"I calculated that there are about 8 billion acres of cultivated land in Dazhou, with an average of a little more than ten acres per person. The yield of the upper field is five to six stones per mu, the yield of the middle field is three to four stones per mu, and the yield of the lower field is between one and two stones.
, and the cultivated land in Youzhou is a little over 300 million acres, with the seventh floor being lower fields, the third layer mostly being middle fields, and less than 1% of the fields being upper fields!"
"The official warehouse is short of 50 million shi of grain, and the charity warehouse is short of 40 million shi of grain! It's like a big pot fell on the head!"
Li Mu said.
If something like this happens, Li Mu is the number one person in charge and cannot escape.
As for saying, I just took office, this is my predecessor’s fault, I won’t take the blame, can I say this? I can’t say it, the people will not pay attention to it.
Suddenly, there was a deathly silence in the study room, as if it was plunged into endless darkness.
Pressing on Li Mu's chest, it seemed that he couldn't breathe.
Suddenly, Li Mu looked at Ji Xuewei, looked at the princess, and asked, "Do you know something?"
"I know something, but the problem is so serious, it is beyond my imagination!" Ji Xuewei said. At the previous moment, my father had received some news, but the situation was so collapsed, which was unexpected.
Li Mu took the teacup and wanted to drink water to suppress his shock, but his hand shook and the teacup fell to the ground and broke.
Finally, Li Mu showed a complicated smile and said: "What to do if a mine is found? It's either violent demining or directly walking into the mine..."
"When I came to Youzhou, I thought that there would be a problem with the Youzhou granary. It might be short of one, two, or three floors. But the loss is like this, but it is unexpected!"
Li Mu said: "The officials here are too courageous. Do they think the law does not punish the public, or do they think someone is too scrupulous to explode it?"
"...This matter must be kept secret...it must be kept secret absolutely, and no news can be leaked."
"Not yet. All those with knowledge of the situation are under control. But it won't be hidden for long!" Ji Xuewei said.
Li Mu said: "I know how long you can hide it. It's better to die early than to die late. Every day you can live is a day, and every day you can be rescued is a day! You can't give up treatment!"
Thinking of this, Li Mu somewhat admired Chiang Kai-shek. In 1949, when Guo Dang was about to die, he still refused to give up treatment. He would save him every day and never give up treatment. Not to mention other things, this alone made his firm will invincible.
Taoist heart is admirable.
There are losers who can leave their names in the history books, but losers also have their own uniqueness.
"The Xuanjing Division wants to investigate, arresting people is the second most important thing. The key is to get the food back and make amends before it's too late!" Li Mu said. The only good thing is that early detection and early treatment would be possible if it is done after half a year or a year.
If you find out, then there is absolutely no hope.
"It is absolutely impossible for such a huge amount of grain to be stolen silently. I asked the checkpoints and there is no record of a large amount of grain leaving the checkpoints... In other words, Youzhou mainly imports grains, and there is no, and it is impossible, to have grains.
Massive output!”
"The most dangerous place is the safest place. The food should be hidden in some secret places...it should still be in Youzhou!"
Thinking about the case, Li Mu suddenly smiled.
No woodcutter is sold for a hundred miles, and no rice is sold for a thousand miles.
That is to say, there is no sale of firewood a hundred miles away, and there is no large-scale transportation of grains thousands of miles away.
This is ancient times, not future generations.
In later generations, there are ocean-going freighters and trains. Even if food is transported thousands of miles away, there is still profit, and the profit is quite a lot.
But in this era, transportation is limited. If the product transportation volume is large and the transportation cost is high, money will be lost.
It can be inferred from this that the food is still in Youzhou, but it has just fallen into the hands of some people and been hidden.
If there is a calamity, the price of food can be raised, or even the court can be blackmailed.
"It's a good idea to switch from left hand to right hand!" Li Mu smiled, it was time to interrogate those rats.
…………
In the interrogation room, Li Mu brought Feng Wuji to trial.
"Sir, we meet again!" Feng Wuji said.
"Yes, we meet again!" Li Mu said: "Feng Wuji, he is fifty-two years old this year. He is a master... twenty years ago, he passed the second-level exam and was ranked third. Later he served as the magistrate of Huaihua County. He served several times
I was promoted three years ago to the fifth-grade granary envoy. Now you are in charge of the granary. The grain deficit is more than four levels, which is about ten million dan. Aren't you going to say anything?"
Feng Wuji said: "When I took office, there was a deficit in grain in the granary! At least a deficit of five million stones!"
Li Mu said: "Why didn't you report it?"
Feng Wuji said: "I have already reported it, but nothing happened, and no news came. Instead, not long after, someone warned me... So, I compromised. If I didn't compromise, I wouldn't be able to see you alive, and I might have been arrested by now.
Buried alive!”
Li Mu said to the guard on the side: "Let's investigate and see if he has any memorials?"
The guard disappeared, and a moment later news came. Sure enough, Feng Wuji had reported it three years ago, but it all fell into disgrace and no news came.
Li Mu's face felt a little feverish.
"In the three years since I took office, I have lost five million stones of food. What do you think?" Li Mu said.
"Master Li, why bother to be persistent!"
Feng Wuji said: "It's rare to be confused in life, neither deaf nor dumb, and not to be a leader. There are many things, even if you know it, you still can't bear it in the end. Instead of this, it is better to choose silence, and after three years, change to another place
, everything is the same!!”
"In the eyes of adults, life, justice, etc. are very important. But in my eyes, justice is not important, life is the most important; life is not important, wife and children are the most important!"
As he said that, Feng Wuji smiled, a trace of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he fell to the ground.
Li Mu stepped forward and tried his best to save him, but after a few breaths, he was completely breathless and died.
Feng Wuji died during the interrogation.
He went forward to check and found that he died of a highly poisonous poison. After taking it, he would die in just a few breaths.
"Duhunhunsan!"
Li Mu felt a little depressed. He checked carefully and found that a button was missing on his clothes. Inside the button was Duanhun Powder. The dose was very small and very toxic. It only required the size of a button. After taking it, it only took a few breaths.
Kill.
Duanhunsan comes from the Holy Land of Hidden Killing. It is the signature poison of the Holy Land of Hidden Killing.
"Rest in peace! May you be a good person in the next life!" Li Mu said.
Looking outside, the sky was gloomy, and it seemed that a strong wind was blowing, and a storm was coming.
After a while, there was a crashing sound, and raindrops fell, sweeping across the sky and earth. Heavy rain was coming.
