What to do if you have too many golden fingers? Walk sideways!

【The mission of overthrowing County Magistrate Zhen is completed.】

[Reward: Upgrade any skill by one level.]

Gu Xi was thinking about the SUV he bought, and chose to upgrade the space without hesitation.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the storage space has been upgraded to level three. ]

Gu Xi explored it with his consciousness and found that the space had been upgraded tenfold, from the original fifty or sixty square meters to five or six hundred square meters, which was as big as a large supermarket.

She couldn't help but feel overjoyed that she could stock up again!

Suddenly, a golden light flashed again, and a new task came.

[Mission: Solve the problem of food shortage for the Northwest Army. ]

[Reward: A mysterious skill gift pack, or an upgrade of any skill. ]

[Punishment: Format all the host's skills. ]

"Huh! What a stinky system! Finally it stopped using Wu Dazhuang to disgust me."

"It seems that the host misses Wu Dazhuang very much. Why not change back to the original punishment?"

"roll!"

"Okay! The system will leave smoothly now."

After sending the system away, Gu Xi's thoughts returned to reality and she found that the other four people were all staring at her.

Seeing Gu Xi's changing expression, Qi said cautiously:

"What mother said may not be feasible. Xier, you should make the decision."

Unknowingly, Gu Xi has become the backbone and pillar of the family.

"What mother said makes sense. Let's go to Dingxi County first to take a look at the situation." In order to complete the task, Gu Xi had to make this trip.

Now that she has a bigger space and has a batch of gold and silver taken away from the Zhen family, it will definitely be no problem for her to buy a large amount of food in the modern world. The food problem is not difficult to solve.

Suddenly, she had an idea. She had not yet had the chance to take revenge on the evil grain store that had reported him.

Be sure to teach them a lesson before leaving.

So he agreed with Qi and others to set out early tomorrow morning and buy some food for the journey today.

As for Governor Zhou Qing, after arresting Zhen Wude, he immediately conducted a surprise interrogation.

Zhou Qing's men were all experts at torture. In less than a day, Zhen Wude confessed and also revealed the stolen goods hidden in his secret room.

Zhou Qing sent people to search and seized a batch of food.

Zhen Wude was in trouble now. Zhou Qing ordered his men to continue interrogating him and make sure to find out where he had hidden all the embezzled money and properties.

After torturing Zhen Wude for a long time and seeing that he was about to collapse, Zhou Qing felt that there was something strange about this matter.

Zhen Wude really seemed to have no idea that the secret room was full of food.

Zhou Qing called the person who was sent out to follow last night and asked him questions in detail.

The subordinate said:

"Sir, I am sure that the Xi man did not take any boxes with him when he left. Even if he had hidden something, it would not be much. And the man who looks like General Chu did not seem to have anything with him either. Only the man with him had a lot of things hanging on his body. But according to my guess, it seems to be similar to the food we seized, because I can smell the fragrance from a long distance."

Zhou Qing twirled his beard, this was strange.

That means that this batch of food existed before they entered, but what about the boxes containing gold and silver?

How come it disappeared?

Could it be that after the person he sent to follow came back, the kid from the Chu family went back to the county government office and took away the gold and silver?

But I also find it unbelievable. Why didn’t you take it with you when you went there for the first time?

Zhou Qing, who was confused, could only ask people to continue interrogating Zhen Wude, his master and close subordinates.

-

The moon is like water.

Gu Xi changed into night clothes and went out.

The tracking duo followed Gu Xi out of habit.

"Boss, she is not going to the county government office today!" After two consecutive nights of visiting the county government office at night, Wu Dajiang felt that Gu Xi would not be used to it if she did not stroll around the county government office at night.

"Yeah, I saw it." Chu Zhao said.

"Then she should go to pick up those boxes tonight?" Wu Dajiang guessed.

"Haha." Chu Zhao sneered in his heart. He felt that Wu Dajiang was too optimistic.

This woman always plays by her own rules.

Gu Xi came to the door of the grain store and climbed over the wall next to it.

"Huh? Why did she go to the grain store? There were so many delicious foods in the secret room yesterday, but she didn't steal any of them. Did she come here to steal food?" Wu Dajiang couldn't stop thinking about those foods, but it was a pity that the governor sealed off the county government office today, so he would not have the chance to eat anything inside.

Chu Zhao looked a little solemn.

If he guessed correctly, Zhen Wude was the boss behind this grain store. What was this woman doing here?

Does she have a grudge against Zhen Wude?

Chu Zhao still followed from a distance without making a sound.

There was no one on duty at the grain store at night. Gu Xi took out a small silent electric saw, broke into the store directly, and put all the grain inside into the space, which amounted to about one ton.

After harvesting the grain, she was about to leave when she suddenly heard a noise coming from the backyard of the grain store.

Gu Xi tiptoed over and hid behind a big tree, then saw two people who seemed to be urinating against the wall.

And then we chatted.

"Brother, why hasn't anyone delivered food tonight?" asked the slightly taller man.

"Shh - don't you know yet? Although the owner of our grain store is surnamed Xu, I heard that he is actually related to the county magistrate." The short man looked around and then spoke.

"Why are you being so careful? It's just the two of us here and no one else will know. Just tell me. You're free anyway." said the tall man.

Gu Xi, who was hiding in the dark, laughed in her heart, and she knew it.

The short man probably wanted to show that he had connections and background, so he said:

"My aunt's cousin's nephew works in the county government. I heard him say that this grain store was actually opened by the county magistrate, and Boss Xu was just the shopkeeper. Now the county magistrate has been taken away by the governor, and who knows if he can come back. It's still unknown who will benefit from the grain in the end."

"Ah? Then what should we do? Should we continue to stay here and watch over the food? Will anyone pay us?" the tall man asked worriedly.

"You are afraid of nothing! There is food in this huge house. If we don't pay you, we can just move some away. We will definitely earn more than the wages."

As they talked, they walked away.

However, there was a gleam of excitement in Gu Xi's eyes.

There is actually enough food for a whole house here. It seems that what is in the front room of the grain store is nothing.

Anyway, there is a lot of space now, so she plans to collect all the grain in the house. Moreover, the boss behind the grain is the corrupt official Zhen Wude, so she has no psychological pressure to collect it.

From a distance, Chu Zhao saw Gu Xi first sneak into the grain store, and then come out and go to the big house at the back.

Chu Zhao knew that was where Zhen Wude hid grain. What was she going there for?
