When everyone saw this, their hearts were cold. The county lieutenant has always been a literati, and few people are as violent as Jiangnan, splitting the water and fire sticks with their hands, and their faces are light. The official who was put down, his face was a little distorted with pain, and his convulsions did not stop, and he must have used a special technique.

Several executioners subconsciously clenched the water and fire sticks and swung them down. In an instant, the screams came and went.

A few harder officials could grit their teeth and endure at first, but after three or five sticks, they could no longer hold on, snorted, and let out a breath of relief, and cried out in pain.

Jiang Nan looked at the ten punished officials, and each buttocks had been peeled open, which showed that the executioners' subordinates were not slippery, and each stick was full of strength.

The afterglow swept across Zhang Si's cheeks, and every time a muffled snort came, the corners of his mouth were grinning. Seeing that he was scared like this, he had no intention of operating on him again.

After the execution, Jiang Nan looked around at everyone, "Today's official punishment is a big commandment, I hope you will do it yourself, if there is a next time, you will never be spared!" ”

The officials nodded their heads again and again, and there was no longer the arrogance just now.

Jiang Nan waved his hand, "Take it down to heal and arrange someone to stand on duty for them." ”

When Zhang Si heard this, he hurriedly clenched his fists and took his life. "Take a few of them down to heal their wounds, and then execute ten people to take their class!"

After speaking, Zhang Si hesitated, but still stubbornly said: "My lord! After Zhang Ning was punished by the adult, he fainted before the end of the stick punishment, ...... do you think of it? ”

Jiang Nan didn't talk nonsense, walked in front of the servant, connected his fingers, poked his meridian acupoints, and finally, another palm was imprinted on his chest.

The servant's brow, which was still tightly locked in his coma, gradually opened, and his painful expression eased.

Although Zhang Si is not good at martial arts, he also knows that Jiang Nan should have come into contact with the prohibition on Zhang Ning's body, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Lord Xie!" ”

Jiang Nan waved his hand casually, turned around and walked to the three-foot legal table in the warm pavilion and sat down, helping the case and looking at everyone in the hall.

Zhang Si tilted his head to signal, and the officials quickly lined up on both sides of the lobby, and they quickly ran to the warm pavilion to stand still, looking at the south of the Yangtze River.

Jiang Nan coughed lightly, "From now on, the drums will sound for ten breaths, and all the station officials must be in place."

If the official is not in the prefectural office, he must truthfully register the name, address, and other information of the person who beat the drum and voiced the grievance, so that he can come to the Japanese government for inquiries.

If there is another refusal to be promoted on the grounds of failure to pay personnel, it will be severely punished.

Zhang Si, no matter which official is at fault of the soap class, this official is asking for you! ”

Zhang Si was quite helpless about the punishment that Jiang Nan said, but he couldn't refute it, so he could only accept the order in a deep voice.

Jiang Nan: "In order to avoid improper conviction, this official intends to familiarize himself with the laws and regulations, and if someone beats the drum, he will deal with it in a few days according to what Fang Cai said." ”

Zhang Si clenched his fists and said, "Obey your lord's orders!" ”

Jiang Nan saw that Wei had been established, the rules had been set, and the case could not be decided for the time being, and there was no point in staying here, so he got up and walked towards the outside of the ya.

Everyone didn't know why, and no one dared to ask, so they could only follow him step by step.

Wufu gently pulled the sleeves of Jiangnan and tilted his head to signal.

Jiang Nan turned around, saw the appearance of the officials, and thought about the reason, secretly laughed in his heart, and waved his hand, "This official has something to go out, you stay on duty, you don't have to send it far!" With that, he turned around and left.

Seeing that Master Jiang was really gone, everyone looked at each other, and they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and there was only one thought in their hearts - I was afraid that the future would not be easy.

……

Out of the county office, Jiang Nan and Wufu went straight to Ding Shengyuan, and Wu Liu, Wang San and others were already waiting there.

