The dark lattice on the pillars is so cleverly designed that no matter how you look at it, you can't see the flaws in it. Chen Guanyu explained to Su Hao for a long time, and Su Hao didn't see any difference between this pillar and other pillars, the only doubt was that it appeared in a place where it shouldn't be, because there were two other pillars next to it, which really bear the weight of the roof, and this pillar, to be exact, was just a large safe disguised as a pillar.

Xia Shushen set up the place where the secret account books were hidden in the account room, which was also to facilitate reconciliation, otherwise, it would be easier to show the wind by holding the accounts back and forth in several rooms every day.

"Lao Chen, don't explain so much, just talk about how to open this secret grid." Su Hao listened to it for a long time, and finally said impatiently.

Chen Guanyu looked embarrassed, shook his head and said, "This...... The trail doesn't know either. ”

It turned out that Chen Guanyu was dressed as a Taoist priest these days, spying everywhere. He deceived Xia Shushen into trusting him, so he was fortunate to accidentally see the scene where Xia Shushen opened the dark grid on the pillar. As for where the mechanism that opened this secret grid was hidden, he had no way of knowing.

"Why don't you bring Xia Shushen up and ask again?" Chen Guanyu offered advice.

"This guy is still stubborn when he is dying, and it is useless to bring him here." Su Hao said.

"Su Shoubei, there is a way for his subordinates." Xiong Min said as he leaned to the side.

Su Hao said: "What is the way, say it and listen to it." ”

Xiong Min smiled and said: "This pillar is made of wood, and it is not a real pillar, can we just split it?" ”

"Uh......" Su Hao was speechless, in fact, this is really a good way, this kind of safe, isn't it just to prevent gentlemen and villains? He is also preconceived. I just want to find the trick to open the dark grid, and if I am willing to split the pillar, it will be obvious what the dark grid is.

Su Hao himself wore a high-manganese steel knife produced by Hao's workshop, which was the sharpest knife of this era. He drew his knife and struck it on the false pillar a few times, and when he heard one of the sounds different from the others, he decided that it was the location of the dark grid. He swung his knife at the false pillar and slashed it a few times, and the sawdust flew everywhere, revealing a huge dark grid.

"Haha. It didn't take much effort to get it. ”

Su Hao took out the dark compartment and took out a few large account books from it, as well as some other books, in addition to dozens of gold bricks and some jewelry, and the harvest was very rich.

"That's it. Withdraw. Su Hao asked Xiong Minyang to pack up all these things, and then gave the order to retreat.

Su Hao's actions can be described as fast, but what happened in Huguang Qianzhuang still alarmed the Xixian County Government. When Su Hao and the others walked out of Huguang Qianzhuang with Xia Shushen and Ren Zonghui, they saw Deng Rugui, the magistrate of the county, rushing over with a group of officials.

"Xiaguan Deng Rugui knocked to see Master Su." Deng Rugui came to Su Hao and made a big salute respectfully.

"You know me?" Su Hao asked in surprise. He could see from the color of his uniform that Deng Rugui should be the magistrate of Xi County, but he himself was wearing a military uniform on this trip. didn't wear an official uniform, Deng Rugui had no reason to be able to recognize him at once.

Deng Rugui smiled and said nothing, of course he would not say that Runing Mansion had urgently issued a notice with Su Hao's avatar, ordering all localities to be careful. Su Hao inadvertently. I've already enjoyed a statewide wanted treatment.

"Deng Zhixian rushed over so early, but what official business is there?" Su Hao saw that Deng Rugui didn't explain, so he didn't bother to ask, he was more concerned. How could Deng Rugui come so quickly, this time seems to be when the county government has just gone to work, right?

Deng Rugui said: "The lower officials have been informed. said that Bachelor Su arrived in Xi County, so he hurriedly got it to say goodbye to Bachelor Su. I don't know what Mr. Su has to do on this trip, and what are the ...... These people seem to be county merchants, why were they tied up and detained in Mr. Su's army? ”

"Oh, these may be merchants in your county, the reason why we arrested them is that they are suspected of participating in the attack on Luoshan Xinglong Gambling House, and the official wants to take them to Luoshan for questioning. The matter was in a hurry, and he did not report it to Deng Zhixian County, and asked for forgiveness. Su Hao replied lightly.

"How dare you, how dare you." Deng Rugui said, "It's just that Bachelor Su arrested people in the county without credentials, which seems to be a little inappropriate." Since Bachelor Su thinks that these people are guilty, why don't they hand it over to the county, wait for the county to ask the truth in the county hall, and then report to Bachelor Su, what does Bachelor Su think? ”

"This is a case involving the military, and it is probably not appropriate for you to try it locally." Su Hao said.

Deng Rugui was also determined to stop Su Hao, he said: "Master Su said that these people were suspected of attacking Luoshan Xinglong Gambling House, I don't know what evidence there is?" ”

"Is there any evidence that I need to tell you?" Xiong Min interjected on the side, with Su Hao's support, a magistrate is really not in his eyes.

