The goddess medical concubine charms the world

Chapter 264 Food Unresolved

Three days later, the queen returned to the capital with her wives, young ladies and young men.

The capital was very lively at this time. Many common people lined the streets to welcome the returning queen. Now the common people knew that the queen took the officials and their families from the entire capital to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings.

They felt that the end of the cold winter and the return of spring to the earth must be the result of the Queen's blessing.

Therefore, they knelt down devoutly and saluted the Queen as she passed by.

The queen also happily took Mu Ziqing back to the palace.

Gu Youyou also followed the old lady back to Gu's house. The day I returned to the Gu family. Qi Feiran hurriedly came to Gu's house and handed over the greeting card.

The old lady originally had something to ask Gu Youyou, but looking at the greeting card in Gu Youyou's hand, she knew that Gu Youyou was still busy, so she told Gu Youyou to take a rest and went back to Changshengzhai.

Qi Feiran was led into the courtyard by Xiang Ming. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Qi Feiran started wailing:

"Ancestor, eldest sister, there is no food! When will you have food here?"

Gu Youyou raised her eyebrows:
  "Why, the food supply hasn't been solved yet? Now that the weather is getting warmer, it stands to reason that the crops should be planted!"

Qi Feiran looked at Gu Youyou with a constipated expression:
  "That's the truth, but it takes half a year for new grain to mature. Two crops a year is pretty good, and it's not yet the planting season. It's a bit difficult for our little grain to last half a year!"

Gu Youyou touched her chin:

"Well, I understand. I'll give you the food in three days. However, don't you think it's strange that the food is in such short supply? Does Mu Jin'an have any clues about going to investigate the food?"

When Qi Feiran heard Gu Youyou ask about this matter, he immediately took out a letter:
  "Jin'an sent me a letter a few days ago, please read it!"

Gu Youyou opened the letter and read it. The general content was that all the food in Qingshui County had disappeared overnight.

After investigation, Mu Jin'an also found out that someone deliberately united all the grain merchants two years ago to collect all the grain. Some of it was shipped to the south, and the other part was kept locally to deliberately raise prices.

Also because of the huge profits made by grain merchants in Qingshui County. The grain dealers in other counties were jealous. They wanted to raise prices but were afraid, but they were jealous if prices were not raised. Later, they came to Qingshui County to cooperate with them.

After selling half of the food, they joined forces with surrounding counties to raise prices on the grounds of lack of food. Then the food in surrounding counties also disappeared.

Now Mu Jin'an has captured all those grain merchants who maliciously increased prices. I also killed a few of the local ones who were shouting loudly.

This calmed down the local grain premium.

But now there is really no food in the local area. Fortunately, Qi Feiran's food has arrived and saved the local people.

And those refugees who wanted to go to Beijing have already begun to return to their hometowns with the help of the imperial court.

Mu Jin'an still wanted to investigate this matter clearly, so he had to go south for a while. He reminded Qi Feiran to send food to the south.

Gu Youyou put down the letter:

"So, you don't have any food to transport south now?"

Qi Feiran nodded:
  "But the imperial court has already asked them to open a warehouse to release grain, so the pressure on my side is not that great! But the emperor means that our Qi family will be responsible for supplying grain to Qingshui County in the future!"

Although it was a good thing that Mu Yibai gave him such a big market, he also had to have so much goods.

Gu Youyou thought for a while and said:
  "I will deliver all the food in three days. However, the reason why this happened in the Sky Kingdom is simply because there is not enough food! After this matter is resolved, there is no guarantee that such a thing will not happen again in the future." Qi Feiran also nodded. explain:
  "Of course I know this. It's just that although the Cangqiong Kingdom is large, most of it is based on minerals, and the land that our Cangqiong Kingdom can farm is only so large!"

Gu Youyou smiled and said:
  "What if we increase production?"

Qi Feiran was stunned:
  "Do you have a way?"

Gu Youyou suddenly thought that there were many grain seeds bought in modern times in her space. These seeds were developed by the modern Shennong Grandpa Yuan.

If it can be used here, it can also inherit his old man's dream of saving the common people!
  Thinking of this, Gu Youyou reached out to Qi Feiran:
  "Give me a few more warehouse keys, and I will arrange for a batch of seeds to be delivered by then! I hope you can distribute these seeds by then. Increase our country's food production!"

Qi Feiran looked at Gu Youyou excitedly:
  "Gu Youyou, who are you? You can even do this kind of thing. You are simply amazing!"

Qi Feiran said, taking out a large bunch of keys and putting them in Gu Youyou's hand:

"The row of warehouses at the back and the Zhuangzi are all mine! Goddess, you can use them as you please!"

Gu Youyou looked at Qi Feiran angrily:
  "Stop flattering me here and remember to pick up the goods in three days! Don't forget what I said!"

Qi Feiran looked at Gu Youyou with stars in his eyes:
  "Okay, okay! Goddess, don't worry, I will go back and arrange for people to prepare for the food transportation in three days!"

After Qi Feiran finished speaking, he left happily.

Gu Youyou looked at the keys and rubbed her forehead:
  "Going south? Further south is the Feilong Kingdom. Is it the Feilong Kingdom's fault again? But being able to purchase food in such large quantities was only discovered at the end. It can't be done by a craftsman!"

Gu Youyou was a little annoyed with herself. Originally, she didn't want to get involved in these mundane matters, but because of her temporary softness, she got involved.

The lines of cause and effect are also getting deeper and deeper.

And in the Feilong Kingdom, Gu Youyou recalled the scene where Meng Yuexuan was taken away by big hands.

The aura of Dashou that day was very familiar, and their purpose has not yet been understood.

Mu Ziqing's arrival, and is this snowstorm really just the birth of an artifact? But how come there are fragments of myself on that artifact?
  First came the plague, then Meng Yuexuan, then the wind and snow, and finally the food, one after another.

Gu Youyou suddenly felt that there seemed to be a pair of hands controlling something behind the scenes on this continent.

Gu Youyou couldn't think of it and didn't want to think about it anymore. Since the food was shipped to the south, he would know if he went over and took a look.

at night. The Gu family gathered together for a rare meal.

During the days when they went to Huguo Temple, only Gu Yecheng and Gu Yechi were in the Gu family. They were delayed in returning because of food issues.

Now there is a letter from the front line saying that there is a shortage of military rations on Gu Yerong's side, so the two plan to set off with a batch of military rations soon.

At the dinner table, the two told the old lady about this.

"Mom, the third child is in a pinch now, so we two brothers decided to go back and replace the third child!"

The old lady took a sip of tea and said:

"If you plan to go to the border soon, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult! I won't wait long before the royal decree of marriage will arrive!"
