Chapter 471 The governor was asked to do justice 3


    Qian Fanji lowered his eyes slightly. He had been to Nanyuan in the past, and the conditions in Nanyuan were indeed difficult. It was still summer when they went there, and the winter was even more difficult.


    Every winter in Nanyuan, many people freeze to death, and the price of coal is horribly expensive.


    ??Nanyuan is rich in aquatic products, but the road is relatively far from other countries, and trade is not very convenient. It is difficult to make money. Even if you make some money in the summer, it is not enough to pay for coal in the winter.


    ?When mentioning Nanyuan, Zhan Chi felt a little strange. The month he entered Nanyuan was indeed difficult, and he lived like a savage every day.


    Later…


    ?He looked at Ye Qianning and relaxed a little when he saw that the little girl had no expression.


    "The conditions in Nanyuan are indeed very poor, and caravans rarely go there." Zhan Yi answered, picking up a piece of meat with his chopsticks and putting it into the little baby''s mouth.


    “In recent years, aquatic products have been sold on a commission basis. Without sales, it will be difficult for the people of Nanyuan to survive the winter.” Prince Yu looked sad: “Many people have frozen to death this winter.”


    ??The money earned in the summer is just to afford coal in the winter. It is sold on behalf of the people to make a living in the winter. The coal is purchased from other countries and is expensive.


    "The other three countries have no shortage of aquatic products, and the journeys are long. It takes time and effort and may result in loss of money. No one is a fool." Zhan Yi said.


    Prince Yu moved his mouth but did not say a word, expressing the truth what Master Zhan said.


    ?Even if the price of aquatic products is half that of other countries, it is still not enough for the caravans to hire people, horses, and food for the journey.


    “The aquatic products of Nanyuan are more delicious than the aquatic products of the Three Kingdoms.” Ye Qianning said slowly.


    Prince Yu was overjoyed: "Yes, yes, Nanyuan belongs to the waters of the South China Sea. The water is fertile and the meat is very delicious."


    “Really?” Zhan Yi had never eaten it. "Well, the fish cooked by Si Po is very delicious. Although it doesn''t have much seasoning, it still tastes delicious, and it''s fresher than the fish in Beili." Ye Qianning''s previous village was also close to the sea.


    It can be regarded as a semi-encircled island, with the sea on one side and mountains on the other. There is a road at the foot of the mountains that leads to other cities.


    Qian Fanji remembered that they walked to Nanyuan for more than a month but never reached the border of Nanyuan. The border of Nanyuan was the largest among the four countries.


    Calculating, we can reach the two countries of Northern Li, but there are few people there, and most of them are barren mountains and seas. It takes more than half a month to walk from one city to the next before you can see any people.


    It’s pretty wild—


    Zhan Chi said that he had never eaten aquatic products from the waters of the South China Sea. They walked to a place where there was no fresh water for a month, and then an accident happened.


    "Tsk, tsk, everyone said it tastes good, so it must be delicious. Isn''t Gu''s family engaged in business? If they go to Nanyuan, let their caravan bring some aquatic products from the South China Sea. I want to have a good taste." Zhan Yi knew that the little girl had something in her mouth, so if she praised it, it must be delicious.


    The mention of the Gu family seemed to be touching Prince Yu''s heart. He sighed and said, "There have been no caravans going to Nanyuan in the past two years. The caravans from Xi''an used to go there, and the Gu family will go there in a year and a half." Once upon a time, it seems that we haven’t seen caravans from the two countries in the past two years.”


    “In the past, I only knew that Nanyuan was not rich, but I didn’t know that it was so poor.” Zhan Yi frowned and lowered his eyes at the little baby next to him. His family had really suffered a lot in Nanyuan before.


    Ye Qianning’s previous life was neither wealthy nor begging for a living. Her mother would send money every month and some coal in winter.


    The fourth wife will heat her small room to a warm temperature, which is not too painful.
