Almighty System Great Master Qin

Chapter 73 You don't care, I care
The problem of manpower has been solved, but the most important thing now is food. Millions of people are suffering from hunger and cold, and large-scale starvation may occur at any time.

Xiao Hong straightened his clothes suddenly, fixed his official hat and bowed to Qin Shihuang, saying: "Your Majesty, I beg you to open a warehouse to release grain, so as to save the people of the world."

Daqin built a lot of granaries in various places, and opening granaries to release grain is the most effective and fastest way.

There was an uproar in the court, and the warehouse was opened to release grain!
Li Si immediately stepped out and shouted, "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible to open granaries to release grain. The tax and grain in the granaries in various places are the foundation of the country, and the grain in the hands of the people may not be enough. And once the Xiongnu or Qiang people take advantage of the situation and attack , At that time, we will need to mobilize a large number of food and grass supply troops to go out!"

Not only Li Si opposed opening warehouses to release grain, but even Feng Quji also joined the ranks, saying: "Your Majesty, taxation and grain are the foundation of stabilizing the Great Qin. The soldiers stationed in various places still need to consume a large amount of tax grain every month. Once the warehouse is opened and grain is released, At that time, in the event of a war, I am afraid that the foundation of the country will be shaken."

Except for Meng Yi and a few others, almost half of the officials supported Li Si and Feng Quji's decision.

For them, the stability of Daqin is more important. As for the common people, it will be over if they carry it.

The most important thing is that the current disaster area is a bottomless pit. The flood in East County has spread to several nearby counties and counties, and the number of people affected by the disaster has reached as many as one million. No amount of food can fill this hole.

After weighing the pros and cons, there is nothing wrong with most officials choosing not to open warehouses to release grain. They are thinking about the future of Great Qin, while Xiao Hong values ​​the lives of the people.

"Alas" Xiao Hong sighed and said: "Since I came to Great Qin, I have never been as helpless as I am today. You ministers have a broad vision and can see far and think far. But I, Xiao Hong, can't do it. I can only see hundreds of thousands of people today." Tens of thousands of people are suffering from hunger and cold. I also said that no one will starve to death in the Qin Dynasty. Since you ministers don't care, then I will take care of it myself."

Xiao Hong paused, and said: "Isn't it just food? Well, I don't use any taxes and grains. I still have countless potatoes in my fief. I will send these to the people now, and I will leave."

As he said that, Xiao Hong ignored everyone and walked out of the hall.

"Mr. Wu An, don't be impulsive." Meng Yi and the others were in a hurry, they didn't expect Xiao Hong to be so stubborn and dare to disrespect Qin Shihuang so much.

But Xiao Hong walked out of the Qilin Hall, got on the carriage and returned home as if he didn't hear Meng Yi's cry.

Qin Shihuang looked at Xiao Hong who walked out of the hall, his face was very ugly, he never thought that Xiao Hong would dare not save him a little face in public, if it was someone else, Qin Shihuang would have pulled him down and cut him down, but this is Xiao Hong , is a disciple of the Immortal Family, Qin Shihuang hesitated.

In fact, do you really want to say that there is not enough food in Daqin Granary?
No, Daqin has been storing food for so many years, and there is no problem in helping these millions of people.

In fact, it is because the people of Dongjun were originally from the Wei Kingdom, and the powerful ministers of Daqin are still not adapted to the status of the Qin Empire. In their eyes, the people of the Six Kingdoms are still the people of the Six Kingdoms.

"Wang Chen"

"Your Majesty..." Wang Chen looked at the livid Xiao Hong and asked cautiously, "Your Majesty, what happened?"

"Let He Shen, Di Jian, Zhai Jie and Di Yun come to see me immediately," Xiao Hong ordered.

In less than half an hour, Di Jian and the others arrived.

"See Mr. Wu An," the four of them bowed and saluted.

"Everyone get up, Di Yun, how much cash does the Daqin Group have at present?" Xiao Hong didn't have time to chat with them, so he asked straight to the point.

