The moonlight was like silver, and the evening breeze blew gently.

The flowers were all over the stairs, and for the first time, Xiaoyaozi listened to Xiong Wei so calmly talking about entering the palace today and asking Xiong Wei to raise grain and grass.

"What are you talking about, the emperor asked you to raise grain and grass this time. How much time does he give you?"

Since ancient times, the most difficult thing to do in a war is to raise food and grass. Xiaoyaozi is not a good errand when he hears it.

If it is spring, there is still some stale grain from last year, but now it is the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, and even if there is grain in hand, there is not much left. People are waiting for new food.

It's July right now, and it's just as the autumn season is saying that the autumn is not coming, and this season is even more difficult to raise.

"How much food does the emperor want you to raise?" Xia Yun also felt that something was wrong.

"Ten thousand deniers!" Xiong said lightly.

"What?" Xiaoyaozi was taken aback when she heard this, "How can there be so many?"

"The emperor also asked me to find a way to raise military salaries. Xiong Wei said again.

"How much silver?" Xia Yun looked at Xiong Wei seriously.

"Five million taels. ”

When he heard that the emperor was going to ask Xiong Wei to raise grain and grass, he was uneasy, and he couldn't think of a way for a while, so he had to drink tea first to feel comfortable. Who knew that as soon as he drank it in his mouth and hadn't swallowed it, he heard Xiong Wei say that the emperor wanted Xiong Wei to raise five million taels of silver.

"Poof!" Xiaoyaozi couldn't help but spit out all the tea he was drinking, and couldn't help coughing twice.

"Master, Master, don't get excited. Xiong Wei hurriedly stroked Xiaoyaozi's back.

Xiaoyaozi, who has always been calm about everything, is also very excited this time. "This silver is about a million taels, I still think it's possible, so much. Your Majesty, this is obviously embarrassing you. Did he say what if you can't raise it? How much time does he give you?"

Xiaoyaozi also asked a lot of questions at once. He couldn't help but be excited.

Xiong Wei took a deep breath and said, "The emperor said that if you can't raise it, you will go to see it." By September, all the grain, grass and silver must be raised and transported to Liaodong. ”

"That's how this emperor behaves!" Sister Hua happened to come upstairs, and she also stood aside and listened to Xiong Wei's entry into the palace.

When Xia Yun heard this, she was stunned, and she couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, and said, "Forget if the amount of this silver is large." You can still come up with something. But where can I find this food? New grain hasn't grown yet, old grain!"

Xia Yun said, she couldn't go on. She looked at Xiong Wei with great annoyance, "What are you going to do?" ”

Xiong Wei shrugged his eyebrows, without a hint of ism. "I don't know!"

To be honest, Xiong Wei really has no bottom in his heart.

He paused and continued: "Yinzi, I can still do something, but I really can't do anything about this food. ”

"What can you do?" Xiaoyaozi looked at him very seriously, "This is no joke. ”

Sister Hua said, "I'll go downstairs first and help you control the wind, and you can continue to discuss." ”

Xiong Wei watched Sister Hua go downstairs, suddenly smiled slightly, and had some doctrine in his heart, and said, "Master, Yun'er, you all come here." ”

Xiong Wei whispered to them about his doctrine.

"Huh?" Xiaoyaozi was puzzled, "It's a good idea. But I'm worried about your safety. ”

"That being said, I don't think you're going to be able to do that. Xia Yun didn't agree with Xiong Wei's method, "Think about it, you want to get five million taels of silver, you alone, how can you get it?"

"Who said I was alone. I'm going to take a trip to Shandong. The more Xiong Wei spoke, the more he felt that he had the bottom in his heart.

"What do you mean?" Xia Yun had already guessed what Xiong Wei wanted to do. However, she was still not at ease, "Even if you get it." Then how do you tell the emperor about the origin of this silver?"

"One step at a time. I haven't gotten that much silver yet, so I'll get it first. I'll have my own story when I get it. Can't honestly say how I got here anyway. Xiong Wei is slowly contemplating his next steps. He is now learning to be obedient, and he knows that if he makes so much food and money, he will be killed if he can't tell it or the origin is unknown.

Xiong Wei was not as angry as Xiaoyaozi and Xia Yun, but said calmly: "Master, Yun'er, I know you are worried. If I can't raise food and money, I'll be killed, and if I can't raise food and money, I'll probably be killed. ”

"When you go to Shandong, there should be a reserve of grain in the quicksand. Xiaoyaozi also began to help Xiong Wei analyze the whole situation, "July, even if there is no quicksand, I will help you go to the south." There is grain in the south. In the south, where rice is generally fastest, rice can be harvested three times a year. ”

When Xiong Wei heard this, he felt more confident. "If that's the case, I'm more sure. ”

"I'd like to go and show you, and I hope everything goes well. If it doesn't go well, it's going to be difficult. Xiaoyaozi also said this, and he was not sure that he could handle this matter well.

"Master, there is one more place. I want you to help me get around. Xiong Wei looked at Xiaoyaozi.

Xiaoyaozi also looked at Xiong Wei.

"Master, I want you to help me go, Yanbang. I think I saved his life before, and he should help me. ”

"Don't worry, I'll do it all for you. The matter of food is wrapped around me. I'll leave tomorrow. Xiaoyaozi also made up his mind to help Xiong Wei handle this matter well this time, "I will ask the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce and the Salt Gang to show a list of self-donors who supported the Liao army and a list of the number of food and money donated." In this way, you will be able to clear the sin of unknown sources of food and money, and complete the task assigned by the emperor. ”

"Yun'er, you also have to help me prepare a list and a map. Xiong Wei continued.

