Chapter 1227: Now that the dogs and humans are here, it’s time to take action

The residence of the eldest princess is located in Yizhou City in Shu.

The old blind man with the "heart and eyes that can surpass the heaven" sniffed it and smiled at Wu Qinhu in front of him: "You put so much chili in it, and you didn't consider my feelings at all!"

Wu Qinhu ignored him, just tried the bowl of ingredients and placed it in front of the old blind man.

The sun was scorching hot, the cicadas were chirping non-stop, and the water level in the pond in the yard was visibly dropping.

But right in this pavilion, the two old men insisted on eating hotpot, and the spicy taste was so strong that Xia Tingyu could smell it even though she was lying in the corridor from far away.

The big black tiger seemed to be even more irritated, looking at the pavilion with disgust on his face.

But the old blind man who just talked about Wu Qinhu, tasted the bowl of condiments, especially picked up the stinky tofu beside it, wrapped it in the bowl of condiments, and then put it in his mouth, oh my

The old man looked satisfied and happy.

Xia Tingyu leaned against the corridor with one leg hanging by the side. He tapped the water in the pool with his bare feet. When he saw his master like that, he smiled helplessly and continued to look at the account book in his hand.

The accounts were from the border pass of Yizhou. The taxes were naturally looked at by the General Manager and the King of Shu. Xia Tingyu looked at the accounts of some chambers of commerce, not those of business.

Rather, what we need to look at is what entered Shu and what left Shu.

I started watching this a few years ago, and it has become a habit to me.

But for now

When Xia Tingyu looked at the account of goods in and out of a Western Region Chamber of Commerce, the corners of his mouth rose: "You didn't hide it."

Lang Gou nodded, "They all know your rules, so they dare not hide it. And they know that as long as they tell you the truth about the smuggled goods, you will turn a blind eye, so those Western merchants dare not hide it. As for our Daxia Chamber of Commerce, they dare not hide it even more. After all, our family members are in Yizhou. If they are convicted, they will be exiled at the very least. They cannot hide it."

Xia Tingyu closed the account book: "That means they are going to take action."

Lang Gou was stunned for a moment and looked at Xia Tingyu in confusion.

Xia Tingyu looked at the carp in the pond and said, "The grain that came in from outside last month was nearly half less than the month before. You don't need to go looking for these grain stores. You can just gather their bosses together and ask them why there is so much less grain. Is it because fewer people are buying and there is more inventory so less grain is coming in from Jiangnan, or is it because the grain that came in was not delivered? There must be an explanation."

Lang Gou looked at Xia Tingyu with a puzzled look, not really understanding what was going on.

Xia Tingyu raised his fox eyes and looked at Lang Gou: "This is food, what do you think he is going to use it for?"

Wolfhook immediately said, "Food."

Xia Tingyu rolled her eyes and looked at Kun Ling who was feeding the black tiger meat.

Kun Ling was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's for fighting."

Xia Tingyu looked at Lang Gou and his eyes narrowed.

Wolf Hook was a little embarrassed.

Xia Tingyu continued, "The Guerwen Chamber of Commerce has 15 fewer vehicles entering Yizhou this time, but the goods are the same, such as tea and southern silk. Why are there so many fewer, and the grain merchants' grain is also missing."

Having come to this point, Wolfhook immediately realized something. "What have those bastards been helping to transport to us? And they're hiding it from you?"

Wolfhook scratched his head and said, "I'll take some people to ask."

Xia Tingyu stopped Lang Gou and said, "Just ask those grain merchants. There's no need to go to the Guerwen Chamber of Commerce. Doesn't it say here that several members of the Guerwen Chamber of Commerce didn't come to Yizhou? Bring back the inventory ledgers of those grain merchants' warehouses to me."

Lang Gou immediately clasped his fists, turned around and left without any hesitation.

Kun Ling looked at Xia Tingyu: "Your Highness, you just said you were going to take action."

Xia Tingyu stretched out her hand and rubbed her brow, then smiled charmingly: "I just said it casually. I looked at the vendors' food, but can you guarantee that there are no other ways in? The vendors all have formal procedures, at most two or three more carts. Yizhou counts three cities and nine counties, with a total of nineteen rice shops. Two or three carts of food from each shop is not a small amount. If there are more coming in from other routes, do you think it will be enough to support an army under our noses?"

