The Wei family in Luting Village comes and goes, and the royal mansion in the county is like a city.

"The fourth master has a lot of opportunities, and now he has taken the position of a teacher, so he is even busier! The students in the county have to be supported by you, what are you busy with, the people under us are waiting to lay paper and polish ink for you! ”

It was the county's catcher who spoke, called Zhang Hong, he said this, and a few small catchers who came with his subordinates followed the flattery, and said, "If the fourth master has anything that can't be left behind, leave it to us to ensure that it is done properly!" ”

The fourth master in their mouth is not the person who does the four, but the fourth in command of the county government, the classic history.

The first official of the county government is naturally the county, and there is a county and a master book below, and the fourth one is the canonical history. The first three all have grades, and the classic history is also from a serious background, but it is inferior in grade. Ke Dianshi's subordinates are in charge of the county's criminal affairs, and the lowly and powerful officials who seem to catch fast and others all flatteringly shout "Fourth Master".

Anqiu County's current fourth master of the canonical history is Wang Fu, he was already in charge of the county's criminal affairs, and now Hong Jiaoyu is sick in bed, and the county magistrate asked him to temporarily take the post of teaching according to the usual practice.

How majestic it is to grasp public security and education with one hand.

The catchers got the news and rushed over to congratulate them, but they were already in front of the six-room scribes. is also a Xu official, all working under the history of the classics, and was preempted by others, which is no longer good-looking, so catch Zhang Hong at this time, take his subordinates, and hold Wang Fu vigorously, and ask him to leak some grace between his fingers.

Wang Fu was used to seeing such things, and knew that Zhang Hong was a well-informed and old-fashioned person, so he bowed his head to him, "It's easy to say." ”

Zhang Hong was so happy, nodded and took his subordinates to catch the baby quickly, and saw that Wang Fu was beautiful, smiling and squinting, so he sent the people below and stayed to serve tea to Wang Fu.

"The fourth master is full of red faces, and good things will continue to happen in the future!" Zhang Hong hunched his waist and brought the teacup to Wang Fu with both hands, "I got a thing today, a rare thing, it looks a little interesting, the fourth master, listen to it?" ”

Wang Fu didn't shirk, took the tea with his right hand, and took a sip. The tea heat is just right, and the hot water is accompanied by the fragrance of tea, rolling down the stomach on the tip of the tongue, and the whole body heats up.

This is Zhang Hong's ability, not everyone can bring a bowl of tea at the right time. Wang Fu took a sip, and his whole body was relaxed by the hot roll of tea, "You say." ”

"That's the case, early this morning I took over the first surname Dai Zong Jia, this surname Dai has also come twice, I didn't dare to say it before, I didn't dare to say it, I didn't see it as a thing, this time I caught him and asked clearly, he just said, there is a Green Pavilion Village in their area, and there are people in the village who blatantly store salt!"

"Tun Salt?" Wang Fu frowned.

"It's Tun Yan! Not only in their own village salt, but also to other villages, people from nearly dozens of surrounding villages, all carried their own salt to Luting Village, making the villages restless and chaotic. ”

"Yo," Wang Fu was surprised, and put down the teacup in his hand, "Three coins of silver and a pound of salt, who can put so much salt?" Do you dare to reduce the price of salt privately? Don't want to die? ”

The price of official salt is set by the imperial court, and in principle, whoever trades official salt cannot move the price, otherwise it is equivalent to selling illicit salt.

"That's not it, if you really dare to collect salt at a low price, I don't have to ask the fourth master for advice, right?"

"What's going on?" Wang Fu pushed the teacup and motioned for Zhang Hong to bring some more tea.

Zhang Hong hurriedly went, this time poured more from the teapot than last time, and asked the tea to keep the temperature as much as possible, held it in front of Wang Fu, and said: "This family did not reduce the price of salt, and did not even take silver, and exchanged grain for salt with people from dozens of villages!" ”

"Roar! Who has a lot of food? Why haven't I heard that there is such a family in Luting Village? Wang Fu was shocked.

