Chapter 55：

Because there is oil and grain and money, thanks to Liu Yan's blessing, in a short period of time, Jiashen really didn't notice the increase in local grain prices. +++All Tanmei Novels: www.sto123.cc

The ration of five thousand soldiers is not too much, and Xu Xiongyuan has not felt pressure yet.

He secretly greeted the mines in the hands of the local tyrant (qiang), especially the shining gold mines, and wanted to just grab it. But, did he take Liu Yan's words to heart? Even if Jing Hunan has natural dangers, if the local tycoons (qiang) unite and the surrounding garrisons are deployed, his five thousand soldiers will not be enough. Look.

Xu Xiongyuan could only hold back his eagerness for a while, patiently waiting for news from the capital, but in the process of waiting, Liu Yan gradually got his favor.

Zhao Zhou faintly felt something was wrong. He asked Liu Yan from time to time, "Is the court's anti-corruption activities really strong?"

Liu Yan snorted coldly, bitterly and furiously: "It looks like it's anti-corruption, and it doesn't use power to force people! The people above speak, the people below are perfunctory, and finally only catch some scapegoats, that's enough!"

Those corrupt officials in Daheng are so perfunctory!

Liu Yan was really angry. Zhao Zhou saw his appearance, and Zhao Zhou was embarrassed to continue asking, thinking that it might be because the area of ​​Jing Hunan was too messy, or the anti-corruption personnel had not arrived yet, or It was that the local officials had been perfunctory, so there was no big disturbance.

Although it is reasonable to think this way, he still has a bad premonition, his right eyelid keeps jumping, just don't know what will happen.

A few days later, the people who were sent to assassinate the emperor returned.

These people were very embarrassed. When they returned to the Jiashen meeting, they fell tired to the ground. Xu Xiongyuan was too anxious and couldn't do it on the surface. Standing next to the assassin, he urged: "How about, did the assassination (kill sha) succeed?" Is the dog emperor dead? Why are you only these few people left?"

The assassin leader took a breath, and after slowing down, he laughed loudly: "The dog emperor was shot by us, hahahaha! I'm afraid he will die soon!"

Xu Xiongyuan was overjoyed, patted the assassin's head on the shoulder and raised his head to the sky and laughed: "Good (gan gan), God helps me, Xu!"

Xu Xiongyuan sneered. Now, I am afraid that the court can no longer control the villain. If the gold mine is robbed, who can do nothing else?

He asked the servant to quickly lift the people up to rest, order them to make good meals, and plan to have a lively celebration.

At the banquet, everyone talked about the wine. After a few glasses of wine, Zhao Zhou heard two doormen complaining that they couldn't afford food at home today.

Zhao Zhou frowned. Liu Yan, who was sitting next to him, glanced at him, raised his sleeve and poured himself a glass of wine, and asked with concern: "Why is Brother Zhao worried (color)?"

Zhao Zhou sighed, "Brother Liu doesn't know that the food you brought back recently will be used up in the past few days. Once the military payment is gone, the soldiers will panic. I sent someone to buy the rice a few days ago. Only then did I know that the price of rice in the city has actually risen."

Liu Yan flashed a smile, and asked without changing his face (color): "How much has it gone up?"

Zhao Zhou said: "The increase was 30% of the original."
