Molested Zulong at the beginning

Xiao He was stunned, and said incredulously, "How...how is this possible? I have prepared food for nearly a month, and now it's only been half a month. How could there be no food?"

The attendant wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "I don't know, my lord. We originally had enough food, and we gave rice porridge twice a day. The plan went smoothly, but for some reason, recently, the refugees who received the porridge Suddenly there are many more."

"Consumption has suddenly increased several times. If this continues, our granary reserves will not be able to sustain it."

Xiao He bit his white index finger, and after thinking for a long time, his almond eyes were startled: "It's bad, I fell for it, it must be that group of remnants of the Six Kingdoms secretly playing tricks, pretending to be refugees and mixing in with the crowd, deliberately consuming our food reserves, so that Sooner or later, Pei County will fall into chaos like Nanjun."

The attendant was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Then... then what should I do, should I stop giving food?"

Xiao Hehao bit his index finger, and said solemnly: "No, now that rumors are spreading and people are panicking, once we stop food distribution, those remnants of the Six Kingdoms will easily turn into a large-scale riot with just a little instigation."

"Then...then what should I do?"

"From tomorrow onwards, when we send people out to distribute porridge, we will strictly check to prevent anyone from getting involved. At the same time, we call on the refugees to clean up the official roads. If we can support one more day, let's count it as one day. I hope Xianyang's disaster relief food can be shipped sooner. come on."

Xiao He said so, but her tone did not have much confidence.

After all, she knew very well that it would take at least a month for the food in Guanzhong to be transported, but she couldn't last that long.

What's more, there are real and fake among these refugees, and she doesn't have that much energy to distinguish them one by one.

"Hey, old lady, I'm here to see you."

Just after the depressing atmosphere in the study room, a woman's voice with a hippie smile came from outside the door.

This is a woman who looks about 25 or [-], and is quite charming Yujie type, with black hair coiled up, and a wooden hairpin pinned to it, which is extremely simple.

As for the clothes, it was more casual, wearing a long white skirt, wrapped in a black coat to avoid the cold, and the clothes were not arranged properly.

The thin fabric is almost stretched by the chest, and the skin looks very smooth and beautiful. A pair of round and plump long legs are constantly walking under the skirt, and the delicate jade feet are wearing a pair of simple clogs, giving people a sense of freedom and casualness. sexual feeling.

With a straw in her mouth and a jug of wine in her hand, she looked at Xiao He in front of her with a playful smile.

The attendant frowned as he looked at the disheveled woman in front of her who didn't understand the etiquette at all.

She looked at Xiao He and asked if she wanted to expel this woman: "My lord..."

Xiao He shook his head slightly, and said: "This person is my acquaintance, you can step back for now."

"Yes."

The attendant nodded and stepped back.

Only then did Xiao He turn his gaze to the woman in front of him: "Liu Ji, as the head of the Sishui Pavilion, you are not staying in your Sishui Pavilion, why come to my place if you have nothing to do?"

Liu Ji's big peach eyes rolled, and he looked at Xiao He with a flattering expression: "Of course I haven't seen Mrs. Xiao for a long time, and I really meet each other in my heart, no... I brought a jug of good wine to see you gone."

Xiao He glanced at the wine in her hand, and said with a smile: "Oh, it turned out to be a good wine from Guanzhong, burning knives, I remember this stuff seems to be used in several jars, why are you Liu Ji so generous today. "

Liu Ji sat down skillfully, poured a glass of wine for Xiao He with a smile: "Come, come, try this rare good wine."

"Hiss...it's really good wine, no wonder it's so expensive."

After Xiao He took a sip, he felt the hot feeling flowing down his throat, and the warm feeling emanating from his body, and immediately said: "Okay, I've drunk this wine too, now you can say, this time What else do you want to ask me?"

Liu Ji curled his lips: "Look at what you said, am I, Liu Ji, that kind of person?"

Xiao He laughed a little and said: "Someday you Liu Ji will come to my place, and if you don't order something to go back, you, a weasel, brought something to the chicken to pay New Year's greetings, you must have some conspiracy."

"Hey, I really can't hide it from Mr. Xiao, this time I really want to ask Mr. Xiao something."

"what's up?"

Liu Ji rubbed his hands together, and said with a sneer, "I was originally in charge of escorting a hundred or so prisoners to serve corvee service, but it rained heavily recently, and I accidentally lost sight of them on the way. , a set of armor will be punished."

