Chapter 70: Discuss it
In addition, the price of the things sold by those people is indeed very low, in addition to pheasants, there are hares, wild boars and the like, in short, there are many kinds of things.
Some people in the neighborhood are greedy for cheapness, so they inevitably buy it from them.
So, Lin Liang gave him an idea.
"Well, from today onwards, you will arrange for an inventory of every household. At the same time, let people pay attention to the control of meat prices in this market, the price is too high, there will always be people who can't buy it, and every household will check it. When you encounter something wrong, you immediately search for it. At the same time, at the entrance to the mountain, there are also people who check there, and if they meet people who are not locals, they will not be allowed in. ”
"And how do you know who is not local?" Duan Ling threw out another question.
Lin Liang put away his brows, and after a while, he suddenly slapped his palm.
"It's not simple, just let the town mayor and the village head here all be concentrated, plus some people who usually like to run around, the kind of people who love to inquire about news. Give them a little more money and let them check one by one, so that there will be no problems, right? Although there were no fatalities this time, if the dehydration continues, it is uncertain. ”
Lin Liang's suggestion immediately made Duan Ling's eyes light up.
Then, after discussing it with Liang Qianchen, he asked him to arrange someone to do it.
He and Lin Liang were worried that those officials were unwilling to undertake this kind of complicated inventory work, and they deliberately dressed up with her and made them look like ordinary people, so they planned to go to see in private whether the officials were serious about performing their duties.
Cao Yong, as a local official, although his wife and his son said that they were taken away, Duan Ling specially sent him a letter to report his safety in order to let him pay attention to the matter of this investigation.
said that his wife and son were well stayed, and as for raising money, they could take their time.
Cao Yong has already been pressed over, but because he has money in his hands, he rarely has this kind of time to observe the people's feelings.
This time I was pressed over, and I was reluctant.
Although Duan Ling did not directly identify himself, the token in his hand was already very powerful, and the local county lord naturally wanted to listen to Duan Ling's orders.
This time, when he was dug out of the bed, Cao Yong's face was full of unhappiness.
At this time, he was with the mayor of this town, and he hadn't stood for long, when his eyelids began to fight, and he subconsciously leaned on a table next to him.
When Lin Liang and the others passed, Duan Ling looked at this Cao Yong with a drowsy expression, and was just about to get angry, but Lin Liang grabbed his sleeve first.
Leaned into his ear and whispered, "Wait and see, even if you want to clean up people, you have to catch them." Look at the few officials next to you, one by one, I'm afraid that they can't help but fall asleep, and I'll clean them up later. ”
"I see." Duan Ling nodded, and after forcibly suppressing the unhappiness in his heart, he gestured to the several guards who were not far behind him at this time.
The guard immediately understood, and then silently took a few steps back.
Sure enough, finding that Duan Ling and Lin Liang were dressed as ordinary people at this moment, Cao Yong just glanced up and down, and immediately asked arrogantly.
"Where did it come from? I wonder if the adults have an order now? There's nothing you can't go into the mountains, go along! ”
"My lord, we're just going to the mountains to pick some wild fruits or something." Duan Ling couldn't learn the low-level set, so it was Lin Liang who came forward.
At this time, he pretended to be very careful and flattering, and after saluting Cao Yong first, he accompanied him carefully.
"My lord, we don't mean anything else, it's just that our family is poor, and we can't afford to buy fruits and the like in the market, so we only plan to go up the mountain to find some wild fruits for the elders and children in the family to eat, and ask the adults to make it convenient."
"It's all said, the adults above have orders, don't go!"
Cao Yong looked at Duan Ling and Duan Ling's shabby outfits, and suddenly became even more reluctant to talk to them.
After twisting his head to the side arrogantly, he let his men stop him.
"The adults above have an order, no one is allowed to go in, go back to your house and stay, otherwise, don't blame Lord Ben for arresting you in the government and imprisoning you for a few days!"
"My lord, please make it easier, the old people and children at home are waiting."
When Lin Liang wanted to go up and say a few more good words, the mayor standing next to him looked at Cao Yong with an extremely impatient expression, walked up to Lin Liang, and comforted her.
"I said, 'This girl, you'd better go back with your family first.' We did listen to the orders of the adults above, and you don't want to embarrass us, right? Let's go back. ”
"But......" When Lin Liang wanted to say more, Cao Yong suddenly turned his head and stared at her viciously.
"Either I'll get out of here right away, or I'll arrest you right away! Think about it before you speak. ”
"Let's just go, if you speak so politely, aren't you afraid that someone will come to clean you up when the time comes?"
Duan Ling walked up to Lin Liang and grabbed her hand.
He really didn't want to see Lin Liang talk to Cao Yong and the others with such a low-spirited expression.
It is no wonder that there are many different small organizations in the division of influence in Yulin, which are aimed at each other.
It turned out that it had already decayed into this appearance on it, no wonder Duan Yuan would stretch his hand so long.
It is estimated that Cao Yong and the others will take risks for the sake of the high-ranking officials promised by Duan Yuan.
"In my territory, no one dares to say that I will clean up, acquaintances, hurry up and get out of me!"
Cao Yong pulled down his face, Duan Ling didn't bother to care about him in general, and directly pulled Lin Liang and left.
However, he could also see the expressions of these officials just now.
It seems that what Lin Liang said before is indeed true, only by inspecting it on the spot can we understand how these officials usually behave.
Therefore, after walking to the nearest teahouse and sitting down, the guards who had just arranged for a long distance behind also found their own tables and sat down.
Lin Liang stretched out his hand and clicked on the table, asking Duan Ling next to him what to do.
"As far as they do, it is estimated that even if it is given ten days and half a month, then they can't find out the reason, I see, several of them must be about to fall asleep."
Between the words, it is difficult to hide the mockery.
When they passed just now, if it weren't for the fact that although the two of them were dressed very shabby, they were still politely asking, it is estimated that a few people would want to expel them directly.
This shows how bad the bureaucracy has been.
"But there are still people around here who need to go up the mountain to chop firewood and hunt, why don't we find a few people to try it again?" Lin Liang suggested.
