Chapter Forty-Seven: Striking the West

After hearing this, the master of the law enforcement hall quickly nodded, called an assistant next to him, and then whispered a few words, and the assistant ran quickly.

"I've already asked someone to write the document here, and I'll go to the City Lord's Mansion to sign it and stamp it later, okay?" The head of the law enforcement hall said.

Mo Yu nodded: "Jiang Liang is there, but I'm afraid he won't dare to sign, so I'll go back to the City Lord's Mansion first, and then I'll go to the Elder's Mansion, and you can deliver that document as soon as possible."

Then under the arrangement of the law enforcement hall master, a carriage appeared at the gate, in order to allow Mo Yu to arrive as soon as possible, so this carriage was accompanied around the clock.

Mo Yu didn't feel too bumpy in the carriage, he hadn't been in a carriage for a long time in this city, first of all, not a lot of things were particularly anxious, and secondly, the distance was quite close, just a few steps away.

But today the situation is really urgent, so Mo Yu sat in the carriage and then began to think about this problem.

When he arrived at the city, Mo Yu didn't go up, and shouted towards the City Lord's Mansion, and then Jiang Liang quickly rushed out.

Mo Yu said loudly below: "After a while, the person who enforces the law of the hall master may send a document, just sign and seal it directly, and let him take it on the spot."

Jiang Liang was the best at looking at the eyes, and when he saw that Mo Yu was so anxious, he said to Mo Yu: "I know the city lord, you have to go and get busy in advance, I'll take care of it here."

Then Mo Yu got into the carriage again, and the soldier at the front said, "Hurry up and go to the Elder's Mansion!"

It didn't take long for them to arrive at the Elder's Mansion, and then Mo Yu asked him to wait at the door, and he was so excited that the guards at the door gave an announcement.

On the carriage, Mo Yu thought about the terrain, the road in the south is quite easy to walk, but to the north, there are many strange-shaped roads, and you need to detour a long way.

Maybe it's still too late, mainly if the carrier pigeon is fast enough, his news is likely to be able to reach the cities in the north, as for whether it can be found or not, it actually depends on luck.

After all, people can't get over it only by relying on some brief introductions on the letter, and it is estimated that they can't make a general understanding, and sometimes even if they meet, they may not be able to identify.

They must have to pass through some towns and cities for supplies, and Mo Yu seriously suspected that there would probably be more carriages than just these carriages, and these carriages were the ones that would allow them to live outside.

And Mo Yu actually doubts the most is that he wonders if they have a flood beast!

If you force your way with this creature, it's not that slow.

Just when Mo Yu was thinking about something, the soldiers had already come over and asked Mo Yu to hurry in.

Not only was this elder inside, but the two deputy elders were also inside, and they had already prepared tea for Mo Yu to sit down.

Mo Yu saw that there were actually no outsiders, and even a person who served tea and water had already gone out, so he sorted out everything and told the three elders to listen.

The three elders had solemn faces, and they also knew that this matter was definitely not simple, and Mo Yu and the elders had already suspected a point, whether this was the work of some people from the Yuan clan.

If this is the case, then something must be a big deal, and such a big thing is a big thing that you can't afford.

Then Elder Duan asked Mo Yu what he thought, and Mo Yu only said that he had sent a message to the cities in the north, that is, the two cities near the north.

did not send troops to chase, because at this time, sending troops to chase is tantamount to sending death, if there is less, it will definitely not work, and if there is more, Mo Yu will not have so much power.

It is a felony to transfer troops without permission, in fact, the elders are no exception, and the dispatch of more than 500 such soldiers already needs to be reported to the district.

In particular, this kind of cross-city dispatch is even more impermissible, although the number of soldiers in each city is not particularly small, and if it is an emergency dispatch, it is not a problem to transfer one two or three thousand, and even if you don't care about some public security conditions.

5,000 cities can also come out, almost no problem.

In normal times, about 1,000 is enough, but in this special case, if you send one or two hundred soldiers over, it is almost a situation of sending them to death.

The enemy is in the dark, they are in the light, not to mention that those people are definitely not only these people who see them, the most important thing is that the martial arts are not low, and there is absolutely no doubt that they have long-range weapons.

And it will definitely be able to detect the situation of the soldiers first, and then be able to make an ambush.

Therefore, if one hundred and two hundred is passed, it is sent to death, and there are definitely no more than many people who can really come back, so if you really want to send troops to chase it, the soldiers cannot be lower than 300 to be able to cause a low casualty.

