Chapter 656: Show off your skills and seek advancement

"When the thief is caught, I have to cut this bastard with a knife, and then throw it in the field to feed the dogs......"

Listening to Wang Tong's arrangement, Chen Dahe gritted his teeth there and said, even at this time, there were guards outside, and he was stunned there. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Not to mention that he was surprised, even the guards outside reported in a hesitant tone, Wang Tong was also stunned, looked at the people in the room, everyone was extremely stunned, Wang Tong shook his head, and said:

"Let's go out and see"

The guards and servants outside performed their duties, but the guards at the door were a little restless, and lost the silver for two consecutive nights, although everyone would not talk nonsense, but their hearts were full of wonder and anger, and when they were wondering whether the thieves would come on the third night, the other party actually swaggered to send the silver to the door.

There were three carts parked outside the door, a few horses for riding, and eleven men in leather jackets kneeling outside the door, their heads on the ground.

This posture looks respectful, but Chen Dahe, Ma Sanbiao and others are not comfortable in their hearts, and they are continuously calculated, and this kind of respect looks the same as provocation.

"Since I lost the silver, the official has wondered, who is so bold to risk the danger of raiding the family and exterminating the clan to touch this silver, even if it is stolen, it can be hidden for three or five days, but it can't be hidden for ten days or twenty days, seeing you, the official understands."

Wang Tong said with a smile, and the kneeling man in the leather jacket below kowtowed and said:

"What the adults said is that the small ones got their hands on it, and the big households in various parts of the local area began to organize the people to investigate Ding Yong that night, if they didn't follow the adult's team on the official road these days, I am afraid they would be caught and sent."

The towns and villages between Jingshi and Tianjin Wei have lived a lot better these years, and the reason is very simple, young and strong people can go to Tianjin Wei to work and make money, and the property can be sold to Tianjin Wei at a higher price in addition to selling to Jingshi, many large landlords used to have a lot of grain at home, but there is little cash in their hands, and now they are sold to the Sanjiang Commercial Bank that came to buy, and they have taken the money to invest in Tianjin Wei to do business, or stay in their hands, and they have gained a lot of benefits.

In addition to these above-board and upright, Bao Danwen led the salt patrol team to strictly investigate in Tianjin Weizuo, and if the smugglers and salt barons of the Beijing and Tianjin generation want to do business, they must first pass through that checkpoint, and the smugglers and salt barons everywhere are almost all local heroes.

These people are distributed in the countryside and villages, and their vital interests are all related to Tianjin Wei, Wang Tong has suffered losses here, and there is no need for Wang Tong to order anything, or in order to curry favor, or for fear of offending, the local forces will take action themselves.

A village and a township may be nothing, but it can't stand much, the local snakes are well-informed, and it is difficult for outsiders to escape their search.

This is still the situation that Wang Tong did not order, if Wang Tong ordered a search, and the Jinyi guard and the security army were assisted, I am afraid that the wealthy and powerful families in this area would have to take action, and it was difficult for the locals or outsiders who stole the silver to ensure that they would not be exposed, which is also the reason why Wang Tong has not been in a hurry.

"Don't kneel outside, come in and talk"

"Thank you for your grace, the silver stolen in the past two days has been on the cart, and it has not been touched, please count it."

Wang Tong nodded at Tan Jiang on the side, Tan Jiang immediately began to arrange for someone to go over to count, and Wang Tong turned around and walked towards the residence.

Ma Sanbiao and Chen Dahe didn't dare to be ambiguous, and as soon as they greeted, the guards had already surrounded them, two people restrained one, and the other people searched carefully.

was stolen silver, tossed so many things, several generals under Wang Tong were holding their stomachs, and the same was true for the guards below, and their movements were naturally not so gentle, but the eleven men in leather jackets who came should have communicated, so they obeyed the search and did not resist.

"The small surname Shi, who ranks seventh in the family, is called Shi Qi, and after being recommended by Wu Da, he came to join the adult."

A few years ago, Wang Tong asked the Wu brothers to help recruit people from the rivers and lakes, the thieves of chickens and dogs, I thought that someone would come after the first month, but I didn't expect it to be so fast.

"The little ones have always been doing business in Shandong, and they have a deep friendship with Brother Wu, and when they hear the prosperity of Tianjin Wei in Shandong, they have the heart to come here to see the world."

"Oh? Do you want to come to Tianjin Wei to do business, but you haven't found any loopholes?"

Wang Tong asked with a smile, everyone understands the meaning of the words, looking at the behavior of this group of people, it should be the kind of wise thieves, that is, when they use force and violence, they use less time and more wits and tricks.

What they said sounded good, but it meant that they came to Tianjin Wei to make a few cases and make money, but they didn't have a chance to start, so Shi Qi was interested, kowtowed and said:

"Tianjin Wei people come and go, household registration and road investigation is strict, there are too many people who are strong, the small ones are afraid that they can't run out of Tianjin Wei, and Brother Wu also told the small ones, saying that if you want to go back to Shandong, don't commit crimes in Tianjinwei, the end of the tower back then, let the little ones be anxious, and they are sulking here, so they want to go back to Shandong in the first month, but they didn't want to hear Brother Wu say this......"

