The other party obviously didn't expect King Qin and his party to be so menacing, after all, when they were in Dongchuan Mansion before, they didn't act so angry, and they didn't seem to care much about the stolen disaster silver......

"This, dare to ask what this son should be called? The lower officials negotiate with the upper peak, and it is better for the idle people to intervene less, otherwise it will ......"

"Shut up! Look at your greasy, disgusting face, why am I so upset? No more nonsense, be careful that your aunt cuts your tongue! ”

The county Cheng looked like an official who crushed people to death, but she didn't want to finish her words, so she was scolded back by Xiao Liuli, even if she didn't deliberately reveal her identity, her arrogant appearance really scared everyone.

"This, this, this ......"

The county was scolded a little confused, his eyes widened and he spoke directly.

"It's not a good thing to take people down and look at them."

With a wave of Xiao Jin's big hand, a guard took down Luoxian County, and did not forget to click on his dumb hole, so as not to listen to the noisy voice.

"Let's go inside."

Xiao Chen glanced at the periphery lightly, the people who offered the king had already dispersed, although he didn't count on him early in the morning, but he still pretended to be decent at this time.

The gate of Zhuqi County was pushed open from the outside, but there was no one inside, it seemed that all the guards were outside, and they were killed by the night ghost in front of a stick of incense.

"Is it really not there?"

Nan Jinyu looked around, not even a ghost shadow, and turned to Xiao Jin suspiciously.

"Ahem! in the backyard. ”

Xiao Jin pointed with his hand, looked at the direction of the backyard with a focused expression, and said after a while: "No one is missing!" It's neat! ”

Xiao Chen nodded when he heard this, and said with a light expression: "That's good, the few days that are delayed when you go out will be made up today, if not, the disaster relief will be delayed for too long, and you won't be able to explain it when you go back." ”

"Yes!"

The shadow guards received the order, and even Xiao Jin's expression was rarely serious, and after a closer look, he didn't drink last night?

Nan Jinyu and Xiao Liuli glanced at each other, and the two people who were kept in the dark and caused an instant explosion were helpless, so they could only silently rest their hands on their weapons, just in case.

Everyone followed Xiao Jin straight to the backyard, and when they were waiting to knock open the door of the backyard, what they saw was an extremely strange scene.

From top to bottom in the courtyard, there is the appearance of wearing linen and filial piety, everyone kneels in front of the incense table and kowtows, pious as if they are holding some kind of ceremony, although there is no slightest sadness, but it looks like they are really in mourning......

"Who's coming? Dare to kidnap my Luo County Cheng and spread wild in the territory of my Luo County parents and officials, you are bold! ”

A family member stood up abruptly and rushed straight from the incense case to the front, and although the momentum was evil, the voice became lower and lower, as if he was overwhelmed by terrible coercion and could not raise his head.

"Fools ask the same stupid questions, take it!"

Xiao Jin lazily gave orders, not ready to say anything to them in the slightest, just the words he heard were enough to make the people here even the nine clans!

"Do you dare to be wild in my Luo County? Are you impatient? Did you know...... Whining! ”

The family still wanted to shout, but the next second he was directly knocked over and tied to the ground.

The guards quickly took down all the people in the courtyard, but the door of the main house was closed tightly, as if there was really no one inside!

"Open the door!"

Xiao Chen glanced at Xiao Jin, his expression was already a little impatient, this scene couldn't look good anyway, he didn't want to bring her here, but who knew that she not only wanted to follow, but also seemed to be a little angry.

"Bump away." Xiao Jin had to order it to be executed immediately.

Several guards carried the incense case and knocked the door of the main house open, and after a "bang", the gate of the main house fell to the ground, revealing a large group of people inside.

How smoky and miasma there is outside, how oily it is here, if there is no comparison, you will really feel that these are people from two worlds!

"Who is presumptuous?"

The leader looked calm, but the anger in his eyes couldn't be concealed, revealing a strong killing intent.

"Take it."

Xiao Chen waved his sleeves, and didn't want to talk nonsense, none of the things inside and outside here are innocent, and when it comes to crime, there is no worst or more evil.

Most of the guards were outside, and before they could make a move, the leader spoke.

