After saying this, Eunuch Cui looked at Zhao Jin and others. The indignation just now was not an insult to curse. Now there are Jianzhou Jurchens outside the pass, Mongolian tribes on the grassland, and there are chaos in the southwest. The Ming Dynasty was indeed unable to take action, and the current military mobilization was also in a dilemma. Now it seems that what Zhao Jin said just now is true. If he wants to take advantage of the danger of the Ming Dynasty and continue to fight, he will definitely get greater and more benefits from the court in such a situation.

If you want to fight for a while just now, but don’t want to be weak in aura, you are really worried that the other party will break up. If Zhao Jin really takes the opportunity to get angry, let this trick not be able to make the situation even worse, I am afraid it will be out of control. Wei Zhongxian, who is in charge of all this, will be blamed by everyone, and he will be with him.

"When the Ming Dynasty was strong, I didn't want to do it once and for all, but I thought about compassion and fortune, not killing, and I didn't kill at that time. I have been raising it for so many years now, of course it's a big disaster." Zhao Jin said a few words indifferently, Cui Wensheng was a little surprised at the other party's reaction, and wanted to say something but had nothing to say, just sighed.

Local officials are resigned. The so-called resigned officials are local officials appointed by the court and rotated regularly. However, these local officials are often hereditary of local chieftains, with the title of the Ming Dynasty, such as Xuanfu, Xuanfu, and commander, but for their own subjects, they are emperors and kings.

Such local officials were at most nominal jurisdiction in the court, but in fact they were still independent kingdoms. When the court was strong, they naturally did not dare to act rashly and surrender, but the Ming Dynasty court was getting weaker and naturally had a different mind and movement below.

However, no matter how emotional Zhao Jin's future in Xuzhou and surrounding areas is no different from the local officials everywhere.

After hearing the news of the change of the Sichuan Shejia family, Cui Wensheng had no intention of arguing anything, but said in a low mood: "The things you said are not difficult to do, but seeing that you are so familiar with the world, our family has nothing to hide. These are tacit understandings that are not written down. If the person who promised this matter will recognize it, it will be hard to say whether he recognizes it or not."

"Even if the person who promised this matter will not remain unchanged, we understand this." Zhao Jin replied.

Cui Wensheng ignored Zhao Jin's meaning, but sighed again and said, "With your well-informed knowledge, I must know that behind this matter is Mr. Wei. Without his kindness, the imperial edict would not have been released. But you have reached this point and there is no way to end it. Even if you have agreed to everything today, plus the time for sending letters again and again, when the canal is opened, it will be mid-October. How long will the canal be opened and how much food can it be sent to the capital? Then winter food is insufficient and the government and the country is shocked. Do you think Mr. Wei can still hold that position? This trick may not be counted at that time. If you continue to do so, you have to find the root cause and launch another weapon. Everything will be in vain."

This statement is not as tense as before, but is very objective in considering each other. The reason for recruiting pacification is to allow the canal to be opened and the capital's winter grain reserves are completely reserved. If this is delayed, the recruitment of peace will naturally not be completed, and there will be a fight again.

From the moment he came, both sides have not said a few words politely, but Cui Wensheng also made an accurate judgment, that is, Zhao Jin, the people in Xuzhou, also want to recruit peace and not want to continue fighting. He said this, the first meaning is to make calligraphy feel depressed, and the other meaning is to wake up the other. Even if the consultation and discussion are completed, the consequences may be uncontrollable. If the negotiation is completed, you have to think of a way.

After saying this, Cui Wensheng sighed again, feeling that he asked Yu Biao, no matter how much these young martial artists knew, how could they know that the grain and winter grain were related? Not to mention them, even the officials of the Ministry of Revenue could understand it.

"Eunuch Cui, in another month, the canal will be frozen in the north of Zhili and Shandong. There are so many ships blocking from Qingjiangpu to the south and north of the north, so it is probably too late to make an emergency. The capital's winter grain reserves should not count on the transportation of grain from the north." Zhao Jin said in a deep voice, and Cui Wensheng nodded in a depressed manner.

"But Eunuch Cui, there is no way to go for winter grain in the capital. The grain transport in the north from ancient times to the present, is probably not for food and food in the capital, but for life related to the transportation. If we say that after the river is broken, there will be no grain to eat in the capital, that is a joke. The prefectures and counties in the northern Zhili area are now producing a lot. Is there less production in Shuntian, Baoding and Zhending prefectures? Can't they supply the capital?"

Zhao Jin narrated calmly, but Cui Wensheng was stunned. He hesitated for a while before nodding slowly. The Northern Zhili area had been fully developed since the Jin and Mongolian Yuan. After the Chengzu Zhu Di established the capital of the capital, Northern Zhili became the core of the world, and cultivated farming and used the fields very well.

