National Art: Opening Golden Bell Jar

Several knights rushed over quickly, and the Tian family disciples let out a sigh of relief after seeing them.

The guy with the highest cultivation level among the eight was actually the middle-level martial artist who fled halfway and didn't dare to take the call.

I don't know what kind of self-confidence these eight people have. There are only three beginner and intermediate warriors in total, so they rushed here arrogantly.

The mid-level martial artist didn't feel embarrassed. He walked up to the bright black sign in front of him and said in a deep voice, "I am the head of the guard of the Qingning Mansion. I heard that a liar has appeared in Zhige County. Came here to investigate."

"Liar?" Tian Yangyi sneered, "Then you go to check your liar, what are you doing here?"

"This place is where the liars are," the middle-level martial artist said coldly, "It is said that the useless talc was purchased at a high price with silver dollars... Dare to ask why?"

"Is there something wrong with you?" someone in the crowd shouted, "If you are willing to buy, you are willing to sell, it's none of your business!"

The middle-level martial artist sneered, "If someone has accumulated a lot of talc and took the opportunity to sell it at a low price, after people bought the talc, they found that no one received the goods... Is this a liar?"

This answer is logically correct, and in detail, it is considered a relatively clever method of fraud.

But the problem is that this means doesn't work here.

Just like before, someone hid in the crowd and laughed loudly, "Aren't you stupid? This place is near Zhige Mountain. As long as you work hard, there are countless talcs. Who will buy talc to sell?"

The middle-level martial artist didn't change his face when he heard this, but instead glanced around a few times, "Rat, there are people who don't hide their heads and hide their brains, come out and talk!"

No one stood up to speak, but there were boos and loud jeers.

Obviously, everyone is not afraid of him, but thinks it is interesting to tease the official poor like this.

The middle-level martial artist is well-informed and ignores these boring guys - in fact, the force value of their group is not enough to support them to act recklessly.

So he looked directly at Chen Yang. This man's short hair was so recognizable, "Are you the one who bought the talc?"

Chen Yang ignored him at all, but took out a cigarette and lit it slowly. If Tian Yangli couldn't even handle this kind of situation, it would be really useless for him to make such a stab just now.

Sure enough, the Tian family elder said, "I won't say anything else, who said there are liars here?"

A mid-level martial artist can ignore other people's words, but he can't ignore this person - this is from a high-level martial artist. "The informant is protected by the law. What do you mean by asking this question?"

"You just want to embarrass a high-level martial artist without an informant to testify?" Tian Yangyi sneered, "Do you think that our high-level martial arts are all weak and easy to bully?"

"I have the official document from the government office," the middle-level martial artist replied without showing weakness, "Could it be that you guys want to rebel?"

As he spoke, he took out a paper bag from his arms and shook it in his hand with a proud look on his face.

Then he looked at Chen Yang again, "You are obviously a foreigner with your hairstyle and clothes, do you have an identity plate?"

"It's none of your business if you have an identity plate!" Lang Zhen came over and said coldly, "When will the people from the government office be responsible for checking their identities? You should go to the county government to call people."

It is said that he is only a beginner martial artist, so the other party should not care, but when the intermediate martial artist saw him, his expression suddenly changed, "Lone wolf? You are indeed here."

"Don't get involved in friendship, I don't know you," Lang Zhen stretched out one arm and waved it casually, not caring about the other's cultivation and identity, "However, I don't mind letting you know me again... I'm embarrassed My boss, let’s go over my level first.”

Obviously, the middle-level martial artist knows how difficult it is to be a lone wolf, especially since he is surrounded by many people. At a glance, there are at least a dozen or eight martial artists, including at least two high-level martial artists. .

Therefore, even if he holds the official document of the government office in his hand, he does not dare to anger the other party too much.

He could only look at Chen Yang, and said coldly, "Don't mention the fraud in advance, you killed someone just now, isn't that right?"

"That's right," Chen Yang nodded, and said impatiently, "I killed someone, it's a personal grudge... Do you have an opinion?"

"Hehe," the middle-ranked martial artist sneered, "The law of the East is that killing people pays their lives, you don't know that, do you?"

Murder for life is indeed the law of the East, but it is only a middle line, which can fluctuate up and down. When deciding a case, it also depends on the specific situation.

If the murderer is revenge by blood relatives, it is normal to be found not guilty, and even the fine may be saved.

But the murderer wanted to rebel and killed the insider, even if he had no actual rebellion, it would not be surprising to be sentenced to the Nine Clans.