"Who is so bold? The elders of the Luoxian County Decree and the Chamber of Commerce are here, how can you be presumptuous! ”

The bearded man who claimed to be the county commander retracted his gaze a little, his gaze stayed on Xiao Chen and turned, but he became calm and relaxed.

"Are you the county magistrate of Luo County?"

Xiao Jin playfully hooked the corners of his lower lip, but he didn't mean to stop taking people, and after a few breaths, the people in the room were tied up into a pile and sat in the middle of the room, like lambs to be slaughtered.

"That's nature! This official is the county order of Luo County! Who are you? Why didn't you break into the county government, but also kidnap the county lord and a cadre of government officials? ”

The county commander looked at their dress and knew that the other party was not small, and after thinking about the previous incident, he had already guessed the identity, but he made a fake appearance like this to show his innocence.

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin is here, why don't you kneel down quickly?"

Xiao Jin squinted his eyes and said, this kind of work suitable for the fourth brother is actually his turn, so he has to learn something like it, right?

When the county magistrate heard this, he immediately showed a panicked look, held his head with both hands and straightened the official hat on his head, and then hurriedly walked out from behind the table and knelt on the ground with a "poof".

"The lower officials have no eyes, please forgive your sins! Luoxian County suffered this catastrophe, the people were panicked, and the lower officials were discussing disaster relief matters with the Chamber of Commerce, and they were disappointed, and they hoped that the adults would forgive ......them."

After the county magistrate said these words in a panic, he bowed down with his five bodies, compared with his arrogant appearance before, he looked like a real stinky official at this moment.

"Grass people, wait, meet His Royal Highness King Qin, His Royal Highness is blessed with Jin'an!"

The people who were tied up in a ball followed and bowed, and because they were bound to the ground, they fell to the ground and rolled back and forth, like a herd of pigs.

"You're talking about disaster relief?"

Xiao Jin raised his eyebrows, and the corner of his eyes peeked at Xiao Chen's expression, but he saw that his eyebrows did not move, and he looked like he was doing it, and he really sighed in his heart.

"If you go back to the peak, that's exactly it! The day before yesterday, Xia Guan learned that there was news from Dongchuan Mansion...... The disaster relief silver allocated by the imperial court was robbed by traitors, so I couldn't eat day and night, until today I finally summoned all the members of the Chamber of Commerce here to discuss, hoping that everyone would contribute money and efforts to help the people survive this natural disaster! ”

The county order hammered his heart and said, looking at the bitter look of a little sincere, if it weren't for the real face of seeing them before, even Nan Jinyu almost believed it.

"Yes, yes! Adults! The grass people and others are here to discuss disaster relief matters, and I hope you will see it! ”

"That's right, my lord, please loosen the ties for us first, you are all well-known figures in Luo County, and if you spread it like this, you won't be able to get over it in the future!"

“……”

Everyone agreed, they were still a group of innocent people before, but now they are full of brains and fat, licking their faces and complaining bitterly, they really want to knock out with a stick.

"Untie."

Xiao Jin waved his hand, and the guards immediately let them go.

The bigwigs of the Chamber of Commerce got up from the ground one by one wailing, some had their hair in a bun, some had fallen off their shoes, some had broken belts, some had rotten sleeves, and in just a few moments, they had changed from delicate high-class people to funny clowns jumping off the beam.

Xiao Chen sat down on the main seat and spit out two words lightly, "Go on." ”

"Huh? What did His Royal Highness the King of Qin say, and what continued? ”

The county commander pretended to be stupid and stunned with a smiling face, but he didn't dare to look up at the head, it is rumored that King Qin is decisive in killing but has a strange temperament, as long as he does what he likes, it will be over, why anger him?

"Idiot! What my third brother, His Royal Highness the King of Qin, means is that since you are discussing how to provide disaster relief, then continue to say that we are here in Luoxian County for disaster relief, so naturally we only care about disaster relief. ”

Xiao Jin cleared his throat, sat down next to Xiao Chen, his eyes stayed on the county order and everyone, and couldn't help but complain silently.

How could a person like the third brother who knew things like a god not think of this thing? He just wanted to let himself work, he just took a break.

