Chapter 277: Purchasing Food
Xiao Yuehan thought for a moment and said to Zi Sangyu, "I want to stock up on food."
Zi Sangyu looked at her with a complicated look and asked in confusion: "Stockpiling food?
Why do we need to stockpile food? We can never finish eating all the food. "
At this hour, it was late at night and the moon had already climbed up into the sky.
The bright moonlight came in through the gap in the tent and reflected on Xiao Yuehan's face, making her face look very soft.
She squinted her eyes and said, "As the saying goes, after two years of good harvests, there will be a disaster. Including this year, we have had three years of good harvests.
I am afraid there will be a disaster next year, so I want to make some necessary preparations early.
Some time ago, I saw some grain merchants purchasing grain in the market and grain stores.
They should be the weather vane of the direction of the grain market.
If this is true, and if everyone does this, all the food in the market will soon be sold out.
If we don't prepare, we will be in trouble when the disaster comes.
If we set up a porridge stall to distribute porridge, we won’t have enough food.
So, we should make some preparations early.”
Zi Sangyu thought for a moment and said, "What if this year is another bumper year? Wouldn't the grain we purchased be wasted on us?"
“No, think about it, if we act faster, we can still buy it at the market price.
If this year is another bumper year, we will sell at the purchase price and there should be no problem.
But if we don't do this now, what if a disaster strikes?
As the King of the South, if you don't have food to give out, how will the people look at you?
So, I want to prepare early.
Those grain traders are quite sensitive to this market and they have started to take action now.
If we just watch, we will have no choice but to buy food from them at a high price in the future.
It’s good that you can buy it, but I’m afraid that in a year of great disaster, you may not be able to buy food even if you have money.
By then, some will starve to death, and some will die of bloating.
We will be helpless and the people will suffer.”
Zi Sangyu turned over, looked up at her, and said in a doting tone: "Okay, whatever you want to do, I support you.
If we are going to do this, let's make it bigger. If there is no disaster, that would be better. It's better to prevent it before it happens. I support it."
As he said this, he held Xiao Yuehan's hand.
Xiao Yuehan thought of modern granaries, and asked, "How do government granaries store grain? How many years can they usually store grain?"
Zi Sangyu thought for a moment and replied, "Generally, they are stored in warehouses, and there are vents in the warehouses to prevent the stored grain from getting moldy.
In some places, if the weather is good, the grain will be harvested immediately before being stored.
Then dry it on the spot and put it into the warehouse after cooling.
In addition, the wood inside and outside the granary must be coated with mortar to prevent fire and insect damage.
In this way, it can basically be stored for three to five years.”
"That's it."
Xiao Yuehan rolled over on the soft carpet, smiled faintly, and said, "I'm not afraid anymore, so just take it.
Of course it would be great if it was another bumper year.
We just store the food; it will always be useful and won't be wasted.
Also, don’t sell the millet that the prince’s farm harvested this year. We’ll keep it.”
"Okay, listen to my wife. I'll arrange it tomorrow."
Zi Sangyu hugged him and said sleepily, "It's late, let's go to bed, okay?
Just sleep here and don’t go back to the room.
It’s been a long time since we’ve been romantic here, so we’re going to be romantic here today.”
He put his lips close to Xiao Yuehan's fragrant swan neck and murmured.
Xiao Yuehan looked at the handsome face with clear contours up close.
Scrape his tall, straight nose with your index finger.
He smiled and said, "You don't have to arrange it. This matter should be done by me.
Don’t you have so many things to do in the court?
Just go about your business and don't worry about me.
I can take care of it. Can the harvested grain be stored in the granary on your farm?"
Zi Sangyu's face was already buried in her neck, and he mumbled, "First, what is my farm?
This sentence is wrong. What's mine is yours. Remember, from now on, you can't separate you and me.
Second, the granary is very big and can hold as much as you collect.
Third, if we can’t let it go, we will rebuild it immediately.
So, everything is fine, just do whatever you want to do."
Xiao Yuehan touched his face with satisfaction and smiled warmly: "It's great to have you. No matter what the problem is, it's not a problem when it comes to you."
Then he became emotional: "Thank you for giving me so much understanding, support and help."
When Zi Sangyu heard Xiao Yuehan say this, he no longer wanted to sleep.
He turned over, looked at the top of the tent and said, "But, I still don't have any news about Sister Shuang'er.
I don't know where Brother Shu went that night."
Xiao Yuehan's eyes also darkened, and she asked, "Tell me, did Brother Wanshu leave with Princess Yuanshuang?
Why did the two of them disappear just like that?
Can the princess take care of the baby alone without Brother Wanshu by her side?"
Zi Sangyu said with worry in his eyes, “Brother Wanshu will definitely not be with Shuang’er, he won’t do this.
He would not hide it from me and elope with Shuang'er, because they had no reason to do so.
When everyone has accepted Shuang'er, eloping? Do you think this is necessary?
I think Shuang'er is no longer willing to marry into the Liang family.
She must be thinking about Brother Wanshu.
Because her current identity is different from before.
No matter what, she is a sinner, so she would not be willing to marry into the Liang family again and let others poke holes in the Liang family's spine.
In short, Shuang'er loves Brother Wanshu too deeply, and she does all this for Brother Wanshu's sake.
She was afraid that her identity would bring trouble to the Liang family.
So, she disappeared, and Brother Wanshu just went to find her.
However, he has not shown up yet, which must mean that he has not found Shuang'er and her son yet.
This makes me even more worried about Shuang'er.
But I didn't dare tell my aunt all this, otherwise she would collapse.
Now she still felt a little comforted, thinking that Shuang'er and her son were with Brother Wanshu.
With a man by Shuang'er's side, everyone would feel better, but things were not what everyone thought. "
Xiao Yuehan's eyes were filled with tears as she said, "It's just hard for Princess Minyang.
I heard that the princess has lost her appetite and sleep since Princess Shuang'er disappeared.
I can't muster the energy to do anything.
He also took his servants to various streets and alleys, villages and towns every day to inquire about the princess's news.
