The people queuing up in the county government finally quieted down, just stretched their necks and looked at the master silently, like a group of old turtles basking in the sun.

The silver is losing little by little, and the big box of silver has been exchanged for a bunch of white strips, and they can see that Ma Dezheng's hearts are bleeding, and they just want to slap themselves a few big slaps, and they will not make a noise if they know it.

They have never paid off their debts, but they have forgotten that there are countless debts owed in this yamen, and the reason why no one has come to ask for accounts is that they are all numb.

But now the white strip is not the most important thing, the Chen Family Martial Arts Hall is the most troublesome, looking at the group of lake bandits brought back by Zhuang Rou, one by one fiercely glaring at him, Ma Dezheng remembered the days when they chased him all over the street.

He swallowed his saliva, pulled Zhuang Rou to the side and asked, "Sister Zhuang, why did you bring them back?" Hurry up and let it go! ”

Zhuang Rou was puzzled and said, "You are embarrassed to ask, isn't it something we should arrest if we collect protection money from vendors and shops?" How can they be robbed, you see that they received so many copper coins in just one day, if I remember correctly, most of these will go to the county government, and the rest can be shared. ”

"Those servants who follow you can also get a share of the money, and you don't have to be pitiful when you go out in the future, and there is a group of followers to protect you. You can't have fish and meat at home, prepare some silver for your boy, and marry in the future. ”

Ma Dezheng knew that this was the right thing, but looking at the people in the Chen Family Martial Arts Hall, he only felt sweat on his back, "But their backstage is bigger than our adults, and if you offend them, you have to lose your head, and the previous adult was taken away by the Chen family." ”

"How dare a powerless person like me go against them!"

Zhuang Rou glanced at him, and said to Diao Yi, who had been staring at the half bucket of copper coins for a long time: "Brother Diao, let's lock people in together, and these copper coins will be handed over to the yazhong, and the rest will be divided by a few of us." ”

"Really?" Diao Yi asked with some disbelief, he really hasn't seen so much money, even if there are only two or three ingredients, it's terrible, he hasn't gotten money for work and food for several years, he is supported by the lady in the family washing and mending clothes, and he can't get money to go home every day, and his knees are calloused.

If you could bring some copper coins home every day, how much better this day would be!

When Wu Renyao and Niu Dayong heard this, they rushed over, stared at Zhuang Rou and asked, "What you said is true, we can share this money every day!" ”

"Of course, it should have been our income, so what's the fuss." Zhuang Rou said seriously.

"Alright, we'll get them in right away!" After the two were convinced, they walked over viciously and drove away the people from the Chen Family Martial Arts Pavilion.

The people from the Chen Family Martial Arts Hall stared at them viciously, and threatened unconvinced as they walked: "You two remember, this matter won't be just like this!" ”

"We should be arrested, and there is a little prince here...... We are not afraid of you! Although Niu Dayong and Wu Renyao were afraid, they still shouted loudly for the sake of money, they were offended anyway, so they didn't care so much and rushed them to prison.

Diao Yi hesitated for a moment, but finally followed hard, if he wanted to share the money, he had to work.

Zhuang Rou glanced at Ma Dezheng, and said with a smile: "Head catcher, you think too much, everyone has been like this, what are you worried about?" ”

"......" Ma Dezheng looked at her with a rare seriousness, and after thinking about it for a while, he finally said with a heart, "Then listen to Sister Zhuang!" ”

"Why listen to me, we have to listen to adults, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, even if something is to blame, isn't there still me?" Zhuang Rou said unashamedly.

It's good that there is someone who is willing to carry the black pot, Ma Dezheng hugged his fists and said: "If the adults ask me to go east, I won't go to the west, I'll go and take people down, this Douhu County we have to take it back again, and repair a brilliant county government for adults!" ”

Zhuang Rou patted him on the shoulder and praised: "Ma Zhutou can figure it out best, so let's follow the adults together and go to the soup for him." ”

"Hmm!" Ma Dezheng nodded, and turned to run briskly with his knife, the key to the dungeon was still with him.

While paying the silver, the master looked up at her with a smile, "The Chen family's martial arts hall is nothing to adults, but the Chen family is a troublesome matter, I'm afraid your little copper plate is not enough." ”

Zhuang Rou reached out and grabbed a handful of copper coins, let them fall from between her fingers, making a clattering sound, and then said meaningfully: "Master, you can't let the four guards do everything, although my family is not short of silver, but I also want to earn some money to buy some gifts for my brother." ”

"This is a good thing, adults like white, and small ones can use this yellow one, as for whether it is worth winning people's hearts, it depends on the adults themselves."

She threw the last copper plate into the bucket, shook her head and said, "Small loaches can drill mud, big fish can run rampant in the water, any of them are useful, master doesn't need to say so much." ”

The master touched his beard and was about to say a few more words, but the person waiting at the table to change the white strip was in a hurry, so he stretched out the white strip and shouted: "The official begs you, I will kneel down for you, if you don't bring the money back, even the house will be taken away by the creditor!" ”

"Alright, don't be so pathetic." The master glanced at Zhuang Rou, then ignored her and continued to exchange for silver.