Deng Rugui said: "This general, if you take away a few merchants from the county without evidence, the county is afraid that it will be difficult to explain to the people." Therefore, the county dares to ask you to hand over the criminals to the county, and the county will ensure that it will be dealt with impartially. ”

Regarding the obstruction of the magistrate, Su Hao had already discussed the plan with Li Zhen. He knew that it was completely impossible to convince the other party by reasoning, these gang-related businesses were inextricably linked with the local government, how could the government watch the shopkeeper of the business being taken away by the public opinion camp.

Since reasoning doesn't work, then the only way to do it is to be rude, Su Hao has a gun in his hand, and he is really not afraid of this group of local bureaucrats. Anyway, when he came to arrest someone, he already tore his face, and there was no need to hide it.

"Deng Zhixian, the bachelor was sent by the imperial court to Runing on an errand, and the imperial court allowed me to do it cheaply. Does the official have any evidence and do he need to explain it to you? Su Hao sank his face and scolded Deng Rugui.

Deng Rugui accompanied the smiling face, but his attitude was very resolute: "Bachelor Su, the lower officials naturally don't dare to question Bachelor Su's case, but after all, these people are from the county, and the top boss of the county is Governor Liu." If Master Su wants to take people away, can you inform Governor Liu in advance, so that the officials can have an explanation. ”

"Governor Liu will inform you." Su Hao said, "Now I don't have time to delay, please trouble Deng Zhixian to get out of the way." ”

As soon as Su Hao said this, several soldiers of the survey battalion behind him raised the spears in their hands, and the tip of the spear was facing Deng Rugui's chest. Deng Rugui looked at the bright tip of the spear, and was stunned for a while, not knowing what to do. At this time, some of the servants he brought were not angry, and muttered softly:

"Where did Qiu Ba come from, he dared to spread wild in the county."

"Who said that?" Su Hao glared and shouted.

"It's him!" A soldier of the survey battalion rushed into the group of officials with lightning speed, pulled out a guy who owed his mouth, and pressed it in front of Su Hao. The other officials only felt that a figure in front of them flickered, and a companion had already been arrested, and they couldn't help but make a noise. Xiong Minyang led more than a dozen soldiers with spears and muskets, facing the group of servants, ready to deal with the unexpected.

"What did you say?" Su Hao ignored the restlessness of the officials, he looked at the guy who was pressed in front of him, and asked coldly.

"I ......" that guy was dumbfounded, he usually likes to complain or something, and he has always been known for his long mouth, who would have expected to meet someone more real.

"Give me a slap in the face, let him keep a memory." Su Hao ordered.

One soldier pressed the hapless officer, and another soldier stepped forward, and couldn't help but say, and slapped him in the face a dozen times in succession, and the other man's face doubled in size at sight.

"Master Su, what do you mean? Dog Fighting...... You've got to see the master, right? Deng Rugui saw Su Hao slapping his subordinates in front of him, and couldn't help but get annoyed and shouted at Su Hao.

Su Hao smiled faintly and said: "Deng Zhixian, the official only beats the dog, not the master, it is already to save face for the master, you are so self-conscious." …… Walk! ”

At the last word exit, the soldiers of the Kanyu Battalion pushed Xia Shushen and Ren Zonghui forward. Faced with spears and muskets, Deng Rugui really couldn't muster up the courage to let the officials stop him. Su Hao had clearly warned the man who slapped him in the face just now, that is, he was a person who dared to do it, and everyone must not challenge his majesty.

In a county town, there are also 100 people in the soap class, the catcher, the people, etc., and if the jailers, the storehouse, the palanquin man, and the husband are all armed, two or three hundred people can be gathered. The soldiers led by Su Hao, that is, about 30 people, were obviously inferior in number compared with Deng Rugui's subordinates.

But the momentum of the regular army is incomparable to these miscellaneous cards in the county government. Besides, if the two sides really fight, the military will hurt the local people, and at best it will lose some money. And if the local people hurt the soldiers, then they can be charged with rebellion, which Deng Rugui can't bear.

Su Hao showed his strength, and Deng Rugui could only give in. His grade was originally lower than Su Hao's, and it was also unruly for the lower officials to prevent the upper officials from acting. Now that the other party still has the army as support, Deng Rugui has no choice but to watch Su Hao and his party escort the people of Huguang Qianzhuang and leave.

"Quick, arrange a fast horse to go to Runing City and report to Governor Liu!" All Deng Rugui can do is to hurry up and sue, he can't do anything about Su Hao, Liu Qichang still has a little power, right?

The same scene also appeared in other counties under the rule of Runing Province. In a few days, the Kanyu Battalion attacked in many ways, raided more than a dozen gambling houses, money houses and commercial houses, and obtained a large number of secret account books, all of which were transported back to Xinglong Gambling House along with the criminals. This gambling house has now become the office space of the Kanyu camp, but Du Weiming has never been allowed to enter the gambling house, but the heartache is getting worse and worse.
