"Okay, then let me ask you, who is in charge of Yangcheng's affairs now?"

"Of course it's you, Childe!" The mistake just now made him lose face, and now Gao Lin hurriedly offered a sycophant, but who expected Mo Qian not to eat this and kicked him aside.

"The prefect is naturally the nominal lord of Yangcheng, but now he has just taken office, and many things have not been taken over, in fact, he is still taking the lead of the transfer of Lord Meng Yang, and mentioning Lord Lu Liang, the official affairs of the prison, and the Lord Bai Didi, the official affairs of Changping, as his right-hand men."

Speaking of this, Xue Huan paused and put away the misery just now, "But even if the prefect takes root here, it's best not to fight with these adults."

They not only have strong strength, but also have a deep team in Yangcheng, and the biggest leader in the sale of illicit salt that the adults just said is Pang Qi, the sister-in-law of Mrs. Meng Yang's mother's family, which everyone in Yangcheng knows.

It is conceivable that there are so many tax evasions and tax evasions every year, if there is no secret help from the government, I am afraid that they will not even be able to get out of the wharf, but no one in the entire Yangcheng can touch them, which shows their strong power. ”

Mo Qian nodded secretly, which coincided with his previous conjecture.

"Hmm." Mo Qian pondered for a while, and then asked, "What do you think of the current Yangcheng...... Is it bustling? ”

Even if I walked for a day, I saw a lot of Yangcheng's bright lights, but after experiencing the things in the morning, who knows if it was Xue Huan like that inadvertently said, I don't know how much dirt is hidden behind the prosperity.

"Prosperous, but not prosperous."

"How?"

"Presumably, my lord also found that prosperity belongs to the rich when he visited Yangcheng today, but the vast majority of the people are no different from other places, and even the people who became displaced people due to natural and man-made disasters in the past two years have not been properly resettled.

Of course, this is a common problem in the vast majority of cities in Daqi, but this is still secondary, Yangcheng here, although it seems to be rich in the world, but in the territory of Daqi, it is walking on a single-plank bridge, crumbling.

Further south through Huzhou, although these places are still in the territory of Daqi, but in recent years, the southern rebellion has continued, and the coastal area is actually no longer under the control of Daqi. ”

Xue Huan continued, "Now there are Japanese robbers rampant in the east, and there are continuous incidents in the southeast, although the hinterland behind us is vast, but the officers and soldiers of Daqi are rotten, who can trust them?" If you want to say that Yangcheng is prosperous, where can it be prosperous? ”

"I see that you seem to know a lot, why did you come to me to be a team leader?"

"It's too desperate to get along with them, in fact, it's really not a beauty around you, my lord, and they just throw it at me as a hot potato.

Originally, I wanted to talk about the government office, put away my thoughts, and at least pretend to be a good team leader, but when you asked, I will sell you a favor, but I didn't expect ......"

Xue Huan laughed self-deprecatingly, "I think the reason why the two adults chose to tie me up is because they think I'm honest?" ”

This is the consequence of pretending to be excessive!

"Forehead ......"

Mo Qian and Gao Lin touched their noses in unison, in fact, the two of them thought so, a little embarrassed, but Mo Qian quickly changed the topic.

"By the way, do you know where your illicit salt is shipped to? And who are the customers? ”

Xue Huan's face was completely bitter, "My lord, I'm just a small team leader!" ”

…………

…………

At this time, it was already night, and according to Mo Qian's previous life, it was already past nine o'clock, but the people of Yangcheng, who were rich in nightlife, did not rest so early, and even many night markets had just opened.

But compared with those leisurely people, the people in the government do not have that kind of leisure, especially Meng Yang, who holds the real power of a city.

He sat in his study, in the courtyard of the deep courtyard, no matter how prosperous it was outside, it couldn't make noise to him.

It is really surprising that people suddenly appeared in the study room, which had always been forbidden to outsiders, and there were three of them.

However, knowing their identities, I am not surprised by this situation, two of them are naturally Meng Yang's right-hand men, Lu Liang and Bai Zhidi, and the other is his nephew, the eldest son of the Yangcheng Pang family, and the future head of the family, Pang Qi.

This person is in his thirties, and he looks gentle and polite, but only those who know or have been calculated by him know that this person really has the temperament of eating people and not spitting out bones. “

Lord Meng, the lower officials heard that Mo Qian taught a lesson at the gate of the government today, and it seems that he wants to give us a dismissal! ”

Bai Didi said with a smile, but the glint in his eyes made people a little uncertain. Lu Liang took a sip of tea, with a slight smile.

"Someone else is a new official, these three fires always have to burn, as long as they don't burn us, let him go, and when he finishes burning, he will naturally find that without our support, even if he can mobilize the army, it will be useless, and he will have a choice where to go at that time."

"Hahaha." Meng Yang slapped the table, "I heard that today they also tied up a small team leader of their own yamen for secret questioning, it's really the biggest news in history, Qi'er, what kind of way do you say they are?" ”

"Hey, uncle, you are too worried about this, that team leader is just a stupid goose, he knows, it is estimated that the whole Yangcheng knows, what's the use of asking? What's the way? I don't think it's going to work! Pang Qi sneered.

"Hahaha, Boss Pang's words are really incisive." Bai Diye and Lu Liang couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

After laughing, Meng Yang looked at Pang Qi with some concern, "But Qi'er, if you say it, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, you can't take it lightly!" ”

After all, he is his own nephew, and there are some things that still need to be instructed.

"Save my uncle." Pang Qi said seriously.

"I heard that Mo Qian and the others went to the dock today, presumably he also guessed that our main channel for transporting illicit salt is water transportation, you must be more careful, it is best not to show your face in front of him."

Speaking of this, Pang Qi had a bitter face, "Uncle, I can't say for sure, it snowed especially heavily last year, the rivers were frozen, and the carriages couldn't transport salt over.

Now that spring has finally begun, there has already been a backlog of winter in the south, and the deposit has already been collected there, and all the salt must be transported over within ten days, how can you not be in a hurry?

If not, they will have to come and get it themselves, and then it will be a big problem! ”

"Alas, that's also a problem, you concentrate on solving it, uncle try to help you cover."

"Thank you, uncle." Pang Qi said.