When all the people in the Chen Family Martial Arts Hall were closed, Zhuang Rou had already found them in the backyard with the bucket of money, and according to the rules, he divided thirty percent from it and divided it for everyone.

This time, he arrested the people after confiscating the money, so the money was not much, but each person was still given 200 copper coins, and Ma Dezheng was the head catcher and received 500 Wen.

It's been a long time since I've touched so many copper coins, and a few people have been touching them excitedly, and they are so poor and sour that Zhuang Rou can't stand it anymore.

She waved her hand and hurriedly said, "You take the money back first, and then follow me to collect and receive those shops, and the money they pay is the big one." ”

Everyone looked at her with bright eyes, if they could really take these stores next, it would be bigger.

"Let's go!" Zhuang Rou really couldn't stand their appearance, so she quickly asked them to hand over the money to their home. With the support of the sweetness family, she will do a good job with herself, otherwise, she will not be able to do it alone.

Money can make ghosts grind, and they soon came back, all with ruddy faces, just like the helpless poor ghosts before, not only are they in good spirits, but even the official authority that should be arrested has been brought out, and it looks like they are a bit of a fish and flesh people who should be caught.

Zhuang Rou called everyone to walk behind Ma Dezheng, bring ropes and sticks, and went to look for the store.

The number of people who exchanged money at the door has been greatly reduced, and many of them took the silver and left, Zhuang Rou was about to discuss with Ma Dezheng, when he went to the store first, he suddenly found that a person was walking out of the yamen with a purse containing silver.

Looking at the familiar figure, her eyes lit up and she stretched out her hand to block the person, "Old man, please wait, what a coincidence, how much silver does the county government owe you?" ”

Yi Qian originally thought that he was dead, but he didn't expect that his murder case was found to be committed by someone else, so he was acquitted.

When he returned to the store and took over again, he sent the disobedient people away, and when he heard that the county government had money, he immediately took the white slips that had been owed a few years ago. There were more than 200 taels of silver in total, which was owed by the officials for more than half a year, and the white strips were thick.

Just changed the silver in his arms and planned to go out, but he didn't expect to be blocked, his head almost fell off last time, and now he was scared to death when he saw the official errand, and he suddenly trembled and hurriedly looked up, and was stunned when he saw the person who blocked him.

"It's you, the little girl who was locked up!" Yi Qian saw that this was not the girl who was very annoying in prison, but she was really a person who should be arrested.

Zhuang Rou saw that he recognized him, so he said happily: "I said it a long time ago, I will help you wash away your grievances, you still don't believe it, now you know it's true." ”

This case was not made public, and Yi Qian only knew that there was a real murderer in his case, so he was released without guilt. But what the hell is going on in the case, who solved it doesn't know at all, and now when he is asked like this, he is stunned on the spot.

He looked at the hungry people behind Zhuang Rou who were dressed in tatters, and immediately understood what he was going to say, only to see him arch his hand and say with a smile: "I have recognized the wrong person this official, I don't know who you are, don't hinder your office, I will leave first." ”

"Wait." Zhuang Rou immediately stood in front of him, looked him up and down and said, "You don't admit it, remember me, but your family runs a restaurant, so you have to pay a regular fee to the government every month." Now I would like to remind you that we will come to collect it in a few days, so you don't have to have to deliver it to your door in your busy schedule. ”

Sure enough, I want to cheat the silver!

Yi Qian said with a bitter face: "Official, why do you have to pay the case silver, don't we have to pay two copies, where can the small shop afford it!" ”

"Where did you get the two copies, those lake bandits in the Chen Family Martial Arts Pavilion have been taken down by us, and now there is no need to hand over the money to them, as long as they are handed over to us." Solemn and solemn preaching.

"Huh?" Yi Qian was completely stunned, the background of the Chen Family Martial Arts Pavilion is very big, didn't Chen Zhongping fight with others just now and was stabbed to report to the official?

Zhuang Rou frowned and said impatiently: "Ah what, if you are told to prepare, we will reduce two percent of what they charge, which is enough to cheapen you." ”

"This ......" Yi Qian dared to agree to come down, if he gave it here, what if he was troubled by the people of the Chen family, he had to stutter and stand at the door.

"Ma Zhutou, let's just start from the opposite side and inform each store, so that they know that this Douhu County is already a place with laws, and there is no need to be afraid of lake bandits!" Zhuang Rou reminded Ma Dezheng that people are also head-catchers, and they are her little bosses.

Where does Ma Dezheng have the right to speak now, he can only nod in a muffled voice, "Just do what Sister Zhuang said." ”

Zhuang Rou waved his hand and said, "Everyone come with me and collect the cash!" ”

Yi Qian watched them swagger into the restaurant opposite, quickly wiped his sweat, muttered in his mouth, and hurried back, "This is about to change, Douhu County is going to be uneasy!" ”
