，

One of them shouted in the crowd, "We've all been working in the crowd, so why don't you let us take it out." ”

When Lorraine saw those people, he did not come forward and saluted. Instead, he hid far away in the darkness. lest I see his face. It can be seen how weak their hearts are. Immediately frowned. Then he sneered, and said, "Yes, I haven't heard of the servant who keeps the things in the master's house with a shovel and a pryer?"

He turned his head to look at the janissaries beside him, and said, "Have you heard of it?"

The soldiers of the Praetorian Guard immediately burst out laughing and exclaimed, "No, my lord. ”

Someone in the crowd shouted, "No, we're coming back from work and stopping by to get it." ”

"Yes, yes. ”

"That's right. ”

"That's it. ”

The others next to him also chimed in.

Lorraine shrugged down and laughed out loud.

He pointed at the other party and laughed for a long time, then he relieved himself and said, "Okay, okay, even if you are reasonable, why are you pushing so many carts? I have never heard of doing any work and pulling the cart yourself." ”

The men looked at each other, and one of them was quick to react, and shouted: "That baron owes us wages, hundreds of pounds of grain, of course he has to push a cart." ”

The Praetorian Guards all burst into laughter. Portoche couldn't help but "Haha, laugh." said admirably: "These guys are really smart"

These ruffians used to be rampant in the countryside, looking at the soldiers in front of them who laughed at them to their heart's content, they were a little frightened, and they felt that their little self-esteem was damaged, and they were a little ashamed and angry, but the temptation of those goods was real, and until the end, these scavengers like coyotes would not give up.

Someone in the crowd shouted: "Are you not allowed to let in? We are not allowed to take our own things, aren't you bullying the common people?"

Lorraine suddenly shouted, "Do you know what crime the baron has committed? Do you know who we are? Do you know that you have broken the law?"

At this moment, the ruffians on the opposite side were stunned, they only knew that the baron had been arrested, and only a few people were guarding this place.

And knowing these two items is enough for them.

Lorraine shouted angrily: "There are definitely the baron's henchmen here, brothers, take them all for me"

Only a command was heard, and from behind and to the left and right of the villagers of the hundred or so people, three hundred Praetorian Guard soldiers who had quietly copied the other party's rear road rushed out of the darkness.

While waving the swords in their hands, they shouted: "Capture it obediently, otherwise you will be ordered to cut your earl, and if you resist, you will not be killed."

Looking at the hundreds of heavily armed soldiers, these people panicked, screaming and running around. The organic spirit saw that it was tightly surrounded. At that time, he hugged his head and squatted on the ground obediently.

The Praetorian Guard soldiers were unarmed, but with their fists and clubs, they quickly subdued the group, tied them to the ground like pigs, and tied them up.

The brave ones have already cried, and some people shouted: "Wronged, we really came to take our own things." ”

"I was forced, I didn't do anything. ”

"I'm a good person. ”

Lorraine shook his head, Lorraine actually doesn't take these people's behavior seriously, if these people don't do this, then they are lacking in heart, they just hit their own hands, count them unlucky.

Lorraine, in particular, knew that the thugs under Baron Peter Anker had done a lot of bad things. Especially after Baron Peter Anke became the sheriff in Freetown, he bullied men and women, raped and robbed, and these people have been doing it, and they have a lot of lives in their hands.

And that's understandable, it's one after all. The world ruled by the aristocracy, the law is such a thing. It's just that the nobles and lords used it to manage the dead people below.

A hereditary nobleman really broke the law, so what, it's just a fine of three glasses of wine. The laws of the empire expressly stated. If it is not treason, the nobles do not have the death penalty, they are imprisoned. It is also a luxurious presidential suite, with a daily steak course.

Lorraine knew she couldn't handle such a time-consuming and complicated case, and Catherine could, but neither she nor Lorraine had the time, this. The trial of the case, from finding the victim, collecting evidence, arresting and interrogating the co-defendant, to the execution of the sentence, will take at least half a year

Space.

