"Sir, there are only two shop assistants and three children in the entire dental shop. I have already checked that the procedures for the three children are complete."
Qu Tou walked up to Wang Lidong with a sullen face and reported in a low voice.
Wang Lidong glanced at the shopkeeper and saw a hint of pride on the little old man's lips.
He was really cautious enough. When he saw what happened to Qian Yapo, he immediately responded. No wonder this dental shop has been able to last for hundreds of years.
"Shopkeeper Shun, where are the dental strips from your dental shop? Take them out for my officer to check?"
The toothpaste is the business license of a dental merchant or dental shop. Tooth merchants must apply to the government for approval before they can operate.
Lingtie Yahang has a voucher book issued by the official. Every month, the address, name, route, trade name, goods, and quantity of the merchants and shipowners are recorded in the book, and sent to the government for verification. It also helps the government check whether the merchants pay taxes.
The dental card is valid for one year. If you want to continue operating after the expiration, you need to go to the Yamen to exchange the dental card and pay the replacement price of thirty taels of silver.
After hearing Wang Lidong's words, the little old man's expression suddenly changed, and dense cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Yaxing hasn’t changed its posts in decades.
Their boss was a very famous local squire, so officials would never investigate such trivial matters.
As time went by, I forgot about it.
Seeing the shopkeeper's expression, Wang Lidong sneered:
"Why, didn't you understand what I said?"
The little old man hurriedly said:
"Mr. Lin, there must be dental stickers, but they are not in the store at the moment. I will send someone back to pick them up immediately."
Wang Lidong sneered:
"Before I went out, I checked specifically and found that your dental practice has not changed its post for thirty-eight years.
Shun Haode, you are so brave, you dare to buy and sell people privately.
Capt. Qu, search this tooth shop and take all the relevant people back."
Before he came out, he asked someone to check the dental clinics' renewal situation in recent years. There were 6 dental clinics in the entire county, but only two of them changed their dental clinics every year, including Qian Yapo's dental clinic.
In fact, the dental shop found nothing wrong with him and had a good attitude. After Wang Lidong prepared to fine him a small amount, he let him go.
"Mr. Lin, it's not that we don't change posts, it's that there was no one in the Yamen a while ago.
Let's remember the trip..."
It was so noisy that Wang Lidong immediately tapped the guy’s dumb hole.
"Captain Qu, I will take the prisoner back to the Yamen first. Remember to pack up all the documents and take them back to the Yamen."
After Qu Baotou heard this, he laughed so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes.
Confiscation of homes has always been a big mistake. Sure enough, my decision was right. If I were still in the escort agency, how could such a good thing happen?
He hurriedly called to his men and asked them to escort all the prisoners in Yahang and follow the young escort back to the Yamen.
Wang Lidong had just started teething when he saw the street in front of the door full of passers-by.
At this time, two government officials ran out from behind the team and immediately cleared a passage.
The passers-by were also very cooperative. After all, the people of Sihai Kingdom naturally have a kind of respect for officials.
"This person is the new county magistrate. He is not even twenty years old, right?"
"It should be about the same, but why is this guy so brave and arrests the shopkeeper of Shun Kee Ya Store?"
"Haha, there's a good show to watch."
"I think it won't be long before Shopkeeper Shun will put it back.
As far as our county government is concerned, the largest official is the county magistrate, who is only in the seventh rank, but the second son of the Shun family is a Beijing official, and I heard that he still manages the job of being an official."
"It's just a formality, unless the new county magistrate is a fool.
I remember it was the same one year, when a newly appointed county magistrate sealed the Shun family’s rice shop.
But within two days, I went to Mipu in person and took off the seal, and was sent to Yunnan and Guizhou not long after."
"I heard that all the dental shops in our county were raided today."
"Well done, why are there so many people selling their children in our county?
But these dental shops send many children to Rongcheng every one or two months, so who would believe it?"
"Speak softly. If someone from Yaxing hears it, you will feel better."
...
Just as Wang Lidong was escorting people to the gate of the Yamen, he heard someone shouting in the distance:
"Sir, help me, please help me, my lord."
He stopped and followed the crowd, and saw a government servant running toward the government office in a panic.
When they got closer, they saw clearly the person coming, Li Dagen, who was the only yamen servant who stayed at the county yamen when Wang Lidong arrived at the county yamen on the first day.
Wang Lidong said strangely.
"Da Gen, what are you doing in such a panic? Whose life are you trying to save?"
When Li Dagen saw Wang Lidong, he immediately showed surprise.
Although I don't know how high Lin Xiancheng's martial arts is, it is definitely not too bad.
He learned the lesson the first time they met.
Moreover, many people in the current yamen came from the Fuwei Escort Agency.
When everyone talked about who was the best martial artist in the Yamen, they all said that this gentleman had the best martial arts skills.
"Mr. Lin and Mr. Jin were beaten by a nurse inside the Qian Hague Bank when they were on business. Now they are still trapped in the Hague Bank. Their shopkeeper said that if they want someone, please go there in person."
Oh, I finally waited for this chicken.
Wang Lidong has been in office for almost a week, and he is trying to find a reason to let the gentry and ordinary people in Linhai County see his methods.
If you are really sleepy, you will have a pillow.
After giving some instructions to the policemen behind him, Wang Lidong followed Li Dagen and walked towards Qian Hague.
"Mr. Lin, the place in front of which there are many people is the Qian Hague Bank."
Wang Lidong nodded.
He found that there were a lot of idle people in Linhai County, and they especially liked to watch the fun.
This situation is a bit abnormal. We are in the Ming Dynasty now. If people don’t work, how will they get money to eat?
It looks like I need to have someone check it out after I get back.
"Everyone give way. Mr. County Yamen Lin is here. Please give way."
However, the passers-by here seemed not to be afraid of the Yamen. Li Dagen shouted for a long time, but not many people moved.
When Wang Lidong saw this, he stretched out his palm and gently sucked it on the ground, and then a ball of soil appeared in his hand.
With a flip of his wrist, the dirt in his hand hit the heads of the people surrounding him like fairy flowers.
"Oh, it hurts. What bastard is throwing stones?"
"Oh, who is it? Who hit me on the head?"
"Which Bale smashed..."
Seeing that the person in front of him was suddenly hit, Li Dagen still didn't understand that it was Lord Lin who took action.
He hurriedly drew out his sword and started to drive people away. After a while, a path became clear.
Wang Lidong walked slowly to the door of Yahang.
I saw several people standing at the door of Yahang. Among them was an eight-foot tall man with a bald gourd on his head and a coiled dragon stick in his right hand, standing carelessly in the middle.
There was someone stepping under this man's feet, it was Jin Daya who was sent here on business.
At this time, Jin Daya was facing the ground, lying motionless, but Wang Lidong knew that he was fine and was pretending to be dead.
"This is Lord Lin, I am Qiu Guodong, a lay disciple of Southern Shaolin."
Wang Lidong glanced at this idiot with disdain, a guy who didn't know the heights of the world.
I don’t know if it’s because martial arts training has made my brain stupid, and I dare to do things like beating officials.
I really thought that Southern Shaolin could compete with the imperial court, but the shopkeeper of this tooth shop gave him the ecstasy soup.
