"Treasurer Jin, the account that Boss Zhang borrowed just now has not yet been recorded in the account book. Shall we go and tell His Royal Highness the King of Shu now?"

In Xinfeng County, at the front counter of the Yanhuang Bank, a young servant in Tsing Yi asked with a nervous expression after seeing Shopkeeper Jin coming out of the back room.

"shut up!"

The shopkeeper Jin panicked when he heard the words, he hurriedly turned his head and looked behind him, after seeing no one, he let out a sigh of relief, then he raised his foot and walked to the servant, and put on a calm face again, and said earnestly. said:

"Wang Xiaodong, His Royal Highness the King of Shu has a lot of time and money. This time he came to our bank to check the accounts. After checking the accounts, His Royal Highness has to rush back to Chang'an. How can I spend so much time here? Don't tell His Highness that Boss Zhang came to the Qianzhuang to borrow money. If you make His Highness impatient, then the old man will not be able to save you! Do you understand?"

Wang Xiaodong is just a servant in the bank, where has he seen anything in the world, and he doesn't know the character of a prince or aristocrat like Li Ke. When he was frightened by the intimidation and intimidation of the shopkeeper Jin, he immediately panicked, "Don't worry, the shopkeeper, I will definitely not talk too much! I would also like to thank the shopkeeper Jin for reminding me!"

Shopkeeper Jin nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Yes! Xiaodong! You are very sensible. I heard that your mother was sick and bedridden a while ago. It must be expensive to see a doctor, right? After you go to the account to withdraw two pieces of money, just be an old man. A part of my heart~!"

When Wang Xiaodong heard the words, he was immediately grateful and said, "Thank you, Manager Jin! You are so kind to me. In the future, if Manager Jin has orders, the little one will definitely die!"

"Haha! Not bad! Xiaodong, you repay your gratitude, the old man really did not see you wrong! You are now taking someone to the Wanbin Building in the city to arrange a table for His Royal Highness Shu. Remember, it must be the best. The wine, the best food~!"

Seeing that the goal has been achieved, shopkeeper Jin said with a smile.

"Yes! The shopkeeper's!"

Wang Xiaodong responded excitedly, then quickly put down his work and left the bank.

"Huh? Why do I think Shopkeeper Jin wants to deliberately conceal the account that Wang Xiaodong said? Who is Boss Zhang? Oh, the person that Xiao Ke and I bumped into outside the house is also named Zhang, could it be that Wang Xiaodong said it? Is that the person? No, there must be something tricky here, I'll go tell Xiao Ke!"

Shopkeeper Jin didn't know that the conversation he had just had with Wang Xiaodong in the front hall was heard by Cheng Chumo, who had just come out of the side hall.

Although Cheng Chumo's temperament is upright, it doesn't mean that he is iron and foolish. The conversation between shopkeeper Jin and Wang Xiaodong made him feel that shopkeeper Jin must have a ghost inside.

So he quickly restrained his breath and returned to the side hall lightly.

"Xiao Ke, how is it? Did you find any problems in the account book?"

After returning to the side hall, Cheng Chumo approached Li Ke and hurriedly asked.

While looking at the account book, Li Ke replied, "How can it be so fast? But as far as I have checked the accounts, I haven't found any problems! Oh, Ugly Niu, didn't you tell me to go out? Why did you come back? ?"

Cheng Chumo turned around, first probed out to check left and right, and after confirming that there was no one outside the house, he opened the door to look at it, then walked to Li Ke's side, and said mysteriously, "Xiao Ke, I don't think this shopkeeper Jin is very good. That's right, the account book he gave you is probably incomplete!"

Hearing this, Li Ke couldn't help but raised his head and asked, "Oh? Why did Brother Ugly make such a statement?"

"I was planning to go out for a walk just now, but I overheard the shopkeeper Jin talking about an account to the servant in the front hall......"

Cheng Chumo lowered his voice and told Li Ke what he had just heard. After Li Ke heard it, his brows could not help but wrinkle deeply, "According to what you just said, Shopkeeper Jin seems to have some problems. To find out the truth, we must first find out who this Boss Zhang is, and how much money is involved in the latest account that Wang Xiaodong said?"

Cheng Chumo said with a low laugh, "Hey! It's easy! Then Wang Xiaodong is going to hold a banquet. I'll stop him halfway through and bluff him. I'm not afraid that he won't tell the truth~!"

Li Ke pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's very good! But we have to act in secret to prevent the snake from stunning!"

Cheng Chumo nodded and said, "Xiao Ke, don't worry! This matter is covered by me!"

"Bang bang bang!"

Not long after the two discussed the countermeasures, there was a knock on the door outside the house, and Li Ke asked aloud, "Who is it?"

"His Royal Highness, it's me! Jin Wanfu! Your Highness has been running and tired all the way. Jin has set up a table for His Highness in the Wanbin Building in the city, to catch the wind and dust for His Highness, and I hope His Highness will reward you!"

