105 Spiritualism
Duan Chu entered the mansion and came to Wen Chaotian's residence.
He saw Mr. Wen Chaotian Wei and Tie Si Prison Ma Qianli, discussing the case.
To be honest, not to mention losing a penny, even losing a jade pendant, or two pearls, is nothing to these rich families.
But just like the eldest prince of Qian, he said to his eldest lady: What if the other party does not want money, but wants his own head?
So many wealthy families gathered around the gate of the government office, asking Wen Qingtian in unison to make decisions for everyone.
Wen Chaotian also felt that something was wrong.
He wanted to go out and ask in person, but was stopped by Mr. Wei.
"My lord, you are the last wall of Pengzhou Mansion, if you go out and can't tell why, then the people will only be more afraid, or work hard to block it."
Mr. Wei has a point.
Wen Chaotian is the last guarantee of Pengzhou Mansion.
He must not be allowed to behave anxiously outside, so that the people of the entire Pengzhou Mansion, whether rich or poor, will have no bottom in their hearts.
Tie Si Prison gritted his teeth, planning to go out for Wen Chaotian first and take a black cauldron.
But he was not stupid, and pulled Ma Qianli before leaving: "Ma Zhutou, I can't deal with so many people, you have dealt with them all, you are with me, you can take care of it." ”
Ma Qianli didn't really want to go.
Yesterday, Wen Chaotian asked him to count the losses of merchants, which is a fat gap.
Regarding the loss of the Jiang butcher, he counted it like this: "The Jiang family meat case, the black-skinned pork, the loss of 300 catties, the century-old solid wood board, broken one." ”
The price of black-skinned local pig is one-third higher than that of ordinary pork.
As for the meat board, it has been inherited for a hundred years, and the ginger butcher has just used it for two years.
What's more, the pork that the ginger butcher rolled on the ground had already picked it up, and after it was washed, it was not delayed in selling.
So the ginger butcher took more than three taels of silver at once.
As for Tailor Zhao's losses, the statistics are even more outrageous.
According to statistics, the high-quality cloth of Zhao tailor has been cut into as many as seven or eight rolls, but in fact, there are only ten meters of cloth, which is contaminated with dust.
Tailor Zhao took an extra five taels of silver.
As for Granny Wang's eggs, according to Ma Qianli's statistics, the losses are as follows: 100 wild eggs born on the cliff of the colorful winged pheasants riding Longshan.
After Granny Wang got the compensation of two taels of silver, she finally gave Ma Qianli a slight smile.
"That's all over this matter, but you want me to help you tell Duan Chu about it, but there is no door."
The matter of Granny Wang's son has long been settled by Ma Qianli.
However, there was only Zhao Ruyi in Duan Chuxin, and Miss Ma still disagreed, and she almost didn't starve to death from hunger strike a few days ago, and she was very resolute.
In the end, it was Ma Qianli, who begged her daughter in a low voice, and Miss Ma barely ate.
This kind of family affair, Granny Wang doesn't want to be tied from the bottom of her heart.
Both men and women are unwilling, and they will definitely touch a nose of ash and fill up their heads.
The signboard of the first matchmaker in Pengzhou will be smashed.
Anyway, except for Granny Wang and Ma Qianli, who didn't get a kickback, other merchants gave him kickbacks privately, a total of one hundred and twenty taels.
In addition to the twenty taels distributed to his subordinates, Ma Qianli was at the beads, and the lost ten taels of gold were fished back by him at once.
Old man Qian, he can only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
There is no way, Lord Wen took this opportunity to settle the old accounts with the new accounts of Prince Qian.
Old man Qian, he still knows the priorities.
What his family owes to the people of Pengzhou is not just more than a thousand taels of silver.
Although in the past, Mr. Qian was just teasing the good family and did not snatch people away, but if it weren't for Changninghou's support and the previous prefect's protection, Mr. Qian would have been able to sit through the prison.
This time he lost more than 1,000 taels of silver, so that his son could have a lesson.
Second, it can also calm the grievances of the people of Pengzhou.
So the old man Qian paid the full amount.
But after all, it was a thousand taels of silver, and it was inevitable that he would feel distressed, and after he compensated, he didn't ask Wen Chaotian to release the eldest prince of Qian quickly.
"Just let that rebel suffer for a few more days!" Old man Qian said.
……
Ma Qianli had just reaped the benefits, and he had Wen Chaotian's order, so he reluctantly made it difficult and went out with Tie Si Prison to deal with those stolen rich people.
Tie Si Prison counted the losses over there, and Ma Qianli appeased a group of merchants.
Under the leadership of Lord Wen, the Pengzhou Mansion will definitely reverse the recent public security situation as soon as possible, and everyone can rest assured that the thieves will be arrested soon...... And so on.
