Su Jin was secretly happy when he saw Li Zhihe's arrival, although he didn't know why Li Zhihe had delayed coming until now, but he thought that it was probably because the Lord of the Prison Army had compromised, and it was good to come, at least it showed that last night's pretense was not recognized.

"Hello Lord Jianjun, but he came in person on such a hot day, Su Mou was very reluctant not to go, come here, watch the tea!"

Li Zhihe handed over the horsewhip, cloak and other things to his entourage, and said with a smile: "Yesterday was better, and I came to visit today, how dare I miss the appointment, it's already late, and I ask Lord Su to forgive me." ”

Su Jin laughed and said: "What did you say, as soon as I saw it with Lord Jianjun, I thought that I could make friends with Lord Jianjun, and if the adult could come, Su's face would be bright." ”

Li Zhihe laughed dryly, waved his hand and asked someone to carry a big wooden box up, and said with a smile: "My lord is humble, I and Lord Su also hit it off at first sight, but there is a reason why I am late today, no, I helped my lord get some things to cool off, so it was delayed." ”

Su Jin was stunned for a moment, pointed to the wooden box and said: "It won't be a monkey brain again, let's say it first, I can't get used to it, God has the virtue of a good life, but I can't do it by eating monkey brains alive, my heart is too soft." ”

Li Zhihe waved his hand and smiled: "Last night it was General Ge who was reckless, Master Su doesn't have to mind, it's a rare thing here, it's definitely not a monkey brain, come here, open it and let Lord Su take a look." ”

Two attendants stepped forward to pry the lid of the wooden box up, and after opening it, a cold air came to the face, and the entire lobby seemed to be much cooler.

When Su Jin looked at it, he saw a box full of ice cubes and snow foam in the wooden box, and couldn't help but be stunned and said, "This is ......"

Li Zhihe smiled, stretched out his hand and gently pulled twice on the ice and snow, and suddenly revealed half of the emerald green and round big watermelon, which turned out to be a box of chilled watermelons.

"Lord Su, the cold melon is on the market, if the adult is in Bianliang, this thing is naturally not rare, but this thing is difficult to buy in Weizhou, in order to keep the taste cool, I specially ordered someone to go to the top of Longshan this morning to get a few buckets of ice and snow back, that is, to ice this box of cold melon for the adult, for the adult to cool the heat, so it is too late."

Su Jin said again and again: "Lord Supervisor is really a caring person, he takes such care of me, I am grateful, the top of Longshan Mountain is covered with snow, but it is not easy to take it, and it has to run for dozens of miles to keep it unresolved, but it took a lot of effort; Although this cold gourd is not a rare thing, it is really rare to find this thing in the chaotic land of the northwest, and the overseer has bothered it. ”

Li Zhihe laughed and said: "There is nothing difficult in the world, I am afraid that there are people with hearts, in order to get these things for Lord Su, it did take a lot of effort, but if Lord Su likes it, it is worth it." ”

Su Jin said that he liked it, and thanked him again and again, so he ordered someone to nail the lid of the box, cover the box with a quilt, and order the handyman to carry it into the inner hall.

Su Jin invited Li Zhihe into the side room behind the yamen hall, served tea, and the guests and hosts sat down to chat a few words, Li Zhihe said: "Master Su, the official went back to think about what you mentioned last night, and finally made a decision. ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "Oh? What was decided? ”

Li Zhihe said: "Since Lord Su came to the northwest, I waited in the northwest for a little longer, and some things naturally know more than Lord Su, although it is a barren town, but there are all kinds of people, and there is no satisfactory place when the war is in chaos, so some people like to talk and suspect randomly, so that there are many incidents." ”

Su Jin said quietly: "That's right, those who can't eat grapes will say that the grapes are sour, maybe they want to muddy the water." ”

Li Zhihe high-fived and said: "What the adults said is incisive, it is this kind of psychology that we will manage Jingyuan Road and Weizhou City in an orderly manner, the West Thief Qiu has not committed any crimes, and the Privy Council has also commended me several times, and some people just don't see people well, so they make some rumors out with bad intentions, so when you first come here, maybe someone will say something in your ear, and your adult should not pay attention to it." ”

Su Jin raised his face and said: "Li Jianjun, speaking of which, you still don't treat me as a friend, it seems that there is nothing to talk about between us. Su Jin shouted and picked up the tea cup, which meant serving tea to the guests.

