Chapter 158 Xihe County

Audition today.

Anticipating that something interesting might happen today, Ji Chenxing turned on the ancient live broadcast.

While broadcasting their own lives and expanding their influence, it can also allow ancient people to earn some fan value and avoid surviving this drought and flood disaster.

I haven’t had a live broadcast for a few days, and the ancient people seem to miss Ji Chenxing a little.

As soon as Ji Chenxing started broadcasting, someone came to greet Ji Chenxing.

Ji Chenxing did not give much response, but with the help of the live broadcast system, he looked at the current situation in ancient times.

Although the flood in Daliang this year is serious, it is still better than in previous years.

It is only because of the accumulation of previous years that the food shortage situation has become increasingly serious.

When the granaries are full, people know etiquette. Ji Chenxing glanced at the comment section and found that those who greeted him were those who were full or at least half full.

Those people in wealthy and well-regarded areas were fortunate enough to be taken care of by the court's opening of granaries and releasing grain.

After layers of exploitation, ordinary people finally had little food, but at least some of them could survive.

As for those small places that were not paid attention to, there was not even a trace of the grain allocated by the imperial court.

Jun Heng treated these places equally, but problems arose in the process of distributing grain.

Ji Chenxing had discussed this matter with Jun Heng a long time ago, but because the Daliang court had a large number of employees, it would take some time to identify and replace the unsuitable ones.

Ji Chenxing turned his attention to Xihe.

Some time ago, because of Ji Chenxing's contributions to Daliang, Jun Heng conferred the title of Princess Xihe on Ji Chenxing.

Even if it was just a nominal title, in the ranking of women's status in ancient times, the status of a county princess was only second to that of a princess.

Ji Chenxing's title of princess is even more important, because not only was it conferred by the emperor himself, but she was also given a fiefdom.

This shows that Ji Chenxing's title of Princess is not an empty title. Even those old ministers who do not take empty titles seriously have to acknowledge Ji Chenxing's status.

Xihe County is located in the southwest of Daliang. Because of its remote location, it has always been relatively poor.

Even so, like other places, Xihe was not spared from the flood.

Ji Chenxing looked at the current situation in Xihe.

Because of its location, Xihe is one of the places mentioned above that does not receive much attention from the court.

This resulted in the fact that, although the flood in Xihe was not the most serious, the number of people who starved to death was no less than in those areas severely affected by the disaster.

With the help of the system, Ji Chenxing took a look at the geographical location of Xihe and gained some understanding of the local customs, soil, water and climate.

In addition to the natural environment, Ji Chenxing also analyzed the situation in Xihe County.

There was originally a local official in the area.

This local official was used to being a local tyrant here, and conferring the title of princess on Ji Chenxing was tantamount to taking advantage of the local official's cake.

In addition, he himself was somewhat discriminatory against women and insisted not to believe that Ji Chenxing's position as princess was obtained through her own efforts, so he looked down on Ji Chenxing even more.

The local official himself was not very well-educated, and he was not satisfied with Ji Chenxing, and it was very obvious.

Including but not limited to spreading bad things about Ji Chenxing in private, withholding rice and flour from the imperial granary for the people, etc.

In his opinion, Xihe County was already remote, and Ji Chenxing was a delicate young lady from the capital. Even if the emperor personally conferred the title of Xihe County Princess on her, there was a high probability that she would never come to Xihe County in her lifetime.

It was also because of this idea that he dared to spread rumors about Ji Chenxing.

Ji Chenxing frowned as he watched.

Is this to make her give up and ruin her reputation in advance?
Ji Chenxing couldn't help but curse in his heart, "How stupid."

This was ancient times, and her status and position were there. Even if she was not welcomed by the locals, so what? She was still the princess of Xihe County.

It’s just that this official has gone too far. Too many people in the county have died over the years.

You know, in ancient times, productivity was greatly affected by manpower.

The more people there are, the easier it is to develop the economy.

The current local officials of Xihe County, in order to be more greedy, have caused the people of Xihe County to live in poverty and starve to death everywhere, which will damage the foundation.

If Ji Chenxing wasn't busy with so many things to do right now, he would definitely go and clean up Xihe immediately.

But fortunately, there is a live broadcast system.

Ji Chenxing had already put the food into the live broadcast store.

There are not only grains, but also some bread, steamed buns, fruits and vegetables and even purified water.

As long as you like Ji Chenxing, you can gain fan points by watching Ji Chenxing’s live broadcast. The fan points you gain can be used to buy food in the live broadcast store.

The live streaming store itself is an invisible warehouse. Hungry people in ancient times did not need to store food. They could just buy as much as they wanted to eat, without having to worry about the food being stolen or spoiled after being left for too long.

