Chapter 129 I am a profiteer and who am I afraid of?
Sitting in the bamboo shed where Qin Xiao stored rice, Jin Xi sighed silently as he watched the crowds of victims outside the porridge shed.Qin Xiao, a demon star, really shouldn't be messed with, killing people won't pay for their lives!
"My lord, there is still a quarter of an hour until the porridge shed will be closed, do you want to cook another bag of rice?" Zhou Qingniu pushed through the crowd, squeezed into the bamboo shed, and saluted Jinxi respectfully.His voice was already loud, but I don't know if it was on purpose or not. He didn't mean to restrain his voice at all. He was stared at by countless people outside with strong anticipation. Jin Xi couldn't say the word "no" .Unwillingly nodded.
Zhou Qingniu didn't see Jinxi's abnormality, and without help, he grabbed a sack full of grain and walked out of the bamboo shed without breathing.
Jin Xi was dumbfounded. He only drank a bowl of porridge every day and took the 200-jin sacks as a joke. How much effort would it take if he was full?Although he has less brains, at least he has strength, not too useless.Thinking of this, Qin Xiao's remorse for not persuading Qin Xiao to accept Zhou Qingniu faded a bit.
Cooked another bag of rice, which meant more porridge to drink.As soon as Zhou Qingniu went out with the sack on his shoulders, he was surrounded by the victims, and the cheers became louder and louder, as if the world had fallen into pie.
It landed in Jin Xi's ears but it was like a thousand arrows pricking his heart. Looking back at the hundreds of sacks piled up in the shed, he felt mixed emotions in his heart.After Zhou Qingniu made such a fuss, he couldn't hide the lack of food in the mansion warehouse. Zhou Bohai broke the pot and didn't even cook the symbolic rice soup. All the victims flocked to Qin Xiao's porridge shed. more and more every day...
Jin Xi let out a long and short sigh, and Qing Xing, who was sighing, was in a mess. She couldn't help but said, "Don't worry, Mr. Qin, did Mr. Qin go out of the city to ask for help? Such a large amount of food will definitely last for half a month. , Mr. Qin must be back."
If these sacks were full of grain, why would she sigh? The problem is that only the dozen or so bags above are filled with grain, while the bags below are full of sand, which is something to soothe people's hearts.
Jin Xi let out another long sigh. When Qin Xiao told her the truth, she almost died of fright. You can give as much rice as you have, and the victims will not embarrass you if you don’t have rice.But if you play this kind of flowery work, the victims will insist that you hide the food. When you are in a hurry, who will listen to your explanation?The truth is not life-important!
I remember what Qin Xiao said at the time, "There is no rice in the middle of the porridge, so I smashed my signboard. I went out of the city overnight, and I will bring back the rice within ten days! I have worked hard these few days. You help me." Just guard the pile of grain and don't let others find it. I can't let the Heavenly King come close!"
Not to mention the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu, she can't even stop the city god and kid!
Seeing the last spoonful of porridge poured into the victim's bowl, Jin Xi got up and rubbed his numb waist. Sitting for a long time hurts his body, and he usually doesn't feel it. These days, he sat in the porridge shed for the whole morning, and it was a bit overwhelming.
"Today's porridge is over, son, go back and have a rest!" After cooking an extra bag of rice, Zhou Qingniu was happier than the people who drank the porridge. Jin Xi smiled, patted his chest and assured: "Young Master, don't worry, the villain will never break his promise to Mr. Qin. If there is a villain, there will be no less food in this shed, and it will definitely arrive. Victims' Bowl. If you are very tired, don't come tomorrow, with Aunt Jin watching over you, you will never go wrong."
The more loyal you are, the more worried I am!Jin Xi glanced at Zhou Qingniu, who wanted to show his awe of Qin Xiao, and was extremely speechless.If he knew that Qin Xiao asked him to look at the food because on the one hand, he was short of manpower and couldn't find suitable people, and on the other hand, he planned to use him as a scapegoat in case of failure, what would his expression be.
To Jin Xi's surprise, just as she got into the car, Jin Feng, who had been stationed at the porridge shed to prevent thieves from stealing food, suddenly followed up and said, "I'll take you home!"
As soon as the carriage moved, Jin Xi took the initiative to ask, "Does Auntie have something to tell me?"
Jin Feng looked at Jin Xi, who was dressed in a man's Confucian robe and disguised as a man, and smiled approvingly, "The girl really has a good mind, and she can't hide anything from you."
Jin Xi accepted her praise calmly with a smile, waited for the next sentence, and only listened to Jin Feng's words: "Miss, do you know why the imperial court's disaster relief food has not arrived?"
This is what Jin Xi has always wondered. Although the canal is flooded and the waterway is obstructed, the waterway is not so difficult that a boat cannot pass it. It is unreasonable for the relief food to arrive so late.
Jinfeng sighed softly, lifted the curtain of the car and glanced outside, then took out a wax-sealed bamboo tube from her bosom, opened the mechanism with a flick of her fingernail, took out a note two fingers wide and handed it to Jinxi.
Jin Xi hurriedly reached out to pick it up, glanced twice, and there was a buzzing sound in his head, blood all over his body rushed to the top of his head, just as the carriage swayed and almost fell down.The note was not signed, and although the content was earth-shattering, it was the handwriting that made her extremely excited.Mr. Yun Zong's handwriting, which she has handwritten for several years, will not be mistaken even if it is burned to ashes!
"Where is sir?" Jin Xi asked eagerly, grabbing Jin Feng's arm.
