Tyrant I am from MI9

Chapter 267

In the center of the painting boat, there is a curtain horizontally. It can be seen at a glance that it is a high-quality green yarn, layered on top of each other, as light as a cloud, but it cannot be seen clearly.There are several strings of crisp bells hanging under the green gauze, and the breeze blows by, and the bells are ringing, crisp and melodious.People can't help but guess, what kind of characters will they be after painting the general scenery like this.

Qing Xia looked at it very seriously, seeing that this person came here ethereal and unrestrained, she felt a little curious.Chu Li on the side watched coldly, and suddenly a cloud of anger rose in his heart, he suddenly snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Playing mysteries and putting on airs can only deceive ignorant women."

Qing Xia turned her head when she heard the words, and saw Chu Li raised her head slightly, showing a disdainful look, suddenly gave a chuckle, without refuting, she turned her head and continued to watch the excitement.

Chu Li's side was filled with displeasure immediately. He thought that she would turn around and quarrel with him after hearing this, at least she would quarrel with him. Who would have expected such an expression.The Emperor Nanchu's face turned black, and he suddenly felt a little unconvinced, if I also want to make scenes, I must be more imposing than this guy, no matter how arrogant he is, he is just a steward of the emperor.

At this time, a small boat suddenly rowed to the center, and a boy in Tsing Yi walked into the painting boat, and boarded the boat as if he was told a few words by the people inside.The speed of the boat was fast, and it landed very quickly. The boy in Tsing Yi had a fair face, lively eyes, and a simple stone box in his hand. Stand on one side.

Dongfang Li was slightly astonished, but still nodded, stretched out his hand, and slowly opened the stone box, only to find a wooden box made of huanghuali wood inside the stone box.Everyone stretched their necks and held their breath. With the big money from the previous big families in front of them, the richest man in the southeast just took out a stone box. He didn't know what priceless treasures would be inside.

There was a crisp click, and Dongfang Li's eyes froze for a moment, then he turned the stone box to face everyone, and said in a suspicious voice: "The treasure presented by Mr. Jin is called the Harvest of the Five Grains."

Everyone suddenly shouted in surprise, and saw that what was contained in the box turned out to be a handful of yellow things, neither gold, nor silver, nor silk, pearls and emeralds, but handfuls of rough small Particles are like the seeds of some crops.

Qing Xia who was originally smiling and watching the excitement saw her, but suddenly put away her smiling face, and looked at the stone box seriously, her eyes were sharp, with a faint edge that could not be concealed.

Chu Li frowned when he saw it, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qing Xia shook her head and said: "This Jin Shaohuang is really not simple."

The boy in Tsing Yi came forward suddenly, and said in a crisp voice: "This kind of thing is a high-yield seed that my son spent hundreds of millions of dollars to bring back from overseas. The current crop yield is only one or two hundred catties per mu, and we still need fertile land. Only then can there be such a harvest. But this kind of crop does not choose a field and is drought-tolerant. It can be planted even on sandy land, and the yield is two thousand per mu. I will not lie. My son cannot bear the fact that the people in the southeast have been suffering from disasters for years and cannot eat enough. If everyone believes it, tomorrow We can go to the Jin Family Mansion to pick up the seeds and go home to plant them, we don’t take any money, we just hope that by this time next year, the southeast will be golden and the grains will be plentiful.”

There was silence in the audience, and the excitement just now was gone.After all, most of the people in the audience were poor people, and they came here just to watch the excitement. The rich and powerful families here had nothing to do with them whether they burned gold or poured strong wine.But at this moment, when he suddenly heard this kind of statement, which involved his own interests, he immediately cheered up.

A brave commoner summoned up his courage and said: "My little gentleman, each of our family has a few acres. If this kind of thing can't produce [-] acres as Mr. Jin said, what will we do then?" ?”

As soon as this remark came out, the people below were buzzing and confused. Indeed, the people on the seaside rely on either the sea or the fields every year. Who would dare to easily cultivate such unfamiliar seeds.The little boy heard this, and replied crisply: "My son said, if you don't believe me, you can go to collect the seeds and go home to cultivate tomorrow. You only need to report the grain produced by each of your fields every year, and we will immediately I will give you grain and silver according to the price. However, at the end of the year, your harvest for the year will be handed over to the Jin family."

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this, and Dongfang Li said with a smile: "If this is the case, then this year will really be a bumper harvest."

Qing Xia leaned on the tree with her hand, instead of looking at the platform, she turned around and looked deeply at the green wood painting boat on Taichang Pond.The streets of Haishi were full of noisy people, but the small boat in the distance was gradually paddling and disappeared in the green lake.The night mist is misty, the sound of the flute gradually fades away, and a faint smile gradually overflows from the corner of Qing Xia's mouth.

