Finally talking about the key issues, Yang Tashan smiled unhurriedly and said: "I don't dare, how can I ask for the official's money." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info just under the ...... I'm a little busy, I'm afraid I don't have time to help you two. ”

The thin monkey was so angry in his stomach, and scolded secretly: You are a busy fart, if you are busy, you will still be shaking a fan here in the daytime to accompany the little maid to take the soles of your shoes, it's not that you don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles. He thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it, now was the time to beg someone.

The thin monkey said with a smile: "I can see that the little brother is a cheerful person, so I won't beat around the bush, and tell me frankly, the prefect promised fifteen taels of silver as a reward for this matter, who wants to solve this case and retrieve the official seal, the reward is fifteen taels of silver for nothing." As long as my brother helps us solve this case, all the fifteen taels of silver will belong to you, brother, and we don't want a penny. What do you think? ”

Yang Tashan was secretly happy in his heart, fifteen taels? Great, if you get it together, you can buy your own adobe house and have a home of your own, which is Yang Tashan's biggest dream now. Although he was happy in his heart, his face did not show it, and he smiled: "This ...... It's not good. ”

The thin monkey was a little loose when he heard Yang Tashan's words, and hurriedly said: "Yes, you help us solve this case, you take the money, we take the credit, both sides are beneficial, besides, our brothers can still be exempted from the twenty boards." ”

In ancient times, the official set a time limit for the arrest and solve the case, which is called "limit", the general case is five days, and the major case is three days.

Therefore, when the arresters can't solve the case, they would rather spend money to find someone in the prison to help them take the crime, and if they confess the crime, the case will be solved.

It's just that this time the case is to find the stolen official seal, and there is no way to find someone to blame, so it needs to be genuinely investigated to retrieve the official seal. Therefore, the thin monkey and the rabbit tooth caught the two fast and found Yang Tashan.

Yang Tashan said: "Since the two officials have moved, and there are fifteen taels of silver, they will not shirk in the future." ”

The two catchers were overjoyed, stood up and bowed: "Thank you, little brother." From their surprised looks, you can know how important this matter is to the two of them.

Yang Tashan hurriedly got up and returned the salute, beckoned the two to sit down, and said: "This is to detect the theft of the official seal of the prefect, it is necessary to enter the yamen or even the internal office to investigate the scene, and it may also be necessary to investigate and inquire with the prefect or related people." I'm a flat-headed commoner, what should I do? ”

The thin monkey and the rabbit tooth were stunned, the two of them really hadn't thought about this problem, just thinking about Yang Tashan as soon as he came out, dangdangdang, he found the lost official seal, and the case was solved, they were all happy, they didn't think about it so carefully. Now that I heard what Yang Tashan said, I realized that this is really a problem.

Rabbit Tooth Catcher said quickly: "Otherwise, let's let the little brother disguise himself and go in to find out?" ”

The thin monkey slapped him on the head: "You fool, which prefect in the yamen doesn't know?" I will definitely ask, can I get past it? ”

Rabbit Tooth touched his head, and said, "Or, what does the little brother want to ask and what to investigate, tell us, let's go ask and check?" ”

When the thin monkey heard this, it was an idea, and nodded: "You stupid bear finally came up with a useful idea, not bad." ”

Rabbit Tooth was very happy. The two of them looked at Yang Tashan together to see what his opinion was.

Yang Tashan shook his head: "If this is the case, I dare not guarantee that I can solve this case, it is impossible to entrust the investigation site, you must go in person, because you have to find clues from it, you can't see it, so I came to me, and then entrusted you to investigate, what's the use?" ”

The two nodded, thinking that this was not bad. The thin monkey asked, "Little brother, what do you think you should do?" ”

Yang Tashan has already thought of a way, he wants to use this case, not only to earn fifteen taels of silver, but also to enter the six doors as a catch. However, you can't say this yourself, it's better for them to mention it, otherwise, they will lose money for what they want to do to go out of the door or something.

Yang Tashan said: "You can't help it, what can I do, I'm not fast, just go in and out of the yamen or even the inner ya, the prefect has to cure my crimes, I don't want to be punished for no reason, otherwise, forget about this matter, I believe you can solve this case and recover the official seal of the prefect." ”

The thin monkey smiled bitterly, he knew exactly how many catties and taels he had, and if he had a way, he would not have thrown away the fifteen taels of silver to ask Yang Tashan for help. What should I do now?

