Liu Lang took a bite of porridge, sandwiched a piece of pickled radish, and chewed it on the ground: "Isn't it?" Why can't it be right? ”

Xiao Qimei sat down at the dining table: "Yesterday, I checked the recent warehouse account book and found that the current grain storage in the granary is much less than the balance number on the account book. ”

Liu Lang put down the bowl and said, "In other words, some of the grain was swallowed by others?" ”

Xiao Qimei looked around and saw that there was no one, so she nodded solemnly: "I hope not, but I can't find any other reasonable reason other than this explanation." ”

Liu Lang touched his chin: "Then did you tell the old man?" ”

Xiao Qimei shook her head: "It's just my speculation, there is no evidence now, I don't dare to talk nonsense." After all, my uncle was in charge of the granary before, and I just came back. In case I let my uncle know, I thought I would give him small shoes to wear. ”

"Moreover, my uncle is just a name in the granary, and the supervisor is someone else."

Liu Lang asked casually: "Who is it?" ”

"Lin Chunping, that is, Zhao Feng's good look."

"Is that her?"

Liu Lang was a little surprised: "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Xiao Qimei shrugged her shoulders: "I can only check in secret, see what is going on, and then make plans." ”

Liu Lang stripped off the porridge in two bites: "I support you spiritually and leave." ”

Xiao Qimei glanced at him: "I thought you were going to help, but as a result, that's it?" ”

Liu Lang smiled and said, "If you want me to help you beat someone, you can squeak it." But if you want me to help investigate, no, no, Lao Liu, I can't do this kind of meticulous work. ”

Waving his hand, he called Wang Yingxue, and Liu Lang got out of the car and went straight to the car repair shop.

When it was almost noon, Luo Hao came and saw that the cab of the truck was equipped with barbed wire, so that even if the living corpse pounced, it would not be able to get into the cab for a while.

Liu Lang was shirtless, doing welding work, and installing a ramming angle on the front of the car with a few guys, apparently planning to arm the truck to the teeth.

"Okay, Brother Liu, I didn't expect you to do this job." Luo Hao said from the bottom of his heart, Liu Lang really gave him too many surprises. Especially the hand that drove away the living corpse yesterday really shocked him.

Liu Lang put down his tools, asked Zheng Wu to take over him, and poured himself a glass of water to drink: "Just mess with it, it's not a big deal." By the way, let me ask you something, is there a vegetable garden on Ningfu Street? ”

Luo Hao was stunned, shook his head and said, "No, that is Zhao Feng's territory, I don't know if I'm in the past, but I haven't heard that they are engaged in a vegetable garden, what's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing, just ask casually."

Liu Lang remembered that last night, the skinny monkey rode a small three-wheeler, as if he came from the other side of the granary.

There is no vegetable garden on Ningfu Street, why is the skinny monkey lying, could it be that the barrel is not filled with night incense?

This matter is very suspicious, after all, the director of the granary is Zhao Feng's good friend. I can't figure out that the grain that was lost in the granary is now on Ningfu Street!

Suddenly, Liu Lang heard a commotion outside, and when he walked out of the door to take a look, he saw dozens of people shouting in the direction of the Xiao family's old house.

Luo Hao ran out, his face changed slightly, and he didn't care about saying hello to Liu Lang, so he chased after him.

Liu Lang squinted his eyes and turned back to continue his work. These people are probably going to trouble the Xiao family, but there shouldn't be anything wrong. Take 10,000 steps back, even if they want to make trouble, if the Xiao family can't stop it, they can simply let others do the work of managing the ancient city.

This may be a good thing for the Xiao family. Of course, this is just the idea of a small citizen named Liu, and he is not interested in knowing how the Xiao family will deal with it.

He just wanted to quickly modify the truck, and once it was confirmed that Tang Ming was in the Red Star Paper Mill tomorrow, Lao Liu would be able to say goodbye to the ancient city.

The granary of the ancient city.

Xiao Qimei was checking the grain delivery records of these days in the office, and when footsteps sounded, Luo Hao ran in: "Miss, go home and take a look, something happened." ”

Xiao Qimei raised her head violently, but she was also calm, put the account book in the drawer and locked it, and then said, "Let's go, let's take a look." ”

In front of Xiao's house on the top of Xiaowolong Mountain, dozens of people surrounded the gate of the old house, shouting to see Xiao Zhengfeng.

When Xiao Qimei arrived, she could barely squeeze in, but Luo Hao called a few guys and opened a passage for her to come out.

Xiao Qimei came to the gate smoothly, she raised her hand and signaled everyone to be quiet.

After the crowd quieted down, she cleared her throat and said, "Everyone, my grandfather is old, if you have anything, tell me the same." ”

A middle-aged woman with a thick body and a spicy appearance stood up and said, "Miss Xiao, can you really represent the Xiao family?" If you want me to see, it's better to invite Mrs. Xiao out, otherwise, Mr. Xiao Dong will also be successful. As for you..."

She shook her head, looking disappointing.

Xiao Qimei smiled faintly: "My surname is Xiao, why can't I represent the Xiao family." If you don't want to talk to me, please come back. The Xiao family doesn't owe you anything, on the contrary, they do their best to solve problems for everyone, I hope you don't take the kindness of the Xiao family as a good bully! ”

The middle-aged woman was speechless, Xiao Qimei said this without being arrogant or humble, she couldn't find an excuse for the seizure, so she had to snort and retreat to the crowd.

"Miss Xiao, since this is the case, then I will say a few words on behalf of everyone." A middle-aged man with glasses squeezed out of the crowd, with a white face and beard, small eyes and thin lips, pretending to cough dryly, "That's the case, we want to ask." Before, Mrs. Xiao told everyone that due to the limited food, he would drink porridge for breakfast and dinner, but he was guaranteed to have a dry meal to eat at noon, so that everyone could have the strength to work. ”

"But why did the lunch at noon become gruel, the porridge was so thin, it was almost like boiled water, this is different from what the old lady promised, right?"

Xiao Qimei said indifferently: "I asked the kitchen to change to thin porridge, and I am not afraid to tell everyone that there is not much surplus grain in the granary now, and there is no way to be the same as before, I hope everyone can understand." ”

The middle-aged woman jumped out and said, "No, I went to the granary last week to help, and there is still a lot of food in the warehouse, and there are many bags of rice alone." It's only been a week, how can you be in a hurry so quickly, don't you be eaten by rats, right? ”

After speaking, she looked at the door of Xiao Mansion vigorously, and it was clear that there was something in her words.

Xiao Qimei laughed: "This eldest sister, do you want to say that our Xiao family is secretly deducting everyone's food, right?" ”

The middle-aged woman pouted: "I didn't say that. ”

Xiao Qi said in a loud voice: "Please think about it, if our Xiao family wants to deduct food, if we don't open the city gate at the beginning, and we don't save you when we die, then it's okay?" ”

"With the food collected in the city, how can our Xiao family and the original residents of the city last for a month or two."

"But how do we do it? We let the big guys take refuge in the inner city, and set up a joint defense team to maintain order and try to keep everyone alive. But now, you suspect our Xiao family, don't you think it's very contradictory? ”

Xiao Qimei paused, her eyes swept over the audience, and then she continued: "If you are not at ease, then this is good, I will open the granary now." Then we distributed the food equally, and everyone took care of their own affairs, but after the food was eaten, the Xiao family would not care about your food and clothing. ”

"What do you think of this method?"
