Chapter 121: The Imperial Jade Seal(2/2)

Or, he guided you step by step just for this moment.

Wang Guan spoke meaningfully.

"Master Yu, how big is the largest rat you have ever seen?"

"The rats in the official warehouse are as big as a bucket, and they won't leave even when someone opens a warehouse."

Yu Xin said coldly.

Wang Guan knew that Yu Xin was sarcastically calling him a moth or a mouse, so he coughed dryly.

"My lord, I almost chatted to death. Fortunately, I have seen one as big as an ox."

It doesn't look like Wang Guan is joking. Besides, he doesn't dare to joke about this matter of losing his head.

Yu Xin's heart suddenly sank.

"Huh? How big a rat infestation is this? Keep talking!"

Wang Guan never dared to speak out or report it, because he was afraid that his Majesty and his superiors would think it was a strange act.

So I went step by step until I opened the warehouse and inspected the grain, and then I found an opportunity to talk.

Unexpectedly, Minister Yu did not get angry after hearing this.

What Wang Guan didn't know was that Yu Xin had seen the house of Yu Xin's boss, Zhao Mian, whose house was struck by lightning like a plowing field, and tens of millions of taels of silver were found.

When it was mentioned that a mouse was as big as an ox, Yu Xin's first reaction was disbelief, but he had learned from the past and calmed down and listened to what he had to say.

Wang Guan felt that if he extended his head, it would be a knife, and if he retracted his head, it would be a knife. Either way, it would be death.

I simply explained everything.

As early as two months ago, there were rumors among the people that rats formed a group to beg for food. At that time, Wang Guan paid no attention to it.

Rats, where are they not found?

What's more, Suzhou is rich, cats eat fish, and dislike rats. It's normal to have more rats.

It wasn't until a routine inspection of the granary that it was discovered that all the grain in the granary had been eaten by rats!

The tax collection report was supposed to be completed, but it had to be postponed to one issue.

As a result, he was chewed out one after another, and he was pushed three times in a row!

I thought about borrowing grain from the local tycoons to pay taxes, but I never thought that the landlord’s house would also be gnawed at!

Weird things happen every year, especially this year!

Logically speaking, if a warehouse of grain is eaten up, the rat problem will be extremely serious. However, in the whole city of Suzhou, it was calm in broad daylight and not a single rat was seen crossing the street.

So Wang Guan personally led his troops and guarded the last big warehouse day and night.

When Wang Guan said this, his eyes became frightened and his voice began to tremble...
