Yan Qixiao looked at Jade and said, "Jia Fuyin seems not very happy. Does it make you feel sad that the people have food to eat?"
Jia Dedao was really angry. Although he was very well-educated, who could withstand Yan Qi's repeated schemes? If it were anyone else, he would have been pissed to death, right?
Jia Dedao pondered for a long time before pretending to be happy: "Haha, I am so happy that the people can eat. I am the parents of the people. It is my responsibility and obligation to make the people eat. .Common people, do you think so?"
Someone in the crowd yelled something.
"Fart, it was Yan Qi who made us eat. You don't have that ability."
"You are not our parent officer, you are Tao Donghai's parent officer."
"Yes, yes, we are hungry. Tao Donghai's house is full of food, but you don't coordinate and sell us some at a low price. You are a piece of shit."
…
Taking advantage of the large number of people, I don't know who said it, but everyone was shouting and yelling.
Juddao became angry: "Who said that? Who is scolding me? Stand up, stand up, and see how I punish you."
"shut up!"
Zhao Qing suddenly turned his back and stared at Judd with a livid face: "As a governor, don't you know that water can carry a boat and also capsize it? Although the people are rude in their words, they are precise in their words. They are right. , you failed to get food for the people, and it is your fault that the people are hungry."
"This governor cannot get food, so he is scolded by the people, which is what he deserves. But you still protect the Tao family and do nothing, letting the people starve. Aren't you a mediocre official? What's wrong with the people scolding you? ?”
No matter how arrogant Juade was, he did not dare to act arrogantly in front of Zhao Qing, so he had to behave obediently like a dog with his tail between his legs: "The governor taught you a very good lesson. I will definitely learn from it and work for the benefit of the people."
"snort!"
Zhao Qing snorted coldly: "Why don't you go back to the Yamen and reflect on it?"
"yes!"
Judd lowered his eyebrows and bent down to leave.
"Hey, Jia Fuyin, I... what should I do? I have lost so much..."
Tao Donghai was so anxious that he had no master.
This time, Yan Qi was badly hurt.
Yan Qi took the opportunity to shout: "Fellow fellows, the Tao family has made a lot of money selling grain. You guys go to the Tao family bank to exchange the money. After passing this village, there is no such store."
There were many middle-level wealthy businessmen in the crowd. After hearing what Yan Qi said, they thought it made sense and ran to Tao's Bank to redeem their money.
Tao Bank has just stabilized its position, so how could it be expected that Yan Qi would do this again?
Before Yan Qi's 20 million taels of silver are returned, the situation of Tao Bank will definitely be unstable. If there is any trouble, there will be danger of losing everything.
Now, Yan Qi's words were like igniting a small flame in a prairie fire, and it enlarged.
If one thing is not handled well, Tao Bank will go bankrupt.
"Yan Qi, you, you are cunning and cunning. You are not a human being. You are not a human being."
Yan Qi pouted: "You are so big-hearted, and you are still in the mood to curse? Didn't you see that everyone went to Tao Bank to exchange money?"
Depend on!
Tao Donghai jumped up and scolded his mother, but the situation did not allow him to be wordy, so he got on the sedan chair and went straight to the bank.
The crowd gradually dispersed.
Zhao Qing sent his own soldiers to escort the grain back to Suzhou to meet the urgent need.
At nightfall.
Zhao Qing invited Yan Qi to sit down in the post house.
"Master Yan, we have achieved a great victory this time. Jia Dedao, Tao Donghai and others have become turtles in a urn and will not be able to survive for long."
Yan Qi thought for a while: "The governor must not underestimate the enemy. Don't you know that where good fortune lies, misfortune lies ahead?"
Zhao Qing pondered for a long time: "You mean, Juddao has some dirty tricks."
Yan Qidao: "Think about it, if Jia Dedao has been operating in Jinling for ten years, can he not have some influence?"
Zhao Qing: "What forces are you referring to?"
Yan Qi snorted coldly: "There is a branch of the White Lotus Sect, which belongs to the Black Lotus lineage. Its home base is at Weishan Lake. The Black Lotus lineage deceives and deceives people, deceives people's hearts, openly gathers people to make trouble, and even kills and steals goods, humiliates women, and abducts women. Children, after all, do all kinds of bad things and use all possible means.”
"But the problem is that Jia Dedao has been running Jinling for ten years and spent countless silver coins from the court. Not only was he unable to catch all the Black Lotus, he even made the Black Lotus grow stronger, so much so that the Black Lotus Sect was preaching openly in the middle of the busy city a few days ago. , is this normal?”
"A few days ago, Hei Lian openly made trouble, resisted the court, and oppressed the people. Di Renfeng wanted to mobilize troops to suppress Hei Lian, but Jia Dedao flatly refused. Do you think it's normal? If Leng Youxue hadn't borrowed troops to suppress Hei Lian last time, There is really no way for the Lian lineage to eliminate this big cancer of Black Lotus."
"Master Governor, if you connect these things, you can find that Judd is secretly powerful. He just doesn't dare to use it and uses it with caution. But when the critical moment comes, he will definitely use it."
Zhao Qing frowned: "You mean, Jia Dedao can control Black Lotus behind his back?"
Yan Qidao: "It is not necessarily possible to control the Black Lotus, but at least it is a win-win relationship. The last time the Black Lotus was annihilated, although they achieved a complete victory, the leaders of the Black Lotus lineage managed to escape because of seclusion and practice, so not all of them were eliminated. .”
"Now, the situation is getting more and more unfavorable for Judd. With his insidiousness and viciousness, he will never sit back and wait for death. It is only natural for him to secretly attack us. Therefore, we must deal with it carefully."
Zhao Qing snorted: "Master Yan, don't worry too much. I will immediately use the Fubing Division to control the entire Jinling to prevent any accidents."
Yan Qi shook his head: "The soldiers in the Fubing Department are not good. They have dual control and listen more to the court. And Prime Minister Yang has very strong control over the Ministry of War. There is no guarantee that someone in the Fubing Department will inform, so it's better not to use it."
Zhao Qing was a little embarrassed: "What should I do? I can only mobilize people from the Fubing Department, which is good. But when I get to the Ministry of Rites, let alone the Fubing Department, I won't be able to control even one soldier."
Yan Qi chuckled: "Don't worry, you don't have anyone, I do."
Zhao Qing was confused: "Do you have someone? Who?"
Yan Qi blinked: "The governor has forgotten that I have recruited many local warriors in Tianjiazhuang. They all come from poor backgrounds and just took the opportunity to show off their skills."
"Bullshit!"
Zhao Qing made a rare swear word: "They are just improvising and are not responsible at all. If you do this, you are just joking."
Yan Qi shook his head: "Who said they are incapable of taking responsibility? Don't you know that if a tiger leads a group of sheep, the sheep will turn into ferocious tigers?"
Zhao Qing leaned forward: "Yan Qi, are you kidding me?"
Yan Qi was serious for once: "Do you think I'm joking?"
Zhao Qing pondered for a while: "Okay, I listen to you, so you don't need me to do anything?"
"Need, big need!"
"explain!"
Yan Qi stretched out his hand: "Money, a local warrior also needs money to fight a war. Money can make ghosts grind. The king of hell is not short of hungry soldiers, don't you think so?"
Zhao Qing rolled his eyes: "I know I want money."