Li Zhihe didn't expect Su Jin to be a dog, so he turned his face when he said it, and said with a smile: "Master Su, Master Su, don't be impatient, I haven't finished my words yet." ”

Su Jin frowned and said: "There is something else to say, I have already made it very clear, I just want to make a small fortune with you, you are this pie, get a few cold melons and send me away, when I am called Huazi?" ”

Li Zhihe said with a smile: "My lord is angry, I will tell you the truth, I and a few officials and generals did open some business in Weizhou City, you think, we worked hard to come to the northwest to fight, and Yu Lu is not higher than others, but he still has to carry his head to do things, which makes people naturally feel a little unbalanced, so a few of us have scraped together some capital to make some trades, and naturally occasionally use the power in our hands, all in order to make some small money for future needs; What do you think, I don't want to stay in this place where birds don't for the rest of my life, but if you want to move elsewhere, you need to have a way to go up and down, and if you don't have money, it's impossible, and please understand. ”

Su Jin nodded and said: "This is still like a word, it's nothing, you have the right not to be an official in vain, get some money to make a good future in the future, this is the enterprising heart, who will criticize you." ”

Li Zhihe said with relief: "My lord is really a bosom friend, if you say this to others, it must be a great reason to say it, but Lord Su is not delicate and pretentious at all, and he is really admired by the teaching officer; Since Lord Su also wants to participate, we naturally can't ask for it, so the official has decided, counting the adult as a dry share, and giving it 5,000 yuan a month, the adult doesn't have to come forward, just sit back and enjoy the results. ”

Su Jin laughed and said, "What's so embarrassing, isn't this a hard robbery?" If it doesn't work out, I have to make a lot of effort to feel at ease. ”

Li Zhihe hurriedly said: "Master Su, can you listen to me?" Although it is excusable for us to make some money for the future way out, but after all, it is because of the use of power, some are not above board, if you poke it, I am afraid that you will be punished by the imperial court, there is no impermeable wall in the world, sooner or later it will be known, in case one day it is found out, if Lord Su is also personally involved, won't he also be involved? And the adult is Yan Sansi's niece and son-in-law, if Yan Sansi is involved in this, how can it be good? Adults think twice. ”

Su Jin thought about it sideways and said, "So, it's good for me that Lord Overseer doesn't let me participate?" ”

Li Zhihe Zhengse said: "Naturally, for the sake of adults, I am sincere." ”

Su Jin nodded and said: "What you said is also reasonable, since Li Jianjun takes care of this official so much, how can this official not appreciate it, just according to what you say; But at least tell me what you're doing, and I'll be able to make it easier when it's time to do it. ”

Li Zhihe said with a smile: "It's all trivial business, I can't say the specifics, don't ask, adults don't ask, just sit and get money, even I don't know what kind of business they are doing, it's all handled by the people below, and it's not easy for me to come forward." ”

Su Jin laughed and said: "I understand, so I thank Li Jianjun, I will eat and drink in my mansion at noon, let me do my best, and take 5,000 yuan a month for nothing, it's really embarrassing." ”

Li Zhihe scolded secretly in his stomach, but said with a smile on his face: "What's the matter, everyone earns money, maybe I don't know when I will ask Master Su for help later." ”

Su Jin smiled and said, "Definitely, definitely." ”

Li Zhihe shirked the matter in the army, and did not want to entangle with Su Jin, so he chatted a few irrelevant nonsense and left.

Su Jin sent him to the yamen, looking at Li Zhihe's back and sneering secretly, this old fox didn't say anything about deducting relief grain and selling it for money, he didn't give himself direct evidence, they were arrogant, and as soon as they made a move, they blocked their mouths with five thousand yuan a month, and you can imagine how big the income of these people should be.

It is no wonder that the amount of grain deducted is huge, and it does not cost a penny, and the selling price is amazingly high, so it is naturally a matter of no cost and ten thousand profits, no wonder so many people take risks.

Su Jin's original plan was to break into the enemy's interior and obtain enough evidence before he could do it, but now it seems that he has penetrated the enemy's interior, but in fact, he is still excluded and has no effect. Originally, if he had enough time, he would have been behaving well, or he might have had the opportunity to obtain evidence, but Su Jin didn't have time to survive, and the people were about to starve to death, how could he wait? This matter needs to be resolved quickly.

Su Jin's mind turned sharply, and soon a plan came to mind, didn't you play dumb riddles with the master? The master will also play dumb riddles with you to see who plays who dies.