"Wu Liu! Have you found a craftsman? Jiang Nan said straight to the point as soon as they met.

Wu Liu was stunned, and reacted for a moment, "It's been found, there are more than a dozen people!" ”

Jiangnan: "Good! Command the craftsmen to be gathered and brought to Liuquan Lake! ”

Wu Liu tilted his head to signal, and a man standing next to him nodded in response and led a few people away.

"Let's go! Let's go and choose a place first, and some things will be talked about along the way. After Jiang Nan finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the door.

Wu Liu and Wang San were stunned, and hurriedly got up and chased after them.

"Childe, what do you command?" Wang San hurried a few steps, walked to Jiang Nan's side, and asked softly.

Jiang Nan glanced at him suspiciously, but did not say anything.

Wang San hurriedly explained: "My name is Wang San, you can call me the third child." Like the sixth child, he begged on the street, and the son enjoyed food, and now he is also doing things in Dingshengyuan. ”

Hearing what he said, Jiang Nan suddenly remembered that when Ding Shengyuan opened, the sixth child said that he had some impressions, and nodded, "Liu Yuanwai was destroyed, have you heard of it?" ”

Wang San did not hesitate, and immediately replied: "I have heard of it, it has been a few days. ”

The news is really well-informed! Jiang Nan raised his eyebrows, "Third child, tell me in detail!" ”

Wang San saw that Jiangnan was not polite, obviously did not treat himself as an outsider, and his expression perked, "Liu Yuanwai's name is Liu Wen, his family is well-off, the fields are quite extensive, the industry is mainly rice shops, and there are more than a dozen in the city.

The family married a three-room aunt, gave birth to four sons, more than 50 people, maids, housekeepers, and nurses, with a total of 67 people in the whole house.

Ten days ago, when the sky was about to darken, a group of black-clothed masked people rushed into Liu's mansion, smashed and looted, and cut down anyone they could. The gold, silver and jewels were looted, and the whole house was wiped out.

Legend has it that on the day of the incident, a woodcutter went to Liu's mansion to deliver firewood, and happened to be bumped into by Yang Zhutou, who rushed to the county government after hearing the news, and escorted him back to the county office. ”

Speaking of this, Wang San sneered, "The woodcutter often goes to the city to sell firewood, and many people know it, but how can Yang Zhutou not know it, and he has the intention of planting and blaming the blame!" ”

Jiang Nan frowned, "So, Yang Fuping plans to treat that woodcutter as a murderer?" ”

Wu Liu saw that the two of them were engaged in chatting, and he also quickly chased after him, and interjected when he heard the voice, "Sixty-seven people were killed, clean and neat, they were all killed with one knife, killing people and seizing money, and they were quick to solve the problem, which was definitely not done by ordinary people."

Presumably, Yang Zhutou also knows the trick, it is not easy to find out the truth, and it is even more difficult to arrest the real culprit.

Find someone to fill the top, not to mention easy, maybe you can mix some rewards, but his abacus is not bad! ”

Jiang Nan's face sank, and his subordinates acted like this, and his face was dull, "This Yang Fuping, it seems that I have to kick him out of the county office!" ”

Wang San shook his head, but he didn't agree with Jiang Nan's words, "Although it is inappropriate for Yang Zhutou to do this, it is the case everywhere. What's more, his ability is not bad, he has solved many cases, and I heard that he is also very good at martial arts. If Childe takes the position of county lieutenant, he will also be a big help to Childe. ”

Wufu has been following behind, listening intently, seeing that a few people are chatting hotly, he couldn't help but interject, "Childe, what the third child said makes sense!" Yang Fuping has outstanding ability, as long as you control it properly, it will be a big help, as for the previous merits, don't pay attention to it! ”

Jiang Nan was stunned when he heard this, yes! The environment dictates that he should not care too much about his past experience, as long as he can exert influence in the future and correct his behavior. When the water is clear, there are no fish, and some things are better to turn a blind eye!

