"Cough~cough~cough!"

The old craftsman almost choked to death on his saliva.

Hey guys, do you plan to use your bedroom as a yard?

"Sir, what size bed do you want?"

Wang Tao didn't care about this, he wished Ye Qing could stay in bed all his life.

So as not to affect them.

"We would like to put some thought into customizing some bedding and furniture for you."

"You can try your best."

Ye Qing did not refuse this time.

After all, it is Yunhai County that is poor, not the gentry officials in Yunhai County.

"For sleeping, the bigger the bed, the more comfortable it is. It should be half the size of the bedroom."

"Hiss~ The emperor's dragon bed is probably not that big."

The shock passed in a flash, and a smile appeared on Wang Tao's face.

It seemed that Ye Qing did not lie to them. This Lord Ye was here to enjoy themselves.

The hanging heart fell to the ground.

"Don't worry, sir. Lieutenant Zhou and I will find the best carpenters and sewing craftsmen in Yunhai County to make a batch of furniture that will satisfy your needs."

"Carpenter? You can't be a carpenter. The wooden bed is easy to loosen. Find a stonemason and make a stone bed."

"My lord, what you said makes sense. I'll take note of it."

Wang Tao bowed and accepted the order.

From the beginning to the end, the dialogue between the two refreshed the craftsmen’s understanding.

With such a group of officials in Yunhai County, how can there be any hope!

But Wang Tao doesn't care about this.

He dared to murder the county magistrate, so why should he care about the opinions of some ordinary people?

"You go home quickly and prepare tools and materials. I order you to build a bedroom as quickly as possible according to Master Ye's request."

"I...I'll do my best."

The old craftsman and others did not dare to refuse, let alone speak out their thoughts.

"etc!"

Ye Qing called to the craftsman who was about to leave.

"How much money does a bedroom like this cost?"

"Sir, the bedroom you requested is much larger than the county government hall. It is expected to cost one thousand taels of silver."

The old craftsman quoted a minimum price.

Hearing this, Ye Qing made some calculations in his mind.

One hundred copper coins can be exchanged for one tael of silver, and one thousand taels of silver is equivalent to 100,000 copper coins.

It is equivalent to about 100,000 yuan in the previous life.

100,000 yuan to build a luxurious bedroom of 100 square meters is simply not a good deal.

"I will give you two thousand taels of silver, and you are not allowed to cut corners."

With that said, Ye Qing turned around and took out a large wooden box from the house.

Boom!

The wooden box fell heavily to the ground.

In an instant, golden light overflowed!

A chest full of gold and silver.

Take out one thousand taels of silver from it and give it to the old craftsman.

"Pay one thousand first, and settle the rest after completion. By the way, if anyone dares to take advantage of this money, just come to me."

A golden shadow flashed past.

Xiao Jin rushed out of the guest room where food and belongings were piled, and squatted obediently behind Ye Qing.

"My pet is not a vegetarian."

"Woo~"

Xiao Jin protested in a low voice.

Meat is available to everyone, but raw meat is unpalatable and must be cooked well.

"Sir, you... why don't you let me... Mr. Jin, continue to rest!"

Wang Tao gritted his teeth and did not take a step back.

It wasn't that he didn't want to retreat, but that the craftsmen were too quick and all ran behind him.

He couldn't squeeze.

"With me and Lieutenant Zhou here, I guarantee that no one will dare to take advantage of this batch of money."

"Well, Xiaojin, please come back and help me take care of my belongings and food. I'll go out and bring you delicious food when I come back."

As soon as he heard that Ye Qing was delicious, Xiao Jin immediately licked Ye Qing's palm to show his favor.

Then, with elegant leopard steps, he pushed the wooden box and walked back to the guest room.

"Wang Xiancheng, call two smarter detectives to follow me around the city."

"Your Majesty, take your orders!"

Wang Tao walked out of the back office quickly.

Once Ye Qing is gone, who can guarantee that the terrifying golden leopard won't steal it?

He doesn’t want to be a snack.

The craftsmen also ran out.

After a while, two detectives in regular uniforms walked into the back office.

"I have a humble job, Lu Dali. He is currently the head catcher in Yunhai County. I have met Mr. Ye."

"Nie Lang, a low-ranking officer, currently serves as a detective in Yunhai County. I have met Mr. Ye."

The two of them bowed politely.

Although the powerful dragon of the county magistrate suppressed the two local snakes of King Zhou, he had no foundation or connections.

Before they figure out their personalities, as catchers and agents, they are right to do more and talk less.

"Come with me for a walk in the city, and then go check on Miss Qin's condition."

Ye Qing walked out of the back office with some broken silver.

Without the companion of pet Xiaojin, the street becomes more popular.

His eyes scanned the surroundings, searching for possible targets.

Adults with numb eyes and shabby clothes are the first to be eliminated.

The child in ragged clothes, dirty and unrecognizable, subverted his understanding of children.

It turns out that not every child is a little princess or a little prince.

"My Yunhai County is too poor."

Ye Qing couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

The three of them walked out of the busiest main street.

The ground paved with bluestone turned into a dirt road.

Several beggars were lying half-dead on the street corner, waiting for charity.

Footsteps are heard.

They opened their eyes lazily.

The next moment, they jumped up from the ground like rabbits.

"You three gentlemen, we haven't eaten for three days. Poor, have mercy on us!"

"Get away! Is the person I am accompanying you someone you can offend?"

Before Ye Qing could say anything, Nie Lang stepped forward and kicked each of them.

"Ouch! It turns out to be Captain Nie. The boys didn't see clearly. Let's get out of here!"

The expressions of several beggars changed, and they turned around and ran away without saying a few words of flattery.

"Sir, please don't pity them."

Nie Lang turned around, his cold expression replaced by flattery.

"They are like a skin plaster. Once it is stuck on, it cannot be thrown away or shake off. Moreover, the hands and feet are not clean."

"You did well!"

Ye Qing took out a tael of silver and threw it to Nie Lang.

Money is easy to come by, and it doesn’t hurt to spend it.

"By the way, why didn't I see the bookstore?"

"Thank you, sir, for the reward."

Nie Lang caught the money and suddenly felt that the new county magistrate seemed quite good.

More generous than the two kings of Zhou.

"My lord, the only people in Yunhai County who can afford to read are the Zhou Wang family and some members of wealthy families. They will not come to the street to buy books."

"Be careful what you say! Don't say anything nonsense."

Lu Baotou interrupted Nie Lang.

Then, apologize softly.

"Don't blame me, sir. You are not afraid of the Zhou family, but we cannot afford to offend them. I wonder what you are asking the bookstore for?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as you don't harm my interests..."

Ye Qing chuckled and stated his purpose.

"It turns out that you want to buy some good paper and ink."

The two of them, Lu Baotou, looked at each other helplessly.

Not to mention good paper and ink, even ordinary paper and ink, the two of them don't have it.

"Sir, you should go directly to Wang County Cheng to ask for it. Apart from him, no one else in Yunhai County will have these."

"Those officials who were exiled, aren't they?"

While talking, Ye Qing and the others had arrived in the north of the city.

The houses here are more dilapidated and the environment is worse.

"They may have it, but most likely they will sell it for money to buy water and food..."

"Shh!"

Ye Qing signaled Lu Baotou not to speak for the time being.

Take the lead and turn into an alley.

I saw a group of dirty children gathered in front of a dilapidated courtyard.

Sounds of ridicule were coming from their mouths.

"Ugly! Ugly!..."
