They walked a few more steps inside and found a turning aisle ahead.
As soon as they turned the corner, they found that on both sides of the tunnel were clean cells!
When they glanced over, they saw sacks that were swollen to the brim.
The sacks filled every cell as high as a hill.
"Husband, what are these?" Yun Ruoyue was shocked when she looked at these sacks.
Fortunately, none of the cell doors were locked, so Chu Xuanchen walked in immediately and untied the sacks.
As soon as he untied it, he saw that it was filled with golden rice.
Chu Xuanchen was startled, and he quickly untied the other sacks, only to find that they were also filled with rice.
Both he and Yun Ruoyue were shocked, there were so many rice hidden here.
When they saw the rice, it was like seeing gold, because the rice in the famine years was worth as much as gold!
"My lord, I didn't expect rice to be hidden in this dungeon. It turns out that this is Su Cheng's granary. He actually hid so much rice, but told the people that he had no food. He is really greedy. There is so much food. The Su family can't finish eating it even if it's rotten, he actually hoarded it all here and didn't give any to the people!" Looking at the rice, Yun Ruoyue felt mixed feelings.
This Su Cheng really deserves to die!
These rice grains also represent hope. Now, the common people are saved.
Chu Xuanchen looked at the grain in disbelief, and he roughly counted it, and found that there were as many as five thousand bags!
With so much food, his Su Cheng family would not be able to eat it all in ten lifetimes.
No wonder he didn't find the granary in the government office before, it turned out that the granary was here.
Thinking of this, he clenched his fists fiercely, "What a Su Cheng, he dares to hide so much food privately, and doesn't open a warehouse to provide disaster relief. When the king returns next time, he will put Shang Fang's sword around his neck and force him to Disaster relief!"
"My lord, this Jiangzhou is Su Cheng's territory, and we don't have enough manpower. We haven't got all the evidence of his corruption yet. If you force him like this, or kill him directly, I'm afraid it will cause the dissatisfaction of the Soviet Party and the shock of the ruling and opposition parties. Instead of confronting him head-on, let's think of a way to ease the situation, so that he can open a warehouse to help the disaster without resorting to violence. When we have all the evidence of his corruption, we can punish him legitimately!" Yun Ruoyue hurriedly Persuade.
"What good method do you have?" Chu Xuanchen looked at Yun Ruoyue.
Yun Ruoyue said: "I ran into Qin Fu in the back garden just now, that money-greedy doctor we met last time. He said that Su Cheng had a disease of wealth and honor, but he didn't let him point it out. I thought of a way, we can start from Su Cheng. Let¡¯s start with Cheng¡¯s illness, let him not waste food, and use all the food for disaster relief. Why should we use a knife to solve a problem that can be solved with words!¡±
"Oh, what way?" Chu Xuanchen asked curiously.
Yun Ruoyue blinked playfully, leaned towards his ear, and whispered in a low voice for a while.
After Chu Xuanchen finished listening, he nodded and said, "Okay, I also think your method is feasible, so follow your method."
He doesn't have enough manpower, so it's really not appropriate to fight Su Cheng forcefully, otherwise he is afraid of hurting Yue'er.
Soon, Chu Xuanchen checked the dungeon again, and after confirming that all the things hidden inside were rice, he tied up all the sacks before walking out of the prison with Yun Ruoyue.
After walking out of the prison, he also locked the door and stuffed the key into the servant's arms, creating an illusion that he had never entered. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
