"Fathers, elders and sisters, please leave. Let's all go back to our homes. I'll give this officer some time to clean up the affairs."
"This is my promise to you!"
Liu Xun's impassioned speech made many simple people shed tears and stood there for a long time, unwilling to leave.
Fang Zheng looked a little impatient.
I originally thought about trapping Liu Xun multiple times on the road.
Unexpectedly, this bitch actually made me feel disgusted.
Thinking of going to inspect the warehouse early, Fang Zheng walked to Liu Xun and said, "Let's all leave. Mr. Liu still has official duties."
When everyone heard other sounds, they couldn't help but look sideways.
When they saw it was a young man, with hands full of gold rings and dressed in fine clothes, they couldn't help but look at him with disdain.
What kind of corrupt official is this? Look at Mr. Liu wearing patches!
"............"
Fang Zheng suddenly realized when he looked at everyone's eyes.
Damn it, I actually made such a stupid mistake!
Liu Xun glanced at Fang Zhengyi with a smile. The young man was too young after all, so he jumped out to support me.
Looking at the people who were still reluctant to leave, Liu Xun said with a straight face: "Let's go, let's go. I do still have official duties."
With just this order, the people around him began to disperse sparsely.
"Master Liu really loves the people like his own son, which makes the lower officials ashamed." Fang Zhengyi said lightly sarcastically.
Liu Xun was not ashamed, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Haha, it's nothing, it's just the way of being an official."
"Come on, let's go to the granary."
During the second half of the journey, the two of them rode straight to the granary in silence.
The grain manager of the granary was still taking inventory of the newly arrived grain in the yard. He immediately knelt down when he saw Liu Xun coming.
"I've met Mr. Liu! I've missed you from afar. Why didn't you notify me of your arrival?"
Liu Xun said: "This time I am accompanying the newly arrived judge Fang Zheng."
"It just so happens that it's your first time to meet him."
"I've met Mr. Fang."
Fang Zheng nodded, walked to a pile of rice bags, and asked, "When was this rice delivered?"
The grain chief replied hurriedly: "This is the grain that was delivered from the capital a few days ago."
"Beijing? How many days have it been? Are you still taking stock?"
The grain manager looked at Fang Zhengyi and then at Liu Xun. Seeing Liu Xun wink at him, he replied: "Sir... we are short of manpower, so the inventory is a little slow."
Fang Zheng didn't say anything and started walking around.
The granary in Jianjiang City is located on the ground. The overall shape looks like a huge courtyard, with grain packed in sacks and neatly stacked together.
After walking around, Fang Zheng saw a rice spy. He quickly stepped forward and picked up the rice spy. He walked back to the grain chief and inserted it into the rice bag.
This meter probe is similar to a Luoyang shovel, except that it is longer than a screwdriver and has grooves from beginning to end.
Just plug and pull out the rice from the rice bag.
Fang Zhengyi looked at the rice carefully.
Good condition, no issues.
Liu Xun came forward and asked, "How do you feel?"
"Not bad, but I didn't look carefully enough." Fangzheng said as he walked towards the pile of grain that had been inventoried in the warehouse.
Then I inserted a few more rice bags, but there was no problem.
Liu Xun looked behind him and couldn't help but smile.
But before he could laugh for long, he saw Fang Zhengyi climbed to the top of the rice pile and walked in with his body bent.
Liu Xun frowned: "Master Fang, it's dangerous inside, be careful!"
"It's okay!" Fang Zhengyi's voice came from inside.
When it reached the deepest point, Detective Mi still had no problem inserting it.
Fang Zheng frowned. It seemed that this old guy still didn't trust him.
Before he came, Bai Rui could find a lot of moldy rice and old rice through casual inspection, but now they were hidden so deeply.
But it's useless no matter how deep you hide it, those fake and inferior goods are definitely still in the warehouse.
Otherwise, a caring person can find out the missing number by checking from the outside.
Fang Zheng first moved away the top rice bag and dug down one bag at a time.
After only moving three bags, the color of the rice the spy brought out changed!
The dark brown rice has a strange smell, found it!
Fang Zheng grinned, grabbed a handful, turned around and walked out slowly.
Liu Xun listened to the sounds coming from inside and stood waiting below with a gloomy expression. The head of grain was swallowing his saliva next to him.
Although he already stood in the same camp as Fang Zhengyi, he still felt uneasy and did not dare to fully confess.
This kid is so greedy. If he finds out there is something wrong with the granary again, won't he be punished for it?
I used to think that he was just a dandy with no fingers in the water, but I didn't expect that he could get in so deep!
Fang Zhengyi had already poked his head out, but he was not in a hurry to get down. Instead, he sat directly on the pile of rice.
Watching Liu Xun stretch out his right hand and slowly spread his fingers.
The moldy rice slid down the palm of my hand and fell to the ground...
Liu Xun didn't panic. The grain chief panicked first and quietly pulled Liu Xun's sleeves twice.
Liu Xun waved his hand: "Go, let everyone go out, Mr. Fang and I have something to say."
The grain manager breathed a sigh of relief and ran away quickly.
As soon as Fang Zheng sat on it, he sighed and said, "Master Liu, you don't regard your subordinate as a friend."
"If you privately collect more food from the people, your subordinates can ignore it. After all, they are not included in the list."
