpin and others made a lot of money, but Zhu Biao had already taken a lot out of his hands. It's all lost.

  Zhu Biao thought that Fang Liangpin would definitely not bear such a big loss by himself, and that everyone in his interest group should be drawn in. Could it be that he has changed his nature, or is he really scared?

  Zhu Biao pondered for a moment and said: "Five times more, it will cost 500,000 taels. Let them figure out a way immediately. If it is not enough within three days, it will be too late."

  Chen Rongyan twitched. He has been in business for half his life, and he earned tens of thousands of taels for his family. Now he is going to extort and extort for a lifetime and can't make any money. Life is full of surprises.
