Episode 22: Nan Jin finds it difficult to be frugal in collecting food

Wang Junmeng expressed her gratitude to everyone in tears, and she admitted her previous disrespect for Liuli and his wife.However, through this banquet, all misunderstandings and incomprehensions disappeared.An Sanniang came to Pei Xingjian to report on the current progress in raising grain and grass.The response from various places has been very positive. One hundred thousand shi of food has been prepared and is still being delivered.Anjia has some roots here, so Anjia's status is increasing day by day.As long as the news is released, all places will respond positively.

At this time, Su Nanjin came to see Pei Xingjian.The father and son had been demoted to Yizhou and came here for inspection.Qu Chongyu entrusted the task of entertaining Su Nanjin to Pei Xingjian.Su Nanjin couldn't help but admire her. She didn't expect Pei Xingjian to ignore the Qu family and his son so quickly.

Su Nanjin wanted to accuse Pei Xingjian of not having enough food to raise.He claimed that he was ordered to collect grain. If the grain was not prepared at 120,000 dan, he would take people to collect it himself.Pei Xingjian said that there is now a lot of food, exceeding the original amount.He hoped to extend the time, but Su Nanjin did not give him a chance to breathe.

Pei Xingjian told An Sanniang the news.An Sanniang thought that the sudden increase in quantity would be sufficient, but it would not be enough from all parts of Xizhou, and they would have to be shipped in from other places. Xizhou could collect another 10,000, and there would be 10,000 left.An Sanniang told Pei Xingjian that when they collect grain, they will collect it according to the excess quantity. If they can ensure the normal quantity, it can definitely exceed 110,000. Pei Xingjian has already made a calculation in his mind.

Pei Xingjian was worried that Su Nanjin would resent Liuli, so he reminded him to be careful to avoid him.The next day, when Su Nanjin and Pei Xingjian went to the Great Buddha Temple to burn incense, they happened to meet Qu Duhu who was also here.Many people were worshiping the Bronze Buddha, but they never saw the Bronze Buddha crying again.Everyone thinks it may be because of dishonesty.In order to alleviate the people's uneasiness, Pei Xingjian told everyone that the bronze Buddha did not shed tears, which showed that the country was peaceful and the people were peaceful and the people were living a prosperous life.The host was very pleased with this and invited Pei Xingjian to drink tea in the back hall.Pei Xingjian took the opportunity to ask for permission to raise food.

Pei Xingjian said that he could tell the secret of the Bronze Buddha's tears, but Liuli reminded the host that if the truth was revealed, they would face a real problem.If it is concealed from the outside world, it is a Buddhist lie; if it is not concealed, no one will believe it.Therefore, the host chooses not to know the truth.

The host is willing to donate 40,000 shi of food, which is a reward for the people's faith over the years.Qu Duhu told Qu Chongyu the news.Unexpectedly, the host agreed immediately, thinking that he had lived half his life and knew nothing but losing.Qu Chongyu knew that his father was not afraid of losing, but he just didn't want to be someone who relied on the Qu family.He also considers himself superior to his ancestors because he knows when to throw in the towel.Qu Chongyu admitted that he had not learned this, which made Qu Duhu worry about him.Over the years, Qu Duhu has been wronging himself for Xizhou and Qu Chongyu.Now, Qu Chongyu said that they will share the joys and sorrows with Pei Xingjian and Xizhou and advance and retreat together.

Su Nanjin also came to the Qu family and his son at this time and asked about the food situation.However, Qu Duhu said that he had given the grain to Pei Xingjian and knew nothing about the details.Seeing that Su Nanjin couldn't get anything out of the question, she had no choice but to leave.He was surprised that Pei Xingjian could make Xizhou merchants look on their feet, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused.Su Nanjin decided to ask Qu Chongyu to go watch a show together tomorrow.Tomorrow, Pei Xingjian made an appointment with him to check Pei Xingjian's food.

Qu Chongyu inquired about the information and learned that Su Nanjin planned to manipulate the weight.After hearing what Su Nanjin said today, he understood that Su Nanjin had prepared measuring tools that were not in compliance with the regulations.The next day, Su Nanjin led people to measure and weigh the military rations.Erlang discovered that there was something wrong with Dendrobium and asked to take all the food back, but was surrounded by soldiers led by Su Nanjin.Su Nanjin threatened everyone not to leave.

Pei Xingjian also rushed to the scene at this time.Su Nanjin complained first, accusing the merchants of flouting military law.Erlang also raised the issue of dendrobium.Pei Xingjian promised that as long as someone is found to have broken the law, everyone will be treated equally.Both Erlang and An Sanniang proposed to take Guanhu to an authoritative place for inspection to determine whether it meets the requirements.

Su Nanjin angrily wanted to arrest An Sanniang and others, but was stopped by Pei Xingjian.Pei Xingjian reminded Su Nanjin that if the harvest of grain was delayed because of this, he would not be able to escape responsibility.Pei Xingjian proposed that someone would arrive soon. As long as he arrived, no one in Xizhou would dare to be short of money.At this time, the abbot led a group of monks and pushed a grain cart in a mighty manner.
