Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish
Chapter 43 Food Issues
Chu Mo jumped up and down and wanted to jump outside.
However, Yang Hongyu finally caught him, how could he let him escape?Even if he jumped to the door, who would dare to rescue him.
Yang Hongyu rushed to Chu Mo with lightning speed, raised her little foot, and kicked him back into the room.
After rolling on the ground for a few times, Chu Mo felt a little dizzy, but he didn't seem to be injured. He immediately understood that this was because the lady felt sorry for him and was reluctant to put in any effort.
He immediately said with a playful smile: "Madam, don't be angry. Isn't it okay for me to say I'm sorry to you and Xiaozhu?"
"If you don't feel relieved, I will prepare delicious food for you tomorrow... No, I will prepare delicious food for you every day."
When Yang Hongzhu heard about the delicious food, she was immediately moved. She narrowed her eyes and looked at Yang Hongyu.
Yang Hongyu winked at her without leaving a trace, then slapped Chu Mo on the head and said, "It sounds like you don't need to cook on weekdays."
"Now I'll give you three conditions. If you agree, the matter will be over. If you don't agree, huh..."
Needless to say what happened next, Chu Mo also knew that it would definitely not be a good thing, so he immediately shouted: "Madam, tell me then."
"First of all, you must solemnly apologize to me and Hongzhu, and also make a big table of delicious food to apologize to us."
When Yang Hongzhu heard this, she completely forgot about the taste of chili peppers and just nodded her head in agreement with her sister's words.
Chu Mo shook his head: "This won't work. One table is not enough. At least three tables. Only in this way can I show my sincerity."
Yang Hongyu glared at Chu Mo, did not answer, and continued: "Second, from today on, you can no longer act like this, you have to be serious."
Chu Mo blinked: "Madam, am I not serious when I am like this? I will do whatever you want me to do."
"Humph talks glibly all day long and has no formality. I don't require you to be polite, but it's okay to be more steady."
"Okay madam, I agreed. In front of outsiders, I will be honest and do my duty. At home, I still have to please my lady."
Looking at Yang Hongzhu on the side, Yang Hongyu's face turned red involuntarily, this scumbag.
Don’t dwell on this issue anymore.Yang Hongyu continued: "The third thing is, you must agree to whatever I say in the future, and you must not trust me or betray me at any time. If you dare to betray me, I will definitely kill you."
When Chu Mo heard this, he thought, "That's not right. Why did my wife suddenly discuss such a thing?"
"Don't worry, Madam, we have an old saying there, that is: What the Madam says is always right; if not, then I must have thought wrong; if I have not thought wrong, then I must have heard wrong;"
Chu Mo's words successfully made Yang Hongyu laugh: "Chu Mo, remember what you said today. If one day you fail to comply, then..."
There was a click, and a corner of the stone table beside her was crushed by her.
Chu Mo only felt a cold air running down his tailbone and straight to his forehead, and he suddenly broke out in cold sweat.
"Madam, don't worry, I will do what I say. If I can't do it, I will be struck by thunder."
Yang Hongyu rolled her eyes at him: "There's no need for thunder to strike. I'll castrate you directly and send you to Li Er's house as a eunuch."
Speaking of Li Er, Yang Hongyu suddenly remembered that she still owed him 3000 shi of food.
Although it was only 3000 shi, it was agreed after all, and it could not be delayed. He immediately called shopkeeper Liu and asked him to send 3000 shi of grain to the Ministry of Household Affairs.
After Shopkeeper Liu entered the door, he just lowered his head and looked at Chu Mo. He didn't even dare to look at Chu Mo on the ground.
After listening to the eldest lady's instructions, he responded: "Yes," and then went out, closing the door behind him.
Seeing shopkeeper Liu leave, Chu Mo asked: "Madam, how much food did you store before? The victims are coming soon. When will we prepare to take action?"
Yang Hongyu sighed: "I have collected all the grain around Chang'an before, which is about 150 million shi."
"However, according to news from various places, the total number of refugees this time should be about 20. This food is not enough to sustain the food until the spring of next year."
Chu Mo asked in confusion: "Madam, how many people are there in Chang'an now, and how much food do they consume in a year?"
Yang Hongyu thought for a while and said: "As far as I know, there are about 50 people in Chang'an now, and they consume almost 390 million shi of food every year."
"My wife, you have prepared enough food." Chu Mo didn't expect that his wife was so powerful and could spend so much money to buy so much food.
Yang Hongyu shook her head: "There is a severe drought in Guanzhong this year, and the food supply in the city is also insufficient. We also need relief."
"Madam, you are wrong. Although on the surface you have purchased all the grain in the surrounding areas, I believe that those grain merchants and large households still have a large amount of grain in their hands."
"If you don't believe it, just see if those grain stores are still selling it during this time."
"Moreover, madam, this relief to the victims is not our family's business, but that bastard Li Er's business. We are just helping. I believe she has already started to collect food and transport it to Chang'an."
Yang Hongyu thought for a while and felt that Chu Mo's words made sense, so she continued to ask: "Then what do you think we should do to help the victims now?"
Chu Mo thought for a moment and said, "Now, our food is sold at the market price. We will sell as much as others have."
"No, in this case, we are just like those profiteers, struggling to make money for the country!" Yang Hongyu categorically rejected Chu Mo's proposal.
Chu Mo moved towards Yang Hongyu, bringing himself a little closer to her, and then continued: "Madam, you don't understand this. Let me hear what my husband has to say."
"What can you say about this kind of ill-gotten wealth? No matter how bright your tongue is, I won't agree to it."
"Lady, if what I say makes sense, how about you call me husband?"
"Okay, but if you can't convince me, then what?"
"Then I will give you a month's worth of foot-washing water, madam."
Yang Hongyu's pretty face turned red and she sighed, then turned to look at Yang Hongzhu who was listening with interest. Seeing that she didn't react abnormally, she felt a little calmer.
"Okay, you can say it."
Chu Mo coughed, cleared his throat and said, "Madam, can you please let me lean on you? I feel a little uncomfortable lying down like this."
Yang Hongyu glanced at him with disgust, then stretched out her jade hand, gently pulled him up, and leaned on the table leg.
"Just stay like this for now. If you don't behave well, I'll hang it in the front yard for you."
However, Yang Hongyu finally caught him, how could he let him escape?Even if he jumped to the door, who would dare to rescue him.
Yang Hongyu rushed to Chu Mo with lightning speed, raised her little foot, and kicked him back into the room.