"You also know that I usually like to gamble and play. My pocket is empty and I don't have any spare money. I really can't afford this money, so I thought about borrowing some money from you, Mr. Xiao. After we get over the difficulties, I, Liu Ji, will definitely Repay tenfold."

Xiao He gave her a funny look: "I knew you Liu Ji didn't have good intentions, you can exchange this sheep for a sheep, you catch my sheep every day, and you come to borrow money when you have nothing to do, and you will soon be plucked by you." Bald."

Liu Ji rubbed his nose, and said embarrassedly: "We in Pei County, you are the one who has more money in the hands of Mr. Xiao."

Xiao He shook his head helplessly: "If it was the past, I would have lent you, but I'm afraid I can't do it today."

Liu Ji's peachy eyes couldn't help but be taken aback: "What's wrong?"

Xiao He looked at it with complicated eyes, and with the dancing candles beside him, he murmured: "I, the county magistrate of Pei County, will soon end my term, and something will happen in Pei County soon."

"Before the situation is completely out of control, you should hurry back and tidy up and salute, and leave Pei County as soon as possible. After a while, if you want to leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to."

Liu Ji's big peach eyes suddenly froze.

Is something going to happen in Pei County?

Chapter 120 Two Big Fat Sheep

"Is there going to be chaos in Pei County soon..."

Wearing wooden clogs, Liu Ji came out of Xiao's residence. She put one hand between her collar, revealing her white and attractive collarbone, and with the other hand, she was playing with a full purse.

Accompanied by the continuous falling of the money bags, there was a "crispy" sound of copper coins colliding, obviously there were a lot of them.

It was she who asked for... ahem, borrowed money from Xiao He.

Since Xiao He really couldn't beat her, and the situation in Pei County was getting more and more chaotic recently, Xiao He didn't know how long he could last, so he simply lent her a sum of money to pay the fine.

As the head of the pavilion, he lost sight of all the people he was escorting. This was a big dereliction of duty. He had to pay for several sets of armor.

Now with this money, her life is saved.

After all, she idles around in Pei County every day, not doing business.

Today, the position of the pavilion chief was paid for by my old lady who spent a lot of money on it.

If not only losing his official position, but also implicating his family, the old lady would pick up a stick and beat her to death in anger.

If it was the past, she would be happy to celebrate this much money in exchange for a jar of fine wine.

However, now Liu Ji is completely out of the mood to drink.

According to the news from Xiao He, after the successive impacts of natural and man-made disasters such as floods and skyrocketing food prices, the surrounding area is now in chaos.

The bereaved families of the Six Kingdoms continued to take advantage of this opportunity to spread rumors. Coupled with the fact that the food provided by the government for disaster relief was bottoming out day by day, the conflict between the refugees and the government intensified.

If the food in Guanzhong cannot be transported within half a month, it will be a big deal, and Pei County is no exception.

But the problem is, according to Xiao He's calculations, the food in Guanzhong cannot be delivered within half a month anyway, and there will be chaos here soon.

In this case, even if she pays the fine, she may not be able to work for a long time as the head of the pavilion in Surabaya.

That being the case, she might as well use the money to recruit some people to protect her own safety.

And if the situation is chaotic, you can also take the opportunity to make a difference.

Liu Ji played with the purse in his hand, and murmured with a serious expression on his face: "This is the capital for my Liu Ji to turn around. You must use it carefully and spend the money wisely. After all, this is from Master Xiao. Easy to borrow."

"big big big!!!"

"Little!!!"

At this moment, there was a sudden noise in the distance.

Liu Ji's footsteps paused, his big peach blossom eyes looked along the prestige, there was a gambling house in the distance, a group of gamblers in common clothes were standing around the table, waving and shouting from time to time.

Sometimes someone was excited and held a lot of copper coins in his arms, and sometimes someone knelt on the ground and hugged his head in annoyance.

She looked at the excited crowd, then looked down at the purse in her hand, rubbed her chin and murmured, "It's hard to do anything big with such a small amount of capital, why not... I'll go in and take a gamble, so If you have more capital, you will be more confident in doing things.”

"I feel it. I am lucky today, and I will definitely make a lot of money."

Thinking of this, she confidently held the money bag in her hand, and walked straight into the casino.

