"Master Feng has already passed the imperial examination at a young age. If you really think that a tiger father has no dog son, I will definitely rest in peace."
Sun Liu looked calm and asked instead without answering.
"good!"
Feng Zhou smiled softly and said leisurely: "You really have some skills. It's not in vain that I took a fancy to your ability!"
"Hehe, Lord Feng must have taken a fancy to my ability!"
Sun Liu smiled bitterly. He really didn't expect that the collection of information, which he didn't care much about before, could actually bring him a lot of benefits.
"It's important for people to know themselves."
Feng Zhou nodded slightly and asked directly without any nonsense: "Have you agreed to cooperate?"
"It's not something outrageous. In order to let those kids have enough to eat, there's nothing I can't agree to!"
Sun Liu smiled lightly and said straight to the point: "I don't know about the money that Master Feng promised..."
"As long as your information is reliable, money is not a problem!" Feng Zhou said calmly. He glanced at Sun Liu, who was confused, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm just a fifth-grade chief of the Criminal Department, no one will bribe me.
Yes, I want to make money, and there are plenty of ways."
A few words calmed Sun Liu's hesitation.
It was him. Although the man opposite him was young, he was capable in both civil and military affairs and was formidable.
He was able to pass the Jinshi exam in literature, and he was able to defeat Lao Du's thugs in the east of the city with his martial arts. If such a talented person wants money, he has many ways to do it, but this is not what he could have imagined.
Feng Zhou was very satisfied with Sun Liu. It seemed that Sun Liu really had some skills. He actually found out about Zhang San's cattle theft in Hongtu Village in the suburbs so quickly.
According to his original speculation, it would definitely take time for Sun Liu to take over such a thing for the first time, and it would definitely take time to adapt and arrange it. It would take at least ten days and a half before there would be a little splash. He didn't expect the results to come out so quickly.
"It's also luck..."
Sun Liu chuckled, with a strange smile on his face, and then told the story about the real cattle-stealing scoundrel from Hongtu Village who was hanging out in Dongcheng and finally uttered the truth after drinking. Finally, he chuckled and said that he did not expect such a coincidence.
"It's a coincidence, and it's also your luck!"
Feng Zhou smiled softly. He didn't expect this result. He was very satisfied with this good start. He directly threw out a piece of fifty taels of silver. Facing Sun Liu's confused eyes, he smiled and said: "Wait for the real thief from the Punishment Department to escape."
Once the cattle thief is caught, the matter will be settled!"
This is also what should be done. As a court official, you should be cautious in everything you do. Everything must be settled before everything is over.
Although Sun Liu didn't understand these things, he was quite smart after all and could figure out these contents naturally.
Sun Liu was extremely satisfied with the money coming in, but he still asked: "Master Feng, do you want us to help arrest him?"
"It's not necessary. You just need to provide the specific location of the guy when the time comes. Let the people from the Criminal Department handle other matters to avoid unnecessary trouble!"
Feng Zhou shook his head and declined Sun Liu's kindness. At present, he was not sure whether the Ministry of Punishment had opened up the reward system for civilians. It would not be too late to make a decision after he inquired about the situation.
Besides, Sun Liu is a talented person. It is best to only provide information at the moment. It is best not to let him compete with Du Tongxuan's forces in Dongcheng for the time being.
After all, a Shuanghe Martial Arts School was enough for Sun Liu to deal with.
"Well, I won't disturb Mr. Feng. I'll take my leave now!"
Sun Liu nodded, stood up and said goodbye.
"If you come back to Xiangyun Tea House in ten days, Feng Ping will give you the last two taels of silver and the next exploration mission!"
Feng Zhou chuckled and nodded, and said directly: "I hope you don't disappoint me!"
"Is it still the price of ten taels of silver?"
Sun Liu was full of confidence. He felt that such an exploration mission was not very difficult. He was more interested in the financial benefits he could get.
With this money, he can help more beggars and unite more people.
"Start at the lowest level and increase the difficulty of the task!"
In this regard, Feng Zhou is not stingy at all. As long as the information is reliable, it is the greatest help to him...
"What? The number of officials directly under the Ministry of Justice is less than 200?"
Feng Zhou was shocked when he received this news from the person in charge, Wu Fan.
Is this still the Criminal Department, the number one judicial organ in the world? Should we be so frivolous?
I remember that when he was the head of the Jinyi Guard Hall, his staff was extremely complete and he could send out more than a hundred people at will.
But there are so few of these legendary six doors!
After getting specific information from Sun Liu, Feng Zhou went to the Yamen office the next day and started taking action. Naturally, Wu Fan, an old member of the criminal department, was indispensable for his help.
"Why, do you need anything, sir?"
Wu Fan had a premonition of something and couldn't help but asked curiously: "If your Excellency wants to mobilize these officials, there will be no problem as long as the number is not large."
"Then send five officers from the ministry!"
Since we are just catching a low-life gangster, we only need a few officials to block the road, otherwise it would be quite a troublesome thing.
If we deal with high-level gangsters in the future, we will need many people to put on a great show. Even if his martial arts skills are invincible, he can't do everything by himself!
Wu Fan did his job very neatly, and soon came back with five respectful officials. Judging from the cruel looks on their faces, it might be more reliable to say that they were robbing.
"Meet the adults!"
A group of ten officials from the Ministry of Justice greeted him respectfully and did not dare to show any slights.
"I'll take you to perform meritorious service today. You're lucky to have it happen!"
Feng Zhou was too lazy to talk nonsense and waved his hand to ask these officials to follow him. Then he personally led the team straight to Dongcheng. Under the secret guidance of Sun Liu and others, he quickly found the cattle thief and pushed him to the ground.
Tied up.
"Boy, what happened to you has happened. If you know what's going on, go to the Six Gates with me immediately!"
"It's unfair, sir..."
The boy was panic-stricken, and then he struggled and argued loudly: "I have never done such a thing at all. Sir, you can't just wrongly accuse a good person!"
"Be honest with me!"
Feng Zhou's face turned cold, and he slapped the guy in the face. He hit the guy so hard that his head tilted sideways. One of his cheeks quickly became red and swollen. A mouthful of blood with teeth spurted out, and his quibbling and yelling voices stopped.
.
Several officials from the Criminal Department who were controlling the prisoners were stunned. They were so shocked by Feng Zhou's straightforward method that they didn't even care about having a mouthful of blood sprayed on them by the prisoner.
"You are about to die, and you still dare to quibble in front of me!"
Feng Zhou sneered, pointed at this guy, and said with disdain: "You said this yourself. Why didn't you make it known to everyone after you were drunk several times? Why don't you dare to admit it now?
?”
Prisoner: "..."
The people watching: "..."
There are truly many wonders at the emperor's feet.
I have seen weird criminals. I have never seen such a weird criminal. He was so bold that he uttered the truth after drinking. Not once or twice. If this person is not unlucky, who is unlucky?
"No need to talk nonsense, just take him away and put the torture instruments in the Yamen, and he will know the consequences of sophistry!" Feng Zhou smiled coldly and waved his hands: "There are torture instruments in the six doors, and there are also ways to torture people. Why?
My only purpose is to deal with scoundrels like you! Today I will let you know that the people's hearts are as strong as iron and the law is as strong as a furnace!"
