Leng Youxue was overjoyed when she heard this, and an excited smile appeared on Leng Mei's face: "Great, drain the water in the pond immediately and bring up the private salt box. Move faster, there are only two left in total. The time of the hour, no matter how late it is, it will be too late.”
Yan Qi looked at Leng Youxue's smiling face and couldn't help but murmur in a low voice: "Looking back, you can smile with all your beauty, the pink and white in the Sixth Palace have no color."
Leng Youxue's cheeks were red, she gave Yan Qi a charming look, and spat: "Is my smile so pretty? You don't need to praise me, you big bad guy."
However, it was very useful in my heart.
This bad guy is a good poet. But then again, am I really that pretty when I smile? Have you captivated this big bad guy?
Yan Qi sighed faintly: "I helped you solve the case and didn't even say a word of thanks, but also spoke coldly to me. I'm so sad."
Leng Youxue looked embarrassed and pursed her red lips tightly. After holding it in for a long time, she lowered her head and said Nunuo: "Okay, Yan Qi, thank you for helping me solve a big case."
Yan Qi nodded: "Is it enough to just say thank you?"
Leng Youxue raised her pink and attractive mouth: "Then what else do you want?"
Yan Qi winked: "Why don't you... pledge yourself to me?"
Leng Youxue was startled and jumped away in a hurry. She was flustered and confused. Her beautiful eyes were half embarrassed and half shy. She glared at Yan Qi hatefully and waved her sword fiercely: "Bad guy, what do you mean? What, stop your wishful thinking, I will never like you, a big bad guy."
Yan Qi pouted: "I'm just joking with you, do you take it seriously? To tell you the truth, you are so fierce, not gentle at all, not cute at all, no one will like you. Haha!"
"Big bad guy, you're so annoying. Hmph!"
This sentence made Leng Youxue angry. She felt frustrated and turned around to leave. She no longer wanted to deal with Yan Qi. She leaned against the big tree angrily and thought to herself.
"Am I so ungrateful? I don't want you to like me. Even if all the men in the world are dead, I won't like you either."
Yan Qi looked at the sad Leng Youxue from the side and thought that her angry look was really cute. Looking around, she found that she was still somewhat gentle when she was depressed.
"Brother Qi, I'm back."
Huzi squeezed in from the outside, panting, sweating profusely, and said in frustration: "Brother Qi, it still doesn't work. People don't trust me. I've been talking sincerely for so long, but it's all in vain."
Yan Qi comforted Hu Zi: "It's okay. I'll go out in a while and take care of the horse until it succeeds. Besides, there might be a big job coming soon."
Huzi's eyes lit up: "Okay, I like the big ones."
An hour later, fifty boxes of private salt were brought up.
Ten boxes were arranged in five rows.
Each box is six feet square and weighs two thousand kilograms. It is very spectacular.
The iron hand finished counting and reported to Leng Youxue: "Master Captor, there are fifty boxes of private salt in total, totaling fifty tons, priced in silver, totaling two hundred thousand taels of silver."
When everyone heard this exaggerated number, they all despised it.
"Huang Cheng is actually a corrupt official. Now everyone has gained the stolen goods. What else is there to say? He must be brought to justice."
"The people who suffer from embezzlement and price hikes are the ones who get hurt. This person who suffered a thousand knives deserves to die."
…
Everyone cursed.
Huang Cheng also woke up from his confusion, but his legs were weak and he couldn't stand up. His face was pale and his appearance was haggard.
Listening to everyone's constant insults at him, he lowered his head and never dared to raise it again, but deep down in his heart, there was still a glimmer of hope.
Leng Youxue pointed at the illicit salt and asked Huang Cheng: "Everyone has gained the stolen goods. Huang Cheng, what else do you have to say? You corrupt official, I must arrest you and escort you to the capital for questioning."
Huang Cheng broke the jar and laughed loudly: "Haha, Leng Youxue, Leng Youxue, even if you find the secret salt, so what? You have calculated everything, but in the end you can't do anything to me."
Leng Youxue hummed: "Why are you laughing?"
Huang Cheng's triangular eyes locked on Leng Youxue sinisterly: "I laugh at you for not being able to stop me."
"Why?"
"Why? Don't you understand yet?"
Huang Cheng smiled extraordinarily wildly: "Don't you know that in another hour, the search warrant will be completely invalid? In other words, if the stolen goods cannot be transported back to the Yamen within an hour, you cannot sentence me."
"Haha, what if I can't become an official? I have plenty of money, I can still spend it freely, Leng Youxue, can you do anything to me?"
Listening to Huang Cheng's arrogant smile, Leng Youxue raised her eyebrows angrily: "Why are you so arrogant? In one hour, I will definitely be able to drag my son back to the Yamen. You can't escape your crime."
Huang Cheng dismissed it: "To put it lightly, how can you transport the private salt back to the Yamen in an hour? What kind of luck do you use? From here to the Yamen, it takes more than half an hour. But now you have no manpower and no carriage, so you just hope How are you four or five people going to transport the illegal salt? Are you carrying it on your shoulders?"
"You..." Leng Youxue was dumbfounded.
It's not that she didn't consider the problem of transporting stolen goods, but Liu Yasi was in control of the Yamen's carriages and horses, and Liu Yasi obviously didn't dare to offend Huang Cheng, so he sent out all the carriages and horses.
Nowadays, although Leng Youxue has found the illegal salt, she is unable to transport the illegal salt back to the Yamen and classify it as stolen property. Isn't this a huge irony?
"What should I do? What should I do?"
Leng Youxue stamped her feet anxiously and begged the onlookers: "Folks, if you have carriages and horses, can you rent them? I am willing to pay a high price for them! Don't worry, I will rent them in my own name, and I will not squander everyone's money. .”
Common people generally cannot afford carriages and horses, and there are not many who have carriages and horses.
Leng Youxue asked for help, but very few responded.
Huang Cheng suddenly stood up, pointed at everyone and shouted: "Let me see who of you dares to lend the carriage to Leng Youxue! Let me tell you, I have a lot of money, and my family is as powerful as the sky. Who dares to cooperate with Leng Youxue? Our family's People will kill him. My brother-in-law is a high-ranking official in Jinling. I don’t think any of you would dare? Be careful that I destroy your family."
Everyone was so frightened that they didn't say a word.
Leng Youxue looked at everyone's cowering appearance and knew something was wrong. She pursed her red lips tightly, almost despairing in her heart.
"Hahaha!"
Huang Cheng looked at Leng Youxue proudly and smiled wildly: "Did you see it, Leng Youxue? No one is willing to lend you a carriage or horse. You won't be able to transport the salt to the Yamen within an hour. You Despair, are you sad? Are you depressed? Haha, I am so happy, how could I go to jail? Impossible..."
Just when Huang Cheng was arrogantly proud, Yan Qi stood up and looked at Huang Cheng with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm willing to rent the carriage and horse to Captor Leng."
"you?"
Huang Cheng gritted his teeth: "What's the use of you alone? Can only one truck transport fifty tons of illegal salt?"
Yan Qi laughed loudly: "I'll tell you some bad news. I'm in the logistics business. I have a hundred vehicles. Guess, can I transport these illegal salts? Can I put you in jail?"
"Ah You……"
After hearing Yan Qi's words, Huang Cheng felt as if a sharp sword had been stabbed between his eyebrows. The pain pierced his brain. He roared and fainted.