However, the live streaming store strictly controls the quantity. The amount each person can buy each day is only enough to eat until they are 50% full. It is very difficult to eat too much or have any leftovers.

But that's just right.

Because in Ji Chenxing's South-to-North Water Diversion Map, the large river that runs through the north and south that needs to be repaired will also pass through Xihe County.

She also made arrangements with Jun Heng. The court would give some grain as a reward to the people who participated in repairing the water diversion river based on the amount of labor they put in, and the more they worked, the more they would get.

This not only ensures the basic survival of the people, but also prevents them from having excessive ideas of getting something for nothing.

With Ji Chenxing's material assistance, I believe the number of people starving to death this year will be much less than in previous years.

While waiting for the elevator and in the elevator, Ji Chenxing got a general idea of ​​the situation in Xihe County.

Her current focus is to audition first, personally participate in the entertainment industry, and then develop Star Entertainment.

Although she can rely on the Ji family now, those things are not hers after all, and it will be difficult to explain if her family members come to the rescue.

After gaining a foothold in this world, she will be able to obtain enough resources to help develop ancient causes.

My thoughts returned to reality. After getting off the elevator, the person walking out of the elevator in front of me was Shen Yufei.

Ji Chenxing didn't have any feelings for Shen Yufei. At best, he was just a psychologically immature child.

But Shen Yufei didn't think so about Ji Chenxing.

Shen Yufei has been holding a grudge ever since Lu Yuzhou refused her visa application last time.

She didn't think she was worse than Ji Chenxing.

Whenever she saw Ji Chenxing, she couldn't help but compare herself with Ji Chenxing.

In terms of appearance, she has two eyes, a nose and a mouth, and her skin is well maintained. She is definitely a beauty.

In terms of family background, Ji Chenxing is the eldest daughter of the Ji family, and she, Shen Yufei, is the eldest daughter of the Shen family, which is not bad at all.

In terms of academic qualifications, Shen Yufei studied abroad and gained a lot of experience, which is a world of difference compared to Ji Chenxing who has never been to school.

At least Shen Yufei herself felt that she was a hundred times stronger than Ji Chenxing.

But why did Lu Yuzhou choose Ji Chenxing instead of her? !

When Shen Yufei saw Ji Chenxing, Ji Chenxing of course saw her as well.

But unlike the internal conflict and entanglement in Shen Yufei's heart, Ji Chenxing just glanced at Shen Yufei indifferently.

Ji Chenxing would not have a hard time with Shen Yufei. After all, Shen Yufei was now under Xingchen Entertainment, and Ji Chenxing still had to rely on Shen Yufei to make money for him. Thinking of business, the first thing Ji Chenxing said when he saw Shen Yufei was:
“Are you ready for your role?”

After taking a look at Shen Yufei, Ji Chenxing asked.

Xingchen assigned Shen Yufei the role of the second female lead.

This role was chosen for Shen Yufei by Ji Chenxing and Gao Yang. The second female lead is the heroine's sister and also has a very important role in the drama.

The younger sister’s character is very good, simple and kind, and is very suitable to be played by the cute Shen Yufei.

And this role is very likable. Although she is the second female lead, if she plays it well, she will definitely be able to

If you have the right image, you are already halfway to success in the interview and will gain a large number of fans.

But Shen Yufei had no idea of ​​Ji Chenxing's good intentions.

Shen Yufei became a little impatient when she heard Ji Chenxing's question.

"My role?" Shen Yufei smiled disdainfully, "You are really nosy. I'm sure I'm not ready for anything to do with you. You should just take care of yourself. Don't let me take the role of the heroine and you won't have anywhere to cry."

Ji Chenxing's eyelids jumped, "Are you planning to interview the female lead?"

It’s not that she is not confident, but Shen Yufei’s appearance is not suitable for the heroine, not to mention that Ji Chenxing is here.

Even Liang Sheng felt that Ji Chenxing’s image was suitable, and as long as Ji Chenxing’s acting skills were not particularly bad, he would definitely pass the audition.

Ji Chenxing's words seemed to step on Shen Yufei's tail. Shen Yufei frowned and raised her voice.

"Why, you can audition for the female lead, but I can't? I'm not worse than you in any way, am I?"

Ji Chenxing looked Shen Yufei up and down, and was about to ask "Are you a little too confident in yourself" when he heard a slightly neutral female voice coming from behind her.

"Just you? You want to audition for the female lead role too? Did you look in the mirror before you came here?"

Ji Chenxing didn't even need to look back to know that the person coming was Zhang Yuexi.

Shen Yufei was also stunned when she saw the person coming.

Shen Yufei had also heard that Zhang Yuexi and Ji Chenxing were not getting along and even had a fight.

Moreover, in Shen Yufei's eyes, Zhang Yuexi is actually a good candidate for the female lead.