A hereditary baron is involved, and the conviction finally needs to be recognized by the heraldic court of the city of Ruman. Again and again, this case will not be closed within a year.

What's more, Lorraine herself has no right to do this, this is not his province of Naian, Lorraine and Catherine can only leave this to the magistrate.

Lorraine knew that she could not handle such a time-consuming and complicated case, and she had no right to do so, so she simply left it to the magistrate. But I didn't expect that these people hit the muzzle of the gun themselves, so how can there be any reason to let it go.

There are still two beautiful women in the family who have been whitewashed, waiting for themselves, if they are dissatisfied, they will be offended. Therefore, Lorraine was not willing to waste time with these scoundrels in this hellish place.

Lorraine said to Portocci: "I'll leave it to you, carefully screen it, those ordinary people who have a hot brain to take advantage of it, teach it and put it back, and the rest related to this damn baron will be taken down first and the charges will be collected." ”

Bo Feiqi and their Praetorian Guards have recently become addicted to matters that do not belong to their work, which is much more interesting than their duty every day in Ruman City, and he nodded and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, don't worry, we can always keep in mind your instructions, and never wronged a good person, nor let a bad person go." Especially never let go of a bad person. ”

Lorraine laughed, patted Portoche on the shoulder and said, "I'm very optimistic about you." ”

"Master Xie complimented. ”

The senior officials of Freetown, who were in the city hall in Freetown to urgently discuss countermeasures, received detailed information about Lorraine's actions in the second half of the night.

These officials, who were originally as anxious as ants on a hot pot, all of them had their eyes lit up when they heard this.

One person also shouted excitedly: "I remember." Our young governor is known as the Friend of Hades. ”

The guys were immediately happy. Said loudly: "There is a way, there is a way." ”

The wind in this world is the most powerful, not a hurricane, not a typhoon, not a tornado, and a pillow wind, how many heroes who are unique for a while come to the front of this kind of wind, even our sage Comrade Kong Laoer, in order to pull relations and run for office. Isn't it to play a show to see "Nanzi" and play ambiguous, and take the lady route?

But when he came back, he said again: "Only people and women are difficult to raise." ”

It can be seen that the pillow wind is not so easy to blow, and if you want the leader's honey to say good things for you, this cost is not cheap.

Once again, the officials in Freetown did not want to prevent the heat and cooled down, and began to work overtime without pay and consciously and voluntarily. Meetings were held overnight.

The city lord of Freetown knew that such a major event had happened, and his political life had come to an end. Now he is sure to be dismissed.

It is said that the officers of the task force sent by the Governor to deal with this case are now on their way.

His old man is now thinking of breaking the jar, and he no longer cares about the affairs in Freetown, and now he is just trying to free his own property.

He has been the lord of Freetown for seven years, from his brother-in-law to the housekeeper's dog, all of them are rich and flowing.

Therefore, it is necessary to convert his black property into gray property and wash it into legal property as much as possible before his responsibility is traced.

Otherwise, with the strict laws of the empire, just the crime of unknown origin of a huge amount of wealth would be enough to make him bankrupt and exiled for 3,000 miles.

The city lord of the Fried Sect didn't have much time here, and he had earned this huge family fortune in the past few years. They all need to move back to their hometowns, and the cake in the Freetown area has been divided between the city lord and these officials, and the new city lord will take the knife first in order to reshuffle the cards, let his brother-in-law take the throne, and hold the money for himself.

Rather than being voluntarily sold at a low price at that time, or being confiscated under the pretext of being detained for pornography, gambling and drugs, it is better to deal with it vigorously while he is still the city lord in the past few days.

So now the city lord of Freetown is busy going around, and he doesn't have time to care about the following officials, and he doesn't want to care, and he doesn't even bother to take care of the eldest princess and his party, anyway, I'm going back to my hometown, who do I love.

