Chapter 650 Buying Seeds
As time passed day by day, Lin Yuzhu finally waited for the moon to come out.
She is a doctor herself and is very familiar with the care of her body, so she has already made up for her physical losses when she was out of the month.
Both children are very good, and Yue'er is always a little younger than Mu'er. Although she is an older sister, if you don't introduce them, those who see the two children will think Mu'er is her elder brother.
The full moon wine must be held. The Eighth Prince's Mansion is not short of money, but it is definitely not possible to hold it in the Prince's Mansion.
As the weather became hotter, the snow outside began to slowly melt and it was still very cold, but there were more pedestrians on the street.
The housekeeper who came to give gifts all remembered his name and Lin Yuzhu's meaning was invited to have dinner.
So in the end, I decided to hold a full moon banquet at Lin's Restaurant.
Lin's restaurant has not received any guests for three consecutive days, and has served in full banquets every day.
Nangong Yunqi, General Li and the prince-in-law were all helping to greet the guests.
As long as you come to congratulate the wedding, you can always ask for a glass of wine. This has become something that many people talk about, and they all say that the Eighth Prince's Mansion is grand.
Lin Yuzhu only appeared in the restaurant with Yue'er in her arms on the third day.
Zhang Bihua hugged Mu'er, and she was very happy and satisfied now.
I used to worry that Nangong Yunqi would take a concubine, but now I am not worried. I already have four children, so why should I take a concubine?
Lin Yuzhu is much more plump than when she was not pregnant, especially her waist is much thicker than before.
But she didn't care about these things, even Nangong Yunqi felt that the stretch marks on her belly were glory.
Mother Surong sat on a table on the second floor and saw Lin Yuzhu coming with her child. Although she was unhappy, she still prepared a gift in advance.
When she saw the two children in her cradle, she was envious and jealous.
The fifth imperial concubine and mother Surong also had a conflict. At this moment, she smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you and the eldest emperor have married for a lot of time. It's time to raise one."
Lin Yuzhu took a special look at the fifth imperial concubine when she heard this.
Why did she think that the fifth imperial concubine was deliberately running Mother Surong?
Mu Surong's face changed slightly, but she recovered quickly. She said lightly: "Don't force children or not. It's fate that comes. I can't take care of the many things in the house recently."
The fifth imperial concubine smiled meaningfully.
The Fourth Princess said in a smooth manner: "This is the grand day for the Eighth Princess. If not, I am very envious. It would be great if I could have a daughter. You don't know that the two kids in my family would be very worried."
The topic is very different, and the fifth princess also continued: "Your two children are much more sensible than my family, so my family is far from each other, which makes people worry."
Mother Surong sat down angrily, Lin Yuzhu pretended not to see it, and took the child to the table next door.
Lin Yuzhu was relieved after the full moon.
Usually, if the child is accompanied by a wet nurse, she doesn’t need to worry. With Zhang Bihua staring at her, she doesn’t have to worry.
So my mind began to revitalize, and after a while it was time to plow the spring, I didn’t know what the high-quality grains purchased by the Women’s Charity Association did.
Thinking of this, she asked Qingyun to invite Lord Wu.
Last year, I also purchased high-quality grain seeds from Lord Wu, but this year I bought them directly from Jiangnan. Nothing can happen.
The money from the Women's Charity Association has not been allocated to Lord Wu, and everything is purchased in the name of the yamen.
Although I use the name of the yamen, I must give the money.
Qingyun went very quickly and came back very quickly. When he came back, Lord Wu also came with him.
After all, I have not seen Lord Wu for half a year. During the autumn harvest, she has not seen Lord Wu in the village either.
As soon as Lord Wu entered the house, he congratulated him: "Congratulations to the Eighth Princess."
Lin Yuzhu knew that Lord Wu was congratulating her on giving birth to twins.
He smiled gently and asked Lord Wu to sit down and said, "Mr. Wu, please sit down and talk."
After Lord Wu sat down, he spoke directly: "The Eighth Princess asked me to come here because I wanted to ask about Guzhong."
Lin Yuzhu curled the corners of her lips, and she liked Lord Wu's personality. She didn't talk much nonsense and did things safely.
"It's true that it's for the grain planting. I've been busy before. Now I'm idle and I'm not sure if I'll see that the grain planting will be ready soon. Can the grain planting be in place?"
Since the Women's Charity Association wants to help others, it must be an attitude.
Lord Wu said seriously: "The first batch of 10,000 kilograms of grains purchased have been placed in the yamen warehouse. The remaining 30,000 kilograms of grains are still on the way. It is expected to be delivered within ten days, but I don't know how to distribute them."
Lin Yuzhu had long been calculating, so she chose two places, Anyang City and Fucheng. All villages, towns and counties covered by these two cities must be distributed, and anyone with land must be assigned to grain.
But there are a little less grain seeds of 40,000 kilograms.
Worried, "If the 40,000 kilograms of grains are to be covered by Anyang City and Fucheng, I wonder if it is enough?"
Lord Wu became much more serious and took out a booklet from his sleeve and handed it to Lin Yuzhu and said, "This is the land registered in the yamen. Except for some big merchants, the rest are all from the people. If it is only distributed to the people, regardless of the land of the big merchants, 40,000 kilograms of grain are enough."
He believed Lin Yuzhu could understand the meaning behind his words.
In fact, what he wanted to help was the people. Those merchants had money and could buy grains by themselves.
Although a lot of land was rented to tenants, these merchants were ultimately benefiting.
Lin Yuzhu calculated and had to buy some more grains: "We must ensure that the people's planting. As for how to distribute it, do you have any good suggestions?"
The grain seeds were bought, and the next step was to distribute them, and distribution was originally the most critical step.
Lord Wu has not been idle this year and has been thinking about how to solve this problem. Many details have been planned and said: "In order not to let the people below be greedy for the Mo Valley seeds, I plan to take people directly to various villages to send them. I have all gathered all the staff, they are all trustworthy, and they will also send people to supervise. We must let every household get the grain seeds."
Forty thousand pounds sounds like a lot, but in fact it is not much.
Lin Yuzhu said: "There is also a grain plant in Jiangnan, and you need to buy another 100,000 kilograms, otherwise it is really not enough. I can give you the money now, but you must keep an eye on Jiangnan and want the millet harvested last year."
Lord Wu agreed repeatedly.
Lin Yuzhu called the accountant, who was also arranged by the queen.
After listening to Lin Yuzhu's instructions, he directly allocated 20,000 taels of silver.
Lord Wu quickly left after getting the money.
Manager Cui, who is in charge of the accounting, is still in the room.
Lin Yuzhu also had important matters and said: "How much money is left in the Women's Charity Association's accounts?"
Manager Cui took out the account book and calculated carefully: "Excluding the 20,000 taels of silver I just gave to Lord Wu, as well as the money spent during this period and some of the money raised, there are still more than 58,000 taels in the account now. Does the Eighth Princess have new arrangements?"