Thinking of this, Jiang Nan said, "Hmm! It's me who cares too much! - That's right, the third child! Now that you know about Liu Yuanwai's murder case, do you know who did it? ”

Wang San sneered, "Childe, you think too highly of me, if you want to inquire about some news, our group of people may be okay, but the reason for the incident will not be understood in detail!" ”

Jiang Nan frowned, he didn't know if he wanted to find out the Year of the Monkey Ma Yue by himself, the group of people in the fast class were not familiar with it, and they didn't know if they would deceive themselves, but in comparison, Wang San and the others were more trustworthy.

Thinking of this, Jiang Nan said softly: "Sixth! Third! Release your brothers out and help me gather the details of Liu Yuanwai's killing, the more detailed the better! Although the county government has a limit on the number of servants, it does not have a limit on white servants. I classify all of you as white servants, and the monthly salary is not much, but it is better than nothing. I wonder what you think? ”

When Wu Liu and Wang San heard this, they were all ecstatic. Wu Liu even leaned closer and said with a sneer: "Childe, is this true?" ”

Jiang Nan turned his head and looked directly, "When have I ever spoken without counting?" ”

Hearing this, Wang San stopped, turned around and wanted to go back, "Childe, I'll go to Ding Shengyuan immediately to inform the brothers, and let them go out to find out the news now!" ”

Jiang Nan hurriedly raised his hand to stop, "Don't worry!" Let's go back and talk about it, let's go to the site first, and the matter of building a house is important! You all go and have a look, and you know it in your hearts, and when the time comes, I want you to give your opinions, and leave some people to supervise the site after the construction starts, and I won't stay here all the time. ”

Wu Liuleng was stunned and sneered: "Childe, you are joking, what advice can we make, it is okay to help move stones and soil!" ”

Jiang Nan chuckled, "I'm even worse than you, and I don't know anything about it." The house is built for everyone to live in, and you can say whatever you want, so you don't have to be restrained! ”

Wu Liu: "Childe! When is it time for us all to move in? ”

Jiangnan: "Hmm! I do have the intention of doing so. Ding Shengyuan left a few people on duty at night to avoid fire and theft, and the rest could move in. Anyway, there is no one to take care of building a house outside the city, so why not build a bigger one! ”

A few people are talking one by one, but the feet are non-stop, and after a while, Liuquan Lake is close in front of you.

Jiang Nan followed the familiar road and came to the hut. Everything around is the same, but there are more cobwebs in the house, and no one will come after I leave.

Wu Liu looked around, and then glanced at Jiang Nan suspiciously, "Childe, what are we doing here?" ”

Jiang Nan looked at the thatched hut with a complicated expression, and sighed with emotion, "This is my home!" ”

Wang San also looked at Jiangnan in surprise, Jiang Gongzi, who was strong in martial arts and had extraordinary conversation, actually lived here, and he really responded to the sentence, "Heroes no matter where they come from".

Jiang Nan plans to build a house here, there is another reason, it was here when he woke up in the Liang Dynasty, if Du Mengying is still alive and wants to find herself, it is estimated that she will come here.

Of course, these can only be buried in the bottom of the heart, and cannot be explained to others.

Packing up his thoughts, Jiang Nan pointed around the thatched hut, "I plan to build the house here, you arrange for craftsmen to come over as soon as possible, what do you need, the money for the purchase of materials will be withdrawn from the restaurant, and three meals a day will be prepared and delivered to the restaurant in advance." ”

Wu Liu: "Craftsmen generally bring their own food, and the son doesn't need to prepare!" ”

Jiang Nan waved his hand, "It's okay!" Eat better every day, so that we have the strength to do things, and the progress is faster, and we can move here as soon as possible, so we don't have to be so frugal! ”

When Wu Liu and Wang San heard this, they nodded silently and said yes.