"But...it's an official matter, and I can't turn a blind eye."
"If the hungry people outside the city start a riot and break into the granary to find out what's going on here, even if I have ten heads, I won't be able to save it."
Liu Xun smiled when he heard this: "What did Mr. Fang say? Come down first. It's dangerous up there."
Fang Zheng jumped down, walked towards Liu Xun, and looked directly at him: "Master Liu, please explain, how should it end?"
Liu Xun asked: "What do you think, Lord Fang?"
Fang Zhengyi smiled slightly and said in a low voice: "I need more money! Give me enough fifty thousand taels, but we have an agreement first. What happened in the granary cannot be discovered by outsiders. If something happens, it will be useless no matter how much money I have." .”
"I don't know...how will Mr. Liu solve the counterfeit goods in the granary?"
When he heard that Fang Zhengyi wanted to increase the price to fifty thousand taels, Liu Xun's eyes suddenly flashed with a fierce light.
"Oh, fifty thousand taels... Mr. Fang is really a lion, but I agreed!"
"As for the moldy rice in the granary, you don't have to worry. Today you and I are really honest and honest. Fortunately, I will tell you everything."
As he spoke, Liu Xun looked around and leaned close to Fang Zheng's ear.
"The day after tomorrow, there will be a fight between the Free Sect and the Tieyi Sect outside the city, with victims of the disaster participating. The officers and soldiers will come out to exterminate the rebels, and the Tieyi Sect's rebels will take the opportunity to set fire to the warehouse..."
"At that time... Lord Fang can lead the troops to wipe out the remaining bandits, which will be a great achievement! I will report the truth truthfully!"
"Based on your relationship with the prince, at least it won't be a problem for you to be transferred back to Beijing!"
"When Master Fang returns to the capital with fifty thousand taels of silver, wouldn't it be better to be able to return to the prince's side? What do you think?"
Fang Zheng frowned: "How can you control the fight between the two religions? Besides, if a large-scale fight does occur and General Jianjiang is involved, how will it end?"
"Is it possible that the commander-in-chief is also one of ours?"
Liu Xun smiled bitterly: "Don't you even understand this when you are always in the capital? Your Majesty doesn't care about anything in the world, but you only have military power, and you will never relax one bit!"
"Your Majesty's abilities are beyond your imagination. All the local commanders are firmly controlled by Your Majesty. It can be said that they are all his confidants who have followed His Majesty through the mountains of corpses and seas of blood."
"If the commander-in-chief finds out about the granary, we will be the first to lose our heads!"
"But you don't have to worry, we will prepare in advance and we will be much faster than them!"
"After the granary is burned down, we can say whatever we want!"
"As for those sects, I have my own arrangements, so you don't have to think too much."
Hearing what he said, Fang Zhengyi felt relieved.
In this way, there is no need to worry about doing it yourself. If there is a conflict with those generals, it will be really troublesome.
Everyone on my side is talented, so I can't give in on this kind of thing.
Then Fang Zhengyi continued to ask: "Mr. Liu, is it just the two of us for such a big thing..."
"Of course not!" Liu Xun's smile became even brighter.
"Now that you are one of our own, tomorrow the Japanese government will call the people involved in this matter to the Yongqing Building not far from the government office to discuss important matters. At that time, you will be assigned some people to go out of the city to suppress the thieves and perform meritorious service! This way. ...You should feel relieved!”
Fang Zheng suddenly became excited and stepped forward to hold Liu Xun's hand.
"My parents are the ones who gave birth to me, Master Liu is the one who knows me!"
Damn it!
Liu Xun looked at his hand being held, suddenly trembled all over, and then quickly broke away his hands.
He laughed sarcastically: "Master Fang, do you want to see it again?"
"No! I won't watch! Mr. Liu will be with you today, so let's go back first."
...........
It was night, Liu Xun was in the study, and Wei Shan stood beside him with a serious expression.
Finally, I couldn't help but ask: "Master...could it be that the money was really given directly to Fang Zhengyi? That's fifty thousand taels!"
Liu Xun sneered. The candlelight flickered uncertainly, and the atmosphere on his face seemed a bit mysterious.
"Oh, give it to him. How long can he keep the money?"
"A mere male favorite of the prince. He wants too much and knows too much. No matter what, this person cannot let him return to the capital."
"However, although this person is a villain, his thoughts are somewhat delicate. I am afraid that he will be worried and have other thoughts. I will take him to meet my people tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow, you stay with him and kill him during the chaos. If he dies without any evidence, the money will still be ours."
"My wise master..."
...........
In the Chenghu Painted Boat, Fang Zheng was talking to everyone about what happened during the day, and he was in a very happy mood.
With a face full of pride, he said: "You all listen carefully. Tomorrow Bai Rui will lead the way and lead a group of good people to occupy Yongqing Building for me. Be quiet."
"Zhang Biao, Zhou Tie and everything else will go!"
"When Master, I break the cup as a sign of honor, I will break into the house and tie up those bitches!"
"The leader, Liu Xun, has his limbs broken! Don't give him any chance to escape! Anyone who dares to flutter and break his legs directly will not need to discuss it. This operation can only succeed and cannot fail. Do you understand?"
"understood!!"
