Chapter 2143

Murong Danyan thought to himself, no wonder he knew that this dog official in the county could call the wind and rain in Wangqi County and do whatever he wanted. The people in this city were all extremely ignorant and could only let these dog officials bully them. There were tens of thousands of people in the city.

, but was squeezed into such a state by a dog official and dozens of bastards, which is both ridiculous and sad.

Thinking of this, she glanced at the shopkeeper and the short fat man, and thought again, thinking that among the people who stretched their necks outside the magistrate's office that day and waited with excitement to watch the excitement, there were these two old men in front of her. These people

They were all people who were oppressed at first, but before the matter passed, they became aloof from the incident and became stupid and boring spectators, completely forgetting the suffering they had suffered, even their relatives and friends who were imprisoned.

It has to be clean.

While Murong Danyan was thinking about it, he heard the shopkeeper continue to say: "The county magistrate is so proud that he is just waiting for Uncle Ji to arrive and then he will take out all the tens of thousands of crickets he has collected. When Uncle Ji sees this, he will definitely be frightened.

He was so frightened that he might just surrender and win without a fight. Not only could he get a thousand taels of silver from this salt dealer, but he could also greatly increase his prestige. From then on, the people of Wangqi County were more respectful of him.

Obey and never dare to resist at all.

"The more the magistrate thinks about it, the more proud he becomes. The masters, clerks, and catchers under him naturally know his feelings and can't help but compliment him. Although other wealthy businessmen and wealthy households hate the magistrate in their hearts, they don't dare to say anything.

I couldn't help but echo a few words. Amidst the praise, Uncle Ji finally arrived.

"Everyone felt a little strange when they saw that Uncle Ji brought twenty or thirty servants into the Yamen, and also carried several large wooden boxes. If according to the rules, Uncle Ji could only bring a few servants into the Yamen, but today it is

On the official day of the gambling match, Uncle Ji said that the boxes contained things for fighting crickets. The police officer guarding the door knew that the magistrate and Uncle Ji had a big bet today, so he just casually looked through a few large wooden boxes.

So he put these people into the Yamen.

"The magistrate felt a little strange when he saw that Uncle Ji had brought many servants and carried four or five large wooden boxes. After seeing the magistrate, Uncle Ji raised his hands and said, I heard that the magistrate has been buying crickets everywhere these past seven days. I

He had no choice but to send someone to buy some crickets to avoid being at a disadvantage during the betting. When the county magistrate heard what Uncle Ji said, he thought to himself that the salt dealer was not just waiting for death, but was also collecting crickets. But look at his men.

His servants only carried four or five wooden boxes, which could only contain a few thousand crickets at most. However, he had prepared tens of thousands of crickets and still had the upper hand. Thinking of this, the magistrate laughed, thinking that he would definitely do it.

He won a great victory and immediately ordered all his crickets to be moved to the lobby to compete with Uncle Ji's crickets.

"Uncle Ji saw that the magistrate ordered more than twenty large iron cages to be moved out. The cages were full of crickets. They were so densely packed at first glance that it was extremely shocking. Uncle Ji seemed a little surprised when he saw this situation. The magistrate was very proud and said to Ji

The uncle said, if you admit defeat now and hand over the thousand taels of silver obediently, we won't have to waste any time.

"Uncle Ji sighed and said to the magistrate, although he has the upper hand, Ji still wants to give it a try. The magistrate sneered and said, in that case, just take out your crickets and let us have one

One passed! Uncle Ji nodded and immediately ordered his servants to open the box. The servants agreed, then removed the lid of the wooden box and took out a dozen small wooden boxes from each large wooden box.

After opening the small wooden box, everything inside was indeed crickets.

"When the magistrate and others saw this, they all thought that Ji's surname was indeed well prepared, but each wooden box only contained a dozen small wooden boxes, and each small wooden box could only hold ten crickets at most.

, this salt dealer only has a thousand crickets at most. The county magistrate is sure to win this bet, and he can get a thousand taels of silver at his fingertips.

"Just when the magistrate and others were feeling proud, they saw that the servants threw the small wooden box on the ground. The crickets in the box escaped and jumped around on the ground. There was chaos in the lobby. The magistrate is such a bad official.

As the people paid the crickets, all the crickets outside the city were caught. As a result, the value of the crickets skyrocketed, and each cricket could be sold for at least 20 yuan. Some officials, wealthy businessmen and businessmen crowded in the lobby.

They were surprised and happy to see crickets jumping everywhere. In their eyes, these crickets were not insects, but copper coins. Many people secretly caught the crickets and hid them in their arms.

"When the magistrate, the master, the clerk and the catcher saw this, they became suspicious. They didn't know why these servants threw the wooden box containing the crickets on the ground. Could it be that the surnamed Ji knew that his crickets were outnumbered and were gone?

Fighting spirit, his servants also knew that they were bound to lose, so why did they throw the wooden boxes around? Just when the magistrate and others were in shock, they saw the servants taking out the cold steel knives from the box and pointing straight at them.

The magistrate and others rushed over."

When Murong Danyan heard what the shopkeeper said, he clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Wonderful! Wonderful! This good man surnamed Ji is really a smart man. I guess he had already thought about dealing with the magistrate, but the magistrate's office

The guards were tight, and it would be even harder to sneak into the yamen and kill the dog officer than to reach the sky. Unexpectedly, the dog officer wanted to die on his own and became obsessed with cricket fighting. The hero surnamed Ji set up this plan.

Taking the opportunity of a bet with the magistrate, he hid the steel knife in a wooden box and sneaked into the magistrate's yamen with twenty or thirty men. On normal days, the tolerance police stationed in front of the magistrate's yamen would never

Let these heroes in. However, the magistrate was bent on winning a thousand taels of silver. Naturally, the bastards guarding the gate did not dare to offend the magistrate, so they checked randomly and let these heroes into the yamen.

Haha, the magistrate is a thief who brought it upon himself and deserves his bad luck."

The shopkeeper and the short fat man looked at each other, with wry smiles on their faces. After a moment, the shopkeeper continued: "Everyone in the yamen knows that that day is the official day for the gambling match between the magistrate and Uncle Ji. Whether it is official business or a policeman,

Everyone wanted to see this huge gamble, but no one thought that someone would dare to go to the Yamen to cause trouble. So there were dozens of people crowded in the lobby. Apart from the head catcher, there were only four or five public servants waiting in the lobby. The two or three

Ten servants held bright steel knives in their hands and closed the door first. Five or six people guarded the main entrance and the back door. The rest rushed forward waving steel knives and drove the magistrate and others to the center of the hall.

"When the county magistrate saw this situation, he was horrified. He knew that he had been tricked by Uncle Ji, and he regretted it endlessly. The officials, wealthy businessmen, big households and landowners were frightened to death and didn't know what was going on. Only the head catcher was a thief.

This guy is very tough and has a steel knife hanging on his waist. So when he saw Uncle Ji's servants rushing towards him with steel swords, he was not afraid. He immediately drew his sword and rushed forward to fight with the enemy."
