After the locust disaster, my fairy reincarnation identity was exposed

Chapter 253 The murderous intention hidden inside

Jin Hairpinzi didn't know that he had been deceived by Jin Buyao, but he slowly said with a little pride: "After being bitten by a poisonous mosquito, doctors in so many medical clinics can't do anything, but well water can? And it can be done overnight? Time, so much water from wells is enough?"

She looked around at everyone: "So many people eat the water from the well, why haven't they been found to be able to cure diseases and save people before? Now it can not only detoxify mosquitoes, but also cure other diseases. What's the reason?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. Everyone was talking about the truth, but no one said the truth.

Even those who guessed just said what the reason was, or laughed and said nothing, or suddenly realized it, or chuckled and shook their head in thought.

Only Chen asked completely unclearly: "What's the reason?"

Jin Hairpinzi saw that everyone didn't understand, and Mrs. Chen helped her step down. She looked proud, raised her chin slightly, and smiled contemptuously: "Of course it's because the county magistrate asked the old doctor to make an antidote and throw it into the town well. "

Jin Buyao and the others held their breaths and remained silent, pretending to look like this, you are so awesome.

Mrs. Chen suddenly realized: "So that's how it is. So now the town well is about to dry up, and the nectar water is gone... In fact, there is no Jingping Queen at all. Everything was done by the county magistrate. Why did he do this?"

"Can't we just let the doctor treat each of them one by one?"

The golden hairpin glanced at Mrs. Chen: "Ms. Yu Chen, for the sake of calling my mother-in-law my cousin, I'm here to warn you in advance."

Chen looked at her puzzled: "What?"

The golden hairpin looked condescending: "You should have the consciousness of Mud Legs. If you don't understand, don't understand. Don't say it in front of outsiders. It will make you even more stupid and stupid."

"Although we have no outsiders here, if you are still so ignorant, then I will ask my husband to send you back, do you understand?"

Xiang Ci couldn't see Chen's expression, but she thought that Chen must be very angry now.

I really couldn't figure out why she had to travel so far and visit such a wealthy family. Even though the other party looked down on her, she still refused to leave.

When Xiang Ci exited, he heard Chen say the word "understand".

As soon as you exit, you will face a big ocean bowl.

Ye Kai handed the big bowl to her hand: "I just went to the kitchen to bring it."

It's dinner time, let's start eating.

Xiang Ci, who was grumbling with hunger, picked up the bowl and took big mouthfuls of rice.

Ye Kai and others looked at her in silence.

Xiang Ci ate half a bowl of rice before he felt comfortable. He took a sip of spiritual spring water and smoothed his throat before saying, "The Yu family should not be in the town, but in the county."

"Listening to their conversation, Mrs. Chen should be at her cousin's house. Her family is quite wealthy. Her cousin's daughter-in-law wears gold buckles and gold hairpins on her head."

Xiang Ci murmured in his heart that he didn't expect that the Yu family would have such a rich relative. He really didn't expect it.

Xiang Xinbai gritted his teeth: "Let them be happy for a while."

Xiang Xijin asked: "Have you heard any news?"

Xiang Ci nodded repeatedly: "I heard it. Mrs. Chen said that the water in the town well was almost dry and the nectar water was gone. Under the guidance of the ladies, she guessed that the water in the town well was not nectar water, but the county's nectar water. The master found someone to make the antidote and then put it inside."

She looked at Xiang Xinjin: "That's probably it."

Xiang Xinjin frowned, pursed his lips, rubbed his fingers, and his eyes sank slightly: "It seems that the town is going to be in chaos."

Xiang Ci asked anxiously: "You want chaos? What kind of chaos?"

She knew that the town had been in chaos for a while because of rising food prices.

If it weren't for the suppression by the county magistrate, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Now that the mosquito poison has been detoxified and the nectar water has been stocked up, are you going to mess up again?

Everyone also looked at Xiang Xinjin with doubts in their eyes.

"What more chaos is there? Stealing food?"

"It should be to grab food. Today's day and night are upside down. Those people have to find a way out for themselves no matter what."

Xiang Xinjin's eyes were deep and he couldn't see the end: "What else can they do besides grabbing food? Grabbing food is their only way out."

"The county magistrate originally prohibited grain prices from rising too high, and the squires had objections to him."

"Now that they don't take advantage of this time to raise prices, they will feel even worse."

"When the nectar is gone and the price of food increases, the poor will be driven to death. The poor will naturally rob them."

"Whether you live or not is the only way to go."

Ye Kai nodded in agreement: "That's right, no matter who it is, they will rebel if they have been suppressed for too long."

Xiang Ci said anxiously: "Wait a minute, what does this have to do with the squire? Do those grain and oil stores belong to them?"

"Of course." Xiang Xinjin looked at Xiang Ci with a paralyzed face, "Half of the town's industry is controlled by the squires. Especially this kind of grain and oil store is not in their hands. How can they compete with the county magistrate?"

Xiang Ci was stunned and opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

She thought that all stores were owned by individuals, but she did not expect that, on the surface, they were owned by individuals, but in fact there were many evil hands behind them.

She murmured softly: "How do you know that the town is going to be in chaos?"

Xiang Xinjin told her clearly: "When the mosquito poison broke out before, they bit anyone, and Squire and the others were no exception. They were also afraid of death."

"At this time, the nectar for treating poisons happened to be available, so the squires took advantage of the situation to give face to the county magistrate and to themselves, by building this empress temple."

"Now that the nectar is gone and the mosquito poison is gone, of course the squires will tear down the county magistrate and put them back in their place."

"It was also because I wanted to carry them back again that I wiped out the Purifying Vase Lady and the nectar water, and said the county magistrate who could make the detoxification water had ulterior motives."

"The crime of slander overwhelmed the county magistrate. The people no longer believed in the county magistrate, so they had no choice but to listen to the squires who had food in their hands."

"In this way, the squires will take advantage of this to increase prices to control the entire county and put the county magistrate down."

"That's why I said there was going to be chaos, and a big chaos."

Xiang Ci was stunned when she heard this. She really didn't expect that Brother Liu could analyze so much in just a few words.

How did this head grow?

Xiang Xinjin's voice was cold: "What's more important is that they have many, many granaries."

Xiang Xinjin said a lot because he once saw a grain store owned by a foreigner, and it was just a grain warehouse.

But as far as he knew, there were at least ten granaries in Yuanwai's house, each containing at least 500 shi of grain.

The squires all colluded together. Not to mention the county magistrate, even the state officials had to pay homage to them and treat them openly before they could do anything.

Otherwise, the squires are making trouble secretly, and it is a trivial matter if the governor fails to do anything good, but losing his life is a big deal.

When Xiang Ci learned from Xiang Xinjin that the rich in this world were more greedy than she imagined, she opened her mouth in shock and couldn't recover for a long time.

In the end, she just wanted to say that she had never seen the world of modern rich people and thought it was just like that.

But if you take a closer look, you will find that the wealthy squires here have gone further, bigger, more ruthless, and more greedy.

Otherwise, the country squire and rich man are just local emperors.

How messy is this?