.......

........

"This is Pei County..."

Bai Sule's horse stopped, raised the bamboo hat on his head, and looked down at the county town in the distance from the high field ridge.

There are several sheds on the street in the distance, and the servants are constantly stirring the rice porridge in the pot, forming a long queue in front of the sheds in an orderly manner.

There are women with children in their arms, and white-haired old men. It is so dark that there are thousands of people on this street alone.

Apparently, they were all displaced people who were affected by the flood.

Compared with other places where people are in panic, gossip, and frequent conflicts, this place is relatively stable, which is enough to see that the county magistrate here has handled it properly.

Wang Jian drove his horse over and said in surprise, "The county magistrate here has some tricks."

"Naturally, she is Xiao He after all."

Bai Su didn't seem surprised at all, but couldn't help sighing.

Wang Jian looked at Bai Su curiously: "Young master seems to have a high opinion of this woman named Xiao He, is she very powerful?"

"It's not a question of whether she's powerful or not, she's the kind of rare..."

After pondering for a while, Bai Su looked at Wang Jian: "You understand what I mean."

Wang Jian asked with great interest: "So this person is a great talent in managing internal affairs and coordinating logistics. I don't know how this person's talent compares to your son?"

Bai Su stroked his chin, and said, "A firefly is comparable to a bright moon, how can the brightness of a bright moon be compared to a firefly?"

He is not self-effacing, Xiao He is one of the three masters in the early Han Dynasty, in terms of single-round talent, and historical achievements, he is especially above Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Young.

With such a talent as Wang Zuozhi, he is certainly not an opponent in terms of internal affairs.

After all, his advantage lies in his strategic vision and thinking and cognition, which are far beyond this era, not in his delicate understanding of people's hearts.

But Wang Jian didn't believe it at all, and said with a smile: "Young master is too modest. If you are so talented, you are willing to be a firefly, and there will be no light in the world."

Seeing that she didn't believe her, Bai Su didn't explain too much.

He looked at Pei County in front of him, and said fighting: "We have come all the way in the starry night, and we are a little tired on the road, let's go in and have a rest."

Wang Jian looked hesitant and said: "Young master, don't we wait for the follow-up people to come?"

In order to get to the front line as soon as possible, Bai Su did not follow the army slowly.

Instead, let the army advance slowly under the banner, deliberately let people along the way see it, to attract people's attention, and at the same time calm people's hearts.

As for him, he went directly with Wang Jian, with only a hundred or so escorts, all the way through the night and starry night, the horses stopped and the horses were tired, so they changed horses at the post stations along the way, and hardly had a rest during the thousands of miles.

According to Bai Su's words, this is called the speed of soldiers, so that they can catch the survivors of the Six Kingdoms and others by surprise.

But there were not many guards around, so it was too risky to just enter the city so casually.

Bai Su smiled and said: "General, there is no need to worry. I, Bai Su, am just a nobody. My reputation is limited to Xianyang. Looking around the world, few people know me."

"Besides, the team from Xianyang is still hundreds of miles away. Who would have thought that we would come to the front line at this time?"

"This is to grasp the local situation one step in advance, so as to prepare for the future."

Seeing Bai Su's firm attitude, Wang Jian didn't try to stop him.

She nodded, and walked towards Pei County together with Bai Su.

Pei County.

"Damn it, have you lost it all again..."

Like a salted fish that had lost her dream, Liu Ji came out of the casino weakly, her eyelids twitching from time to time.

After an entire hour of gambling, not to mention making a fortune, all the money borrowed from Xiao He was lost, and at the same time, there was not a penny left, and a whole debt was owed.

If not, not only would she lose her fingers, but she would also be taken away by Xia Jun and sent to serve corvée outside the Great Wall.

Thinking of her miserable life in the future, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Where should I borrow some more money to replace this debt?

Xiao He?

It can't be done, Xiao He has already lent it to her once, and will not lend it a second time.

Go back to my old lady, what does the elder sister want?

That old lady didn't beat her to death.

Liu Ji sat on the edge of the door with a straw in his mouth and sighed.

Just when she didn't know what to do, there was a sound of horseshoes in the distance.

I saw a handsome young man in white, riding a maroon horse, walking slowly from a distance.

Dressed in elegant white clothes, like a nobleman in troubled times, her big peach blossom eyes could not help but freeze for a moment.
