Chapter 170: Shuzhou Escort Head Inquires for Information

The six escort leaders rushed from Chen County to Anping Prefecture in one breath without sleep. Even after going to Qian's house and drinking some tea, they were still hungry and thirsty.

After the waiter brought the tea, wine and food they ordered, they couldn't wait to eat and drink...

……

"Zhou Tou, our people are still in Chen County. How are we going to drive away those ox carts and horse carriages later?"

After eating half full, Liu Biaotou couldn't help but ask again out of curiosity.

"The manpower problem is easy to solve. Anping Prefecture also has an escort agency. We will go and hire people later."

"What a good idea! Zhou is really smart. Why can't I come up with this good idea?"

After hearing what Captain Zhou said, Captain Liu was suddenly enlightened and praised sincerely.

The other four escort leaders also nodded repeatedly to show their approval.

"Thank you, Captain Liu!"

"Everything about today is weird. If we go back like this without knowing the reason, I think everyone will be unhappy! What do you think about this matter?"

After saying this modestly, Zhou Biaotou said to everyone.

What Captain Zhou said hit the nail on the head. After Captain Zhou mentioned it, everyone started discussing the matter enthusiastically...

……

Everyone was talking at once, saying all sorts of things:

"When I saw the ox carts and horse carriages of our escort agencies at the Qian family's farm, I couldn't believe my eyes. My mind is still dizzy and I can't figure out what's going on. It doesn't make sense to say that the Qian family did it."

"It's impossible that the Qian family did it. If it was done by the Qian family, how could our escort agency's ox carts and horse carriages be parked openly on the Qian family's farm?"

"Of course they were busy hiding those ox carts and horse carriages, how could they possibly expose this!"

"That's right, it couldn't have been done by the Qian family. The fact that the Qian family paid off the silver for us means that the grain merchants have received the six shipments of grain..."

"This is too weird. We saw the grain being robbed with our own eyes, but these grain merchants were able to receive the grain!"

"This is too weird. It doesn't make sense. Could it be that the chivalrous men are robbing the rich to help the poor?"

"Even if we rob the rich to help the poor, the food should not end up in the hands of a few grain merchants."

"What Captain Yin said is right. If they were robbing the rich to help the poor, then the grain should be in the government office or in the hands of the victims by now."

"It's not a good idea to ask Butler Qian about this matter in detail!"

"That's right. I'm so lucky to get the silver from the Qian Mansion. How dare I ask Butler Qian about this matter? If I ask, I'll be exposed."

"What Captain Zhang said is..."

-

"Boss Zhou, why don't we go to the Qian family's grain store and ask around to see how the Qian family received the six darts of grain!"

After everyone had discussed the matter in a mess, they felt a little better and stopped for the time being. Then, Escort Leader Zheng made a suggestion.

"Okay! After we have eaten and drunk enough, we will go and find out about this matter. After we find out something, we will go to the escort agencies in the city to look for manpower."

Hearing what Escort Captain Zheng said, Escort Captain Zhou was very pleased and agreed without hesitation.

-

Since Captain Zhou had made the decision, the other captains stopped talking and continued to drink and eat...

……

In a short while, several escort leaders had eaten up all the food and wine on the table.

……

There are four main streets in Anping City, namely East, West, South and North, and there is a Qian's grain shop on each street.

When I was looking for a restaurant just now, a few escort leaders passed by Qian's grain store. After paying the bill, they walked out of the restaurant and headed towards Qian's grain store on East Street...

……

After a while, several escort leaders arrived in front of Qian's grain shop.

When they saw that the Qian family grain shop was empty without a single customer, several escort leaders felt strange.

Isn't Anping Prefecture short of food? Why is the grain shop so quiet?

"Dear guests, you have come at the right time. My grain has just been greatly reduced in price. The grain that originally sold for 100 coins per pound is now sold for 80 coins per pound. Dear guests, please do not miss this opportunity and buy more grain to take back..."

Business was slow and the guys in the grain shop were hoping for customers to come. When they saw Zhou Biaotou and the other six people in front of the grain shop, they went up to them and greeted them enthusiastically.

Afraid that he would have nothing to eat, Qian Fugui decided to sell the grain at a lower price after much deliberation.

When several escort leaders arrived at the Qian family grain shop, the shopkeeper and the clerks inside had just received news that the price of grain had been reduced.

"Brother, there is no rush to buy food for the time being. Let's ask you something first."

Hearing the waiter talking non-stop about selling food, Biaotou Zhou couldn't help but interrupt him.

"Oh, what do you want to know?"

Hearing that the few people had no intention of buying food, the waiter's tone suddenly became cold.

"Brother, is the grain sold in your grain shop transported back from Shuzhou?"

"Yes, it's only been two days!"

"Young man, do you know where the escorts who are transporting this batch of grain have gone? We want to ask them to escort something."

"Don't mention it! The escorts from Shuzhou are so unreliable. They left six packages of food at the government office and disappeared, forcing us guys to go to the government office to transport the food..."

"Uh, sorry to bother you bro!"

After hearing what the grain shop assistant said, Zhou Biaotou immediately had an idea in his mind. After a polite word, he turned around and walked towards North Street...

Since the six convoys of grain arrived at the government office first, he went to the government office to inquire about the matter.

The Qian Mansion and Anping Prefecture Yamen were not only both located on North Street, but were also not far from each other.

After visiting Qian's mansion, the escort leaders knew the location of the government office without asking.

Seeing what Captain Zhou said, the other five captains followed him and headed towards North Street...

-

When Zhou Biaotou and his companions arrived near the government office, it was crowded with people and noisy, and more than a hundred yamen runners were busy and out of breath.

These yamen runners not only had to distribute radishes to the common people, but also had to register their household registrations and move the radishes from the yard in front of the hall to outside the yamen...

They originally wanted to ask the yamen runners for some information, but when they saw the busy scene in front of the yamen, the escort leaders didn't want to disturb the runners, so they could only stand by and listen to the discussions of the people...

……

After listening for a while, several escort leaders got a rough idea: "The Bodhisattva appeared last night. Not only did he send more than 10 million kilograms of food to the government office, he also sent radishes and sweet potatoes to every disaster victim outside the city..."

No wonder the Qian family grain shop is so deserted.

Before the price reduction, grain sold for 100 wen per catty. After the price reduction, grain still sold for 80 wen per catty. How many ordinary people can afford such expensive grain?

In years of severe drought, radishes can save lives. With radishes distributed by the government, who would want to buy expensive grain from the grain store?

How could a human being make more than 10 million kilograms of grain appear out of thin air in the government office overnight?

The Bodhisattva’s appearance must be real!

Could it be that the six rations were also brought to the government office by the Bodhisattva?

Thinking of this, the confused minds of several escort leaders suddenly became clear.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that it was the Bodhisattva who allowed the six rations to appear in the government office!
