Chapter 43: You Almost Got into Trouble
Su Xuan is just talking nonsense, if she doesn't stun Zhuyu, how can she be a bodyguard for herself?
In Shuzhou City, apart from the government, who else has the money to buy so much grain?
Su Xuan can now follow Zhu Yu and find out what he wants to find out step by step.
"Maybe the terms you negotiated are different, as for whether the buyer you agreed on is the same person, we have to meet Zhizhou first." Su Xuan said.
"Okay, let's go to the government now." Zhu Yu didn't care about the injuries on her body, she just wanted to solve this matter quickly, and then go home.
After a brief exchange of words, the two set off for the prefect's yamen.
When he arrived in front of the yamen, Zhu Yu suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
She only needs to hand over the food to the prefect's yamen, and then she can go home, why do she have to bring this Su Dongpo?
After the briefing, the two walked into the prefect's yamen.
"Talk less later, I'll talk." Su Xuandao.
"Why? You're the retinue, aren't you?" Zhuyu asked.
"Just listen to me."
The prefect's name is Wang Chi, and he is an obese man about forty years old, and he knows at a glance that he is pampered all year round.
Wang Chi fell behind, looked at the two of them first, and then his eyes fell on Zhu Yu's body.
"Meet Futai-sama." Su Xuan bowed, and Zhu Yu also saluted.
"Excuse me, sit down."
Wang Chi beckoned the two to sit down.
"200,000 stone of grain, have you arrived?" Wang Chi asked.
"Lord Hui, there is a lot of stone, and it is all in Shuzhou." Su Xuan replied.
Wang Chi nodded incomprehensibly and said with a smile, "Not bad, not bad."
"Dare to ask your lord, Shuzhou collected it last year
Why do you buy so much food?" Zhuyu suddenly asked.
When Wang Chi heard this question, he leaned forward slightly and asked, "Guess why?"
Su Xuan secretly glared at Zhu Yu, signaled her not to talk nonsense, and then hurriedly smiled: "Your Excellency should be thoughtful, prepare food for the winter in advance, and be prepared."
"Yes, that's how I think about it." Wang Chi leaned back in his chair.
Su Xuan had already seen that he didn't think about it like this at all.
"The adults are far-sighted and take precautions, and the villains are really admired." Su Xuan smiled and patted his ass.
"Passing the prize."
There was silence in the side hall for a moment, and Wang Chi said, "Since the grain has arrived, after handing over the grain, you can go back. The official is busy with affairs, and he can't accompany him for a long time, so he ...... come."
Su Xuan saw that Wang Chi wanted to leave, so he said, "Adults are slow, villains have one more thing to ask."
"Ask."
"Last night there was an incident in the caravan, someone secretly poisoned the eldest lady and coerced us to sell the grain to another family. The villain dared to ask, is it an adult...... Secretly colluding with the caravan stewards and trying to get dark?" Su Xuan asked with a slight squint.
Wang Chi learned from Su Xuan, squinting slightly and glaring at the other party.
Zhu Yu immediately stared at Su Xuan, and there was already horror in his eyes.
She asked her not to talk nonsense, but she wanted the prefect to ask such a question!
Is this something that can be asked?
If he really did it, would the two of them still be able to get out of the prefect's yamen alive?
Wang Chi gritted his teeth and asked softly, "What about the steward?"
"Stealing chickens doesn't make rice, and I've been killed by the eldest lady." Su Xuan replied.
Wang Chi's eyes widened, and he said angrily, "
How dare you question that the official wants to steal your grain? Be bold!"
He smashed the cup hard, and a dozen axe hands suddenly poured out of the outside.
"Slandering the court officials is a capital offense!" Wang Chi was furious.
Su Xuan was just talking, but he didn't expect Wang Chi's reaction to be so big.
He still sat upright, calm, as if nothing had happened
Kind.
The nervous bamboo rain stood up, and his eyes already revealed murderous intent.
She felt like she was being cheated by this guy.
Wang Chi raised his hand high and was about to wave it down, but Su Xuan said, "My lord, you can't kill us."
"Do you know how many things this official has? What is the crime of slandering the ruler?" Wang Chi said angrily.
"If the Lord kills us, these 200,000 stone grains will naturally return the way they came. When the news of the eldest lady's death comes back to Fuyao Tower, the landlord is furious and mobilizes the power of the whole Fuyao Building to deal with you, what will you do?" Su Xuan asked.
Whether Fuyaolou can deal with Wang Chi or not, this is not what he should think.
The point is that the meaning of Su Xuan's words is very clear, they hid the grain.
As long as the two of them did not leave the yamen, the grain would naturally go back.
Wang Chi raised his hand and waved, and the knife and axe hand immediately retreated.
"Good boy, thoughtful enough."
"Your Excellency is overrated, this is called being careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." Su Xuan said with a smile.
"I like to deal with smart people." Wang Chi also laughed.
This little rabbit cub, the front foot praised him for his foresight and precautions, and the back foot taught him a lesson, which was really cunning.
In fact, Su Xuan didn't know where the grain was parked at all.
What he said was just a cliché.
Now he has also confirmed that the 200,000 stone grain is for him
Very important.
The people of Shuzhou are not short of food, and the government is even less likely to be short of food, but he still has to buy grain in large quantities, which can actually explain the problem.
He is a prefect, and he is definitely not buying food for himself.
"Where's the food?" Wang Chi asked again.
"The rule of doing business in Fuyao House has always been that money comes before goods. My lord, you have to give money first." Su Xuan said.
"The official has already prepared the money for the food, so let's do it, the official will pay half of it first. When the grain arrives at the prefect's yamen, the official will pay the other half." Wang Chi said.
"Miss, what do you think?" Su Xuan immediately turned his head to Zhuyu and asked.
"No problem."
Soon, Su Xuan got 100,000 taels of silver tickets.
After the two sides agreed on the time and place of the grain delivery, the two left the prefect's yamen.
"One hundred thousand taels, it's done." Su Xuan handed the silver ticket to Zhu Yu.
"You almost got into trouble." Zhuyu doesn't have a good airway.
"Don't you see that the axe man was ambushed in advance? You walk the rivers and lakes, and you don't have any eyesight?" Su Xuan said.
"One thousand taels is my reward for you."
"Don't worry, Miss, there are still many strange things about this matter. Presumably, there are many places that the eldest lady uses up and down." Su Xuan said with a smile.
Noon.
Ryu Rushi, holding a folding fan, stood next to a pond, with two corpses floating at his feet.
These two people are the two stewards of the Zhuyu caravan.
At this time, a person quickly ran to Liu Rushi's side.
"Childe, you really guessed right, the people from Fuyao Lou entered the prefect's yamen."
Liu Ru put the fan away and said, "Put these two corpses in place and go home."
