Thinking about it this way, I just felt that it was a bit difficult to face Lu Chensheng in front of me.
After thinking about it, he still spoke.
"Actually, I came here this time for the disaster victims of Chengzhou Kingdom. I don't know if Mr. Lu has heard about it. Something happened in Chengzhou Kingdom this year, which caused the crops planted by the people to fail."
Yuqing bit her lip, and then said something.
Lu Chensheng's heart moved, the other party really came for the disaster victims.
"Isn't that what Miss Yuqing meant?"
"I heard that Xinghan City is short of manpower. If these victims are allowed to come to Xinghan City, can you ask Mr. Lu to accept them?"
Now that the words have been spoken, Yuqing simply opened up.
Lu Chensheng suddenly realized that he really came here for the sake of these disaster victims. If this is the case, then he can take care of it at that time.
The one behind Yuqing is Cheng Zhou, and it doesn't represent herself. If she can win some benefits, then why not do it.
"I heard that the number of disaster victims is hundreds of thousands. Such a number..."
Lu Chensheng said with some hesitation.
Yu Qing's face changed slightly when she heard the words, "I don't know why Mr. Lu is willing to help you?"
She wasn't stupid either, she could tell that Lu Chensheng had asked for a condition.
Thinking of this, she looked at Lu Chensheng with a bit of resentment.
"Chengzhou Kingdom is not rich now, otherwise, I wouldn't ask for help, and I don't want much. How about taking some mines as collateral?"
Lu Chensheng thought for a while, and made a condition.
Anyway, it seems a little sorry for the bamboo sticks that came to your door if you don't knock it yourself.
Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that it could be done if it was just a mine.
"If this is the case, then Xinghan City needs to send some food to Chengzhou Kingdom, Chengzhou Kingdom will rescue some people, and the remaining people will be handed over to Xinghan City."
Since it was time to negotiate terms, Yuqing was not polite.
Hundreds of thousands of people can't all be thrown to Xinghan City, so if such a drought occurs in the future, will the victims be thrown here?
What will be the system at that time?
The people of Chengzhou Kingdom might run away in a short time.
Lu Chensheng didn't have any objection to Yuqing's words, and Xinghan City couldn't handle hundreds of thousands of people.
"50 shi of grain in exchange for a mine."
Lu Chensheng thought about it and gave a price.
Yu Qingliu frowned, "Two million stones for one mine!"
50 stones are exchanged for a mine. If this is discussed back, the emperor will not accept it.
"Girl is too much. Two million shi of grain, how much is it worth? I will give you 200 grain at most."
"60 is too little, there are so many people, and this year has to pass, Mr. Lu is really so cruel, is he willing to watch them starve to death on the street?"
Yuqing played the emotional card, but Lu Chensheng remained unmoved.
"If these people are the people of Xinghan City, then I will definitely not stand by and watch. The people of Xinghan City are doing very well today, and how the people of Chengzhou Kingdom are doing now depends on how the girl behaves." gone."
Lu Chensheng responded, Yuqing's teeth itching, why didn't Lu Chensheng be so stingy before!
Taking a deep breath slightly, Yu Qing spoke.
"Chengzhou Kingdom really doesn't have much money, and there aren't many mines here. Mr. Lu is merciful, it's good to miss the old love!"
Yuqing looked at Lu Chensheng pitifully, and played the emotional card.
Lu Chensheng seemed to be in a bit of trouble, and after hesitating for a moment, he said, "At most 80 shi of grain can be exchanged for a mine, and there is not much grain in Xinghan City, so I will give you [-] shi of grain.
You know, you still have disaster victims sent to Xing Seoul, and Xing Seoul has to pay for disaster relief out of its own pocket. "
80 50?It's much better than the [-] stone that Lu Chensheng just said.
Moreover, this time I came here just to pay a price so that Lu Chensheng could help the disaster.
Now that five mines have been used to solve this problem, it is actually quite good.
Thinking of this, Yuqing was instantly happy.
400 million shi is not short of food!
If you save a little, everyone can eat for a while.
"I will send someone to ask Mr. Lu to choose the location of the mine. In addition, I will write a letter back immediately, asking people to bring the victims. I hope Mr. Lu's food will be ready as soon as possible. The people may not be able to wait."
Yuqing looked at Lu Chensheng and said something cautiously.
The disaster victims over there have already started to starve to death. If the food is not delivered as soon as possible, many people may die of starvation.
The delivery of food as soon as possible can also ensure that the people can survive.
"Well, but it's up to your people to transport the food."
Lu Chensheng nodded. Star Seoul City has not many troops, and Lu Chensheng doesn't plan to escort the food anymore.
Yu Qing nodded her head as a matter of course, and agreed.
"At that time, I will let some victims of the disaster come to Xing Seoul as soon as possible, and I ask Mr. Lu to make preparations as soon as possible."
There are too many victims, if you are not prepared, there may be some troubles.
Lu Chensheng nodded to show that he understood.
Seeing this, Princess Yuqing didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurried down to write a letter.
In fact, before she left, Cheng Zhouguo was already making preparations, and Yuqing felt that she was sure to persuade Lu Chensheng.
