Yan Yu found the general accountant.
"Why don't you go to Xizhou to buy coal?"
Firewood cannot be burned for a long time. The quantity of charcoal is small and the price is high. It is possible to burn things for heating. These are not the only two things that can be supplied in large quantities, as well as coal.
"The road is blocked by heavy snow, and the coal from Xizhou cannot come in." The general accountant said.
Yan Yu was stunned.
I secretly blame myself for not fully converting my thinking.
In Yongning City, the roads are paved with bricks and stones, and it is still difficult for vehicles and horses to travel, let alone outside the city.
"Have you seen my sledge? If it is bigger, it may be used? Walking on the snow is much easier than ordinary carts and horses."
Yan Yu did not give up. If enough coal can be bought, the heating pressure in Guanzhou can be greatly relieved.
The imperial concubine has money, and the big households in the city are willing to pay. As long as the problem does not lie in the money, there is nothing that cannot be solved.
Despite the resistance of the general accountant, she forced him to the door.
"Stay alive, come here!" Yan Yu shouted loudly.
The chief accountant just pulled back his sleeves, and thought to himself that Mr. Wang's grandson grew up on what he ate, why is he so strong!
So angry! Didn't pull a single child...
Is it possible that after the thinning of the hair... the body is not strong anymore?
Gou Zhu ran over from a far corner, and the small sledge he was pulling was about to fly all the way.
Wagging his tail happily.
Goutou patrols back and forth between Yan Yu and the general account room.
"Please take a look at the general accountant." Yan Yu pointed with her little hand.
Go live and understand, this needs to be shown.
It nimbly turned half a circle, and the sledge behind it drew an arc on the snow.
The small sledge stopped firmly in front of the general account room.
"Enlarge and widen the board, and make the side guards higher to prevent the coal from being scattered. The journey is long. It is best to pack it in a bag, so as not to throw too much money along the way." Yan Yu said seriously.
General accountant Fang Xin said that this Yan Xiaoer knew quite a lot, and he also knew that the cost of throwing coal on the road was high.
He circled the sledge twice.
"There is a precedent for transporting goods to and from Guanzhou with useless sledges..."
"You can say whether it is feasible or not. There is no precedent for the heavy snow this winter." Her small face was tense and her expression was serious: "General accountant, our family makes a living with charcoal. How much can a charcoal field produce in a day?" Charcoal is the clearest, but regardless of the fact that every house is burning day and night, it is still not enough, there is still a gap, we are not only in charge of Yongning City, the entire Guanzhou is the fiefdom of the prince, who can be left behind!"
Before entering the palace to work as an errand, Yan Yu could only see the two cities of Huju and Yongning in front of him.
She doesn't really care about Gu Feng, just like Hu Ju belongs to her teacher, Gu Feng's affairs are taken care of by Gu Feng's elder.
But after staying in the counting room for a long time, I realized the difficulty of the prince.
The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. The cities of Guanzhou are not the people under the rule of the prince.
Everyone has to be taken care of, and everyone is saved.
Official documents from various cities came flying like snowflakes.
Her godfather said that the letters she wrote to the prince in private were even tears, every word shedding blood.
One is more pitiful than the other.
Her teacher...is also among them.
The letter was written in a sensible and touching way, and it was hard for Chen Huju:
Bei Rong didn't knock them down, and they desperately moved around for lack of food, and they didn't hesitate to borrow money!
But the cold disaster... they fell down, they couldn't do it, they couldn't bear it anymore.
There are countless dead people!
Miserable!
The city is full of funerals again, and every family hangs white...
Grandpa commented that other cities are not as sincere as her master's writing, and slightly inferior.
"The coal has always been transported from Xizhou, and the loss on the way is also borne by Xizhou..." the general accountant mused.
Yan Yu understands that the labor and road damage here and there are originally from Xizhou, and they have to pick it up by themselves, so they may not be cheaper.
She wants to say what are you afraid of, the accountant, we have money now, why are we still so picky and searchy...
In the end, he swallowed it back.
"The general accountant's room, the price is negotiable, the charcoal in the city has risen to such an extent, even if Xizhou raises the price for us...it's not unacceptable." She muttered deliberately in a low voice: "In the end, why is life so important? !"
The general accountant's heart trembled.
…
As an idea-maker.
Yan Yu saw what it means to prepare for a large cross-government transaction.
First of all, you can't just bring money over there.
If you catch someone by surprise, they will catch you by surprise too.
Mining coal mines requires a lot of manpower. There are coal mines and iron mines in Xizhou, and a fixed amount must be delivered to the imperial court on schedule. Apart from this, it is the coal and iron that can be traded with other big cities.
Iron is expensive and coal is cheap. I want to know which one Xizhou will choose to dig hard.
Mined year by year, Xizhou should have stock.
But in this year's weather, people have to save enough for their own use first, and then sell the rest at a high price.
Yes, Xizhou is also cold, and the climates of Guan and Xizhou are not too different.
The Prince of England’s Mansion should first send someone to the Prince of Qi’s Mansion for a friendly exchange.
Express your intention to buy coal, and then discuss the price, total amount, time and amount of each shipment.
For such a large transaction, there is no one-time shipment, and the delivery time will be very long.
The demand on the Guanzhou side is urgent, and we can't let Xizhou delay delivery until the beginning of spring.
Determining delivery time is critical.
All of this must be done before the person sent to negotiate.
The two governments are far apart, and it is inconvenient to transmit information.
Those sent to Xizhou must have autonomy and a very clear upper limit and lower limit related to this transaction.
and even subsequent payment methods must be planned in advance.
There is also the problem that due to the heavy snow blocking the road, Xizhou cannot deliver to Guanzhou. Yan Yu's self-proclaimed idea...
It also requires the cooperation of multiple parties.
At this moment, we can't mobilize civilians, we can only mobilize the Fucheng Army...
There is also a large sledge, and the accountants feel that it is faster to disassemble the frame directly, and it is more time-saving to remove the wheels and make a slight modification.
Where does the car come from, the government needs to deploy it from various places...
And animals pulling sledges...
Coal transportation route…
Yan Yu: …
Quietly retreated.
…
It was not Yan Yu's original intention to leave work early, although she couldn't help much.
She can do some calculations, but the accountants can't trust her.
Out of the palace, Gou Zhu dragged Yan Yu straight out of the city.
One person and one dog came to a remote place, and the goshawk that had been hovering here for a long time fluttered its wings and flew down.
His paws firmly grasped the guardrail of the sledge, and he chirped softly as a greeting.
Yan Yu smoothed its feathers, and the goshawk rubbed her glove affectionately with its beak.
Some anticipation, some excitement, and some anxiety that is hard to suppress.
She asked Goshawk to scout the movements of Beirong on the other side of the mountain.
Today, Scout Eagle is finally back!
Yan Yu pointed to an open snowy field, and ordered Goshawk:
"Target crowd: Beirong."
"Number of split screens: 8"
"Double speed playback."
Hawkeye projection.
There are 8 slightly blurred split screens on the snow, and different screens are played quickly...
The original idea of the house is that the goshawk can project, and can check the movement of the enemy, which is convenient for fighting~
Writing this today, I suddenly feel that since I can cast one screen, it’s okay to cast more. With the level of technology on the uncle’s side, this should be a basic exercise.
So, I wrote it like this~
Don’t blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
The next chapter, let’s read it in old time, Zhai Zhai needs to check some information, and I will write slowly (〃'▽'〃)
