Li Baiyi nodded with satisfaction: "I saw it when I came, you did a good job, and the official also trusts the two of you very much, so he will let you do things." ”

"I believe that the two of you will not live up to the hopes of this official, I am right."

Gongsun Long's eyes lit up suddenly, and he said with a touched face: "To be so trusted by adults, the efforts of the two of us are not in vain." ”

Li Baiyi took out a few taels of silver from his pocket, handed them to the two of them, and said with some reluctance: "This is the money I personally gave you to buy wine, you save some flowers, the silver in this county is not blown by the wind, and my father will not give me money now." ”

"This money is still saved by Ben Shao's food and clothing on weekdays, although it is not much, but it can be regarded as expressing the county's gratitude to the two for their hard work."

When Gongsun Long and the head catcher heard this, they hurriedly excused themselves and said, "Lord Li, we can't take your money, isn't that tormenting us." ”

"My lord, you can make the dedication of the county better and better, it's too late for me to be grateful, how can I collect your money again, not to mention that the money given to us by the imperial court is enough for us to spend, and we don't dare to accept this money."

When Li Baiyi heard this, his face became serious, and he stared at the two of them and said, "You must collect this money, I am not giving it to you, but so that you can better serve the people, you know." ”

As soon as these words came out, Gongsun Long and the two looked at each other, and they were very moved, but in the end they waved their hands at Li Baiyi.

"My lord, you better take back this money, we can't take this money from you, if we collect this money, then we don't deserve to sit in this position."

Li Baiyi said resolutely: "That's not good, you have to accept this money, if anyone doesn't accept it, I will suspend someone's post for three days." ”

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were immediately entangled, and finally accepted the money: "My lord is so loving, the lower officials will sacrifice their lives to repay them." ”

The two of them said with serious faces.

Li Baiyi nodded with satisfaction and said, "The official believes in your guarantee, it must be from the heart, with you here to watch the dedication of the county for the official, the official is most at ease." ”

Seeing that Gongsun Long and the head catcher were so moved that their eyes were red, they sighed innocently, they didn't expect it to be so easy for Li Baiyi to convince people's hearts, just took out a little money and did it.

These two people don't seem to be people who have a little bit of money, could it be that this guy Li Baiyi is really a monster, and he can be so convincing casually.

Li Baiyi saw that the heat was almost over, and it was time to get down to business, so he immediately said to the two: "Two, we've almost talked about digressions, now let's talk about things at work." ”

Gongsun Long both nodded, their expressions gradually became serious, and they sat precariously listening to Li Baiyi's speech.

"Although Zhang Ergou, whom I interrogated this time, made it easy for him to confess, this is just the beginning."

Gongsun Long said suspiciously: "Didn't the interrogation have been completed, is there anything suspicious that has not been clarified?" ”

Li Baiyi shook his head: "The matter of Zhang Ergou himself has been investigated, but don't forget, Zhang Ergou's wife, that is a dangerous person involved in the abduction and trafficking of women and children, she is dead, but the matter is not over yet." ”

"This Zhang Ergou's house is surrounded by walls, and it doesn't look like a family that often has extra money."

"So, where did his wife's money go all these years?"

"The whereabouts of the silver is a problem, in addition to this, judging from everyone's description, this woman is probably not as illiterate as Zhang Ergou said, otherwise she would not have worked in the organization of abducting women and children for so many years."

"Zhang Ergou's wife is likely to be a cultural person, although she only knows a few words, but this kind of person also has brains, and she knows that she is doing this kind of thing with her head."

Gongsun Long nodded and pondered, "What the Lord means is that she will leave a way back for herself. ”

Li Baiyi nodded and said with a smile: "It seems that Lord Gongsun understands that this woman is likely to have left an account book for herself, for example, where the money she earned from abducting and selling women and children goes, she has a number." ”

The head catcher on the side suddenly said with admiration: "My lord, you think really comprehensively, if you hadn't reminded you, the villain might have skipped this person directly." ”

"When we investigated before, we didn't have a clue at all, and the few people we found who might provide clues were also poisoned by Li Haonan one after another."

Li Baiyi frowned: "Is this Li Haonan so vicious, I knew that I should have beaten him a few more times in the hook bar." ”

"By the way, after you find the account book, copy a few more copies, don't be found by someone with a heart, and if you lose the account book at that time, it will be very bad for us to investigate this case."

"In addition to this, we can't startle the snake yet, this case is intertwined, I don't know when and to what point it will be dug up, but it is conceivable that there must be people with deep backgrounds behind this case."

Gongsun Long nodded: "What my lord said is that if this is not the case, such a case would not have happened here in the capital, after all, this is at the feet of the Son of Heaven." ”

Li Baiyi glanced at him and said with a smile: "What's wrong with the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are still so many moths under the feet of the Son of Heaven, and their strength is not small." ”

"There's a word called dark under the lights, I don't know if you've heard of it."

Gongsun Long shook his head and looked at the head catcher on the side: "Have you heard of it?" ”

The head catcher also shook his head and looked at Li Baiyi with a confused expression: "My lord, what does this word mean?" ”

Li Baiyi looked left and right, and said helplessly: "I originally wanted to let you see is believing, but now if you don't light the lamp, forget it, the light is dark, as the name suggests, it is the darkest under the lamp." ”

"Think about it, under the lit candle, because the candle flame doesn't shine at all, so that it's the darkest there."

"Just like this case of abduction of women and children, I believe there must be other places, but when this kind of thing happens in the capital, the people who abduct and sell it are all people from around the capital."

"Which one is not related to the capital, but this kind of case can still happen, and it has been concealed until now."

"This shows that the background behind this case must be more terrifying than we imagined."

Gongsun Long nodded and said, "What the adults said is that the villains understand." ”

Li Baiyi immediately thought of a few more things that needed to be instructed, and explained them to the two, and both of them felt that they had benefited a lot.

The innocent who was waiting nearby also felt that he couldn't see through Li Baiyi more and more.

This guy really knows everything, how does his head look like, shouldn't he really be a goblin?
