When I got into the car, the windows on both sides poured in a cool breeze, which was extremely comfortable.

In terms of dimensions, Trois-Rivières City is about the same latitude as the capital of the other world, but in Dongzhou, it is a hilly area with dense forests everywhere.

Every summer, June and July, it is hot, and in winter, there are four months of freezing weather.

When encountering extreme weather, it is often covered with heavy snow, and it is impossible to go out due to heavy snowfall.

The Ming Dynasty used the Yellow Emperor calendar, and the Yellow Emperor calendar has also become a common year all over the world, including some small countries outside the Ming Dynasty, have also adopted the Yellow Emperor calendar.

As for the A.D. used in the other world, almost no one uses it today, and it is said that only a few countries still use the A.D. year.

The Yellow Emperor calendar is also known as the lunar calendar in another world, and now it is June, which is the July to August of the other world, which is the hottest time of the year.

In another world, schools open in September, and in Daming, schools start on the first day of August.

The county lord's mansion was about twenty miles away from the city in a straight line, and there was a road that circled along the low hills, and the actual distance from the city was nearly thirty miles.

Out of the hilly area, you can see the towering chimneys in the distance, and thick white or black smoke is still emitting from the chimney mouth.

White smoke is emitted by power plants, foundries, and black smoke by steel plants.

The city of Trois-Rivières is the confluence of three rivers, with direct access to the lake by cargo ships, and the nearby coal and steel reserves are abundant, with a large fleet of ships sailing back and forth on the river.

Iron and steel plants, iron mines, coal mines, power plants, these four enterprises are almost equivalent to the subordinate enterprises of the Fifth Tractor Plant.

For long-term development, iron ore and coal mines control production and do not sell to the outside world, and eighty percent of steel products are supplied to tractor factories, and only two percent are sold to nearby affiliated enterprises.

Since the coal resources are not very large, eighty percent of the output is sold to tractor factories, and the remaining two percent are not sold to the outside world, but are sold to local residents.

For the sake of long-term local benefits, local governments will not directly sell resources at all.

This is also a lesson from the past, because when Dongzhou was first developed, there were some places that sold local coal and iron ore vigorously.

In the end, it was sold short, and the large head was taken away by the internal affairs office of the imperial court, which was responsible for resource management, and only one land was left in the local area, and later it had to be bought at a high price.

Therefore, in order to reduce the national tax and increase the local tax, all localities have formulated reasonable development plans according to local conditions.

As a local pillar enterprise, Dongzhou No. 5 Tractor Factory is not only a large local profit and tax company, but also supports tens of thousands of people.

It is not so easy for Tangzhou to want a piece of the cake.

Zhou Bei let go of his thoughts for a while, and returned to the problem he was facing.

It can almost be concluded that yesterday's thief was sent by Tang Zhou County or Tang Wangfu.

Whether it is to find evidence of your relationship with Youwei, or to find some technical solutions that you have not applied for, it is very important.

It is not easy to sneak into the farm, so they will go into the city to search for the house, as long as there is a little harvest, they dare to use this to make trouble at the farm, and take the opportunity to find more evidence or technology.

After all, the Zhou family will not be taken into account by them, they only lack a reasonable excuse.

During this time, you must keep a low profile and not be caught by them.

Since the Ming Dynasty occupied almost the whole world, one family was dominant, and all the cities had no walls.

Coming from the southeast, it travels north through the ring road on the outskirts of the city, passing several technical colleges, and then enters the city.

Since there are less than 200,000 people in the entire city, there are not many people on the road.

The road is wide, and the trees on both sides of the road make it even quieter.

When the car arrives at a market, you can see the Carrefour Market, which is one of the main industries of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, with nearly 10,000 branches in the world, and is the largest royal mall in the world.

There is also a building materials market and a vegetable market next to the Carrefour market, and there are more people here.

Zhoubei turned to the north of the city again, drove not far away, there is a park here, next to the park, there is a villa area.

This villa area is mainly inhabited by high-ranking officials of the Fifth Tractor Factory in Dongzhou, which is heavily protected, and the home in Zhoubei City is here.

Zhou Bei drove through a checkpoint, greeted the guards, and drove along the tree-lined two-lane almost to the river, and on the left-hand side was their villa.

And in front of the villa, two police cars were parked......

In the Ming Dynasty, because the law and the government were separated and belonged to different camps, the local powers and responsibilities were more detailed.

The police and the detectives are different departments, the police belong to the management authority of the local government, and the detectives belong to the management authority of the criminal department.

For example, theft, fighting, and city management are all police duties.

But as long as there are serious casualties and homicides, they will be under the control of detectives.

