Chapter 197 The Queen Mother who picked up the bargain is very upset 43

Xiu'er proudly introduced the new policy to the two of them, trying to explain it in plain language. The woman nodded repeatedly as she listened.

"Great! If this is true, my family must contract more good farmland."

"That's right, this way your family will have food to eat."

At this time, Lian Chen's good mood when he went out was gone, and he was in a terrible mood.

"Madame Xiu, let's go back. You can give them some silver."

"Young master, aren't you going to see it anymore? How about we go to the beach outside the city?" Xiu'er took out a handful of silver peanuts from her purse and stuffed them into the woman's hand.

Lian Chen took a deep breath and nodded, "Let's go and take a look. I haven't seen the sea yet."

Aunt Xiu was very generous, "I don't have any either, but I heard that Hai Kelan is very big now."

The woman behind him squeezed the silver peanuts in her hand and realized they weighed seven or eight taels. Such exquisitely crafted silver peanuts could fetch ten taels of silver at a pawnshop! Five years of living expenses for her family! Oh my god! She'd met a truly benefactor.

"Giant turtles surge across the three mountains, and mighty rocs soar across the vast expanse. Aunt Xiu, bring the horses, and let's go to the seaside!"

"right away!"

The woman was stunned for a moment, her face changed, and she pulled her daughter into the yard quickly. After looking around, she rushed to the kitchen and hid the silver and money under a stone.

"Mom, what are you doing?"

"Nannan, mother is fine. I am saving up some dowry for you. When the time comes, we will have a grand wedding for you."

"Wife, what takes you so long to get something?"

"Dad, you're back. I met someone asking for directions and talked to him for a few words. I didn't expect to be delayed." The woman hurriedly explained.

"Oh, wife, what are you having for lunch? It's not going to be vegetable roots again, is it? The more I eat, the weaker I feel, and it doesn't taste good."

"Nowadays, only water is free. If not this, what else can we eat? But I heard that the county magistrate was beheaded. Maybe our good days will come soon."

As the woman spoke, she picked out a scallop from the man's bucket, dug out the meat, cleaned it, and cooked it with the vegetable roots.

The man saw his wife extravagantly taking five scallops and wanted to stop her, "Hey! Are you serious? That bastard official was beheaded?"

"You can find out if you ask around. Go and ask around."

After the woman ate the rice rolls, her voice was no longer weak.

"Okay, I'll go out and ask. If it's true, you can cook another fish for us."

"it is good"

……

When the news of the dog official being beheaded spread outside, Yun Xi had already left the inn and landed in the silver mine of Xiao Rizi Country. Without saying a word, he started to work and took away all the silver ore he saw.

The space disk of one thousand square meters could not accommodate it, so Yun Xi spent all her savings to buy a growing space in the mall. There was no so-called spiritual spring in it, only a lake that would never dry up. The area was originally only five hundred square meters. As she filled the space, the space would automatically expand. No one knew how big it would eventually become.

Yun Xi sighed, "This space is useful, but it's expensive."

System: "It's a good deal."

"What I'm interested in is the soul binding function. Otherwise, I wouldn't be willing to spend all my savings. All the gold and silver treasures will be gone. Fortunately, I can keep some of these silver mines, and I can get rewards after the mission is completed." Yun Xi said, her hands not stopping.

After collecting treasures from one place, he moved to another. Relying on the large number of teleportation talismans, he took away all the treasures of the Japanese pirates at sea. There were many Japanese pirates and pirates at sea, and they were eyeing the fat piece of meat of Lian Chao covetously. Yun Xi used up all the ordinary teleportation talismans and cleared out all the Japanese pirates and pirates in the coastal areas of Lian Chao.

How to clean it?

It was as simple as putting the person into the space and then throwing him into the shark's nest, but it made Yun Xi very tired. Using the space was very exhausting, and she was in a hurry. After returning to the inn, she fell asleep in the bed in seconds.

?

"Madam Xiu, look, it's a seagull!"

"Young Master, please be careful. There are shells on the ground that will scratch your feet."

Xiu'er calculated the time to go back, and she didn't know why the master sent her and the young master away. In short, she had to find a way to delay for a while.

"Madame Xiu, come quickly! There are little fish here! And starfish! Wow! So many seafood!"

Madam Xiu forced a smile and said, "Hey! I'm here. I'll pick up some more seafood and cook it for the young master."

"Then come quickly!"

The group had a great time at the beach and stared at the fishing boats in the distance with curiosity.

Four haggard fishermen got off the small boat and began to sort the fish after reaching the shore.

Lian Chen moved closer to take a look out of curiosity. The four people looked at him numbly without any reaction.

After a long while, one of the younger men said, "Dad, things are really strange today!"

"how?"

The oldest man paused and asked him.

Lian Chen couldn't help but prick up his ears.

"Dad, big brother and second brother, didn't you notice that there were no Japanese pirates looting today?"

After hearing this, Lian Chen frowned, and the other three were puzzled.

"Yes, it happens every day."

"strangeness!"

"Why are there so many fish today?"

……

Just as Lian Chen was about to ask, a group of people came running over from a distance, excitedly shouting, "The dog official was beheaded, the pirates are gone, etc."

The four people next to the fishing boat ran to inquire and came back happily, exuding joy from head to toe.

"You just found out, that dog official has been chopped off for two days."

Lian Chen smiled.

"Young Master, do you know about this?"

The four of them looked radiant, and their numb expressions were gone.

Lian Chen raised his eyebrows, "First tell me about the pirates, and then I'll tell you the details."

The old man glanced at the tall and burly guard behind him and lowered his voice, "Since that bastard official has been beheaded, there's no need for me to hide it. Since that bastard official took office, not only have taxes in Yunlai County become increasingly heavy, but pirates and Japanese pirates at sea have also become increasingly rampant, and the county government has never taken any action."

"At first, we thought the county government was afraid of being defeated and was putting up with the bandits' looting day after day. Later, we discovered some clues. The corrupt officials were colluding with the Japanese pirates. The corrupt officials collected taxes and turned a blind eye to the bandits' evil deeds. The bandits robbed us, and then got information from the county government to rob other counties..."

Lian Chen's face turned pale and he clenched his fists.

"He turned out to be such a scum! Don't worry, fellow villagers. Not only has County Magistrate Yao been beheaded, but his family has also been exiled. They will be slaves for generations to come. They will never oppress you again. The court will definitely send good officials."

"That would be great. We don't expect the previous county magistrate to be as honest and upright as he was, but we just hope there won't be another corrupt official."

"That's right! No more corrupt officials! A county magistrate who ruins a family, a prefect who wipes out an entire clan, are simply too terrible."

Lian Chen's good mood was completely gone. He hurried back to the inn with his men and wanted to talk to the Empress Dowager, but was told that she was resting.

"Grandmother must tell me when she wakes up."

"Yes! Young Master, please go and thank them first. I will go and cook the seafood."

There is also seafood in the palace, but it is very rare and is transported there on ice, so it is naturally not as fresh as the one here.
