Chapter 254: Kaiyuan County Case 8

You can bear to beat an old man, I am really disappointed in the next, it seems that you are already dying, and you will definitely not live long.

The steward was not angry, but chuckled: "No matter what you say, within a month, the bet between you and me will be clear, boy, I said that you won't win in a month, even three months, or even three years, believe it or not?"

Song Qing doesn't believe it, even if there is no way now, then there has to be a way, anyway, these people will die.

stared straight at each other, and then everyone finally headed for the mine, including the old man.

The steward looked at their departing backs and couldn't help but laugh.

"What, a prisoner dares to fight with me? Tell you kid, if you continue to be too bold, I'll kill you here if you don't do it.

In the distance, a team came over, they were none other than Man Kun and the five hundred soldiers that Zhang Kailiang had just given.

Man Kun led them and came on a tall horse, full of spirits and red faces.

When he came to the door of the mine, the steward immediately greeted him, and then said, "Master, why are you here?" You see, it's early in the morning, and my subordinates didn't come to greet me."

Man Kun shook his head and said, "No need for the servants, this official came here today just to bring you someone over."

"At present, there are more and more prisoners in my mine, and the official is worried that they will surpass us in the future.

When the steward saw so many people, he couldn't help but be happy, now it's okay, there is no pressure.

"Master, you came very timely, someone ran away yesterday, but he has been executed by the little one, and now with these people, I can be more assured and bold.

Man Kun snorted, got off the horse, and looked in all directions, this is the mine hole he brought out single-handedly, and he can bring him thousands of silver income in a month.

"Officer, this official asks you, how are the mines doing these days? How much coal can be produced in a day, and how much silver can be sold in a day?"

The official said truthfully: "Back to the master, at present, we produce 20 tons of coal a day, and the price of a ton of coal has risen, and now it is 21 tons."

"Twenty-one? Very good, it is four hundred taels of silver at the end of a day, and more than ten thousand taels a month.

"Well, you have done a good job in this matter, it can be regarded as very good, I am very satisfied, master, but there is one thing I have to tell you now, that is, pay attention to one surnamed Song in the future.

"The surname Song? Sir, what's going on?"

Man Kun continued: "Because this person surnamed Song may be the son of Song Ci, and he is also the current criminal officer, the lord has learned the news that this person has come to Kaiyuan County." It is said that this person has solved two cases in just one month, and two magistrates have been dealt with. ”

The official nodded, now he had to be more careful, and he didn't dare to be careless.

"Okay, go to the office, you are busy with your going, my lord, I will take a look here, and also, these five hundred soldiers are currently for you, you arrange it yourself, in short, the master means, from now on, no one is allowed to escape."

"Yes, sir, I see.

In the mine, Song Qing and the others sat on the ground, and they no longer planned to work hard at the moment, they already had a great hatred for this mine.

Everyone sat in a pitch-black position, and after sweeping left and right to see no one, Song Qing said calmly: "Everyone, you also saw the situation just now, this is a black kiln, we must find a way to get out."

"Look at it, just look at the situation just now, even if I go out to be a beggar, it's better than here."

Wang San actually began to miss the life in the cell at this moment.

"My lord, you just say what should we do, this day is not a solution, I don't want to work for corrupt officials for free, even if he is hungry outside, I won't help him."

Song Qing thought for a while, "Wang San, you take the time to tell our people that as long as anyone can escape from this place, then go to Lin'an non-stop and go to Lord Ji."

"Who is Lord Ji? My lord, not only do we not know each other, but we also don't know where the other party lives, how can I find this!"

"Besides, but before I saw this Lord Ji, I was killed, wouldn't it be a pity at that time?"

Song Qingdao: "You can rest assured about this, Lord Ji is a clean official, he will not harm you, at the same time, as long as you continue to inquire about the news of the Ji Mansion once you arrive in Lin'an, someone will always tell you, and then you wait for him to bring thousands of people over."

.“ Yes.. People, Lord Ji probably won't believe us, besides, it's not an official history for us to wait, can he agree?"

Song Qing also forgot about something, and continued: "You can rest assured about this, as long as you report my name, remember that my name is Song Qing."

Everyone snorted, they had had enough of the days here, although it had only been a few days, but everyone was tired of it, and they didn't want to continue to live like this.

From afar, there was an angry shout from the servant, "Hey, you are sitting lazy, you don't want to eat lunch!"

