Chapter 66 Overt Investigation and Covert Investigation III

When he had finished interrogating the merchants, he ordered them to be pressed into prison, and he went out of the guard and went home. When he arrived outside the kitchen, he saw that Miao was busy preparing food in the kitchen, so he gently pushed open the door and slammed the door with his backhand. this

A movement alarmed Miao, and when he turned around and saw that it was him, his face turned red with shame, and he bowed his head and said, "In broad daylight, what ......door are you forking?"

didn't finish speaking, but there was an exclamation, and the person was already surrounded by Yang Chengzu, and then there was a fat mouth. When the kiss was enough, Yang Chengzu smiled and said: "If you don't want me to close the door, I'll open the door now, I'm afraid that you will be afraid that the coral will see it, and you won't live or die." ”

Miao Xiugu has a weak temperament and has no opinions, and not long after moving in, she was looked at by Yang Chengzu, and it became a good thing to be half-coaxed and half-strong. Although she knew that this kind of thing should not be done, she did not react violently except for begging for a few forgiveness and crying again afterwards. 、

It's just that she refuses to disclose this relationship, and she deliberately avoids Yang Chengzu, the more so, the more interested Yang Chengzu is to find her. Seeing that it was still early, he hugged her, put his hand into her clothes, and asked, "I've been staying at Coral and Sister Xian these days, do you think I don't want to?" ”

Xiu Gu begged with that characteristic crying voice: "Don't ...... It's daytime. If I am seen, I will not survive, at most until it gets dark, you will come to me secretly, just don't let the coral see it, whatever. ”

Yang Chengzu let go of his hand, "Actually, we have done everything, why do we still keep that position?" I have the final say in this family, you can make me a small one, there is nothing wrong, I don't think the coral may object. I want you two to be with me. ”

Seeing that her eyes were red again, she didn't make a sound, so she had to say, "Forget it, I don't want you to be like this now, just wait until you figure it out." Our family is having a good time now, how can I let you do this rough work when I go back and buy a few girls to work? ”

As soon as he said this, Miao's eyes were a little red, "In the past, the dead ghost was in Japan, and I had a good meal when I cooked late, only you felt sorry for me." But our identity...... I don't know anything, I just cook, do laundry, do some housework, and make me feel like I'm not idle. You just have money, you have to save it, buy a girl or something, that's a matter of old men, we can't afford it. ”

The two of them kept their hands warm for a while, and Miao didn't dare to resist, so he had to let him be light, just begging to leave the fairy thing for the evening. Yang Chengzu was shy and scared while fiddling with her, and asked, "Good Xiugu, you are our housekeeper's mother-in-law, how much food does our family have now." ”

"Grain?" Xiu Gu was still immersed in the afterglow of being teased by him, and she didn't react for a while, and only came back after a while

"Our family has a lot of grain, and now there is half a jar of coarse grain, more than 30 catties of fine grain, enough for our family to eat for half a month."

"Half a month? Not enough, this little bit of food is not enough. I'll ask them to send us ten stones of millet noodles and one stone of fine grain tomorrow. ”

In the Ming Dynasty, one stone was now one hundred and twenty catties, and ten stones were enough for their family to eat for nearly a year. Miao Xiugu said: "What are you buying so much grain for, could it be that the price of grain is going to rise?" ”

"Clever." Yang Chengzu kissed her on the face, "It's just that the price of food is going to rise." This time, many victims from other places poured in, how could food come down cheaply? Now it is just the beginning, and everyone does not realize that the price of grain is going to rise, and when they do, it will not be easy to save grain. We have to save some of it at home, and we have to save some of it in the teahouse, after all, if Ruxian wants to operate snacks in the teahouse, he will also need raw materials at that time. I'll go to Jiu Ye's to eat tonight, and when I come back at night, I'll look for you. ”

His call to find you reminded Xiu Gu of the absurd scene of the two of them in the past few days, half expecting and half shy, only to feel that his legs were weak, and he almost collapsed on the ground. muttered "We shouldn't be like this...... I'm the mother of Coral. ”

But the voice of this voice could not even be heard by herself, and there was no deterrent effect at all. Yang Chengzu kissed her on the lips again, and only said, "Leave the door for me." And he departed.

It's just that he didn't notice that outside the kitchen, Liu Shi was so shocked that he covered his mouth with one hand, hid in the corner, and said secretly: God, how can there be such a serious matter, if the news is leaked, how can this be good. Ancestor ...... The taste of the ancestors is also really ......

When he arrived at Zhao Jiuxiong's wharf, he saw that Zhao Jiuxiong's mood seemed to be exceptionally smooth, and he was humming a minor tune there, and a pair of iron galls in his hands were clattering and rubbing. Two young women, who looked no more than a teenager, carefully pounded his shoulders for him.

Seeing that it was Yang Chengzu coming, Zhao Jiuxiong laughed and said, "Chengzu, you are here!" Don't leave today anyway, I invite you to eat in the proud building in the county seat, and then go to Xiangmanlou, and the two of us will go to drink flower wine. I heard that there are a few new goods from Jiuniang, and I promise to keep them for you. ”

"Thank you Ninth Master for your kindness, do you seem to be very happy?"

"Rejoice, it's no wonder I'm not happy, so many refugees have come here at once, my business is easy to do. Usually carrying a sack is three pennies, but now, it has been reduced to two sacks. After a few days, there will be more people, and then it will be a penny and a sack, and this silver will make a lot of money. Look at it, are these two girls watery and spiritual? It's only fourteen, and I haven't even done it, guess what, I took sixty catties of grain in exchange, and in the past, there was no such price. If I am not satisfied with the people they serve, I will sell them to Xiangmanlou, and rely on the two of them, and we will earn back the money for today's meal. ”

Yang Chengzu knew that he earned not only this little coolie money, but also the number of refugees, no matter how much relief he had, there were still people who couldn't survive and needed to sell their sons and daughters.

Zhao Jiuxiong controls the population of Huaxian County, and when the time comes, it will be a huge benefit. And among the people who fled, it is inevitable that there are some strong people and even some martial arts, which can be used by him to be a cheap thug and a dead soldier. For such a person, the famine is actually a great thing, and as long as it does not affect him, the greater the famine, the better.

He asked: "Ninth Master, now I have a business, which is a joint venture with the county master, I wonder if you are interested in getting involved?" ”

Zhao Jiuxiong's eyes lit up, he raised his hand, several subordinates and the two girls withdrew, Zhao Jiuxiong whispered: "What, since you are joining forces with the county master, could it be that there is some official business of the court to be handed over?" ”

"It's really official business, Ninth Master. Have you read the post? ”

"No, I don't know how to read." Zhao Jiuxiong shook his head, more than ninety percent of his illiterates at this age were illiterate, and there was nothing to be ashamed of for him not knowing words. "I know there's a gang of people who are sticking things all over the street, but I don't know what he's posting? But I know where these people come from. ”

"You know?"

"Yes, that's the Longmen inspection, the relationship between Jin Changling and Jin Daxiangtou, how can I not know? They took a boat from Huguang to Huaxian, some went to Weihui Fucheng, and some went elsewhere, in short, Henan Bafu, there are them everywhere, this is the order of Jin Daxiang, let us take more care of it, saying that it is our own brother. Bah, I don't even know them, how did I become my own brother? At first glance, it's Jin Daxiangtou's own relationship, but they messed up that thing and got into trouble? ”

Let's say: Tomorrow there is something to do during the day, and there is no automatic release function in Zongheng, and tomorrow's three watches are at night, please understand.
