Chapter 396: The lock is opened

"Beast!"

"Scum!"

The people began to curse. Especially the young people, especially the students inside.

They pointed at Zhao Dianshi's nose and scolded, and all kinds of ancient and modern ugly curses were used.

But Chen Letian shook his head secretly, this is too civilized, the scholar's scolding is really good, neither greeting the eighteenth generation of the ancestors nor touching the relatives, just scolding so dryly, there is no lethality.

If you change to the men in the army, the scolding can be repeated day and night, and you will specialize in the lower three roads and the ancestors and relatives.

After scolding the people for a while, the county lord raised his hand and signaled everyone not to make noise, and the young people gradually stopped. Zhao Dianshi's legs were already trembling at this time, for fear that the people would rush up and tear him apart in the next moment.

If it is really torn up, it will be torn, as long as the final crime can be confirmed, there will not be much punishment for the people, it is nothing more than to lock up a few leaders for ten days and half a month, and then let them go.

"Everyone is quiet, this is also a public court, don't be so noisy. The county man frowned and said, "What else should you do with this official?"

"Dig out the box and bring it up. The county ordered.

The officials hummed and dug for a while, and the box finally bottomed out, about three feet high. The four officials tried, but they couldn't lift it at all.

The head catcher ordered the catcher and the other officials to go down.

Chen Lotian let Ying Sheng go down to Houfeng Mountain.

A dozen people couldn't squeeze into a pit, so a few were inside and a few were outside, tied to the corners of the box with ropes.

After tossing and turning for a while, everyone finally lifted the box out of the pit.

Chen Letian saw that Ying Shengyu Hou went back and arranged for a dozen people to come and help carry the box.

The county said: "Classmate Chen is very thoughtful, if the people you sue are like this, then we really have to keep moving people to and from the county office." ”

Chen Letian said: "Don't worry, my lord, just move my people, you send someone to supervise, plus the people supervise, and the silver will be stable." ”

The county said: "Rest assured is definitely assured." With your identity as Chen Letian alone, I don't need to worry about silver. It's just that in this way, you will have to trouble classmate Chen. ”

"No trouble, case

When that's done, it's okay if you can give us a portion of the dirty silver. Liu Daming said seriously.

Lord County Cheng reacted quickly this time, and immediately said: "This official will definitely apply to Lord County and the imperial court, if this case is successfully completed, you will have the greatest credit!" And put the responsible person on someone else. This is officialdom Tai Chi, don't agree 100% and don't refuse 100%, express the foreshadowing of discussion, in the future, and waiting, the person who speaks and the person in person does not directly take care of themselves, and this officialdom practice is about to arrive at home.

At the same time.

In the other nineteen places in Bazhong City, many people also gathered.

For example, outside the door of Lao Tie's house, the jailer's cell leader, hundreds of people were surrounded at this time. Half an hour ago, Lao Tie was caught in the vegetable market and was directly escorted to the door of the house by the young and vigorous scholars, guarded.

At first, the people didn't dare to say anything to Lao Tie. Except for the occasional fierce glance from young people who say a few words about someone accusing you, everyone doesn't say much. After all, the charges have not been proven, and if it turns out later that they were all falsely accused, it will be troublesome. So they didn't say much for the time being, and only guarded Lao Tie.

"Are you bandits, and what's the difference between doing this and being a bandit?"

"You ignorant people, instigated by others, will have you good-looking in the future!"

The iron cell boss scolded like this, but he only dared to scold like this, what he was thinking about now was the 'things' under the stove in the kitchen at home.

Until the news came, a large iron box of at least tens of thousands of taels was dug up under the pine tree in the backyard of Zhao Dian's family. The people who surrounded the Iron Cell Leader's house finally dared to let go and scold the Iron Cell Leader.

Zhao Dianshi is a lock on the door. If the lock can't be opened, it will be difficult for others inside to catch it.

And Zhao Dianshi's lock is opened, and it will make great progress.

The iron cell boss is a smaller thing, so it's no problem.

The straight-line distance between the iron cell leader's house and the county government is seven miles.

The house of the tax secretary Wang Xiaoyi, six miles away,

Tian Shangjia, deputy commander of the command and embassy, ten miles,

The ordinary jailer of Bazhong City, Wang Shuhong's house, is six miles away from the county government in a straight line.

Catch Zhao Fan's house, four miles away from the county government.

The city gate official Lu Shan's house, three miles away from the county government.

....

The homes of the twenty officials are tightly surrounded by the people, to be precise, each family has a great contribution to the Cao Gang.

Because if the people are only chasing and intercepting them, it will be unlawful. It will give these guilty officials many opportunities to transfer money or abscond with money. Either way, it's very troublesome.

But there is a Cao Gang who has already been arranged and ordered by the two housekeepers. These people play a subtle role in taking the lead and coming up with ideas.

For example, when you come to a house of an official, the helpers will instruct you how many people will block the back door, how many people will block the front door, how many people will wander, and how many people will guard. How many people are still wandering around the streets of the East and West markets outside, trying not to run away.

In this way, things are arranged properly without God knowing.

Unless the county government deliberately connived, none of the 20 officials who were sued by Chen Letian could escape.

Bazhong City is now almost a city-wide mobilization.

At first, it was rumors and the fanning of the Cao Gang that provoked a group of young people. Later, more and more people came to hear the news.

Less than an hour has passed since Congxian Cheng and Chen Letian set off from the county government, and the people who participated in the pursuit and interception of these 20 people have grown to five or six thousand, and almost all of them are young and middle-aged. As for the elderly, either because of their inconvenient legs or because they don't want to ask about the times, they don't come much. But despite this, there are still hundreds of septuagenarians walking slowly on crutches while scolding corrupt officials and corrupt officials for not dying well.

The people are easily instigated, but they are also easily intimidated.

Among these officials, if there are so many people who can speak well, they will definitely be able to make the people dizzy and dare not be tough. When the time comes, it's normal to run away.

Therefore, the most powerful and important part of this operation is still the Cao Gang. They have to undertake the initial spreading of rumors, then fanning the flames, and then ensuring that the flames are not extinguished, that is, even if there are really officials who can speak well, they will not be able to raise the storm, and then they have to raise the flames, which is a very important task for the Cao Gang.
