There was a reason for the delay in the arrival of the files and criminals. When the prompting failed, Gongsun Xun led Lou Gui and Wei Yue directly into the county thief Cao's public house, but they met Tian Shao and the thief Cao.
Cao was burning some paper and wooden and bamboo slips.
Gongsun Xun was stunned for a long time before he realized that these bastards in Qing Dynasty were actually corrupt people, and they were so bold as to do such a thing under his nose?!
Thinking that my mother is writing commentaries and making announcements for me, do these people really not know that they are chatting and laughing with Wang Fu and sympathetic to Tan Shihuai?!
But how come a person like me couldn't even restrain these officials?
Who gave them the courage?
Why do you really think you don’t dare to kill someone?
"Kneel down!" Gongsun Xun commanded softly with no expression on his face, as if he was asking a servant to pour water for him.
Then, when he sat directly on Cao Cao's wicker chair under the door, the two of them knelt down obediently.
"It's quite bright outside," Gongsun Xun pointed at the door of the public house and asked seriously. "It's bright and sunny outside. I'm in the lobby of the official temple in broad daylight. Tell me the truth, how could you dare to do such a thing?"
"
Wei Yue and Lou Gui looked at each other and each drew their swords.
"Because we both have a clear conscience." Following two "clangs" behind him, Tian Shao's reply was crisp and clear. "The files being burned here have nothing to do with us!"
"That's right." Thief Cao was also frightened.
"It has nothing to do with you two, but does it have to do with me?!" Gongsun Xun immediately asked angrily. "Do you think I, Gongsun Xun, am a stupid ass?"
"It does have something to do with the county monarch!" Tian Shao quickly replied in panic. "We are just afraid that the county monarch will be embarrassed!"
Gongsun Xun naturally sneered in disbelief: "Today is the first time I have entered Xiangping City in my life. How can you tell me how it has anything to do with me?"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but look at Lou Gui on the opposite side without saying anything... Yes, the matter related to his Gongsun Xun may not necessarily be caused by his Gongsun Xun, but there is him here.
The family's Anlihao and his distant brother Gongsun Yu!
"The County Lord is so wise, you probably understand it after thinking about it, right?" Tian Shao observed the words, then walked forward on his knees, approached the other party and whispered. "To be honest with the County Lord, although our Xiangping County is the capital of Liaodong, it is located in the north of Liaodong.
Xuantu County is adjacent to Goguryeo in the east, so many cases were brought by the Amway from Xuantu, Liaodong."
"Stand up," Gongsun Xun felt weak. "Then tell me in detail."
Lou Gui and Wei Yue both sheathed their swords after hearing this, and Tian Shao quickly stood up together with Cao Cao, the thief behind him, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Actually, from a logical point of view, it's not the fault of Amway... Well, County Lord
As Shaodong of Amway, do you know about the business of Dongzhu and ginseng?"
"This is natural." Gongsun Xun had an increasingly headache and could only urge him helplessly. "You can just speak up."
"Human ginseng and Dongzhu are our specialties outside the Great Wall." Tian Shao directly revealed the answer. "The discovery of this thing by the Amway is indeed helpful to the local people. However, these two things are not only easy to carry, but also extremely valuable.
And those tourists and tourists are mostly outlaws, so they often commit robberies and murders in the wilderness and wild roads..."
Gongsun Xun let out a long sigh, and even Lou Gui and Wei Yue couldn't help but look at each other.
"It's just like other places. The east side of Xiangping County is very vast, but very sparsely populated. It is hundreds of miles away from Goguryeo, so there are many unknown corpses appearing along the trails there. Such cases cannot be investigated.
I can't tell whether they are Han or Goguryeo just based on their appearance... Of course, most of them are foreign untouchables... But after all, it is a human life, and the national law is strict, so the county can only collect the corpses and set up files to suppress the thieves.
Cao here..."
"I understand." Gongsun Xun waved his hand immediately. "What about Xuantu? The ginseng and Dongzhu there should be collected directly in Xuantu County, right?"
"Money and silk are still the only things that move people's hearts." Tian Shao said, but he took out a small gadget from his arms. "Does the county gentleman recognize this thing?"
It was a so-called small silver ingot in the shape of an ingot. It was a top-grade precious metal that was often used internally to reward employees at Amway. After Gongsun Xun saw this object, he even lost the strength to speak.
"County Lord." Tian Shao lowered his voice again and explained. "Our Han Dynasty has always been short of silver. It is not only a lack of silver mines, but also a lack of good silver mines that are easy to smelt. Therefore, the few famous silver mines in the territory are like this.
Gold mines are generally under the direct jurisdiction of the Shaofu. For example, there is a rare and good silver mine at the junction of Xiangping County (Liaoyang) and Xi'an County (Dandong). However, the court has to collect it in a fixed amount, and no one else can touch it...
And the reason why your Amway has so many silver ingots is because your family collects ore from overseas! Specifically, it comes from somewhere in Buyeo, just north of Hyundo County."
