Chapter 397: Black-Hearted Silver
"I knew you would be in a hurry if you didn't ask. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info" Givin smiled and said, "Don't look at this heir, it's not as simple as you think. There is basically no money to catch fast, and if you want to survive, you have to use some means to earn money, and the summons is the most common and useful means! When I was on an errand in the county office, I saw a lot of such methods! ”
Zhang Bao'er seemed to understand a little, and he nodded and waited for Ji Wen's next words.
"The summons is also called the tick ticket, which means that the catcher will quickly hook people into the yamen for questioning. With this summons, the arrester will have the power to arrest people, and with the power, there will naturally be silver. For example, if the plaintiff files a lawsuit and the county orders the trial, the defendant will be summoned. The torture room opened a ticket and told the arrester to summon the defendant, and the arrester quickly took the ticket and ran to the defendant's house, where he could ask the defendant for money. Then I went to the plaintiff's house, and I helped you pass on that person, and you also gave me the money, and the money on both sides. ”
Zhang Bao'er suddenly realized: "Cheng Gui asked me to go on this mission, so that I could get money, and it can be regarded as a show of favor to me?" ”
"Of course?" Ji Wen said: "Cheng Gui is a head catcher, he has the final say on who to pass on, this summons is equivalent to giving silver to whom, and many catchers can't ask for it!" If he didn't show favor to you, why did he ask Guan Shiqi to take you to the heirs? ”
"No wonder Luo Lin doesn't want to go, he doesn't want to make this black money. It seems that your sentence just now, 'The legs are not on you, are the hands not on you' said to his heart, although he promised to go with him to pass on the people, but he will definitely not accept the money! ”
Ji Wen also praised: "To be honest, catching fast like Luo Lin is really rare, no matter which yamen it is!" ”
Zhang Bao'er nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and see it, naturally I won't take this money, otherwise even Luo Lin will look down on me!" ”
The dispute between Li Laohan and Li Siwa is actually very simple, Li Laohan borrowed 200 taels of silver from Li Siwa and also wrote an IOU. The two of them agreed that the interest rate was 3%, but it was not written on the IOU. When Li Laohan repaid the money, he only repaid the principal, and did not mention the interest at all. Of course, Li Siwa quit, and repeatedly urged Li Laohan to ask for it, but Li Laohan refused to admit it on the grounds that there was no interest written on the IOU. Where could Li Siwa swallow this breath, and in a fit of anger, she sued Li Laohan to the county office.
Zhang Baoer's hook with Guan Shiqi can be regarded as an eye-opener.
What kind of shoe money, errand money, food money, wine money, messed together, Guan Shiqi insisted on asking for twenty taels of silver from Li Siwa. When he arrived at Li Laohan, Guan Shiqi also extorted Li Laohan with twenty taels of silver by the same means.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Bao'er couldn't help but shake his head, and whispered to Ji Wen: "These two people have paid forty taels of silver for a little interest, it's really not worth it!" If I knew this, I might as well not fight this lawsuit! ”
Ji Wen nodded and said: "The common people know this principle, and no one wants to go to the Yamen to fight a lawsuit unless it is absolutely necessary!" It is estimated that Li Siwa was also very angry and wanted to take a bad breath, so he thought of such a strategy, and it is estimated that his intestines will be repentant! ”
"This Shiqi is really dark!" Zhang Bao'er glanced at Luo Lin, who was hiding far away, and said, "No wonder Luo Lin is reluctant to seduce people!" ”
Ji Wen was surprised and said: "It's not just Guan Shiqi, which yamen will do this, this is already an unwritten rule, it depends on who this summons falls into!" If you meet a good-hearted catcher, you may be less cheating, and if you meet a veteran like Guan Shiqi, you can only admit that you are unlucky! ”
"It seems that the right to catch heads is really not small, no wonder these catchers have to stammer with Cheng Gui, it turns out that there are still so many ways!"
Guan Shiqi is indeed very quick, he didn't use Zhang Bao'er to intervene at all, and he handled things properly by himself.
Guan Shiqi escorted Li Laohan and Li Siwa in front, and Zhang Baoer and others followed them to the city.
Ji Wen glanced at Li Laohan and Li Siwa, who were following Guan Shiqi with their heads downcast, and then looked up at the sky, with a knowing smile on their faces.
Zhang Bao'er looked at Ji Wen suspiciously: "Brother Ji, what are you laughing at, could it be that you remembered something?" ”
Ji Wen said with a mysterious expression: "If I am not wrong, Guan Shiqi will knock out a sum of silver from these two people!" ”
"What? Will you also knock silver? Zhang Baoer was taken aback: "What else can he do?" ”
Gwenn smiled: "Take a closer look, you'll see in a while!" ”
When they arrived at the county seat, they went directly to the county office, passing by the gate of a large mansion, Zhang Baoer saw a middle-aged man with fat head and big ears in a gorgeous costume, who happened to come out of the door surrounded by slaves.
When Guan Shiqi saw this person, his face changed, and he was about to speed up his steps to avoid him.
Who knew that the man was very sharp-eyed, and shouted loudly: "Guan Shiqi! Stop! ”
Guan Shiqi's feet stiffened, and he frowned, but immediately a smile appeared on his face, turned around and ran quickly to the man, nodded and said, "It turned out to be Master Gao, I don't know what to order?" ”
Master Gao snorted coldly and said, "Let me ask you, how is the case of the Shadowless Thief?" ”
"Back to Master Gao's words, I am stepping up the preparation!" Guan Shiqi said cautiously.
Master Gao listened to Guan Shiqi's words, and said with an angry face: "Hurry up, step up the editing, how long have you been stepping up the editing, but there is no news at all, it's just a rice bucket!" ”
"Master Gao's lesson is that the small one is indeed a rice bucket!" Guan Shiqi was trained by Master Gao to be like a grandson, but he was not angry at all, and still said with a smile on his face: "Hasn't Master Gao already issued a reward, there will be a brave man under the heavy reward, I believe that it will not be long before the thief will leak his whereabouts!" ”
"The bounty is my business, and it has nothing to do with you solving the case! You pass a message to Zheng Muye for me, if you don't hurry up and recover the stolen property, I won't be done with him! ”
Old Man Gao put down a sentence, turned around and got into the sedan chair and left with a snort.
Seeing that the sedan chair was far away, Guan Shiqi snorted, and scolded hatefully: "Dog fights people, what's the matter!" ”
"Catch quickly, who is this person, why is he so horizontal?" Zhang Baoer asked on the side.
Guan Shiqi smiled bitterly: "This person's name is Gao Wenfeng, and he is the richest man in Qucheng!" ”
"What's so terrible about a rich man?" Zhang Baoer was puzzled.
"Although this person is not an official, he can call the wind and rain in Qucheng, and even the Zheng County Order has to give him three points......"
It turned out that Jiangzhou Thorn Shi and Bei Jia have always been at odds, one of them is Queen Wei's person, and the other is Princess Taiping's person. Although Shi Gao Wenju, the governor of Jiangzhou, is only an auxiliary officer, he is under the assassin and the other driver, and the assassin and the other driver are intriguing and trying to win over Gao Wenju to increase their strength, in this case, Gao Wenju's status will naturally rise. Gao Wenju himself is also good at drilling camps, seeing people talking about people and talking nonsense, he is between the history of assassination and other driving, and he can win the trust of the two at the same time. Because of this, Gao Wenju is very popular in Jiangzhou, and his words are quite weighty.
