MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince-Chapter 583 The harvest is unexpected
Chapter 583 The harvest is unexpected
When Xie Zhang heard what the princess said, he immediately understood her intention.
Du Wan turned to Xie Zhang and said, "Work hard and don't play tricks."
"Yes, I will definitely live up to my mission." Xie Zhang lowered his eyes and bowed his head, and responded respectfully.
Mu Si'an always felt that there was something strange between the two people, that there was something going on that he didn't know about. Then he raised his head and looked at Pei Hao standing aside. He found that his expression was the same, and he suspected that he was being careless.
So, search according to area.
One person is responsible for one area, and whoever completes it first will help others.
Pei Hao was originally the main person in charge, but Du Wan took away the command. He stood quietly next to her, letting her do it, and found that her idea was actually quite good, more unexpected than he thought.
"Let's go to Ma Shangshu's mansion." Du Wan thought of Ma Suqin and heard that she had married far away from the south.
Pei Hao got on his horse and stretched out his hand to her, "Come up."
"Want a ride? I can't ask for another horse." Du Wan felt that she should pay attention to her image when going out.
Pei Hao would not tell her that he deliberately prevented people from riding horses for her. "If you do this, it will waste time."
“Oh.” Du Wan put her white jade hand into his big hand.
With his palm as a foil, her hands became smaller, more slender and beautiful.
Pei Hao pulled the man onto the horse and sat in front of him, "Let's go! Drive."
“Drive!”
“Drive! Drive!”
The guards behind them got on their horses and followed the couple.
When the imperial guards arrived at Ma Mansion, the first thing they did was to block the entrance and exit of Ma Mansion and prohibit people from entering and exiting. The concierge was so frightened when he saw that the guards came to the door that he ran to report to his master.
Two guards went in first and opened the main door.
A group of guards filed in, allowing everyone in the mansion to gather together first.
Obviously they came to check the granary, but Pei Hao and Du Wan forced them to confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans.
Du Wan has no guilt at all. Exploiting a noble's things is better than exploiting the people of a county.
Because Du Wan knew that even if the food in these people's houses were confiscated, the nobles would still be nobles and they would not starve to death. These people are used to calculating and often do not put their eggs in one basket. Therefore, they would not keep all the food in the house, but usually build granaries outside.
No matter how big Ma Mansion is, it is still easy to find a place to store grain.
Especially with the existence of Du Wan's cheating device, you only need to walk around Ma Mansion to dig out even the most secret grain depot.
The amount of grain stored in Ma Mansion was beyond Du Wan's expectation.
The small granary on the surface is not full, but only half full, and people still use it every day. However, after Du Wan's search, he also found two underground grain storage warehouses. The entrances were sealed. If it weren't for Du Wan's ability, it would be really difficult to find them.
Let professional grain officials do an inventory and estimate that there are at least 500 tons of grain stored here.
Du Wan was stunned.
She knew that nobles would be extremely rich.
I didn’t expect to be so rich, with so much food stored in just one house?
Five hundred tons of grain is equivalent to one million kilograms of grain!
"Mom, this princess is too small! Too small!" Du Wan wanted to scold her. Before, she asked these people to donate some grain and seeds, and it was as if her parents were dead.
Pei Hao couldn't understand what she said, "What do you want to say?"
"I asked them to donate some grain seeds before, and everyone was crying for poverty." Du Wan sneered coldly, "Originally I just wanted to take what was in their house, but then there were only so many in one house, wouldn't there be more outside the house? ” ˆ ˆ “Ha, yes.” Pei Hao was very impressed with his daughter-in-law.
Who doesn’t know that the rich and powerful have a lot of food? The question is who dares to do this like the princess!
No!
It’s really not possible to change someone else.
Pei Hao's family has a lot of soldiers, and they have been in need of food for a long time, and they have secretly bought it at high prices from others. Most of them refused to sell it to death. They insisted that they had no food, so much so that he even sent people to take risks to buy it abroad. , but crossing the ocean is too risky, and there is no telling whether those who go out can come back safely. If no one comes back, everything will be lost and there will be no food.
Even so, the Pei family did not dare to touch these people.
Firstly, my identity is wrong, and secondly, I have too many worries and cannot move.
At this time, Pei Hao knew that Du Wan had the idea of these people hiding the granary.
Before going to court, they did not expect to be able to do this.
Pei Hao was excited, but his face was calm and calm, "Daughter-in-law, how did you come up with this idea?"
“I was sitting in the main hall, listening to their quarrels, and I came up with it on the spur of the moment.” Du Wan said casually. It cannot be denied that she did think of it on the spur of the moment.
"Hahaha."
Pei Hao laughed out loud.
Whenever a daughter-in-law encounters a problem, she has the habit of "temporarily" thinking of the powerful people in the capital.
This is the most interesting thing. The first thing that usually comes to the mind of powerful people is how they scrape a layer of oil and water from wealthy businessmen or ordinary people. His daughter-in-law also had the same idea, but she changed the target, replacing the wealthy businessmen and common people with the aristocratic families in the capital and the powerful people in the court. Every time she was exploited, she was left speechless.
The daughter-in-law made it clear that she would rob her openly.
But what can be done to her?
This family is recorded, and then the next one.
The masters in Ma Mansion, including the servants, were all very strange. Wasn't it because they were confiscating their homes and exterminating their clans? Why did he leave suddenly? He found some account books from the principal wife and the housekeeper, packed them in boxes, affixed seals, and took them away.
Mrs. Shangshu quickly wanted to send someone to inquire.
As a result, the people sent reported that there were still some guards guarding the gate.
It is forbidden to leave the house before the matter is determined.
Du Wan and Pei Hao went to the next house, searched the granary, recorded it, and did not order anyone to move it away immediately.
Go to the next one.
Every operation is to surround the house first and drive everyone into a courtyard.
At this time, he avoided the eyes and started searching, and then counted the amount of grain in the granary, and then went to find the general ledger of the house, picked out a few key books, packed the boxes and sealed them and took them away.
Of course, not every government has a lot of food.
But most houses have them. You must know that in the homes of these powerful people, they like to have a secret room or a storage room, etc. Sometimes Du Wan was almost dazzled by the large number of treasures hidden by these people.
Fortunately, she has a good nature.
Not the kind of person who sees good things, it is himself.
Du Wan understood that the key point this time was to get food. It was okay to make them bleed, but losing part of the food was nothing. If they looted other people's money, they would be forcing them to rebel. What if these people are so angry that they all run to support the Northwest Wei family? That would be quite troublesome. She will then take action to get rid of them all.
In the original work, after Xie Zhang ascended the throne, he seemed to have bloodbathed all these people.
How to use the large amount of wealth collected from these people to govern this country?
Fuck, I’m so excited!
