Chapter 164 Borrowing Food
"Oh my God! This family is a landlord! How can a peasant family want to sell their daughter for money to marry a concubine?"
"That's right, I also have three girls in my family, but I never had such thoughts."
"You're going to get stabbed in the back!"
"It's really an antique that crawled out of the ground!"
??"..."
??The audience was noisy and shocked by what happened in San Ya's home.
??The people in the northwest are tough and the local women have tough personalities. When the Tartars invaded, they still had to pick up hoes and hatchets to fight the enemy. When the incident in Heitu Village was exposed, it almost shocked everyone.
??The women who were originally exiled to Yaocheng only dared to go out after the merger. When they heard what Sanya said, they were also shocked.
??They had only heard of families selling their daughters in exchange for dowry for their sons, but this was the first time they heard of selling their daughters to their fathers as concubines. It was simply unheard of and unseen.
??Pan Yingying patted San Ya’s shoulder and glanced at the red-faced and thick-necked village chief of Heitu Village.
?The next time the Tartars invaded Ningyuan, Pan Yingying asked for help from Marquis Wu'an early on, thus avoiding the crisis of the city being breached.
??When you become a soldier, you will no longer be afraid of the stick in your grandmother's hand, and you will not be able to protect your sisters.
??Caohua looked at Baya with envy and stroked the silver medal hanging on her chest heavily.
The time he borrowed grain, he probably had a real way to do it. Thinking that Ningyuan had just finished the autumn harvest and should have some surplus grain, Marquis Wu'an shamelessly asked for it.
??Once he found out that the money was collected on someone else's behalf or embezzled, he would complain to the teachers or martial arts masters in each village, but no one would come forward to solve the problem.
The Tartars' invasion last year did not bring any harm. They had been causing trouble on the border for nearly half a year. The Wu'an army had silver and food, and life was difficult, so they naturally had the energy to consider the merger of Yaocheng and Ningyuan.
"Good girl, I have an idea. Let me know if it's feasible."
??She also took that situation into consideration when arranging for the Taoyuan Army to send the prize money and prizes back to the winning athletes’ homes.
??Marquis Wu'an Huo Changjin is the elder brother of the late emperor's former general Huo Shuang. Before the Battle of Tongguan, I was dispatched by Emperor Yuwen from Chengyang Pass in Linxia State in the south to Kaiyang in the northwest.
At this time, Jiang Qinghe was talking to Jiang Zhuzhi and Yu Chaosheng outside the yard about the latest news he had received.
??Chen Qingzhi did not handle the matter of the Baitu Village chief directly, but handed it over to Xiao Shan.
??I came to Yaocheng to be the mayor, one to avoid disaster, and seven to live a carefree life. Now that no one is loyal to me, how can I dare to just do my job as a monk?
?? "As for what he wants, he has to negotiate with her himself." Chen Qianzhi smiled. There is not much you can suggest. It still depends on the girl herself what to do.
??Coming out of Chaoxin Garden, Jiang Zhuzhi bowed to Jiang Qinghe and said, "Shangguan, I wish you success in your mission."
?? Chen Qingzhi turned to look at Jiang Qinghe, "I'd like to trouble Boss Chen and your master to go there, and also take your Taoyuan Army soldiers to broaden their horizons."
Pan Yingying smacked her lips and asked tentatively, "The people transporting the grain..."
It turned out that since the end of the year after next, the food and military pay that the court should have given to Marquis Wu'an had never been seen again. Jiang Qinghe guessed that it was Yuan Xingrong's doing.
??…
??Of course, that was before.
??Now that Marquis Wu'an is borrowing grain from Pan Yingying, he probably knows that Ningyuan City has been merged.
??You also want to join the army, but you are still too old.
??Cheng Hai and I are both acquaintances of Marquis Wu’an. If we don’t act as lobbyists, we will definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Jiang Qinghe thought for a moment and knew what Chen Qingzhi meant by this. He smiled and stood up and bowed, "Your Majesty, I obey your command."
Jiang Zhuzhi showed an expression of approval, "The general really embarrassed me. I doubt that the general will be reinstated in the future."
??Chen Qingzhi smiled and said, Marquis Wu'an does not have 20 soldiers at his disposal. If that 20 soldiers were in your hands, you would definitely be less confident in doing things.
After Jiang Qinghe and Jiang Zhuzhi left, Yu Chaosheng went over and took Chen Qingzhi's hand, and walked towards the bedroom together, "How much food should we give?"
??There are more girls than boys outside the village, and many baby boys are drowned as soon as they are born. The village chief is even more adorable. He is secretly selling the men in the village to the Tartars!
??…
Pan Yingying took the handwritten letter from Marquis Wu'an and hurried to Chaoxin Garden.
"What do you mean by borrow? We are all from the same Xiaoyu family, so we should help each other. Besides, Marquis Wu'an is still your great-uncle." Chen Qingzhi said nervously, "Just think of it as a respectful act by the elders."
"Should we lend this grain?" Jiang Qinghe stroked his chin. "Actually, I am in favor of borrowing it, but I still need to consider carefully in whose name to borrow it and how to borrow it."
We are all gnawing on the bark, so we don't care whether it is a merger or not.
??But the construction of the city wall was such a small event, and there was no sports event that made the whole city feel excited. Wu Anhou should have known about it, right? Could it be that nothing happened?
??Xiao Shan was so angry that he sentenced the village chief and his family to beheading that day. The rest of me and those outside the village who had not colluded with him were also punished to build a new district.
??Just now I was only thinking about conquering Wuan Army, but now I am calculating, how much food will my mother need? And I have to keep her alive all the time!
??The two looked at each other, and everything was clear in his words.
??On the night before the sports meet, Jiang Zhuzhi received a letter asking for food.
Jiang Qinghe laughed, "Thank you for your kind words."
??From a broad perspective, what the village chief did was not illegal, but Xiao Shan felt that he could save face, so he personally asked his confidant to investigate.
??Chen Qingzhi calculated in his mind and suddenly felt that he had no breath.
Have you seen Cheng Hai's eyes and nose? I believe that if I didn't handle the matter badly, Cheng Hai could rush out of the house and assassinate me one night!
??The person who borrowed the grain was the Marquis of Wu'an, who was stationed eight hundred miles away.
??The prize money and awards will only belong to the winning athletes themselves, and no one else can collect them and embezzle them.
Pan Yingying came on her own initiative and brought with her a handwritten letter from Marquis Wu'an, which happened to match the information that Jiang Zhuzhi had told her.
Liao Zuo acted very slowly, and in a short while he had thoroughly investigated the affairs of Baitu Village.
?? Baya's eyes lit up, and you swallowed your saliva, "Madam, City Lord, you, I, I, I want to join the army."
Pan Yingying lowered her voice, "Recently, there are factories in the main city that are recruiting people. You can come out to work, or you can join the army. Our Taoyuan Women's Army has been recruiting soldiers. If your family won't let you go, you can use the bonus to negotiate with them."
??…
??…
Jiang Qinghe saluted me back, "What general, what superior? You are just a commoner now, you should salute the district chief."
"Bad, the small door of Taoyuan Men's Army is always open to him." Chen Qingzhi smiled gently, and when he looked at the head of Baitu Village, there was a hint of smile in his eyes.
