Chapter 49 Tan Guangyi is here
Inside the room, Zhu Mingqing just felt overwhelmed.
There were indeed countless foods in her space, but how could she explain the source of them if she took them out now?
So you have to wait for the right opportunity.
I just don't know when this opportunity will appear.
Now, she really doesn't need the grain she just bought. If County Magistrate Wang really cares about the people, it is not impossible to sell some of it.
However, if we sell it, we are selling the food produced by the space. If there is a chance for other people to eat it, we can continue to repair the space.
Thinking about it this way, selling grain to County Magistrate Wang is indeed an opportunity!
As the door opened, Liang He, County Magistrate Wang and others walked in.
Zhu Mingqing collected his thoughts, stood up and bowed slightly: "Mingqing greets Lord Wang."
County Magistrate Wang also learned of Zhu Mingqing's identity from Liang He. Since she was General Luo's wife, he could not treat her with disrespect.
After all, if it weren't for General Luo, he might not have been able to go to Beijing alive to take the exam.
"Ma'am, I hope you are well."
His familiar tone startled Zhu Mingqing, "Do you recognize me?"
County Magistrate Wang smiled and nodded, "I was fortunate enough to be saved by General Luo back then, and I even got to meet the lady from afar."
But he was too far away at the time and did not see her true appearance.
Now that I can see his true appearance, everything has changed.
However, she is worthy of being General Luo's wife, her beauty is unmatched by ordinary people!
Wang Qin was also a little confused. He had never heard his father talk about this before.
Fortunately, his father didn't know what he had done, otherwise he would have been beaten.
Thinking of this, he wished he could hide immediately so that the other party would forget what happened last night.
Zhu Mingqing suddenly realized: So there was such a thing in the past.
In that case, they can be considered to have an indirect friendship, and the other party seems approachable, so it should be easy to get along with them?
After a conversation between the two sides, County Magistrate Wang stopped beating around the bush and directly asked his servants to carry the things out.
Because Zhencheng was not rich, the common people usually made a living by farming, and even the county magistrate's family was no exception, so there were indeed a lot of seeds stored in the warehouse.
As soon as the box is opened, what comes into view are dozens of small grids, each containing different seeds.
Take off the first layer and there are two more layers inside.
They are grain seeds and vegetable seeds respectively.
"I heard from my daughter that the Madam needed these, so I sent some over."
Zhu Mingqing was slightly surprised, but this thing really touched her heart.
She went forward to check and found that there were some seeds she had never seen before.
In addition to the wheat and barley she had bought before, she also bought highland barley and rye from the grain store in Zhencheng, and County Magistrate Wang actually sent oats, peas and broad beans.
Almost all the vegetables were what she didn't have, such as purple mushroom, coriander, horse teeth and other wild vegetables, which greatly enriched the types of food in her space.
A smile gradually appeared on her face.
Seeing her satisfied look, County Magistrate Wang felt relieved and asked tentatively, "Madam, what about the food?"
Zhu Mingqing finally said, "I can give you 5,000 kilograms of grain."
Wang Qin was dissatisfied: "It's only five thousand kilograms, how can it be enough? You definitely can't finish all the leftovers. How about..."
County Magistrate Wang glared at his son and said, "Shut up!"
He was about to speak when he heard the other party say, "If there is a subsequent need, I can provide it, but not now."
Wang Qin couldn't help but mutter, "I'll give it to you sooner or later, so what's wrong with taking it out now?"
Zhu Mingqing glanced at him coldly and silently said the word "herbs".
Wang Qin’s eyes widened.
Damn it, I’m threatened!
But he really didn't dare to speak casually anymore!
Zhu Mingqing smiled. It seemed that this man didn't look very serious, but he was still afraid of his father.
Wang Qin felt aggrieved and felt like he was being manipulated. What should he do?!
"Madam?" County Magistrate Wang didn't know what was going on between the two of them. Seeing that she was reluctant to speak, he asked again.
Zhu Mingqing smiled slightly and looked at County Magistrate Wang: "Five thousand kilograms of grain are in the backyard. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Having said this, he asked someone to move the seeds away, then bowed very politely and left.
He was only stunned for a moment, and Zhu Mingqing disappeared.
"Lord Liang, Madam Zhu..." Has she always been so casual?
County Magistrate Wang withdrew his gaze from Zhu Mingqing and looked at Liang He again, his face full of disbelief.
Liang He was helpless. Madam Zhu was not only casual, but if she met someone she didn't want to deal with, she would just ignore them as if they were air.
Just like your son!
"Don't worry, Madam Zhu is always like this. Let's talk about the price first."
After seeing off Magistrate Wang and his son, Liang He came to Zhu Mingqing with a smile on his face and some silver in his hand.
The two had agreed that Liang He would be responsible for the negotiations and the price would be split 28%.
"I sent someone to deliver the food directly. If this happens again later, you are welcome to find me." Seeing that everyone in the team received some rewards from time to time, Liang He wanted to take the opportunity to make some extra money.
Nowadays, the market price of a catty of rice is about six or seven wen. Zhu Mingqing sold 5,000 catties at a price of seven wen per catty, and finally earned a good income of only 35 taels of silver.
Liang He touched the seven taels of silver in his hand. Although it was not much, it saved everyone some money.
Seeing that he was in a good mood, Zhu Mingqing took the opportunity to say, "Sir Liang, I think the rain has subsided now, so I'd like to go out for a while."
…
On a large ship not far from the Zhencheng Pier.
The fat old man and the thin man knelt in front of Tan Guangyi, looking ashamed.
When he heard Zhu Mingqing refused to go with him, his brows knitted together, and a cold aura spread around him:
"Did she really say that?"
The fat old man nodded quickly: "Master, I dare not lie to you."
Tan Guangyi slowly put down his teacup, stood up and walked to the window. His back looked so lonely and desolate.
"Go down."
When he heard the sound of the door closing, his strong back suddenly collapsed as if it had lost its breath.
It seems.
Mingqing knows the truth.
Otherwise, why didn't he leave with me and asked me if he felt guilty.
But it doesn't matter, he will explain it well.
This time he came in person. He wanted to make things clear with Mingqing and take her away.
He is no longer the weak scholar he used to be.
They will no longer be separated by anyone.
As he thought of this, a hint of warmth filled his slightly weathered face, and the temperature around him also warmed up a little.
The tall and magnificent boat moved slowly forward on the rolling river, dragging a rolling silver ribbon, and soon approached the dock of Zhencheng.
Inside Zhencheng, Liang He frowned in confusion: "Are we leaving the city?"
Zhu Mingqing nodded slightly: "I'm going to the dock."
Luo Huai was puzzled and wanted to persuade his mother: "There are not many people at the dock now, and the river is rushing fast. It's too dangerous."
Zhu Mingqing shook her head. She went there because it was dangerous.
If Zhencheng is really in danger of being flooded, she must buy a boat, which can not only provide protection for herself but also provide timely relief to others.
Liang He was stunned after hearing Zhu Mingqing's true thoughts.
He knew that Mrs. Zhu had her own ideas and opinions, but he didn't expect that she even wanted to buy a boat.
And judging from her appearance, it is definitely not a simple boat.
Zhu Mingqing urged: "Don't dawdle any longer. If it rains heavily later, it will be difficult for us to go back."
Helpless, Liang He could only drive faster.
Luo Huai also knew that he couldn't persuade his mother, so he could only obey her.
But what he didn't know was that just a simple trip would trigger the real reason why the Luo family was exiled.
