Chapter 48 Picking up money in the open

Chonghua Street.

"There are more than 600 households in Chonghua Street. Ji Longcheng, your team is responsible for searching the households on the left side of Chonghua Street. Ye Kai, you are responsible for searching the households on the right side. We strive to search all the households in Chonghua Street before the sun goes down!"

Arriving at Chonghua Street, Lin Canglan began to give orders in an orderly manner.

"I will be waiting outside. If there is any sign of trouble, retreat immediately and shout for my support. Gu Yuanjie is a middle-stage bronze-skinned warrior. He is far beyond what you can deal with. Do you understand?"

"I understand."

The six people had solemn faces, but they were a little excited in their hearts and responded loudly.

This kind of opportunity to make extra money comes only once every few years. Even if they have to work overtime tonight, they are willing to do so.

As for the possibility of meeting Gu Yuanjie, it is simply slim.

If they find out that Gu Yuanjie is hiding in a house on Chonghua Street, and then the two sides get into a fierce battle, what they have to do is not to capture Gu Yuanjie, but to find a way to hold him back and launch a signal flare to summon a search in the surrounding streets.

The Zhenwu Guards will come to support you.

"Then let's start, search carefully and don't miss any corner." Lin Canglan said.

"yes!"

Immediately, the six people walked to both sides of Chonghua Street and knocked on the door of the household.

Lin Canglan stood on the street, taking some time to bask in the sun that had just risen.

This is the benefit of being a leader. You don’t need to do anything yourself. You only need to use your words, and the people below will implement it.

As for the benefits obtained by the two teams after the search, they would naturally give a sum to him.

Bang bang bang!

"Zhenwu Division is handling the case and open the door quickly."

Ji Longcheng and three others came to the door of the resident at No. 1 Chonghua Street and knocked on the door.

"Coming, coming."

The people in the house seemed to be always preparing for a search, and someone immediately opened the door.

The person who opened the door was a thin old man in his sixties wearing brocade clothes.

"Are the three adults here to search?" the old man greeted with a smile.

"good."

Ji Longcheng nodded and said: "Someone committed a murder yesterday and hid in the city. In order to prevent the people in the city from encountering any accidents, the Zhenwu Commandery ordered me and the Zhenwu Guards to conduct door-to-door searches to ensure the personal and property safety of the people in the city!"

Su Yu twitched the corner of his mouth. This guy was well versed in investigation. In just one sentence, he turned disturbing the people into thinking about democracy.

If it were other warriors who committed murders, the Zhenwu Division would not send out so many people to search.

Su Yu couldn't help but look around, taking in everything in the mansion.

There is a huge courtyard at the entrance, covering an area of ​​about 100 square meters. There is a pool in the middle of the courtyard, and various red and white koi carp swim in it.

There were five women in the courtyard wearing various kinds of brocade clothes. Each woman was accompanied by a maid. In addition, there were five servants wearing linen robes.

This is a very common household in Tai'an City, with a male master, a real wife, and several concubines.

Usually the head of the family traveled around and made some money when he was young, and then he was worried that the world outside would be too chaotic, so he would choose to settle in Tai'an City under the emperor's feet and live a stable life.

The more remote and remote a place is, the easier it is for people to become unruly and covet the property and wives of wealthy people.

When a rich man is old and has many concubines, it is inevitable that he will be unable to do what he wants and cannot catch the rain and dew equally. At this time, a strong, young and strong man appears, and the concubine coincides with the age of a wolf and a tiger.

You will do something that cannot be missed...

If he is just an ordinary strong man, that's fine. But if the other party is a warrior, will he have the intention to collude with his concubines to seize the rich man's property?

For various reasons, wealthy people who have made money will choose to come to Tai'an City to buy property and live there for retirement.

After all, Tai'an City is where the headquarters of the Wu Division is located in Dawei Town, and no warrior in the world dares to make trouble here.

When a wealthy gentry settles here, it is like hiring a powerful bodyguard to guard him.

"Yes, yes. Thank you for your hard work, three adults. I'll ask you to search it carefully. This is just a little thought from ordinary people."

The old man took out a purse containing scattered silver from his arms and handed it to Ji Longcheng with a very skillful and natural movement.

Seeing the money bag, Ji Longcheng's face became serious and he said righteously: "What do you mean by this? Are you trying to bribe me?"

"That's what my lord said."

The old man said: "The three adults have worked hard to ensure the safety of the people in the city. They have worked too hard and are very tired. This is a small thought from the common people. It is the tea fee for treating the three adults to some tea. I hope the three adults will not refuse."

yes."

This is a very level statement, allowing you to receive the benefits with peace of mind, and leaving you with no reason to refuse.

If I don't collect it, doesn't it mean that I don't think the search is tiring?

"It is the duty of the Zhenwu Division to protect the safety of the people of a place, but you are going too far."

Although he said that, Ji Longcheng took the money bag calmly and stuffed it into his arms.

After collecting the money, Ji Longcheng looked at the people in the yard, his tone became a little more friendly, and said: "Are all your family here?"

During the search, everyone needs to be gathered in the courtyard, and then the Zhenwu Guards enter each room to search.

Clear the house of people first to avoid accidental injuries during the Zhenwu Guard's search.

"Returning to your lord, there are a total of seventeen people in the family. This is Caomin Zhuojing. These four are the concubines accepted by Caomin. These are their respective personal maids. These five are handymen and are responsible for handling some trivial matters. There is also a cook

, I just returned home today to take care of my family’s funeral affairs, and besides that all 16 members of my family are already here..."

The old man introduced them one by one.

The rich people in Dawei are good, they can have three wives and four concubines, but I don’t know if this old guy can handle it...

Su Yu on the side couldn't help but sigh.

"Um."

Ji Longcheng nodded and said: "Everyone is waiting here. You are not allowed to move around the house until the three of us have completed the search."

Immediately, Ji Longcheng winked at Su Yu and Chen Beijiang, and then walked straight to the rooms in the backyard.

A moment of incense passed, and the three of them returned to the yard again.

Just as Chen Beijiang said, the valuable things had been hidden long ago. Although the three of them searched carefully, they found nothing.

However, the old man had already taken care of it in advance, so his trip was not in vain. Otherwise, he would have to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to search. Now that the old man has given certain benefits, the search will naturally become much gentler.

"Sir, have you finished the search?" The old man came up to us and asked with a smile.

Ji Longcheng said: "The search has been completed."

"If you have any clues about the criminal, you can also report it to the Zhenwu Division."

"Absolutely." The old man agreed.

"Walk."

After Ji Longcheng finished speaking, he took Su and Yu out of the mansion and walked to the next house.

And such a scene is taking place in every corner of Tai'an City at this moment.
