Chapter 1218 The Gentlemen Sneered

Royal study.

Emperor Yuan Shao sat cross-legged, and when he saw his eldest son Yuan Tan coming, he sat upright.

"Father, I don't know why you called me here." Yuan Tan said calmly.

Yuan Shao looked solemn, he called Yuan Tan to this private place just to see him begging for mercy.

After all, the matter of disaster relief is a big black pot. His eldest son wants to save face, he thinks he is holding on in front of all officials.

My son, please stop holding on and beg for mercy. You beg father, you beg father.

Then dad slapped you in the face, dad was happy, and wanted you to continue to take the blame.

Seeing in Yuan Shao, his eldest son is so clever, he will definitely seize the opportunity to beg for mercy. Maybe some fresh goods were prepared for him as sugar-coated shells. At that time, he sugar-coated them and ate them, and the shells returned.

"Son, don't you have anything to say to Father?"

"No."

Yuan Shao: "...." Are you still holding on?

The guide said: "Son, tens of millions of people have been affected by the disaster this time, and it has reached the most critical moment."

Yuan Tan said: "This is all trivial. Such a catastrophe is just a great opportunity to enhance my Yuan family's divine power."

System: "Ding, the host calmly pretends to be aggressive, and the value of acting aggressive is increased by 5."

Yuan Shao's eyes widened, he couldn't believe what he heard. Such a big disaster is still a great opportunity to enhance the power of the gods, son, you are not stupid, are you? This is your chance to swell your face, right?

Yuan Tan waved his hand, "Father, if there is anything else, if not, don't delay me to save the world." After speaking, he turned and left.

"Ding, the host pretends to be invisible, and the pretense value is increased by 6."

Yuan Tan was very happy, he was really suitable for acting. It's the right time for the system to be upgraded. In the future, in this world, in this universe, no one can stop him from pretending to be aggressive.

Yuan Shao watched the eldest son leave, and after a moment of stupefaction, he grabbed his hair and pulled it out several times. I wonder if it's okay for him to pretend like this? Who gave him the confidence to pretend like this?

Angry, he twisted his nose and pointed to the empty outside, "Okay, okay, I'll see how you pretend to be so aggressive."

Yuan Tan brought the term pretentiousness to the Three Kingdoms, and it is still a compliment.

The eunuch Dequan and his subordinates were ashamed, thinking that the eldest son is too awesome.

vertical sun.

Shence Mansion.

on the street.

There is a lot of traffic.

Hundreds of gentry families and thousands of people came. The servants are like a forest, and the canopy is like a cloud, all of them are big figures with heads and faces.

Bustling and bustling, entering the Shence Mansion, the remaining servants crowded a street.

The sunny Martial Arts Field of Shence Mansion has been filled with gentry, chattering non-stop.

"Everyone, absolutely not a single grain of grain can be lent to the King of Qin."

"Let's see what he uses for disaster relief this time."

The gentry is the last batch of 'slave masters' class in ancient Middle-earth. It is even more ruthless than the landlord class of later generations, almost exactly the same as the slave owners of the slave system.

Yuan Tan is sympathetic to the people, and severely cracks down on the gentry who commit crimes and exploit the people. The gentry waits for him to perish every day.

Military advisers like Zhuge Liang appeared and greeted the nobles from all walks of life, but they were either ridiculed or stared at.

In this case, Yuan Tan arrived.

"King Qin is a thousand years old."

All the gentry were not happy, and wanted to kneel down to salute. At the same time, they did not let Yuan Tan seize the opportunity to get mad.

We all know that once King Qin got mad, the emperor couldn't stand it.

"Get up." Yuan Tan waved his hand.

After serving the tea, the gentry sat upright, looking at their noses and mouths, as if sitting in meditation, and no one spoke.

Yuan Tan knew that these gentry were Zhou Papier, Huang Shiren, 99 out of 100 were rich and unkind, and it was impossible to ask them to do charity.

He called the gentry over today to discuss business, so he said, "Everyone, the famine in Henan is affecting tens of millions of people. In one month's time, there will be an unprecedented famine."

