Li Baihu's admiration was not for Cheng Qing, but for Wu Er and Sun An and a group of people, especially knowing that a group of people did not die at the hands of the water bandits when they killed the bandits, Li Baihu admired Wu Er, Sun An and others even more!

With the help of Li Baihu's soldiers, the bodies of the bandits were moved to the Huai'an Mansion.

Cheng Qing sent Wu Er and the soldiers of the guard to go to the government together, while he waited at the dock, and by the way, he invited the good doctor of Huai'an City to Yu San and them to see their injuries.

The doctor Cheng Qing asked to invite was about the same as the prefect of Huai'an.

As soon as the doctor who came to Yu San finished prescribing a prescription for blood and muscle, the prefect of Huai'an arrived.

The official document of grain transfer from Huai'an, the prefect of Huai'an has already received it, but according to his estimate, it will take a few days for the five princes to arrive in Huai'an...... The fifth prince did not come to Huai'an, and the prefect was indeed a little disappointed, but he would not be contemptuous of Cheng Qing because of this.

How do you look at it, Cheng Qing, a six-yuan and first-rank attendant, as long as he does not die in Huainan, he must be very promising.

Cheng Qing came to Huai'an to transfer food, not to make it difficult for the prefect, the interests of the two sides do not conflict, the prefect treats Cheng Qing naturally and cordially, not only that, but the Huai'an prefect is also very supportive of Cheng Qing's errand.

The Huai'an granary undertook the allocation of 120,000 stone of disaster relief grain, and Cheng Qing wanted to take away one-tenth of the grain, which was 12,000 stone.

What can surprise Cheng Qing is that the Huai'an prefect has ordered someone to count 50,000 stone of grain before the disaster relief team arrives, and has also allocated enough ships to transport 50,000 stone of grain.

"Master Cheng rest assured, this official dares to guarantee with his official life, there is no problem with 50,000 stone of grain, and Master Cheng can send someone to check and count and confirm that it is correct before loading the ship."

50,000 stone of grain!

Cheng Qing went south all the way, and the fleet loaded grain in granaries in various places along the way, and the local officials did not do anything and dragged out, except for the special situation in Tianjin, where all the grain was taken away, and there was no granary like Huai'an, and the disaster relief fleet had prepared excess grain before it arrived.

If the officials in every place had the consciousness and efficiency of the Huai'an prefect, the disaster relief fleet would have arrived in the Huainan disaster area long ago.

Take away these 50,000 stone grain?

Cheng Qing was extremely moved.

Still looking at Yu San's still pale face, Cheng Qing dispelled his greed.

50,000 stone of grain, or 7.5 million catties of grain, had to be transported by more than 100 ships.

The prefect of Huai'an was very considerate and prepared the ship properly, but Cheng Qing only had more than 20 guards on his side, and almost all of them were injured. Counting the soldiers sent by Commander Qi, including Li Baihu, the soldiers of the two hundred guards...... With just this little person, can 50,000 stone of grain be successfully transported to Huainan?

Waiting for her halfway, there are not only murderous scarf thieves, but also water bandits who are not dead.

Cheng Qing calmed down and reluctantly rejected the proposal of the Huai'an prefect: "My lord has a heart of love for the people, and the lower officials are extremely admired, but the 50,000 stone disaster relief grain has exceeded the ability of the lower officials to transport, so it can only be transported to Huainan in batches." ”

Eat a few bowls of rice with a big belly, and if you are greedy, you can not only eat to survive, but also easy to die.

The prefect of Huai'an was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Cheng Qing to refuse so quickly.

Don't you want to be impressed, and no longer consider your own proposal?

Although Yu San's body was still weak, he was also afraid that Cheng Qing would fall into the pit and not give the Huai'an prefect time to continue lobbying, so Yu San took the initiative to ask about the water bandits.

If Li Baihu of the guard and the prefect of Huai'an talked, the prefect would not have to deal with it, but when the hundred households of Jinyi Wei mentioned this matter, the prefect of Huai'an had to be cautious.