"I killed someone from Miaoshou Pavilion," Chen Yang replied slowly, "They wanted to murder me, I captured him, and wanted to communicate with Miaoshou Pavilion, but they ignored me, so I had no choice but to behead him in public. To serve as an example to others."

Don't say, the reason he said is really good. If he is found to be reliable, he will be exempted from the death penalty if he pays a fine.

"Really?" The middle-level martial artist sneered, "There is no evidence, let me go to the government office."

"Wang San, get the hell out of me!" Someone shouted, "Kill your life for your life... Why is it okay if you killed your widowed sister-in-law?"

When the middle-level martial artist heard the words, his expression changed, and when he turned his head, his expression changed again, "Hehe, it turned out to be Manager Mi, from Yuanguangfu, why did you come to Qingning? Son... be punished!"

"Fuck off!" Shopkeeper Mi waved his hand mercilessly, "It makes sense for you to kill someone in the middle of the city, but is it a crime for someone else to kill a thief from the Miaoshou Pavilion in a corner?"

The middle-level martial artist also knew that the other party was not easy to provoke, but he still dared to say, "My innocence was sentenced by the government office. This person murdered in front of the official messenger... Shouldn't he go to the government office?"

"When you were sentenced, you were hiding," Manager Mi replied coldly, "Have you ever been to the government office?"

Chen Yang's hearing was a bit eye-opening. In this plane, there is also a trial in absentia?

The most shocking thing is... can you still be acquitted of murder in absentia?

The middle-level martial artist was a little bit poor for a while, he was stunned for a moment, and then he said ruthlessly, "I must bring this person to justice today, why... Is anyone not convinced?"

"If you have something, try it out," Lang Zhen sneered, "Paralyzed, Zhige Mountain is so big, a few people die, throw it into the ravine... Who can find it?"

When the middle-level martial artist heard this, his face immediately turned pale. .

Chapter 354

Lang Zhen's words are not considered intimidation. There are really not too many examples of officials who did evil and were directly killed.

What is meant by "the imperial power cannot be subordinate to the county"?That's it, in the area below the county, the aristocratic family has a lot of right to speak.

Many families can directly decide the life and death of their own children, and even the life and death of their neighbors, they can also forcibly decide.

If the official is sent down, if it is absolutely necessary, the people below are still willing to flatter them, but if they do too much, the people below will kill people and hide the body, and it may not necessarily happen.

If the authorities insist on pursuing it, if the local people are turned against, whose fault is it?

On the face of the mid-level martial artist, the blue, red, white and purple changed for a while, and then he looked around again, and finally turned his horse's head and galloped away angrily.

But before leaving, he still gritted his teeth and slammed the famous saying of the big gray wolf, "I will be back!"

In return for his words, there were boos and whistles.

Seeing the few riders walking away, Chen Yang cupped his hands at Mi's family and said with a smile, "Thank you, Shopkeeper Mi, for your righteous words."

Shopkeeper Mi was the high-level martial artist. He arrived in a hurry with two companions.

For Chen Yang's thanks, he waved his hand indifferently, and then said quickly, "I wonder if Mr. Chen is free at the moment, I want to have a private chat."

Chen Yang's attitude towards the Mi family has always been lukewarm, but the other party has just helped him out - although he doesn't mind wrestling with the people from Fucheng, but it can save a little trouble, of course it will be less troublesome it is good.

So he invited the shopkeeper Mi into his small courtyard for a detailed discussion, and even invited people into the living room.

There are not too many sensitive things in his living room, but generally speaking, he rarely invites people to sit in and chat.

He believes that this is not intentional, but that there are too many things in his own rooms that cannot be seen, and he must not let others come in and out casually.

Since this is the case, he has to curb this ethos from the source, so the first thing to do is, of course, not to entertain people at will in the living room, so as not to be difficult to control after others get used to it.

As for doing so, it may leave an impression of arrogance on people, Chen Yang can't care so much, for him, the most important thing is to establish and maintain the rules.

But this time, he felt that the other party should have something important to discuss with him, so he invited someone into the living room.

Shopkeeper Mi didn't have much contact with him, but if he inquired casually outside, he knew how difficult it was to get into Chen Yang's room.

So he was really flattered, but fortunately, this time he did bring important news.

The Mi family was in business, and the base camp was in Yuanguang Mansion, but it also radiated to the surrounding area. The connections in Qingning Mansion were quite strong, otherwise, they would not have come here immediately after the assassination of Soul Reaper.

