"I'm in the lower district. I'd like to pay my respects to Mr. Liu." A young man wearing a green silk scarf and plain robes walked into the room and said respectfully.
"Oh yeah?" Liu Jing was startled when he heard this, then he laughed.
Ou Ye couldn't help but be confused. There was nothing wrong with his name. He didn't know why Liu Jing was laughing, but unfortunately he didn't dare to ask.
Su Rong bowed again and said: "I am a brother of the District Yuanbo clan. Brother Cong has an impatient personality and has made a big mistake. Now he is severely punished by the prince. Brother Cong feels deep regret. However, he was severely injured and imprisoned in prison. He cannot be kissed.
Come, so I ordered you to do the work for me and apologize to Mr. Liu."
Liu Jing secretly shook his head. He didn't believe a word of this. If Ou Xiong was so flexible and flexible, then he would not be Ou Xiong. It is estimated that Ou Xiong may not even know about Ou Ye's visit this time.
At this time, Ou Ye took out a small silk bag from his arms, placed his hands in front of Liu Jing, and said, "This is brother Cong's apology. Please accept it with your smile."
Liu Jing took it and saw that there were three golden cakes inside, each weighing a pound and worth almost 40,000 yuan. He asked, "Is this the medical expenses for Xie Shi?"
Ou Ye shook his head and said: "Thank you for Shi's medical expenses. I have personally come to hand it over to him. This is an apology specially prepared for Liu Jun."
Liu Jing frowned. There are so many people in the market, how can there be any secrets? If he accepts the gold cake, there will be rumors in the market. Reputation is his biggest reliance, how can he go for a mere tens of thousands of dollars?
And it won't do anything to damage your reputation, even if it's ten times or a hundred times more.
He threw the small bag back into District Ye's arms and Liu Jing said: "I am very courageous. I dare to openly bribe officials in a busy place. This is my first offender. I won't argue with you this time. I will retire."
Get off."
Ou Ye hurriedly explained: "Liu Jun, this is not a bribe..."
"Back off!" Liu Jing scolded with raised eyebrows.
"Nuo." Seeing Liu Jing getting angry, Ou Ye hurriedly put away the gold bag and ran away in confusion.
"Idiot." Liu Jing cursed in his heart. This is the result of only focusing on force and not cultivating culture. His actions are too crude. No wonder the Changsha nobles look down on the Ou family. In such a large group, there is not even one person who can stand on the stage.
Not long after Ou Ye left, three young men asked to see him. They were appointed by Zhu'a.
Liu Jing paid special attention to the leader of the three. He was a young man about sixteen or seventeen years old, more than seven feet tall, with a rather outstanding appearance, especially a pair of phoenix eyes, which was impressive at first sight.
What's even more rare is that although he appeared a little nervous, he didn't flinch. In comparison, the other two teenagers were much inferior.
When introducing himself, his name "Liu Zhu" aroused Liu Jing's curiosity. The Liu surname is one of the leading wealthy families in Linxiang. Even if the family encounters changes, there will always be family members to help him. How could he be reduced to an orphan?
Liu Zhu explained: "Reporting to Liu Jun, the villain is not a native of Linxiang, but a native of Nanyang County. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he fled south with his family and settled in Linxiang. Later, both his parents died, and I was young and had no food or clothing.
, it’s all thanks to the help of my elder brother that I can survive.”
Liu Jing suddenly said: "I didn't expect that you are from Nanyang, the imperial hometown. Do you know who your ancestor is?"
Liu Zhu replied: "When my father passed away, I was still young. I don't know the details. I only know that he was the queen of Changsha."
Liu Dingding nodded and said: "Then we have the same ancestors." After a pause, he added: "You are the eldest son of the Liu family. Although you have been lost in the world, you should not be willing to fall down and call yourself a villain at every turn. How can you be a man?
What you did?"
Liu Zhu couldn't help but be moved, and bowed deeply: "What Liu Jun taught me, little... will definitely remember Liu Jun's words from now on."
Liu Jing nodded and continued: "Brother Zhu, have you told me why I'm looking for you?"
"Brother said it." Liu Zhu nodded.
Liu Jingdao: "Then please introduce it to me."
Liu Zhu sorted out his thoughts and said: "Linxiang has three cities in the east, south and west, and each city has cheaters. Because the west city is the largest, it also has the most cheaters. There are six people in total, and each cheater has several people under his command.
It ranges from up to ten people.”
"The chief thieves are all long-time thieves. They no longer take action personally, but let their thieves do it for them. Most of them have other identities to hide, either as merchants, or managing land, and some of them are officials. Not only do their neighbors not know
, even their family members may not know their identities." As Zhu A's right-hand assistant, Liu Zhu knew so clearly because he had many contacts with various gangsters.
Liu Jingxin thought that this was exactly the same as the beggars in later generations controlled the beggars while he lived in a mansion and drove a luxury car.
Finding that Liu Zhu spoke clearly and with great ideas, Liu Jing tried his best and said: "I intend to crack down on theft, so that the drums and drums in the city will stop, the thieves will disappear, and the people will be peaceful and worry-free. How can I catch them all?"
Liu Zhu pondered for a moment and replied: "Liu Jun should first arrest the thief leader privately. The thief leader has family assets and has lost his spirit. If he is arrested by the officials, he will not dare to resist. By then, as long as Liu Jun will wait for him to catch him
If you take it lightly, the chief thief will betray his subordinates in order to survive."
"Good." Liu Jing clapped his hands and smiled, with a love for talent in his heart, and said: "You have such wisdom, which is very rare. It would be a pity to continue to wander around in the world."
"Liu Jun..." Liu Zhu's heart suddenly beat rapidly. Because he is the eldest son of the Liu family, he is different from other ignorant young men under Zhu A. He has a strong desire to change the status quo and is unwilling to live in a miserable life in the market.
Liu Jing could see Liu Zhu's ready-to-move heart, and smiled and made a promise: "If the theft can be solved, you will be considered to have made a great contribution. How can you not be rewarded for your merits? Once this matter is over, you can come to the market to work as an official.
Just listen to me. As for Brother Zhu, I believe he won't refuse."
Liu Zhufeng's eyes were wide open and he was ecstatic, and he bowed and said: "Thank you very much, Mr. Liu, for your support, thank you very much, Mr. Liu for your support..."
The other two teenagers looked at Liu Zhu with envy. It was gratifying to work as an official in the market, but what they envied most was being able to follow Liu Jing. They were thinking at this moment, why don't my surname be Liu?
The crackdown on theft is not limited to the city, and it may not be possible to rely on city officials alone, so Liu Jing sent people to the thieves Cao to invite him to come over for discussion.
The result was quite unexpected for Liu Jing's invitation, but he still put down what he was doing without hesitation and hurried all the way to the property market.
Liu Jing explained his intention and was eager to achieve results. If he could wipe out all the thieves in the city, he would also gain great benefits.
The two discussed behind closed doors for a long time, and Liu Zhu left with excitement on his face.
In the evening, under the guidance of Liu Zhu, the thief Cao Li successfully captured Wang Wei, the thief chief, on the outskirts of Linxiang City. He coerced and lured him into submission. Then, in his name, he invited all the thief chiefs to come to his home to gather together, and then all the thief chiefs were arrested.
