After getting Li Ji's nod of approval, Xiao Mo gave the distressed county master a reassuring look before leaving the study. 【&n】

After signing the document to let Xiao Mo take charge of the county affairs, Li Ji immediately left, but instead of going to Jiangsu and Zhejiang, he went to Luzhou first and found Zhou Chang.

Zhou Chang saw an action plan written by Xiao Mo for Li Ji, and after reading it, he slapped his thigh: "This Xiao Ziheng, why does his head grow?" ”

Li Jixin said, what are you excited about? Is this really that good idea? So he asked: "Boyuan, is this method really feasible?" ”

Zhou Chang said: "It's feasible, haha...... I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, this kid is a bit of a doorway, such as here ......" Pointing to a line written by Xiao Mo, Zhou Chang said to Li Ji: "He asked you to just notify the grain merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and bring the grain to Shen County to discuss the matter of exchanging grain for mines, but he didn't let you say the price of the transfer of iron ore, nor did he let you limit the number of grain merchants, but asked for the more the better, among them, I'm afraid that this kid will play a trick......"

Li Ji has been busy enough recently, seeing that Zhou Chang is halfway talking, how can he have the heart to play dumb riddles with him? Then he said: "Boyuan, keep talking!" ”

Zhou Chang touched his goatee and said with a smile: "Think about it, if these grain merchants really come to Shen County with thousands of stones, and then find that they are fighting for Shen County...... Uh, in Ziheng's words, it's a bidding, anyway, after the grain merchants meet, aren't they all dumbfounded? ”

Li Ji nodded: "That's right, when the time comes, if these grains are transported back, the cost will be too great, and they will have to lose money, and if they stay here to bid for tenders, they are afraid that if they are delayed for a long time, the grain will become moldy, so it will be ......."

Zhou Chang continued: "They have to lower the price of grain, in short, who to buy or not, the initiative is in our hands, when the time comes, these grain merchants will have to look at the face of the yamen, and even the local squires, I am afraid that they will fight for ...... Uh, bidding, it's bidding for iron ore, Ziheng is killing three birds with one stone! ”

"Not bad!" Li Ji also smiled, and the stone in his heart was finally put down, but he was still a little worried: "What if these grain merchants from Jiangsu and Zhejiang don't come to Shen County?" ”

Zhou Chang glanced at Li Ji and said in his heart, why doesn't this son of the teacher open his mind?

"Those grain merchants will definitely come, as long as the governor publicizes the matter of bidding for iron ore in Shen County, even if those grain merchants are not interested, but there are still many businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, who want to compete for bidding, they will help you get these grain merchants!"

In this way, Li Ji completely let go of the stone in his heart, and then sat in a swaying sedan chair and came to the dock, accompanied by his master Qin Ye and a few guards.

After Qin Ye and Li Ji left Shen County, the bigwigs in the yamen were left with Xiao Mo and a martial artist Yan Eighteen, although Yan Eighteen was a head catcher, but he was also a rough and fine man, so Xiao Mo invited Yan Eighteen to Xiya, and then the two of them sat in the Yamen, while taking care of the affairs of the county, while waiting for the news outside.

I don't know if it's been discussed, anyway, early this morning, all the grain shops in Shen County posted a notice at the door, saying that the grain in the shop was in an emergency and could no longer be sold......

Hearing this, Xiao Mo sneered, and then ordered a few men to go outside and keep an eye on those grain shops.

In the evening, the servants came back, and as soon as they saw Xiao Mo, they said, "My lord, those grain shops sell grain as usual, and there is no abnormality!" ”

"Oh?" Xiao Mo asked, "Is there really nothing abnormal?" ”

The messengers all shook their heads, and one of them remembered something: "Oh, it's just that the price of grain has risen again today, and now it is six taels of silver and one stone, and each bucket has risen by another hundred yuan!" ”

Xiao Mo glanced at the poor person, and said in his heart: It's really wordy, can't this official himself be counted?

Seeing that Xiao Mo's face was not very good, those poor people walked away.

It seems that these grain merchants are not easy to get along with, and they have obviously discussed that they want to stop selling grain to force the yamen to negotiate with them, but they do not let go of this last opportunity to make money, and they actually raise the price of grain, wanting to make another profit!

The more Xiao Mo thought about it, the more annoyed he became, these black-hearted businessmen actually took advantage of the people's difficulties to make huge profits, and they really wanted to punish them well, but Zhou Chang and Li Ji repeatedly explained to themselves that they couldn't fall out with the squires of Shen County!

In fact, Xiao Mo has always wondered why the indignant Li Ji also changed his attention, until Xiao Mo came back from the Li Mansion, inquired about Li Yuanwai's affairs, and learned that Li Yuanwai was called Li Yuan, and his family was not very wealthy, but Li Yuan had a nephew, who was abducted to the capital in the early years, and there was no news, and then Li Yuan's nephew actually came to the door, and he was wearing good silk, only then did he know that after this nephew was abducted to the capital, he was sold to the palace, became a eunuch, and later fell to the East Palace, served by the prince's side, which was appreciated by the prince, so he made him the father-in-law of the East Palace, that is, the head of the eunuchs!