"Then you go directly to Wu Da and Wu Er, why did you come to steal the official's silver."

"Back to the adult's words, the small one is commensurate with the Wu family brothers in Shandong, but it is not their door, if they go to the side, the small ones are really unwilling, stealing silver is to show the adults the ability of the small ones, or rashly take refuge, there is also the meaning of asking the adults to value."

is different from Wu Da Wu Er's martial arts man, this Shi Qi is of medium stature, slightly chubby round face, even if he has no expression, he seems to be smiling, looking at his appearance and saying that he is a green forest person, no one believes it, if it is said that he is a small shopkeeper or shopkeeper who does business on the street, it is more in line with it.

Although Wang Tong is less than twenty, he has been in a high position for a long time, and he has killed a lot, and he has his own momentum between his gestures.

This Shi Qi has been treated coldly by the guards at the door, and he also knows what he has done in the past few days, but when he kneels in front of Wang Tong to speak, he can still talk in an orderly manner, which is indeed not simple.

Wang Tong saw that the ten people kneeling behind Shi Qi were very nervous, some of them looked around as soon as they entered the door, and some peeked up at Wang Tong, estimating to figure out the way out, but this Shi Qi has been kneeling there all the time, without raising his head, and the rules are very good.

A person in the green forest can have such calmness, coupled with the ingenious arrangement when stealing silver, this Shi Qi is really a talent, Wang Tong had a normal look on his face, and asked again:

"Tell me how I stole it in the past two days, and the official is also curious."

That Shi Qi kowtowed again, and began to say, since he had made up his mind to take refuge and wanted to show his ability, this Shi Qi refused Wu Da's solicitation, but at the same time privately observed Wang Tong's preparations before departure, and when Wang Tong's team went on the road, they also pretended to be merchants and hired a cart to follow.

After walking for a few days, the rules of night duty and so on were clear, they spent money to buy a farmer who sent grass, and followed in the middle of the night, and the farmer was greedy for cheap and agreed, and when something happened afterwards, he didn't dare to say anything for fear of involving himself, but he would not show the news.

At night, I drove over and stole the silver, but did not take the silver back directly, but buried it in the field not far from the cart, although it was winter, but the soil of the field was quite soft, and the weeds and residual snow were here, buried in the ground, if not carefully searched, there was no trace of it, everyone buried the silver, and left lightly, and there were no footprints and ruts.

As soon as Wang Tong got on the road, they took out the silver and drove the cart to follow, this night, they also knew that Wang Tong was on guard, but it was also expected by Shi Qi, and it was convenient for people to get close to the convoy, which cost a few small dollars, and then explain a few words, and the other party would not be suspicious and would follow suit.

This side is still full of hay and follows in, unloading hay or something is as usual, taking advantage of the chaos, but someone untied the cattle and leaned to the side of the cart on Wang Tong's side, pried open the cover, threw silver outward, and threw the silver bag into the pocket carried by the livestock, back and forth several times, when it was quiet, it went out with the brigade, after all, it was night, there was a lot of noise, people were still on duty in shifts, and there was always a vacancy.

"You're familiar with it, have you done such a thing before?"

"Back to the adults, the small ones used to steal caravans and ships in the area of Shandong and Henan, and they were on guard for the first time, but they were taken advantage of by the small ones for the second time, and they often had to move a few times."

"Why did you only do it twice this time?"

Wang Tong was aroused by what Shi Qi said, and he did it again and again, and every time he could get into the other party's loophole, this really needed to be bold and careful.

"Back to the adult's words, after last night's success, go directly back to the village where the small ones stay, but this morning, the big family in the village sent someone to ask, the question is quite detailed, fortunately, the small ones are confused, the small ones have seen the adult's subordinate methods in Tianjin Wei, and now the adults have not moved, the local is already like this, if the adults order, I'm afraid the small ones will not be able to come, and they will be arrested directly outside and thrown into prison......"

Wang Tong nodded, and was muttering there, outside Tan General walked in, and said at the door:

"Master, the number of silver taels is counted correctly, and it is the one that is missing."

At this time, Wang Tongcai asked with a smile:

"If you vote for me, at most you can get a full amount of food, and the money is definitely not as much as you are a thief, are you willing?"

"There is no shortage of money in the small hands, I just want to have an upright official status, and I can straighten my waist when I go back to visit relatives and worship my ancestors."

"Is there a bloody murder on your body?"

"If you return to your lordship, you haven't seen blood in what the villain brothers did..."

After a few questions and answers, Wang Tong nodded and was just about to speak, when a personal soldier outside ran in and said:

"My lord, someone is peeking outside."

Thank you
