Wang Buquan rubbed his hands, he didn't want to waste an opportunity to make friends with important ministers of the court.

In his opinion, Li Canghai's idea of daring to fight Luoyang Mansion to provide disaster relief grain was all because he had the backing of Dali Siqing behind him, otherwise he would have eaten the courage of an ambitious leopard to dare to do such a thing.

"You can think clearly, if this is discovered, you will be killed." Li Canghai stared at the two of them and said seriously.

Wang Buquan laughed, and he said proudly: "I can't hide it, the entire Zhengyang City is in the hands of my Wang, even if there is a hint of trouble, I don't want to escape from my control, otherwise where would I have the courage to sell disaster relief food?" ”

"But I heard that there is a new county magistrate in Zhengyang County, will he find out about this?" Li Canghai deliberately frowned and hesitated.

"Hmph, just a county order, I don't care about it yet. Brother Li is relieved, the county order has not yet returned to Luoyang, so there is no need to worry about this matter. Even if he finds out, he is not afraid, he dares to report this matter to the court, and he does it directly! A hint of cold murderous intent flashed in Wang Buquan's eyes, and he said coldly.

Li Canghai's eyebrows shook involuntarily, and he muttered: "Since County Lieutenant Wang said so, then I have nothing to worry about." ”

Seeing this, Zuo Hongji had a smile on his face, he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Brother Li, we will take you to the granary now, please!" ”

Li Canghai nodded, and then followed Zuo Hongji and walked to the backyard.

Chang Feng squinted his eyes, looking at Wang Buquan's back, he seemed to understand something, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a sneer. Out of the back door of the left house, along a narrow alley, it took about a quarter of an hour for everyone to come to a dilapidated house.

The house was in ruins, several earthen houses collapsed, and all the thatch was pressed on the beams, covering most of the half-collapsed houses.

Wang Buquan walked under the half-collapsed beams and swept away the thatch on the ground, revealing a plank.

He reached out and knocked on the plank three long and two short, only to hear a creak, and the plank was lifted from the bottom up.

"Your Excellency, are you here?" Under the wooden plank was a secret passage, and from inside a man crawled out and saluted Wang Buquan.

Wang Buquan nodded slightly to the man, then said with his right hand, "Brother Li, please!" ”

Li Canghai's expression was indifferent, he lifted his hem, greeted Chang Feng, and followed Wang Buquan down to the secret passage.

Di Qing and Fan Er stayed in the Zuo Mansion, which made him worry a lot less, and he couldn't fully believe Wang Buquan, so he called Chang Feng to go together.

The secret passage is wide and wide, and torches are placed every ten steps to illuminate the secret passage.

Everyone walked dozens of meters in the secret passage, and then the eyes suddenly opened up.

In front of him was a huge cave, with small hill-like sacks piled up in the cave, and dozens of men in strong suits armed with steel knives patrolled back and forth in the cave.

"I've seen the county captain." Seeing that the king was not all coming, those people bowed down one after another, and their words were extremely respectful.

Wang Buquan waved his hand casually, and said proudly to Li Canghai: "Brother Li, these are disaster relief food. ”

Li Canghai narrowed his eyes, he glanced at those powerful men, and decisively gave up his previous thoughts.

He originally planned that as long as he found evidence that Wang Buquan had colluded with profiteers to sell disaster relief grain, he would thoroughly investigate the two of them as a county magistrate, so that all the grain could be confiscated and used in the hands of the victims.

However, when he came here and saw the layout, he immediately realized that what he had thought before was not feasible at all.

In order to keep these relief grains, Wang Buquan can be said to have made sufficient preparations, not to mention anything else, just guarding the strong man here, it is not something he can handle.

From this point, it can be seen that Wang Buquan's power in Zhengyang City is far greater than he imagined.

Chang Feng is right, Wang Buquan is the county magistrate here.

For this kind of person, it is necessary to grasp the key point and kill with one blow, if the blow fails, it will stimulate the ferocity of the other party, and if he bites back, the gain outweighs the loss.

"Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles. The only way to do this is to start with Zuo Hongji and disintegrate the two step by step. Li Canghai glanced at Zuo Hongji, and suddenly had a plan in his heart.

Walking to the grain piles, Li Canghai took a serious look, these grain bags were written with the word 'disaster relief', and each bag had an official seal on it, which was indeed disaster relief grain.

"Brother Li, these are disaster relief food, with my protection, you can rest assured, no one will want to find out about me." Wang Buquan patted a bag of grain and said proudly.

Li Canghai nodded, and he praised: "I have heard that Zhengyang County is the world of Wang County Lieutenant, but now when I see it, it is really so, admire, admire!" ”

Wang Buquan was very proud, he said confidently: "Of course, I have been in operation in Zhengyang County for many years to have such results, and there will be absolutely no mistakes when the goods are handed over to me." ”

Li Canghai looked at the grain, and his brows suddenly furrowed.

Zuo Hongji saw that his expression was different, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Li, with County Lieutenant Wang here, what else do you have to worry about?" ”

"Brother Zuo, you are also a businessman, haven't you noticed some problems?" Li Canghai asked rhetorically.

Zuo Hongji was suddenly a little stunned, he looked at Wang Buquan, and said puzzledly: "Except for some moldy food, there are no other problems with these relief grains." ”

Li Canghai shook his head and said, "It's not a problem of disaster relief grain, but a problem of operation. On my way into the city, I met many people fleeing to other places, but there were very few refugees in Zhengyang City. No matter how much food you have hoarded, if no one buys it, it will only become moldy. ”

"The people who fled to other places are untouchables who can't even take out half a copper, and let them go, but the refugees in Zhengyang City are all rich masters, and these are our customers." Wang Buquan said disappreciatively.

"Wrong, very wrong." Li Canghai said noncommittally to his words.

The two looked at him in surprise, not understanding the meaning of his words.

Li Canghai grabbed a handful of rice and said, "The disaster relief grain was originally used to help the victims, but the quality was already poor, and with the long-term backlog, there was already a lot of mold. How could a rich man be willing to buy this food? The food is really aimed at ordinary people. ”

Wang Buquan understood what he meant, and muttered, "You mean to sell these to ordinary victims? Those people can't afford it! ”

"It's not for sale, it's for giving." Li Canghai smiled slightly and said.

These words surprised the two, and Wang Buquan frowned, "What do you mean?" ”

Li Canghai already had a plan in his heart, all the disaster relief food was in their hands, and it was obviously impossible to forcibly snatch it, so he could only try his best to let them take out some food to help the victims in front of him.
