At the same time, in a shop in the west of the city called Da Yu Mu Shop, Liu Wei was playing with a handful of new rice in her hands. org

"Seven hundred gold taels, shopkeeper. Isn't this price a bit expensive?"

The owner of the rice shop stood behind the counter and was calculating something when he heard this. He said without much concern: "Right now it's seven hundred coins. In a while, even a thousand coins might not be enough to buy half a pot."

This was truly a deceitful business. To be able to earn this much money, they weren't afraid of being struck by lightning.

After exiting the rice shop, Liu Wei said to Rong Ling: "Up until now, the price of the rice shop here in the west side of the city has risen the highest, far ahead of the south side of the city, in the city, and amongst the five grain shops, the Da Yu Rice Shop is the most expensive, who is the owner of the Da Yu Rice Shop?"

Rong Ling thought for a while before replying, "My surname is Qin, my mansion is also in the west side of the city."

Liu Wei scratched her chin: "Looks like this Boss Qin is very close to the rebel army. If we leak out all the inside information to him, then we can assume that Qingzhou will be in chaos."

"The Azure Province is in chaos. Ya Wen Yan's feelings. org "said Rong Ling.

Liu Wei shook her head: "It's not chaotic enough yet. A few days later, we found out that all the officials in the active service of the Cyan Plains were all missing. Although they said that they were missing, they were actually still here. We do not know what their plans are, but it seems that their next step will not be satisfied with impersonation. They want to truly occupy the Azure Province, to openly walk out and declare their ownership. That is why that Boss Qin raised the price of rice. Imagine, what would the people do if they woke up and found out that another group of people had invaded their prefecture? First, escape, second, resist, third, surrender. Regardless of which of these three it was, it was inevitable for people to be scared, and it was also necessary for people to grow up. Right now, the people still do not know who the new owner of the Azure Province is. Yet, that boss Qin has already started to raise the price.

Rong Ling listened quietly, and after a long while, she said, "Let's go to the Qin Manor."

Liu Wei replied with a "En" and took a deep breath in, muttering to herself, "I wonder where Fu Zichen is, and if she's in danger or not …"

Rong Ling did not say anything. He wanted to know whether or not the officials of the Azure Province were still alive.

In the evening, Liu Wei and Rong Ling had arrived at the back door of the Qin Manor. The Qin Manor seemed to be built into a small building, and the back door was wide open.

Liu Wei and Rong Ling observed from the side for a while. After confirming that these workers were not servants of the Qin Manor, but rather fortifications teams hired from outside, they did not bother to hide themselves and entered through the back door while swaggering.

As soon as he entered, he saw a tall young man. The young man was also a worker and had a hoe on his shoulder. When he saw them, he was stunned for a moment before taking half a step back and bowing.

They were treating them as the masters of the Qin Residence.

Liu Wei made an pretentious "En" sound, before she left, her gaze landed on the worker's legs, after that she paused for a moment, then immediately looked at the other workers' legs, and pulled on Rong Ling's sleeves.

Rong Ling also saw it and called out to the worker, "You."

The worker stopped and asked in puzzlement, "Young Master, what orders do you have?"

"What's your name?" Rong Ling asked.

The worker paused for a moment, then said slowly, "The younger one's surname is Lu, and his name is Yi. He is their foreman."

"Your shoes are dirty." Liu Wei suddenly said.

The foreman called Lu Yi looked at his feet, because he often did manual labor, he was afraid that his pants would trip his legs. Even in the middle of winter, they still rolled up their pants to their calves, so their ankles and shoes would certainly be very dirty, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they were wrapped in mud.

Lu Yi didn't know what these two gongzis meant, so he could only respectfully reply, "Yes, it's dirty. I've insulted the two noble young masters' eyes."

"That's not what I meant." Amongst the two of them, the slim young master pointed at his feet, "Too dirty."

Lu Yi still didn't understand. His brows were tightly knitted.

The two gongzis didn't say anything and left together.

After the two of them had disappeared, Lu Yi looked at his feet suspiciously, then looked at the feet of another worker beside him.

After this comparison, his back was instantly drenched in cold sweat.

Two years ago, he was injured, and was forced to retire. After that, he became a mason in Qingzhou City, and later he set up his own small team of fortifications. In the team, he recruited a few brawny men who had the strength of a boss, but lacked the knowledge.

And among these people, Lu Yi, who was born into the army, was especially outstanding. Whether it was physical strength or endurance, he was much stronger than these rough men.

Just like now, because of his many years of military training, he had subconsciously gotten used to walking. He would first land on the ground with his toes, which would save him a lot of effort and also reduce his weight. But because of this, the tip of his shoes would also wear out a lot. As for the other normal people, since they hadn't gone through military training, they would be more used to having their heels hit the ground first. Therefore, their heels would be dirtier and more frayed than their toes.

Just now, when those two young masters had mentioned his feet and his toes alone, it was obvious that he came from a military background.

Lu Yi's heart skipped a beat. When he came back to his senses, he discovered that his forehead was covered in sweat. The sweat ran down his temples and flowed down his neck, making him shiver in excitement.

Lu Yi took a deep breath, then asked the worker beside him while still in shock, "Who were those two just now?"

The worker did not know him, so he casually said: "Maybe he is a young master from one of the rooms."

Lu Yi didn't dare to be careless. Bringing his hoe with him, he followed the two of them as they ran off in a mad dash.

Just as he walked into the garden, he was struck by a stone in the distance. The stone smashed into his body, causing his entire body to stiffen, unable to move.

Point.

Lu Yi's eyes widened in fear.

After a while, he saw two people walk out from behind the fake mountain. They were the two youths from before. The tall and stern youth dragged him into a crack in the garden, and then coldly asked, "Who are you to?"

Lu Yi could still speak, but he didn't dare to say anything. Sweat soaked through his clothes.

He patted the shoulders of the cold-looking teenager and looked at Lu Yi, saying in a gentle voice, "If you are a rebel, it is impossible for you to not see that we are not the masters of the Qin Manor. However, you did indeed think that we were the masters of the Qin Manor just now and bowed to us, so I judge that you are not a member of the rebel army. This means that we found out that you were born in the army, and there are actually a lot of people who retired to work in the tile industry. But if you weren't afraid, you wouldn't have realized it and ran into the garden to look for us, and since you came looking for us, this proves that you aren't an ordinary person who came from the military. You have another identity, so, tell us now, whose person are you? "
