Chapter 517: What you get on paper is ultimately shallow.

When Su Jingchen and Cao Gen rushed over, they saw Yu Xiaolian holding the child with one hand and stepping on the bandit leader's back.

As for the bandit leader, he had already passed out.

Su Jingchen gave Yu Xiaolian a thumbs up.

After receiving the compliment from her husband, Yu Xiaolian looked proud.

"I kept him alive and took him back for trial!"

The grassroots were astonished from the hair down to the heels. Is their wife actually so strong?

In the past, I occasionally saw adults instructing his wife to practice martial arts in the backyard. She always made mistakes in every move. This...

Could it be that Madam has been pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?

He is such an idiot that he never noticed that Madam is so good at martial arts.

Just after noon, Su Jingchen and his party entered Yangzhou City.

Su Jingchen took He Jian directly to the Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department.

When Mr. Cao saw Su Jingchen coming safe and sound, his heart suddenly sank.

It's over. Su Jingchen didn't deal with it on the road. I'm afraid it will be even harder to succeed in Yangzhou City in the future.

"Cao Guangqiao of the Huaiyan General Store in Yangzhou welcomes Mr. Su!" Cao Guangqiao quickly put away the disappointment on his face and greeted Su Jingchen with a smile.

Su Jingchen already knew from He Jian that this man surnamed Cao paid to kill people. If he wanted to get rid of him, he would not look good on him.

If there was no witness, I would have tolerated it. Unfortunately, he had witnesses, and there were more than one.

However, Su Jingchen did not bring those few survivors to the Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department in a arrogant manner. Instead, he took care of them elsewhere.

The Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department is different from other government offices in other prefectures. There are many miscellaneous officials in this place. The Lianghuai Salt Transportation Department is just a place for office work. There is no backyard to house family members or anything like that.

Since the emperor wanted Su Jingchen to take care of this mess, he naturally arranged a place for him to live. Boss Liang and several other bandits who were captured alive were temporarily kept in the residence arranged by the emperor for Su Jingchen.

Su Jingchen had just arrived and didn't know how complicated the officialdom of the Huaihe Salt Movement was, so rashly exposing Boss Liang and the others might be counterproductive.

Although he had read a lot of files on the salt transportation between the Huaihe River and Huaihe River before coming here, it was still too shallow to read on paper. He still had to see it in person to be sure.

Yu Xiaolian and Su Jingchen divided their troops into two groups, each doing its own thing.

Su Jingchen went to the Salt Transportation Department, while she arranged all the arrangements for the new home.

The new residence is a courtyard with three entrances. Although it only has three entrances, it is still a large house with a large area in Yangzhou City, where land is at a premium.

The house is neither new nor old, but it has all the furniture. Yu Xiaolian is quite satisfied with the house.

But when Yu Xiaolian learned that this house was lived in by the former Yanyun Secretary Yin, she was... quite surprised.

This house... Every plant and tree looks like a place where an upright official lives. The former salt transport envoy, Mr. Yin, is a very corrupt person. This...

However, one should not take things at face value. When the old housekeeper who guarded the house took Yu Xiaolian to the main house and showed Yu Xiaolian the underground secret room in the main house, Yu Xiaolian was so surprised that she could not close her mouth.

"The emperor confiscated the money in a secret room?" Yu Xiaolian looked at the underground secret room, which was approximately 70 to 80 square meters, and her short-sighted vision was suddenly refreshed.

"Not only silver, but also gold and various jewelry, glass, clams, agate, and pearls as big as pigeon eggs." The old housekeeper said with a smile.

He just liked to see Yu Xiaolian look like she had never seen the world.

Yu Xiaolian clicked her tongue twice.

"Although Mr. Yin is a very greedy person, his food, clothing, and accommodation are all the worst. His underwear is even patched." The old housekeeper said while looking at Yu Xiaolian's expression.

"Then what is he trying to do?" He was greedy for money but did not dare to enjoy it, and in the end he ended up with his head on the ground.

Yu Xiaolian really doesn't understand the hearts of these people who only embezzle and don't dare to enjoy.

I don't understand what they are thinking.