Rabbit Tooth Catcher said: "Otherwise, let's talk to the head catcher, make a special case, and let the head catcher judge Xing Tong, first recruit Brother Yang to be a catcher, how about it?" ”

The three classes of officials in the yamen are all established according to regulations, and they cannot be increased at will. When the prefect's yamen is about to retire from illness or dies and needs to be filled, the head catcher decides on the candidate, and it is enough to report to the general judge (Zheng Liupin) who is responsible for patrolling and arresting for approval, and this kind of thing does not need to be reported to the prefect's lord. Therefore, whether it can be the prefect's yamen can be caught quickly, the head arrest and the general judgment play a decisive role.

The thin monkey frowned: "This matter is not very easy to do, after the old king's head retired last month, there was a vacant position, but now there is a sea of people earning this position, my cousin also came to me this morning and said that I would send someone to fill this vacancy, and the price has been raised to six taels of silver, and I am having a big head." After that, he glanced at Yang Tashan meaningfully.

Of course, Yang Tashan knew that he wanted to let himself take out some money to make some connections, not to mention that he only had two thousand copper coins now, and the money was not enough to make some money, even if there were, Yang Tashan would not take it, he was very stable in his heart, this prefect's official seal was lost, and it was not an ordinary case. This official seal cannot be found if it is lost, and the dismissal of the official is still light. Therefore, the prefect will definitely put pressure on this gang of fast catchers. They are desperate and will definitely agree to whatever they ask.

As long as you find the official seal, not to mention just entering the yamen as a catcher, it is not a big problem to be a catcher. However, Yang Tashan doesn't want the price to be too high, as soon as he goes, he will be a head catcher, which will cause people to be jealous, and the responsibility of head hunting is too great, so it is not as easy and comfortable as catching a quick catch.

Therefore, Yang Tashan pretended not to know, and still looked at the thin monkey stupidly.

Seeing that Yang was not on the road, the thin monkey simply made it clear: "Brother Yang, if you can come up with six taels of silver, I can find a way to make you a catcher immediately, so that you can enter the yamen to solve this case?" When you solve the case and get back the official seal, you will get fifteen taels of silver for white flowers, deduct the six taels, and there will be nine taels! What do you think? ”

"Huh? Okay, isn't it just money! Yang Tashan turned his head and asked Xing'er, and quietly blinked his eyes: "Xing'er, go and get six taels of silver!" ”

Xing'er Bingxue was smart, and when she saw Yang Tashan's eyes, she immediately understood, and said with a bitter face: "Young master, how can we still have so many." He took out a money bag from his bosom and poured it into his hand: "Well, all our money is here." ”

Yang Tashan gave all the money to Xing'er and asked her to be a housekeeper. Xing'er put most of the money in the room and put it away, and the money bag on her body only contained dozens of dollars to buy vegetables and rice.

The thin monkey stretched out his head and took a look, and saw that Xing'er had at most twenty or thirty cents on her palm. Shaking his head, he sighed: "This money is not even enough for a fraction...... Brother Yang should keep it himself. ”

Rabbit Tooth Catcher quickly said: "Or, let Brother Yang be the catcher, and when the case is solved and the reward is obtained, then the head catcher and Xing Tong will be sentenced, how about it?" ”

According to the rules, more than half of the silver should be given to the general judge who has the right to decide, and the rest will be given to the head catcher. As for those who are introduced, they can only ask for another benefit from those who seek the messenger.

The thin monkey glanced at Yang Tashan: "This is okay, I don't know if Brother Yang is willing or not." ”

"I don't want to!" Yang Tashan said bluntly, he has now seen the other party's hole cards clearly, and he is confident, and he doesn't let go at all, "I still have to save this money to buy a house." It's not always a problem to rent someone else's house to live in. ”

The thin monkey knew that Yang Tashan had already figured out his own details, and it was just a waste of time for him to bargain again, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!" I'll give you the money, as long as you can help get the official seal back, I'll ...... the six taels of silver I confessed. ”

Rabbit Tooth said: "Big brother, how do you explain to your cousin?" ”

"It's a fart on this knot! The head catcher has spoken, this case can't be solved, if the master dismisses the official, we all have to roll up and get out! I can't protect myself, can I still take care of others? Alas~! I had to return the money to my cousin and tell her that there was no vacancy. ”

Rabbit Tooth said: "I'm afraid, it can only be like this." ”

Yang Tashan heard him say that his cousin asked him to help a person enter the yamen as a catcher, his heart moved slightly, he didn't have time to think about it, he was very happy to see that the matter was roughly done, but he didn't seek to advance and retreat, and said: "I'm not a fairy, but I don't dare to guarantee the ticket to definitely be able to solve this case, if I can't solve it, then what can I do?" ”

The thin monkey nodded: "Brother, this is also true, so let's do it, I told the head catcher that I will use this case as a test for you, and if you solve the case and get back the official seal, I will officially recruit you to be a fast catcher, if you can't solve it, you will come back and continue to be a coolie." What do you think? ”
