The master's eyes are about to see flowers at this time, and his eyes are full of red bloodshots.

Lin Liang couldn't bear to let an old man like this, so he had no choice but to let him go over and rest for a while.

"Then master, you wait here, and I will naturally call you again when I need to."

"Hey, got it, got it."

The old master also understood in his heart at this time that in order to be greedy for cheapness at that time, he naturally did a stupid thing.

Therefore, this time they were detained by Lin Liang and the others in the government of the county order, and they did not dare to have any complaints.

"Already checked?" Duan Ling had to personally supervise the construction of the embankment during the day, and he could only come back at dusk.

When Lin Liang saw Duan Ling coming back, he had already stepped forward to greet him.

However, when he heard Duan Ling ask, he shook his head helplessly.

"No, I watched it with the master all day today, and I didn't get anything, and I didn't find the same handwriting as the person on the piece of paper given to him that day."

"It's weird, but the whole city has written this piece of paper?"

Duan Ling's face was not good-looking at this moment.

"So, the trail has been broken again?"

"Isn't it? Speaking of which, I really wonder if someone is hiding it, or guessing what we are going to do, and deliberately wrote a completely different handwriting than it was at the time. Lin Lianghu was suspicious.

"It's not entirely impossible, it's just that there are so many people in the city who can write, and trying to find that person is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack."

Duan Ling felt tired all over, and Lin Liang hurriedly sent hot tea.

After drinking the cup of tea, Duan Ling instead explained to his subordinates to continue to track down the whereabouts of the silver.

After all, the silver sent by the emperor at that time had a special mark under each ingot.

Once it is secretly withdrawn, no matter which side it flows to, as long as the silver is not melted down, it is re-made into other silver nuggets, and there are naturally traces to follow.

Duan Ling's method really had some effect, starting from the place where the flood occurred and spreading all the way around, and all the vehicles that had recently entered and exited were carefully checked.

"My lord, someone really quietly used a vehicle to transport a large number of goods last night, maybe silver, my lord, can you go and track it down?"

Fifteen hurriedly ran in, and after Duan Ling heard this, he immediately turned over from the bed and sat up.

"Who is it? Did you find out where the money went? ”

"The subordinates haven't found out yet, but the other party did go out of the city last night, and the subordinates have already let people follow in secret."

"Go after it now!" Duan Ling was just about to put on his coat and go with Fifteen to track down the whereabouts of the car, but was stopped by Lin Liang.

"Fifteen, you go out for the time being."

Fifteen hurriedly retreated first, but Lin Liang grabbed Duan Ling's sleeve at this time, his eyes full of worry.

"Husband, yesterday we were busy checking the candidates for the handwriting behind the scenes. In the evening, there were already people going out of the city in carriages carrying things that might have been silver, husband, don't you think this point in time is too much of a coincidence? ”

"Liang'er, what do you mean?"

Duan Ling heard Fifteen mention it just now, and he was also not at ease about the matter of silver, so he thought about catching up and taking a look in person.

It's really overlooked, this time is too strange.

"Husband, if you really want people to track it down, you don't have to go in person, I always feel that someone is deliberately misleading us, and after arranging most of the people to track down the silver, it can give them the opportunity to implement the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain."

As soon as Lin Liang persuaded him like this, Duan Ling immediately came back to his senses.

After giving Fifteen some instructions, he led his men to find out where the carriage was going.

As for him, he was in charge of the construction of the embankment with Lin Liang here.

But after all, there is not much shadow left here.

In addition, as said at the time, except for the funds that the imperial court was allocating, the rest were handed over to the county order and Li Lin for safekeeping.

At this moment, there were even people who carried suspected silver out of the city without permission, and the money for building the embankment was not enough. When Duan Ling presided over the construction of the embankment, there were people crying.

"My lord, you have to make the decision for us, now that the money is gone, where can I buy materials?"

"That's right, my lord, it's said that it's still raining upstream. If this continues, our side will not be able to stop it at all. ”

Duan Ling was also in a hurry, he had already asked Fifteen to go and track down the silver.

But two days later, there has been no news back, and it is difficult to hide the worry.

However, in order to appease these people, Duan Ling could only persuade from the side.

"Don't worry, everyone, the construction of the embankment cannot be delayed. In any case, the official will naturally raise money for you. ”

"Then, my lord, hurry up and think of a way, if you delay like this, it really won't work."

Duan Ling nodded one after another, but after going back that day, it was Li Lin who was the first to greet him.

Still holding a box in his hand, Duan Ling just nodded lightly at him.

Subsequently, Li Lin followed Duan Ling and went to the county commander's office.

"Master Li came over suddenly, is there something important?" Duan Ling asked.

"Yes, the lower official already knew about the silver before, and it was indeed the lower official who was not thoughtful. Therefore, the lower officials are willing to do their part. ”

After Li Lin finished speaking, he opened the box he was holding in his hand.

There were a few silver tickets neatly placed inside, and on them, there were some gold, silver, and the like.

"What do you mean?"

"Xia Guan knows that he has caused a lot of trouble to the adults because of his own reasons before, and now it has also affected the construction of the embankment, so Xia Guan is willing to donate all his silver to help the adults."

Li Lin suddenly showed such a deep understanding of righteousness, which surprised Duan Ling.

But at this time, even if there is a little silver, it is a charcoal in the snow for them.

Therefore, Duan Ling accepted it unceremoniously.

"In this case, Lord Li's kindness is in the heart of this official. When the matter here is over, I will naturally report to Your Majesty. ”

"Thank you, my lord, these are what the lower officials should do."

Seeing that Duan Ling accepted it, Li Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

Of course he knew that Duan Ling had a special identity.

Moreover, the affairs of these silver were also entrusted to him and the county magistrate.

But something happened, and he and the county magistrate still didn't know anything.

If you can raise money in time to get this thing over, it will be the best.

Otherwise, the appointed time has come.

I haven't finished dealing with the disaster relief yet, and I'm afraid that after returning to the capital, Your Majesty will inevitably be reprimanded.
