When the people around saw this scene, excitement appeared in their eyes.
The grain collector's cheek suddenly swelled up. He covered his right cheek in disbelief and pointed at Fang Zhengyi with one hand: "Sir, you..."
“Bang!”
Before he could finish his words, another slap hit his left cheek.
This blow caused a nosebleed.
The grain collector was trembling with fear, and had not yet realized what was happening.
I felt like a hand reached into my arms and grabbed something!
Fang Zhengyi muttered, "Damn it! Give me all the money! You're only giving this little to a beggar!"
The surrounding people and the petty officials present were completely dumbfounded.
When the grain collector saw his behavior, he burst into tears.
How can this person be called an official? This person is clearly a robber.
I was happily working when I was robbed by my boss and I had no way to complain.
But he had given up struggling and let Fang Zhengyi's hands continue to wander over his body.
Soon, all the money on him was taken out by Fang Zhengyi.
Fang Zheng held up a handful of money in front of the grain collector and said grimly, "This is the stolen money you embezzled. You are finished. If you still dare to embezzle Lord Liu's grain during a famine, you will not only go to jail, but also wait to lose your head!"
The grain collector felt like he was about to collapse, and cried, "Master Fang, you misunderstood. We all work for Master Liu, and I really didn't steal his grain."
"Where did the food go? I'm in charge of food affairs, and the food that was sent out is not on the list!"
"Send...send it to the three rice shops of Sifang, Tongda and Guanglai! Lord Liu should have told you!"
As soon as the grain collector finished speaking, he was slapped in the face.
Then Fang Zhengyi said fiercely, "Fuck you! Why didn't you tell me earlier? Now everyone knows that there is something wrong with Guan Hu. How is this going to end?"
The grain collector stood there feeling aggrieved, his face covered with red marks from being slapped, and all his money had been taken away from him.
"Useless thing! You still want me to clean up your ass!"
Fang Zhengyi looked at the grain collector with a look of disappointment on his face, then walked up to the people and said loudly, "That's enough! That's enough! This bucket is broken! Take the grain back first, and we'll collect it together next time!"
"Let's go, let's go!"
Many people looked happy. Although they had to pay next time, the mentality of delaying it for as long as possible was enough to make them happy.
The woman, who was originally kneeling on the ground, crawled to the official basket, picked up the sack and began to fill it with grain.
But after putting the grain back in, it was less than 50 kilograms, and it felt half as light in my hands.
The woman looked at Fang Zhengyi in despair without saying a word.
Fang Zheng looked at her and said calmly, "Why aren't you leaving yet? What are you looking at me for?"
The woman opened her mouth to say something but did not dare to speak.
Seeing Fang Zhengyi still looking at her quietly, she reluctantly said, "Less... less."
"Something's missing?" Fang Zheng stepped forward, opened the sack, quickly threw the silver in his hand into it, and closed the sack.
He said with disgust: "That's a lot! Go away, don't cause any trouble here!"
The only person who can make decisions for me is also like this.
The woman looked at Fang Zhengyi and tears started to flow again. She covered her chest and took a few breaths, then left helplessly holding the child and dragging the bag.
Seeing that everyone had left, Fang Zheng looked at Xiao Li and said with a look of regret: "Oh, it's all my fault that I caused the trouble. I shouldn't have come out here earlier!"
"Let's go! Go back and apologize to Lord Liu!"
At this time, Fang Zhengyi's image had quickly transformed from a dandy good-for-nothing to a roadside robber.
Xiao Li's breath was choked, and he said awkwardly: "Haha... OK, I will go back with you, sir."
After playing for a few days, Fang Zhengyi felt that the time was almost right.
If Liu Xun continues to do this, good citizens will become victims of the disaster, and it will be very difficult to resolve the issue.
Arriving at the government office, Fang Zhengyi went straight to Liu Xun.
He said, "Master Liu, is it convenient? I have something important to tell you."
Liu Xun didn't understand what was going on, so he nodded, got up, and took Fang Zhengyi to find a small room.
Looking at Fang Zheng, he smiled and said, "Oh? It's rare that Lord Fang wants to discuss something important with me. Go ahead and tell me."
Fang Zhengyi poured himself a cup of tea and said, "I went to the outskirts of the city today to watch the government collect grain. I caused some trouble. I hope you can forgive me."
"Trouble? What trouble!" Liu Xun immediately became alert.
At this moment, everything related to food is a big deal!
"I saw something fishy about the official measure used by the grain collector, so I stepped forward to stop it."
"As a result, the grain collector told me that it was your instruction. The grain was sent to all directions, including the three rice shops in Tongda and Guanglai..."
Looking at Fang Zhengyi's calm appearance, Liu Xun felt a little unpredictable for a moment.
There was silence for a moment.
After a long while, Liu Xun asked tentatively, "What does Lord Fang think?"
Fang Zhengyi smiled slightly: "Jianjiang is a very difficult place for me. If it weren't for Lord Liu, I really don't know how I would live on."
"I don't care about the rest. I just want to enjoy my life."
"However, I have an important responsibility to the Crown Prince and His Majesty, and I cannot allow any mistakes to be made regarding the grain supply."
"After all, I don't want to not be able to eat mutton and get into trouble."
"So I'm telling you this specially this time. I have no other intention. As long as there is no problem with the granary in the account book, there will be no problem here."
"Tomorrow, I will go to the granary to inspect it, so that I don't have to worry every day."
Liu Xun stared at Fang Zhengyi, and began to think of countermeasures in his mind.
After spending some time with him, Liu Xun thought he had figured him out.
This person is a superficial person who is greedy, gay, and enjoys pleasure.
Not to mention the various delicious foods.
Zhou Dahai has been tortured in his house these days.
I was tied up with hemp ropes in various positions every day, and my whole body was covered with bruises.
I don't know what the prince is like next to him...
As I was thinking, Liu Xun went off topic...
Seeing Fang Zheng staring at him, Liu Xun laughed softly and said, "That makes sense. If I were in your position, I would definitely think the same."
"Master Fang... do you want to eat mutton?"
Fang Zheng smiled and nodded.
I've been wanting to eat this mutton for a long time!
"That's no problem! I will definitely help you arrange it."
"You and I are now speaking frankly to each other. I have always wanted to ask you a question. Lord Fang, do you want to return to Beijing?" Liu Xun's expression began to become mysterious.
Fang Zhengyi said without hesitation: "Yes! Of course I do! I can't wait!"
"Okay! If Lord Fang wants to inspect the warehouse tomorrow, I will go with you, and then I will find a way to help Lord Fang return to the capital!"
Liu Xun had an ambiguous look on his face and whispered, "Besides... the secret between Lord Fang and the Crown Prince will be kept secret from me!"
Haha, Xiao Fang, you didn’t expect this!
This government already knows you inside and out!
Fang Zhengyi: "???"
