"Do you know that Captain Xue doesn't look like a big man, but he has already lost several lives under his command..."

"Me too!"

Ren Mulan immediately ran to Lao Liang and stood next to him.

Even if she doesn't learn swordsmanship, she is still willing to learn how to scold and manage others, and finally have another meal with her.

After training for a while, Ren Mulan found an opportunity to secretly talk to Lao Liang.

"The man surnamed Song came here. Could it be that he saw something?"

That night, she killed Song Li. After taking Xue Bai and others out of the secret house, Xue Bai asked Lao Liang to stab Song Li on the shoulder again.

"You can tell the truth, just forget about it."

Wei Xie.

Song Mian was still attending to the funeral of his brother recently and looked a little haggard.

He seemed to care about revenge. After a few pleasantries, he even asked about Gao Chong.

"Since the county lieutenant failed to capture Gao Chong, is he no longer in Henan Prefecture?"

It was actually Xue Bai who invited Song Mian here today, but he could also follow Song Mian's topic and talk about what he wanted to say.

"If you weren't in Henan Prefecture, maybe you followed the smuggler's boat across the Yellow River and went to Hebei?"

"Is there something in the county captain's words?" Song Mian asked.

Xue Bai did not mince words and said: "There should be many people in the county who know that Gao Chong has been smuggling."

"Yeah?"

"I wonder if Mr. Song has heard that I plan to forge a large number of farm tools?" Xue Bai said: "I won't hide it from you, just because I heard that the iron stones smuggled by Gao Chong are about to be shipped."

"Does the county lieutenant want to confiscate it?"

"One thing is very strange." Xue Bai said: "Everyone knows that Guo Wanjin minted copper coins privately. Many new copper coins were confiscated in Guo Mansion, but we don't know where he minted them."

After saying that, he looked at Song Mian.

He already knew one thing. It was Song Mian who held a banquet at Luhun Villa, introduced Wei Ji to Gao Chong, and bribed Wei Ji to conceal the smuggling incident. However, Song Mian was bent on revenge and was the one who wanted to get rid of Gao Chong the most among the wealthy gentry in Yanshi.

Worshipful.

He could not find where Guo Wanjin minted copper coins privately. This matter was different from making weapons. Coins could be minted in Henan Prefecture. Judging from the number of coins found in the Guo family, it should not be too far away.

Therefore, Xue Bai had a guess.

"What exactly did the county captain want to say?" Song Mian looked puzzled.

"I was wondering if I could use these newly minted copper coins to buy iron and stone, make farm tools, and open up wasteland. Money is secondary. I need political achievements."

Song Mian said: "I still don't understand what the county captain is talking about."

Xue Bai waved to him and asked him to lean forward and asked in a low voice: "How about our cooperation? Let's make copper coins together."

Song Mian was shocked. He stood up and said with an upright face, "It is a serious crime to cast copper coins privately. Could the county captain be joking?"

"Some people are fake friends, and some people are real friends." Xue Bai said, "I hope there can be real communication between us, what do you think?"

Song Mian's face was still full of shock and confusion.

He is not someone who can be seen through easily. After all, Wang Yanxiang has not been able to see through him for so many years.

"The county magistrate may have misunderstood something. I will never dare to be involved in this serious crime. The county magistrate was joking when I gave him lunch today."

Song Mian bowed and turned around to go out.

After taking two steps, he remembered something and turned around and said, "By the way, tomorrow is the funeral of Ba Lang. Would the county lieutenant be willing to go to Luhun Villa to see him off?"

Xue Bai understood, nodded, and said: "Okay, I should go."