"Okay! I don't need to say that. I'll have everything you need. ”

"Okay! We'll start tomorrow. Xiong Wei didn't know where a strong courage came from.

In the early morning of the next day, Xiaoyaozi hurried to Gusu and Xiong Qi rushed to Shandong.

Xiong Wei came to Shandong to meet the leader of the quicksand organization, the fake county order back then. Now he has governed Shandong in an orderly manner.

The fake county commander heard that Xiong Wei was going to raise five million taels of silver as military salaries and 10,000 deniers of food, and he also felt that the emperor was embarrassing Xiong Wei. As soon as I heard about Xiong Wei's opportunity, the fake county magistrate laughed and praised Xiong Wei for being a good way.

Xiong Wei asked him for a hundred quicksand brothers to escort food. The fake county order agreed without hesitation.

Xiong Wei borrowed someone and hurried to Beijing.

As soon as he came back, he found Xia Yun and got a list of all the rich businessmen and corrupt officials in Jingshi from Xia Yun. He decided to start robbing Kyoshi tonight.

The night was dark and the wind was high, and since Xiong Wei returned to Beijing, the wealthy merchants of the Beijing Division were panicked, because they were all robbed of some silver by Xiong Wei. After the robbery was completed, he hid the silver in the Huamanlou.

In order not to make everyone suspicious, Xiong Wei returned the silver from the furnace again.

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed, and all the people who can rob in the capital have been robbed. However, there is still a gap of 300,000 taels.

Xiong Wei wandered around Huamanlou, where should I get these 300,000 taels.

Xia Yun is also thinking of a way.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Xiong Wei stood upstairs when he suddenly heard a commotion downstairs. He poked his head out and saw that it was Wang Dong riding a fast horse and didn't know where he was going.

Xiong Wei's eyes lit up, and he thought: I know where to get it.

"You don't want to rob Wang Dong, do you? ”

"That's exactly what I wanted!"

"You don't want to die. In terms of martial arts, Wang Dong's kung fu is similar to ours. If you go and get caught by him, this matter will be exposed. Even what we did before was exposed. ”

"However, the people who should have robbed the capital have already been robbed. If you don't rob Wang Dong, then there will be no other person who can rob. I decided to give it a try. Xiong Wei said firmly.

"If you must do it, then I will do it with you. However, we need to think of a completely beautiful solution. ”

"Hmm! one last robbery. and made up all the money that was owed. ”

The most important thing Xiong Wei wanted to rob was Wang Dong's home. Wang Dong is the younger brother of the queen's mother, and he has not accepted bribes in recent years. It's just that Wang Dong's martial arts are relatively high, and they are not so easy to succeed.

And the most important thing is how to carry so much silver from Wang Dong's house.

So, everyone thought of a way, Wang Dong already had a lot of entertainment. They deliberately chose a day when Wang Dong was not at home. Then after Wang Dong's family was drugged unconscious, he began to smuggle silver.

Xia Yun was in charge of keeping an eye on Wang Dong, and if Wang Dong came out, she would send them a signal.

"Lord Wang, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, the Jingshi has not been very peaceful recently!" Wang Caizhi from the Criminal Department looked at Wang Dong and said unproductively, "Do you know that a lot of silver was stolen from my house a few days ago. Lord Wang, do you want to give me an explanation? ”

"Lord Wang, it's because your family's guards are not strict. Our house is well guarded and will not be burglarized. ”

Xia Yun listened to Wang Dong's words on the roof, and really wanted to laugh, thinking: That's because I didn't think of you before. Otherwise, Xiong Wei will definitely be the first to clean you up and steal all the money in your family, and see that you are still proud.

Xia Yun said and looked at the direction of Wang Dong's house again, and estimated that Xiong Wei and they should succeed now.

"Lord Wang, you'd better be careful. The names of the people in Jingshi have been stolen, and a big family like you will be stolen sooner or later. Another person who usually doesn't look at Wang Dong very well said again.

Wang Dong listened to these words, and he had long been used to it, and said in a strange manner: "I don't know if you are with the thieves or if you are not well-intentioned, if our house is stolen, will you be able to be promoted or rich!"

People sometimes don't know why, maybe it's jealousy, they just can't see that others are better than themselves.

Wang Dong stood up suddenly, saluted the adults and said, "If you don't speculate, I won't stay here." I'll go home and watch to see if the thieves will come to my house. ”

Xia Yun saw that Wang Dong had left so early in advance. Xiong Wei must be smuggling silver. No, she must inform Xiong Wei quickly, and then find a way to stop Wang Dong from going back so early.

The plan acted as scheduled, Wang Dong was not at home, and Xiong Wei easily stunned all the people in Wang Dong's family.

While Xiong Wei was carrying the silver, he saw a green flare flash in the sky.

When Xiong Wei saw it, he wondered why Wang Dong came back so early. Now that half of the money has been moved, we can't just waste it.

"Everyone, hurry up, Wang Dong may be back in a while. Xiong Wei was also anxious, and while asking everyone to act quickly, he tried to find a way to stop Wang Dong.

Xia Yun watched Wang Dong walk in the direction of their house, strode away, didn't care about anything, and stopped in front of Wang Dong.

Wang Dong saw a black shadow flashing in the sky, and hurriedly stepped back, and after a closer look, it turned out to be Xia Yun. He frowned, looked at Xia Yun's back and said, "Young Master Yun, why are you blocking in front of me!"

Xia Yun turned her head and looked at Wang Dong with a smile, not knowing what to say for a while.