"Sir is still in the capital and has other important matters, so I can't show up right now!" Jin Feng said in a simple way, without explaining in depth.He pointed at the note and said, "Miss, do you understand?"
Jin Xi nodded, and the two-finger-wide note drove dozens of words, and it was printed into her brain at a glance.The grain ship was robbed again, pay attention to the changes in Anyang Houfu!
Jinfeng took out the fire folder and turned the note into ashes, "Two batches of grain were robbed, and now the third batch of grain has arrived. Mr. Qin sent me a message as a last resort. Mr. Qin went to pick up the grain at the junction of the canal in person. The whole city of Anyang Let the girl sit in the battle! We must not let people know that there is no food in the porridge shed!"
"Why didn't the government come forward? He's a commoner..." Before he finished speaking, Jin Xi also understood.The looting of two batches of grain not only shows that Anyang Hou is powerful and sophisticated, but also shows that the government is under his control.Letting the people from the government take grain into the city is tantamount to sending sheep into the mouth of a tiger.
Even if the navy yamen hadn't been in collusion with Anyanghou, they wouldn't be able to take care of it right now.The Japanese pirates along the coast are taking advantage of the opportunity of the seawall and Luba to invade on a large scale, burning, killing, and plundering.Compared with the people in Anyang, the safety of dozens of coastal cities is more important.
It suddenly occurred to Qin Xiao that he had inadvertently said before that he was ordered to investigate... So he was investigating the Anyang Marquis Mansion?At the order of Mr. Yunzong?
Knowing that Qin Xiao is doing serious things and not just messing around, Jin Xi is elated for no reason. She is happy for him for a while and then feels that she is just eating carrots and worrying about it. What does Qin Xiao's good or bad have to do with her?
This guy looks like he's going to be an adult soon, and if he can't make it, he might just use this incident to gain fame for himself and take the opportunity to become an official!
From here to there, Jin Xi thought of Zhao Tingxuan for some reason. If he studied hard like him, with Qin Xiao's intelligence, he could get a half-job if he didn't care about these outsiders.But on the other hand, if Zhao Tingxuan is placed in Anyang at this time, what can he do better than Qin Xiao?
It can be seen that everyone has their own advantages, her thinking just now is obviously narrow!
Jin Xi just lowered her head to think about her thoughts, Jin Feng saw that she fell silent halfway through her sentence, and asked worriedly, "What do you want to say, Miss?"
"Since the first two batches of food were robbed, where did he get the food for his porridge?" Jin Xi hurriedly withdrew his thoughts and asked casually, fearing that Jin Feng would see his flaws.Unexpectedly, Jin Feng looked at her with a strange expression and asked back: "Miss, don't you know? Didn't you give Mr. Qin an idea to let him use your name to partner with Anyanghou's aunt Liuli to resell grain?"
"Ah?" Jin Xi was completely dumbfounded. He thought that He Huan scolded her for seducing a man to pay her money to buy food for her, but he just poured sewage on her body, but he didn't expect it to be true.There are ghosts who died unjustly in every temple, but she was extraordinarily wronged. What's wrong with her here?
Jinfeng is worthy of being the dark thread cultivated by Mr. Yun Zong, after a little thought, he figured out the joints in it, pursed his lips, and glanced at Jinxi with a half-smile.Secretly wondering how a girl who is usually shrewd in everything becomes confused when she encounters Qin Xiao's matter?With a blind eye, you can't understand anything that is under your nose.
Jin Xi couldn't help asking, Jin Feng reluctantly turned into a gossip, and said with a smile: "Young Master Qin borrowed 2 taels of silver from the Tang family, and partnered with Aunt Liuli in the name of a girl to buy grain from rich merchants at a low price. The young master came forward to sell at a high price, but the grain received was withheld by the young master Qin to help the disaster. Of course Liuli was not willing to lose money in vain, and brought people to grab the grain..."
When Liuli brought people to grab the grain, Qin Xiao stood on the stack of grain and shouted calmly, "The people from Anyang Marquis Mansion are here to grab the grain!" The thugs in the Anyang Marquis Mansion were surrounded by water, and you punched and kicked me, and you killed two evil slaves at that time.In an extraordinary period, when the crowd is raging, it is useless to kill someone. How can other people communicate with each other.
Thinking of Liuli vomiting blood on the spot, Jinfeng couldn't help laughing, "Young Master Qin is indeed a talent!"
He is talented!Not only is he a talent, but he is also a scumbag, a talent who specializes in losing recruits!
Although only listening to Jin Feng's flat tone, Jin Xi can still imagine the scene where Liu Li was almost pissed off by Qin Xiao.Others don't know Qin Xiao's wickedness, but she has been bullied by him for several years, and no one has more experience than her.
Qin Xiao must have a face that I am a profiteer and I am afraid of someone, a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.Meeting him, a famous demon star, deserved Liuli's bad luck.But for a person like Keng Liuli, the more damage the better.Who made her think viciously and take human life as a trifling matter!
"Then why is there only this little food?" Jin Xi remained calm, but applauded in secret.He didn't even think about scolding Qin Xiao as a profiteer back then, so he thought about it, but he still had some doubts.With Qin Xiao's personality, he must have collected all the food from the wealthy households in Anyang City, shouldn't that be the only thing?
Jin Feng glanced at her and said after a while, "The people in the Naval Yamen have to eat too!"
Jin Xi's brain thumped, and she stared at Jin Feng dumbfounded.All the things that happened these days didn't shock her. The navy yamen patrolling the coast had no food?How do soldiers fight when they are hungry?
She knew the situation was serious, but she didn't expect it to be this serious!