In another world, it's like the classification of the police station and the criminal police team, but in this world, the police station and the criminal police team are not the same system.

This classification is more complicated in some places than in another world, but the authority is clear, and when you figure it out, you will know exactly what is going on and who to find.

More importantly, because they belong to different systems, they also establish competition, antagonism, and mutual supervision, and put an end to collusion.

The army and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are the same, the soldiers belong to the local security army, responsible for the local suppression of bandits, public security, and belong to the jurisdiction of the local government.

The army is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of National Defense, and even if the troops are stationed in the localities, the localities do not have the right to mobilize, and they are rarely seen except in natural and man-made disasters.

With a plan in his heart, Zhou Bei didn't have any thoughts about the appearance of the police, they did things according to the rules, but this theft case would definitely not be detected.

In the living room sat two elderly policemen, both with short hair, and at the top of the staircase, there were two young policemen, but with long hair.

Whether it is age or hairstyle, it is enough to prove that it is mainly two elderly policemen. One of the dark-skinned policemen was none other than Zhou Bei's old friend, Sergeant Liu Zhuang.

Trois-Rivières is not that big, and many people have familiar faces.

Even though Zhoubei's social circle is small and there are not many friends, this sheriff named Liu Zhuang has been in charge of this area for more than ten years.

When he was twelve years old, he hunted a grizzly bear and shocked the entire Three Rivers City, and Liu Zhuang took a photo with him at that time.

Later, he killed nine people at the age of sixteen, and it was not the police who dealt with the matter, but the detective, but Liu Zhuang was also involved in the follow-up at that time.

Since then, although the two are far apart in age, they are very compatible, and often make appointments to go out hunting and exploring together, and the relationship has become closer and closer.

The second brother Zhou Nan is drinking tea with them, and during the busy farming period, only an aunt who is over fifty years old is left here, that is, Liu Qiang's widowed mother to guard the door, and the second brother, a "science and engineering man" who is not good at socializing, can only socialize hard.

When he saw Zhou Bei, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Little four, you're finally here, go to your room and see what you've lost."

Zhou Bei nodded and waved around the four police chiefs. "Because of the despicable and ugly things, I am grateful to all the bad guys."

The Zhou family is also a famous family in Three Rivers City, although Zhou Bei's father is only a technical official, but he enjoys the treatment of five grades, and in the entire Three Rivers City, he can also rank in the top fifty.

The four policemen did not dare to slack off, and they all hugged their fists in return.

The police of the Ming Dynasty were originally called patrol arrest, patrol house is commonly known as the bad hall, and patrol arrest is commonly known as the bad guy.

Now they are only responsible for public security and city management, not for criminal cases, and are responsible for maintaining order in the area every day, looking for cats and dogs, handling some small cases, and running around.

Although they were renamed police stations, policemen, most people still call them bad.

After accepting Liu Zhuang's simple inquiry, the two of them looked at each other, Zhou Bei entered his room on the second floor, pretended to rummage around, and replied: "I rarely come back to live in the house in the city, nothing important, just lost a few sets of clothes." ”

A young fat policeman with a kind expression is holding a notebook in one hand and a pen in the other, ready to record. Smiled and asked, "What clothes?" What are the characteristics? ”

Zhou Bei actually couldn't remember what clothes were in the city, and he didn't even know if he had lost his clothes.

Every time he returned to the city, he mainly attended banquets, and most of the dresses he prepared in the city were prepared.

In order to prevent someone from framing him, he replied according to the strategy discussed with his father: "I don't remember clearly, there may be two or three sets of dresses, all of which are silk and satin dresses, including underwear. Most of my dresses are made to order in Fuxiang and the Weaving House of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and each set should have a mark on it. ”

"Each set of dresses of the Ministry of Internal Affairs can also be worth more than ten or twenty silver coins, and more than ten silver coins are enough to file a case."

"I'll register the material, color, and characteristics of the clothes as a record."

"It's hard to find out this kind of thing, after all, the amount is too small to waste too much police force."

It was just a simple theft, and after the three police officers registered, they took their leave.

This is still saving Zhou Duo's face, if it were an ordinary person, there would not be so many people going to the police, and it would cost to investigate the traces in the house.

Liu Zhuang didn't leave, he was the sheriff of this area, and he was also the leader.