Because Chen Yang refused to accept the 100 taels of gold from the Mi family, they have recently been looking around to learn about the various industries of the Gu family in Yangshan.

In fact, the vast majority of Gu family's industries are not difficult to inquire about. The serious thing is that these industries usually publicly use the banner of the Gu family, so that some people who are not open to eyes will know early: It's good for everyone to do business honestly, and don't worry about those who shouldn't.

However, it is impossible for the Mi family to inquire about the news in such a careless way. If they want to repay Chen Yang's endeavour, they must inquire in detail.

They need to know the location, scale, profitability, profit and other content of each industry, and they also need to inquire about the person in charge, the protection force, and even the preferences, social relations, etc. of relevant people...

In short, the Mi family wants to make a summary of the information of the Gu family's property and hand it over to Chen Yang. Naturally, the more detailed the better.

During such an investigation, someone discovered that in Xiyin City, the Gu family's rice shop had been in frequent contact with the county soldiers and the prefect's yamen, and recently entered the prefect's house.

Then there was news from the government office that the Gu family was willing to give out some of the money and food to reward the army, and the prefect was very happy.

The spontaneous labor of the people is a typical positive energy. Usually, at the beginning of the year, the government has to convene the local big households, understand them with emotion and reason, and sometimes resort to threats and intimidation. How many points of edge out.

As a big family with innate talent, the Gu family in Yangshan doesn't care about such coercion and lure at all-the reward for the army at the end of each year is 100 silver dollars, ten shi grains and two pigs. .

This time, the Gu family took the initiative to recruit the army in advance, and the prefect was very happy: as a major force in Qingning House, the Gu family's move has played a good leading role in everyone.

The Mi family came from a business background, and knew very well that there was no love for no reason in this world. The Gu family acted like this because they wanted something, so they increased their inquiries.

In fact, all kinds of news in the government office are not difficult to inquire about. A lot of silver dollars are scattered, and some people are scrambling to leak the secrets - taking official news and making a little money for their own family, this is too cost-effective.

So the Mi family finally learned that the Gu family reported to the prefect that Zhige County had recently gathered a group of liars who were trying to make up the Gu family's ideas, hoping that the government would come forward to punish the wicked, and the Qingning residence would be clear.

After Mi's family got the news, in order to confirm the accuracy of the news, they even verified it - if they passed false news to Chen Yang, it would be embarrassing to throw it at grandma's house.

However, just because they wanted to verify, they were half a beat, and they were still half a step behind the government.

The Mi family could have imagined that the prefect would agree to the Gu family's request, but it was a bit unexpected to act so quickly.

In short, Manager Mi and his party came back a little late, but he pointed out the main messenger behind the scenes: Yangshan Gu Family!

After Chen Yang heard this, he lit a cigarette: Use the government to suppress me?The big family really has the way of the big family.

He is not surprised by this situation, it is nothing more than the collusion between the government and businessmen to get what they need. In the earth world, this kind of thing is so common.

But the Gu family, a family that has survived for thousands of years, can make such a move, and this trick naturally has merit.

Chen Yang smoked half a cigarette before asking aloud, "I killed the Gu family in Miaoshou Pavilion, will there be any problems...?"

Do you regret it now?Shopkeeper Mi felt a little emotional: After all, he is young and vigorous!

But in the end, this is not a big deal, he replied in a deep voice, "Don't worry about this, the Miaoshou Pavilion is suppressed by the government, as long as you have solid evidence, the prefect can't say anything. overturn the conclusion."

However, after a pause, he added, "Actually, sometimes the government is not so reasonable. It's best if you ask the Tian family to provide more money and labor, so that you can justify it... It's a pity that my Mi family is Yuan Guang. The government, it is not easy to contribute to this matter.”

The Mi family has a semicolon in Qingning Mansion, but obviously, as a foreign office, it can only symbolically provide some wealth and goods to suit the situation, and it is impossible to spend a lot of money on the army.

"This is really..." Chen Yang felt a little speechless, is it the Jin Yuanzheng of another world?

If the Tian family wants to work hard, of course, he has to come out with the bulk of the wealth. The husband does everything alone, and it is impossible for him to make excessive demands on his partners.

But after thinking about it, a sneer appeared on the corner of Chen Yang's mouth, "' . Interesting, does the Gu family really want to compete with me for more money?"

The Gu family in Qingning Mansion is one of the best in existence. Because of the innate talent, not only the force value is extremely strong, but also the wealth has reached an eye-popping level.
