212 The thief is busy catching thieves

The reason why Shi Qian dared to guarantee the ticket and solved the case within three days was because he understood the Tao in the thief. What's more, he has an apprentice, nicknamed - Sleeve Mei, who is the thief head of West Street, and can learn the inside story through him. This time, he became the capital prisoner in charge of catching thieves, so I should make good use of him.

Shi Qian sneaked into the bedroom of Sleeve Mei, this guy was snoring and sleeping soundly. He shaved the hair on her legs a few times with a short knife, then placed the back of the knife on her neck.

Mei felt a cold neck, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a knife on her neck, and she was so frightened that she let out a sullen fart. When I saw that it was a change of time, I was happy again, and I let out a loud fart, which was a welcome.

"Master, is that you?!" Roll up her sleeves and Mei Xi said.

"It's not me, your head has already moved!" Shi Qian laughed, "Look at your little bit of talent, why haven't you grown yet?" ”

"Master, no matter how hard I work for ten lifetimes, I can't catch up with your old man!"

"Don't call me master, call me the time eunuch."

"Master, you have been promoted?!"

"The Daimyo's Mansion is in charge of the capital of thieves."

"Thank God, this time your disciples and grandchildren have come to a good day."

"Don't be so happy so early, you tell me about the 'thief' of the Daimyo's Mansion."

Mei poured tea for Shi Qian, sat down, and talked slowly-

The "thief forces" of the Daimyo Mansion are divided into five parts. I, the sleeve plum, can only act on West Street, which is in the worst area, and there are relatively many poor people, so they can only steal petty. There are several large families, all of which have hired powerful bodyguards, and if they don't do much, they will be caught. Under normal circumstances, it is not sent to the government, but it is handled by itself, either chopping hands or feet, which is miserable.

East Street is the sphere of influence of the "Saisun Monkey". This area is relatively fat, and there are more shops, so it is easy to get by. Saisun Monkey's brothers never cost money to wear clothes. The merchants caught the thief and sent it to the government. said that it was the government, and it was sent to Quanqin at that time, and he alone had the final say on how to deal with it.

South Street is also good, there are many medical halls and restaurants here, which are controlled by "not empty". His brothers are all quite fat, and if they have a disease, they don't have to spend money to treat it; You don't have to spend money to buy a meal.

North Street is also quite fat, and many officials who have returned to their hometowns live here. This place is controlled by the "Bi De Hand", and their brothers can get it once, it will be enough to spend a few months. These retired officials are not less greedy in office, even if they are stolen, they dare not tell the whole truth. In the end, it is still up to the whole piano to deal with it to see how much is appropriate.

The most powerful is the middle street, the best top seven or eight green buildings, the flower girl's outfit is worth 1,800 taels of silver. The gold and silver shops are also concentrated here, and it is really fat! This place is under the control of the "star picker", and his brothers and sisters eat and drink spicy food every day. - Star pickers have said many times that he will be a county master, but he will not do it.

After listening to this, Shi Qian said: "Roll up your sleeves, you pass on a word: let the star pickers, Bi Deshou, not go empty, Saisun Monkey, of course, including you, tonight in Deyue Tower-'Hand Pick Stars' private room, I will invite them to dinner." ”

Mei shook her head and said, "I'm afraid they won't come!" They only listen to the whole qin, and no one listens to what others say! ”

Shi Qian "pounced" and stabbed the knife on the table, and said: "Now, I, Shi Qian, am the capital prisoner in charge of the thieves, so if I don't come, let him touch a few heads on his head." Take my sign and please them. ”

Shi Qian took out a golden sign from his waist, which was engraved with seven words: Drum on the flea Shi Qian Capital Prison.

"With this, they won't not go." Rolled up her sleeves and went to run errands with a smile.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the star pickers, Bi Cheng, not empty, Saisun Monkey and sleeve plum are all here. Shi Qian and Wang Ying accompanied them to eat and drink. It turned out that these people received the invitation and immediately went to Quanqin to discuss countermeasures. Quan Qin told them that they should go and see what kind of medicine was sold in the Shiqian gourd.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Shi Qian said politely: "Everyone, whether I can be the supervisor of the thieves depends on your support!" In the past, I was a brother with you, and I will still be a brother in the future. Right now, in one day, there are five cases, and I ask the brothers to reveal some news. Also hand over a little, I'm good at handing it over. ”

The Star Picker was the first thief here, and everyone else looked at him.

The star picker said: "The case in Zhongjie was done by my subordinates, and a third can be sent back." ”

The other thieves admitted it when they saw the star picker for the first time, and they all did. I would also like to send back a third.

Shi Qian smiled and said, "The other third is easy to do." Roll up your sleeves, you can't give a third of the horse you steal, a horse leg and a horse ear, right? ”

Hearing Shi Qian say this, the other four thieves laughed.

Rolling up her sleeves, Mei blushed and said, "I handed over the saddle, it is worth more than a horse!" ”

Shi Qian also said: "Your sphere of influence will not move for the time being, and I will observe it for half a year." Six months later, the sphere of influence was redrawn in terms of the size of the contribution. ”

When the star picker heard this, he was very happy. Mei was a little unhappy, feeling that she still had to live on West Street, and it was difficult for the brothers to get motivated. But in front of outsiders, it's hard to say anything.

When several people returned home, they found a letter in their arms, and they didn't know when they put it inside. When opened, the gist of the letter is the same:

At the beginning of tomorrow, I invite the star picker and all the disciples to go to the gluttonous building for a banquet. -- Time Shifts.

The content of the other people's letters is almost the same, but the time is staggered. The star pickers are happier than the other, and they feel that the time change is much more interesting than the whole qin. This person is really exquisite, not only invites himself to dinner, but even invites his apprentices, really gives face, goes, and everyone who can go.

The star picker brought 8 disciples, Bi Deshou, Bu Xing, Saisun Monkey and Sleeve Mei each led 17 disciples, and there were just 81 people together. They were given to different private rooms. Good wine, good meat, good food and drink, Shi Qian walked everywhere, toasted a circle of wine, and saw that all the main thieves had arrived, and then came out. Dropped a cup from a window on the second floor.

Wang Ying rushed up with the military academy, and Lin Siniang and Hu Jiaoniang came up with the women's army to help. All 81 thieves, large and small, were arrested.

The next day, Hu Sanniang ordered that those who were punished would be punished, beaten, and killed. The five main culprits, all beheaded.

Five were taken to the execution ground. Star pickers, Bi Deshou, Don't go empty, Saisun Monkey and Sleeve Mei were tied up with five flowers and sat in the prison car. The common people cheered and cheered, which was more lively than the New Year.

The five of them were guillotined one by one, the ghost-headed big knife was raised and fell, and their heads rolled out like watermelons. The sleeves of the plum face are like ashes, and the time when he scolds him vigorously in his heart is not good to die. I wanted to open my mouth to scold, but my mouth was blocked. The heads of the four flew out of the cavity, and Mei closed her eyes and waited for death. After a while, when I opened my eyes, all the people retreated. The executioner was also gone, and Shi Qian looked at him with a smile.

"Master, you're scared me to death!" Rolled up her sleeves and cried.

"Originally, you were going to be beheaded. It was I who begged the prefect of Hu, because you made meritorious service to save you from death, are you willing to do it under me? Shi Qian asked with a smile.

"Yes! Willing! ”

Quan Qin also came to see the beheading, he only saw half of it and ran away, afraid that he would be arrested next to this umbrella.

Since killing the four thieves, the little thieves of the Daimyo Mansion have disappeared. For a while, it was really a night when the door was never closed, and the road was not left behind.
