Chapter 163 Harvest (2)

In mid-September, Yuxi took Zaozao back to Yucheng. In the past few days, Yunqing has written letters, but they all said some trivial things, and there are no other trivial matters to bother her. But back to Yucheng, there are many things to do. The first thing is the thick list that Han Ji sent up.

Han Ji said: "Madam, all these things have been classified, Madam, how do I deal with them?" There are too many things this time, and many of them are not useful to children in the sales school.

Yuxi said: "I'll talk about it after I read it. By the way, what do you think of going to Xihai this time?" She asked Han Ji to go to Xihai, not just to buy leather and medicinal materials.

Han Ji said: "Ma'am, the West Sea is rich in materials and water, much richer than Shaanxi and Gansu."

Before Yuxi said anything, Han Ji continued: "Ma'am, although Xihai is rich, the people there are also living in hardship. The officials are very exploitative, and Tubo often attacks." Simply put, it is not a Peaceful place.

After hearing this, Yu Xi said: "I see, you go down first, I will distribute this list after I read it." This thing must be distributed at the end of the month.

It took Yuxi an afternoon to read through this thick list, and after closing the list, she couldn't help but smile and said: "This is really, the pancreas has been scraped over."

Zijin said: "Pancreatic soap is beyond the reach of ordinary people." Only rich people would buy this stuff.

This is not a big project, it took Yuxi three days to subdivide things. Books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones are all sent to the Qingming Hall; other fine cloths are sent to the Salesian Hospital to make clothes for those children; silk, satin, leather, etc. are rewarded by Yunqing to the soldiers who have made meritorious service ; All the medicinal materials were sent to the barracks. All the things are easy to put away, even the furniture is placed in the Salesian Home and Qingming Hall, the only trouble is the old clothes that Yuxi doesn't know how to dispose of.

Knowing Yuxi's embarrassment, Han Ji said, "Ma'am, the families of those soldiers who died in battle are having a hard time. I believe they will be very happy if they can get one or two clothes."

Yu Xi thinks it's not good: "It's not good for others to wear leftover clothes." Anyway, Yu Xi doesn't wear clothes worn by others.

Han Ji said: "Ma'am, these old clothes are three points better than new ones for them. Moreover, even if they don't wear them, they can change them by themselves." Han Ji said, this is simply not It's not a big deal, but Madam treats it like a big deal.

Yuxi frowned and said: "Let me think about it again." This has something to do with Yuxi's temperament. Thinking of her embroidery, it is obvious that the embroidery is perfect, but she feels that there is a flaw, and she would rather destroy it than take it. Come out and use it. It's the same with the clothes. It's okay to give someone new clothes, but it's so ugly to give someone old clothes.

Han Ji stopped talking nonsense, and said, "Ma'am, then I'll have someone deliver the things now?" The things have been put away for a long time, and it's time to distribute them.

Yu Xi nodded and said, "Go and do your work!"

When Wanxing Yunqing came back, Yuxi told him about it: "You said it would be bad to give away these old clothes?"

After hearing this, Yunqing knew Yuxi's thoughts, and said: "What's wrong, the life of the people in the border towns is hard, and ordinary people rarely make new clothes. The Xu family is so rich, even if it is worn by ordinary maids. The clothes are better for them than the new ones they bought." This is exactly what Han Ji said.

Yuxi still feels bad.

Yun Qing laughed and said: "They will only be happy when they get these things, and they won't think so much. You can rest assured and let Han Ji do it!"

Yuxi said: "Maybe I was thinking too much." After a pause, she asked again: "What do you plan to do with the money you got?"

Yun Qing pondered for a moment and said: "I originally wanted to use it to distribute pensions,

But this is too eye-catching. Therefore, the money is still put away first, and it will be taken out when the next year's life is difficult. "

Yuxi nodded and said: "It is really inappropriate to reveal these money now. Although the head of the Xu family and several important figures are dead, there are still people who know these secrets. However, there is a problem with the money not being used. What should we do if these things are filled into the national treasury?" Several heads of the Xu family died suddenly on the night they were imprisoned. As for who did it, it goes without saying.

Yun Qing sneered, and said: "Unless they want Yucheng to mutiny, they would not dare to put this money into the treasury." He had been evading the lack of money before, so he put up with his anger. Now that they have money, if they take it away and refuse to give it to them, they really think that they have no temper.

But Yuxi said worriedly: "But, even if the money from the magistrate's yamen is really used by you, plus the previous gold, silver and jewelry, the money can only be used for two years at most. Then what should I do in the future? You have to find a way to do it!"

When Yun Qing heard this, his face was a little gloomy: "Mr. Xia said that you can sell salt and cloth outside the pass."

Yuxi opened her mouth, but she didn't expect that Mr. Xia really proposed this matter to Yunqing. Yuxi was silent for a moment, and asked: "Do you agree?" In fact, looking at Yunqing's face, he knew that he did not agree.

Sure enough, Yun Qing shook his head and said, "No."