As soon as Li Ke finished speaking, Jin Wanfu's voice came from outside the door.

The two looked at each other, Li Ke got up and opened the door, and then said to Jin Wanfu: "Treasurer Jin, the truth is that this king came to Xinfeng County with the Tianji brigade of the Marquis of Yongan today to eradicate locusts in Xinfeng County, and checked the accounts in Qianzhuang. It's just a passing move! Therefore, it is inconvenient for this king to have a meal in Wanbin Building at noon, and I have failed the good intentions of the shopkeeper Jin!"

Jin Wanfu was startled when he heard the words, and said in surprise, "What? The Tianji brigade of Marquis Yong'an has come to Xinfeng County?"

If Tianji Brigade really comes to Xinfeng County, then the locust plague in Xinfeng County will be resolved in two days. By then, Xinfeng County will become the second county seat after Lantian County to eliminate the locusts, and the price of food in the city will also decrease. Don't think about going up any further, and Zhang Xiongfei's 6,000 kuai borrowed from the bank will not only not make a lot of money, but may even lose money!

Li Ke's eyes flashed, and he asked deeply, "What? Shopkeeper Jin doesn't want to see Tianji Brigade come to Xinfeng County to destroy locusts?"

When Jin Wanfu heard this, a layer of cold sweat formed on his back, and he quickly waved his hand and said, "No! No! The Tianji brigade of the Marquis of Yongan can come to Xinfeng County to destroy locusts, Jin is too happy to be happy, how can he not? Jin is just a little surprised that the Marquis will come to Xinfeng County so soon, there is absolutely no other meaning!"

Li Ke took a deep look at Jin Wanfu, then picked up the account book on the table, and said, "Haha! I didn't see it, but the shopkeeper Jin is also very concerned about the locust plague outside the city! The king should take this account book for a while, before it gets dark. It will be sent back! Now this king has something important to do, so let's go first!"

Although Jin Wanfu was extremely reluctant, he did not dare to raise any objection, so he could only hold hands and said, "His Royal Highness, walk slowly! There is an order from Your Highness behind, just let me know, and Jin will be there whenever he is called!"

"Well! Ugly cow, let's go!"

Li Ke nodded, greeted Cheng Chumo, and the two went out.

"Could it be that the King of Shu found something in the account book? It shouldn't be! This account book is quite satisfactory. The old man has also checked it in private. Although there are some small flaws, there is absolutely no major problem. Alas, maybe I think too much~ !"

Looking at the backs of Li Ke and Cheng Chumo leaving, Jin Wanfu had a bad premonition in his heart, but he couldn't think of where his flaws were, so he could only comfort himself.

But the bad premonition did not dissipate, instead it was like a heavy stone, pressing heavily on his heart, so much that he didn't even have the intention to go back to the backyard to see the two beautiful orchis he just got!

"Xiao Ke! It's him!"

After leaving the bank and walking on the street, Cheng Chumo suddenly pointed to a young servant in green coming towards them on the right sidewalk, and said to Li Ke, "Xiao Ke, otherwise you and Pang Feiji will go to the county office first, and I'll look for that Wang Xiaodong asks clearly!"

Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, Li Ke knew that there would be no delay, so he nodded in agreement: "That's fine! But don't hurt the ugly cow, let alone startle the snake. If possible, it's best to persuade that little servant to submit to us. This side!"

Cheng Chumo patted the moon and smiled, "Xiao Ke, don't worry! Okay, I won't gossip anymore, I'll go first!"

After that, Cheng Chumo turned his direction and walked directly towards the tsing-clothed servant.

"Let's go! Let's go to the county office!"

Although Li Ke was a little worried, at this time he had limited manpower around him, so he could only trust Cheng Chumo for a while. He turned his head and said something to Pang Feiji, and the two went straight to the direction of Xinfeng County.

………………………………

"Haha! It is really a blessing for the people of Xinfeng County to bring the Tianji Brigade to Xinfeng County to exterminate locusts! As the county magistrate of Xinfeng County, Xiaguan has been worried about the locust plague these days. Now, Lord Hou It is considered to have solved the troubles of Xiaguan’s confidants, Xiaguan must thank the Marquis in person, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable!”

Xinfeng County Government Office, after Li Ke knew his identity and purpose of coming, the county magistrate Wang Dezheng bowed his hands excitedly.

Li Ke said calmly, "It's okay for the magistrate Wang to thank the Marquis of Yongan in person, but the most urgent task at the moment is to prepare meals for the more than 100 people who came with him. I hope the magistrate Wang can arrange it as soon as possible! Meals are not required. What a luxury, all you need is meat! In addition, I am preparing a pot of throat soup and a pot of hot mung bean soup, and then send them to the farmland outside the city!"