While speaking, Xia Tingyu pulled at his collar, it was so hot!

Then he looked at the two old men in the pavilion over there, each taking a bite of the chili pepper, and then facing each other, apparently competing to see who could endure it longest.

After a slight smile, I secretly shouted, "Come on, Grandpa Wu!"

Kun Ling looked at Xia Tingyu. Although His Highness had said it lightly, it didn't sound right. He immediately said, "Your Highness, the spies."

Xia Tingyu looked at Kun Ling with fox eyes: "We have spies, so the other side has no ability? We each have our own abilities, and I just lost. However, what I just said was just to scare you."

Kun Ling was stunned. Are you trying to scare me?

Xia Tingyu rubbed his chin and stood up suddenly, stepping on the black tiger to wipe his feet, "I can't raise so many, but I can feed the ready-made army. Especially the hungry defeated army that came from afar."

Kun Ling looked at the back of His Highness as he walked towards the pavilion. With her brain, she couldn't understand and her mind was confused!

However, the black tiger licked the place where Xia Tingyu had just stepped on him, blinked, and looked at the big carp in the pond.

Xia Tingyu walked barefoot straight to the pavilion, reached out and picked up a string of stinky tofu, and without hesitation dipped it directly into Wu Qinhu's bowl of condiments, then ate it in one bite.

It was obviously too spicy. Xia Tingyu stuck out her tongue and fanned it with her hand. "Two old people are competing with each other, and you are joining in the fun. Is it spicy?"

Wu Mao smiled and said, "You have to bear it."

Xia Tingyu was helpless, but after stretching beautifully, she took a few sips of the sour plum juice. However, she noticed that there were two more sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, and the bowls of ingredients were all prepared. She immediately looked at Wu Mao in confusion.

Wu Mao glanced at the two old men, then looked at Xia Tingyu, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

Mainly, this is hard to say.

But seeing Xia Tingyu squinting at him, Wu Mao smiled and shook his head, indicating that he couldn't say anything.

Xia Tingyu immediately turned around and looked at the old blind man.

The old blind man slammed the table and said, "Young man, don't you know how to give way to an old man like me? I am of the same generation as Li Yunxian and the others. When I was in the underworld, you were still studying at home! You bastard!"

Wu Qinhu said, "Wu Mao, remember this, the old master lost again this time. When you meet Zhuge Jia, ask him for the money."

Wu Mao immediately took a pen and wrote it down in the notebook.

Xia Tingyu pursed her lips and tried not to laugh, but immediately took the sour plum soup and handed it to her master.

The old blind man cursed: "It's spicy for me. People from the south can't make this. This hot pot is delicious, but it's too spicy."

The old blind man drank a few big gulps of sour plum juice happily and said to Wu Qinhu: "It's a useless thing, but it's so powerful!"

Wu Qinhu said with a smile: "After you have practiced well, go to the capital and defeat the old Taoist priest. He will definitely be a joke."

The old blind man was about to speak, but he couldn't say anything. That old dog really knows how to play this game! Especially when he is sure to trick others into playing with him.

But the old blind man turned his head to face Xia Tingyu: "Girl, don't help me scold him!"

Xia Tingyu immediately looked at Wu Qinhu: "Grandpa Wu is so mean! He has no respect for the elderly at all!"

The old blind man nodded and said, "Yes, that's right."

Wu Qinhu didn't say anything, but put the mutton into the pot: "The person at that position is about to arrive soon."

Xia Tingyu was puzzled for a moment, and looked at Wu Qinhu and the old blind man, and then at Wu Mao.

The old blind man said, "After the fight is over, the dog will probably come here first."

Xia Tingyu was a little confused.

The old blind man continued, "Girl, go down to the gate of the mansion to pick someone up."

Xia Tingyu said, "Senior who came from the no-man's land?"

Wu Qinhu picked up the mutton and dipped it in the bowl of sauce. "The dog is Yu Taohua, so there is no need to catch it. It will come here by smelling the scent. The man is an old poisonous creature. He should be well-educated and polite and go through the front door."

Chew the mutton in your mouth slowly.

The old blind man said: "Now that everyone is here, Zhang Zi should die. There is no place for him to live in this peaceful and prosperous world."

After that, the old blind man frowned and said, "Catch the tiger, put the hottest one in the dog's bowl, let the dog die of spiciness! Let him steal my chess pieces back then!"
