Chapter 853
Because he saw quite a few impurities in the water, which looked like they had been there for quite some time.
The man didn't notice these details, and at this moment he spoke seriously.
"It seems you must be a young master from some wealthy family."
Ying Mo heard this and nodded: "We are mainly writing a travelogue."
Upon hearing this, a look of envy appeared in the man's eyes.
After all, some people are still living for food and clothing, while some can pursue higher things.
· ·····Seeking flowers· ···
However, the man didn't think too much at this moment, and after thinking for a short while, he spoke.
"First of all, our Heihu County magistrate is a cruel, brutal, and extremely vicious person."
Upon hearing this, Ying Mo nodded.
He knew that the other party had started to complain bitterly.
Then the man spoke again: "Our Heihu County was actually not very peaceful before. Since this magistrate took office, he has often exploited the people."
"Constantly bullying the local people, such as forcibly robbing women, heavy taxes, robbing cattle and sheep, robbing grain, he has done all kinds of things."
"And the people cannot resist. Once they resist, it will be a broken family, so he is very arrogant now."
"In fact, my son and I could save some grain every year, but every year it was collected by that magistrate."
"This year, after they collected all the grain, we could barely have enough grain for food, but today they collected it all."
"Isn't this letting our father and son die?"
Upon hearing these words, his son beside him actually cried.
When Ying Mo saw this scene, he frowned instantly.
If everything the other party said was true, then this matter would be a big deal.
This meant that the local people were indeed living in all kinds of difficulties.
This magistrate was not a human being at all.
And according to the various situations Ying Mo had seen before, what this person said was indeed very accurate.
No wonder the folk customs of this Heihu County looked strange, and it was clearly prosperous, but the economy was not good.
584. Family broken and dead, arrogant and domineering! (Please subscribe!)
Even just after he entered, he saw so many broken families.
However, Ying Mo thought again, if it were just the magistrate's means.
He probably wouldn't be so powerful, after all, the grain of this whole county was not a small amount.
But the other party collected it all, and collected it many times, so it was very likely collected for another organization.
Ying Mo thought slightly and immediately thought of the Blood Blade Sect.
At this moment, Ying Mo was very angry and had another plan.
Ying Mo nodded and said: "Then I basically know the situation here. Don't worry, I will write this '097' matter into my travelogue."
"When the time comes, the people in the world will know that the Heihu County magistrate here has such a character."
When the man heard this, a smile appeared on his face instantly.
"Then many thanks, benefactor."
"Being able to give us grain under such circumstances, you are our savior. You are truly too noble."
After saying this, he even pulled his son over to kowtow to Ying Mo.
When Ying Mo saw this scene, he felt uncomfortable instantly.
These people shouldn't have suffered such pain. From the local environment and the body shape of this father and son, one could tell.
They should be some hardworking people, but such hardworking people couldn't eat enough.
Then he should indeed reflect on what the magistrates under him were doing.
However, Ying Mo was not prepared to leave all this to himself to do.
He prepared to notify the local prefect and let him come to Heihu County to solve this matter.
At night.
The Heihu County magistrate sat in the courtyard and spoke to the private secretary beside him.
"Has the money from today been collected back?"
Upon hearing this, the private secretary nodded.
When the Heihu County magistrate saw this scene, he laughed loudly instantly.
"I knew those stubborn peasants still had quite a bit of grain hidden under their hands. When we searched last time, they actually dared to hide it."
"Fortunately, I searched it again this time."
Upon hearing this, the private secretary felt very uncomfortable in his heart.
Because the private secretary had always been personally on the scene to collect grain, and every time he collected grain, he had to be a villain.
Although the private secretary was also a ruthless person, when he saw those scenes of broken families, he was still particularly uncomfortable......
Although he was not a good person, he was afraid that this matter would plant a bad seed.
When the time comes, once a problem arises, he definitely wouldn't be able to escape the blame.
So at this moment, he came to the Heihu County magistrate and spoke seriously.
"Magistrate, I still have to mention something to you. This matter is very severe."
The Heihu County magistrate was in a good mood at this time, and upon hearing this, he naturally said quickly: "You have made a great contribution this time. If you have anything to say, just say it to me."
"Say it, what reward do you want."
Upon hearing this, the private secretary spoke.
"The current situation is not very favorable for us."
"If we continue to collect like this, then the people of Heihu County will soon be drained of their last blood by us."
"When the time comes, they will have no grain to eat, and they are very likely to have riots."
"When the time comes, a bigger crisis will appear."
1.3 The Heihu County magistrate snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
"They won't dare. Don't worry, this is a matter that is simply impossible to happen. They don't have the guts."
"If they had the guts, then they would have rebelled long ago. Why wait until now?"
"We are not collecting their grain for the first time. Do they want to sacrifice their lives for just a little bit of food?"
"I think they shouldn't go that far."
The Heihu County magistrate said seriously, his eyes carrying full seriousness.
Upon hearing this, the private secretary beside him felt a wave of helplessness in his heart.
First, he did not know that Ying Mo had come to his Heishui County, and second, the things he had done these past few days were indeed not human.
If this matter were known by Ying Mo or the Commandery Governor, he would be finished.
So after thinking of this, his eyes darted back and forth, and he finally said: "Go tell the Blood Blade Sect Master this news."
After hearing this, that person headed outside.
After seeing the other party leave, the people from the Blood Blade Sect arrived.
The Blood Blade Sect Master smiled at this time and said: "Magistrate, your efficiency is still very high; you actually extracted so much money in such a short time."
"I have to say, your Heishui County is indeed very profitable."
Hearing this, the Heishui County Magistrate's face changed instantly, and he shook his head.
"There is a problem this time; the Commandery Governor is coming to our Heishui County."
"Ying Mo is also coming; when the time comes, they will gather here."
"Once they conduct an investigation into the local situation, we will all be finished."
Upon hearing these words, the Blood Blade Sect Master's face also gradually became somewhat unpleasant.
Just a moment ago, he hadn't thought that deeply, but now that he had heard this intelligence, he was also somewhat nervous.
Because once the Commandery Governor arrives, he will certainly deal with them, and when that time comes, it will be a disaster.
At the very least, the Blood Blade Sect Master could hide, but the Heishui County Magistrate could not hide.
But if the Heishui County Magistrate were caught, then the Blood Blade Sect...
The final result would certainly not be too good either, so they were caught in a dilemma at this moment.
"Our methods these past few days have been extremely brutal, so presumably the local people will not help us hide, unless we return all this grain," the Heishui County Magistrate said earnestly.
