Return of the Swallow

Upon hearing Pang Xiao's question, Qin Yining's heart jumped suddenly. However, she had always been calm in the face of danger. A brief analysis of Pang Xiao's expression at this moment revealed that he was not here to accuse her. His eyes were focused and hot, as if he wanted to swallow her into his stomach.

Qin Yining said shyly, "Since gentlemen want to listen, I will naturally go out with you."

"Okay. Give your master an extra cloak. It's very windy outside."

"Hey!" Jiyun and Bingtang immediately went to open the box and help Qin Yining change clothes.

Pang Xiao watched the beauty change her clothes while chatting with her, "Are you tired of staying at home? If you don't like it, I will take you out to play another day."

"Okay. It's just that it keeps raining, so even if we go out to play, we can't have enough fun."

Pang Xiao sighed.

After Qin Yining put on her cloak, she stepped forward and took Pang Xiao's arm: "Let's go."

As soon as he went out, he saw Mu Jinghu having tea outside.

Qin Yining smiled and said, "I asked them to prepare black-bone chicken soup, and we will eat it together in the evening."

"Okay." Mu Jinghu agreed happily.

Several people walked forward chatting and laughing. Because she was afraid of getting her embroidered shoes wet, Qin Yining wore a pair of good wooden clogs outside her embroidered shoes. They made a clattering sound when she walked. Even when Pang Xiao heard her footsteps, she felt very comfortable, as if her footsteps were stepping on him. It felt like a knot in my heart.

When they arrived at the front, several people saw each other and sat down according to their status. Xie Yue and Qin Yining were more familiar with each other, so they asked with a smile: "Princess purchased food at Sitong?"

Qin Yining smiled and said, "Yes. The prince has been hunting down fugitives. I think with the character of Uncle Zhongyi, she will not allow anyone to interfere with his authority. So I guess what methods he will use to deal with us if he is not satisfied. .”

"So the princess guessed that he would control the food and grass?"

Qin Yining nodded, "More than that, I was thinking that their family can sell their official positions and titles, and maybe they will make a fortune for the country in order to drive up the price of rice. So I thought, no matter whether I guessed right or not, the food in the future would be The price will definitely not be like this, and it’s no big deal to take precautions early.”

She looked at Pang Xiao with a pair of bright watery eyes, as if asking what Pang Xiao meant.

Pang Xiao smiled and said, "Thank you for your predictability, today's purchase of military rations failed."

"Really? Then this batch of grains will be enough to top it off."

Huzi laughed and said: "Princess, it's all thanks to you that we have enough food to eat. When the brothers find out later, they will definitely be grateful to you."

"I just guessed it by chance. I don't have money to pay for food. Your prince is in charge of your food."

Qin Yining brushed off all the credit, causing everyone present to laugh.

Pang Xiao said, dumbfounded: "Don't worry, how can I be greedy for your money? I should have taken the money myself."

Qin Yining smiled and said, "Actually, I not only bought a small amount of food for everyone in the house to eat, I also bought a lot of food through the storekeeper Yin Da of Sitong. It's just that the distance is long and it can't be transported in a short time. Come."

Pang Xiao smiled and sighed, shaking his head, "Thank you for your thoughtfulness."

Xie Yue said, "The princess has been paying attention to the Di newspaper since the first day she came to Huichuan County. I think with the princess's intelligence,

Since his subordinates have their own business, they naturally know when to prepare what. "

Qin Yining smiled and said: "It's not that exaggerated. I just thought of something on the spur of the moment and did it willfully. However, this time the purchase of military rations failed. The two larger two lines in Huichuan County and a few It’s a small grain shop, why are they unwilling to sell grain to us? I think it’s 100% that Uncle Zhongyi is behind it. I’ve been guarding against him, but now he’s really done it. We cannot be treated as soft persimmons that can be squashed or squashed by others."

Several people nodded.

Pang Xiao smiled and said: "Compared to you, I am too reckless. Sister Yi, how do you think we should deal with him? I will listen to you."

In fact, Qin Yining said that he had always been on guard against Lu Heng, which made Pang Xiao feel more satisfied than if he had eaten ten jars of honey. He immediately forgot about all the restraints.

Qin Yining said: "They have the intention of driving up prices. How can ordinary people have so much money to eat such expensive food? Although the price of this batch of food I asked Shopkeeper Yin to help me buy is a bit more expensive than before, it is still..." It’s cheaper than the ones they raised several times in price. So I plan to let Sitong sell this grain at a price that won’t make a loss.”

"Oh?" Xu Weizhi said with a smile, "This is a good opportunity to make a fortune. Will Sitonghao be willing to do it?"

Mu Jinghu said on the side: "If you are willing, Shanshan will definitely not object."

With Mu Jinghu here, what he said can be counted.

Qin Yining said: "A gentleman loves money in a wise way. I think if the rain continues, it won't be long before the entire Zhou Dynasty has enough food. Especially in the south, a large part of my land is in the south. Now, Due to the floods, the land that had a particularly good harvest is expected to have no harvest this year. Even though I am like this, the people still don’t know what will happen. We cannot make money in a national crisis.

"Let Sitong sell grain normally, so as to balance the prices in Huichuan County. You must know that with continuous heavy rain, even the airtight warehouse will be damp, and the grain will become moldy after getting damp. Their prices It’s so high, if the food becomes moldy, they wouldn’t be able to sell it even if they want to, right?”

"What the princess said is absolutely true." Xu Weizhi said with admiration: "The princess really takes one step at a time and sees ten steps ahead. In this way, those who are driving up the price of food see that the food in Sitong is selling so fast, but their food is so fast. They might be left to get moldy in their hands, and they will definitely feel resentment towards those who instigated them behind their backs.”

Qin Yining nodded with a smile, "Yes."

Xie Yue said: "What a chain plan, the princess is very good at this." He turned around and looked at Pang Xiao, "My lord, the princess is such a hero among women, it is too humiliating for you to confine her to the inner house to embroider. You'd better not let the princess suffer." I feel aggrieved, let her go freely and allow her to come and go freely."

Speaking of this, Xie Yue spread his hands and said, "Look, even if the princess is grounded, isn't there still a lot of things to be done?"

Pang Xiao laughed: "No, Jiyun always goes out to help you buy things. I didn't expect that he would also pass on messages to you."

Qin Yining felt a little guilty. After all, it was because of Jiyun's help in passing the message that she successfully entrusted the person to the shopkeeper of Yin Da and hid it.

She didn't have to save two people with evil intentions, but these two people stayed, and she always felt that they might be useful one day in the future.

"Okay, okay, Sister Yi has been grounded by me for many days. Now the two fleeing people outside can't be found for a moment. I'm actually afraid that Sister Yi will be in danger if she goes out. Otherwise, in the future, When you go out, either I will accompany you, or I will arrange extra escorts for you, is that feasible?"
