Chapter 18 Mayor Sun

The next day, I found out that the mayor's surname was Sun, and there was a large compound on the northwest side of the cross street that was the town government. When they came to the town government, a group of people set up carriages in the yard, and the noise was very lively.

"Where did you collect your grain yesterday?" A kid asked.

"In Qili Village, this year's grain harvest is quite smooth, and I harvested 6,000 catties yesterday." A kid said.

"Fortunately, it hasn't risen this year, and if it rises again, it will be difficult to collect grain!"

"Isn't it, 200 catties per mu is already overwhelming! No matter how much it rises, people are resisting! ”

"Anti-crossing? Who dares! I didn't see that the warehouses were all guarded by soldiers, this group of soldiers is no different from bandits, they can't beat the devils and the people? ”

"I heard that last year, Mayor Sun conspired with the army's Wang Company Commander to increase the grain, saying that there were originally 100 catties of military grain per mu, and 100 catties of imperial grain were added privately by the two of them!"

"I've heard about it too, and I didn't hear that the gang of soldiers said that the company commander is going to get rich again this year!"

Hearing these small cangs, the public is afraid of regaining the two sides, and Mayor Sun and the company commander can rob it!

I made up my mind that Kogura raised his feet and walked inside, but when he arrived at the door of the main house, he was stopped by a kid at the door.

"Stop! What do you do? ”

"At the Xiamancang Grain Station Zhao Mancang, I came to visit Mayor Sun. Trouble to report! ”

"From the grain station? Wait for the "Saying that the boy is in, and he will come out in a while" Mayor let you in. ”

When I entered the door, I saw an old man about fifty years old and a middle-aged man in military uniform sitting on the sofa. Xiao Cang stepped forward and said, "The mayor of the town is good, the chief is fortunate that Zhao Mancang has come to pay a visit." ”

"You're from the grain station?"

"Yes, the Mancang Grain Station was opened by a kid, and it just opened last month, please take care of it!"

"Oh, the wheat is down, what price are you going to offer?"

"Today I came to ask the mayor for advice, the market is a dime a catty, and the many introduced by the mayor are calculated according to a dime. What does the mayor think? ”

"Oh?" The mayor of the town glanced at Kogura deeply: "Are you quite clever?" Now the wheat has to be dried. In a few days, a large number of people will sell wheat, how much can you eat? ”

"Just the more the merrier, I want to make more money when I open a store."

"Well, after two days, the wheat will be dried and I will read it to the villagers," said the mayor.

Out of the town government, Xiaocang thought about whether to go to Tianma Village, but then gave up, and said that everything was ready.

A few days later, the shopkeeper came back, harvested the wheat and went back to work. After eating in the store in the evening, Kokura went out with a full box, and the two came to the outside of a compound in the south of the town, and found a place where no one was around, and the two went to the roof.

This is where the soldiers collect and store grain, and Kokura looks at the terrain from the rooftop. The courtyard is very large, and there are soldiers guarding the door of the wing, the main house, and the courtyard gate. In the west wing, several houses lived as soldiers, and the sound of shaking dice came from time to time in the room. There are sacks stacked in the east wing and on the east side of the courtyard, which should be full of grain. The two quietly came to the roof of the main house, uncovered a tile, and saw that the lights were bright inside, and the four of them were playing mahjong.

"Nijo, this is good."

"Which of your bad luck? Just don't win, be a house! ”

"It's still our company commander who has good luck, and he wins more and loses less."

"Let's have fun while we come out to collect food, and we won't be idle when we go back. These two days are scattered to play, and after a while, Lichun Courtyard will walk, count me in. In two days, you have to be clever for me to transport food! ”

"Okay, if you want to mix well, follow the company commander!"

"Don't worry about transporting grain, it's not the first time the brothers have done it, first transport military grain to the troops, and then transport imperial grain to the county seat. are all familiar with the way, and the company commander is still not at ease? ”

"This year, the imperial grain will stop in the town to see how much the full warehouse grain station can eat."

When the two returned to the store, they kept thinking about how to deal with it.
