"Lord Hui, no one cleans it, and I am responsible for this study alone." Xue Yangzheng clenched his fists and looked at the placement in the study, there were many important things in this study, he didn't worry about others cleaning at all, and if someone really cleaned it, it would definitely be found that he hid the secret compartment of the key, which was not what he wanted to see.

The county commander frowned, and in this way, the difficulty increased even more, and he continued to ask, "Have you ever opened this dark grid in front of others?"

"My lord, this is a joke, I am in business, and I know that wealth is not exposed, and outsiders don't understand this at all." Xue Yangzheng hurriedly replied.

The county commander was slightly embarrassed, he did ask a little unruly, and said with a deep sigh: "In this way, this official will extract some useful evidence, go back and investigate them one by one, and you wait for my news." ”

Xue Yangzheng opened his mouth to say something, but the county order had already left the door of the study, and Xue Zhilan hurriedly asked, "Father, what happened?" ”

Xue Yangzheng glanced at his daughter, sighed, hurriedly turned his head to Xue Zhilan and said, "I'll tell you later." ”

After saying these words, Xue Yangzheng hurriedly followed the Deng County Order, who had already gone out, and ran a few steps at a staggering pace before catching up with the county order in front, from the moment he finished speaking, the uneasiness in Xue Yangzheng's heart became stronger and stronger, as if if Xue Yangzheng was let go like this this time, the case would be over.

"What's wrong? Anything else? Deng Xianling looked back at Xue Yangzheng, his heart jumped, and he said as usual.

"County order, I just want to ask when the result of my theft case will come out." While speaking, Xue Yangzheng took out a dark blue sachet, which was filled slowly, and the weight was not light at first glance, Xue Yangzheng stuffed it into the county order without blinking, and his smile was a little flattering.

The county order took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, and swept the sachet in his hand, and the sudden silver taels made him smile, but then he wanted to return his hand to Xue Yangzheng, after all, Xue Yangzheng had been in business for so many years, and he was neither treacherous nor business, where did he not understand the little thing in the eyes of the county order, so he hurriedly pushed the silver two to him, and said in a low voice: "My lord, just accept it, it took some effort to come over today, such a matter of caring for the people, this thing is just a small respect, adults should accept it." ”

The county commander's smile deepened, obviously very satisfied with Xue Yangzheng's words, the two pushed back and forth a few times, and the county commander still accepted Xue Yangzheng's silver taels and put them in his arms.

Seeing that the county order accepted the money, Xue Yangzheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Since this is the case, the adults must not be familiar with the mansion, so let Brother Xue and I lead the way." ”

Although when he was young, he had a relationship with the county order, and after that, he was a businessman, so he naturally had to deal with the government, but over the years, Xue Yangzheng has always put his position very clearly, and he has not overstepped the rules, so even if there is such a big thing as theft, he still directly beats the drum and complains, of course, there is another reason, this loss of silver, he does not want to calm the matter, so he chooses to beat the drum to voice grievances, and he also knows that the theft has been settled over the years.

"Okay." The county magistrate dared to accept this money naturally for his own reasons, and there was no reason to refuse this small request.

Xue Yangzheng walked with the county order, and followed the official messenger who came, and walked for a while, before Xue Yangzheng cautiously asked the county order beside him: "How likely do you think my theft case is solved?" ”

The county commander laughed, the corners of his mouth were always curved, and he said in Xue Yangzheng's puzzled eyes: "This official naturally has to do his best, after all, this 100,000 silver taels is not a small amount." ”

…… Love to nibble on books

The corners of Xue Yangzheng's mouth twitched slightly, why didn't he know that this was not a small number? One-third of a year's income is not a small loss.

"And how long is that?" Xue Yangzheng knocked left and right in the hall, just wanting to know the situation of his case.

"We will do our best to do it, after all, it will take some time to investigate these suspects." The county order played Tai Chi, but he didn't give him the exact time.

Xue Yangzheng knew in his heart that the county commander did not dare to give a certain time, and the hope was very small, although he already knew such a possibility in his heart as early as the time of the theft, but when the matter really came, he still felt a little afraid to accept it.

Seeing that Xue Yang's gate was in front of him, the county commander was relieved in his heart, and turned his head sideways to Xue Yangzheng who was hanging his head and said: "However, Brother Xue, you know that there have been many cases of theft over the years, but the chance of finding it is getting smaller and smaller, and the official still says the same thing, 100,000 taels of silver is not a small amount, and the official will try his best to help find it." ”

"Then thank you first." Xue Yangzheng said this a little weakly, and his smile only reluctantly pulled the corners of his mouth, and he didn't look so depressed.

"It's okay, even so, then the official will retire first, Brother Xue is in the mansion and waiting for my good news." The county commander also clenched his fists, and looked at Xue Yangzheng with a slight distress in his eyes, not because he felt sorry for Xue Yangzheng, but because he felt sorry for the silver.

However, Xue Yangzheng did not see these emotions, and watched the county order leave, and then returned to the mansion.

As soon as she entered the gate, Xue Zhilan greeted her and asked with concern, "Father, what happened." ”

"Zhilan, the DPRK has just settled the payment of 300,000 yuan, and now there are only 200,000 taels left." Xue Yangzheng shook his head, lowered his head and sighed.

"You mean we were stolen 100,000 taels of silver?" Xue Zhilan covered her mouth in disbelief and stumbled when she spoke.

Xue Yangzheng nodded, he didn't want to tell his daughter, but now that it has become like this, it doesn't make sense to hide it, so he told it truthfully.

"This ...... How could this happen? Xue Zhilan was also a little incredulous, there had never been an accident with the payment in previous years, how could she have expected that there would be such a thing now.

The important thing is that the payment is used for the training of horses in the next year, and the quality of the horses also determines whether the court will cooperate with them next year, which is crucial, and each item is indispensable.

"It should be a thief who has a bad heart and takes our money for the goods, so it's such a thing." Xue Yangzheng didn't know what things were like, so he could only find a reason to say.

"Father has a suspicion." Xue Zhilan continued to ask.

Xue Yangzheng shook his head, if he had a suspicion, he would not look for the government at all, but solve it himself.
