At this point, Qin Mu paused for a moment, then continued:
"I think we should have his wife host a banquet, and then use loquats and bayberries to attract the families of those wealthy merchants."
Upon hearing this, the fish in the pond understood.
"Amu, do you mean that we won't sell those fruits, but can exchange them for grain?"
Then I would donate the grain I received to the government, so that the government would make sure to use it for the benefit of the people.
So, in this way, I'm doing good deeds and accumulating merit, right?
Qin Mu nodded: "Hmm! I wonder how much those fruits can be exchanged for."
However, the more the better, as it means more people will be saved in the end.
Actually, we don't necessarily have to donate to the government office in the prefectural city.
The disaster situation outside is more severe than here, especially in Wuning Prefecture, which is not through which the Chu River flows.
The surviving people there were already barely clinging to life.
As far as I know, most of the capable people over there have run away.
Of those who remained, over 99% are having a tough time.
They need that food and water more than the people of Jianzhou Prefecture!
Upon hearing this, Chi Yu thought for a moment and said:
"Amu, after you finish the provincial examination in June, if you need to go out, how about we take a trip to Wuning Prefecture or the Northern Frontier?"
Qin Mu was observant, and he knew what Chi Yu meant as soon as he said that.
He shook his head. "Anyone can go, but you can't."
You know the temperature there before we left Anping County.
Even the water in the moat was almost gone.
The lettering on the wall previously said that the rivers had dried up and the earth had cracked.
Once you leave, the water sources in the Beilian Mountains may dry up in just a few days.
Think about the outcome.
The world is so vast, all we can do is ensure that the people in our own area can safely weather the disaster.
As for other places, those in higher positions will find a solution!
What you need to decide right now is, where do you want to use the food you get from exchanging the fruit?
Chi Qiao's ambitions weren't as great as Chi Yu's, and besides, she didn't want her younger sister to run around outside in the sweltering heat.
So she said directly, "Little Fish, I think Amu is right."
When you go back this time, you should stay at home obediently.
As for food, according to Amu, the entire Jianzhou Prefecture had already made preparations.
It's likely that ordinary people aren't in too much of a predicament.
"Or, should we send it directly to Wuning Prefecture?"
Chi Yu listened to her sister and immediately nodded: "Okay, then let's send it to Wuning Prefecture!"
Having received Chi Yu's affirmation, Qin Mu's mind began to race.
Judging from Fang Shizhong's situation, as long as Song Chongjin's background is clean, he will definitely be used.
In addition, there is an intention to cultivate Shen Zhaochen.
At that time, the grain that Xiaoyu traded for the fruit, should we have these two people transport it to Wuning Prefecture?
In this way, Song Chongjin not only gained recognition from the prefect of Wuning Prefecture, but also enhanced his prestige among the local people.
If nothing unexpected happens, I might be able to stay there and participate in the autumn imperial examination in August!
At the same time, it also helped Shen Zhaochen develop.
This will allow him to have a clearer understanding of the current situation of ordinary people outside, which will be helpful for his examinations.
Before he set off for the prefectural city, he and the adults speculated that this year's policy discussion would be related to people's livelihood.
And this is based on the premise that people suffered from disasters last year and this year.
