Chapter 597 Inside Story ([-])

Sun Butou sighed and said slowly. "The officials in Jiangxi are rotten from the root."

From Butou Sun's mouth, Mi Xiaowan learned a little about the root cause of Jiangxi's greed for ink. This greed for ink is not just about the food money for the disaster relief. The emperor allocated 50 taels, of which Qin Junping, the governor of the yamen, took the most money. 20 taels were deducted from Li, and then 10 taels were deducted by the magistrate's office. The real allocation to each county government was less than 3 taels, but it was impossible for all of the 3 taels to be used on the common people.

In addition to the disaster relief funds, these officials also colluded with Xu Ji's boss, first hoarding food, and then using the autumn harvest tax to squeeze out the grain stored in the people's homes, and then Xu Ji came forward, and the government secretly cooperated to clean up the city of Shangrao And all the rice shops in the vicinity, only Xu Ji's family was left alone. When the food in the common people's homes was exhausted, Xu Ji began to drive up the price of rice and squeeze money from the common people. Xu Ji did not sell a tael of silver. , half of it fell into the hands of the government. Don't say too much, just take the small catcher Sun as an example. Since the disaster these days, the government office has distributed nearly 50 taels of silver. In fact, he has not done anything. What, it was just sent from above to seal his mouth.

Knowing the whole story of the matter, Yongen already had an idea in his mind, and continued to ask. "Do you know about the case of the murder of the censor's family who returned home?"

Catcher Sun nodded. "I heard that a family of six died tragically at home!"

"Cousin, do you know the inside story of this matter?" Qin Jifeng asked, he still had some expectations for Qin Junping in his heart. Greed for ink is just greed for money, but killing people is a matter of human nature!
Sun Butou glanced at Qin Jifeng, although he couldn't bear it, he still told the inside story. "Your cousin opened another restaurant in the west of Nanchang City. During the last chat, he told me that it was the day when Yushi's family was killed. He happened to go to the restaurant to check the accounts. Several officers and soldiers from the city defense battalion were in his Drinking in the restaurant, the conversation is full of old and immortal Lu Yunyun who blocked the governor, and the waiter who served the food also saw blood stains on the knives of those people."

"City Defense Battalion!" Yong En stood up abruptly, startling Qiqi and Mi Xiaowan, but Qin Jifeng's eyebrows were tightly locked together, and his face was already a little gray. Separation, Qin Junping stretched his hand too far. If he was greedy for money, he might still survive, but if he stretched his hand to the city defense camp, the emperor would never let Qin Junping live again!
Qin Jifeng is worried about Qin Junping, but Yong En is worried about Fukang'an. Qin Junping can even mobilize the city defense battalion, which is very unfavorable to Fukang'an. If something happens, Fukang'an will have a way out All gone!
"Zhang Kuo!" Yong En shouted.

Zhang Kuo instantly appeared at the door of the inn. "Grandfather!"

"Hurry up and rush to Nanchang City immediately, tell Fu Kang'an, let him find a way to get off the official seal of the general of the city defense camp first! The city defense camp is not clean!" Yongen ordered.

"Yes!" Zhang Kuo turned and left.

Qi Qi became nervous. "Brother, is Fukang'an in danger?"

Yongen nodded. "It's possible! If he makes a move, there's no guarantee that Qin Junping won't jump over the wall in a hurry!"

"Ahem." Qin Jifeng stared at Yongen dissatisfied, saying that his father is a dog, so what is he?
