Chapter Seventy-Nine: It's in Your Hands

The scribe Guan was asked by Li You, and he was so frightened that he knelt on the ground.

Li You's mind turned, now is not the time to interrogate him, it is important to send someone to the scene to arrest him. Then he pointed to the scribe and gave the door an order: "Look after him!" If you get away with it, your whole family is asked! ”

After that, Li You went out of the house and asked the night guards to blow the bamboo whistle, and after a while, fifty or sixty people had been assembled.

Without further ado, there is no need to wait for the assembly to be completed. Li You temporarily assigned three teams to be the leaders of this time, and ordered: "Divide it into two roads on land and one road on the water, quickly go to the dock to outflank, bring all the bows and crossbows, shoot the enemy with arrows first, and resist and kill!" Confiscate the smuggled salt, half of it will be rewarded to you, if there is a missed opportunity, Naer and the whole family will ask! The official does what he says! ”

Originally, it didn't matter if the private salt thing was caught or not, there were too many people selling illegal salt in the world, where they were caught, and it didn't matter if the subordinates smuggled some illegal salt, it was just a work welfare, and Li You didn't care about this matter.

But the nervousness of the scribe made Li You suspicious and curious, why should he hide this from me? Why are you still nervous like this? There must be something inside, so I sent someone to arrest him and see what the situation was.

The brigade of men and horses went away in response to the order, and Inspector Li only watched the men and horses disappear into the night. The son of a daughter can't sit down, so he won't learn from those officials who are like the protagonists of online articles who are gangsters.

Back in the class room, Li You asked the scribe, "Anyway, what's the matter?" ”

The scribe collapsed on the ground, and the bamboo tube poured beans 1510 said.

It is said that the salt politics of the country and the dynasty is simply rotten, and almost half of the salt sold in the world is private salt, and in this year, private salt is simply sold semi-publicly.

In this case, the illegal salt dealers are really active, the profits are high, the cost of salt per catty is less than a cent, and the official salt is actually sold for three yuan, of which the profit margin of the illegal salt is big? The premise is to be on a flat patrol, regardless of resistance by force or the use of money, favors, and power.

The inspection is also fake and positive, and there are many benefits, provided that you can catch the stolen goods, and then how to deal with it depends on the situation of all parties. As for the smuggler salt dealer, they all eat by the mouth, unless they are really ignorant, there is no need to be too embarrassed.

The wharf in Xishui Town has a lot of eyeliner from the Inspection Division, but sometimes it is useful to report, sometimes it is useless to report, and it is particular about which ones are checked and which ones are not, and many times they turn a blind eye. Li You didn't bother to change these things when he took office, and just did it according to the usual practice.

Besides, the scribe has a wealthy merchant uncle who plans to marry his daughter to a wealthy old man's family, but this year the atmosphere is extravagant, for fear that the old man will dislike his family, and he wants to prepare more dowry to raise his value. So he gritted his teeth and planned to use his own boat to sell a large amount of illicit salt at one time, and make huge profits to marry his daughter.

But the uncle of this scribe was greatly offended by the new inspector Li You, who may turn a blind eye to others, and he must be strictly investigated, so he found his nephew to discuss.

Guan Shuguan did come up with an idea, saying that the two inspectors were not in the official office, and they heard that the county governor stayed in the county and did not come back. It happened to be his turn to be on duty for the night, so he asked his uncle to transport the goods ashore tonight, although it was almost impossible for thousands of catties of illicit salt not to be discovered. However, in the inspection department, the scribe is on duty at night, and there is no boss there, as long as he gets the information and presses down for half an hour, and when the goods are gone, and then bluffs to send soldiers to arrest him, then there will be nothing.

Sometimes it's really a coincidence that a book is not written, and it just so happens that Li You went to the inspection department to sleep after several tosses and turns tonight. In fact, Li Youlai slept when he came, and it didn't affect the plan of the scribe Guan in the backyard, and the report had to be followed by the scribe Guan.

But another coincidence did not make a book, it happened that Li You looked at the bed quilt left by his old father-in-law, and he couldn't sleep because he was not used to it, so he ran to the front room to chat with the scribe.

