Chi Yu looked at him, puzzled, and asked, "Amu, what do you mean by that?"
"Although Jianzhou Prefecture is not by the sea, the Chi River flows into the sea at its end."
We'll go out of town tomorrow. We'll set off in the morning and then take a boat.
If we return tonight or before noon the day after tomorrow, we will be considered as imported goods from overseas.
By then, whether it's loquats, bayberries, or even wild grapes, no one will care whether they're in season or not.
Chi Yu nodded and asked again, "Then what's the matter with Master Shen and Scholar Song coming here?"
Qin Mu did not hide anything and told the truth:
"That's what I meant!"
I wrote to Lord Fang a few days ago and asked him to make the arrangements.
Lord Fang has no one he can trust in the court.
He wanted to cultivate his own capable civil officials, so he needed to create momentum.
Although I participated in the imperial examinations, I only managed to pass the provincial examinations at most, and I was still just a military officer.
After Lord Fang ascends the throne, both civil and military officials must have their own trusted confidants. Do you understand what I mean?
Chi Yu nodded: "Mm!"
Qin Mu continued, "The grain you exchanged for the fruit, have the two of them transport it to Wuning Prefecture."
Firstly, it would increase their public prestige; secondly, it would allow them to see the hardships faced by ordinary people outside the village.
Furthermore, the round trip takes a considerable amount of time, which allows them to have a deeper understanding of the situation.
The adults and I both felt that this year's autumn imperial examination would focus on post-disaster livelihood issues in the policy discussion.
Once they have these feelings, they will think about solutions.
Song Chongjin will stay in Wuning Prefecture to participate in the autumn examination, while Shen Zhaochen will return here to participate.
Furthermore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Lord Fang will return to Beijing at the end of next year.
At the beginning of the year, Shen Zhaochen and Song Chongjin happened to participate in the Spring Imperial Examination.
If they both made the list, one would go to the Hanlin Academy, and the other would go to the Ministry of Revenue.
Of course, I'm referring to the original plan.
However, plans might change, so Xiaoyu, we need to be prepared to go to Beijing at any time.
Chi Yu paused for a moment, then asked, "If Lord Fang leaves, who will take over Anping County?"
“Anping County is now considered the territory of the adults, so they will naturally send trustworthy people. You don’t need to worry about that.”
"Okay, I'll go call my sister-in-law and the others to come and pick some things."
There aren't many trees left, so we'll pick them later and store them at Xianju to keep them fresh.
Qin Mu shook his head: "It's too late now, let's talk about it tomorrow."
When we go out, we can just hire a car.
During the day, my second and third brothers helped me pick them and put them in Xianju.
When we return, we'll release it; just enough for people to see.
I'll go to Lord Su's residence and tell him about my suggestion.
When it comes time to escort the grain to Wuning Prefecture, Shen Zhaochen and Song Chongjin alone won't be enough.
We need Lord Su to send someone to escort us!
Qin Mu knew that the yamen runners in Anping County were very busy, and the soldiers guarding the city could not leave without being summoned.
So in the end, the only people who came should be Song Chongjin and Shen Zhaochen.
Since that's the case, then Lord Su will definitely send someone to escort them.
He'll go over tomorrow and make the suggestion first, so that Lord Su can be prepared in advance!
Chi Yu wasn't very familiar with Song Chongjin and Shen Zhaochen, so when she heard that Qin Mu had already made arrangements, she simply stopped thinking about it.
She just wanted to go out tomorrow and bring out all the snails and other things when she came back.
In the past few days, she and her sister have collected quite a lot and are still figuring out how to sell them.
I can't possibly finish all that food myself.