Boss Jin of Pengzhou Mansion Qian Zhuang squeezed through the crowd and quietly approached Ma Qianli.
"Ma Zhutou, can you recommend a few martial arts nurseries to the contemptible people?"
Ma Qianli listened to it and patted his chest: "Boss Jin, no problem, this matter is on me, I guarantee that the four nursing homes with strong martial arts will go to your house to report tonight, but ......"
Ma Qianli rubbed his fingers.
Boss Jin hurriedly said: "As long as the martial arts are strong and the cost is high, Ma Zhutou doesn't have to worry about it." ”
As soon as Boss Jin opened his mouth, other wealthy people made the same request as Ma Qianli.
Since the government can't guarantee everyone's safety, it's better to pay out of your own pocket to hire a nursing home.
Ma Qianli never thought that he had come out to carry the black pot for Lord Wen, but he had a business again.
Hundreds of wealthy households need hundreds of nursing homes, which is big business.
A nursing home, a rebate of five dollars of silver a month, a spring down, a good income.
He hurriedly called a few henchmen.
Ma Qianli explained to them, hurry up and go to the surrounding state capitals, looking for martial arts masters, if it is a dart master of the dart bureau, there is no need to test, and they will go to work directly.
Tie Si Prison frequently looked at this side.
Ma Qianli walked to Tie Si Prison and rubbed his fingers at him, meaning that your share is indispensable.
Tie Si Jian didn't nod or shake his head, and continued to record with his head down.
"Lao Tie, this old fox, doesn't leave any handle at all, even if I give him the money when I turn around, if something really happens, he can get rid of it!"
Ma Qianli felt at this time that the cattle inspection, which often did not deal with him, was still more cute.
Anyway, after their cooperation, and the rich people also had some scruples, they didn't dare to offend the government, and in the end, this matter was fooled.
……
But Wen Chaotian knew it in his heart.
Fooling can only be temporary, and if you want to solve the problem completely, you still have to dig out the black hand behind it.
"A dog, even if it can kill people and dig out its heart, can't steal so many homes at the same time in one night, could it be that there is a master of evil arts who uses the spell carried by the five ghosts?"
Wen Chaotian didn't believe in ghosts and gods before, but now he has to believe in it.
After all, the old poplar tree can become essence, that is what he saw with his own eyes, and now the spiritual root of the old tree is still in his residence.
Duan Chu wanted to speak, but Mr. Wei shook his head.
Mr. Wei looked at Xiang'er, who was making tea.
Xiang'er originally wanted to stay out of the matter, but then she had to speak: "About these, I also listen to Liu Banxian...... Ahem, I heard Blind Liu say that it should be a spiritual mastery. ”
Human beings are the spirits of all things, which does not mean that other creatures do not have aura.
For example, cats and dogs that have the most contact with humans.
"According to what Liu Blind said, combined with my judgment, I feel that the little guy in Tsing Yi was taken out of his heart by an old dog raised by a spirit master, and as for the money lost by the rich family, it may not have been stolen by the dog."
When Xiang'er said this, her face was full of disgust:
"Only a swarm of rats can commit a case of stealing hundreds of homes at the same time."
Mr. Wei nodded, expressing his appreciation for Xiang'er.
Duan Chu should have decided on this case from the beginning, and he would not back down at this time, standing up and saying:
"Rats are lurking in the dark ditch, it must be difficult to track, then let's start with the dog, Master Wen, this still needs Ma Zhutou to cooperate with me, after all, he is the most familiar with the street."
Mr. Wei nodded.
Wen Chaotian slapped the coffee table and said, "Okay, this matter will be handled by Yuan Qi, immediately close the city gate, and search the whole city for suspicious old dogs." ”
"The point is that the old dog over the age of twelve." Xiang'er reminded again.
Duan Chu took the order out, joined the horses for thousands of miles, and went to the school military field to find the cattle for inspection.
The city of Pengzhou was soon closed with four gates.
Hundreds of officers and soldiers of the government service and inspection department began to search house to house, and the old dog of more than 12 years old.
I don't know if I don't check, and I'm shocked when I check it.
Unexpectedly, in Pengzhou Mansion, there are more than a dozen old dogs over the age of twelve.
But look at these old dogs, their teeth are dull, and they don't look like murderers who can dig out their hearts.
As for the yellow dog of the ginger butcher's family, it actually missed the screening.
Because Jiang Xiaomei fed it dog meat before, let it have a rejuvenation after the age of eighteen.
So everyone thought that the old dog of the Jiang butcher's family had died a long time ago, and the current dog was adopted later.
However, Jiang Xiaomei got the news and didn't dare to be careless.
If this dog is planted, then she is finished!