"Yes, yes, yes! What His Highness the Seventh Highness said is extremely true! Your Majesty, please continue to ......"

The county magistrate suddenly realized, looked embarrassed, sat down at the bottom, faced the members of the chamber of commerce who were standing by the door, and waved his hand generously, signaling them to sit down.

"Wait! Just now, this person lied that the county commander was not in the house when he went out, what was going on? "Search for e-books

Xiao Jin said coldly, so frightened that everyone who was about to sit down almost knelt down again.

"This ...... This person is indeed the county magistrate of this county, Xu is late today, I don't know that I have rushed back overnight last night, it is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, hehehehe! ”

The county magistrate said apologetically, and when he went up, he loosened the bound person, and then pressed the person to the ground, and the county man knelt directly on the bluestone brick ground.

"Uh-huh, uh-uh-uh......"

The county was taken to a dumb point, so he could only kowtow and admit his mistakes, and looked at Fang Cai as if they were two people.

"Ask His Royal Highness King Qin to open the net, for the sake of his ignorance, and unlock his acupoints?"

The county order laughed with him, looking scared and bold, he couldn't tell why, but the cowardice that emanated from his bones pretended to be the essence.

"What? Can you untie it? ”

Nan Jinyu held her chin silently, when she saw them kill people that night, she thought that this person was a vulgar and reckless man, but when she saw it today, she reversed her mind, these people can go from Jiangyang thieves to buy officials, and they are not simple-minded people......

"This ...... Hehehe! Thank you for reminding this son, it's the lower officials who are confused. ”

The county order said that he pushed the person to the side, and no longer mentioned the matter of connecting the acupoints, anyway, after today's matter is completed, no matter how arrogant they are, they have to untie it obediently, and they need to be in a hurry at this time?

"That's it! Don't grind around here! No matter how much you grind, it's going to be dark! Hurry up! ”

Xiao Jin urged lazily, staring at the profiteers who had already sat down calmly by the door, holding back the urge to draw a knife, and watched quietly.

"Yes, yes, yes! Ahem! ”

The county order responded with a smile, and turned to look at the people at the head of the group, and the official frame was immediately put out.

"This summer's floods were severe, and Luo County bore the brunt of the losses, and many surrounding counties were devastated, and the people were complaining! In desperation, the official had to worry about the Chamber of Commerce, and hoped that everyone would donate generously to help the people of the surrounding counties of Luo County to survive this catastrophe. ”

The county magistrate was impassioned, full of emotions and agitated words, and those who didn't know thought he was an authentic reader, but just looked at the way he looked up with his eyes and fingers and kept tapping the rhythm, and felt that the speech was really a bit disgusting.

"Good!"

"That's right!"

"Well said!"

……

Nan Jinyu glanced at Xiao Chen dumbfounded, only to see that he was extremely calm and narrowed, and he didn't even bother to move, obviously planning to let go of the Seventh Highness to deal with it, so he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

"Since this is the case, let's make a long story short and say that we will not delay the hour anymore, you will write a list of the silver taels and valuables that each family can donate, and send it to the county government for confiscation tomorrow, how about exempting everyone's taxes after the year?"

Li Xian Ling waved his hand and summoned everyone to donate, but the funds for this donation have not yet come out, but the promise of the big money has already been spoken?

"The prefectural commander is wise! We're waiting for our own liver and brains! ”

The older merchant stroked his beard and said, a pair of shrewd little eyes rolled slightly, and took the lead in taking out a bag from his sleeve pocket and placing it on the table.

"Or will the president know how to be flexible, so you can set an example for everyone, what's in this bag?"

Li Xian Ling Zhengse said, looking at the sincerity with a grateful expression, and almost burst into tears on the spot.

"It's ...... A contemptible heirloom! ”

The president of the Chamber of Commerce sighed tremblingly, opened the cloth bag that had been some years old, and revealed a gray stone inside.

"What the hell is this? What's the scraps? ”

Xiao Jin scoffed, he knew early on that these guys were not things, but he didn't expect them to be so non-things!

