Chapter 31
Although Wang Hu is a rough man who can only read a few words, he is not stupid. He knows that Jing Yuan must have something important to do, otherwise he would not have found this place, and he would not have used such an expression and such a tone.Jingyuan's business is his business, Wang Hu's heart became hot, and he lowered his voice: "But according to my sister's order!"

Jingyuan looked around and quietly handed over a note.As if nothing had happened, Wang Hu secretly took it and hid it in the book that registered the number of grain bags.

In the early morning of the second day, before dawn, the warehouses of the Xiao Manor were already full of workers from various branches, waiting to carry today's grain.

Wang Hu yelled loudly at the side: "Xin'an Street Branch in the South District, 350 shi; Hongjie Branch in the North District, [-] shi..." After managing the warehouse for a long time, he has developed a loud voice.

Following the number that was called, they began to carry the grain one by one in order, back and forth in a hurry. Manager Liu of the Chenghuang branch of another branch looked anxious, his eyes looked and looked, and Wang Hu didn't see anything In response, he seemed to be impatient, and ran over and asked, "Boss Wang, look at this warehouse, one side is so busy, the other side is idle, can't you just ship the goods together?"

Wang Hu said sternly: "The other side is the official rations collected, this should not be confused, otherwise who will be responsible if something goes wrong?"

Guanshi Liu scratched his head, thought for a while and said: "Look at the queue, I don't know when it will be. It will be bad if it delays the opening of the door in the morning. Besides, it's not all the food of the Xiao family." Well, later you can fill it in with the one here, won’t it be the same? In the worst case, I’ll take care of it if something goes wrong, it’s all right for the head office!”

Wang Hu thought about his proposal seriously, and it was indeed the reason, so he nodded and said: "That's right, yes, Manager Liu, you can move the five hundred shimi from here!"

Guanshi Liu took five hundred shi of grain and headed towards the City God. They went back early today, but they had a good start. Guanshi Liu was in a good mood.

From a distance, I saw that the shop assistants were still opening the door to clean and tidy up the shop. Guanshi Liu had already called out before he arrived at the Chenghuang branch: "You guys, hurry up and get the food!"

"Yo! Manager, this morning!" A sweet-mouthed guy greeted.

Liu Guanshi's complacent affection was beyond words: "This is called doorway. You have to watch and listen more to have more connections!"

While Guanshi Liu was still imparting his experience triumphantly, the guy on the opposite side looked terrified and stared behind Guanshi Liu with wide-eyed eyes.

Guanshi Liu frowned, so he didn't know: "What time is it, and you're still watching the fun, hurry up and work!"

"Don't move, the government office handles the case and accepts the inspection!" Liu Guanshi only heard a shout from behind, panicked for a while, turned his head, and saw a group of officers and soldiers lined up majestically behind him.

Guanshi Liu had never seen such a market before, and he was stunned at the moment, not knowing what to do, his hands and feet trembled.

The leading officer said: "Someone reported that you secretly sold official food, who is in charge here?"

Guanshi Liu was even more excited, his eyes involuntarily glanced at the food in the car beside him, and the word "official food" was written on each of the food bags. The big black characters seemed to stand out, very obvious, and looked very scary.

The officers and soldiers looked at Liu Guanshi's eyes, smiled coldly, and tapped the big black characters on the grain with the knife in their hands. Selling official food is a capital offense, come with us!"

Guanshi Liu felt that the sky was dim and the ground was dark, and he was dazed, not knowing what to do. The officers and soldiers took over the grain truck and brought Guanshi Liu to the government like a puppet.

At this time, Xiao's mansion was still as usual, there were few people coming and going on the street in front of the gate, and the servants in the mansion were in charge of their own affairs.Sitting alone in the study, Xiao Nianyou calculated the extra income that this donation of money and food would bring.

Liuli Kingdom has a population of 300 million, about 100 million households, and only a piece of land in the capital. The monthly sales of salt is 30 taels, and the monthly profit is 10 taels, which is 120 million taels a year. After deducting manpower The Xiao family wanted to enter the salt industry many times but failed. The government controlled it tightly. This time, he left the temptation of big profits and even promised to fill the emperor's treasury, but Xiao Nianyou still made a lot of money. sent.

The emperor was ruthless and he would throw at most two or three million taels of silver into the treasury. Anyway, Xiao Nianyou could have seven or eight million taels left over. The money and food donated this time are really worth it.

Just when Xiao Nianyou was complacent, someone shouted from a distance: "Young master! It's not good! Young master! It's not good!"

The one on the left is not good and the one on the right is not good, Xiao Nianyou was furious, the good mood just now turned into anger in an instant, he walked out of the room leisurely, and angrily scolded: "Why are you panicking, yelling, you are disrespectful!"

The visitor didn't have time to reply, so he bent down and gasped for a few breaths, then said intermittently again: "Master, it's not good..."

Xiao Nianyou frowned, this person really can't speak, but he didn't say anything after all.

The person who came finally finished his sentence: "The government said that we secretly sold government food and got all the stolen goods. Guanshi Liu has been arrested and taken to the government office."

"What? There is such a thing?" In the business world for so many years, Xiao Nianyou has long been calm about honor and disgrace, but he still cried out.What is a bolt from the blue, this is it!Selling government food privately is a capital offense.

As soon as Hua Hua finished reporting the letter, the people from the government over there had already arrived at the Xiao residence.The copper ring of the gate was knocked loudly, and the voices of officers and soldiers were heard: "Open the door! Open the door quickly!"

After a while, the gate of Xiao's house opened, officers and soldiers rushed in like water, surrounded Xiao Nianyou and others, seeing this situation, the servants of Xiao's family panicked and didn't know what happened, they whispered but dared not move.Hearing movement in the backyard, he also turned pale in panic, and was rushing towards the gate.

The leading officers and soldiers stepped forward, clasped their fists at Xiao Nianyou and said, "Master Xiao, I think you already know the news, and it is clear what crime you have committed. Please, Master Xiao, come with us!" This officer and soldier is also a Tactful, he doesn't know if Young Master Xiao is really convicted, he just needs to bring the person back to complete the task, and treat Young Master Xiao with courtesy because Young Master Xiao is famous or a celebrity in front of the emperor, and is a new canonization The father of Princess Fengying, he won't force him with a wink.

After all, Xiao Nianyou is a person who has gone through storms, knowing that this encounter must be over, he tidied up his clothes slightly, held his head high, and said to the leader of the army: "Let's go."

Du Zhongheng, the manager of the Xiao family, said anxiously: "Master, are you really going?" The guards of Xiao's mansion gathered one after another, holding weapons in their hands, looking at the people in the government aggressively, as if as long as Xiao Nianyou gave an order Then go to war immediately.
