Princess, she is a master of metaphysics

Chapter 233 Collusion between officials and businessmen
All I saw were the people on the side of the road running forward madly with broken bowls and bags.

Both Lin Qingyin and Xie Qi were extremely puzzled.

County magistrate Sun didn't have this attitude just now, why did he change his mind immediately when he turned around?

"What's the situation? Why is the county magistrate Sun willing to open a warehouse to release grain?"

"I don't know, let's go and have a look!"

After walking a short distance, I saw a group of ragged people forming a group in front of me.

Several soldiers were there to maintain order.

"Everyone, don't be in a hurry, everyone has a share, line up and come one by one!"

"Today, each person is limited to purchase three catties of food, and if you need it, you can come back tomorrow!"

Lin Qingyin took a look and was sure that the release of Liang this time was true.

At this time, a young man bought a bag of grain and walked over excitedly.

Xie Qi stopped in front of him along the way.

"Brother, I heard that the magistrate has opened a warehouse to release grain. What's going on?"

The man raised his eyebrows and said, "We don't know what's going on, and today's food is very cheap!"

"It seems that the two of you should be foreigners. Oh, it's nice to have money, so you don't have to go hungry!"

After the man finished speaking, he left here without looking back. He was still in a hurry to go back to eat. He was so hungry that he hadn't eaten for several days.

Lin Qingyin and Xie Qi decided to go to the magistrate first to see what's going on.

As soon as they arrived at the door, County Magistrate Sun came out to greet them.

"Princess, please!"

Lin Qingyin nodded, obviously feeling better now than before.

If county magistrate sun could correct his mistakes, she could still forgive him.

After all, embezzlement of disaster relief funds is not an isolated case, it has happened in many places.

After Lin Qingyin understood the situation, she said with a relaxed face.

"Isn't it enough to do this earlier? Seeing so many people hungry, can you bear to watch it?"

County magistrate Sun suddenly looked sad, and even almost burst into tears.

"Princess, you don't know, our Yang County is too poor, after the disaster relief funds have been deducted layer by layer, there is not much left, and it is too difficult for me to maintain the previous operation! "

Lin Qingyin frowned after hearing this.

"Don't worry too much, let everyone eat their stomachs first, we will report this matter to the court when we go back, and there will naturally be a solution at that time!"

County Magistrate Sun nodded quickly.

"Then thank you princess!"

After talking for a while, Lin Qingyin and Xie Qi left here.

After they left, County Magistrate Sun regained his deep expression.

A younger brother quietly came to his side.

"How's the food distribution going?" County Magistrate Sun asked softly.

"Today, only 3 catties will be distributed to each person, which is almost enough!"

County Magistrate Sun nodded: "Okay, I will withdraw after I am done, and we will talk about it tomorrow!"

"It's an adult!"

County magistrate Sun knew very well that there was not much food left, and most of it had already been sold by him for other purposes.

But this matter can only be delayed first, and Lin Qingyin must not be known.

into the night.

County Magistrate Sun was pacing up and down the room, thinking about his next move.

Right at this moment, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and several dark figures walked in quietly.

County magistrate Sun turned around and looked, his face became serious.

"What are you doing here? What if someone sees you?"

One of the men with a big belly sat down directly and said with a look of disdain.

"Yo, what's the matter, County Magistrate Sun, I have made enough money, so I want to separate myself from us?"

The visitors were just a few wealthy businessmen from Yang County.

They colluded with officials and embezzled disaster relief funds together.

County magistrate Sun knew that they couldn't be messed with, otherwise it would be hard for everyone to tear the net to death in the end!

"Alas!" County Magistrate Sun sighed and said, "You have seen the situation now. Princess Gu Lun Heshuo is in Yang County now, and I have no choice!"

These wealthy businessmen don't care about these things.

They only have money in their eyes, as long as it harms their interests, even if the king of heaven comes!
A middle-aged man said: "Master County Magistrate, you also know how much money we have invested. If the money is not recovered, it will definitely not work!"

"In my opinion, it's better if the Emperor Tiangong is far away from us here."

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he made a gesture on his neck.

The others nodded when they heard this.

"I agree with Boss Wang's suggestion!"

"If you don't do anything, just kill her!"

County Magistrate Sun was taken aback by their attitude.

This is pushing him into the fire pit!
"no!"

County Magistrate Sun returned directly.

"We still have a chance now, there is no need to be so dangerous."

"I'll try to persuade the princess again when I have a chance in the next two days, maybe they will leave on a whim, and Yang County will naturally still be our world!"

Several other wealthy businessmen looked at each other.

After a while, everyone finally nodded in agreement.

"Okay then, if that's the case, just wait a few more days!"

"However, we still have to say something ugly in front of us. If it doesn't work, then we will do it ourselves!"

After speaking, several people left the room.

County Magistrate Sun meditated alone in the room.

It was pitch black outside, with no light to be seen.

At this time, his heart was also in a mess.

What should we do next?
Silent all night.

On the second day, Lin Qingyin and Xie Qi came to the place where the food was put out yesterday.

After some discussion last night, the two decided to check the situation of the granary again.

If you really have difficulties, report to the court.

After all, disaster relief is not something that can be done in one go.

They came earlier, but those refugees came earlier.

There has been a group around for a long time.

These grains are too precious to them, and they are afraid that they will not get them if they come late.

The time has come to open the warehouse and release the grain.

The servants yelled loudly.

"Stand back, why squeeze! Anyone who doesn't listen to the greeting won't post!"

These yamen servants pushed hard, they obviously didn't take these refugees seriously.

After a while, the first person finally received the food.

It's just that it's even less than yesterday's amount!

"What's going on here? Why is there only half a catty of food today?" the refugee asked.

The yamen servant gave him a disdainful look.

"Half a catty is not bad! There are not many granaries now, take it and get out!"

"But there are four people in my family. Who can eat half a catty? My lord, please give me another catty!"

The yamen servant gave him a cold look, then kicked him out.

"Do you want love? I don't have time to talk to you guys here. Everyone can only get half a catty. If you don't want it, get out!"

The other people were also taken aback and began to discuss.
