Chapter 619 This Man Did It On Purpose
As soon as Qin Chuchu and the man got off the carriage, they saw a large group of people kneeling in front of them, each of them kowtowing to them.
"Get up quickly!"
She hurriedly reached out to help them, but she was really helpless against them, as they kept kneeling down and kowtowed at the slightest provocation.
It’s a pity that her words didn’t work. The people in front of her acted as if they didn’t hear her and continued to kowtow.
Qin Chuchu was speechless. If she continued to kowtow, she would become dizzy, so she turned to look at the man next to her.
Han Muchen naturally knew what Chuchu meant. He looked at the people in front of him and said in a deep voice:
"Get up!"
As soon as the words fell, the people kneeling on the ground stood up.
“…………”Qin Chuchu.
She was completely speechless. It seemed that her words were nothing but bullshit, and it was only the living devil who had the final say.
Seeing Chuchu trying to hold back her eyes rolling, the man pursed his lips and said nothing, trying his best to control the corners of his mouth, and looked at the people in front of him again.
"There's enough grain left at home!"
"Enough, enough." Everyone nodded.
Next year, each of their households will have five greenhouses, and they will have saved enough seeds.
They also tasted this year's sticky corn. Just as the princess said, it was sweet and sticky, much more delicious than glutinous rice.
Thinking that such delicious and high-yielding sticky corn must be planted more, I left plenty of seeds.
As soon as everyone finished speaking, they looked at each other, and finally their eyes turned to Zhang Lizheng.
Zhang Lizheng also knew what the villagers meant and glanced at Han Muchen.
Although my heart was pounding, I still mustered up the courage to ask.
"Your Majesty, we have an unwelcome request. Please grant it."
“…………”Han Muchen didn’t say anything.
But the look in Zhang Lizheng's eyes clearly indicated that he should speak out.
Seeing that the prince did not lose his temper with him, Zhang Lizheng became a little bolder, took a deep breath, and looked like he had made a great decision.
"Your Highness, I beg you to help me sell the sticky corn from the greenhouse next year after it's harvested."
After saying that, he knelt down again, and the other villagers followed suit and knelt down, looking eagerly at the prince in front of them.
In previous years, when grain merchants came to collect grain, the prices were pitifully low.
Even in a year of bumper harvest, no amount of grain could be exchanged for much silver.
But it’s not like this year. The prince not only came to our house to get grain seeds, but also offered a sky-high price. This was something we couldn’t even imagine before.
I thought that if the prince was willing to help, he would help them find some conscientious merchants next year. Then their grain would not be undervalued and they could make more money. It would be even better if they could come to their house to buy grain like they do now.
In the past, they would not have dared to say this to the prince. After all, the prince was an unattainable existence to them.
But since the prince returned to his fiefdom, they have personally experienced that the prince is not a ruthless killer as outsiders say, but is a man who always does good for everyone.
They thought that as long as the prince was willing to help, they would not suffer any loss.
“………………”Han Muchen didn’t say anything.
Looking at the people kneeling in front of him, he knew what they meant.
Although he didn't have much contact with them, he still understood the principle of the salt seller drinking egg soup.
After a brief hesitation, he nodded.
"Okay, I promise you."
The reason why I spent money and effort to help the people build pit greenhouses was because I wanted them to live a good life.
If the crops we grow are bought at a low price by those unscrupulous businessmen, then they will get a bargain and everything we do will be meaningless.
It would be better to help them check the harvest during the autumn and prevent those unscrupulous merchants from taking advantage of the situation. The people can then sell their grain for more money and live a better life.
Everyone was actually very nervous, after all, this request was too much.
The prince is a noble prince, how could he care about their trivial matters?
But when they heard the prince agree so readily, they were stunned for a moment and couldn't react.
"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you thank me now?"
Deputy General Zhao on the side was busy winking at the people in front of him, and everyone came to their senses and kowtowed to the man again.
"I thank the prince..."
Tears welled up in everyone's eyes as they kowtowed to the man continuously. Originally, everyone was just trying it out.
I didn't expect the prince to agree so readily. When I thought that someone would help me sell the grain in the future, I felt very excited.
We no longer have to beg those unscrupulous businessmen like a grandson to let them take our grain.
“………………”Qin Chuchu didn’t say anything.
She stood quietly beside the man, looking at the emotional big guy in front of her, and her nose felt a little sour.
I've heard before that the people here have a hard time selling grain. No matter how good the grain is, they can't get a good price. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so poor.
Seeing how happy they are at this moment, I am happy for them too.
The man turned around and looked at Chu Chu with red eyes. A calculation flashed across his eyes and he looked at the people in front of him again.
"As for the grain sales, you can rest assured. Even if the king doesn't care, the princess will take care of you!"
“Huh?…………” Qin Chuchu was stunned.
What the hell?
She looked at the man in front of her with a confused look on her face. What does this have to do with her?
I'm not a public relations or salesperson, so how would I know how to sell grain?
This bastard was talking fine, but why did he drag himself into it?
Just as she stared at the man in front of her in confusion, the people began to kowtow to her excitedly again.
"I thank the princess..."
Their heads were banging loudly and they were very excited. They did not believe the prince's words.
If the princess hadn't given them some money last year, I'm afraid not many people would have survived.
So in their hearts, the princess is very capable. Not only can she help them sell grain, she can also handle bigger things.
“………………”Qin Chuchu.
She held the man's hand tightly, wishing she could pinch off a piece of flesh from his palm.
This bastard has no good intentions. He doesn't look for good things in her life, but he insists on dragging her into trouble.
Looking at the person kneeling on the ground in front of me, I just refused directly. Firstly, it would be bad for the man, as if he was lying.
If I agree, I really don't have the ability. I can pay some money, but I have never done sales work.
At this moment, seeing everyone looking at him eagerly, he really couldn't bring himself to say no.
I sighed inwardly and had no choice but to agree.
"Oh, that's right. This princess will do her best to help you when the time comes. Everyone, get up!"
She gave a light gesture to the people in front of her, and the smile on her lips was extremely stiff.
When she looked at the man next to her, she rolled her eyes in her heart.
“…………”
You bastard, wait till you get home!
“…………”Han Muchen lowered his eyes.
He put his fist to his lips and coughed twice, trying his best to hide the smile on his face.
Even though his palms were pinched by Chuchu and it hurt, he still wanted to laugh.
Looking at the man's smug look, Qin Chuchu really wanted to slap him to death.
Just as he was about to shake off his hand and get back into the carriage, Zhang Lizheng asked again.
"Princess, I heard that you opened the school in the Far North State?"
