Chapter 173: It turns out that he is as rich as an enemy

Spring planting, busy summer, and autumn harvest is coming soon.

In the past few days, Liu Yunxiang asked the young and middle-aged farm laborers to divide into several groups and patrol the fields at night. Seeing the plump ears, slowly turning yellow, and tilting their heads, she was relieved and worried at the same time.

These thousands of hectares of crops are now a big piece of fat meat, and who wouldn’t be greedy for it?

Last night, a group of people went to steal grain. Fortunately, the farmhands saw it and drove them away, so no losses were caused.

On this day, Liu Yunxiang was looking at the account books with his intentions in mind. Lingyun Liangpu's 100,000 shi of grain had been transported and stored. The expenditures on various items were huge, and several account books had been saved.

Hundreds of thousands of taels. On the one hand, she lamented that the business would be lost, but on the other hand, she had to covet Yan Mu. He was really, really rich.

Before, she thought that Yan Mu came here to take bribes and plunder people's wealth, but the beggar laughed at her short-sightedness and said that only then could she save a few small sums of money. Yan Mu had the power in his hands. He could use his other identity to mine minerals and kerosene, and he could open cloth mills and

The Porcelain Factory became an imperial merchant. He also had merchant ships that could trade with overseas countries, and caravans that traveled to various countries in the Central Plains and the Western Regions.

The beggar smiled and said, "What do you think he is doing by opening so many banks? He is trying to prevent his huge wealth from being too conspicuous."

After hearing this, Liu Yunxiang was shocked for a long time, and finally sighed: "I didn't know."

In her last life, she had been with him for more than ten years. She was worried about the thin account book in the Hou Mansion all day long, but she didn't know that the person next to her was a golden Buddha. But if she thought about it carefully, no matter how difficult life was in the Hou Mansion,

Her food and clothing were very good, and Hibiscus arranged it for her at that time.

During the autumn harvest, the farm laborers really put in their efforts. Liu Yunxiang asked his wife and maids to help with the cooking. He also bought a few pigs and killed them to ensure that there was meat for one meal every day.

No one was there to guide her, so she carried her to the fields every day. Within a few days, both of them were tanned.

That day, she went out with her intentions behind her back. When she turned around an alley, she saw many people blocking the door of a house, and officials coming and going. When she got closer, she heard the neighbors talking.

"A family of five, old and young, all died."

"I got up early in the morning and saw his courtyard door open, so I came in and took a look. Oh, I was scared to death. The youngest girl in his family was lying at the door with a kitchen knife stuck in her back. I gave

I was so frightened that I stepped back and glanced into the room, tsk tsk, it was all covered in blood.”

"I heard it was his mother-in-law who caused the trouble."

"How to say?"

"His mother-in-law was not good-looking, but the King of Hell took a fancy to her and kidnapped her. She almost got into trouble. This mother-in-law was also ruthless. She bit the King of Hell, took the opportunity to escape, and even reported it to the police.

.This King of Hell is so powerful in Yangui City that the government did not dare to do anything to him. Not only was he released after being imprisoned for one day, but he led his men to kill the whole family that night."

"Is this what you guessed?"

"Last night, I saw the King of Hell coming with a group of people at my door. At that time, I was wondering what he was going to do. I didn't expect that he was here to kill people. Hey, it's so lawless."

After the man finished speaking, he realized that he had said too much and ran away quickly for fear of getting himself into trouble.

Liu Yunxiang had been in Yangui City for so long that she had heard of Li Batian's name. Her grain store was even robbed by his men. She didn't dare to cause trouble, so she regularly sent him ten taels of silver every month.

Everything is safe now.

When Liu Yunxiang passed by, he took a look inside the courtyard and saw two officials carrying out the body of a woman. The woman's body was unclothed and had large and small wounds all over her body. She simply didn't dare to think about what she had experienced during her lifetime.

The official couldn't bear it, so he pulled the curtain from the door and covered it.

She sighed, turned around and continued walking out.