Therefore, the earlier you prepare, the earlier you will be able to provide disaster relief.
Now Cheng Zhou is only waiting for this letter.
After the other party left, Lu Chensheng also gave orders, and opened a granary to send out four hundred shi of grain.
Looking at the white flowers, they were pulled out of the granary little by little, and the granary was a little bit empty, Lu Chensheng had some helplessness on his face.
Suddenly, he could feel the feeling of seeing the money decrease a little bit on the fifth day of the fifth day of the lunar new year.
This is Lu Chensheng's family fortune accumulated little by little.
It's better now, because the granary was emptied directly for disaster relief, and I still feel a little bit reluctant.
"Young Master, if you feel distressed, you can plow more land in the coming year, and the grain will come back."
Hearing the news, Chu Wu also came to the granary. Seeing his young master's distressed look, he immediately smiled.
She seldom sees her son, and when she feels distressed like this, it's really fun to watch.
Lu Chensheng turned his head, looked at Chu Wu's face full of gloating, and rubbed Chu Wu's face.
"When the time comes to buy food, don't you use the money in the bank?"
what! ?
As soon as I heard it on the fifth day of the lunar new year, my little face suddenly collapsed.
Chapter 474 Disaster Victims
Cheng Zhou's reaction was still very fast. After Yuqing's letter was sent back, he immediately organized people to transport food, and some other people organized people to come to Seoul.
Then he took out the map and asked Lu Chensheng to choose five mines in exchange.
Lu Chensheng was also polite, and after the selection was completed, he signed a contract with Yuqing.
After everything was done, Qingyu didn't choose to go back immediately. According to Qingyu's words, she just wanted to stay here to see how Lu Chensheng settled the victims.
Lu Chensheng didn't care about Yuqing's actions, and let the other party do whatever he wanted.
On the other side, more than half of the victims were separated and came to Xing Seoul on foot.
In Xinghan City, Lu Chensheng sent a team to steam a lot of steamed buns and mustard cakes. When the victims approached, they brought some dry food to them.
In this way, they will not starve to death on the road.
The number of people who came was relatively large, and after a few days, a large area in Xinghan City was filled with a strong fragrance.
Just when Lu Chensheng was about to start accepting the people, Dengba from the Huhu Kingdom came back.
This time Demba came back with a trace of uneasiness on his face.
After the envoys of the Loulan Kingdom returned, they sent someone to bring the letter to them.
When he saw the name written on the letter, his face instantly became a little ugly.
At first, he thought that Lu Chensheng would not know his plan, but how could he know that the other party knew it, and he knew it clearly.
How good is this!
I want to procrastinate, but if I procrastinate, I need to pay some interest.
After discussing with the king for a day, Dengba finally decided to come, lest they would not be able to pay the interest.
In fact, the money they made after selling the goods brought back last time has doubled several times!
If such a high profit can be made several times, the money earned is enough to make a small country like them rich directly.
"It turned out to be His Excellency Dengba. I thought that His Excellency Dengba would not come back in a short time."
Lu Chensheng looked at Dengba who was brought to him, and smiled, with a somewhat weird expression on his face.
Dengba's face was also full of embarrassment, and then he said in awkward words, "Recently, there have been some frictions between the Huhu country and other countries, and it has only calmed down now, which caused Mr. Lu to misunderstand."
Misunderstand?
Lu Chensheng listened to the words, but didn't pursue anything.
After looking at some goods that the other party was carrying behind him, he calmly took out his own contract.
"Come back this time, you must have enough goods, right?"
I gave the other party a lot of things before, and counting the time when the other party was late, I need to calculate some more money to get in.
Dengba nodded immediately when he heard the words, "I've brought enough! Please also ask Mr. Lu to settle the matter."
He had robbed so many countries before, and sold a lot of the goods he brought back, so it was enough to pay off the last debt.
The rest is enough to buy some things to go back.
Baden has already considered it, and this time he has to build some armor to take back.
I heard that the Loulan guys actually bought [-] sets of armor!
Five hundred!
This is ten times more than them.
There is really no way to compete between countries at will. Seeing others looking at themselves is simply unbearable.
Hearing this, Lu Chensheng waved his hand immediately, asking people to step forward and count the value.
And Lu Chensheng took Baden to the side to drink tea, waiting for the goods to be counted.
Half an hour later, all the goods were counted, and they were divided into two lists and presented to the two of them.
"Look, is the price of this product consistent with what you think? Let's continue talking if possible."
Lu Chensheng glanced at it, and the goods brought by the other party this time were worth more than 40 yuan!
Demba looked at it and then nodded. The price written here was not very different from what he originally thought.
In particular, it can be seen that Lu Chensheng's business is quite authentic.
"The total value is 46 taels of silver. After deducting the 23 taels of silver you owe, and deducting the 6 taels of interest due to your delayed repayment, you still have 17 taels of silver left."
Lu Chensheng did the math, and then gave the other party the last remaining amount of silver.
The corner of Dengba's mouth twitched slightly when he heard it. He brought so many things, and there was only so little left when he turned his head, which really made people feel a little distressed.
Especially the interest on the 6 taels of silver, why is there so much interest!
But after careful calculation, there are indeed so many.
