Chapter 256: Ten Thousand Years County Order
At dinnertime, Li Tao and Dong Fei chatted while eating: "So, you have waived all the land rents of those tenant farmers?" ”
"I guess the little master doesn't care about these rents, but wants to use Qixingzhuang as our long-term station. To do this, I couldn't do without the support of those tenant farmers, so I waived all their land rents and made them grateful to Qixingzhuang. I made this decision without telling the little master in advance, hoping that the little master will forgive the sins! ”
Li Tao smiled at Pei Yue and said, "It seems that Uncle Dong is none other than your Uncle Yue, and you really got what you said!" ”
Dong Fei looked at Li Tao inexplicably.
Li Tao said gratefully: "Uncle Dong, you think farther than me, I will rest assured that Qixingzhuang will be handed over to you." ”
"Thank you, little master!"
"Uncle Dong, you repair another secret place and pick up your old business!"
Dong Fei's eyes lit up: "Little master, what do you mean ......?"
"Before, we were in a position where we didn't dare to make a lot of ancient wines. It's different now, this Seven Star Village is not only a secret base for us, but also your Uncle Dong's secret wine shop! ”
"Little master, I understand, I'll start working on this matter tomorrow!"
Li Tao glanced at Li Bai, who was depressed on the side, and said with a smile: "I said Li Bai, if you die practicing sword style all day long, you will never become everyone's, real martial arts are not achieved by practice, but by enlightenment!" ”
Li Bai was confused: "Enlightened? ”
"It's like writing poetry, you want to write poetry, kung fu is outside poetry, and the same is true for this martial arts!"
Li Bai lowered his head and pondered.
Right now. Liu Da walked into the house and whispered a few words to Dong Fei.
Dong Fei's brows furrowed when he heard this.
"What's wrong?"
"Little master, there has been a murder in the Seven Star Village!"
"Homicide?" Li Tao's face also became solemn.
……
"Little host. This is Liu Youqiu County of Wannian County! ”
Liu Youqiu is around forty years old, with a medium build, and a capable and shrewd appearance.
"Xiaguan has seen the King of Lantian, although Qixingzhuang is the private property of the King of Lantian, there is a murder, and it is the duty of the Xiaguan to come to the test, if there is any disturbance. I hope that the king of Lantian will forgive me! ”
Liu Youqiu had obviously heard of Li Tao's name and was quite polite to Li Tao.
"Liu County Order just let go of the investigation of the case, and I will never interfere in any way!" Li Tao expressed his attitude. He also asked: "I don't know what the specific circumstances of the case are, can Liu County Order inform me?" ”
Liu Youqiu nodded and said, "Of course you can ......"
……
There is a tenant farmer in Qixingzhuang surnamed Zhang Jide, and he has two daughters, the eldest daughter Zhang Chunxia is married. The second daughter, Zhang Chunhua, is twenty-eight years old. Outstanding talent and appearance, waiting for the word boudoir. Zhang Chunhua was engaged to her uncle's cousin at the behest of her parents when she was a child.
Yesterday was Zhang Jide's 50th birthday. The eldest son-in-law and eldest daughter rushed to pay tribute to Zhang Jide. On this day, the Zhang family was extremely happy, Zhang Chunxia did not chat with her sister Zhang Chunhua for a long time, and stayed together at night to talk about her longing.
Early this morning, at breakfast, I didn't see the two daughters of the Zhang family. Zhang Jide was very unhappy and asked the lady to call in person. Zhang saw that the door was half-hidden and half-open. When I looked out, the curtain was lifted by the wind. Hearing Zhang's exclamation, he fainted on the floor. Zhang Jide rushed over and saw his two daughters lying on their backs on the bed, but their heads were gone. The blood stained the quilt red, which made people shudder, and Zhang Jide was frightened and immediately reported to the official.
……
Li Tao nodded after hearing this: "I won't go back in the next few days, let's see how Liu County Ling solves the case!" ”
As soon as the sky turned white on the second day, Li Tao got up. He took a walk with Pei Yue and saw that there was a market not far from Qixingzhuang, so he walked towards the market.
A steamed bun shop has opened for business, Li Tao stopped in front of the steamed bun shop, and was thinking about whether to taste a few steamed buns, but saw a person come at this time, pointed to the old man who sold steamed buns, and lowered his voice and said: "What you did is what you know in your heart, not twenty yuan can be suppressed!" Twenty more is not too much. ”
The old man who sold steamed buns stood behind the stove, his hands trembling constantly: "Fifth brother, I also have a hard time arguing, this unclear thing makes me jump into the Yellow River and can't wash it away!" ”
At this time, the old man's wife came out of the house, and when she saw the fifth child, she was so frightened that she quickly took out a copper coin from the house and said to the fifth child: "Brother, there are still ten pieces of money here, and it is hard to get it together, you ...... Hold your hand high. My old couple will turn into cattle and horses in the next life to repay you......"
The old man and the old woman even knelt down and kowtowed to the fifth child and pleaded.
Lao Wu pulled his face and said fiercely: "It's not that simple, the government is offering a reward of 100 yuan for the heads of those two women." For the sake of your old couple's score, I can't go too far with twenty, right? Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”
Lao Wu said that he was going to arrest the old man and see the official.
At this time, he coughed lightly and asked Lao Wu: "This brother, what is the reason for arguing here early in the morning?" ”
Lao Wu turned around and glanced at Li Tao, and said disdainfully: "The dog bites the mouse, it's your fault!" ”
As soon as the words fell, he heard the fifth child fall to his knees with an "ouch". Obviously, Pei Yue saw that he was disrespectful to Li Tao and taught him a lesson.
"Take him down and hand him over to Liu County Order!" Li Tao gave an order, and then turned and left.
Li Tao sat in the hall of the Wannian County Ya and watched Liu Youqiu try the case coldly.
Liu Youqiu interrogated the prisoner very well, and let the old five confess truthfully after three clicks and two clicks.
It turned out that the night before yesterday, Lao Wu entered the casino with a few gamblers, but he lost ten yuan in two games. He lied about peeing, but he actually went out to steal. As soon as he entered an alley, he saw that there was a light in the back garden of Mr. Zhang, and slowly got closer to see that the two of them were digging a pit and burying a bag of things. He thought it was money, so he was so unhappy, after Zhang's husband and his wife buried the things, he stepped into the vegetable garden from the back door, dug the cover of the soil, reached out and touched it, and it was wet. When I looked at the moonlight, I was surprised, what kind of money was this, it was actually two bloody human heads wrapped in clothes.
Lao Wu thought about it, this is also a way to make money, so he dared to knock on the back door of Zhang's father-in-law's house and blackmail. Zhang's father-in-law and his wife were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they asked the fifth child not to make a noise about it, and they didn't know what was going on, and they came back in the morning with water, and they turned on the lights to find that the water in the tank was red, and they took a closer look, and saw that there was something in the tank, and they picked up a package, and opened it to find that it was two bloody heads. The old couple was immediately frightened and helpless, afraid that it would cause trouble, so they quietly buried their heads, not wanting to be discovered by the scoundrel. The fifth child threatened to ask Mr. Zhang and his wife for 20 copper coins.
When Liu Youqiu heard this, he immediately ordered the master to take two lieutenants to verify with Zhang's father-in-law, and monitor the two of them and keep them strictly confidential. (To be continued......)
