Now that the truth is revealed, let's just say, how could it have disappeared after collecting so much grain and not seeing them transport it outside?

Master Lin couldn't find anything in several warehouses, and the same was true for the few wealthy merchants he had befriended, and the grain they bought really seemed to have grown wings and flew away.

As a result, they took advantage of the loophole, put the grain in the house, and opened it, if something happened, the yamen went in to investigate, and it could also be transferred in time, so that it was not easy to find evidence, but it was really cunning enough.

And he also chose to keep the grain in the houses not far from the yamen, isn't it dark under the lights?

Indeed, the places they investigated before were far away from the yamen, who knew that Master Lin would be so bold this time, choosing a place so close to the yamen, they were really almost fooled by him.

Siqi breathed a sigh of relief, he finally knew how he hid the grain, and now he just needed to think of a way to let him move the grain out by himself, or let the yamen have a chance to find the grain.

Tiankuo smiled and said, "It's simple, after all, he bought it back at a high price, he can't just watch the money go down the drain, right?" If these things can't be used, and the money can't be recovered in the end, won't it cost him his life? ”

The husband and wife smiled slyly, and roughly had an idea, just waiting to implement it.

Sort out this matter, I can finally sleep well tonight, I have been worried for days, Tiankuo's psychological pressure is huge, I can breathe a little relief this night, and I will sleep until dawn, not to mention how comfortable it is.

Siqi woke up before him, knowing that he was tired these days, he didn't wake him up, and went out lightly.

Since he knew what kind of trick Master Lin was doing, Tiankuo didn't startle the snake, and asked people to immediately search for things, but secretly deployed, wanting to collect this batch of grain to the yamen openly.

Master Lin still doesn't know that the place where he put his food has been discovered, but he is still terrified every day, for fear that something will go wrong in this matter.

It is estimated that it will not be long before there will be displaced people here, and at that time, the price of grain will double, and he only needs to wait until then to sell the grain, so that he can make a lot of money at once.

Before that, the place where the grain was put must not be discovered, and he had to call those few stewards every day and instruct them carefully, so that they should act while it was dark, not to alarm the people around them, and to be careful in everything, and if people saw it, they must find a way to seal their mouths, and not let people say it.

The people below are also very dedicated to their work, and they all know that when this thing is done, the benefits will definitely be indispensable, so can they not take it to heart?

But they didn't think that when they were carrying food inside while it was dark, they didn't notice that there was a little girl standing at the base of the wall, looking at them with a ignorant expression, and she saw it several times in succession.

These people only focus on the adults, and do not take the children seriously, and besides, the children are petite and standing on the wall, and they are busy carrying things, so they may not be able to see it.

"Master, don't worry, how can we not handle such a big thing? This thing will definitely be done smoothly, and everyone at the bottom is already very skilled, even if the yamen comes to check it, they can quickly hide all the grain and will not be discovered. ”

Master Lin was very satisfied, "Okay, you guys have done a good job this time, I have a lot of rewards, and I can't wait for many days, there have been displaced people in many places, how long can we wait in Lu County?" When there is chaos on this realm, that's a good time for us to make money. ”

After the instructions, he asked these people to go back, and Mrs. Lin came to the study again, and said worriedly, "Master, I always feel that this matter is inappropriate, if it is discovered by the yamen, it will be punished for serious crimes, the court has repeatedly ordered it, this matter is not allowed, do we really want to take such a risk?" ”

Master Lin said, "In the woman's opinion, if my father was alive, he would do the same, the Lin family's great business is true, but the business has been obviously difficult to do in the past few years, I don't think of any more ways to make money, this business will be ruined by those boys, what face do I have to go underground to see the ancestors of the Lin family?" The prefect asked me to do this, so what could be wrong? ”

Mrs. Lin is still worried, "I always feel that this matter is not easy to do, the prefect is trying to clean up and push us out, if this matter is discovered by the yamen, then the little magistrate county must not let the master go to prison?" If it's more serious, maybe you'll have to cut off your head, sir, do you really want to take this risk? ”

Seeing that he was worried, Master Lin asked her to close the door, let her come to him, and whispered, "I won't tell you, the prefect has other arrangements, you can't talk about this indiscriminately, it is related to our net worth and life, understand?" ”

Mrs. Lin nodded, "I know the master, what else I don't know, the master is quick to talk about it, I worry about this matter every day, and I can't sleep well." ”

Master Lin said mysteriously, "I also secretly heard about this matter, I said why the prefect insisted on letting me do this, it turned out that he had already made arrangements, this year the imperial court has reduced the border defense force, and Mongolia is in severe drought, do you think they will come over to grab grain?" If they can't, then they'll have to come and grab it. ”

Mrs. Lin thought for a while, suddenly reacted, covered her mouth, and said for a long time, "Master, are you saying that the prefect and Mengguo colluded and let them come over to grab food?" ”

Master Lin also lowered his voice, "I guess that's exactly the case, how could the prefect tell me such a thing, but I heard something, so I thought of it myself, if it wasn't for that, how could he be so sure that the Mongolian people would definitely enter Lu County to grab things?" ”

Mrs. Lin was extremely frightened, "I heard that those Mongolian people are extremely fierce, if they really let them break into Lu County, will we have a good life?" At that time, I am afraid that every family will not be at peace, and the lord knows about it, so he should not hide it and not report it. ”

Master Lin glared at her, "You're really confused, aren't you?" Even if the Mongolian people break into the city, where can they get in so easily? We still have to take this opportunity to make a fortune, and besides, if there is such a big mistake in Lu County, can the black yarn hat in Xiaozhi County be kept? I've always dreamed of getting him away, isn't that a good opportunity? Why should I make a stumbling block for the prefect, we can rely on him to earn money. ”
