Chapter 164 Northern Frontier
Wen Xingluo bowed to Wen Xingyun and said, "Your Majesty, my princess has calculated that there will be a snowstorm this winter, and the location will be in the northern border area."
Wen Xingyun's expression became more serious: "Are you sure?"
Wen Xingluo nodded: "It's still early, we can stock up on supplies and send them to the northern border. The journey from here is not short."
Wen Xingyun remained silent, only calculating how to transport the goods: "If we buy a large quantity of items now, I'm afraid it will cause panic among others."
Wen Xingluo also fell silent. It was not winter yet, so it could not be directly said that they were stockpiling supplies due to the snow disaster.
If we had purchased supplies and shipped them over at that time, if something had happened on the way, I'm afraid more people would have died.
Mu Gui had no room to interrupt. His hometown was in northern Xinjiang, and if a snowstorm really happened, many people would probably die.
The hall fell into silence in an instant.
Jiang Suisui was also busy in the house. He gathered everyone together and said, "Please help me notify the families I helped before and ask them to come to the house tomorrow."
Everyone immediately set out to inform the family where Jiang Suisui had moved.
Wen Xingluo didn't come back all night, but the jade pendant on him was intact, so she was not worried.
The heads of all the families who were notified early in the morning came to the house.
Mrs. Ji also came to the house with her son and grandson.
Jiang Suisui didn't have much time to catch up with them now: "I asked everyone to come here today because I have something I want your help with, but it's all voluntary, no pressure."
Madam Wu was a very forthright person: "Princess, please feel free to ask. We will do whatever we can to help you."
"There will be a snowstorm in northern Xinjiang this year. I want to stock up on some supplies and send them to northern Xinjiang before the snowstorm hits." Jiang Suisui said calmly.
Madam Ji frowned: "I've never heard of snow disasters in the northern border in previous years!"
Jiang Suisui: "So it seems this snowstorm will be even more severe than previous ones in Northeast China."
Madam Wu: "Princess, since this is disaster relief, it is a great merit. Let us count it as a part of the Wu family's contribution."
Mr. Lian said with a smile: "Count our Lian family in as well."
The rest of the families also participated.
Jiang Suisui looked at them and said with a smile, "Do you have any shops in Northern Xinjiang?"
Ji Junchu said with a smile: "We have it, but business is not very good."
There are also several other shops.
Jiang Suisui smiled and said, "When you deliver the supplies, please write the names of your shops on them."
A group of people looked puzzled: "Why is this happening?"
"You'll know later." Jiang Suisui thought for a moment and said, "The cotton coat and pants don't have to be new. You can look for those that others don't want. Anything that can keep you warm will be fine, but they must be clean."
Ji Junchu was just looking at Helena and didn't expect that the princess's maid was so beautiful.
Helena noticed Ji Junchu's gaze and glared at him fiercely.
Jiang Sui accidentally saw it, calculated with his fingers, and smiled as if to see what was going on.
Every family immediately went back to prepare to mobilize their connections, and shops in various towns purchased supplies to avoid causing panic.
So you need to spread your purchases.
Jiang Suisui also asked people in the mansion to go to other places in the capital to buy supplies, and when they had enough, they would concentrate them in one place.
Wen Xingluo returned home and found that Jiang Suisui was the only one at home, and everyone else seemed to have gone out.
Jiang Suisui saw him coming back with a tired look on his face: "Not going well?"
Wen Xingluo nodded: "The court officials said that the Imperial Observatory did not see any signs of natural disasters, and that stockpiling food too early would cause panic among the people."
Jiang Suisui: "What does your Majesty mean?"
"It's unlikely that the emperor would get money from the Ministry of Revenue, so he used money from his own private treasury to purchase it."
"If there really is a snowstorm, he will make the Ministry of Revenue pay him back with interest."
Jiang Suisui's face was full of smiles: "Your Majesty is also very frustrated."
Wen Xingluo smiled bitterly: "There's nothing we can do about it."
"Your Highness, Princess, Eunuch Mugui and Miss Chunmian are here." Luo Jiu ran in at this time.
Jiang Suisui looked at the two people who walked in from the door. They were carrying a lot of things behind them.
She looked at Wen Xingluo with some confusion.