In the previous office, He Cheng only wanted to treat his wife's illness and neglected management, which allowed the evil forces to run rampant in Yangui City. Now that Shen Yunzhou has taken office, I don't know if he has a backbone and can stand up.

The sun was very hot today, and when she came to the field, a thin layer of sweat broke out on her forehead. She quickly put her thoughts aside, let the little girl play under the tree, and then walked towards the field.

Looking around, it's golden and endless as far as the eye can see.

The wind blows, bringing with it the aroma of wheat.

When I came to the field, I pulled an ear of wheat and crushed it with my hands. The grains fell off one by one, and the color was full and bright.

"Master, the wheat is ready to be harvested." An old man came over carrying a sickle.

"Mr. Liu, if you have experience, can you give us an estimate of how much this acre of land can produce?" Liu Yunxiang asked with a smile.

The old man stretched out his thumb and index finger, "This number is indispensable."

Liu Yunxiang smiled even brighter, "I don't dare to think about it."

"We people pull weeds, catch bugs, and water water every day, just like taking care of children. These children are also up to date. Each one has a big ear, and when the wind blows, the heavy ones will bend." The old man said happily.

Liu Yunxiang nodded, "Everyone has worked hard. Once these pieces of land are harvested, I promise to fill everyone's granaries."

The old man nodded, his eyes red, "Who would have thought that our Yangui City could grow such good crops. Who would have thought that the people of our Yangui City would never go hungry."

Liu Yunxiang smiled, "Good times are coming."

"We don't trust anyone but our boss. If we hadn't followed you to farm, these people would have died of hunger long ago."

Liu Yunxiang cupped his hands and bowed to the old man, "I also rely on everyone to help me."

Take it as you say, take advantage of the day.

Everyone immediately became busy in full swing. They lined up and piled up mountains of wheat.

The sun was setting in the west, and she no longer wanted to play, and started to lose her temper. Liu Yunxiang asked the beggar to watch her, and she took her child back to the city. From a distance, she saw a group of people gathered together, and those people were all men, with different physical abilities. Strong, he still has something in his hand.

When people passed by, they hid far away.

She was riding a horse, so she could see Shen Yunzhou surrounded by these people at a glance. There were five or six officials beside him, and there was also a strong man with a beard on his face.

That figure looks like... Li Batian.

Liu Yunxiang asked the noodle shop owner who was hiding in front of the shop and watching the excitement, "What's going on?"

The noodle shop owner recognized her and said, "Ms. Liu, take your children with you, but don't get close to her. Didn't Li Batian kill a family of five in the alley? The new Mr. Shen personally led the officials to Li's house to kill Li Batian. He was arrested. As soon as he left the house, he was surrounded by Li Batian's minions, saying that if they didn't let him go, they wouldn't be able to leave alive. Tsk, this new man in Futai is also a tiger. He dares to take a few people with him. Breaking into the wolf's den, you are still trying to reason with them and follow the law."

While I was talking, there was a sudden commotion over there, and those people were raising their hands to do something. Some were holding machetes, some were holding axes, and some were holding iron rods, and they all smashed into the middle.

Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but cover his mouth. After all this, he couldn't turn into meat.

At this moment, a group of officers and soldiers came over, led by Yan Mu.

He stepped forward and shouted: "Those in front get out of the way. The Zhenbei camp has urgent military affairs. Anyone who blocks the way will delay the military plane's processing."

Everyone in front heard it, but didn't react yet.

Yan Mu shouted again: "If the military plane is delayed, they will be executed according to law. Catch them all and execute them immediately."

So the soldiers behind him dismounted, rushed forward, and arrested Li Batian and others.

Liu Yunxiang was speechless. She understood something profoundly: There is no need to excuse someone if you want to accuse someone.

Yan Mu really mastered the essence of the traitorous minister and carried it forward.

His men rushed forward, and a dozen people immediately knelt in a row. The street was about to become an execution ground.

Shen Yunzhou jumped out quickly and pointed at Yan Mu: "Yan Mu, don't be too presumptuous. Do you want to kill more than a dozen people at your request? Do you take my palace seriously?"