"Rough jade? Cut ruined? Is this a reminder that it's time to pay the IQ tax? ”

Nan Jinyu couldn't help but complain, there is nothing wrong with this person, right? The president of the Chamber of Commerce donated such a thing? It's just a mouth!

"This little boy really has good eyesight! This stone is indeed the original stone that my ancestors bought when they went to southern Xinjiang to start their business, and the reason why it has become an heirloom is also a story, and the words ......"

"That's it! Next! ”

Xiao Jin impatiently interrupted him to make up a story and tell nonsense, and directly changed the topic.

The third brother expected these people to be like this, so he would let him deal with today's affairs, right?

"Yes, yes! Next. ”

Li Xian Ling smiled and pointed to the middle-aged man under the old man, looking a little playful in anticipation.

"The president's family heirlooms have been taken out, and I can't be lazy as the vice president, this is the only silver tael in my house, and the silver taels next to it are all pressed on last year's business, who knows that the flood broke through the embankment and flooded our watermelon field, and there are countless particles!"

After the middle-aged man put the money bag on the table, he hid his face and burst into tears, if it weren't for the large number of people, he would probably cry to death!

"Humph! Next! ”

Xiao Jin was too lazy to talk nonsense, and waved him down.

has the beginning of the first two, and the one that comes up in the back is better than the other, and one is poorer than the other.

Everyone handed over a shabby money bag, and they all said in a wailing tone that they were bankrupt, and accepted the tax exemption for next year as stated by the Li County Order......

"That's all? Finished? ”

Xiao Jin took a sip of tea unhurriedly, raised his eyebrows and glanced at the county order.

"If you go back to His Royal Highness the Seventh, the members of the entire Huainan Chamber of Commerce are here, and the two families who didn't come, one family is ruined, and the other is ...... is in a big funeral, but I'm afraid I'm shy. ”

Li Xianling said worriedly, how can he see that he is a caring parent and official who thinks about the people of Limin, where is it like a Jiangyang thief?

"Count it, the sum of donations, and register it."

Xiao Jin spoke, waiting for the result expressionlessly, as if he was just going through the motions, without half a wave.

"Back to Your Highness, the count is complete, a total of twelve taels and eight pieces of silver."

The guard handed over the list of records, and his serious appearance did not mean the slightest hint of sarcasm.

"Twelve taels or eight dollars? The iron rooster is better at plucking feathers than you. ”

Xiao Liuli was already impatient, if it wasn't for the seventh brother who told her not to come nonsense before she came, she would have drawn her sword and sent these shameless things to see their ancestors!

"Poof!"

Xiao Jin couldn't hold back his laughter, and then noticed that he was out of shape, and immediately restrained his expression.

"Childe's words are wrong, Luo County is now ten households and nine empty, it is not easy to live, if you can take out the silver to help the disaster and save people, then they are all good people!"

Lord Li said bitterly, as if Xiao Liuli had slandered these living bodhisattvas!

"Hehe, good man? Good people are big fish and big meat, and they wear gold and silver at home and are raised by eighteen concubines, holding the name of tax-free disaster relief and the name of the largest chamber of commerce in Huainan on their heads, and donating twelve taels of silver? What a! ”

Xiao Liuli was so angry that she gritted her teeth, if it weren't for the sight of the seventh brother who agreed, she would have wanted to take their sacrificial knives at this time!

"Childe's words are ...... wrong"

"Don't hide it from your lords, most of the family members in the old decay have starved to death, you look at the clothes worn by the old decay, the family property has been sold and there is not much left, let alone eating meat, the old decay has not even smelled oil for a long time!"

The president of the Chamber of Commerce sighed, pulling the dirty and torn robe on his body and wiping his tears as he spoke.

"yes, yes! The nobles don't know how poor Luo County is now! If it weren't for Lord Li being a good official and sympathizing with our businessmen, we wouldn't have taken out the silver taels for the winter for disaster relief! ”

The vice president cried, his greasy face dangling and blinking.

"Really! Not to mention eating meat, this oil star grass people have never seen it, and all the rats in the house have been eaten! ”

The businessman next to him, who was so fat that he could almost roll, answered the call, and behaved in pain.

“……”

Everyone gossiped, almost took out the ability to take care of the house, and jointly depicted a human tragedy.