Song Qing and the others hurriedly apologized, and then got up to work.

Soon after noon, they walked outside and began to line up for food, and then an old man seemed to be hungry for a long time, and the plate in his hand accidentally fell to the ground, and all of it had been spilled.

The steward looked at it and scolded: "What doesn't have eyes, it's not that I won't give you food, it's that you accidentally knocked it over, and you can't blame me."

The old man kept apologizing, hoping to give himself some, but the steward refused to agree, and shouted angrily: "What are you still standing here for? The food is strictly in accordance with the standards, you ask for an extra portion, what if someone doesn't have to eat later?"

There was no way, so the old man had to continue to pick up the steamed buns that had already occupied the soil, and then went to the side and began to eat slowly.

When Song Qing saw this scene, he was very sad, but he was helpless.

At the same time, he also found that there were hundreds of more officials here, and they were scattered relatively widely, hundreds of people, almost filling the entire mountain.

Song Qing whispered, "It's over, so many people have come again, it's even more difficult to escape from this place now, it's not easy."

Tang Yueyue and others also made discoveries.

At lunchtime, Man Kun walked out from the side, his eyes swept over Song Qing and the others next to him one by one, and he felt that this person was a little not simple, so he walked over.

Man Kun said coldly: "This little friend, I feel that you are a little special, judging from your eyebrows, I think you are not an ordinary person, I don't know why you fell here?" Could it be that it was also because he went to the streets, so he didn't have the money to pay the fine?"

Song Qing glared at the other party, he suspected that his identity as a criminal officer had been exposed, and he didn't dare to show too much confidence at the moment.

So he deliberately retreated backwards, and said timidly: "What do you want?... I'm already working here, so you're still trying to kill me?"

"Kill you? No, no, the official just thinks you're a little weird, what's wrong? Can't you ask if it's not the official?"

Song Qing glared at the other party, it was this person who opened a coal mine, which caused so many people to be arrested here, and some people also lost their lives.

"That.... My lord... Of course, you can casually ask, after all.... After all, I'm just an ordinary person, and.... I don't know.... I don't know what you're looking for me?"

A servant brought a stool, Man Kun sat opposite Song Qing, and then said: "It's nothing, this official just wants to ask Xiaoyou, I don't know what your surname is?" Where do you live? I heard from my subordinates, you are a foreigner?"

Song Qing snorted in order to see through the other party's intentions.

"Adult, the little one's surname is Jia, but he is from Tiantai, Zhejiang, what's wrong with the adult, do you have any doubts about the little one? Besides, the little one is also an honest person, although there is the idea of drawing a sword to help when the road is uneven, but the small one has always been law-abiding here!"

Man Kun chuckled and said: "The official does know about this matter, but right, the official is indeed very suspicious of you, and the official heard from his subordinates that there is still a bet between you and him?" Song Qing was shocked in his mind, it seemed that he was indeed too nosy in gambling, and he would inevitably expose himself at this moment.

But if we don't do it, won't more people be framed?

Tang Yueyue also reacted, and then she was not afraid at all.

"My lord, we are husband and wife, this time we are going to go from the rooftop to Jiannan Dongchuan, because we have important things to do, so we didn't know that there would be such a thing when we passed through the county seat, so we were arrested and put in a cell."

Man Kun kept looking at each other, and he also received the news that Song Qing was followed by a daughter, and she was not very old, and this time he felt that something was wrong.

"Then Xiaoyou, since you are from Tiantai and are going to Jiannan Dongchuan, can you tell this official what friends you have over there, and this official happened to be an official of that generation in his early years, maybe he can help you."

.“ Pander to... Help me, sir, I'm just a grass people, how can you help us? Isn't that a little too abnormal? Besides, I don't dare to wait. Song Qing looked panicked.

"Don't dare? Why don't you dare?" Carefully taking the other party's dark color in his eyes, Man Kun still did not dare to determine Song Qing's identity, and at the same time, with his rights, it was almost normal to want to kill a miner.

"I said Jia Xiaoyou, Zhejiang Tiantai is thousands of miles away from Jiannan Dongchuan, you need ten days and half a month to travel this way, can't you even pay ten taels of silver? Can this be right?"

Song Qing's heart sank, and he said in his heart that this person is really not simple, and it seems that he must take it seriously.

Looking at the frightened people around him, Song Qing knew that he couldn't show his feet, otherwise the matter would be over.
