Xu County.

Ying Ziye arrived here with his army.

What I saw and heard along the way was that in Liting township, the people of Li lived and worked in peace and contentment.

Looking at Xu County, compared with Yingchuan County.

The situation in Xu County, which is only one county, is even better than that of Yingchuan County.

Ying Ziye thought to himself: "Perhaps it is because it is adjacent to Chen County and has not been oppressed, or because the local officials are benevolent and care for the people..."

Ying Ziye led his army to the county seat of Xu County, and local officials came to greet him.

The county magistrate, county magistrate, and county lieutenant came up with all the officials under their command and greeted him respectfully.

"I will pay my respects to the Eighth Young Master!"

The county magistrate bowed his hands and said with a soft smile: "We have prepared a banquet to wash away the dust of the Eighth Young Master, and also invite the Eighth Young Master to show his respect."

"Um!"

Ying Ziye nodded slightly and said, "Yeah!"

He ordered his troops to station themselves and take a rest.

Ying Ziye immediately followed the county magistrate and others with Jian Jiu and Hou Qing.

In the county government office, the county magistrate had already asked the cook to arrange a banquet of food and wine.

There is no extravagance, but some delicacies and game, as well as some local specialties and home-cooked dishes.

Braised pheasant, braised pork ribs, etc.

The wine is a whole grain wine, rich and mellow, with a grain flavor.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

Ying Ziye smiled and said: "Through my journey, I saw that the people of Xu County are living and working in peace and contentment."

"It shows that you are doing quite well in government affairs."

The county magistrate sighed helplessly and said: "I am ashamed. I just did something practical for the people and fulfilled my duty."

"It's just that the Eighth Young Master doesn't know something. We have encountered difficulties recently. A large number of counterfeit coins have appeared in the county recently!"

"But we have no way to solve the case, so now the county government is under tremendous pressure."

The emergence of counterfeit coins resulted in too much money and the inability to solve the case. In order to maintain a balance, the county magistrate and others could only backlog these counterfeit coins in the government.

"oh?"

Ying Ziye looked surprised and looked thoughtful.

"After dinner later, take me to check it out."

"Here!"

The county magistrate responded respectfully.

After the banquet was over, Ying Ziye asked the county magistrate to lead the way and went to the government warehouse to check.

In the warehouse, large wooden boxes were piled up.

When he opened it, Ying Ziye reached out and grabbed a handful of coins.

On the surface, there is no difference between these coins, but upon closer inspection, these coins are mixed with a lot of impurities.

There were also some large amounts of gold that were also mixed with a lot of impurities. Ying Ziye's eyes were cold and he shouted with a hint of anger: "This is someone who is eroding the interests of the Qin Empire!"

Hearing this, the county magistrate and others nodded and said, "That's exactly what made us so anxious, and because we couldn't investigate and solve the case, we had to ask for help when the Eighth Young Master came."

"I already know!"

Ying Ziye nodded, looked deeply at the counterfeit coins in his hands, and ordered everyone to take some counterfeit coins, take some of them back to the inn and observe them carefully.

Night falls.

Under dusk.

In the inn, next to the window sill of the room.

Ying Ziye sat on the seat with his hands on the table, playing with a large number of counterfeit coins in front of him.

Master Xiaomeng, Jian Jiu, Hou Qing, Yuan Tiangang, Meng Tian and others were also there, twisting the counterfeit coins in their hands and lost in thought.

Looking at these things, Ying Ziye came up with a plan. He looked at Hou Qing and asked with a smile, "Do you want to be handsome?"

When Hou Qing heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "Sir, what can you do?"

Ying Ziye chuckled softly and said, "I will hand over all the fake money to you, and I will take you to the government office tomorrow to get some of the fake money. Then you can go to major casinos and spend it freely."

Hou Qing looked puzzled, showed doubts in his eyes, and said, "This is indeed very handsome, but it is indeed a waste of time. Don't you still want to investigate the case?"

Ying Ziye smiled and said, "A casino is a place where people are mixed. Only in this way can we find clues."

Hou Qing was speechless, rolled his eyes, and said, "You are trying to use me as a shield!"

Ying Ziye smiled and said, "But it's really cool to squander it like this. If you don't agree, forget it."

"...Okay, I promise you!"

Hou Qing said helplessly.

The next day.

The sky is bright.

Ying Ziye took Hou Qing to the government office early in the morning.

"I need to transfer some money, but I only need fake coins. You guys can put them in bags."

"Sir, if you want money, take it as you please."

The county magistrate and officials were puzzled and asked: "Why not use real money instead of counterfeit money?"

Ying Ziye smiled and said, "We will go to major casinos with counterfeit money to spend money."

"Casinos are places where people are mixed, and the leakage of a large amount of counterfeit money will definitely attract some people's attention."

"Only in this way can we detect clues."

I see!

When the county magistrate and several officials heard this, they realized what they were saying. They immediately showed admiration and exclaimed: "The Eighth Young Master's move is really a brilliant plan!"

They had to admire him for luring the snake out of its hole.

After leaving the government office, we were on the street.

Hou Qing is dressed in gold and silver, and has a lot of coins wrapped around his waist and arms. It can be said that he is truly rich!

Not only that, but there were also several elite soldiers of the Qin Dynasty who followed Hou Qing in disguise and carrying bags of coins.

The passers-by and people around him looked shocked and their eyes showed envy.

"Why did this man take so much money to the streets!"

"Who is he? He is so arrogant!"

"It's too rich. How much money do you get?"

"They say money should not be exposed, but this person actually did the opposite!"

Hou Qing raised his head high and did not look at the people around him. He was enjoying himself very much.

He even hummed a little tune from time to time, and his steps became much lighter.

Until Hou Qing's eyes were fixed on a gambling house that was not big or small, but was extremely lively!

Lucky Casino!

"This is it!"

Hou Qing smiled slightly and stepped in casually.

Almost as soon as he entered the casino, everyone's eyes were focused on him!

It’s not for anything else, it’s just that Hou Qing is so rich! ! !

After all, no matter how rich you are, you don’t have money hanging around you.

Every move he makes is full of arrogance and aura!
