There is still no news from Yang Yun's side, and all the people who went out to buy food returned empty-handed. In such a situation, there is no good way for Ju Yuanguang, who has always been resourceful.

The day passed quickly, and it was the middle of the night. The officers of the Yang County Government were once again concentrated in the warehouse. But this time, their carts were not filled with grain, some were just empty grain bags, and the officials of the county government had nothing to do. Because there is no longer enough grain in the warehouse to fill these bags.

Looking at the errands, pushing one or two empty cars out of the warehouse, Zhong Wentao, who had been hiding in the hut next to the county office, immediately came to his senses.

"Gang Leader Zhao, you immediately send someone to follow them and see what they do next? If there's news, someone will come back and report it to me right away. ”

"Brother Guo, you let your people guard the gate of the county seat. As soon as their grain arrived at the gate of the city, they managed to open their sacks. ”

"Patriarch Yang, Second Sister Wei, and Master Liu, your people are all scattered among the people, and when the time comes, you will incite the people to make trouble, the more troublesome the better, it is best to bring people to smash their county office!" This is Zhong Wentao has obviously been planning for a long time, and he quickly made arrangements.

Speaking of these errand officers who went out from the county office, they pushed small carts outside the city. Soon came to a small river outside the city and stopped at a remote river beach. Seeing that no one was found, he put the grains of sand from the river beach into a pocket containing food.

These servants thought that what they were doing was unaware, but they knew that their actions had already been seen by some men in black who had been following them and hiding in the woods. These men in black discovered the secret in the grain bag, and immediately left quietly, and quickly ran back to the county seat to report to his master.

"Haha, I knew they had no food, so they had to come up with this way to fool the people. This is a shot in the foot, everyone is preparing according to the plan, and this time we are going to put on a good show for everyone. Zhong Wentao, who heard the news, was overjoyed, and hurriedly issued one order after another.

On this morning, the gate of Yang County was extremely lively, and thousands of people gathered around the gate of the county seat, ready to see the grain transported back from outside the county seat.

Why are there so many people at the gate of the county? Of course, this is the masterpiece of Yang Hong and others, who have done a lot of work to prepare for many people in the county to see this good drama with their own eyes.

Yang Hong and others personally mixed in the crowd, waiting for the arrival of the grain transportation team. But at this moment, it has been three poles in the sun, according to the law of the past, these servants who sent back the grain have already returned, but today has come to this time, and they have not seen their shadows, Yang Hong's heart is a little uneasy.

"Old Liu, why haven't they come yet? Nothing will happen! Yang Hong asked the old man surnamed Liu beside him.

"Probably not, maybe they have a lot of food today, and they are walking slowly?" The old man surnamed Liu picked up the cigarette pouch and took a puff, and said with some uncertainty.

Towards noon, a group of men pushing small carts appeared outside the city gates. This time was more than an hour later than a few days ago, and seeing this team transporting grain, the anxious Yang Hong and others finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

In addition to the time when the grain was shipped much later than in the past, the amount of grain shipped in recent days was also much higher than in the previous two days.

Yang Hong and the others, who were mixed in the crowd, were already waiting impatiently. They immediately sprang into action and quietly commanded

The men under him are ready to act according to the original plan.

Seeing that the grain transportation team had approached the gate of Yang County, Yao Xia, the county commander of Yang County, and some important officials in the county government finally showed a smile on their faces. They hurriedly walked forward, ready to welcome the grain delivery team back to the county office.

"How can I look at the pockets in this car that don't look like food?"

"I heard that this morning there were people by the creek outside the city who saw these servants putting sand in their pockets and passing them off as food."

"Yes! My brother saw this with his own eyes this morning chopping wood by the creek. ”

"These corrupt officials have squandered the grain of the county government, and now they are using these tricks to deceive everyone, we will stop them and ask them for an explanation."

At the instigation of well-intentioned people, the people outside the city gate began to be emotional. They stepped forward one after another, blocking the way for the grain convoy to return to the county office.

"What are you doing? Want to rebel? The leading military commander in the grain transport team stood up and loudly reprimanded the people who blocked the way.

"We're going to check, what's in these bags?" Someone shouted loudly in the crowd.

"Of course this grain bag contains grain, what else can there be?" The general who was transporting the grain said again.

"You are talking nonsense, we ordinary people are looking forward to the delivery of grain back every day, and many people have spontaneously gone out to the county border to wait, and they have not seen any team transporting grain, so you have to deceive everyone here." Another voice in the crowd spoke.

