061 sympathetic
On this trip to the first village in the world, Murong Xueyan has gained a lot. The first is to confirm the long-term cooperation with the world's first Zhuang, and secondly, to make friends with Yu Wenshuang. In the next few months, Murong Xueyan, with the help of Yu Wenshuang, added the production chain of rice wine and cooking wine to the winery, and opened a winery branch in Chaozhou, which is close to the first winery in the world. Of course, the price after that is that Murong Xueyan is busier than before. Most of the time, she basically runs on both sides of Chaozhou in the capital.
And Nangongyi...
The relationship with Nan Gongyi has always been in a seemingly empty stage. Living together like a normal couple, doing Zhou Gong's business when there is a "physiological need", and still maintaining the necessary etiquette in public, which is a tacit understanding between each other. When she calms down, Murong Xueyan often thinks of the four words "the years are quiet". Yes, she thinks that these four words are a portrayal of her life with Nangong Yimu. Quiet, good, there should be a lot of atmosphere. If there is anything else wrong, it is--
A set of modern words is **. I always feel that there seems to be something missing between the two people. He cherishes her because he understands what he can grasp and what he can't grasp; her acceptance of him is naturally catered to.
With such confusion, Murong Xueyan reached the end of the year in the first year of Daqi. This twelfth lunar month, there are two beautiful good news around her.
First, drunken sleepless, with her proposal and assistance, together brewed a new kind of wine. Because its taste is more sweet, refreshing and mellow than pear blossom spring, she named the wine "Sakura Sky Snow" and planned to break the wine into the palace and become the imperial wine in the palace, so it was secretly brewed.
Second, it was her good friend Du Lanruo who finally got what she wanted - Beitang Haoli opposed the public, set up Du Lanruo as the queen and moved to the Hehuan Hall.
Because she heard these two good news, Murong Xueyan smiled and was happy all day long. On the first day of the twelfth lunar month, she gave herself a day off, went to the market during the day, and went to Mingcui Square to watch songs and dances at night.
This time, she rarely heard an ancient version of the male and female chorus - naturally, this is what she suggested to Yan Wushuang early in the morning - but she has not been able to have a full stomach before. The song is "Introduced" by her. The lyrics are beautiful and the tune is beautiful, which makes her remember it for a long time:
Love is like a dream, broken white head
How many autumns do flowers bloom and fall
Thousands of years of waiting for a reunion through the cocoon
The pain of my life only wants you to understand for me
The beauty is alone and haggard, don't laugh at the peach blossom disaster
A cavity of spring water is only stranded for you
Sing wine and parting to remember the mandarin duck string
Exchange your life for your heart forever
The tide rises and falls, and the moon is full
The vicissitudes of the sea and the mulberry fields go to spring and return
The origin of fate and the fall of the reincarnation of the mortal world
Heaven and earth are drunk and sleepless...
"How's it going? Is it good?" Yan Wushuang sat down beside her, with a faint smile.
"It's good." Murong Xueyan smiled and said, "Sister Wushuang, you are more and more good at business."
"If you want to do business, how can I get to you? Your Muya Winery is now the first winery in Daqi." Yan Wushuang lowered her eyes thoughtfully, and then said, "However, there is still one step left..."
"It's still one step away." Murong Xueyan nodded knowingly.
If Sakura Kongxue is introduced into the palace and becomes a royal wine, then Muya Winery can be called the first winery in Northern Qi. Outside, it is in line with the first village in the world; inside, it is in line with the court.
Murong Xueyan was thinking hard about business matters, and another big event disrupted her plan.
There was a snowstorm in Chaozhou. She has been busy with business and doesn't know the military and state affairs. It was the sudden influx of disaster victims in Beijing that made her ask about the snow disaster from others. Moreover, because of the serious snow disaster, Nangong Yi invited himself to leave Beijing and go to the disaster area for disaster relief.
Murong Xueyan rented an uninhabited large quadrangle in the capital, opened a refugee shelter, and provided three meals a day and daily use. Then she decided to go to Chaozhou in person, hoping to do something meaningful for the disaster victims with her financial and material resources.
According to her father Murong Rui's description, Chaozhou was covered with snow, and it was extremely cold. The roads, fields and forests were all covered with ice and snow. The ice and snow accumulated several feet thick and lasted for a long time. It was difficult for pedestrians to travel, and countless people froze to death and starve to death. Murong Xueyan thought that the disaster area was trapped by ice and snow. What was urgently needed was grain and cotton-padded jackets. She spent money to buy hundreds of bags of rice and made cotton-padded jackets and quilts in various villages in the capital. Ten days later, she rushed to complete everything. Now she wanted to rush to the disaster area. She was eager, so she thought that the carriage was too slow. In addition, the road to the disaster area was blocked by ice and snow. It is still unknown whether the carriage can pass - fortunately, she learned to ride a horse in her spare time, which played a role in this extraordinary period.
When Murong Xueyan rushed outside the gate of Chaozhou, it happened that Nangongyi led Chaozhou assassins and other local officials to break the extremely thick hard ice with hammers, shovels and other things, but the human arm strength was limited, the effect was very small, and the project was carried out extremely slowly.
