Chapter 212
"Blue Sparrow"

Hearing Jiang Chengxiao's laughter, Zheng Ruyi looked up at his back with an embarrassed face, "Is Qingque mocking me for not knowing people?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao turned to look at Zheng Ruyi, and at this moment his expression returned to indifference. "No, Cui Yunxiang is your sister-in-law, you should think more about him, but I thought the relationship between us should be very deep, more than friends, but I didn't expect that you would help Cui Yunxiang conceal the treason of the court. "

"I didn't, I didn't know about this matter, you misunderstood me." Zheng Ruyi hurriedly explained, "Qing Que, you really misunderstood, I really didn't know that Yun Xiang dared to harbor treacherous criminals, what I asked for yesterday It's just, just. Alas!"

What else can I say, as expected, I was misunderstood by Qingque.

"You said you didn't know?" Jiang Chengxiao pretended to be 'surprised', "How is this possible, I don't believe that Cui Yunxiang didn't tell you about such an important thing."

Zheng Ruyi explained with a bitter face: "I really don't know about this matter. If I knew, how would I dare to mess with Yunxiang? How would I dare to harm you? I only thought that Yunxiang came here for the officials of Qi County .”

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, "Since this is the case, you can't blame you for this incident. Now that General Shen has set off to return to Chang'an, if Brother Zheng wants to save Cui Yunxiang, he has to start now."

As he spoke, Jiang Chengxiao pinched his finger bones unconsciously, and an unknown color flickered in his eyes.He was waiting for Zheng Ruyi's answer, and he hoped that Zheng Ruyi would not let him down.After all, he still likes Zheng Ruyi's character and conduct.

Hearing this, Zheng Ruyi hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "I see, thank you Qingque." After speaking, he turned and left.

Jiang Chengxiao stood there in a daze for a while, then kicked angrily at the stone pillar beside him.

boom!
"Damn! It hurts, hiss."

After the mob suppressed, Jiang Chengxiao quickly closed down several large households based on the evidence of corruption provided by Fan Shang, forcing them to open warehouses to release grain, and at the same time asked Donglai County to send officials to help the people resume farming.everything is gradually on the right track
After the matter in Donglai County was resolved, Jiang Chengxiao led the soldiers back to Qi County.This time Jiang Chengxiao didn't let Ge Huan go, and directly sent him to prison for interrogation.The fact is as he expected, without Ge Huan's cover, it is impossible for Qi County officials to embezzle disaster relief food unimpeded.

"Master Bao, I hope you will take more care of Qi County's political affairs." Jiang Chengxiao stood in the hall of the county government office and said to the county magistrate Bao Xi.

In this investigation campaign, only Juncheng Baoxi stayed out of the incident and was not involved.According to the rules of the imperial court, if something happened to the county guard, the government affairs will be temporarily handled by the county magistrate until the imperial court sends a new county guard to complete the handover.

"Inspector, don't worry, I will do my best." Bao Xi looked at the young inspector with admiration. He knew the affairs of Qi County well, but he was only a small county magistrate, how could he beat the county? The guard and the county lieutenant, not to mention the Cui family behind it.

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, then pointed to Yu Qingze and Pei Yuanyan beside him, and said: "These two are people with outstanding talents and knowledge. They can help Mr. Bao handle the affairs of Qi County. Speaking of which, I am really not very good at government affairs. I am more familiar with military affairs, and the government soldiers can be entrusted to me, and the livelihood of the common people still depends on a few people."

Yu Qing's eyes lit up. He first paddled in Lu County, and then continued paddling after reuniting with Qing Que. Can he finally be allowed to participate in the matter this time?

Compared with Yu Qingze's eagerness to try, Pei Yuanyan's face was slightly embarrassed. He is good at martial arts, but not good at handling these government affairs. "That... son, I don't really understand these things." He looked embarrassed.

Jiang Chengxiao paused, then smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, if you two don't understand, you can ask Lord Bao a lot, if I don't want to settle these soldiers, you two can be lazy."

He thought, no matter what, Yu Qingze and Pei Yuanyan were recruited by him and used as bait, so they should be comforted.For the two of them, gold, silver and jewelry are really not on the stage. At their level, only this kind of opportunity to intervene in government affairs can be regarded as eye-catching.

