Night.

Cui's house is brightly lit.

Cui Zai set up a banquet, and all the big grain merchants in Yuhang were in place.

The victims outside are hungry, but the feast here is full of fish and meat.

There are so many delicacies on display that these people present may only be able to eat out of 12.

The rest of the food was eventually eaten by the people or dragged to the homes in the countryside to feed the pigs.

The victims on the street did not have a little oil and water in their stomachs, and not long after receiving the porridge, their stomachs began to scream one after another.

But the pigs raised by the Cui family are only fat heads and big ears, fat and strong!

The victims outside faced the long night, and except for wrapping their bedding tightly to resist the bitter cold, they couldn't even find anyone to brag and fart.

But it's singing and dancing.

The dancing girls are divided into three groups, and they can take turns singing and dancing all night long!

The shopkeeper of Donghang Grain Store drank a glass of wine, and felt that he was gradually a little drunk.

The food used in this cup of so-called fine wine brewing is enough for a few victims outside to eat for a day.

With the intention of wine, the shopkeeper of Donghang Grain Bank picked up a glass of wine and saluted Cui Zai:

"At this moment, I am waiting to drink freely here, and the so-called minister of the Qin Mission, I am afraid that he is sitting in the county office and losing his hair."

"Without the help of all of you in my Yuhang grain world, without the nod of Jiangnan leaders like Master Cui, Xiao Qincha, and still delusional about success, it is simply ridiculous and generous!"

With the shopkeeper of Donghang Grain Bank taking the lead, others also enthusiastically spoke:

"That's it, Xiao Qincha, a lucky person, was just taken by chance by the emperor, and he really regarded himself as a character!"

"It's just a family of relatives, and it dares to argue with the real wealthy family, it's really arrogant and self-aware!"

"After tonight, I'm afraid he will understand, no matter where he is, without the help of a family like Cui Yan Zhengshi, he can only return to the capital to be punished after the January period!"

"Hahaha, I'm afraid that early tomorrow morning, he will personally go to Cui's Mansion and ask Lord Yan Zhengshi for his guilt!"

"When the time comes, Master Cui shouldn't easily spare him for the crime of neglect, hahaha......"

Or that night.

The moon hangs high.

In the imagination of everyone in Cui Zaifu, Xiang Yan, who was sitting alone in the county government and worried, was driving in the water with the old housekeeper Yang in a flat boat.

The surface of the water was sprinkled with silver light, and it was divided in half by the track of a small boat, like a guard of honor following behind.

Not far away, in the deep, rich night that the moonlight does not shine, there is a torch swinging around in a regular manner, like a lighthouse, and like a sea monster that lures people to eat it in legend.

This is certainly not a sea monster, this is the fleet of fishing boats.

And the person who placed the torch was Liu Yan.

After Liu Yan put down the ladder and picked up Xiang Yan, the boat was full of capable men who were swimming in fish boats.

And at their feet, behind them, in the cabins, on the decks, all piled up with food.

Although it is old grain.

But it's still food that can save people's lives and fill their stomachs!

"Brothers have worked hard, wait for this thing, everyone will be rewarded when they return to the capital!"

"Brothers, a few more days of grievances, a few more days of coping with the water and grass on this river. When the time comes, you will go ashore together. ”

"In addition, from today onwards, every night, taking advantage of the night, I will transport 50,000 loads of grain to the shore, no more, no less."

"Okay, let's go!"

At the sound of an order, the boats were lowered into the water. The big boat and the small boat began to get busy.

Liu Yan personally took the first wave of small boats to transport the first batch of grain to the shore.

Shore.

The officials of Yuhang County were all waiting on land.

They were all halfway asleep and were dragged up from bed by Xiang Yan.

But no one complained.

Because Xiang Yan gave them enough "overtime pay".

Of course, confidentiality is also included in these overtime pays.

If tonight's events leak out, it may not be the fish that the fisherman on the shore will pull up tomorrow, but the corpse of that person.

"Head, what are we doing in the middle of the night when we are asked to go to a place where this kind of bird doesn't?"

The deeper the night, the quieter it became, and it felt indescribably dull, and finally one of the officials couldn't help but break the silence.

"They told us to carry the grain."

The man who was called the head replied.

"Transporting grain? This time, even the aquatic products in the water were almost eaten up by the victims! What kind of food will there be in this kind of hellish place? ”

"Could it be that Lord Qincha can also use the demon method of Liuding Liujia, and can conjure food for us from the water?"

The man who was called the head said,

"What are you worrying about, whether you have food or not, we already have the money anyway, even if there is no movement here all night, can the money in your hand make you suffer?"

The servant moved to the side and said:

"Aren't I also bored......

"It's not going to be boring right away." Old Butler Yang appeared from the side.

"Come with me."

After the old housekeeper Yang finished speaking, he took the lead and walked to the other side.

The leader of the officials was in front of him and said:

It turned out that the grain to be transported was not here.

Are we waiting here to avoid the people who bring the grain?

It didn't take long to walk, and he followed Old Butler Yang to his destination.

"Wow, there's food."

"How can there be so many! This amount...... I can't see less than tens of thousands of quintals! ”

"Where did Lord Chincha get so much food, and why did he sneak in the middle of the night to transport it?"

Old Butler Yang's face sank and said:

"Don't ask what you shouldn't."

"Starting tonight, at this time every night from now on, you will go to this place and transport all the grain you see back to the county office."

"Don't be early, and don't be late."

"Get paid the same wages every night as tonight."

"Alright, let's get to work!"

Tonight, the county government is also brightly lit.

Xiang Yan asked Liu Yan to select a few shrewd and capable subordinates to bring to Yuhang County.

From dawn onwards, these men were responsible for distributing food to the people.

"Young Master."

Old housekeeper Yang said to Xiang Yan,

"I informed my lord of the situation here, and told him your plan to distribute food to the people."

"The old man wrote back and said that he suggested that you mix sand with your grain."

Liu Yan called Xiang Yan a son, and Yang Lao Butler was called a young master.

Xiang Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this.

This old housekeeper Yang followed him to Jiangnan alone, and he didn't see any entourage with him, not to mention that the three of them left the group first.

Moreover, Old Butler Yang almost followed Xiang Yan every day.

When, in what way, and at such a speed, did he get the news back to the capital and get a reply?

You must know whether he decided to distribute grain to the people, or after getting the news of the grain merchants from Liu Yan this morning.

This old housekeeper Yang, Xiang Yan thought that he was just an auxiliary role stuffed by the cheap dad for himself.

Later, when he was doing it with the family members of the son of Tuesday, Xiang Yan found that he had mistaken him.

I didn't expect to find out again today, he still misjudged him!
