Chapter 193 Preparing to Return to Taoyuan



"So, you don't have to worry about money and food."

Xie Xian frowned: "They saw you? Aren't you afraid of being used?"

Shen Zhaoxuan spread his hands and said lightly: "Of course I'm afraid, but I don't have any evidence to prove I'm being caught."

"I always wear a mask outside, and no one knows what I look like."

"The slogan of our Freedom Church is to love the country and family! Dedication and dedication! When did we ever do anything illegal?"

"When believers are recognized on the street, people line up to welcome them. Who wouldn't like that?"

"The few small sects I overthrew outside were the real cults, committing all kinds of evil deeds, such as burning, killing, looting and so on."

"So, Lao Xie, just relax, it's not a big problem."

"The prefect of Jianjiang is hosting a banquet for me tonight!"

Lian Gui shouted, "Fuck off! Do you think you'll be safe if you wear a mask? We'll arrest you there, and we brothers will go to jail with you?"

"Bullshit! Why do they lock me up?"

"Who among the officials would talk to you about reason? Don't you know what the master is like?"

"Fuck, I'm going to tell the master..."

Xie Xian was annoyed: "Alright! Stop arguing! Lao Shen, don't go... I feel like there's something wrong, just find an excuse to postpone it."

"As for your five thousand men, disperse as soon as possible. I don't care what method you use, let's get out of here as soon as possible!"

Shen Zhaoxuan looked indignant: "Are we really going to go back in disgrace like this? You know the master, he is not afraid of us causing trouble, he is just afraid that we will not make trouble!"

"I'll be too embarrassed to go back! And it's fine if I want to disperse everyone, but I can't control the followers because they just disbanded it so suddenly. I need some time!"

"Otherwise, if we say we will disband, someone will definitely start another one. Then I won't be able to control what happens to the Zizai Sect."

"If we really create a group of mobs and cultists, that would be real trouble!"

"How long will it take you?"

"It will take at least a month for me to clear out all the dishonest people below me one by one."

Xie Xian kept tapping the table with his index finger, thinking for a long time: "Okay, just one month! As soon as possible."

Shen Zhaoxuan nodded in agreement.

"And the others?"

Wei Cai stood up and said, "It will take some time for me as well. The tunnel is only halfway dug. Recently, more and more people from the Sun and Wang families have come to guard the granaries."

"Our people can't make big moves, so there's a delay."

"I don't know why...are those big dog owners keeping a close eye on their granaries lately?"

Bai Rui at the side said: "There must be some secret that cannot be told to others."

"The porridge in the disaster relief shed outside the city has become thinner and thinner recently. Haven't you noticed?"

"I went to the government warehouse last night and found that it was quite full, but..."

As he spoke, Bai Rui took out a small cloth bag from his arms and poured it onto the table.

Grains of rice are scattered on the table, but in different colors.

"Look everyone, at least half of the rice in the government warehouse is moldy! The remaining small half is stale rice."

"Why is the porridge getting thinner and thinner? Is there any need to think about it? The government warehouse is out of food!"

"The Sun and Wang families are selling grain privately. Originally, one dan of grain cost four taels, but now it's considered good if one jin can be sold! A liter of rice is worth a lot of money!"

Xie Xian sighed: "There shouldn't be moldy rice in the government warehouse, which means there is only one possibility."

"There was collusion between officials and businessmen in private, and some people exchanged moldy rice for new rice."

"It seems that the dog owner we found was right!"

Shen Zhaoxuan laughed: "In that case... then we don't need to be polite. I will take the people below and rob them all under the cover of night!"

"How many more people can they have to guard the granary?"

Xie Xian rejected it outright: "No! At this point, it's no longer something we can control."

"Dig the tunnel as quickly as possible. Prepare more sandbags during this period. After ten days or so, you can exchange as much food as you can."

"Then let's go back to the county!"