"Back to your lord, Daqin Group currently has 20 cash in cash"

"20, although it is still not enough, but it is enough to solve the current situation." Xiao Hong looked at Di Jian and the three of them, and said, "I want to buy all your furs. The 20 is a deposit, and the rest will be given to me." You have half a year, I will make up for you."

Di Jian's three people currently have a lot of fur in their hands. Of course, these things are definitely not enough for 20 yuan. At least 50 yuan is needed to eat all the furs in the hands of Di Jian and the other three.

"My lord, what happened? Why did you buy all our furs?" Di Jian asked cautiously.

"There was a catastrophe in East County, and millions of believers were displaced. I want to use these furs to help the disaster." Xiao Hong looked at Di Jian and the three of them, and said, "Of course, I won't let you suffer. You can sell it to me at the market price. Wang Chen, you and Di Yun are in charge of handing them over. The furs will be delivered to Dongjun tomorrow morning, so there must be no mistakes."

"Here, this old servant obeys." Wang Chen said with a bow.

This kind of fur is used for heating the people affected by the disaster. Although it is summer now, after the flood, the people everywhere wear too thin clothes, and they will get sick if they sleep in the wild. It will be even more difficult if it causes a large number of diseases up.

But only the fur is not enough, the most important thing at present is the food, after so many days of practice, the aura in Xiao Hong's body has been raised from one to three, and now it can support Yu Jian's flight for a long time.

"Lianzhao"

Lian Zhao, the leader of the Xuanwu Guard, came to Xiao Hong, bowed and said, "Your Majesty"

"Starting tomorrow morning, every day you will send four Xuanwu guards to accompany the guards to escort the furs to the disaster area. Remember that these furs must be distributed to the common people. If anyone dares to interfere with them, they will be killed without mercy!" Xiao Hong gave his token Handed over to Lianzhao, but also gave him great power.

After finishing all the preparations, Xiao Hong summoned the Xuanyan Frost Sword Yu Jianfei and left Xianyang, heading for Nanyang County.

Not long after Xiao Hong left, a visitor rushed over and said: "Your Majesty has an order to invite Lord Wu An into the palace urgently."

"Your Majesty has left with Yujian and is heading to Nanyang County." Xiao Hong was not there, and it was not convenient for Hu Hai and others to come forward, so Wang Chen could only come forward.

"Ah..." The audience did not expect Mr. Wu An to leave with the sword.

"Your Majesty, Lord Wu An has left Xianyang with his sword and is heading for Nanyang County," said the visitor sweating profusely.

"report"

A Xuanwu guard shouted loudly outside the store.

"What's the matter?"

"Qizou Your Majesty, the soldiers guarding the city gate reported that Lord Wu'an's Yujian flew out of Xianyang City and was seen by a large number of people. Now there is a commotion."

Everyone was stunned, no one expected Xiao Hong to act so vigorously.

"Your Majesty, since Lord Wu An has gone to Nanyang County, you can send fast horses to catch up. You should be able to see Lord Wu An before the potatoes are shipped out, and inform Lord Wu An of the court's decision to open warehouses and release grain, and Lord Wu An can cooperate with the court. Let’s work together to rescue disaster areas,” Meng Yi said with a bow.

"Sure, send a fast horse to chase Lord Wu An immediately." Qin Shihuang was in a hurry, he was worried that Xiao Hong would leave completely after healed the disaster.

In fact, Xiao Hong's move to leave the Qilin Palace in a big stride at that time really shocked everyone, but when everyone came back to their senses, after a heated discussion, they finally decided to open a warehouse to release food, and Ren Xiao and Tu Sui had already brought their own food. Ten thousand cavalry came to defend the Xiongnu and Qiang respectively to prevent them from taking advantage of the situation to make trouble. The granaries that were opened were Qinghe County, Dang County, and Hanoi County, and then granaries in other places would be opened.

But these Xiao Hongs don’t know, he is rushing to the fief with his sword now, he wants to stabilize it before the disaster expands, as for Qin Shihuang’s worry that Xiao Hong will leave, that’s all overthinking, Xiao Hong has already Binding to the Qin Empire, even if Xiao Hong died, he could only die in the Qin Empire.