In the end, there was no coincidence that the book was written, so that Li You received the wire report to a positive one...

The above confessions of the scribe Guan naturally concealed the identity of his uncle... Let Master Li know who it is, and it is difficult to guarantee what adverse consequences will happen. He thought that there were his own men on the dock to unload, and his uncle was also a small rich man, so he should not be personally involved in danger at home, as long as he was not caught and recognized by the scene, his personal safety was not a big problem.

Li You smiled kindly: "What I didn't notice about this was that I saw that you were nervous and inexplicable, and I wanted to see what you were hiding, so I didn't leave here." It's just a matter of helping relatives transport smuggled salt, and it's worth your nervousness to be like this, how can this official be so unreasonable? If you catch it this time, you can't do it, everyone is leisurely, and you will be released next time. ”

That's your enemy, do you dare to have a next time? Guan Shushu really wants to cry without tears, how can tomorrow's seamless plan become full of loopholes, he really shouldn't be nervous and lose shape to attract attention.

But then again, can he not be nervous? His uncle really offended Inspector Li to death, and Inspector Li didn't know that it was his uncle at this time.

After more than half an hour, those who went out to check smuggling came back one after another. The harvest was quite rich, and nearly 2,000 catties of illegal salt were seized, worth 500 taels (calculated according to the price of the official salt and the pit people). The soldiers who participated were all smiling, and according to the reward of the inspection master, each person could get twenty catties of salt, which was really a lot.

In addition to those who escaped, six prisoners were caught and placed in the judgment hall awaiting punishment. After Inspector Li got the report, he came to the hall, and after sitting down on the public case, he opened his mouth and asked, "Who is in the hall?" Where do you live? ”

A person made a joke and said: "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, the villain has salt to lead." ”

Li You saw that this person was also familiar, he must be a person who often moved around the town, and it was normal for a small amount of real and fake salt to be used as a guise in the hands of a person who sold smuggled salt. Now that the salt goods have been detained, there is really no need to embarrass people anymore, this is also an unspoken rule.

Li You said: "In the middle of the night, you and other sneaky deeds outside, no wonder they have caused misunderstanding among the good people." There are no bad deeds in this official mind, so spare it for the time being! Go to the side hall by yourself, write down your name, and go to the residence! ”

The six of them thanked the inspector and wanted to go out, and among them, a middle-aged man who was a little obese lowered his head and hid behind, which attracted Li You's attention.

"Wait!" Li You pointed to the obese middle-aged man: "Take a candle to your face!" The official should take a closer look. ”

A handyman came up with a candle to illuminate the face of the obese middle-aged man.

It's him! The master of the Guan family who exchanged posts with the Li family twice but regretted it twice. I can't write two words in one stroke, it turns out that the uncle of the scribe is this one!

It is no wonder that the scribe Guan was nervous and wanted to collapse, and the crime of two thousand catties of private salt fell into the hands of Li Inspector, who was not good at stubble, and he had to take off half of his skin if he didn't die. How did Li You turn over and play with Hong Patrol, but the scribe Guan is still in purpose.

It is said that Li You, who was slapped in the face twice, has a grudge in his heart, not to mention that the face of the Li family has not been recovered! This time, the main owner was planted in his own hands, and new hatred and old hatred surged into his heart, Li You gritted his teeth and said: "Outside the customs officer!" How many days are you not seen, and you are okay? Do you know how big a crime it is to sell thousands of pounds of smuggled salt? ”

Those few people knew that it was not good when they heard the bad tone of the inspector master. It is said that it really doesn't matter if you are caught, everyone has no grudge against the inspection, and under normal circumstances, the inspection master will not be full and hold on to what you have to do. With a tacit understanding to pay the goods and go home, the next time you will be more careful, just like doing business, there will always be losses and gains. In fact, Inspector Li was already about to send them away.

But it shouldn't be, this dead Guan Wangba actually has a grudge against the local inspection, and he dares to sell smuggled salt on other people's territory, are you stupid enough to deliberately seek death and pull us on the back? Pure pit people!

I couldn't help but look at the customs officer with extreme hatred.

Don't say anything,

There are poems: After a long time, he came out, still holding the pipa and half covering his face.
