There is an old saying that before the army moves, food and grass will come first. Throughout history, there are many examples of winning and losing battles because of being stuck in food and grass. This is why Li Chen insisted on mastering the Ministry of Revenue. Although the royal guard of the Ministry of Revenue is a good man now, he is a neutral faction after all, and there are too many political uncertain factors, so Li Chen dared not go to gambling with the royal guard whether he would cooperate with him.

Whether it is disaster relief now or future marches and wars, the Ministry of Revenue will always be one of the crucial steps. If the Ministry of Revenue needs to take out money and grain, the Ministry of Revenue cannot take out money and grain. Then how can it provide relief for this disaster and fight this battle?

The court of Daqin was surging for more than half a month, and every day it was like a sensation in the court. Many people were staring at the position of Jifu, but no one expected that the good old man Wang Gong, who had not said a word in the past half month, would actually sit in this position.

Wang Guan naturally took the position of the second assistant as he wished, so naturally in exchange for interests, Chen Ping also took over the position of Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. Chen Ping also made suggestions under Li Chen for a long time, although this qualification was a little lacking. However, no one in the court opposed Chen Ping's appointment as Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. You must know that Li Chen had just taken Feng Quji's second assistant down, and no one wanted to touch Li Chen's brow at this time.

Time flies, and more than a month has passed. Now it is already cold and winter. Although Li Chen's body has been calculated, his qi and blood are still insufficient, and he is very afraid of the cold.

"Driving, driving, driving."

Several fast horses were wearing thick air and followed a carriage from the outside of the city. Two fogs were breathing from the horse's nose, as if they were swallowing clouds and spitting mist. The people riding the horse were all wearing black official uniforms and had standard waist knives around their waists. These people were all from the Black Ice Platform.

Li Chen brought Hei Bingtai to Didao County. Feng Xiu's case had been on hold for more than a month. For more than a month, Li Chen had been busy with the Xianyang affairs. Now the matter in Xianyang has ended. Chen Ping has already taken the position of Minister of Revenue, and Feng Quji and Feng Jie and his son have also resigned from their official positions. The difference is that Feng Quji resigned voluntarily, while Feng Jie was resigned. Hu Hai used Feng Jie's troops to attack Lijiazhuang. Even if Li Chen did not pursue the matter, the First Emperor naturally did not feel at ease to let him be responsible for guarding the imperial city.

Didao County belongs to the Guanzhong region. Guanzhong refers to the Weihe Plain near the Qinling Mountains in Shaanxi. Because it is located in the Weihe River Basin, the Guanzhong area is quite rich. Guanzhong relies on the Qinling Mountains and the Weihe River passes through it. Not to mention the mountains and rivers here, there is also the natural barrier of the Qinling Mountains. This Guanzhong area is the birthplace of the Qinling Mountains. At least eight of the ten people in Guanzhong are old Qin people. The old Qin people are bloody, so this Guanzhong area is also called the Great Qin army camp.

As soon as I entered this Didao County, I looked around and saw that there were mostly people of the elderly, weak, women and children. The people in this Didao County advocated soldiers, so seven or eight out of ten capitals were among the Qin army in this prime.

As soon as Li Chen arrived at Didao County, he came directly to the county government. It was cold and it made Li Chen so cold that he couldn't stretch out his body. He finished the work earlier and could return to Xianyang earlier.

"Mr. Marquis, do you know that in addition to the Zhang family, there are also Wang and Qian families." In the county government, Didao County Magistrate said to Li Chen.

There are few things that can be hidden from the Emperor's Qin Dynasty. Before coming, Li Chen's omnipresent intelligence agency naturally had already investigated the matter clearly. Rather than saying that Li Chen came to investigate the case, it would be better to say that he was coming to arrest people. The Ministry of Revenue involved the person in this case, and the biggest official position was Feng Xiu. Now Feng Xiu and his two subordinates have been arrested and the people who accepted bribes have been recruited, so the bribers can't escape.

The county magistrate Didao persuaded, "This Zhang, Wang and Qian families are all big families, and many of their children are in the army. If things go big, there will be a rebound. Moreover, the Wang family is said to have some relationship with the sub-super Wang Gong."

The magistrate of Didao persuaded Li Chen openly and secretly, as if he was afraid that Li Chen would make a big move. This time, Li Chen was really confused. Could it be that the magistrate of Didao was not innocent? But in the information from Tianting, the magistrate of Didao could be called a good official for the country and the people.

"You seem to be afraid that I will make a big fight, right?" Li Chen asked straight to the point.

The magistrate of Didao smiled and said, "I'm not afraid of the Marquis' jokes. I'm really afraid of some trouble. There are seven floors of Didao's land that are military households. Nearly half of these seven floors are from Zhang, Wang, and Qian families. Don't talk about how they came from these lands, but now the people of Didao can live by relying on these three families. If it gets a big splash, I'm afraid that the people's lives will not be able to survive."

Hearing this, Li Chen suddenly realized that this person was afraid of the unknown. The magistrate of Didao County was responsible for the livelihood of the people of a county, so he naturally had to consider the people of this county.

Li Chen knew that this was a good official, so he patted his shoulder and said, "If people are caught, the land will be distributed to the people. Life can only be better and better, but not worse and worse."

It was deep in the night, and several teams of people from the Black Ice Platform began to surround the Zhang Mansion. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, they did not enter the city during the day, but instead swarmed in while it was dark. At the same time, the other two families also had the same scene.

The yard of the Zhang family is extremely large. It seems a bit inappropriate to say that it is the yard, and it seems that the top scholar is more in line with it. The Zhang family is called Zhang Bancheng in Didao. Only the Zhang family has such strength to buy such a large yard in the county town.

Li Chen ordered the soldiers to surround the Zhang Mansion, and the front and back doors were blocked.

"Bang, bang, bang."

The Xuanjing Department is responsible for arresting corrupt officials, while the Black Ice Platform is responsible for arresting the common merchants. Therefore, the people in the Black Ice Platform are extremely reckless. Without saying a word, a few people raised the wood and started to hit the door.

Under the impact of the bucket as thick as a bucket, even the city wall gate could be opened. Within a few strokes, the gate of Zhang Mansion was knocked out. Seeing that the gate of Zhang Mansion was knocked open, a group of people from the black ice platform flocked in.

"Who are you? Let me tell you, my son is under Rong Luhou's command, but I am a fourth-rank general. If you suffer a crime, I will let you go without any hesitation." The master of the Zhang family seemed not afraid when he saw the group of people breaking in, and said arrogantly.

These fourth-rank generals are not high or low, and they are indeed able to walk sideways in Didao County. You should know that Li Chen is now a stolen figure in the Qin Dynasty, and it is indeed a scary person to bring out Li Chen's name.

When Li Chen heard this, his eyes narrowed into a slit and asked, "Do you know, who am I?"
