At the beginning, I became a county magistrate with greed of 500 million. The empress asked me to be

For Daixian Snowflake Salt.

Xia Yun had enough confidence: "It's that old woman, the Empress, who was eaten."

“I can’t stop.”

"Ah."

"Bold."

The empress's eyes narrowed slightly, and the young female official beside her shouted in fear.

This left Xia Yun a little confused.

"The empress's prestige is quite high."

Didn't care either.

As long as you make money, the rest is not important.

I really ate this salt.

It's hard to swallow anything else.

this point.

Xia Yun himself understood this feeling very well, it was like eating bran and vegetables.

Poor people may be able to endure it.

But how could he tolerate these two people who were obviously from aristocratic families?

Addicted.

You also have to give him money obediently.

If they weren't afraid of attracting too much attention, they would have wanted to bring the refined salt to Kyoto to sell it.

One thousand taels.

That's two thousand taels.

These powerful and wealthy businessmen all flocked to it.

"I don't know, Master Xia, whether you can do all kinds of business."

The Queen of Daliang suppressed her complicated emotions and looked at Xia Yun with cold eyes.

as if.

It was as if he was going to peel off the whole Xia Yun.

"nature."

Xia Yun nodded.

these past three years.

With his full support and development, Dai County has already achieved everything.

Business.

Across all industries.

Whatever you want to resell, you can find it in Dai County.

They are all top-notch and cannot be bought anywhere else.

"Then, I wonder if Lord Xia is in the grain business."

The Queen of Daliang resisted the urge to slap Xia Yun to death.

Said lightly.

"Food?"

Xia Yun touched his chin and frowned.

"Didn't you just brag that you were in charge of all the business?"

The young female official at the side seemed somewhat indignant, and obviously had not forgotten what had just happened.

Xia Yun looked arrogant.

"Who says this county can't do it?"

Xia Yun rolled his eyes at her and asked her why she was unwilling to do the grain business.

Because it’s hard to raise the price.

Only through massive grain trade can we earn considerable profits.

Thankless.

"If Master Xia can't do it, I'll ask someone else."

The Queen of Daliang could no longer suppress her anger.

If it weren’t for the disaster victims in several provinces, they would be starving and on the verge of death.

How could she ask Xia Yun?

Ask.

He had to hang Xia Yun up first and whip him hard.

Asking slowly.

"It's not that we can't make it. If you need a small amount, you can just purchase some in Dai County."

Xia Yun was not interested in traveling around just for a few thousand taels of profit.

Can bring them here.

He was sure that the two of them would give him money frequently in the future.

"How many you have, I can buy them all, if the price is not too high."

The expression of the Queen of Daliang flickered and she looked at Xia Yun deeply.

did not expect.

This bastard can really come up with food, and it looks like he has quite a lot.

Severe drought in Jiangnan.

Food prices have been rising sharply, increasing by three or four times.

Many people had to exchange their children for food because of the shortage of food and grass.

This made the Empress of Daliang more murderous towards the Jiangnan gentry than ever before.

intend.

After dealing with Xia Yun, I will settle the account with them.

"Come with me."

Seeing that the two were insisting, Xia Yun thought that they would at least be a long-term ATM in the future.

Just take two people with you.

We rushed all the way to the grain station in Dai County, in front of several tall granaries.

"What's this."

The young female official looked at the round object handed to her by the servant and was a little at a loss.

The empress on the side, on the other hand, did not shy away from it at all.

He followed Xia Yun's example and broke the round object open and took a bite.

"Miss, how can this be possible?"

The young female official standing by was so anxious that she almost couldn't help but rush forward to snatch it away.

Thinking of your majesty's worth a million dollars.

Eating this food of unknown origin casually scared me to death in an instant.

"Why are you so nervous? This is called potato. I found it on the grassland. It has a very high yield after planting, but it is difficult to store."

Coincidentally.

In the first year of Xia Yun's tenure, he sent troops to attack Caogu outside the Great Wall.

Lost my way and walked into a valley.

Wild potatoes were found, and with them tobacco leaves.

Bring it back and cultivate it.

After that, Dai County never lacked food.

"Ah."

The empress relaxed a lot, but was soon shocked by the taste of the potatoes.

It tastes sandy.

It has an unimaginable fragrance.

"Ugh."

The young female official next to her also took a bite, and her brows instantly frowned.

"These warehouses are full of well-stored potatoes. If you want to buy, you can only buy the whole warehouse, and you have to consume them quickly."

“The price could be cheaper.”

Xia Yun briefly told the two of them some precautions on how to store potatoes.

There is also discoloration.

germination.

There are no taboos for eating.

This is also the reason why he is reluctant to sell grain once the granary is opened.

Just means.

The potatoes in this warehouse must be consumed quickly.

otherwise.

Just watch it mold and rot.

"I want all the food in these warehouses."

The empress waved her hand.

Quite true.

Xia Yun was a little surprised to buy so much food that was difficult to store.

What is this girl going to do?

but.

Didn't ask any more questions.

After all, it's all money, so why does she do anything with it?

The original purpose of storing so many potatoes was simply to avoid famine.

Store up to a certain limit.

They will all be taken out for waste recycling.

Now that someone has bought it, why not exchange it for hard cash?

...

Two days in a row.

Horse-drawn carts came in and out of the granary, loaded with potatoes.

This scene.

The empress was also shocked.

I didn't expect that such an inconspicuous granary could hold so much grain.

No wonder.

The people of Dai County have no worries about food and drink.

The remaining food can make Xia Yun, that bastard, rich.

So much food.

Selling it to the Jiangnan region is enough to influence the price of grain in the region.

It caused a huge impact.

"Your Majesty, we don't have to worry about drought now. With these potatoes, the people can have enough food to eat and don't have to buy food from the gentry."

The young female official was rather delighted, as she, who came from a poor family, knew about these foods.

What does it mean to the people.

"A wealthy businessman from Jiangnan."

The empress was aroused with murderous intent, compared to Xia Yun.

These people don't have flintlock rifles or steel monsters in their hands.

If she could have been afraid before, now she has these foods.

It can stabilize the people.

Those aristocratic families in the south of the Yangtze River became fish on the sticky board.

I can only let her slaughter me.

"We have to dig out all the secrets in Xia Yun's hands."

Thinking of the even more mysterious Xia Yun, the empress could never feel at ease.

once.

A young scholar who is full of ambition and dedicated to serving the country and the people.

Now he has degenerated into a corrupt official who is greedy for money and lustful.

I don’t know what I have experienced, and those mysterious creations.

It doesn't look like an ordinary thing at all.

If I can’t control it in her hands, I’m afraid I won’t even dare to close my eyes when I sleep.

or.

Who knows, Xia Yun might show up at her bedside one day.
