【Father-in-law Chapter 29】A Fat Sheep

Everything she saw and heard along the way made Chu Jiao feel heavy-hearted. Halfway through the journey, she saw for the first time what it meant to have starving people everywhere.

Shen Zhen covered her eyes to prevent her from seeing, and whispered in her ear to comfort her, "Don't worry, I have arranged it, and they will be rescued soon."

"And those bad guys who embezzled the relief food..." From ancient times to the present, the officialdom has always been full of darkness and corruption, but Chu Jiao felt that those people who built their own interests on the suffering of so many people really deserved to die.

"Well, none of them can escape." Shen Zhen said in a deep voice.

After about half a month on the road, the group finally arrived in Huai'an.

Huai'an, as the hub of the canal transportation and the main point of the salt transportation, has always been rich in water and soil, and has many outstanding people. The Governor of the Jiangnan River was located in Huai'an, and Huai'an was also a major transportation route from south to north.

As the saying goes, "Purple oranges and crabs can be seen in the rivers and seas, and red rice and white fish can feed children." Huai'an, as a land of fish and rice, has a very high grain reserve. Therefore, when the Central Plains suffered a disaster, Emperor Xie Yu immediately ordered the governor of Yangzhou and the prefect of Wujun to transfer grain from the counties of Wujun, headed by Huai'an, to help the victims.

Originally thought to be a very safe handling, The result was that the urgent problem was not solved, but made it worse.

Shen Zhongxing's "donated official position" was a clerk in the warehouse of Huai'an Prefecture. The warehouse was the official in charge of grain storage, and the clerk was an unimportant assistant. To put it nicely, he assisted his superiors, and to put it bluntly, he was just a chores. Although inconspicuous, he was a person who could get in touch with the people. to the important position of grain and grass.

Shen Zhen had arranged a small house in Huaiyuan in advance. It was inconspicuous, but fully equipped. After

arriving at the house, Shen Zhen changed his clothes and went to the government office to report first, while Chu Jiao began to arrange the luggage and servants.

She placed Lin Wenyue in the guest room on the south side, and told her to have a good rest. When "Shen Zhongxing" was on the right track, she would find her family for her.

Lin Wenyue was not in a hurry to return home, because after her escape this time, what was waiting for her when she returned to the Lin family would definitely be cruel confinement and torture. She longed for freedom and was looking forward to meeting her lover as in the storybook, so she happily stayed in the house.

Shen Zhen's superior, Huai'an Cang Cao Du Qi, was a thin man in his forties. When he first saw Shen Zhen's official seal, he only introduced him to the general situation of his work in a very cold manner. But when he learned that Shen Zhen got his position by "donating", his attitude suddenly changed and became very friendly.

People in the officialdom have the most sensitive sense of smell and many eyes and ears. The matter of donating to get an official position has long been known. The news reached Jiangnan. Emperor Xie Yu implemented a new policy to relieve the disaster, which shocked the court. Du Qi also heard about it. In his spare time, he lamented with his colleagues that the amount of money required to donate an official position was simply a huge amount. If the family was not rich, how could they afford it?

This "Shen Zhongxing" looked sick, but he was unexpectedly a rich young man.

Such a rare thing happened to him, and Du Qi was very happy. Shen Zhen pretended to be a rookie in the officialdom, and was very timid

. Before Du Qi left, he stuffed a golden bag into his pocket and said goodbye to him cheerfully.

Du Qi thought the golden bag was frivolous and was a little dissatisfied with Shen Zhen. But when he opened it, he saw that it was full of 1,000 taels of silver. He counted them and found that there were exactly ten of them. He was very happy. Hua, his evaluation of "Shen Zhongxing" has increased a few points.

He has met a fat sheep.

And Shen Zhen is also very happy.

It's nothing, this Du Qi seems to be watertight in his words, but as long as he can be bribed with money, it's not a problem.

Who calls his wife a little rich woman?

Thinking of the stack of banknotes that the little girl stuffed into his lapel before he went out, Shen Zhen felt very happy.

Not ashamed at all.

Especially proud of it.
