"Should we have an explanation?" Xing Jian looked at Guo Qi with a smile.

Guo Qi was not panicked at all. He looked at the two and said, "I know that these things are indeed a little less, but I have no choice. This year, heavy snowfall has suddenly fallen, and no one is prepared. All the food is not taken back in the fields. I can't let my people wear single clothes to do farm work in such weather. I do have some inventory, but they are all for the people. If it is really a mess, it is passed into the ears of His Majesty the Emperor, even if it is two, it may not be easy to explain!"

Looking at Guo Qi's serious nonsense, Pan Zhen almost drew his sword in anger.

But Xingjian was very calm, or in other words, this trick really couldn't catch his eye.

"It is reasonable and reasonable. Lord Guo is a model of the country and the people. If the people are really troubled, the entire Zhao family cannot afford this responsibility." Xing Jian said slowly: "However, I have something, and I hope Lord Guo will take a look."

As he said that, Xing Jian slowly took out two lists from his arms and handed them to Guo Qi.

Guo Qi looked at it in the candlelight, and as he looked, cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

"This thing, where did you come from this thing? It's nonsense, nonsense!"

The first list is the list of items in the Luocheng Treasury, and it has even been accurate to a few copper coins, one by one, making Guo Qi feel terrified.

The second one is a list of Guo Qi's bribery and bribery over the years, and even a "transaction" three days ago is clearly recorded.

"Is it nonsense? You know in your heart that if this thing is handed over to His Majesty the Emperor, haha..." Xing Jian's desire to speak makes Guo Qi's ruthless teeth itchy.

"Sir, slandering officials like this..."

"Is it a slander or the same sentence? You know in your heart that it's late tonight, and the old general and I are going to rest. We will set out in the morning tomorrow. I hope you can satisfy us!"

After saying that, Xingjian and Pan Zhen left, leaving only Guo Qi alone in the candlelight, with a gloomy expression.

After a while, Guo Wen walked in and whispered: "Father, both adults have already arranged it."

Guo Qi savored the fragrant tea, closing his eyes and silently.

"Father?"

"Wen'er, what do you think about this?"

Guo Wen thought a little and said, "We should admit defeat in this matter. No matter how much money it is, it cannot be bought. As long as my father is still the lord of Luocheng, he still needs as much money as possible."

Guo Qi looked at his son with satisfaction, not dazzled by a little bit of flies. Very good, very good.

"The key is what kind of sincerity we have to show to satisfy the other party's appetite."

"I took too much, it would be better to get it. I was afraid that the other party would take the opportunity to get angry. There are spies from the Zhao family in the city lord's mansion and senior management. Otherwise, it would be impossible to inquire about the inside and outside of our Luocheng. Also, we must protect these two people and must not make any mistakes. If these two people lose a hair from us, our whole family will probably lose their heads. Remember, remember!" Guo Qi reminded.

Guo Wen said: "What my father said is a bit exaggerated. Even if the Zhao family is powerful, it is impossible to deal with our family so boldly, right?"

Guo Qi smiled bitterly and said, "Wen'er, you are resourceful and think in the direction of a wise man in everything. However, some things cannot be solved by wisdom alone. If the third son of the Zhao family and Pan Zhen really have any accidents in Luocheng, do you believe it or not? In less than half a day, Zhao Yang will dare to defeat Luocheng. At that time, our family's heads will be hung on the city gate tower. After all, they will be outside, and the king will not accept the order."

"It was the child who was negligent!"

"It's okay, thank you for your hard work to prepare supplies overnight. Those merchants have made so much money in Luocheng. It's time to make some blood!"

...

"General Pan Zhen, I sent a team of commanders overnight to ask my elder brother to come tomorrow morning to receive supplies. The army traveled from Chendu Daoluo City for about one day and a half, and it took only three days to go back and forth, and it was absolutely possible to complete the task." Xing Jian said.

"But, third young master, how do you know that this city lord will definitely take out enough supplies for us?"

"Sleep, the old general, please watch the show tomorrow!"

...

The next morning, Xingjian took Pan Zhen to find Guo Qi. Guo Qi still had a smile and kind expression, and a new list of supplies was placed in Xingjian's hands.

"100,000 pieces of cotton coats and bedding."

"Ten thousand brazier stoves."

"Two hundred tons of coal."

“Transport 5,000 horses.”

“Some other debris…”

"Hahaha, City Lord Guo is indeed a person who is very wise and righteous!" Xing Jian said.

Looking at Xingjian's smile, Guo Qi felt that his heart was bleeding. These things had almost one-tenth of his family's fortune. In a few years, he couldn't get enough. Xingjian completely used his power to suppress others, and nakedly used his power to suppress others.

"I hope the general's flag will win!" Although I felt distressed, Guo Chengzhu did not show any performance on the surface, and he still had a kind face.

"By the way, I don't know anything below, so I'll ask the city lord for advice!" Xing Jian said suddenly.

"I know everything I know!" Guo Qi said hurriedly.

"How did the city lord gather such huge supplies overnight?"

"The third young master doesn't know that there are six chambers of commerce in Luocheng, all of which are first-class chambers of commerce on the mainland. I have more or less friendship with these people, so..."

"I also want to see such a person, so please recommend him to the city lord!"

Looking at Xingjian's smile like a fox, Guo Qi suddenly felt a creepy feeling.

"This is natural, this is natural, I just don't know what the young master is going to find for a few businessmen?" Guo Qi said.

"Ask a question knowingly!" Xing Jian said with a smile.

Guo Qi smiled and knew that these chambers of commerce were going to be in trouble.

At this time, a sergeant walked in and whispered in the ear of Xingjian.

Xing Jian nodded with a smile and said, "The Grand Marshal has sent someone to take over the supplies. The troops are outside. Please ask Lord Guo to let them enter the city!"

Guo Qi hesitated slightly and then agreed, since he had chosen not to resist, just lie down and enjoy it.

Soon, a team of iron cavalry walked in from outside the city. Although the city was relatively small, the entire team of cavalry was extremely neat and without any confusion.

Everyone couldn't see the expression and rode a war horse forward.

Seeing the cavalry flag, Guo Qi's face turned green. This is the strongest Red Fire Iron Cavalry in the Red Dragon Empire!
