Di Ying shook her head slightly.

denied: "You are not the person in charge of investigating the case, you are a second-rank official who suddenly ran to find someone else's county order, and it is easy to scare people."

At that time, it is possible for people to exaggerate the facts of the case and make the case more serious, which will be misleading.

And I don't want everyone to know that you are wrapped up with me, so you don't want to stand out about the official business.

Tomorrow, you will take Xu Si and Sun Qi and go around the county to find out the number of wealthy households, including the conduct and conduct of officials. ”

"Who do you think it has to do with them? Do you still think it's possible that they didn't succeed in collecting sheep and started to kill them? But that kind of killing method is not like the handiwork of those people. ”

When Song Wen heard this, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, and he said it.

I feel like I'm pointing straight to the center.

Di Ying bowed slightly.

He paced slowly and said slowly: "If you want to handle a case clearly, in addition to finding the murderer's motive for committing the murder, the second point is the conditions for the murder.

It is how the murderer did it, and the methods and means of killing people in this way.

We now only know what is recorded in the case file: around the scene where Han Lixing was killed, and we have not found any clues left by suspicious people.

But is it not?

Is there any one of them lying? Is anyone lazy? Did you find something that you didn't care? Or is it that in the process of investigating the case, Zhang Khan is not rigorous enough at all?

In any case: there must be something missing.

As a result, we do not know the motive of the murderer, nor do we know how the murderer managed to kill without a trace.

The villagers of Hanjia Village, as well as what we heard along the way, are how Zhang Cambodia is committed to the livelihood of the county, how honest, friendly, and upright.

But I haven't heard a word: he is like a god and impartial in handling cases.

Then, this omission must be related to it.

Let's take a look: Will this county magistrate handle the case? Don't know how to handle cases? Or is it just a confusion about the handling of the case? ”

Song Wen understood.

said with emotion: "Some officials in the DPRK have the talent to be the prime minister of literature and military affairs. But if you want them to solve the case, you can't.

That's why I said: Not all officials are called Di Ying. The rigor of your reasoning, the openness of your thinking, and the rigor of your logic are all unattainable. ”

Di Ying: "...... I finally know why you can befriend everyone. ”

Song Wen: "...... Why are you like this? I really praise you, and every time you don't accept it, you hit me. ”

Di Ying smiled.

smiled and said softly: "I'm just doing my part, even if I think three points more than others, I just don't want to make mistakes." ”

As he spoke, he turned around, stretched, yawned, and said as he walked into the house, "When you're done eating, go back to sleep." ”

Song Wen watched Di Ying enter the house, looked at his figure, and was shown by the candlelight on the window, and there were only three words in his mind: Benfener.

This night, Song Wen even wondered in his dreams: Can he be a person like Di Ying after exhausting his life?

When everyone was washing in the yard in the early morning, Di Ying saw the blue and black under Song Wen's eyes, so he quipped: "Brother Song, this is homesick, so you can't sleep at night?" ”

Song Wen: "......"

He was speechless for a long time before he held back a sentence: "You are finally a little bit like a young man." ”

Di Ying: "......"

He went into the house and ate the buns.

This made Song Wen, who had been hit, feel cloudless.

When eating, he also grabbed steamed buns with Di Ying.

……

On the 28th of May, half an hour in the morning. （8:00）

Zhang Khan, who is nearly half of his age, is handling official business in his official room.

"The rain on the night of the 25th caused damage to some villagers who had not yet had time to harvest the wheat. Early this morning, Xia Guan went to those places to see the villagers' harvest situation.

Some of them were not taken down, and they sprouted in the ground, or they had mold. Some of them were not dried in time, or taken back in time, and such problems also occurred.

May I ask Mr. Zhang: Are those that are sure to be inedible also treated in the same way as in previous years? The county asked.

When Zhang Khan heard the news, on his black and thin face, the two eyebrows that already had white hair were tightly wrinkled together.

Deep, deeper, and longer vertical lines between the eyebrows.

But after a few breaths, it was released again.

"What can be saved is still to be saved as much as possible. If it really can't be saved, they will all be collected and sent to the workshop at the price of three copper plates per catty.

Let the workshop boil it, expose it to the sun, dry it and grind it into powder, and then mix it with other fine chaff, bran, etc., and sell it everywhere at the price of a pound of copper plate. ”

This is different from the way it was done in the past.

The county asked worriedly: "Lord Zhang, in this way, the public bank in our county will not be enough to spend." ”

"Don't worry,"

Zhang Cambodia smiled so that the folds on both sides of the corners of his lips appeared like layers of ripples.

"The 'meat ban' won't last long. Once His Majesty cancels it, the number of poultry and livestock raised by the people who have been thirsty for meat for so long will skyrocket.

Three copper plates were collected and one copper plate was sold, which seemed to be a loss. But the price of those fine chaff, bran, etc. is very low, as long as all the finished products can be sold, then we can't afford to lose.

It just needs the county treasury to be able to support this period of time. ”

When the county heard this, he nodded vigorously.

After nodding, he suggested: "Master Zhang, the old man Tao Changling Tao who returned to his hometown, the mansion is very luxurious. Yesterday, Tao Mansion sent an invitation card, and wanted to invite you to the birthday banquet of Mr. Tao. ”

"Don't go!"

Zhang Cambodia categorically rejected this suggestion.

After shaking the white beard a few times, he said, "The eldest daughter of Old Man Tao is married to ...... The official didn't want to have anything to do with them.

In addition: You keep an eye on the Tao Mansion, his fourteen-year-old fifth grandson is a little too smart, don't let him cause any trouble. ”

"My lord, are you talking about Tao Qing? That kid is only obsessed with things, what kind of trouble can he break through? ”

The county asked in surprise.

Zhang Cambodia hesitated.

He touched his beard, his expression a little tangled.

"It's hard to say. When Mrs. Benguan was shopping for ingredients on the street, she heard the maid ring of Taofu say: Their fifth young master likes to use live birds, live animals, etc., for research.

The official was worried: What about those small creatures today, but in the future? Will it go to people?

Anyway, just keep an eye on it. If there is an increase or decrease in the quantity of live livestock purchased in the Tao Mansion, he shall report it to the official in time.

It is best for you to look for anyone who is good friends with that child and who is of good character, and let him admonish him, and get rid of his habit of studying and studying with living creatures. ”