Yuxi is very aware of Yunqing's temper, if he hadn't been forced to do nothing, he would never do such a thing. Yuxi also believed that Marshal Qin must have been forced to do nothing, so he took this path. He didn't want Yunqing to follow this path, so he had to find other ways.

Thinking of this, Yuxi said to Yunqing: "Actually, I have a way, but it's just very difficult."

Yun Qing's eyes lit up, and he asked, "What can you do, tell me."

Yuxi said: "This time when Han Ji went to Xihai, I found that the prices of things in different places are very different. If we can form a large caravan, sell the special products of Xihai to Jiangnan or the capital, and then sell the things of the capital to other places , it must be huge profits.”

Yun Qing shook his head and said, "It's easier said than done. Apart from forming a caravan, if you encounter horse thieves and bandits, you will lose everything." Besides horse thieves and bandits, there are other risks. For example, the team leader must The vision is precise, and the timing must be grasped.

Yuxi said: "I know this, but if you can clean up all the bandits and thieves in the Shaanxi-Gansu area, then this problem will not be a problem."

Yun Qing was taken aback, and asked: "Yuxi, you know, I don't have this right. Without a transfer order, I can't send troops." If he can transfer troops, how can these horse thieves and bandits run amok in the northwest. "

Yuxi said: "This is the fundamental problem."

Yun Qing didn't understand the meaning of these words: "The fundamental problem? What is the fundamental problem?" The words were so vague that he really couldn't figure it out.

Yuxi glanced at Yunqing, and said: "You said that you have no right to send troops to destroy those horse thieves and bandits, have you never thought that you can sit in the position that has this right?"

Yun Qing shook his head and said: "The only one who can mobilize the Northwest Army is the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu. It is impossible for the court to let me be the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu." In this way, his power is too great, and the court cannot allow it.

Yuxi said: "There are no conditions, you can find a way to create conditions yourself. It's not like now, things can't be done before they are done. If you keep thinking like this, then nothing can be done." I don't know if it's because Born in a family of military generals, Yun Qing's actions are very rigid and will not be flexible. Just like Qin Zhao killed him again and again, but he didn't take action against Qin Zhao because of Marshal Qin's kindness. If it were her, knowing that Qin Zhao was going to kill her, she would not let Qin Zhao go.

These words are a bit heavy, Yun Qing's face is not very good-looking.

Yuxi said: "Although Mr. Xia's method is not appropriate, he has a good intention. Now that you have money on hand, you don't have to listen to Mr. Xia's words. But if you have no money in the future? At that time, you still have money. Do you want to persevere? But if your persistence caused many soldiers to die in the cold, would you still persevere?"

Yun Qing gritted his teeth and said, "I won't let that day happen."

After hearing this, Yuxi said, "If you want to earn millions of silver within a year, it is impossible to use normal channels, and you reject all other methods. How can you ensure that the soldiers can eat and wear warm?" After a pause, Yuxi said: "Actually, there is one thing I haven't said all this time. You clearly know that Qin Zhao is not suitable to be the chief general of Yucheng in terms of ability and character. Zhao fight?" Before Qin Zhao came to power, the Yu family had contacted Yunqing, but Yunqing refused.

Yun Qing said hoarsely, "I can't argue with him."

Yuxi said: "I know you don't want to fight with Qin Zhao because of Marshal Qin's kindness. But you never thought about why Marshal Qin would train you to take over his position instead of letting him take over from Qin Zhao? That's Marshal Qin knows that you are more suitable than Qin Zhao. He can put aside his personal interests. From the perspective of the overall situation, why are you afraid that you will bear the reputation of being ungrateful if you take the position of Marshal Qin? If you didn’t let it go, but With the help of the family's influence, so many people in Yucheng won't die in the spring battle?" Looking at Yunqing's uncertain expression, Yuxi said: "He Rui, why did Marshal Qin tolerate the Xu family's sale of supplies? To the outside of the customs? Doesn’t he know what the consequences will be if this matter is leaked? He knows, he has always known, but he still did it. He Rui, Marshal Qin is really a selfless person.” Regardless of his vision It's still a heart, Yunqing is not a little bit worse.

In terms of eloquence, none of the ten Yunqings is Yuxi's opponent.

Yuxi sighed heavily, and said: "Think about it for yourself! I'll go and see Zaozao." There are some things that Yunqing must figure out by himself, and it's useless to force them.

Seeing that Yuxi's expression was not right, Zijin asked, "Madam, did you quarrel with the general?" The two of them used to be sticky, but this was the first time they saw such an ugly expression on Yuxi's face. So, 100% quarrel.

Yuxi said: "There are so many words, just do your own business." In a peaceful and prosperous age, Yunqing's rigid temperament will be very popular with the superiors. But now it is the first world. In the first world, if Yun Qing still thinks about being loyal to the emperor and serving the country and passing it down through the ages, then their family will definitely have to pay for it all. It was also based on this consideration that she spoke so seriously just now. There was no other way, she couldn't let Yun Qing go on like this. (to be continued)