The following officials no longer cared about him as a boss, and when the group of people gave up the grievances formed by years of open and secret fighting, and sat here to brainstorm and discuss countermeasures, no one thought of going to the city lord.

Moreover, what they are discussing now. It costs a lot of money to get it, and if you want Lorraine, the governor who has been appointed, to give these magistrates who have nothing to do with Lorraine to say good things to Catherine, you know that it will cost a lot of money. How could Lorraine not take advantage of this opportunity to make a big splash?

But for the sake of his official position, he has to spend a lot of money, otherwise the commissioner will definitely serve them all in one pot.

It has been 2 years, not to mention that there are other superiors, their brothers-in-law, second mothers, and so on. It also needs to be taken care of.

The alternates stared at the real shortage like a hungry dog looking at chicken bones. The eyes that couldn't be stared at were dripping blood.

Now that such a thing has happened, the Governor will be more than happy to make more space for his own people.

The city lord is like this now, and he will definitely not pay for it, and these people will leave the city lord aside.

It is foreseeable that if this matter is to be put to rest, it will be a lot of money, so big that these officials will have to put together the money. So big that everyone had to scream in pain like a tooth extraction for more than a year,,

And having money is only the first problem.

You must know that from ancient times to the present, up and down for 5,000 years, no matter where you are, gift-giving is a university question.

Can you give it away, how can you give it out, and can you feel comfortable giving it to the person who receives it? These are all very profound and profound knowledge.

For example, when I was in the Qing Dynasty and gave gifts to various middle halls, it had to be a painting and a written character by others. No matter how much it is, buy it and send it over, revealing that it is called an elegance.

Bei, that Bei brother in Italy, then you have to send a room of undressed beauties.

But fortunately, all of these people have become officials. It belongs to the profession of the common people after the second turn, or even after the third turn, such as this skill is a compulsory skill for these people, and it is not difficult to play.

And judging from Lorraine's table, this lord is not an egg without sewing, and the master of oil and salt does not enter. This gift is not to worry about not being able to give it out, but you must know that Lord Lorraine entered Almohad, and the sky is three feet high, and the ground is seven points thin, and now his horizons are broadened, and he is not a figure that can be fooled by three walnuts and two dates.

These officials had bought detailed information from those Praetorian Guards, and they knew very well about Lorraine's watch in Baron Peter Anker's estate, and for tens of thousands of gold coins, this lord only pouted, and regarded it as money, but how much money could be put in Lorraine's eyes

What they discussed was mainly to keep their official positions, how much money they were worth, but fortunately, the value of these positions can also be measured by money, always

The price list of the official position that Leo made is not bad at all in this respect, and it is higher than that price, even if he keeps his official position, he also loses.

After everyone reached a consensus, Xun took action, this large amount of money, it takes a lot of effort to put together, not to mention that they can't directly throw a few large boxes of gold in front of Lorraine, that's not a gift, that's an insult, Lord Lorraine is angry, he will definitely raid the house first, and then receive the gift.

And it is not difficult to collect those equivalent gifts in Freetown

Not only Lorraine, but also the people around Lorraine cannot be ignored, starting with Leo and Vera. Adele, Melina, including Carter, their interests and hobbies are also well understood, and then targeted gifts, so that everyone is satisfied, and they can rest assured.

The crowd has been discussing one. Overnight, that's what an agreement can be considered an agreement.

Lorraine, all of them, slept together. Lord Lorraine studied the philosophical issues of the middle of the night because of the study and implementation of the spirit of Guan Erye's night reading Spring and Autumn Period, and even stayed in bed with Catherine until about ten o'clock before getting up.

The restaurant was faced, and Vera was still haunted by last night's harvest, and even the meal was less.

Leo comforted Vera on the side: "Compared to the thieves who spent so much effort to copy, there are already a lot. It's all the same as picking it up for nothing. ”

Melina has opened a lot of eyes for two days in a row, and she is looking forward to Leo's next activities, and it is difficult to get good to Leo.

