Chapter 665: Private visit to the micro server (2)
Mu Qianyu poured wine for the imperial censor one after another, but he did not get the words out of his mouth as expected. When Zhao was about to get drunk, he resolutely left the table and walked back to his hotel with the wine given by Mu Qianyu.
cabin.
Mu Qianyu held his chin up depressedly and gave away a bottle of wine for nothing. It was really a loss-making deal.
But on the other hand, she was very satisfied with the quality of her officials. She also had to go to the city in Hanzhou, and she wanted to see what was going on there.
Since you have become the emperor of this dynasty, you cannot just survive for yourself, you must also be responsible for the people of this dynasty.
Two days later, we arrived at Hanzhou City, the seat of the governor of Hanzhou. This is where the spaceship docked. From then on, we had to go on our own wherever we went.
After Zhao Yushi and Mu Qianyu said goodbye, they got into a car pulled by a golden-eyed beast prepared by the inn and headed west.
Mu Qianyu also hired a car behind him, also heading west.
There are five cities lined up in the west of Hanzhou City. Mu Qianyu didn't know where Zhao Yushi was going, so he could only ask Xiaoruo to keep an eye on them all the way and then follow behind.
Hanzhou is so big that even riding a golden-eyed beast took two days to reach Zhao Yushi's destination, which was located in Shacheng, the northwestmost city in the entire dynasty.
Mu Qianyu didn't know much about the cities in her country, but she had heard of Sha City because it was a famous mining city and produced spiritual stone mines.
She had always been very fond of money and was very keen on it, so she immediately said to Xiaoruo and Nannan in the car: "This is a place where mines are mined, and prices may be high. Be careful when buying things in the city."
Nannan and Xiaoruo both blinked their watery eyes, with the same confusion in their eyes. Those who didn't know it really thought they were biological sisters.
"Anyway..." Mu Qianyu looked at these two cute things and couldn't say anything else. He simply said: "It doesn't matter. You can buy whatever you want. I just said it casually. It's not important."
Nannan and Xiaoruo suddenly burst into laughter.
Mu Qianyu nodded and thought to herself, she is rich, she now owns an entire dynasty, so she shouldn't feel bad about spending some money.
Nangong Zhi sat next to her and shook her head with a smile: "It's not as exaggerated as you think. Although Shacheng produces ore, people live an ordinary life and prices are not high."
"Huh?" Mu Qianyu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is it normal to mine?"
She thought about some places in her previous life where she could get rich by relying on mines. Just thinking about it made her so sick that she even wanted to rob in her dreams.
Nangong Zhi nodded slightly: "Lingshi flows to various places, not just in one place."
Mu Qianyu didn't say anything this time, but opened the car curtain.
We have entered the city at this time, and we can see that there are not many people on the streets, and the small vendors on both sides are also in twos and threes. The large restaurants not far away are also empty.
You must know that it is evening at this time, and it is supposed to be a lively time, but instead it is a bit depressed here.
"Is there a small population here?" she murmured. After all, this is a border city and may be affected by wars.
Nangong Zhi shook her head slightly: "I just pass by here more times, and I don't know the details."
Mu Qianyu did not expect a national master to understand the situation in each state capital, so he followed Zhao Yushi all the way. This was the most direct way to understand this place.
After staying at the inn, she quietly followed Zhao Yushi to the prefect's Yamen, paid a visit, and then directly asked the prefect to take him to see the mine.
The mine was in the countryside. When Mu Qianyu followed it, he saw rolling mountains, and then countless bare-chested people coming down from the mountains carrying ore on their backs.
Just a glance, there are at least tens of thousands of miners. In the early spring, these people are sweating and stumbling. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, these people do not have a smiling face, because there are always people with whips to drive them away.
In addition, there are some monks standing high on the mountain range, who look like they are ready to use force to deal with the miners at any time.
This kind of scene can be seen in major mining areas. Miners are the lowest level of coolies. Ore merchants have never treated them well. It is not surprising that they are treated like animals.
But the prefect began to look unhappy, as if he was afraid of something.
Zhao Yushi finally spoke: "Master Magistrate, who is in charge of this mining area? I also want to see it."
"It's Boss Qian. Boss Qian rents money to the government every year, and this mine is rented to him for mining." The prefect said with an apologetic smile, but his smile was slightly embarrassed and panicked.
Zhao Yushi said directly without any nonsense: "Where is Boss Qian? Take me to see you."
"Sir, Boss Qian must have gone on business. It's already getting late, so you might as well go back and rest early. See you tomorrow."
Zhao Yushi stared at the magistrate and frowned: "I just want to see him today. No matter where he is, please send him a message! I am waiting for him in the government office."
Mu Qianyu nodded secretly, he is really an upright and courageous scholar, very good.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yushi came to the magistrate's Yamen with several of his entourage, and sat in the lobby. It seemed that he was prepared to wait here all night.
After that, Mu Qianyu followed the prefect. I have to say that the earth attribute tracking was very suitable. The prefect walked to the backyard without noticing.
There was a fat middle-aged man walking in the backyard. When he saw the prefect coming in, he asked: "Sir, what's the matter?"
"It's a tough argument. I think he already knows what happened between us. This is the censor from the imperial city." The prefect said with a reproachful look on his face: "Did you leak the news? Otherwise, how could we have been arrested by the censor?"
Keep an eye on."
"Governor Liu, is there any point in holding people accountable when the matter has reached this point? No matter what, we are grasshoppers on the same rope, no one can escape." The fat middle-aged man said angrily.
"Okay, then what should we do? Boss Qian, I am counting on you now."
"Since we can't escape, let's meet him and see what he has mastered." The fat boss Qian snorted coldly: "If he is just a mere scholar, I don't believe there is anything difficult to deal with.
.”
Mu Qianyu, who was hiding underground, raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't come here in vain. She obviously had something to do, and according to her observations along the way, it was not a big deal.
However, the two did not decide to meet on the same day, but waited until the next morning before walking around to the front door and towards the lobby.
That night, Mu Qianyu slept in an inconspicuous small room in the government office, and when Boss Qian arrived in the lobby, he quietly followed him.
The hard-hearted Zhao Yushi didn't sleep all night. He had been flipping through the accounts of the prefecture's Yamen in recent years. The more he flipped through, the colder his face became.
The magistrate stood by and broke into a cold sweat. The magistrate in Xinxiang had such a strong aura that he felt out of breath just standing there.