But this is definitely not within the scope of the city lord's dispatch, and the city lord's dispatch cannot even some of the former soldiers be privately dispatched, including the parade soldiers.

Then Elder Duan thought for a while: "Then let's send the letter first, it seems that I need to report the situation, I'll do it here, you go and continue to investigate this matter first, if there is any situation, you must report it in time."

After Mo Yu heard this, he then clasped his hands into fists: "Subordinates retire."

In this way, the pressure will be much less, after all, it will be much more comfortable to share the pressure with someone.

Then Mo Yu got into the carriage after coming out: "Go to the Law Enforcement Hall."

There are still places that need to be investigated here, and it is not finished, although he can say that he can no longer go, after all, this is only the work between his subordinate branches.

But this matter is very important, so Mo Yu still wants to really understand what happened in person.

After arriving at the Law Enforcement Hall, he came directly to the entrance of the main hall, and then asked the soldiers at the gate of the main hall where their hall master had gone.

The soldiers of the Law Enforcement Hall said that they went to the City Lord's Mansion to personally escort the documents.

Here, Mo Yu decided to wait for a while, not only was he tired and a little tired when he was running back and forth.

In fact, Mo Yu felt that this matter should have been able to be thought of from the beginning, but the temptation of this matter was too strong, tempting two people or even a group of people to a place where they wanted to tempt.

From the very beginning, there were all kinds of things that went wrong, and although I still don't really understand what kind of thing it is, I should be able to keep it from ten.

All the investigations showed that the wagons carrying the goods did not reach the village in the south at all, and even Mo Yu suspected that the woodcutter was part of their elaborate arrangement.

Now Mo Yu is even a little suspicious of the village chief, if it is said that the news will reach Mo Yu's ears with a 100% probability, there is actually a little element of luck, of course, the premise is that the village chief has no problems.

Because in the remote villages, especially the southernmost villages that belong to the jurisdiction of this city, they can reach the ears of the law enforcement hall masters through the soldiers in the afternoon.

Although there is the help of carrier pigeons, it is indeed worth making Mo Yu suspicious.

So Mo Yu was ready to check the village chief, of course, not immediately, and this did not fall within Mo Yu's scope of responsibility.

Mo Yu waited for about a stick of incense, and then the law enforcement hall master came back, and when he saw Mo Yu, he reported the situation just now: "City Lord, the letter has been sent, and the situation is the clearest, I asked them to also pay attention to the people who go into the city to buy a lot of things, especially one or two people or three or four people who buy a lot of food and drink."

Mo Yu nodded: "Well, okay, I know, let's go to the Lin family's cloth merchant next, by the way, you let your soldiers check on someone."

"Who?"

"Come here with your ears."

"The subordinates will arrange it immediately! Wait a minute, the city lord, and I'll be back soon. ”

It didn't take long for Mo Yu to come back again, and then the two of them got into the carriage together and went to the cloth merchant in the east of the city.

After arriving, as if someone knew that they were coming, the person who greeted the little master immediately appeared at the door, and then immediately welcomed the two of them in: "The city lord hall master is coming, the small one is far away, and I still look at Haihan, our rudder master here has been waiting for a long time, please go to the main hall to talk"!

In almost every city in the south, there are Lin family cloth merchants who do not exist, and this is also one of their rudders, of course, the ability of this rudder is not particularly small.

It can be regarded as almost monopolizing the sales of high-end fabrics in the entire city, just look at this magnificent building, of course, this building is not theirs.

All the buildings in the polar country are owned by the state, and the maintenance and construction also need to be handled by the state, and this house is just repaired by themselves.

Moreover, such a clause is signed for decades, and the money for these decades is paid in full, so there are some concessions.

That's why they dare to spend a lot of money to renovate this house, because they have guaranteed that this house will be almost their own for decades.

After entering, Mo Yu and the law enforcement hall master could feel the real magnificence, and there was an endless stream of people inside, most of them were some high-ranking officials and nobles who came to buy finished products or cloth.

However, it only passed through a short section of this scene, and then it was through a side door to the very top.

There is a person at the door of the top floor who has been greeting him, and this person is the helmsman of the rudder: "Hello city lord, good hall master, hurry up and please please inside!"

This person is about seventy years old, and although his clothes are not luxurious, he can still see the value of his clothes.

The hair is not particularly long, and the presence of a mature businessman can be seen, although there is no sense of humility when he bends over, and his body is not bloated, and the proportions are just right.

"Hello helmsman, Mo Yu came here to investigate some trivial matters, and he still needs to trouble the helmsman to give him a convenience."