"Don't say that the fourth master is shocked, the little ones are shocked! I said I didn't believe it, the general manager surnamed Dai said that it was true, and the truckloads of grain had been changed for several days! ”

Zhang Hong spoke, stretched out his hand and gestured, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, "Why is it strange to say this?" The exchange for food is a family surnamed Wei in Luting Village, which starved to death several people last year and this year, and there is only one boy left in the family, just ten years old. The fourth master said, where did he get the food? ”

Wang Fu listened to the situation of the Wei family, and asked with a smile: "Who did it in his name?" What are the benefits of doing this? ”

"Isn't it? I heard that it is the salt exchanged for the rice of Yangzhou every other year with nine coins and a bucket, and it doesn't matter whether the salt tide is tidal or not, whether it is lumpy or not, as long as it is a real official salt, it will be exchanged! ”

"Yangzhou rice in the next year of nine coins and one bucket?" Wang Fu sat up straight, "There is no such thing as doing good deeds and accumulating virtues, right?" There must be a problem! ”

This sentence "There must be a problem", to the point, Zhang Hong hurriedly said: "Isn't it?" First of all, the surname Dai didn't say it, but this one, the little one didn't think it was a trivial matter! Ask the surname Dai, who instructed it, and the surname Dai can't say well, just say that next door to the Wei family, is a big family surnamed Guo in Luting Village, and there are a lot of people in the family, the important thing is that a few days ago, the grain in their mile was under the control of the grain chief, and the family surnamed Guo was unwilling, so he took a few people from the village to rob the grain chief's family! ”

"Could it be that the Guo family dared to rob the grain distributed by the county and let people exchange it for salt? It's worth it! Wang Fu raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Hong hurriedly said: "I think so too, but the general armor surnamed Dai said vaguely no, saying that the food is also divided, but it is not much, I see that there is a cat here!" ”

When Wang Fu heard the explanation, he paused, didn't speak for a while, and looked up and down at Zhang Hong. Seeing Zhang Hong's thoughtful face, he asked, "They are not fools in the village, can they let the surnamed Guo take care of it?" The matter of Tunyan was originally the Wei family's business, how could it be involved in the Guo family? ”

"This ......"

Wang Fu didn't follow Zhang Hong's words, but asked Zhang Hong a rhetorical question, and Zhang Hong was a little unable to answer for a while.

Zhang Hong hurriedly smiled and made up for it: "Isn't this the Wei family's strange thing, and the Guo family is a close neighbor of the Wei family, so it's suspicious!" ”

"Huh!" Wang Fu glanced at him with a smile, "From the Wei family to the Guo family, how much money did you collect from the surname Dai?" ”

Wang Fu is not a loss is a classic history of many years, the things here can be seen clearly, Zhang Hong didn't dare to hide it, he didn't want to hide it, he immediately buckled two pieces of broken silver from his waist and respectfully put them in front of Wang Fu's eyes.

"The surname Dai can't tell me about the Wei family and the Guo family, and I can't say it well if I ask me, don't I have to ask you for something? The fourth master has seen a lot, tell me what crime the Wei family has committed, let's go ask and investigate, there must be a name, right? ”

Wang Fu saw him take the money, listened to his kind words, smiled and stretched out his hand to nod him, "If you want to make a profit, call me in to support you on the field, the older you get, the more oily you get, Lao Zhang!" ”

Zhang Hong laughed hesitantly, and didn't answer, and said after laughing: "Isn't it just your words?" The people below have me watching, and your filial piety is indispensable! ”

Wang Fu didn't take these two small sums of money in his eyes, but he was comfortably praised by Zhang Hong, and of course he gave Zhang Hong face.

"The price of rice in Anqiu has not dropped to nine dollars a bucket, and the Wei family pays this price for salt, this is to lower the price of salt, shouldn't it be caught?" Wang Fu pointed out the key point at once, and glanced up at Zhang Hong as he spoke.

"As for the Guo family, I think you know better than you what to do."