"There are so many roads into my Yang County, and the time is so long every day. It's very likely that you didn't meet it, or you missed it. The military general who took the lead said, but his tone was obviously unconfident.

"Humph! We don't believe you officials, you open your pockets, we have to check if there is food in your pockets? Then another man from among the people shouted.

"Go, go, don't make trouble, we haven't slept all night. The brothers were eager to get their errands over as soon as possible so that they could go back and sleep beautifully. The general waved his hand forward and told everyone to get out of the way.

Some people in the crowd subconsciously took a few steps back, wanting to get out of the way and let them pass.

"If you don't check with us, you don't want to go over. You officials, just want to fool us people, and we will never fall for you again. ”

Someone in the crowd shouted again, and as soon as the man's voice fell, many voices came from the side. They all urged these servants to open the sacks.

The shouts of these men had apparently had an effect, and many of the people who had already retreated, became suspicious of the servants, and they stopped retreating. At the same time, some people who had been watching from the sidelines also joined the ranks of blocking the road.

"You indiscriminately block the county government office, this is called gathering crowds to make trouble, everyone disperses quickly, otherwise, they will all be arrested and have a lawsuit." At this time, a group of officials from the county government pushed aside the crowd and walked in, led by Yao Xia, the county commander of Yang County.

Although Yao Xia came to Yang County for a short time, he did a lot of good things for the people, so he had a high prestige among the people.

"Don't listen to him, my brother saw it with his own eyes. They put sand in their pockets of grain. Then someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone turned their heads to see that it was a short, dark-skinned man who spoke.

Listening to the words of the man in short clothes, the people around my father began to doubt the letter again. Once again, they stopped retreating.

"Du Heizi, don't talk nonsense and spread rumors, but you're going to eat prison!" At this time, among the officials of Yang County, someone knew this short and stout man and said it to him loudly.

Listening to this official's words, a trace of hesitation flashed in Du Heizi's eyes, and his eyes looked in one direction. Someone in the distance apparently gave him confidence, and he suddenly gained courage, jumped to his feet, and said:

"My brother has seen with his own eyes, and you have the ability to open the grain bag. Let's see for ourselves, if that weren't the case, I'd rather be captured by you. ”

Du Heizi's remarks further raised doubts about the authenticity of the grain. As a result, more and more people shouted for the servants to open the grain bags.

"Are you sure you have to open the grain bag today?" Yao Xia looked around at everyone present with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"You just open the grain bag, and you won't lose anything? It's obviously problematic that you're so secretive and unwilling to let everyone see it. Then someone in the crowd shouted.

"It seems that if we don't open the grain bag today, everyone won't let us go, so okay, I'll go and open the bag for everyone personally." After Yao Xia finished speaking, he slowly walked towards the cart containing the grain.

Seeing that the mystery was about to be revealed, everyone present fell silent. One by one, they held their breath, stretched their necks, opened their eyes wide, and focused their gaze on Yao Xia, who was walking towards the grain bag.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yao Xia came to a small car and slowly untied the rope tied to the grain bag with his only right hand.

Immediately after, Yao Xia reached into the grain bag and grabbed a handful of things from inside. Spread out his hands, just spin around in place, and show what he has in his hands to everyone present.

"It's soybeans, it's really grain in the bag, it seems that we have wronged the county government." At this time, someone whispered in the crowd.

"It must be that only this bag contains grain, and the rest is sand." At this moment, there was a sudden shout from the crowd.

Yao Xia put the soybeans in his hand into the grain bag, raised his head, and glanced at all the people present with a cold gaze, but he didn't find anyone who spoke.

"These bags of grain are here, who doesn't believe it? Go up and open these bags yourself and see if there is food inside? Yao Xia saw the people around him and said loudly.

At this time, the expression on Yao Xia's face had changed, and his expression was much more confident than just now.

Looking at Yao Xia's expression, the people around him lost their courage, and no one came out for a long time.

"You, you, you, and you...... Come here, in front of everyone, to verify whether these bags contain grain or not. "No one came up for a long time, and Yao Xia pointed at more than a dozen people at random in the field.

Seeing that the dozen or so people who were called were slowly walking in the direction of the grain bag, Yang Hong and the others in the crowd smelled a trace of unease.

A few people whispered a few words in the crowd, made some gestures to the side, and then quietly withdrew from the crowd.

With the departure of Yang Hong and the others, there were many people in the crowd, and the people who had just made the most trouble quietly slipped out of the crowd one by one and disappeared into the street.