Even if Pei Yuanyan doesn't understand this point, Pei Ju will understand it when he knows it.

"My son, why don't you send me to the military camp to train soldiers, I'm really not good at this." Pei Yuanyan said honestly.

If he still had doubts about the son of King Zhao before, then he got to know the son thoroughly during his trip to Qingzhou.Maybe this guy is not as good as himself in fighting in front of the battle, but he is not as good as strategizing and winning thousands of miles away.

This, he had to admit.

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxiao laughed.This kid Pei Yuanyan is sincere, after thinking about it, Jiang Chengxiao agreed to his request, after all, this is his own choice, and he deserves to be scolded by Pei Ju at that time.

After making arrangements for Pei Yuanyan and Yu Qingze, Jiang Chengxiao rode on his horse and went to Shuangchi Village to meet the gods.This time things in Qi County can go so smoothly, the role played by Shenju is unimaginable.It was not in vain that he spent so much money and people to help Shenju gain a firm foothold here.

He didn't enter through the gate, but entered Shuangchi Village through a secret door.

"Master, brother Shenju met the two owners of Juxian Village in the outer hall, and I hope the master will forgive me." A house slave bowed and explained while offering tea.

Jiang Chengxiao nodded and sat in the gazebo.Before he knew it, it was already July, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. The robe he was wearing now had been simplified a lot, but it was still hot.He really wanted to kick off his boots and roll up his sleeves, but thinking of the house slave guards around him, he gave up.

Supporting his head with one hand, he lay down on the stone table to rest lightly.

Nan Jiyun took a look, walked to a house slave, and said softly: "Go, drive away all the cicadas and insects around, so as not to disturb the master's rest, please be quiet."

"Yes, my subordinate understands."

About half an hour later, he slowly opened his slightly heavy eyelids, and only after his sight gradually recovered did he see his surroundings clearly.Nan Jiyun, Shenju and others stood quietly aside.

"Master, this is the herbal tea prepared according to your instructions. There are a lot of anti-fatigue herbs in it, but the taste is a little bit worse. Can you try it, master?" Shenju took the herbal tea from the guard and placed it on the stone table.

Jiang Chengxiao took a sip of the herbal tea, and Nan Jiyun brought a copper basin, which contained well water and silk.After washing his face, his spirit recovered a lot, and he called Shenju and Nan Jiyun to sit down.

"This time the matter in Qi County was resolved so quickly, you have contributed a lot." Jiang Chengxiao praised.

Shenju said: "The master is absurd, this is what the subordinates should do, if this little thing can't be done well, the subordinates will be too useless."

Is it a little thing?

Jiang Chengxiao didn't think so. To gain a firm foothold here in Qi County so quickly, even if someone had money, someone might not be able to do it. The divine move deserved his praise.

"This turmoil in Qi County requires not only rectification of the soldiers, but also the officials of Qi County." Jiang Chengxiao said in a low voice: "The office in charge of the household registration of Qi County is in chaos now. You can use some means to put this time in the government office." The soldiers in the army have changed their household registrations, understand?"

Hearing this, Shenju nodded, "This subordinate understands what the master means, and will definitely secretly help those brothers develop in the army."

Jiang Chengxiao nodded, and said solemnly: "Remember, confidentiality comes first, and you must not leak any news."

"My subordinate understands."

"By the way, do you know the salt fields along the coast of Dongnae County?" Jiang Chengxiao asked.

Shenju said: "This subordinate knows that the tea, grain, and even horses and livestock managed by this subordinate are not as profitable as the salt field. It's just that the big local households in Donglai County are very wary of this area. Coupled with the relationship with the mob, I don't have a good way to intervene for a while."

salt, iron.These two should be the most profitable livelihoods in Dajin. People have no strength if they don’t eat salt, and they can’t make farm tools without iron. They are closely related to the lives of the people, and they are indispensable.Not only was the Dajin short of salt, but the grassland tribes also needed salt. In the trade with the grassland tribes, salt and iron always occupied the largest two items.

It is precisely because these two items are strategic resources that they are also under the official control of the imperial court.That is, 'salt and iron official camp'.

Whoever moves salt and iron is a smuggler and a crime.

But it is precisely because of scarcity that this industry is a huge profiteering industry.