After the three policemen left, he looked at Zhou Nan, who was a little impatient, and said with a smile: "Erlang, if you are in a hurry to go to work, go quickly, we are all so familiar with each other, we don't care about this." ”

Zhou Nan immediately laughed. "We have recently been working on a tensile test on a steering column, and this is at the right time. Sheriff Liu, then I'll go first. Little four, when I am busy for the past few days, I will go back to the farm to accompany you to work. ”

"No hurry, it's too hot during this time, rest for a while. The second sister-in-law is pregnant again, you have to care more about her. ”

Zhou Nan should get down, took the car keys and prepared to go out.

Zhou Bei and Liu Zhuang kept sending him to the door, watching Zhou Nan drive away, Liu Zhuang looked back and forth, and then said in a low voice: "There is something wrong with the limelight in the past two days, last night, a storyteller in Qinglou talked about your marriage with the daughter of the county lord, and then the rumors about Tang Wangfu going to deal with you spread." ”

Zhou Bei and Liu Zhuang kept sending him to the door, watching Zhou Nan drive away, Liu Zhuang looked back and forth, and then said in a low voice: "There is something wrong with the limelight in the past two days, last night, a storyteller in Qinglou talked about your marriage with the daughter of the county lord, and then the rumors about Tang Wangfu going to deal with you spread." ”

The police in this world do not have the power to investigate criminal cases, but they assume the responsibilities of urban management, and they are the first to know about the slightest disturbance in the local area.

It is also for this reason that Zhou Bei had the heart to make friends with Liu Zhuang back then, and now not only has a reversible relationship, but also can be regarded as an alliance of interests, which is worthy of trust.

Zhou Bei pondered for a moment and asked, "Someone is deliberately spreading the news?" ”

"Definitely. Without interests, who would dare to spread the news of the county lord's mansion? ”

"Which storyteller?"

Liu Zhuang said in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive, although Jia Xiuda of Linjiang Lou has a head, he is just laughing at your relationship with the little lady Youwei, and he also praised you for pursuing true love." If you go to trouble him, I am afraid that you are falling for the other party's conspiracy. ”

Zhou Bei smiled and said, "It's good to know that it's Jia Xiuquan, I won't go to him." Is there anyone who spreads the news that is familiar? ”

Liu Zhuang looked into the distance and sighed. "When the storyteller starts, there are people talking about it, and there are all kinds of things to say. If someone really wants to spread it, I'm afraid it will take a few days to spread. ”

Zhou Bei nodded and said, "Yes, this is Yangmou." The other party is more powerful than me, and there is no need to use intrigue and trickery at all. They only need to make a gesture and it will make me stumble and show my flaws. ”

"If you really have a flaw, you need to make it up as soon as possible."

Zhou Bei smiled: "How can I have any flaws? If you really make up for it, you will make mistakes. ”

The token of his relationship with Youwei has been collected into the space. As for the crossing of the line between him and Youwei, the purpose is to make Youwei return to her heart.

Now that she hasn't broken Youwei's body, Youwei is stupid, and she won't tell others......

Youwei didn't break her body, even if Tang Wangfu grabbed some of the little tricks they had in their relationship, it would not affect the relationship with the county lord's mansion and Xue Wangfu.

This is not 50 years ago, not a time when women and men could not socialize.

Nowadays, there are coeducational high schools, and the defense between men and women is not so strict.

Without direct evidence, it will not help to push yourself.

But if you panic, the more you do, the more you make mistakes.

"You really didn't cross the line with Little Lady Youwei? Not afraid of Tang Wangfu inspection? ”

"Don't be afraid. We are affectionate and polite, and we want to indulge, can't the white slaves of the Qinglou have fun? ”

Liu Zhuang laughed and patted Zhou Bei's shoulder. "Lan Cuilou recently bought back ten white slaves from Kezhou Island, and now they are still training, if you are interested, we will go to the top when we are free."

"Let's solve my troubles first, and then talk about it, marriage matters, inheritance, this is much more important than going to be happy."

"Okay." Liu Zhuang nodded and walked to his police car. "I'm still on duty, I'll leave first, I'll call you if there's any news."

Zhou Bei watched him drive away, raised his eyes and looked around, and turned around into the courtyard.

With almost all of Qiu Ming's memories and experiences, Zhou Bei also has the corresponding ability after years of study.

If someone is watching, he will notice it as soon as possible, and if he doesn't find it, it means that there is really none.

This community is the residential area of the leadership of the Fifth Tractor Factory, and even the villa of Yu Cheng, the main person in the city, is also here.

No one was found to be watching, which also shows that the power of Tang Wangfu is not so big, they are in Three Rivers City, so they should be careful.

Liu Zhuang took the initiative to come to the door today, which saved a lot of trouble, but another person needs to be contacted.

Zhou Bei was afraid that his family's phone would be monitored, so he confessed to his aunt on duty and left the villa.