Although Li Yuan's nephew is just a eunuch, but after all, he is a person around the prince, and he walks around the prince every day, Zhou Chang and Li Ji also have to give the prince this face, of course, the prince will definitely not go to Zhou Chang to inform him about this matter, Zhou Chang is also after his arrival, Li Yuan came to visit once, only to know that Li Yuan actually has such a backstage, no wonder he dared to do it with Li Ji in the county!

After knowing that Li Yuan had a father-in-law who was by the prince's side, Zhou Chang and Li Ji had to reconsider, so they asked Xiao Mo not to embarrass these squires.

People who don't even want to provoke the prefect of a state and the county order of a county, of course Xiao Mo will not provoke without his might, but the food problem in Shen County has to be solved, so Xiao Mo has no choice but to let Li Ji go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang to move around, to put it bluntly, it is the same as attracting investment, but Shen County is just recruiting grain!

In addition to the problem of food, there is one more thing to solve, and that is water!

The problem of water shortage in the three towns is urgent, and now people have to use wooden barrels to fight in the river with water, most of the families in Changle Town are widows, or old and weak children, where does the strength come from?

Fortunately, Xiao Mo opened the Feng Ping position and distributed some food to the three towns, otherwise these people would starve to death if they were not tired to death, so when Lu Lu left Shen County, Xiao Mo specially explained to them, as soon as they arrived in the three towns, they would start work immediately, leading craftsmen to mine iron ore and carpenters to make windmills.

Because the windmill was too big, for the sake of insurance, Xiao Mo used steel, so that the windmill was much stronger!

After finishing the affairs in the yamen, and confessing that Yan Shibai and Lin Yiye were sitting in the yamen, Xiao Mo returned home, and as soon as he entered the door, Xiao Mo saw an acquaintance, Hu Yunxue!

The father and daughter entered the city today, although Xiao Mo asked Yu Niang to help them take down Chen Wuliang's house, but they still need to clean up, so they can only eat at Xiao's house tonight.

This was also specially requested by Xiao Mo, and Dr. Hu did not shirk it.

After returning home, Yu Niang, who was chatting with Hu Yunxue, got up and helped Xiao Mo take off her robe, then put it away, and said to Xiao Mo: "Ziheng, I'm back, let's talk, I'll go to the backyard to prepare dinner......"

Although there is Yang Yanqi, but that girl is Yang Ye's daughter, after the door, Xiao Mo didn't dare to let her cook, not that Xiao Mo didn't dare, but with his ass he wanted to know what Yang Yanqi's cooking tasted like!

Like a wife, Yu Niang hugged Xiao Mo's robe, smiled at Yun Xue again, and then went to the kitchen, and when she left, she glanced at Xiao Mo with a red face.

In the past, when Xiao Mo went home, Yu Niang wouldn't do this, but today Hu Yunxue came, in front of her, Yu Niang actually undressed Xiao Mo, that means very simply, Yu Niang deliberately did it for Hu Yunxue to see, and she was demonstrating to Hu Yunxue!

Xiao Mo shook his head and looked at Yu Niang's back, until Yu Niang disappeared into the threshold, and then asked Yun Xue, "What about Doctor Hu?" ”

"He?" Hu Yunxue picked up the teacup and took a sip: "He's fiddling with his precious medicinal herbs at home......

After that, Hu Yunxue naturally pinned the hair on her forehead, and then gave Xiao Mo a smile: "Thank you Ziheng, you actually found such a good house......

"Thank you?" Xiao Mo looked around the hall, and after finding that there was no one, he sat down next to Hu Yunxue, who moved his body unnaturally.

"Thank you?" Xiao Mo smiled evilly.

Thinking of what Xiao Mo said to himself when he left Changle Town, Hu Yunxue couldn't help blushing, and now Xiao Mo looked at him with a wicked smile, Hu Yunxue only felt that his heart was 'fluttering'.

"What are you doing? A smirk...... Appearance! ”

Giggle? The expression on Xiao Moyan's face froze, where was the smirk? It's obviously a bad laugh...... Hawkers!

Xiao Mo knew that pickled girls, sometimes they had to be thick-skinned, and when they heard Hu Yunxue say that they were smirking, they didn't care, but leaned into Hu Yunxue's ear and said, "What do you say I'm going to do?" ”

Hu Yunxue lowered her head, and her voice was inaudible: "Don't think about it, don't you have Sister Yuniang?" ”

After saying this, Hu Yunxue's eyes turned red, remembering that he thought about this conscienceless day and night in Changle Town, but he was happy in the county, and even said that the marriage was done, so he felt wronged, but he didn't find out the relationship with Xiao Mo, but he just secretly promised him, so Hu Yunxue couldn't say what was in his heart.

However, when he left Changle Town, he clearly said it to himself, isn't he inseparable from me? Why did you set up a marriage with Yu Niang as soon as you turned around?

Hu Yunxue was annoyed in her heart, and she didn't dare to look at Xiao Mo, but she heard Xiao Mo's faint voice in her ears: "With Yu Niang, you can't forget Miss Yunxue!" ”

Hu Yunxue was overjoyed when she heard this, and was about to speak, but heard Xiao Mo continue: "Without Yunxue, who will see me for the doctor?" ”

Dare to love him is afraid that his illness will not be cured, and he is not worried about himself at all, Hu Yunxue thought like this, and couldn't help but feel even more aggrieved, then stood up and was about to walk away!

However, Xiao Mo grabbed Hu Yunxue's hand tightly and held it in the palm of his hand!