If you think about it this way, Zhang Yuexi must be here to audition for the female lead today.

In that case, Zhang Yuexi and Ji Chenxing are enemies, and the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

After dividing the camps in her mind, Shen Yufei could no longer be angry with Zhang Yuexi.

Although Zhang Yuexi started by targeting me, what does that mean? Maybe Zhang Yuexi was just targeting everyone who wanted to audition for the female lead.

Thinking of this, the expression on Shen Yufei's face eased a little.

"You must be Zhang Yuexi from the Lu family, right? I've heard a little bit about you. Nice to meet you."

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Ji Chenxing watched from the side, but Zhang Yuexi didn't have any intention of getting to know Shen Yufei.

Zhang Yuexi did not directly answer Shen Yufei's question, but said, "I advise you to give up the heroine as soon as possible."

Shen Yufei's expression froze for a moment, "Sister, do you think I'm stealing your role?"

Ji Chenxing couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that Shen Yufei didn't understand the current situation at all.

Zhang Yuexi seemed to have heard something funny, and said with some disdain: "Steal a role? You? What role can you steal from me?"

Shen Yufei was confused. "Sister, I'm here to audition for the female lead, but this role doesn't belong to anyone. We're competing fairly. There's no need for you to dislike me because of this."

"I think you're mistaken. I never disliked you because you auditioned for the female lead. Don't always assume the worst of people."

Zhang Yuexi said.

Zhang Yuexi's words made Shen Yufei feel better.

"So, sister, you like me?" Shen Yufei asked.

Although Shen Yufei asked this, she didn't have a definite answer in her heart.

She didn't ask Zhang Yuexi to like her, she just hoped that Zhang Yuexi didn't like Ji Chenxing.

After all, if your enemy has one more friend, you will have one more enemy!

Zhang Yuexi frowned slightly: "When did I say I like you?"

Shen Yufei's expression froze for a moment. "It's okay, sister. It doesn't matter if you don't like me. It's just that during the audition later, I hope you can show your strength and get the role of the female lead!"

Shen Yufei said as she looked at Ji Chenxing.

Although Shen Yufei did not mention Ji Chenxing's name, every sentence she spoke was about Ji Chenxing.

She just wanted to stir up the conflict between Ji Chenxing and Zhang Yuexi again.

Ji Chenxing has the Ji family as his background and has signed a contract with Lu Corporation. With these two resources, as long as Ji Chenxing does not do anything stupid, he will definitely be the next dark horse in the entertainment industry.

Zhang Yuexi has been in the circle for several years. With her family background in martial arts, she was already very popular when she debuted.

Because of his martial arts skills, Zhang Yuexi's fighting scenes are always shot very well, and many directors in the circle like Zhang Yuexi's action scenes.

Although Zhang Yuexi has not yet entered the first-tier list, she is definitely one of the top-ranked artists in the second-tier list.

Shen Yufei is no match for either of these two people.

Only if these two people fight each other can Shen Yufei gain the advantage.

But Shen Yufei is still too young.

She thought she was very smart, but she didn't know that Ji Chenxing had already seen through her little thoughts.

Ji Chenxing gave Zhang Yuexi a look.

Zhang Yuexi is also a smart person. When Ji Chenxing looked at her, she knew what to do.

Even though she had some unpleasant experiences with Ji Chenxing before, overall, Zhang Yuexi knew that Ji Chenxing was not a villain.

They have already known each other for a long time.

Just like Ji Chenxing, she couldn't stand Shen Yufei's smug look.

Zhang Yuexi felt that every minute Shen Yufei showed off was an insult to herself.

"You don't think I'm going to compete with Chen Xing for the role of the leading actress, do you?"

Zhang Yuexi smiled, then looked at Shen Yufei and her smile became even brighter.

She casually put her arm around Ji Chenxing's shoulders and said, "Let me tell you, I'm on her side. Do you think I want to steal her role as the female lead? How is that possible!"

Zhang Yuexi's words made Shen Yufei frown.

This is different from what she heard!

According to her information, Zhang Yuexi and Ji Chenxing should be incompatible and fighting each other!
Moreover, the two of them had made a bet before the fight a few days ago.

After Zhang Yuexi lost to Ji Chenxing, she had to pay Ji Chenxing a lot of compensation. Not only Zhang Yuexi herself, but even the people in the Zhang family were alarmed.

This news cannot be wrong, because just now, Shen Yufei also saw Zhang Yuexi's father Zhang Wuwu. Ji Chenxing asked for so many things from their family, and he must have come here to cause trouble for Ji Chenxing.

If that's the case, the relationship between Ji Chenxing and Zhang Yuexi should be very bad.

Why is Zhang Yuexi standing on Ji Chenxing's side again now?
