I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

Chapter 425 Is it under the control of the household department, or is it under the control of the official?
After making up his mind, Cao Shunhe didn't hesitate at all, only saw him call his subordinates, and ordered in a deep voice.

"Now go and count how much grain is still available for mobilization in the granary!"

"Yes, Lord Governor!"

After listening to Cao Shunhe's instructions, the subordinates did not hesitate, and quickly took the order and left.

Not long after, the subordinates who had been sent earlier completed the statistics of the grain available for mobilization in Jiangxi, and reported the truth to Cao Shunhe.

After Cao Shunhe learned the exact number from his subordinates, he propped his chin up with one hand and fell into deep thought.

"Is there only [-] shi of grain available for mobilization in the province?"

"Forget it, no matter what, when this batch of grain arrives, it should be able to alleviate Zhejiang's current urgent need."

"As long as this batch of grain can last until the local mulberry seedlings in Zhejiang mature, all problems will be solved by then!"

Thinking of this, Cao Shunhe turned his attention to the previous subordinate, and immediately ordered.

"Pass down the order of this officer to ship all the grain that is currently available for mobilization, and then immediately transport it to Zhejiang!"

After the subordinate listened to Cao Shunhe's order, hesitation appeared on his face, and he boldly advised Cao Shunhe.

"Governor...Governor, didn't the Ministry of Households issue a corresponding notice earlier to prevent you from mobilizing food without authorization? Now you..."

Before the subordinate finished speaking, he was interrupted coldly by Cao Shunhe: "Where is there so much nonsense, are you under the control of the household department, or are you under the control of the official?"

Seeing that Cao Shunhe's expression became serious and his tone was full of impatience, the subordinate quickly patted his chest and assured him: "Your Excellency, you are the immediate superior of the subordinate, how can the subordinate disobey you?" order?"

"As long as you give me an order, even if you go up the mountain of swords or down into the sea of ​​fire, the officials will never frown!"

Hearing this, Cao Shunhe did not make any comment, but continued to add.

"Don't worry, if something happens, I will take care of it alone, you just let go and do it!"

"Obey, my lord governor!"

After receiving Cao Shunhe's promise, the subordinate immediately felt relieved, and immediately responded in a deep voice.

After the subordinate left, only Cao Shunhe was left in the room. After that, he spread out a pen and paper and wrote a reply to Hu Zongxian.

"Brother Ruzhen, I have received the letter you sent earlier. At present, the amount of food available for mobilization in Jiangxi is [-] shi."

"I have already sent people to ship the grain immediately. If there is no accident, the grain will be transported to Zhejiang in batches in about three days. I hope Brother Ruzhen will not worry!"

When the last word fell, Cao Shunhe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then put the brush in his hand back to its original position. After the ink on the paper was completely dry, Cao Shunhe called his cronies and gave instructions.

"This letter must be handed over to Hu Zongxian with your own hands, and no one else can pass it in between. Do you understand?"

"Yes, Lord Governor, I will definitely deliver the letter!"

The confidant carefully put away the envelope, and then made a promise to Cao Shunhe.

"Well, be careful on the road!"

Cao Shunhe looked at the back of this confidant who was about to leave, and couldn't help but remind him.

"My little one, thank you, Lord Governor, for your concern!"

The confidant suddenly stopped, turned around, and said respectfully.

Soon, Cao Shunhe's order to adjust the grain was passed on through officials at all levels.

Those officials in charge of grain began to calculate where the grain should be allocated, and how many ships would be needed to load the [-] shi of grain, and began to plan the route of grain transportation.

Naturally, such a big movement could not be concealed from the eyeliner that Xu Jie had set up in Jiangxi to be on the safe side.

"You tell this news to Mr. Xu Ge and the others immediately, without any delay!"

"In addition, tell them that everything is going according to the previous plan, and this batch of grain must not be transported to Zhejiang smoothly!"

"Yes, my lord!"

……

After traveling day and night, the confidant who was in charge of delivering the letter finally arrived in Zhejiang one day later.

At this moment, in the study of the Governor's Mansion.

Ever since Hu Zongxian sent someone to send the letter, he has been in a state of worry from time to time. No one understands the risks involved better than him.

If the court finds it out, it will be a trivial matter to lose the official position, and the most fearful thing is to be labeled as forming a party for personal gain!
Once this big hat is taken off, not only will Cao Shunhe's official career be completely ruined, but even he himself will be severely punished.

"Oh, I hope that when the time comes, the teacher will come forward to save Cao Shunhe after seeing the letter I wrote to him!"

Just as Hu Zongxian was still thinking about this matter and possible countermeasures, a knock on the door came from outside, bringing him back to reality.

Seeing that Hu Zongxian frowned slightly, he immediately ordered.

"Come in!"

As soon as the words fell, a guard from the Governor's Mansion walked in, with a respectful expression on his face, and immediately reported the report.

"Governor, according to your previous instructions, at this moment, the Chief Minister and the others have all arrived at the Governor's Mansion one after another, and are waiting in the meeting hall right now!"

Hearing this, Hu Zongxian nodded slightly, got up from the seat immediately, and said.

"Well, I'll be there right away!"

After that, I saw Hu Zongxian walking towards the meeting hall of the Governor's Mansion with steady steps.

"Hey, what can we do now, the food in the warehouse is getting less and less, and it can't last long!"

In the meeting hall, after looking around, Zheng Michang looked around, then looked away, his face full of helplessness.

"I can't help it, let's wait a little longer. Besides, before this, the Governor-General has already written a letter to Jiangxi Governor Cao Shunhe himself. We just need to wait for the result with peace of mind!"

He Maocai who was on the side heard this, and immediately comforted him.

At this moment, I saw Hu Zongxian stepping into the meeting hall. Seeing this, everyone got up from their seats and saluted respectfully: "I have seen the governor!"

Seeing this situation, Hu Zongxian waved his hands quite casually, and ordered: "Sit, everyone sit!"

After everyone sat back to their seats, Hu Zongxian turned his gaze to Zheng Michang who was aside, and asked.

"What's the current situation, how long can the food in the warehouse last?"

As soon as Hu Zongxian's words fell, Zheng Michang responded without thinking: "My lord governor, since the last time the government distributed relief food, the current situation is pretty stable!"

When Zheng Michang was talking about this, he suddenly changed the subject, and immediately said cautiously: "It's just that the grain left in the warehouse can last up to [-] days at most. If there is still no grain shipped after [-] days If we arrive..."

Zheng Michang didn't continue to speak, but everyone present understood what Zheng Michang wanted to express.

If after [-] days, there is still no grain delivered to Zhejiang, then the conversion of rice to mulberry will officially fail.

At that time, everyone will have to bear the blame and will end up in a tragic end!

Hu Zongxian saw that the mood of the crowd was a little low, and after a moment of silence, he immediately spoke out to comfort him.

"Don't worry, before this, I have already written a letter of appeal to Jiangxi governor Cao Shunhe, and I should be able to receive a reply by tomorrow at the latest!"
