Chapter 30 Seeing the Wind Makes the Rudder

In fact, Xu Enzeng's words were said by Master Hongyi in later generations. The pen and the fun and the pavilion www.biquge.info may be due to the slight messiness of time and space caused by Wu Song's travel, but this sentence is now coming out of the mouth of Xu Enzeng, the county governor of Qinghe.

However, this sentence does have something to do with "Lao Tzu". Because, in "Lao Tzu", there is a saying that "stillness is better than movement, cold is better than heat, and purity is the right thing in the world", which is actually very similar to the meaning of this sentence.

Wu Song didn't like detectives in his previous life, but that doesn't mean he's not smart enough. Although he couldn't immediately and accurately remember the source of Xu Enzeng's words, Wu Song could certainly understand the meaning of this sentence.

Straight lady thief, why didn't I think of this earlier, and I still need to be reminded by the county lord?

Xu Enzeng was instructing him on how to solve Hu Qin's case.

Wu Song immediately clasped his fists and saluted Xu Enzeng, and said, "Thank you for your advice, Wu Song remembered and knew what to do!" ”

Xu Enzeng nodded and said, "Okay!" Feel free to be your agent, I believe you can do a good job! ”

Wu Song turned around, reflecting on what Xu Enzeng had said, and knew that he was right.

In the case of Hu Qin, the incident happened suddenly, and after the person who hid in the secret shot Hu Qin escaped, no reliable clues have been found at all. Continuing to investigate, it is difficult to make a breakthrough for a while.

If it is said that the escaped murderer hid at this time in order to avoid the limelight, then he was in a state of "quiet", and Wu Song and the fast catchers who were eager to investigate everywhere in the hope of finding him belonged to "moving". The murderer braked quietly, and Wu Song fell into passivity.

On the contrary, if Wu Song can deal with it calmly and make the investigation and handling of the case appear quiet, then the murderer will feel that the limelight has passed and may come out again.

After all, whether it was to assassinate the magistrate or steal things from the magistrate's mansion, Hu Qin obviously failed to complete the task, so if the murderer hiding in the shadows and releasing the knife was really Hu Qin's accomplice, he would definitely make some moves.

As long as he comes out to move, he may show new feet. At that time, Wu Song was able to use static braking to find clues.

Therefore, Xu Enzeng's words are not only to express trust and encouragement to Wu Song, but also to remind him not to be impatient, think calmly, think in the long run, and look for opportunities and methods that can expose more clues to the murderer.

Thinking about this, coming out of the yamen lobby, Wu Song did not immediately return to the fast catching class. He has been busy and nervous about handling cases in the past few days, in fact, now he should go outside for a walk, relax, calm and calm.

Just like in previous lives, sometimes when you encounter any troubles or troubles, calm down and go to the street alone to take a walk, and maybe you suddenly find a solution to the problem.

Wu Song calmly walked out of the yamen and came to the street. He wanted to go to Xiahe Street to see if his brother Wu Dalang was selling cooking cakes there again.

Even, he wanted to find out where Pan Jinlian had been rented for the time being after being taken hostage to the city by Zhang Dahu's second housekeeper, and whether she had been sent to Zhang's mansion.

Wu Song did not have the conditions to rescue her out of Zhang's Mansion immediately. After all, Zhang Fucai's wealth is powerful, and Qinghe is a tyrant, and he is not an agent who has just come to Qinghe County and is also responsible for handling Hu Qin's case, and he can be immediately convinced.

What's more, Tailor Pan is seriously ill and has already owed a huge amount of debt for treatment, Wu Song is still shy at this time, and the little money he has accumulated by his brother Wu Dalang selling cooking cakes is far from enough to repay Pan Jinlian's debts.

Therefore, in order to give Pan Jinlian money to treat her father's illness, it seems that she can only live in Zhang Dahu's house temporarily, so that Zhang Dahu can forgive her family's debts and be willing to pay for the treatment of Pan Tailor. This is obviously a form of helplessness.

So, now that Wu Song has entered the yamen as the acting head and has been appreciated by the magistrate, can he report to the magistrate that Zhang Dahu forcibly took away Pan Jinlian with debts, which is also a violation of the law?

However, not to mention that the magistrate is very busy at this time, Wu Song is now also anxious to investigate the Hu Qin case, and it is not appropriate to make such extraneous branches, so as not to affect such a major matter as catching the gangsters who committed the murder in the Yamen.

Wu Song pondered this matter as he walked. Suddenly, the golden cake that Hu Qin stole from the county magistrate's mansion popped up in his mind, and an idea suddenly appeared in his heart: Can you ask the magistrate Xu Enzeng to borrow money to help Pan Jinlian pay off her debts and treat her father's illness, so that she can be rescued from Zhang's mansion as soon as possible?

If she could have been rescued earlier, there would have been no incident at all where she was forced to marry her brother Wu Dalang, and naturally, the fate of her and Wu Dalang, and even Wu Song's fate, would have fundamentally changed!

"Erlang, it turns out that you are here, why do you have time to go out of the yamen and walk on the street today? Could it be that the case was solved? Wu Song was thinking about Pan Jinlian, when Wu Dalang suddenly appeared in front of Wu Song and asked in surprise, joy and confusion.

Wu Song looked up and saw his brother, and he was also very happy, and said, "Brother, the case has not been solved, I will come out to relax." Didn't you sell cooking bread today? ”

Wu Dalang said: "I originally went out to sell cooking cakes in the morning, but I encountered something that was difficult for me to do, so I had to come to you, I didn't expect to meet you here!" ”

When Wu Song heard that his brother had encountered a "difficult thing", he thought that he was being bullied again, and said hurriedly: "Brother, what is the difficult thing to do?" Tell me! ”

Wu Dalang shook his ugly head, looked left and right, as if he was afraid of being heard or seen by others, pulled Wu Song's sleeve, and whispered: "Erlang, you and I will go home and talk!" ”

Wu Song was full of hesitation, so he had to follow Wu Dalang back to his rented home. After the brothers entered the door, Wu Dalang immediately closed the door nervously, then lowered his head and got under the bed, dragged out a burden, and struggled to move it to the table, and said to Wu Song: "Erlang, take a look at what is in here?" ”

Wu Song stepped forward to untie the burden, opened it and looked at it, and was immediately surprised.

In that baggage, there are ten brilliant new ingots of silver!

Wu Song had never seen so much silver in such good condition. These ten ingots of silver, to say the least, are as many as one hundred taels!

At that time, five taels of silver was a year's salary for a well-appointed official in the yamen, which could be used to save an ordinary family to maintain a year's livelihood.

One hundred taels of silver of such a good color, absolutely, absolutely, is a huge amount of money!

In the face of so much silver, Wu Dalang, who has been tired and struggling in poverty all his life, did not have much joy on his face, and some were just nervous.

Wu Song asked, "Brother, tell me what's going on?" ”
