Chapter 28
Mr. Wu tapped his forehead to the end.

"Master Yushi, I have prepared the food for disaster relief and are about to distribute it. Since you are here, I would like to trouble you to take charge of this disaster relief!"

"Master Wu, you are really... working hard!" Ling Xi's laughter was cold and cold.

[Such a coincidence? 】

[The disaster here is serious, and there has been no government release of food. Why is it that when we come, he will send food? 】

[Could this be a trick on me? 】

[Also! 】

[If he is lying to me and cannot provide food for disaster relief, I can chop his head off openly! 】

【…】

When Mr. Wu heard this, he felt relieved again.

"Sir, it's not hard for me. I'd like to thank you for your hard work, sir... Then, Master Yushi, let's, let's put the food out right now?"

"Okay!"

[I want to see how you end up if you don’t produce food! 】

Master Wu broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, and quickly looked at the master with a shameful look: "Master, go and get ready!"

"what?"

The master responded bewilderedly.

He and a group of government officials looked at Mr. Wu as if they were seeing a ghost.

None of these people could hear Ling Xi's thoughts, so they didn't know that Master Wu's head had already rolled around on the tip of the knife.

Seeing that they were all kneeling motionless, Mr. Wu became anxious and kicked the master on the butt.

"Ah what, hurry up!"

"The disaster is serious now. If we release food earlier, we can save people earlier."

"I am the parent officer of Fancheng. If the victims die, how can I have the dignity to survive alone?"

"Why don't you hurry up and put out food and save people!!"

"..."

Mr. Wu's impassioned words were more exciting than the last.

The corners of the Master's and others' mouths twitched more and more.

——Master Wu, you are really possessed by a ghost! !

The city defense yamen has its own granary, which stores public grain collected over the years and pre-stored seed grain.

Fan Kang, the counting house guard and others went to see the public grain, while Ling Xi stood at the door of the granary, glancing around.

[In such a big granary, someone must be stealing food! 】

[If the accounts don’t match up, that’s a reason to chop someone’s head off! 】

"Master Wu..."

Master Wu cursed in his heart, but did not dare to show any expression on his face, and came over cautiously: "Master Yushi, our granary has strict control over the entry and exit of grain, ensuring that every grain of rice is recorded in the records, right, Master? ?”

Just as the master was about to speak, he suddenly heard a sneer.

[Master Wu is looking for someone to take the blame! 】

[Master is so pitiful! 】

【No problem!You can even chop off Master’s head! 】

[After all, I have to kill someone and sacrifice the flag! 】

【…】

The master thought he was hearing hallucinations before, after all, there was nothing wrong with the expressions of Master Wu and others.

But after hearing this, and the way Ling Xi looked at her, she realized that things were not simple anymore.He quickly adjusted his mind and said respectfully: "Back to Master Yushi, Master Wu is right. Every grain of grain here is strictly controlled. No one will smuggle grain out. Please wait a moment, I will Get you a brochure..."

While Ling Xi was looking through the account books, Master Wu and Master looked at each other tacitly.

Everyone is involved in officialdom.

Things like cheating, stealing, and robbery can all be done flawlessly on the surface.

Unless it is the real handler, there will never be any problems with the accounts.

Sure enough, Ling Xi didn't see anything wrong.

It was Fan Kang who realized something was wrong: "There is too little food. [-]% of it is seed grain. It is the seeds to be planted next spring and cannot be moved. Only [-]% of the public grain is available. If we calculate it now, it will only be enough for the victims to eat for more than ten days." Too much won’t work!”

But they must have enough food to last until the autumn harvest, which is five to eight times this base, otherwise it will be a drop in the bucket and cannot solve the fundamental problem.

"Oh, by the way, Mr. Wu, I forgot to introduce you," Ling Xi seemed not to have heard. She narrowed her eyes and said casually: "This Chief Fan Kangfan will be Mr. Yutai of Fancheng from now on." , starting from the fifth rank, on the same level as you, Mr. Wu!"

Fan Kang bowed politely: "Master Wu, please give me your advice in the future!"

Lord Wu returned the gift with a confused look on his face: "Congratulations, congratulations to Lord Fan, just, just..."

"Master Imperial Envoy, when was this Master Fan appointed?" Master bravely said, "Our city defense yamen has not received such an appointment document!"

"Oh, Mr. Fan's conferment document was brought by this imperial envoy," Ling Xi said very naturally without concealing it: "He just took office, an hour ago!!"

Master Wu and others were completely dumbfounded!

Since ancient times, the appointment of an official or noble has not involved a series of questions such as inquiries, inspections, palace examinations, appointments, etc.

How can anyone say that one is appointed just as one is appointed?
Fan Kang cooperated and took out his conferment document and proudly displayed it in front of Master Wu.

"Master Wu, please see, this is the hidden dragon pattern silk handwritten by His Majesty himself, used by the royal family!"

Master Wu and Master looked at each other.

This, damn, is actually true!
Where can I go to explain this! ?

"Master Fan, congratulations, you can do this...congratulations, congratulations!" Master Wu couldn't control his emotions, he was envious and jealous of the congratulations.

Fan Kang smiled and was very humble: "Oh, this is just my luck. I met Miss Ling who had the conferment document in her hand, so she sold one to me. Haha, this is all luck, good luck..."

"What did you say?"

"……Sell?!"

Everyone was dumbfounded! !
This Fan Kang, do you know what he is talking about? !

Fan Kang took the conferment document, scanned the crowd carefully, and followed Ling Xi and Chen Qianzhe's instructions word for word.

"Yes, I, the official, bought it!"

Everyone: "..."

Heaven! !
What exactly is he talking about?
Fan Kang still looked like a gentleman and was extremely serious: "Really, I bought this official... with grain!"

"..."

"What? You don't believe it?" Fan Kang became anxious and pointed at Ling Xi: "If you don't believe it, you can ask Miss Ling. She still has a lot of conferment documents in her hand. If you have the ability, you can also buy them..."

"..."

Everyone's eyes instantly brightened, staring straight at Ling Xi.

Ling Xi had been flipping through the account books. She raised her long eyelashes and looked at them coldly with the end of her thin eyes.

"I heard everything you said. What Mr. Fan said is true, but you don't need to take it to heart!"

She closed the account book with a snap.

"Because not just anyone can buy the official conferment document, it requires you to have a certain amount of financial resources, and that financial resources must be something that this censor can like."

She threw the account book to Mr. Wu.

"For example, what I am most interested in right now is food! To put it simply, whoever has food in my hand can buy an official position from me... The price ranges from seventh grade to fifth grade. Children and adults are innocent!!"