Wang Dezheng said in surprise: "Your Highness, the Marquis of Yong'an and the children of Lantian County are not going back to the county town for dinner?"

Li Ke shook his head and said, "It's a waste of time to go back to the city to eat! Magistrate Wang, please send someone to prepare the meal! This king will pay for all the expenses. This is the formula of the throat soup prescribed by Shen Shenyi, please be careful. Cooking, there must be no mistakes, otherwise this king is only yours to ask!"

Wang Dezheng's face was solemn, he took the prescription with both hands, and said: "The Tianji Brigade is here to help Xinfeng County to eliminate locusts. The food expenses should be paid by Xinfeng County, how can His Highness spend it! As for this throat soup and mung bean soup, let's go. The official will keep an eye on it, and there will be no mistakes, please rest assured, Your Highness!"

Li Ke waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about the money for the meal. This king has made up his mind. Go and arrange for someone to prepare lunch!"

Wang Dezheng was helpless, so he could only cup his hands and say: "Yes! Your Highness sit down for a while! I'll make arrangements now as an official!"

After all, the magistrate Wang walked out of the inner hall and arranged for someone to prepare meals.

Li Ke just took out the ledger, and leaned on the table next to him and began to read it seriously.

After about two quarters of an hour, Cheng Chumo walked in and excitedly said to Li Ke, "Xiao Ke! Xiao Ke! I heard!"

Li Ke put away the account book, got up and said in surprise: "So fast? You ugly cow, hurry up and talk!"

Cheng Chumo looked left and right, and said in a deep voice to the maids standing on both sides: "You all go down first! I have something to say to His Royal Highness the King of Shu!"

"Yes!"

Everyone knew that the two teenagers in front of them were nobles from Chang'an, and they couldn't even afford to offend the magistrate Wang, so they couldn't afford to offend them, so they hurriedly bowed their heads and withdrew.

Cheng Chumo saw that no one was around, so he whispered to Li Ke: "Xiao Ke, I found out that the boss Zhang mentioned by Jin Wanfu is called Zhang Xiongfei, the fat man we bumped into at the gate of Qianzhuang earlier. I heard Wang Xiaodong say Zhang Xiongfei. It’s the owner of Zhang Ji Grain Shop, this time Zhang Xiong flew to Yanhuang Bank to borrow money from shopkeeper Jin, guess how much he wants to borrow?”

"How many?"

Li Ke was still sorting out the clues that Cheng Chumo had said.

He couldn't help frowning and asked subconsciously.

"Six thousand! And it was borrowed at an annual interest rate of 16 percent!"

Cheng Chumo lowered his voice and said.

"Six thousand dollars? Sixteen percent interest rate?"

Li Ke couldn't help exclaiming. First of all, 6,000 guans may not be worth mentioning for a top "big local tyrant" like Li Zexuan, but for a small county like Xinfeng County, 6,000 guans is definitely a huge sum of money. There are only a handful of people who can get 6,000 pieces!

Another point that surprised Li Ke was the loan interest rate of 6,000 yuan. The annual interest rate of 16% was indeed cheap for private loans in the past, but Yanhuang Qianzhuang had just implemented a unified loan annual interest rate a while ago— -Eight percent, here, the shopkeeper Jin directly lent Zhang Xiongfei six thousand dollars at an annual interest rate of sixteen percent. If there is nothing wrong with this, Li Ke would never believe it!

"What does Zhang Xiongfei do with so much money? And he is willing to borrow money at twice the lending rate, which shows that he is in urgent need of money and is confident that he will make more money with this money in a short time! There must be a sure-fire business, at least he thinks it’s a sure-fire business!”

Li Ke thought for a while and muttered to himself in a low voice.

"Hey! It's not easy to guess? This guy surnamed Zhang must have taken these 6,000 guans to buy food. Now there is a locust plague everywhere. This old guy must want to hoard more food and wait for the people in the future. After the crops were plagued by locusts, he took the opportunity to drive up the price of grain and make a big profit! Xiaoke, do you remember when we first entered the city, the people said that the price of grain at the Zhangji Grain Shop in the west of the city had risen again? This is not right Does it mean that this old bastard is not at ease?"

Cheng Chumo laughed at this moment.

"...Well, your analysis, Chu Mo, is very reasonable!"

Hearing this, Li Ke nodded with deep sympathy. Suddenly, he looked at Cheng Chumo with a strange expression and said, "Eh? No! Ugly cow, why has your brain become so flexible today? It's not like you~!"

Cheng Chumo's old face suddenly froze, and it is estimated that tens of thousands of grass and mud horses are rushing past in his heart at the moment, "Damn it! Xiaoke, you are not being kind! I worked so hard to help you investigate the case, but you This hurts me, brother~!"

Li Ke laughed and said: "Haha! I'm just joking with you, but then again, how did you make Wang Xiaodong willing to tell the truth?"