However, most of the manors in the Northern Zhili Prefectures are private property of the nobles in the capital. Generations of royal relatives and nobles often choose to buy land and houses in the Northern Zhili Prefectures, and the inner court's growth and gathering are often in this area.

Because of this backing background, there will naturally be no harsh taxes, and there will be no scammers like Liao salary. Tenants can barely get enough to live, nor will they flee in large quantities due to bankruptcy. The cattle, horses and animals on the farmland will not be forced to be collected or sold. They have sufficient human and animal power. With such a stable inheritance from generation to generation, the land production in northern Zhili is much higher than that of other northern provinces. Moreover, because there is no tax burden, the accumulation is also very sufficient.

"These food is not so easy to move. Not to mention Eunuch Wei, even Master Long Sui can't move." After nodding, Cui Wensheng smiled bitterly.

The interests of this manor involve many nobles, and there are many great enemies in the inner court. This is a very close relationship with the royal family. The military meritorious nobles have been declining for almost two hundred years. Nowadays, nobles are all royal relatives, either the emperor's wife or the mother. How can they move?

Hearing Cui Wensheng's bitter smile, Zhao Jin's expression remained unmoved. Chen Han and others who were sitting beside him exchanged glances, but their faces were a little disdainful. Eunuch Cui couldn't help feeling a little ashamed when he noticed these.

Zhao Jin smiled and said, "If it is a 100,000-year-old moment, it is necessary to move."

Cui Wensheng sighed long, but stopped talking. Everyone understood that they could indeed move, but after they moved, Eunuch Wei would be crushed to pieces, and the people below would also be unlucky. Working for the country is also for their own glory and wealth. If all these are gone, what's the point?

"In fact, the reserves of various manors in Northern Zhili can be used as a base, and there is no need to use them before the last moment. There is another way to offend people, but it is not as troublesome as moving the Zhili farm?" Zhao Jin said again.

The eunuch Cui Wensheng was stunned for a moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he spoke, "I hope to hear it carefully."

At this moment, Eunuch Cui truly treated the young man in front of him who was over 20 or even more younger than him.

"Since Eunuch Cui is the governor of the canal transportation, he naturally knows the common rules and regulations on this river. He knows that transporting one stone of grain to the capital will cost four stones of grain. Where did this grain go? In addition to being detained and swallowed by the canal transport soldiers, the big head is not stored in the official warehouses everywhere, and it can be sold at any time. What are the big warehouses in Qingjiang Pune? Eunuch Cui doesn't need to say more, please."

Zhao Jin slowly told the story, Cui Wensheng couldn't stop nodding. The transportation of grain means transporting grain from all directions to various nodes on the canal, and then set off at these nodes to the north, and then stored in various nodes along the way to transfer. Over the years, a large amount of grain has been stored in the warehouse.

These granaries should be grain in grain, but now more private grains are deducted from grain in the name of grain. They are beneficial in all aspects. They are constantly sold and transferred and distributed to all parties. This is a process that is carried out every year, month and day.

In this process, as long as there are no sudden natural and man-made disasters, there will always be a large amount of grain storage in the granaries of the node towns along the canal.

Although Eunuch Cui has been in less than a year for the governor of the grain transportation, this joint is very clear. The ups and downs of the Ming Canal have benefited from hundreds of years, and there is no secret.

"The Qingjiangpu area was cut off. Even if the river was opened and transported, the food there would not be enough time to transport it to the capital, but what about Jining? Where is Linqing? Where is Tianjin? Eunuch Wei asked someone to check it out. I don't know how much food I could be able to move it out. At that time, let alone the capital needs this winter, I'm afraid that everything will be enough next year." Zhao Jin talked happily.

These words made Cui Wensheng fall into deep thought, and he pondered for a moment there, and slowly asked: "If you do this, you will offend many people."

"Just, there is no way to offend people when doing things. Eunuch Wei can't afford to offend royal relatives. Can't he also offend the poor minor officials who manage grain and warehouses? Besides, I really don't want to offend people. I'll just use it this year and make up for it next year." Zhao Jin said with a smile.

The situation in Jining, Linqing and Tianjin is similar to that in Qingjiangpu. They are both important hubs of the canal. There are large warehouses there for transferring and storing grains. Those in charge of the warehouses are all small officials of eight or nine ranks. They can indeed bring out the background of the sky, but their grades are indeed very low, so they will not cause too much rebound.

Moreover, the grain is running every year. Even if the default rules are broken and they have taken their private goods this year, they will delay the storage of grain in Qingjiangpu and transport it to the north by the latest next year.

The eunuch Cui Wensheng nodded a lot, and there was a sudden expression on his face. It was indeed not difficult to do such things with Eunuch Wei's power and status, and it would not offend too many people. It was just a temporary expediency. Everyone would give this face. It seemed that the problem this time was over.