"I understand what you mean." Gongsun Xun couldn't help but ask. "You just said why you don't collect ore and smelt in Xuantu, but let those who transport silver ore come to Xiangping?"
"Because smelting requires people to take care of it." Tian Shao also explained helplessly. "The mining of Guihao started when the former noble brother Gongsun Yu Gongsun was the prefect of Xuantu. I even heard people say that
That silver mine came to Guihao's attention more than ten years ago when he sent troops to help the Fuyu people resist the Goguryeo people... Later, he left office and came to Xiangping to buy property and set up a household, and Guihao's silver smelting site also followed from Xuanxuan.
Tu came to Xiangping."
Gongsun Xun was completely speechless.
"Actually, you don't have to worry about the county." Tian Shao finally consoled him after seeing this. "Making money from the Fuyu people and collecting ginseng from Goguryeo are both things where the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. If it really stops, the people in the county will not be willing...
The main reason for this matter is that our Liaodong area is vast and sparsely populated, and is surrounded by border counties, Goguryeo, Fuyu, Xianbei, Wuhuan, and three Koreas. The barbarians in the border areas do not cultivate virtue, and there are even wars from time to time. This is why there is some
Law and order disturbance."
Gongsun Xun nodded slightly to show his approval, and then suddenly asked: "How many cases are there exactly?"
Tian Shao turned back to look at the thief Cao, who was under the sect, and the thief Cao hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "There are about a hundred headless case files accumulated, and there are five or six prisoners who have been captured with conclusive evidence."
Gongsun Xun couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief: "These cases accumulated over more than ten years are quite ordinary..."
Thief Cao lowered his head and said nothing.
Gongsun's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately asked again: "How many years did you save these hundreds of cases?"
"Two and a half years." Thief Cao lowered his head and said. "This kind of case must be cleared up every time the county magistrate takes office. The previous county magistrate happened to be in charge of this county for two and a half years!"
Gongsun Xun was silent.
"In this case, should we burn the files?" Tian Shao asked tentatively upon seeing this. "I was just afraid that the county prince was young and energetic and would not look good, so I took it upon myself to make my own decision..."
"No need to burn it." Gongsun Xun waved his hand helplessly. "Send all these cases related to silver, dongzhu, and ginseng to my residence behind the official temple... I will take a look at it tonight!"
Afraid of saving face, you should burn it secretly and slowly, right?
Tian Shao and Cao Cao, the thief under his disciples, were sarcastic in their hearts, but they were speechless.
However, no matter what, after this incident, Gongsun Xun's arrogance when he first arrived was more or less reduced by three points. He just lowered his head and carefully cleaned up the remaining case files and detainees all day long. In just a few days, he just caught one case.
He made a mistake and demoted the thief Cao Cao to become the head of the pavilion, but also gave him some financial rewards to appease him.
How should I put it? These days, his understanding of Han laws has become a little better.
A few days later, he even visited the prefect Gao Yangao and his brother Gongsunyu from a distant clan who were very different in age as promised. Everything went smoothly.
The former is indeed as weak as the rumors say. After listening to Gongsun Xun talk about some things about the eunuchs in Luozhong, he turned pale and couldn't control himself. On the contrary, the officials in the county came after him to show his kindness;
, Geng Jian is indeed a member of the same clan, and the interests are related, so his words are quite inclusive and look at each other, so Gongsun Xun can just look for him when he encounters difficulties!
How should I put it? It is a purely good thing that the two older people in this city behave like this.
The only problem was that Zhang Jian, who was teaching in the school, for some reason, this former pioneer in punishing eunuchs, had a world-wide reputation, but when he saw the famous assassin handed over by Gongsun Xun, he just excused himself and refused to meet him.
In this regard, Gongsun Xun was not very angry even though he had no idea... because he understood the other party very well.
After going through so many things, being away from home for so many years, losing his family, and implicating so many people, Zhang Jian has been living quietly until now. Regardless of whether he is still proud or feels ashamed early on, any thoughts he has are actually normal.
And judging from the fact that he is still willing to teach in the school he built, this celebrity probably has no ill intentions towards him. This is already good, and there is no need to pursue the rest.
After visiting these three people, Gongsun Xun has truly completed the normal process of a newly appointed official. However, at this time, the autumn harvest is also coming.
You must know that spring plowing and autumn harvest are the two most important fundamental events in this feudal era, so he didn't have time to think too much, so he began to patrol various villages with his horse to supervise the autumn harvest. He was also very busy for a while... But on one of the days
, when Gongsun Xun was inspecting a certain village under his rule, he suddenly saw someone rushing to report that the family members of the county king had arrived in Xiangping from western Liaoning, and they had actually reached the Daliao River in front of them.
Gongsun Xun was so surprised that he couldn't help but ask a few more questions... Sure enough, not only Zhao Yun and others, but also his mother came over in person, so he immediately got up and went to the Daliao River to greet them.