Adele hummed a song, looking relaxed and happy, holding a teacup and flipping through a book on the table. Lorraine glanced at it, and sure enough, it was another favorite of rotten girls.

Adele saw Lorraine and hurriedly hid the book, as if she was afraid that he would really be influenced by the book and change her aesthetic orientation.

Lorraine rolled her eyes, then turned and sat down at the table.

As soon as he sat down, Carter walked in with a strange look and said, "Sister Qiqi, there are officials from Freetown outside who want to see him." ”

Catherine waved her hand impatiently and said, "No, tell them, I don't want to trouble the place and cancel a qiē event." ”

Carter smiled bitterly and said, "I told him so, but, he said, they came to invite Lord Lorraine to the Maple Leaf Danlin Fellowship Association." ”

Lorraine, Catherine, and Adele were stunned for a moment.

Catherine snorted coldly and said, "These ghosts, they really make excuses, just give gifts, what kind of classmates." ”

Leo's ears immediately stood up, and he was extremely sensitive and said, "Here comes the gift-giver?"

Adele, giggles. smiled, kicked Lorraine under the table, and said, "Hey, Nicole and I are also from Maple Leaf Danlin, why don't they know us?"

Vera swallowed hard what was in her mouth, and said vaguely: "Contains the forehead, well, it's also Fengye" Danlin's. ”

Leo raised his hand and said, "I, I, I'm also from Maple Leaf Danlin, and so is Melina." We're all going. ”

Lorraine smiled and said, "Okay, okay, we're all Mechanic Ye Danlin, let's go together." I'd like to see how generous these people are. ”

Ah Huan'er stretched her waist, smiled sweetly at Lorraine, and said, "Sister Ben doesn't want to deal with them, I just made up for sleep today." ”

Catherine also said, "Whatever you want, but don't fool around with me." ”

Leo raised his fist at the moment and said with determination: "Don't worry, old lady, I will definitely take the boss to death." ”

Lorraine stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's also enjoy the feeling of being slapped on the back." ”

Lorraine and his party bared their fangs and rushed straight to the reception room outside.

The guards pushed open the door, and Leo jumped in first.

Several officials waiting here hurriedly came over to salute Leo, Leo waved his hand, and then asked anxiously: "I am also from Maple Leaf Danlin, you have a class reunion, can I go?"

These several. Looking at each other, one of the people in front of them hurriedly said, "I can become a classmate with His Highness." That is the glory of all our Maple Leaf Danlin people, please Your Highness must appreciate it today, if you don't see it, it will be the biggest loss in our lives for all the Maple Leaf Danlin graduates in Freetown City. ”

Lorraine almost didn't vomit when he heard it, Leo enjoyed it very much, squinted his eyes, and couldn't find the north with joy" said: "Alas, since you have all said so, I will reluctantly agree to you." ”

In order to immediately show a surprised expression, he said in a loud voice: "Your Highness Xie, Your Highness Xie, your presence is the honor of our Frieds for a lifetime." ”

Lorraine watched from the side, and suddenly sighed in his heart that his good life was coming, if it weren't for Vera's stupid girl, if it wasn't for Leice, if it wasn't for Eaves Ye Danlin, if it weren't for Nicole and Dale, Lorraine estimated that he had mixed well in his life, and just like the previous Freetown official, he casually became an official, raised two second wives, held some money, was servile, and grovelled for financial power.

Lorraine looked at the forty-something man in front of her. The Freetown official, with a ruddy face and a standard official portrait, asked, "I don't know your surname?"

The officer hurriedly bowed to Lorraine. "Don't dare, in Lower Blide, it's the public works officer of Freetown." ”

Lorraine nodded and said, "Oh, Lord Blide, please lead the way."

Blide said: "Your Highness, please, your Excellency, please." ”

Leo laughed, then straightened his stomach and walked majestically to the door.

When he arrived at the door, he suddenly remembered something, then patted his head, put on a straight face, and said to those officials: "By the way, I forgot to remind you of a very strict thing." (To be continued)