"Of course the eldest son has a way to help the disaster." Yang Huai said solemnly. Anyone can hear the sarcasm inside.

Zhuge Liang whispered,

"My lord, this is the younger brother of Taiwei Yang Biao, the representative of the Yang family."

Yuan Tan also said solemnly: "Of course this king has a way to help the disaster."

System: "Ding, the host forcefully pretended to be coquettish, but the pretense failed, and there is no pretense value."

Yuan Tan was ashamed, and failed to pretend to be coercive.

Sure enough, the gentry all looked at him with disdain, and thought to themselves, you can brag about it, if you want to say one million disaster victims, we will admit it, whoever made you rich can rival the country, but this is ten million people.

Yuan Tan said: "Everyone, let's talk about a business. You lend me the grain, and in the coming year, I will pay you 5% interest and return it to you."

When the gentry heard the words, they buzzed and started discussing.

"Five points, it's really a lot, and it's a business that can make a profit without accompanying it."

"Are you showing off? Are you still making a steady profit? You won't pay the interest, but you still have to pay it back, right?"

The previous man was taken aback when he heard the words, and thought he was right, how could he still afford it, next year it is not a matter of changing, he might have to send troops to suppress the peasant uprising. At that time, there will be another white scarf thief, red scarf thief or something, and the imperial army will be out of rations.

Qin Dynasty II died, and the founding emperor of Datang directly burped.

"Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to borrow, it's because there is no food left at home."

"Yes, yes, look, my lord, I have lost more than 50 catties, and I can't get enough to eat every day." A big fat gentleman said.

Yuan Tan frowned, "My lord sees that you are over two hundred catties, quite fat."

"This... Actually, I weighed more than four hundred catties before, and everyone called me Fat Monkey Boy." The big fat man said awkwardly.

"My family has no food left."

"My warehouse is starving to death of mice."

"Your Majesty, it's not that you don't want to help, it's that you can't protect yourself."

The gentry are chattering, you don't say a word, anyway, it's just three words, no food.

Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong looked at each other, and Xun You and Xun Yu sighed. They had predicted this situation before, and it was impossible for the gentry to come out to relieve the disaster, even if the court gave interest.

Nima!

Yuan Tan said he didn't say a word, but he had already scolded his mother behind his back. The faces of these gentry were so disgusting.

Xun Yu came out. He is a well-known man in the world with high morals. He said, "Everyone, my lord has a crop called potatoes. The yield per mu is at least 3,000 catties. I will definitely be able to repay you for the grain I borrowed from you."

"What the hell?"

"what's going on?"

"Three thousand catties?"

The gentry all exclaimed in disdain.

Yang Huai stood up and said, "Master Xun, when did you become so shameless, are you insulting our IQ? Return the potatoes, you really have a talent for writing, and you have a good name."

It seemed that he was despising Xun Yu, but in fact, he pointed the finger at Yuan Tan.

Xun Yu told the truth, but people didn't believe it even more, "It's really three thousand catties, I guarantee it with my life and wealth."

The gentry sneered, your wealth and life are worthless when the famine comes. This time the Eldest Young Master came out to pretend to be a force, and he took care of everything. Don't you see that this is something that can be pretended? At that time, once the emperor shows his power, there is no need for the emperor to take action, and the 10 million disaster victims will eat up your Shence Mansion.

Yang Huai pursed his lips, stroked his white beard, wrinkled his face, and said disdainfully, "My lord, I'm sorry, I'm still cooking soup at home, so I'm leaving."

As soon as he left, the other gentry also left.

Soon there was not one left.

"Your Majesty, what should I do?" Jia Xu turned around anxiously.

Other military divisions are also ants on the hot pot.

They knew that potatoes were produced per mu, but the gentry didn't believe it, just like they did back then.

If the food cannot be raised, the victims will not be able to survive until the potatoes are harvested.

In this way, the magic weapon like potatoes is useless, and it is the same as having no ending.

Yuan Tan was silent, pondering in his heart.

Although the system has been upgraded and a more powerful mall has been opened, the original department store is still there, and gold can be exchanged for daily necessities, saving precious pretense points.

Yuan Tan quickly thought of a way.