"Speaking of which, the official also wants to thank Cheng Bachelor and Yu Baihu, without the two of them pulling out their swords to help, this nest of water bandits will continue to endanger the ships passing by the canal, they kill people and rob money and do all kinds of evil, this official has sent troops to encircle and suppress several times, and the water bandits have escaped by taking advantage of being familiar with the terrain of the waters. These water bandits didn't open their eyes, and regarded the two as passing merchants, but they were killed by the two people, and the elite of the water bandits was lost, and it was difficult to form a climate without a few years of hard work...... You two have done a great thing! ”

Good words and no money, the Huai'an prefect greatly praised Cheng Qing and Yu San's behavior of exterminating the bandits, and at the same time defended himself without moving.

It's not that the prefect doesn't want to suppress bandits, he sent troops to suppress bandits several times after he took office, but the water bandits slipped away quickly, and there was no gain in several anti-bandit operations, and the Huai'an prefect was also annoyed by this.

The prefect's tone was sincere, and Cheng Qing and Yu San couldn't tell the truth from the fake.

There is a problem with the strict inspection, and it is difficult to say whether there is a problem with the Huai'an prefect.

But what's wrong with the Huai'an prefect, what can Cheng Qing do with the other party?

She's here for disaster relief.

As long as it doesn't affect disaster relief, it seems like she should turn a blind eye to other things?

This reason temporarily persuaded Cheng Qing, but she was still uncomfortable in her heart.

According to the previous bounty offered by the Huai'an Mansion, the reward for killing a water bandit was twenty taels of silver, and the corpses of the water bandits that Cheng Qing carried to the Huai'an Mansion were counted and counted seventy-eight, and Wu Er and others could receive a reward of 1,560 taels of silver from the Huai'an Mansion.

Probably because Cheng Qing's face is good, 1560 taels of silver were quickly delivered to the wharf, and there was no deduction at all, all of which were official silver in good condition.

Cheng Qing was useless with this silver, and she didn't kill the bandits with her own hands, so she immediately distributed the silver to everyone.

Whether it is the Cheng family's family or the guards of the Maoguo Mansion, everyone has a share in the silver reward, Cheng Qing is in charge of each person's 40 taels, and the Cheng family's broken hand and the seriously injured guard of the Maoguo Mansion will take double, both of them will stay in Huai'an City to recuperate, and give more silver is to relax their hearts.

Cheng Qing added some of the unfinished silver, and ordered Xiaopan to buy some medicinal materials and bring them.

According to Cheng Qing's division, Yu San and Gu Hongtai also participated.

Captain Gu, who impulsively donated all his net worth, is now even rare for 40 taels of silver.

Yu Baihu didn't take this bit of silver in his eyes.

casually threw his share to Gu Hongtai, and beckoned to Gu Hongtai, asking Gu Hongtai to come over.

"Jinyiwei also has a contact point in this Huai'an City, you ask them to keep an eye on the Huai'an Mansion and the strict inspection to see if there are any suspicious characters coming and going recently."

"Your Excellency, you are suspicious—"

"It's better to be careful, the Huai'an prefect has sent troops to suppress the bandits several times, and he hasn't even touched a single hair of the water bandits, how does he know that all the people we killed are the elite of the water bandits?"

Anyway, Yu San felt very strange.

If the prefect of Huai'an knows so much about the water bandits, and he has not succeeded in suppressing the bandits several times, it doesn't make sense at all.

If what the Huai'an prefect said is true, then Yu San can't rest assured either...... The water bandits are targeting him and Cheng Qing, they should treat them as ordinary rich businessmen, and to deal with more than 20 guards, do they need to send more than 100 elite sneak attacks?

Yu San sent Gu Hongtai to contact the Jinyi Wei spies in Huai'an City, and was about to remind Cheng Qing to be vigilant against the Huai'an prefect, when he saw the maid named Xiaopan, who was so smiling that she couldn't see her teeth, and trotted back.

"Young master, young master, who do you guess the slave has met?"