"What are you doing here?" Nangong Yi frowned and looked at Murong Xueyan, who came to control the horse. Disaster fighting and disaster relief, these are all men's business. What did this little woman come to stir up?
"Like you, you can't do it for half a month." Murong Xueyan ignored his face comparable to Black King Kong and smiled, "Why don't you try dynamite? Isn't it much faster to make a hole in the ice in the center of the road, put the dynamite down, and then use the power of the dynamite to blow up the surrounding ice?
"It seems to make sense..." Several minor officials have nodded frequently.
"Also, don't always use brute force in these small areas. Try another method, maybe it will be faster." Murong Xueyan said again.
Now even Nangong Yi was curious: "Try to tell me, what's the method?"
"The principle of leverage." Murong Xueyan explained, "We can make a pointed iron rod, use a boulder as the fulcrum in the middle deep into the hard ice, and press the iron rod down with the strength of several people, so that the force is much greater than using a shovel, a tzel or something."
"Where did you get this method?" Nangong Yi thought about it carefully and felt that what Murong Xueyan said was quite reasonable.
"From my mind!" Murong Xueyan blinked.
When the officials around saw that the two people were smiling and intimate, they asked tentatively, "Your Majesty Jing, she is..."
"She is my... friend..." After thinking about it, it's better to explain it this way. After all, it's not safe for a princess to come out.
Murong Xueyan stuck out her tongue at him, and the name of his "friend" was not surprising... This is the drawback of this era. Once a woman goes out to walk, she has to withstand pressure that ordinary people can't imagine. She has decided to use "Jianghu children" to define herself, what princess, what princess, what prime minister's daughter, go to hell!
She was still distracted, but Nangong Yi did not waste time. She ordered everyone to take a four- or five-meter-long wooden stake, personally cut the end of the wooden pile slightly thin with a portable sword, and ordered people to bring a boulder, put it about one meter away from the hard ice, and try it in the way prompted by Murong Xueyan--
As several people worked together to press down the wooden stakes, the original indestructible ice collapsed in an in anssant manner.
"Good way!" Everyone praised it.
Murong Xueyan turned her head carelessly and said to Nangong Yi, "Can you take me to see the victims?"
"Good." Nangong Yi took her to the city along a passage cut out not long ago. All the way, she saw that her whole body was shivering, her face was blue and blue, and her hands were full of frostbite, or old and weak women and children who were starving and dying. The tragic situation made Murong Xueyan unbearable to witness.
"Why didn't you see the man?"
"All the men have gone to help." Nangong Yi's eyebrows were coated with a compassionate look. "Before that, Chaozhou City ran out of food for five days, and the heavy snow blocked the access. Count of people froze to death and starved to death. The approaching Qingzhou was also seriously affected, and many refugees left their homes."
"It's no wonder I saw many refugees in the capital." Murong Xueyan suddenly realized, "I have set up a refugee shelter in Beijing, which is specially designed to take in those homeless refugees. Otherwise, they will definitely be driven out of the capital by Beijing officials."
Nangong Yi once again looked at this extraordinary woman with amazement. Looking around the world, all businessmen think about how to accumulate and make money. No one can think about the disaster victims as sincerely as she is.
"What is the problem that needs to be solved most now?" Murong Xueyan looked up and asked.
"It's food and clothing." Nangong Yi said, "The court has issued disaster relief money before, but..."
As he spoke, he looked around and said in a low voice, "When 5,000 taels of disaster relief silver was sent here, it became 2,000..."
Corruption?! Er, yes, this is a common product of feudal society. Where there is oil and water to get, there is corruption and bribery, which is the eternal truth.
"Have you checked the context of the matter?" Murong Xueyan said with concern, "Who did the matter?"
Nangong Yi attached his lips to her ear, and Fang whispered, "The county magistrate of Chaozhou is solemn, and this person is the most suspected."
"Is it the one who wears a dark green official uniform and his boots are broken?" Murong Xue's face was suspicious. If Nangong Yi doesn't tell her, she really thinks that Yan is a clean official. First of all, let's look at his appearance. He is in his forties, handsome, handsome, thin, and really worthy of his name. Look at his clothes, semi-old official uniforms, and boots that he has been worn for many years. Obviously, it was worn out in many places. As soon as she came, she noticed this person just now, which is why the person's dress is really different. After Nangong Yi's explanation, she understood that this person's dress was not really poor, but to show off - dressed in rags to prove that she was a good and honest official.
"Yes, I visited his house last night and found that there was a secret road in his house, in which a large number of gold, silver and jewelry were hidden." Nangong Yi added, "It's such a poor and clean official who said that he would hold a banquet in the house tonight."
"Did you frighten the snake last night?" Murong Xueyan said, "In my opinion, if he invites you to dinner tonight, there may be some conspiracy."
"I disturbed him last night, but I was blindfolded and didn't let him see him." Nangong Yi said, "Think about it, he should be suspicious."
"Then it can be said that it is a 'Hongmen banquet' tonight."
"This is the Chaozhou Pavilion. I'm staying here for the time being. After sunset, you can come here to meet me." Nangong Yi pointed to a shop on the roadside and said.
Murong Xueyan was silent and thought about it. Fang found that they all called each other "you" and "I" in the conversation just now, and their tone was calm. For the first time, they really talked about a topic.
