Just move forward a little, and a bloody hole will appear on their neck.

They immediately did not dare to move, and the red-tasseled guns they held in their hands fell to the ground with a loud bang.

"Dong Cheng, how dare you!"

one of them shouted.

Dong Cheng was extremely calm and responded loudly: "Now that the plague is rampant and there is not much food left in the city, there is nothing I dare not do for the sake of the people in the city!"

"Dong Cheng, aren't you afraid of being blamed by the governor?"

The man shouted again.

"I have wanted to see the Governor many times but was unable to do so. If you could call the Governor out of the back house of the Yamen, I would be very grateful to you!"

"you……"

Dong Cheng waved his sleeves and ordered: "Take them away!"

The dozen or so state soldiers suddenly accepted the order, removed the spears from their necks, and held their arms separately, two of them, and twisted them away.

There is no obstacle in front of the gate of the official warehouse.

"Come here, break the door lock!" Dong Cheng shouted again.

Several state soldiers responded, and a big hammer swung down. There was a loud "clang" sound, and the door lock on the official warehouse door fell down.

Dong Cheng and Zhu Xiuyuan looked at each other and ordered: "Open the door!"

Squeak...

The heavy solid wood door was pushed open.

Dong Cheng, Zhu Xiuyuan, and a group of people behind them entered one after another.

After everyone entered it, they took a quick look. After they saw it clearly, they suddenly became silent!

Everyone looked around in confusion and then looked at each other.

"Sir... Sir, this official warehouse... is actually empty of grain..."

A certain Cao Shenjun, who followed Dong Cheng and Zhu Xiuyuan in, could not speak coherently.

There is no food in the official warehouse... What will they use to fill the mouths of hundreds of thousands of victims waiting for food?!

This is a big deal!

"Zhizhi...zhizhi..."

"Chiji...jiji..."

When everyone was confused and silent, dozens of huge rats actually came out of this large official warehouse, running openly and openly on the floor of the granary.

When the mice saw Dong Cheng and others, they quickly retreated, then disappeared into the hole in the ground in the blink of an eye.

Everyone stood there in silence, no one spoke.

Zhu Xiuyuan looked at the empty official warehouse and understood immediately.

At that time, in the back hall of the Yamen, the steward of the palace came in person and used the reputation of King Poyang as a guarantee to ask the governor Fangtang to open the official warehouse to release grain.

However, Fangtang, the governor, showed his "direct minister" side and insisted that he could only open his official position after an order from the court...

At that time, Zhu Xiuyuan didn't understand why Fangtang said and behaved like this.

On the surface, Fangtang is not a direct minister!

Later, Zhu Xiuyuan suspected that there might be a problem with the official warehouse, so Fangtang did not dare to open the official warehouse to avoid exposing the problem.

But I didn't expect that the problem in this official warehouse would be so big.

There isn't even a grain of grain in it!

Instead, they fattened up a bunch of rats...

"I should have thought of it earlier. In order to cover up the problem of the official warehouse, Fangtang dared to risk offending the Poyang Palace and refused the proposal of the Poyang Palace... That means that the problem of the official warehouse is a big problem. I

I should have thought of this a long time ago!" Zhu Xiuyuan thought to himself.

After Zhu Xiuyuan thought about it, he realized that everyone was standing here stupidly, and no one spoke...

"Father-in-law."

Zhu Xiuyuan broke the silence, "Since there is not a grain of food in this official warehouse, it is useless for us to stand here. Let's go back first, and we will discuss the matter of food shortage in the long term."

Dong Cheng turned his stiff neck and glanced at Zhu Xiuyuan. Zhu Xiuyuan saw an indescribable color in Dong Cheng's eyes.

"My good son-in-law is right, let's go back first!"

Dong Cheng said calmly and exited the empty official warehouse first.

The rest of the people secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They were afraid that Dong Cheng would be provoked and go on strike. If Dong Cheng went on strike, they would be at a loss what to do.

They obeyed Dong Cheng's orders and accepted various tasks, which has become a habit.

Moreover, everyone also understood that only Dong Cheng could sort out such complicated things...

In other words, they need Dong Cheng's leadership.

Zhu Xiuyuan was one step behind, but he didn't have the same thoughts as they did.

"At that moment, my father-in-law seemed to have changed. Although I can't tell what it was, I can be sure that something has indeed changed in my father-in-law!" Zhu Xiuyuan thought to himself.

…

Prefecture Yamen, record affairs, join the army, and sign for custody.

"From the current point of view, the problem of food shortage and the prescription to treat the plague are the two most difficult top issues at the moment!"

A certain Cao Shenjun concluded.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

In fact, there are still two problems, lack of medicine and infection control.

However, some people have already gone to the mountains to collect herbs, and the problem of lack of medicine can be solved.

As for the problem of controlling infection, it seems that we only need to strictly follow the laws of plague prevention and control.

Regarding this point, the palace steward, the generals who went to report to the palace and the soldiers of the Jiangzhou camp will be transformed into "supervising troops".

Only the problems of food and prescriptions for treating the plague are difficult to solve.

"We can't do anything to cure the plague, and we can't help. All we have to do is consult the miracle doctor."

"Hey, I hope Doctor Zhang can find a cure for the plague as soon as possible..."

"Let's discuss the issue of food shortage. After all, there are still hundreds of thousands of mouths waiting."

As soon as these words came out, the entire signing room suddenly became quiet.

This food problem...has always troubled them from the beginning.

The root cause lies entirely in the five major warehouse cases in Jiangzhou.

If the charity warehouse is not empty, where is the problem of food shortage?

The Sicang who committed the crime must have joined the military under the instruction of Chang Shi Hua Chao Shi, so he dared to empty the five major warehouses...

Hua Chao Shi!

This is a scam!

There is also the problem of counterfeit medicines running rampant, which was also created by the thief Hua Chaoshi!

Whenever Zhu Xiuyuan thought of this, he felt itchy with hatred.

If possible, Zhu Xiuyuan could not wait to throw Hua Chaoshi into a severe quarantine area infected with the plague...

"Hey, forget it, it's useless to think about this, let's find a way to solve the current crisis of food shortage!" Zhu Xiuyuan sighed in his heart.

Suddenly, Zhu Xiuyuan had a flash of inspiration and stood up hurriedly and said: "Father-in-law, and all the other gentlemen, it's not that we in Jiangzhou don't have food, it's just that it's not in our hands."

When Zhu Xiuyuan said these words, it was as if a layer of fog had been lifted that confused everyone.

"The new rice shops that have popped up in the city are selling rice at ten times the price. They also claim that their grain reserves are hundreds of thousands of dan..."

"What are hundreds of thousands of stones?"
