Chapter 373 Let him go on his own

When two escort carriages were transporting money to Eastern Xinjiang, Jingyu discovered that Xu Ruyi had sent two more carriages to bring a batch of grain and grass to prevent Jingyu's side from being short of grain.

The first batch of grain and grass was quickly distributed to the army officers and local people.

But correspondingly, the people below soon began to spread the word: "It is these merchants who can bring out the money!"

Of course, there were also some sensible retorts: "That depends on the people. Some merchants are the most stingy. Whether they are willing to help us or not depends on the wishes of the superiors."

Although no matter what he does, he can't stand up to the different opinions of the people below him, but Jing Yu knows that he can't argue with the people below him. Since he has taken office here, he should make sure that everyone under him is well fed.

In the past few days, Dachui had been busy delivering food to the people in Eastern Xinjiang. Every night he was out of breath from exhaustion. He then turned around and said to Jing Yu: "Sir, if you do this, what do these people think?"

Don’t you miss your kindness? After all, these are all the money we paid ourselves. Don’t let these people think that our businessmen’s money is blown by the strong wind, so we should help them.”

Jing Yu replied: "Let everyone have enough to eat first. I will decide what to do next."

It is said that there is a vassal king in the territory of Eastern Xinjiang, and the vassal kings are the ones Jing Yu has met before, but Jing Yu has been here for a while, but he has not seen them come out.

Therefore, I wonder if I should send them a portion of the food and grass I have on hand.

Xu Ruyi was not by his side, and Jing Yu himself was worried that he could not handle many things, but Xu Ruyi finally let him go on his own, which meant that no matter whether the next decision was right or wrong, Jing Yu needed

Decide for yourself.

Therefore, Jing Yu felt that although he had paid for the money himself, he should make some gifts to the local vassal kings due to emotional reasons.

Jing Yu then took this opportunity to send some grain and grass to several vassal kings. After all, it was already autumn, so everyone should keep some grain and grass on hand so that they could use it during the winter.

However, what Jing Yu didn’t expect was——

The news spread to the court very quickly, and Xu Yinghong actually praised it, saying that General Zhendong had indeed taken precautions.

Jing Yu thought he would hear Xu Yinghong's reward in his next sentence, but Xu Yinghong's next sentence was to ask: "Prince, are there similar preparations in Northern Xinjiang?"

These words really annoyed Xu Yunze. Jing Yu himself was a businessman. If a businessman wanted to pay for it out of his own pocket, he would have a lot of money to spare. What's more, Jing Yu's properties ranked among the top five in the capital, and his family had a lot of gold.

, it’s easy to help the area under your jurisdiction, but what does this have to do with Northern Xinjiang?!

Xu Yinghong threw the words out, but didn't mention the money. Besides, it was the money Jing Yu took himself. Xu Yinze couldn't save face and went to the princess mansion to ask Xu Ruyi for money.

So Xu Yunze had no choice but to look grim and use his own money to prepare some food and grass for Northern Xinjiang.

But Xu Yunze was very aggrieved by what he had done, so he suggested: "Father, the supply of food and grass in the army has always been insufficient. I can supply it for a while, but for year-round supply, we need to formulate a policy. I wonder if Father can do it?"

An imperial edict can also be used to make it easier for people below to follow the new policies starting from next year?"

All things considered, isn't this still asking Xu Yinghong to pay for it?

It’s not that Xu Yinghong didn’t know how much money he had in his treasury. He had even considered selling his official position to replenish the treasury. How could he put a large amount of money on it?
