"What the hell is going on?" Jiang Shu was a little puzzled when he heard this.

Since the surname Wu is a corrupt official, why is he kind enough to leave half of it for him?

"That's right," the man in cloth held his breath in his heart, not vomiting or unhappy, and said in silence for a while, "Eight days ago, the county government posted a notice saying that the county magistrate wanted to buy two gold ingots with a lot of money, and the bigger the better......

"Yes, I saw that too—"

"I saw it too—"

……

The onlookers quickly chimed in.

The cloth-clothed man paused, and then continued: "I am a goldsmith in Dongcheng, and I know how to cast gold, and I think that the business of the government must be profitable, so I exchanged all the savings of the family for gold and cast two large gold ingots of one hundred taels. It was only cast last night, and it was sent to the county government today. The county magistrate was very happy when he saw it, praised my craftsmanship, and asked me how much it was, and I said that it should be a big number according to the market price, and since it was for him, he would only charge half of the fee. When he heard this, he asked one of the gold ingots to be returned to me, saying that since only half of the fee was charged, one ingot of gold was worth exactly half. I didn't want to, so he had people out......"

"What kind of reason is this, this is not clear about robbing!" His voice fell, and someone immediately became indignant.

"What kind of virtue is our county master, he said that he bought it with a lot of money, and he can believe it!" Another humane, "I heard that in order to show that we are a clean official, our adult specially hung a couplet in the lobby of the county office, the upper couplet said, 'The left hand collects money and rots the left hand', and the lower couplet says, 'The right hand collects money and rots the right hand'." Guess what happens when someone bribes him? Directly let the silver ticket be stuffed into his boots! ”

"This dog officer ——!" Hou Jiang Shu stepped out of the car, and Qin Sangzhong, who heard it, was even more angry.

"Do you want to get that ingot back?" Jiang Shu glanced sideways at him and asked the man in cloth.

"This ...... Well. The man in the cloth was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slowly.

"Okay, then I'll help you-" Jiang Shu shook off his sentence lightly, turned around and strode towards the gate of the county government, stopped in front of the drum on the side of the door, picked up the drumstick placed on the rack and struck it vigorously.

Soon, the black-lacquered door that had just been locked was pulled open from the inside, and out came a middle-aged servant who was dressed in the same clothes as the two men who had just entered.

He looked at Jiang Shu quietly, seeing that her hair was curled up and her clothes were luxurious, guessing that it must be the relatives of a rich family, and his little eyes rolled: "This little lady, what grievances do you have?" ”

"It's not me, it's him—" Jiang Shu turned and pointed to the cloth-clothed man standing in front of their carriage on the street.

The official looked in the direction of her finger, and his face suddenly changed: "You want to be nosy, don't you?" ”

"If you encounter injustices on the road, you can't look past them, so you naturally have to take care of them-" Without waiting for Jiang Shu to speak, Qin Sangzhong walked up with a calm face.

Then, he pushed him away and raised his hand towards Jiang Shu, signaling her to go in first.

Jiang Shu met his eyes, nodded slightly, didn't hesitate, and walked in.

Qin Sangzhong had a grudge against the Wu County Commander because of what happened three years ago, and he had the intention to rectify him, and then stepped into the gate of the county government.

"Hey, you can't come in, you can't come in, stop, stop—" The official steadied himself, and when he saw that the two had already entered the door, he hurriedly chased after them.

Due to the urgency of the chase, there was no time to close the door, and the cloth-clothed man with the gold ingot in his hand also walked in smoothly.