Back in the mansion, it was already very late, and the few of them didn't have dinner, they were so hungry.After ordering the kitchen to prepare dinner, they went back to their rooms to change their clothes.Although there were no outsiders in the inner mansion, Qing Xia was still dressed in men's clothing after taking a bath, remembering what she saw today, she went to Chu Li's room.Seeing Jinyu carrying food on the way, she took it and took it by herself.

The door was ajar, Qing Xia didn't even knock on the door, just walked in with a greeting.Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the door, he was stunned. He saw Chu Li standing in front of the bed with his upper body naked, putting on his trousers, with one leg stretched in, and the other leg being put on. It outlines the man's fit body and bronze complexion, but from Qingxia's perspective, he just happens to have a panoramic view of everything, and the pair of pants that haven't been put on can be completely ignored.Chu Li was visibly startled when he heard the voice, and turned around quickly, his angry expression suddenly turned into fury after seeing Qing Xia, and then he heard Nan Chu Emperor's unmannered roar in an instant, and then jumped onto the bed with a bang.

"Get out! Who let you in?"

Chu Li shouted angrily, calling the embarrassing woman's three souls back to Qi Po, Qing Xia stood still and either left or not, after thinking about it, a burst of anger came out of nowhere.He went straight to his bed, put the food on the table with a bang, and said angrily, "Take it as a donkey's liver and lungs with good intentions!" Then, he turned around and walked out.

After returning to the room, I realized that I was very hungry, and I was unwilling to go out to find something to eat. I sat on the bed with my knees hugged, put my head on my knees, and remained silent.

During these days, her temper seemed to be a lot worse. It seemed that whenever she met Chu Li, she would get angry easily.The few days we just met were fine, but now that we've gotten acquainted, it's inevitable that we've returned to our previous appearance.She thought that after these five years of tempering and eight years of ups and downs, she had matured a lot. It seemed that her self-cultivation skills were still not at home.

Sighing slowly, his stomach growled again.Just as he was about to find some pastries to make do with, he suddenly heard the door slam twice.

Could it be that Jinyu came to bring me food?

Qing Xia was a little happy at once, jumped out of the bed, ran to the door, opened the door with a creak, and saw a man standing at the door with a gloomy face, holding a tray in his hand, looking nondescript.

"Why did you leave my things there?"

His tone was bad, and his complexion was even worse.Qing Xia glared at him fiercely, snatched the tray, turned around and entered the room, followed by a kick of her left foot, and closed the door heavily with a bang.

Standing at the door, Chu Li was furious. Not only did this woman not invite him in to have a meal with him, but she also gave him a face?At this time, he seemed to have forgotten that it was not the first time that the woman inside had shown him a face. He walked around the door twice like a lion in anger. When he was about to turn a corner, Chu Li stopped suddenly, then ran back to Qing Xia's room softly, and waited quietly by the side of the door.

Time passed little by little, and after a while, there was the sound of moving tables and chairs in the room, the door creaked, and a small head poked out, looking towards the direction of the east room.

Chu Li chuckled, which immediately startled the man.Qing Xia suddenly turned her head, and saw Chu Li sitting behind her, frowning, which was a sign of anger.

"I'm hungry, let's eat first." Chu Li stepped into the door, saw that the tray was still on the table and didn't even move it, so he smiled and did it himself.

Qing Xia walked back slowly, looked at him sideways, shook her head suddenly, and said: "You really don't look like a king of a country, you can pretend to be in front of me for two days."

Chu Li raised his head and glared at her, and said, "What is the king of a country like? Tell me."

"It's not like you anyway."

The room was quiet, full of food and drink, Chu Li leaned on the chair, and said slowly: "Tell me, what happened to the harvest?"

"That's the corn I told you before. It is indeed a high-yield grain. What Jin Shaohuang said is correct."

"Oh?" Chu Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "Then he did a good thing that benefits the country and the people."

"In the long run, this is the case, but at present, the Jin family can make a lot of money from this."

Chu Li frowned, his eyes were sharp, and he said, "How do you say?"

Qing Xia stood up and analyzed: "People rely on the fields for food, how dare they plant unfamiliar seeds easily, if the yield is not high or the price is not good, wouldn't a year's hard work be in vain? Jin Shaohuang promised The people's harvest is paid in advance for a year, so most of the people have to get seeds from the Jin family to plant. No one will refuse to guarantee the harvest in drought and flood. Jin Shaohuang is equivalent to handing over two hundred catties of money to buy With two thousand catties of grain, when the grain is harvested at the end of the year, how much more than ten million yuan will the Jin family earn?"

Chu Li nodded and said, "You're right. But what he did did no harm to the people, and it's a good thing."
